Section 2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans. (a) Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit
Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by
telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any

conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its
Applicable Percentage under the applicable Facility of the applicable Term A Loans, Revolving Credit Loans, Incremental Term Loans or Additional Facility Loans, if any, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the
Company, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Term Borrowing or a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Appropriate
Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than (i) one hour after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent on the

of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (and, (x) if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 5.01, (y) if such Borrowing is the Incremental Term Borrowing, the applicable conditions

in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Company; provided, however, that if, on the date a Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Revolving Credit
Borrowing is given by the Company, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to the
Company as provided above. 
  

 43 








 (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or
converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, the Administrative Agent may notify the Company that Loans may only be converted into or continued as Loans of certain specified
Types and, thereafter, until no Default shall continue to exist, Loans may not be converted into or continued as Loans of any Type other than one or more of such specified Types.

Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than 12 Interest Periods in effect in respect of the

Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Company may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of

 45 








 (iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer
would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 

(v) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no

least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the
case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be
a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full
text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter
of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed

issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. 
  

 46 








 (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C
Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Company and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent
with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable
Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the
account of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each
Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving
Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
 (iii)

payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Company shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Company fails
to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. In such event, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the
Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the
conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if
immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
  


 47

Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount
not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed
to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer. 

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so
refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this
Section 2.03. 
 (iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C
Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the
account of the L/C Issuer. 
 (v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans
to the Company or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any
other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than delivery by the Company of a Committed Loan Notice ). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C
Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer
any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c)  

 

 48 








 
by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with
interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C
Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this
Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if
the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto
by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such
Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned
by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement.

 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter
of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Company or any
Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom 
  


 49 








 
any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such
Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 
 (iii) any
draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in
the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 

(iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does
not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors,
liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 

The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event
of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or other irregularity, the Company will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Company shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its
correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Company agree
that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or
inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent,
participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as
applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or
Issuer Document. The Company hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not,
preclude 
  

 50 








 
the Company’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent,
any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e);
provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Company, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any
direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company which the Company proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter
of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept
documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any
instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 

(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial
drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Company shall, in each case,
immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. Section 2.04 and Section 8.02 set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this
Section 2.03, Section 2.04 and Section 8.02, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as collateral
for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term
have corresponding meanings. The Company hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing.
Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other
than the Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Company will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as
additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines
to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, to reimburse the L/C Issuer.

  

 51 








 (h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer
and the Company when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP, as most
recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. 

(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in
accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage a Letter of Credit Fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be
(A) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (B) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of
Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the
Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Revolving Lenders, while any Event of Default exists,
all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
 (j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges
Payable to L/C Issuer. The Company shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter or Toronto Dominion Fee Letter,
computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect
of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on
demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition, the Company shall pay directly to
the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees
and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
 (k) Conflict with Issuer
Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 

(l) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in
support of any obligations of, or is 
  

 52 








 
for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that
the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

Section 2.04 Prepayments. 

(a) Optional. (i) The Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily
prepay Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (I) three Business Days prior to any
date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (II) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (B) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and
(C) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify
the date and amount of such prepayment, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of a prepayment of Term Loans, the amount of such prepayment to be applied to each Term Facility. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender
of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility). If such notice is given by the Company, the
Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid,
together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each prepayment of the outstanding Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(i) shall be applied (x) to the Facility or Facilities specified by the
Company in the related notice of prepayment and (y) within each Facility or Facilities to be prepaid, to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro-rata basis, and each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with
their respective Applicable Percentages in respect of each of the relevant Facilities; 
 (ii) Notwithstanding
anything in the preceding clause (i) to the contrary, (A) the Incremental B-2 Extended Term Facility shall not be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) prior to the Incremental B Term Facility without the prior written
consent of each Incremental B Term Lenders and (II) the Incremental B Term Lenders may be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) prior to the Incremental B-2 Extended Term Lenders and, for the avoidance of doubt, prepayments pursuant
to this Section 2.04(a) may be made on a pro rata basis to both the Incremental B Term Facility and the Incremental B-2 Extended Term Facility in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages in respect of each of the relevant
Facilities and (B) in the case of any other Term Facility, (I) any Extended Facility shall not be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) prior to any pre-existing Facility of the same Facility Type with a Maturity Date
earlier than such Extended Facility (each a “Prior Facility”) without the prior written 
  

 53 








 
consent of each Lender party to such Prior Facility (each, a “Prior Facility Lender”) and (II) the Prior Facility Lenders may be prepaid pursuant to this
Section 2.04(a) prior to the Lenders under such Extended Facility and, for the avoidance of doubt, prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) may be made on a pro rata basis to both the Prior Facilities and such Extended
Facility in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages in respect of each of the relevant Facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayments to the Revolving Credit Facility (which includes any Extended Facility or Additional
Facility constituting a Revolving Credit Facility) pursuant to this Section 2.04(a) shall be made on a pro-rata basis to all of the Lenders party thereto. 

