“Refunding Date”), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swingline Loans by paying to the Swingline Lender an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to
(i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. 

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Lender’s Swingline Participation
Amount, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the
period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not
sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to
the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swingline Lender. 
 (e) Each Revolving
Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 3.4(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 3.4(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or
continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 6; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 

3.5 Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee for
the period from and including the 
  

 39 







 
Closing Date to the last day of the Revolving Availability Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the
period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Revolving Termination Date, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof. 

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay closing fees to each Revolving Lender on the Closing Date as fee compensation for such Lender’s
Revolving Commitment in an amount equal to 1.5% of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, payable to such Revolving Lender on the Closing Date. 

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 3.6 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall
have the right, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such
termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would
exceed the Total Revolving Commitments; provided, further that such notice may be contingent on the occurrence of a refinancing or the consummation of a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets and may be revoked or the
termination date deferred if the refinancing or sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not occur. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, and shall reduce
permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect. 
 3.7 L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.10(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day
during the Revolving Availability Period substantially in the form of Exhibit M or in such other form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of
Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be
denominated in Dollars, (ii) have a face amount of at least $100,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Issuing Lender) and (iii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date
that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (or a longer period if agreed to by the
Issuing Lender but in no event shall any renewal period extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above). Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, issued on a sight basis only and governed by laws of the State of New York
(unless the laws of another jurisdiction is agreed to by the respective Issuing Lender) and governed under The International Standby Practices (ISP98). 
  

 40 







 (b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit
hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law. 

3.8 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter
of Credit by delivering to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the
Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any Application, the Issuing Lender will notify the Administrative Agent of the amount, the beneficiary and the requested expiration of the requested Letter of Credit, and upon receipt of
confirmation from the Administrative Agent that after giving effect to the requested issuance, the Available Revolving Commitments would not be less than zero, the Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and
other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any
Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the
beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) promptly following the issuance
thereof. The Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof). 

3.9 Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrower will pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to
the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of
Credit. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee of 0.25% per annum on the undrawn and unexpired amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date
after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit. 
 (b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse
the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 

3.10 L/C Participations. (a) The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and,
to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C
Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount
of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender 

 

 41 







 
that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant
shall pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand of the Issuing Lender an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly forward such amounts to the Issuing Lender. 
 (b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.10(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such
amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a
fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.10(a) is not made available to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three (3) Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such
amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under
this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has
made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.10(a), the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such
Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as the case
may be, will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, shall be required
to be returned by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent or the
Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to it. 
 3.11 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. The Issuing Lender shall
notify the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit and paid by the Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any fees,
charges or other costs or expenses (other than taxes or similar amounts) incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment on (x) the same Business Day on which the Borrower receives such notice if the Borrower receives such notice
by 12:00 Noon New York City time on such day or (y) the next Business Day if the Borrower receives such notice after 12:00 Noon New York City time on such day. Each such 

 

 42 







 
payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the
date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (i) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 4.5(b) and (ii) thereafter, Section 4.5(c). Each drawing
under any Letter of Credit shall (unless an event of the type described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower, in which case the procedures specified in
Section 3.10 for funding by L/C Participants shall apply) constitute a request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for a borrowing pursuant to Section 3.2 of Base Rate Loans (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the
Swingline Lender in their sole discretion, a borrowing pursuant to Section 3.4 of Swingline Loans) in the amount of such drawing. The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the first date on which a borrowing of Revolving Loans
(or, if applicable, Swingline Loans) could be made, pursuant to Section 3.2 (or, if applicable, Section 3.4), if the Administrative Agent had received a notice of such borrowing at the time the Administrative Agent receives notice from the
Issuing Lender of such drawing under such Letter of Credit. 
 3.12 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations
under Section 3.11 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a
Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.11 shall not be affected by, among
other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter
of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error,
omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays found by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter
of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, shall be binding on the
Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower. 
 3.13 Letter of Credit Payments.
If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date of payment and amount paid by the Issuing Lender in respect thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Lender
to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each
draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit. 
  

 43 







 3.14 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any
Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply. 

3.15 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes, and
during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender will not be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend
the expiry date thereof, and the Swingline Lender will not be required to make any Swingline Loan, unless the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, is satisfied that any exposure that would result therefrom is eliminated or
fully covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders or by Cash Collateralization or a combination thereof satisfactory to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender. 

(b) If any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan is at the
time outstanding, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, may (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to clause(c) below), by notice to the Borrower and
such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan in amount at
least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Lender and the
Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender. 