(b) Mandatory. (i) If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (A) Disposes of any property (other than any
deemed Disposition referred to in Section 7.08(c)) or (B) suffers an Event of Loss, in each case, which results in the realization by such Person of Net Cash Proceeds, the Company shall prepay, immediately upon receipt thereof by
such Person, an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds which, in the aggregate with any other Net Cash Proceeds described in this Section 2.04(b)(i) that have not been used to prepay the Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.04(b)(i) or reinvested pursuant to the proviso set forth below, exceeds $50,000,000; provided, however, that, with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds described in this
Section 2.04(b)(i), at the election of the Company (as notified by the Company to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds), and so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the
Company or such Restricted Subsidiary may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in operating assets so long as within 365 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, such reinvestment shall have been consummated (as certified
by the Company in writing to the Administrative Agent); and provided further, however, that any Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested shall be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in this Section
2.04(b)(i). 
 (ii) Upon the incurrence or issuance by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
any Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.12), the Company shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received
therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary. 
 (iii) Upon an
increase of the Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A-1 Loans, or both, in accordance with Section 2.13 or upon the establishment of the Incremental Term Facility in accordance with Section 2.14, the Company shall immediately
prepay, in full, the Outstanding Amount of all Term A-2 Loans together with all accrued but unpaid interest to the date of such prepayment. 

(iv) Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(b) (other than
pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 2.04(b)) shall be applied, first, ratably to each of the Term Facilities and 

 

 54 








 
to the principal repayment installments thereof on a pro-rata basis and, second, to the Revolving Credit Facility in the manner set forth in clause (vii) of this
Section 2.04(b). 
 (v) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of clause (i) or
(ii) of this Section 2.04(b), so long as no Default under Section 8.01(b), Section 8.01(g) or Section 8.01(h), or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if, on any date on which a
prepayment would otherwise be required to be made pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.04(b), the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds required by such clause to be applied to prepay Loans on such date is less than
or equal to $50,000,000, the Company may defer such prepayment until the first date on which the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds or other amounts otherwise required under clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.04(b) to be
applied to prepay Loans exceeds $50,000,000. During such deferral period the Company may apply all or any part of such aggregate amount to prepay Revolving Credit Loans and may, subject to the fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article V, reborrow such amounts (which amounts, to the extent originally constituting Net Cash Proceeds, shall be deemed to retain their original character as Net Cash Proceeds when so reborrowed) for application as required by this
Section 2.04(b). Upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 8.01(b), Section 8.01(g) or Section 8.01(h), or an Event of Default during any such deferral period, the Company shall immediately prepay
the Loans in the amount of all Net Cash Proceeds received by the Company and other amounts, as applicable, that are required to be applied to prepay Loans under this Section 2.04(b) (without giving effect to the first and second
sentences of this clause (v)) but which have not previously been so applied. 
 (vi) If for any reason the Total
Revolving Credit Outstandings at any time exceed the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Company shall immediately prepay Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Borrowings and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (other than the L/C Borrowings)
in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 
 (vii) Prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility made pursuant
to this Section 2.04(b), first, shall be applied ratably to the L/C Borrowings, second, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, and, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the
remaining L/C Obligations; and, in the case of prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility required pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.04(b), the amount remaining, if any, after the prepayment in full of all L/C
Borrowings and Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at such time and the Cash Collateralization of the remaining L/C Obligations in full (the sum of such prepayment amounts, cash collateralization amounts and remaining amount being, collectively, the
“Reduction Amount”) may be retained by the Company for use in the ordinary course of its business. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied
(without any further action by or notice to or from the Company or any other Loan Party) to reimburse the L/C Issuer or the Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable. 

 

 55 








 Section 2.05 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) Optional.
The Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Revolving Credit Facility or the Letter of Credit Sublimit, or from time to time permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Facility or the Letter of Credit Sublimit;
provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate
amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce (A) the Revolving Credit Facility if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder,
the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, or (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would
exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; provided further that (i) the Company may terminate or reduce separately (I) any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not constituting an Extended Revolving Credit Facility and (II)
any Extended Revolving Credit Facility as specified in their notice and (ii) no Extended Revolving Credit Facility may be terminated or reduced pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) prior to the termination of each portion of the
Revolving Credit Facility with an earlier Maturity Date without the prior written consent of each Revolving Credit Lender under each such portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. 

(b) Mandatory. (i) The aggregate Term A-1 Commitments and Term A-2 Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced
to zero on the date of the Term A-1 Borrowing and Term A-2 Borrowing, respectively. Upon the occurrence of the Maturity Date applicable to any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolving Credit Commitments applicable to such portion
shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on such date. 
 (ii) If after giving effect to any
reduction or termination of Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section 2.05, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the
amount of such excess. 
 (c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will
promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Revolving Credit Commitment under this Section 2.05. Upon any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, unless otherwise permitted
under this Section 2.05, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such reduction amount. All fees in respect of the Revolving Credit
Facility accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. In connection with the termination or reduction of any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility
pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Company shall prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Advances of the Revolving 

 

 56 








 
Credit Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitments have been so terminated or reduced to the extent necessary such that the Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Advances of each Revolving Credit Lender
shall not exceed its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Advances after giving effect to such termination or reduction. 

Section 2.06 Repayment of Loans. (a) Term A-1 Loans. The Company shall repay to the Term A-1 Lenders the
aggregate principal amount of all Term A-1 Loans outstanding on the following dates in the respective amounts set forth opposite such dates based upon the specified percentage of the Original Principal Amount of the Term A-1 Facility (which amounts
shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.04):

 provided, however, that
the final principal repayment installment of the Term A-1 Loans shall be repaid on the Maturity Date for the Term A-1 Facility and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Term A-1 Loans outstanding on such
date; and provided further, that with the prior written consent of the Term A Lenders holding at least 10% of the outstanding Term A Loans, such consenting Term A Lenders can extend the amortization schedule and the maturity of their
Term A Loans as agreed upon among such consenting Term A Lenders and the Company (with the new 
  

 57 








 
amortization schedule and Maturity Date thereafter applying to such Term A Loans), and the Company may pay an extension fee to, and as agreed with, such consenting Term A Lenders with respect to
such extension, without having any obligation to make any additional payments with respect to such extension to non-consenting Term A Lenders, all as further described in the applicable Extended Facility Agreement. 

(b) Term A-2 Loans. The Company shall repay to the Term A-2 Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Term A-2 Loans
outstanding in twenty-five (25) consecutive quarterly installments which except for the final installment shall be due on the last day of each March, June, September and December, beginning with March 31, 2006. Subject to adjustment in
connection with prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.04, each of the first twenty-four (24) installments shall be in the principal amount equal to 0.25% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Term A-2 Loan and the final
principal repayment installment of the Term A-2 Loans, due on the Maturity Date for the Term A-2 Facility, shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Term A-2 Loans outstanding on such date. 

(c) Revolving Credit Loans. The Company shall repay to the Revolving Credit Lenders on the applicable Maturity Date for the
Revolving Credit Facility the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans with such Maturity Date outstanding on such date; provided, that with the prior written consent of the Revolving Credit Lenders holding at least 10% of the
Revolving Credit Loans, such consenting Revolving Credit Lenders can extend the maturity of their Revolving Credit Loans as agreed upon among such consenting Revolving Credit Lenders and the Company (with such new Maturity Date thereafter applying
to such Revolving Loans), and the Company may pay an extension fee to, and as agreed with, such Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to such extension without having any obligation to make any additional payments with respect to such extension to
non-consenting Revolving Credit Lenders, all as further described in the applicable Extended Facility Agreement. 
 (d)
Additional Facility Loans. The Company shall repay to the Additional Facility Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Additional Facility Loans held by such Lender in the installments and on the Maturity Date set forth in the applicable
Additional Facility Agreement pursuant to which such Loans were made. 
 (e) Extended Facility Loans. The Company shall
repay to the Extended Facility Lenders under an Extended Incremental Term Facility or Extended Term A Facility the aggregate principal amount of all Extended Facility Loans held by such Lender in the installments and on the Maturity Date set forth
in the applicable Extended Facility Agreement pursuant to which such Loans were extended. 
 Section 2.07 Interest.
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07(b), (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the
Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for such Facility; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan under a Facility shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per
annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for such Facility. 
  

 58 








 (b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to
any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Laws. 
 (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Company under any Loan
Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of (x) in the case of any amount payable only to the Revolving Credit Lenders and/or
the Term A Lenders, the Required Revolver/Term A Lenders and (y) in the case of any other amount, the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 
 (iii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts
(including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and
payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after
the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 Section 2.08 Fees. In addition to certain fees
described in Section 2.03(i) and (j): 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit
Facility exceeds the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings, at the rate equal to, (i) on any day on which the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings is less than or equal to the product of one-third (1/3) times the Revolving Credit Commitment,
0.50% per annum, (ii) on any day on which the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings is less than or equal to the product of two-thirds (2/3) but greater than one-third (1/3) times the Total Revolving Credit Commitment,
0.375% per annum, and (iii) on any day on which the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings is greater than the product of two-thirds (2/3) times the Revolving Credit, 0.25% per annum. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times
during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article V is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period for the Revolving Credit Facility. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears. 

 

 59 








 (b) Other Fees. (i) The Company shall pay to the Initial Lenders for their own
respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Facility Fee Letter. Such fees shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

(ii) The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer for their own respective accounts
fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter or Toronto Dominion Fee Letter, as applicable. Such fees shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

(iii) The Company shall pay to the Lenders (or the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders) such fees as shall have
been separately agreed upon in writing, to the Lenders and in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

Section 2.09 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is
determined by Bank of America’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day
year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a
Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

Section 2.10 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts
or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the
Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Company and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount
owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall
evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

  

 60 








 (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.10(a), each
Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

Section 2.11 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. (a) General. All payments to be made by
the Company shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Company hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly
distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments
received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Company shall come due on a day other
than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. In such event, if a
Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Company severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in
immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be
made by 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, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Company, the
interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Company 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 the Company the amount of such
interest paid by the Company for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the 

 

 61 








 
amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Company shall be without prejudice to any claim the Company may have against a Lender that
shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) Payments by Company; Presumptions
by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the
Company will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as
the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Company has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand
the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative
Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Company with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall
be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to
the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Company by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the
applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without
interest. 
 (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and
Revolving Credit Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any
payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its
Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(c). 
 (e) Funding Source.
Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular
place or manner. 
  

 62 








 (f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled
thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties. 
 Section 2.12 Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of (a) Obligations in respect of any of the Facilities due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect
of such Facilities due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of such Facilities due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations in respect of any of such Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its
ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations in respect of such Facilities owing (but not due
and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Parties at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations in respect of the Facilities owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and
subparticipations in L/C Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations
in respect of the Facilities then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that: 

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Company pursuant
to and in accordance with the express terms of this Credit Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations to any
assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 
  