(c) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any
outstanding L/C Exposure, any outstanding Swingline Exposure and any outstanding Revolving Percentage of such Defaulting Lender: 

(i) the L/C Exposure, the Swingline Exposure and the Revolving Percentage of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the
limitation in the proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided
that (x) such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists, (y) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Total Revolving Extensions of
Credit, total Swingline Exposure and total L/C Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (z) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting
Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to
be a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided further that, for purposes of clause (x) in the first 
  

 44 







 
proviso above, such reallocation shall be given effect immediately upon the cure or waiver of such Default or Event of Default and subject to clauses (y) and (z) above; 

(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s L/C
Exposure and Swingline Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of subsection (y) of the proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three (3) Business Days after demand by the
Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be), (x) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender in respect of such L/C Exposure
or Swingline Exposure, as the case may be, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, or (y) in the case of such Swingline Exposure, prepay (subject to clause
(iii) below) and/or Cash Collateralize in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (z) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their
sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and 
 (iii) any
amount paid by the Borrower for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will
instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to clause (g) below) the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be
applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under
this Agreement, third to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and
payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and
unreimbursed L/C Obligations then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the
Non-Defaulting Lenders, and seventh after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent
jurisdiction may otherwise direct. 
  

 45 







 (d) In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it
remains, a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower fails to take the actions specified under subsection (b) above, each of the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and
coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 3.2 in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an outstanding L/C Obligations,
(ii) repay an outstanding Swingline Loan, and/or (iii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations
(contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan. 
 (e) Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Sections 3.5(a) and 3.9 (without prejudice to the rights
of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided that (i) to the extent that a portion of the L/C Exposure or the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders
pursuant to clause (c) above, such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective
Commitments, and (ii) to the extent any portion of such L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure cannot be so reallocated, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender as their
interests appear (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 4.8 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section). 

(f) The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three (3) Business
Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of (c)(iii) above will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting
Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 
 (g) If the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the
parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in clause
(c)(iii) above), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit
Extensions, L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender
(and such Exposure of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments

  

 46 







 
made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no
change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

SECTION 4. GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE 

TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT 

4.1 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, one
(1) Business Day prior thereto, in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is
prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.11; provided, further that such notice may be contingent on the occurrence
of a refinancing or the consummation of a sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets and may be revoked or the termination date deferred if the refinancing or sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not occur. Upon
receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in
the case of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or integral
multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Partial prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof. 

4.2 Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. (a) If any Indebtedness or Disqualified Capital Stock shall be incurred
or issued by any Group Member (other than Excluded Indebtedness), an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such incurrence or issuance toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 4.2(d). 
 (b) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery
Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 4.2(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the
foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 4.2(d).

 (c) The Borrower shall, on each Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply the ECF Percentage of the excess, if any, of
(i) Excess Cash Flow for the related Excess Cash Flow Payment Period minus (ii) Prepayments made during such Excess Cash Flow Payment Period toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 4.2(d). Except as provided

  

 47 







 
below, each such prepayment and commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than one hundred (100) days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Borrower with respect to which such prepayment is made (commencing with the fiscal year of the Borrower ending December 31, 2010). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower will not be required to prepay the Loans
pursuant to this clause (c) with respect to any Excess Cash Flow for the related Excess Cash Flow Payment Period attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary if the repatriation of such Excess Cash Flow from such Foreign Subsidiary at any time during
the fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow Application Date occurs would cause adverse tax consequences to the Borrower or would otherwise be payable as a result of the occurrence of any one-time repatriation holidays; provided that in
the event the Borrower is required to make a payment of Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary, such payment shall be made no later than ten (10) days after the Borrower becomes aware that such repatriation would not cause
adverse tax consequences to the Borrower; provided further that in the event that the Borrower is not required to make a payment of Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary during the fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow
Application Date occurs, no payment shall be due in any succeeding fiscal year. 
 (d) Amounts to be applied in connection with
prepayments made pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans and, second, to prepay the Revolving Loans without any permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments, in each case on a
pro rata basis; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of such excess (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the
extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in cash in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders on terms and conditions satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 4.2 shall
be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. 
 (e) The Total Term Commitment (and
the Term Commitments of each Lender) shall be permanently reduced on the Closing Date by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans borrowed on such date. The Total Term Commitment (and the Term Commitments of each Lender) shall terminate in its
entirety on the earlier of (i) the Merger Closing Date and (ii) the Term Commitment Termination Date. 
 4.3
Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New
York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to
time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which
notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Administrative Agent has or the 
  

 48 







 
Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
 (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of
the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1,
of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative
Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations; and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice
as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any
such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
 4.4 Limitations on Eurodollar
Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to
such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof and (b) no
more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 
 4.5 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.
(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

(c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at the election of the Required Lenders, all outstanding Loans,
Reimbursement Obligations, commitment fees and other amounts payable hereunder (whether or not overdue) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant
to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, (ii) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2% and (iii) in the case of any such other amounts
that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Term Facility plus 2%, in each case from the date of such election until such Event of Default is no longer continuing; provided that
the foregoing interest rate shall apply automatically, without any election of the Required Lenders, in the case of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or (f). 