 63 








 Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so
under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 2.13 Increase in Commitments.
(a) Request for Increase. Provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or would result therefrom, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which, if all Lenders under the specified Facility are being
requested, shall promptly notify the Revolving Credit Lenders and Term A Lenders, as applicable and, if less than all Lenders under the specified Facility are being requested, each individual Lender being requested), the Company may, from time to
time, request one or more Lenders to increase their portion of the Revolving Credit Facility or Term A Loans, or both; provided that (i) any such request for an increase in the Revolving Credit Facility or the Term A Facility, in each
case, shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, (ii) no increase may be made to (A) any portion of the Revolving Credit Facility with a Maturity Date earlier than any other portion of the Revolving Credit Facility or (B) any Term A
Facility with a Maturity Date earlier than any other existing Term A Facility and (iii) the amount of such increase, together with the aggregate amount of all undrawn Commitments and outstanding Loans under all Facilities (after giving effect
to any repayment of Loans and reduction of Commitments to be made with the proceeds of such increase on the date of such increase or as evidenced by an irrevocable notice delivered on such date in the manner set forth in Section 2.04(a)
or Section 2.05(a), as applicable) shall not exceed $5,233,000,000; provided that, in no event shall the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans at any time exceed $5,233,000,000. At the time of sending such notice, the Company (in
consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Revolving Credit Lender and each Term A Lender, as applicable, is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) Business Days from
the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders by the Administrative Agent). 
 (b) Lender Elections to Increase.
Each requested Revolving Credit Lender and Term A Lender, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A Commitment, as
applicable, and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than, (i) in the case of a Revolving Credit Lender, its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of such requested increase and (ii) in the case of a Term A Lender,
its ratable portion (based on such Term A Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the Term A Facility) of such requested increase. Any requested Revolving Credit Lender and Term A Lender, as applicable, not responding within such
time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment and Term A Loans, as applicable. 
 (c)
Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and, if more than one Lender in the applicable Facility has been requested, each requested Revolving Credit Lender and Term A Lender,
as applicable, of the requested Revolving Credit Lenders’ and Term A 
  

 64 








 
Lenders’ responses, as applicable, to each request made hereunder. If the aggregate increase participated in by the existing Lender(s) is less than the requested increase, then to achieve
the full amount of the requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and, in the case of an increase in the Revolving Credit Facility, the L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Company may
also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Revolving Credit Lenders or Term A Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to a joinder agreement substantially in the form attached as Exhibit L hereto or otherwise in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. 
 (d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Revolving Credit
Facility or Term A Loans, or both, are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Revolving Credit Lenders and Term A Lenders, including the proposed new lenders, as applicable, in writing of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date
and shall provide to such parties a revised Schedule 2.01 reflecting the final allocation of such increase. 
 (e)
Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each
increasing Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) in the case of the Company, certifying that,
before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article VI and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such
representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.13, the representations and warranties contained in
subsections (a) and (b) of Section 6.04 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (b) and (a), respectively, of Section 7.01, and (B) no Default exists or would
result from such increase. In the event of an increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment in accordance with this Section, on the Increase Effective Date, the Company shall borrow Revolving Credit Loans and prepay any outstanding Revolving Credit
Loans from each Revolving Credit Lender (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans ratable amongst the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance
with their respective revised Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments under this Section. In the event of an increase in the Term A Loans in accordance with this Section, the
Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a Committed Loan Notice on the Increase Effective Date requesting the additional Term A Loans (and notwithstanding anything in Section 2.02 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall only
notify the Term A Lenders participating in such additional Loans of such request) and the Term A Lenders participating therein shall provide such Loans pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 2.02. 

 

 65 








 (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Sections 2.12 or 5.01 to the contrary. 
 Section 2.14 Incremental Term Facility. (a) Request
for Incremental Term Facility. Provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or would result therefrom, at the option of the Company, the Incremental Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and without the
consent of any other Lender, a separate tranche of commitments and loans may be established under this Credit Agreement in an amount not exceeding the Commitment Increase Threshold minus the aggregate amount of any increase in the Revolving
Credit Facility and Term A-1 Loans in accordance with Section 2.13; provided that any such request for an Incremental Term Facility shall be in a minimum amount of $400,000,000 minus the aggregate amount of any increase in
the Revolving Credit Facility and Term A-1 Loans in accordance with Section 2.13. 
 (b) Conditions to
Effectiveness of Incremental Term Facility. As a condition precedent to the establishment of such Incremental Term Facility, the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Term Lenders shall enter into a supplement to this Agreement
in substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (the “Incremental Term Supplement”) duly completed such that the Incremental Term Supplement shall set forth the terms and conditions relating to the Incremental Term Facility;
provided that, in any event, such Incremental Term Facility shall not (i) have a final maturity earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to the Term A-1 Facility, (ii) have any required amortization prior to the Maturity Date
applicable to the Term A-1 Facility unless the average weighted life to maturity of such Incremental Term Facility is equal to or greater that the average weighted life to maturity of the Term A-1 Loans immediately prior to the Incremental Term
Closing Date and (iii) benefit from covenants that are less favorable to the Loan Parties than the covenants contained in Article VII hereto. Upon the effective date of the Incremental Term Supplement, each lender thereunder shall become
an Incremental Term Lender hereunder and such Incremental Term Supplement shall be deemed part of this Credit Agreement for all purposes thereafter. 

(c) Amendments; Etc. For the benefit of each Incremental Term Lender, the Lenders agree that they shall not consent to or approve
any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Company or any other Loan Party therefrom, to the extent the effect thereof would: 

(i) change the order of application of any reduction in the Commitments or any prepayment of any Incremental Term Loans
among the Facilities from the application thereof set forth in the applicable provisions of Section 2.04(b) or Section 2.05(b), respectively, in any manner that materially and adversely affects the Incremental Term Lenders
holding such Incremental Term Loans without the written consent of both the Required Incremental B Term Lenders and the Required Incremental B-2 Extended Term Lenders; and 

(ii) change (A) any provision of this Section 2.14(c) without the written consent of each Incremental
Term Lender, (B) the definition of “Required 
  

 66 








 
Incremental B Term Lenders” without the written consent of each Incremental B Term Lender or (C) the definition of “Required Incremental B-2 Extended Term Lenders” without the
written consent of each Incremental B-2 Extended Term Lender. 
 Section 2.15 Additional Facilities.
(a) Request for Additional Facilities. Provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or would result therefrom, at the option of the Company, the lenders party to an Additional Facility Supplement and the
Administrative Agent, and without the consent of any other Lender, one or more separate and additional tranches of commitments and loans may be established under this Credit Agreement in an amount not exceeding the Additional Facilities Limit;
provided that any such request for an Additional Facility shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000,000. 
 (b)
Conditions to Effectiveness of any Additional Facility. As a condition precedent to the establishment of any Additional Facility, the Company, the Administrative Agent and the lenders party thereto shall enter into an Additional Revolver/Term
A Facility Supplement or an Additional Incremental Term Facility Supplement, as the case may be, and satisfy the conditions precedent set forth therein. Upon the effective date of such Additional Facility Supplement, each lender thereunder shall
become an Additional Facility Lender hereunder and such Additional Facility Supplement shall be deemed part of this Credit Agreement for all purposes thereafter. 

(c) Restrictions on Additional Facilities. 

(i) Additional Revolver/Term A Facility. In the case of an Additional Revolver/Term A Facility, (a) such
Additional Facility shall not have a final maturity earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to the Term A Facility immediately prior to the respective Additional Facility Closing Date, (b) such Additional Facility shall not have any required
amortization prior to the Maturity Date applicable to the Term A Facility immediately prior to the respective Additional Facility Closing Date unless the average weighted life to maturity of such Additional Facility is equal to or greater that the
average weighted life to maturity of the Term A Loans immediately prior to the respective Additional Facility Closing Date, (c) on or prior to the respective Additional Facility Closing Date, the Company shall have terminated the existing
Revolving Credit Commitments and repaid the amounts outstanding immediately prior to such Additional Facility Closing Date under the Term A Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility, including all interest and fees applicable thereto and all other
amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect thereof and (d) the Company shall use reasonable efforts to syndicate such Additional Revolver/Term A Facility to financial institutions of the type holding a majority of
the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term A Facility, in the aggregate, immediately prior the respective Additional Facility Closing Date. 

(ii) Additional Incremental Term Facility. In the case of an Additional Incremental Term Facility, (a) such
Additional Facility shall not have 
  

 67 








 
a final maturity earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to (I) the Incremental B-2 Extended Term Facility, (II) any existing Extended Incremental Term Facility and (III) any existing
Additional Incremental Term Facility (the Facilities referenced in clauses (I), (II) and (III) referred to below as the “Applicable Incremental Term Facilities”, (b) such Additional Facility shall not have any required
amortization prior to the Maturity Date applicable to any Applicable Incremental Term Facility unless the average weighted life to maturity of such Additional Facility is equal to or greater that the average weighted life to maturity of any
Applicable Incremental Term Facility immediately prior to the respective Additional Facility Closing Date and (c) if the aggregate of the per annum rate of interest and fees payable to the Additional Facility Lenders party thereto exceeds the
aggregate of the per annum rate of interest and fees payable to the Lenders under any Applicable Incremental Term Facility (to the extent such Applicable Incremental Term Facility constitutes (i) the Incremental B-2 Extended Facility or
(ii) any Applicable Incremental Term Facility entered into within the previous eighteen (18) months) by 0.25% per annum, the Company shall pay to each Lender under each such Applicable Incremental Term Facility an additional extension
fee (the “Additional Extension Fee”) equal to such excess amount over 0.25% per annum from the respective Additional Facility Closing Date until the Loans pursuant to such Applicable Incremental Term Facility have been paid in
full. 
 (d) Amendments; Etc. For the benefit of each Additional Facility Lender, the Lenders agree that they shall not
consent to or approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Company or any other Loan Party therefrom, to the extent the effect thereof would: 

(i) waive any condition set forth in Section 6 of any Additional Facility Supplement (other than
Section 6(h) thereof), without the written consent of each Additional Facility Lender party thereto; 

(ii) waive any condition set forth in Section 5.02 as to any Credit Extension under any Additional Facility
without the written consent of the Required Additional Facility Lenders, if any, under such Additional Facility; 

(iii) change the order of application of any reduction in the Commitments or any prepayment of any Additional Facility
Loans among the Facilities from the application thereof set forth in the applicable provisions of Section 2.04(b) or Section 2.05(b), respectively, in any manner that materially and adversely affects the Additional Facility
Lenders holding such Additional Facility Loans without the written consent of the Required Additional Facility Lenders, if any, under such Additional Facility; 

(iv) change any provision of this Section 2.15(d) or the definition of “Required Additional Facility
Lenders” as to an Additional Facility without the written consent of each Additional Facility Lender under such Facility; and 
  

 68 








 (v) impose any greater restriction on the ability of any Additional Facility
Lender under an Additional Facility, if any, to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of the Required Additional Facility Lenders under such Additional Facility. 

Section 2.16 Extended Lenders and Facilities. (a) Request for Extended Lenders. At the request of the Company,
individual Term A Lenders and Revolving Credit Lenders may, from time to time, extend the maturity date of such Lender’s Term A Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on the same terms and conditions as an existing Extended Term
A Facility or Extended Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable. Each such extending Term A Lender or Revolving Credit Lender shall become a party to, and subject to the terms of, the Extended Facility Agreement applicable to such existing Extended
Facility by executing and delivering to the Company and the Administrative Agent an Accession Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the extended Term A Loans or Revolving Credit
Commitments of such Lender. Such Accession Agreement shall become effective immediately after, in the case of any extending Term A Lender, the first scheduled principal repayment installment date of the Loans under the existing Extended Term A
Facility and, in the case of any extending Revolving Credit Lender, the first payment of Commitment Fees under the existing Extended Revolving Credit Facility, in each case occurring on or after the date of the Accession Agreement (the
“Accession Effective Date”) and must be delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Accession Effective Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the request for an Extended Facility and any
allocation among the Facilities in connection therewith shall not be considered an increase in commitments made pursuant to, and subject to the terms of, Section 2.13. 

(b) Request for Extended Facilities. Subject to Sections 2.06 (a) and (c) and provided that no Default
shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or would result therefrom, at the option of the Company, the lenders party to an Extended Facility Agreement and the Administrative Agent, and without the consent of any other Lender, the maturity
and, if applicable, amortization schedule of one or more of the Facilities may be extended under this Credit Agreement; provided that any Extended Facility requested by the Company shall be participated in by Lenders holding at least 10% of
the outstanding Loans (or Commitments, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility) under the Facility to be extended; and provided further that, unless extended or prepaid in full, the aggregate amount of any Incremental Term
Facility may not be less than $250,000,000 on the date of, and as a result of, any such extension. In the event that the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans proposed to be extended would result in a breach of the immediately preceding
proviso, the size of the proposed Extended Incremental Term Facility shall be reduced pro rata across the Lenders party thereto in the necessary amount to be in compliance with such proviso. 

(c) Conditions to Effectiveness of any Extended Facility. As a condition precedent to the extension of any Facility, the Company,
the Administrative Agent and the lenders party thereto shall enter into an Extended Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, Extended Term A Facility Agreement, an Extended Incremental Term Facility Agreement or an Extended Additional Facility
Agreement, as the case may be, and satisfy the conditions precedent set forth therein. 
  

 69 








 (d) Restrictions on Extended Facilities. In the case of an Extended Facility, if the
aggregate of the per annum rate of interest and fees payable to any Lender party to any Extended Facility exceeds the aggregate of the per annum rate of interest and fees payable to the Lenders under a previous extended Prior Facility, if any (to
the extent such previous Extended Facility constitutes (i) the Incremental B-2 Term Facility or (ii) an Extended Facility that was entered into within the previous eighteen (18) months) by 0.25% per annum, the Company shall pay
to each Prior Facility Lender under each such Prior Facility an additional extension fee (the “Additional Extended Facility Extension Fee”) equal to such excess amount over 0.25% per annum from the respective Extended Facility
Closing Date until the Loans pursuant to such Prior Facility have been paid in full. 
 (e) Amendments; Etc. For the
benefit of each Extended Facility Lender, the Lenders agree that they shall not consent to or approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Company or any
other Loan Party therefrom, to the extent the effect thereof would: 
 (i) waive any condition set forth in
Section 4 of any Extended Facility Agreement (other than Section 4(g) thereof), without the written consent of each Extended Facility Lender party thereto; 

(ii) change the order of application of any reduction in the Commitments or any prepayment of any Extended Facility Loans
among the Facilities from the application thereof set forth in the applicable provisions of Section 2.04(b) or Section 2.05(b), respectively, in any manner that materially and adversely affects the Extended Facility Lenders
holding such Extended Facility Loans without the written consent of the Required Extended Facility Lenders, if any, under such Extended Facility; 

(iii) change any provision of this Section 2.16(d) or the definition of “Required Extended Facility
Lenders” as to an Extended Facility without the written consent of each Extended Facility Lender under such Facility; and 

(iv) impose any greater restriction on the ability of any Extended Facility Lender under an Extended Facility, if any, to
assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the written consent of the Required Extended Facility Lenders under such Extended Facility.

 ARTICLE III 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

Section 3.01 Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Company hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Company shall be required by applicable law to deduct any
Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Company shall make such deductions and (iii) the
Company shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely
pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Indemnification by the
Company. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed
or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender or the L/C
Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Company to a
Governmental Authority, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence
of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is
entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Company is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the 

 

 71 








 
Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the
Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Company is resident for tax purposes in the United States, any Foreign Lender
shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the request of the Company or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(i) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party, 
 (ii) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI, 
 (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest
under section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company
within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or 

(iv) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States
Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion,
that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to the Company an amount equal to
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Company, upon

  

 72 








 
the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer if the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to
require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person. 

Section 3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has
asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed
material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such
Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination
no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the
last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Company shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 

Section 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any
request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested
Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, the
obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending
request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

 Section 3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. (a) Increased Costs Generally. If
any Change in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan,
insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate contemplated by
Section 3.04(e)) or the L/C Issuer; 
  

 73 








 (ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever
with respect to this Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer); or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting
this Credit Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the
result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of
participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder
(whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Company will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital
Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding
capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of
this Credit Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or
such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C
Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or
such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
  

 74 








 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer
setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Company shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the
foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then
the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 (e)
Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Company shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently
known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good
faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice. 

Section 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time,
the Company shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any
failure by the Company (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Company; or 

 

 75 








 (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 10.12; 
 including any loss of
anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Company shall also pay any
customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts
payable by the Company to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a
matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 

Section 3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or the Company is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender
gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its
offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, as the case may be, in the
future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such
Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Company is required to
pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, the Company may replace such Lender in
accordance with Section 10.12. 
 Section 3.07 Survival. All of the Company’s obligations under
this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 
  

 76 








 ARTICLE IV 

GUARANTY 

Section 4.01 Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a
guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the
Obligations, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, of the Company to the Secured Parties, arising hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including all renewals, extensions,
amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof). The Administrative Agent’s books and records
showing the amount of the Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon each Guarantor, and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Obligations, absent manifest error. This
Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or
extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any
defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing. 
 Section 4.02 Rights
of Lenders. Each Guarantor consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew,
compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for
the payment of this Guaranty or any Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or
substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any
extent vary the risks of such Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of such Guarantor. 

Section 4.03 Certain Waivers. Each Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability, change in
corporate existence or structure or other defense of the Company or any other Guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of the Company or any other Guarantor;
(b) any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Company or any other Guarantor; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s
liability 
  

 77 








 
hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the Company, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever;
(e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by
applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. Each Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or
additional Obligations. 
 Section 4.04 Obligations Independent. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are
those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Obligations and the obligations of any other Guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against such Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Company or
any other person or entity is joined as a party. 
 Section 4.05 Subrogation. Each Guarantor shall not exercise any
right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and
performed in full and the Commitments and the Facilities are terminated. If any amounts are paid to any Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall
forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce the amount of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 

Section 4.06 Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Obligations now or
hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and the Commitments and the Facilities with respect to the Obligations are
terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its
right of setoff, in respect of the Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement
entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such
setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph
shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 Section 4.07 Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates the
payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Company owing to such Guarantor, whether 
  

 78 








 
now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of the Company to such Guarantor as subrogee of the Secured Parties or resulting from such Guarantor’s
performance under this Guaranty, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Obligations. If the Secured Parties so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Company to any Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by
such Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Secured Parties on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty.

 Section 4.08 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed,
in connection with any case commenced by or against any Guarantor or the Company under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by such Guarantor immediately upon demand by the Secured Parties. 

Section 4.09 Condition of Company. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has
adequate means of, obtaining from the Company and any other Guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Company and any such other Guarantor as such Guarantor requires, and that none of the Secured
Parties has any duty, and such Guarantor is not relying on the Secured Parties at any time, to disclose to such Guarantor any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Company or any other Guarantor (such
Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same). 

Section 4.10 Limitation on Guaranty. It is the intention of the Guarantors, the Lenders and the Company that the obligations
of each Guarantor hereunder shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. To that end, but only to the extent such obligations would otherwise be avoidable, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be
limited to the maximum amount that, after giving effect to the incurrence thereof, would not render such Guarantor insolvent or unable to make payments in respect of any of its indebtedness as such indebtedness matures or leave such Guarantor with
an unreasonably small capital. The need for any such limitation shall be determined, and any such needed limitation shall be effective, at the time or times that such Guarantor is deemed, under applicable law, to incur the Obligations hereunder. Any
such limitation shall be apportioned amongst the Obligations pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts thereof. This paragraph is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lenders under this Credit Agreement to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, and neither the Guarantors, the Company nor any other Person shall have any right under this paragraph that it would not otherwise have under applicable law. The Company and each Guarantor agree not to commence any
proceeding or action seeking to limit the amount of the obligation of such Guarantor under this Article IV by reason of this paragraph. For the purposes of this paragraph, “insolvency”, “unreasonably small capital” and
“unable to make payments in respect of any of its indebtedness as such indebtedness matures” shall be determined in accordance with applicable law. 
  

 79

 ARTICLE IX 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 9.01 Appointment and Authority. (a) Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of
America 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 the L/C Issuer, and neither the
Company nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 (b) The
Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, potential Hedge Bank and potential Cash Management Bank) and the L/C Issuer hereby
irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of
the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the
direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article X (including Section 10.04(c), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the
“collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 
 Section 9.02
Rights as a Lender. 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” 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, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company 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. 
 Section 9.03
Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is
continuing; 
  

 108 








 (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; 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 Company 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 Section 10.01 and Section 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company, a Lender or the L/C Issuer. 

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 Credit 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
Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any
Collateral, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

Section 9.04 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. 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 a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the

  

 109 








 
L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary
from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), 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 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any 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. 

Section 9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to
the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United
States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative
Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the
Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) 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 and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. 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 retired) Administrative Agent, and the
retiring 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 the Company to a
successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the 

 

 110 








 
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the
benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

 Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as
L/C Issuer. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer,
(ii) the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the
Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

 Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges
that it has, 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 has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer 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 Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.

duties or responsibilities under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder. 

Section 9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency,
liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due
and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

  

 111

unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative

amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 2.08. 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of
any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any
Lender the L/C Issuer or in any such proceeding. 
 Section 9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and
the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the
expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit, (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in

such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance
with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

(ii) if to any other Lender, to the address, telecopier number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified in
its Administrative Questionnaire.

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereunder may be delivered or
furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Article II if such Lender or 
  

 115 








 
the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the
Company 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. 
 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. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO
NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMPANY MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE COMPANY 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 COMPANY 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 Company, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Company’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Company Materials through the Internet, 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 Company, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

(d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Company, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may change its address, telecopier or
telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Company,
the Administrative Agent 
  

 116 








 
and the L/C Issuer. In addition, 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. 

(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders
shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not
preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each
Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company. All telephonic notices to and other
telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

Section 10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any
Lender to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The right, remedy,
power or privilege provided herein, and provided under any other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any right, remedy, power or privilege provided by law. 

Section 10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Costs and Expenses. The Company shall pay (i) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities
provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for
payment thereunder and (iii) all expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer) in connection
with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with Loans made or Letters of Credit issued
hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
  

 117 








 (b) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may
be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Company or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of
this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or
the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Company
or any other Loan Party or any of the Company’s or such Loan Party’s directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in
part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any other
Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Company or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for
any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such 
  

 118 








 
unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity.
The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(d). 

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall not assert, and
hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Credit
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection
(b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with
this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 (e) Payments.
All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor. 
 (f)
Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all the other Obligations. 
 Section 10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of
the Company is made to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee,
receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued
in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of
any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations
of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 

 

 119 








 Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns. (a) Successors and Assigns
Generally. The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Company nor any other Loan Party may
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except
(i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(d), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a
security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.06(f), or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.06(h) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null
and void). Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in
subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Credit Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all
or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.06(b), participations in L/C Obligations) at the time owing to
it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum
Amounts. 
 (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment under any Facility and the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for
this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment
in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, or $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of a Term Facility, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company
otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of 

 

 120 








 
an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a
single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met; 
 (ii) Proportionate
Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this
clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis; 

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by
subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be
required for assignments in respect of (i) any Term Commitment or Revolving Credit Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of the applicable Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an
Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (ii) any Term Loan to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and 

(C) the consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any
assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding). 

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount, if any, required as set forth in Schedule 10.06; 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 shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

 

 121 








 (v) No Assignment to Company. No such assignment shall be made to the
Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons.
No such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue
to be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01, Section 3.04, Section 3.05 and Section 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon
request, the Company (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for
purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.06(d). 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time,
without the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C
Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations and (iii) the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement.
Any 
  

 122 








 
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other
modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 3.01, Section 3.04 and Section 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.06(b). To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.07 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. 

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 3.01 or Section 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the
Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and
such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender. 

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under
this Credit Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such
Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(g) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of
like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature
or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures
and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 (h) Special Purpose
Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender
to the Administrative Agent and the Company (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Credit Agreement; provided that
(i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise 

 

 123 








 
such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such
payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under Section 2.11(b)(ii). Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or
otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Company under this Credit Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.04), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Credit
Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record
hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees
(which agreement shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute
against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee in the amount of $2,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment
with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit
or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
 (i) Resignation as L/C Issuer after Assignment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 10.06(b), Bank of America may upon 30 days’ notice to the
Company and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by
the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer. If Bank of America resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect
to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in
Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). Upon the appointment and acceptance of a successor L/C Issuer, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring L/C Issuer, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to
effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
  

 124 








 Section 10.07 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company or
any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Company or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such
Lender or the L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Company or such Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such
Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and
remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and
application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

Section 10.08 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest
paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an
amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by
the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude
voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

Section 10.09 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Credit Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by
different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire
contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.01, this Credit
Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties
hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Credit Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Credit Agreement. 

 

 125 








 Section 10.10 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations
and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and
warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit
shall remain outstanding. 
 Section 10.11 Severability. If any provision of this Credit Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and
(b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable
provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 10.12 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Company
is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, or if any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions
contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be
another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: 
 (a) the Company shall have paid to
the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b); 
 (b) such Lender shall
have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts); 
  


 126 








 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or
otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

contemplated hereby, the Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the credit facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other
modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and joint Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, and the Company is
capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof);
(ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers each is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Company or
any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Joint Lead Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the
Company with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the
Administrative Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger has advised or is currently advising the Company or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Joint Lead Arranger has any obligation to the Company or any of
its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the

against the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty. 

Section 10.16 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative
Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to
obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each
Loan Party in accordance with the Act. 
 Section 10.17 Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations and all Extension Fees
shall constitute “Senior Indebtedness” as such term is defined in all debt instruments to which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is a party and which contains such a definition. 

Section 10.18 Liability of General Partners and Other Persons. No general partner of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a
partnership, joint venture or joint adventure shall have any personal liability in respect of such Restricted Subsidiary’s obligation under this Credit Agreement or the Notes by reason of his, her or its status as such general partner. In
addition, no limited partner, officer, employee, director, stockholder or other holder of an ownership interest of or in the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or any partnership, corporation or other entity which is a stockholder or other holder
of an ownership interest of or in the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have any personal liability in respect of such obligations by reason of his, her or its status as such limited partner, officer, employee, director, stockholder or
holder. 
 Section 10.19 Authorization of Third Parties to Deliver Information and Discuss Affairs. The Company

under Article V and Article VII) to so prepare or deliver such opinions, reports or other information for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Company agrees to confirm such authorizations and directions provided for in this
Section 10.19 from time to time as may be requested by the Administrative Agent. 
  

 129 








 Section 10.20 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer 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
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives on a need to know basis (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 (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto other than a Public Lender as provided in Section 7.01, (e) in
connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject
to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section (other than in the case of a pledge to any Federal Reserve Bank), to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement, (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 10.06(f), or (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the
Company and its obligations, (g) with the written consent of the Company, or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the
Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company or any other Loan Party. 

In the event that the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer are requested or required pursuant to clause (b) or
(c) above to disclose any Information, to the extent permitted by law, such person shall provide the Company with prompt written notice, to the extent practicable and not in contravention with such request or requirement, of any such request or
requirement so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Section. If such notice is not practicable or in contravention with such request or if, in the absence of a
protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver by the Company, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer is nonetheless compelled to disclose Information, such person may, without liability hereunder, disclose only that
portion of the Information that is legally required to be disclosed, provided that such person exercises reasonable efforts, to the extent practicable, to preserve the confidentiality of such Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers may disclose Information to any regulatory or self-regulatory agency having jurisdiction over it in the course of routine reviews or audits, which Information may be disclosed without notice or
restriction. For purposes hereof, “routine” reviews or audits shall not include any reviews or audits the target of which is the Company in particular (as opposed to the Company having been arbitrarily selected as part of a wider review or
audit). 
  

 130 








 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received
from the Company or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Company or any Subsidiary thereof or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a
non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Company or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information shall not be Information subject to
this confidentiality provision if it is stamped “Public”. 
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C
Issuer acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public
information, and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 

Section 10.21 Acknowledgement. The Company hereby acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any
fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to the Company arising out of or in connection with this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the one hand, and
the Company, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor.