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph
(c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
  

 49 







 (e) 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 any 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 Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a
Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (ii) 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. 

4.6 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Base Rate Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of clause (a) or (b) of the definition of Base Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated
on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in
the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as
soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive
and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining
any interest rate pursuant to Section 4.6(a). 
 4.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day
of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be
conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the
Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as reasonably determined and conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected
Loans during such Interest Period, 
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower
and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter but at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the

  

 50 







 
relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted
on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to
Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to withdraw promptly upon a determination that the condition or situation which gave rise to such notice no longer
exists), no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans. 

4.8 Pro Rata Treatment; Application of Payments; Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder,
each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the case may be, of the
relevant Lenders. 
 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans
shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. The amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans (i) pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be
applied in direct order to reduce the next four installments of the Term Loans and thereafter to reduce the then remaining installments of the Term Loans pro rata based upon the then remaining principal amount thereof and (ii) all
other prepayments shall be applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Term Loans pro rata based upon the then remaining principal amount thereof. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be
reborrowed. 
 (c) Each payment (including each prepayment) on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall
be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders. 

(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or
otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in
immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a
day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment
of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
  

 51 







 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior
to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be required to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the
required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined
by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted
to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three
(3) Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the
Borrower. 
 (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any
payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not
be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days
after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to
the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of this Section 4.8 shall be subject to the express
provisions of this Agreement which require or permit differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders. 

4.9 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of, taking effect of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the
administration, interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender or Issuing Lender with any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made
subsequent to the date hereof: 
 (i) shall subject any Lender or Issuing Lender to any tax of any kind
whatsoever solely with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or Issuing Lender in
respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes covered by Section 4.10, taxes arising under FATCA (as defined in Section 4.10(a)(iii)) and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or Issuing
Lender); 
  

 52 







 (i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or Issuing
Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or 
 (ii) shall
impose on such Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining
Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined
by such Lender with respect to its Eurodollar Loans or Letters of Credit, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing
Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender or Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent)
of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender shall have determined that the
adoption of, taking effect of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or Issuing
Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or
Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such corporation could have achieved
but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, after submission by such Lender or
Issuing Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or
such corporation for such reduction. 
 (c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section
submitted by any Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that 

 

 53 







 
the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date
that such Lender or Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then
such one hundred and eighty (180) day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The Borrower shall pay the Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any certificate referred to above within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

4.10 Taxes. (a) All payments made by or on account of any Loan Party under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document
shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding (i) net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on any Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between
such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Agent or such Lender having
executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States or any similar tax imposed by any other
jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located or (iii) any tax imposed as a result of such Lender’s failure or inability to comply with the requirements of Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations promulgated
thereunder (“FATCA”) to establish an exemption from withholding thereunder. If, under applicable law, any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded
Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to such Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Agent or such
Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, including in respect of any payments under this Section 4.10) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement;
provided, however, that no Loan Party shall be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender on account of any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the
requirements of paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section or with FATCA or (ii) that are withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a
Transferee, on the date such Transferee becomes a Transferee hereunder), except to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such
Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are paid by the
Borrower, as promptly as practicable thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative 
  

 54 







 
Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment
thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall
indemnify the Agents and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest and penalties that may become payable by any Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure, other than to the extent such incremental amount is a result of an action, or
failure to act, on the part of the Agents or such Lender. 
 (d) Each Lender (or each Transferee) that is not a “United
States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, (x) in the case of a Participant, solely to the Lender from which
the related participation shall have been purchased and (y) in the case of an Assignee under an assignment to an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender that is made pursuant to Section 11.6(c), the assigning Lender) two
completed originals of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to
payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit E and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming
complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a
party to this Agreement (or, (x) in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation and (y) in the case of an Assignee, on or before the date such Assignee becomes a party to this
Agreement). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender (or Participant or Assignee, as applicable) shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender, or upon written request of the
Borrower or any Agent. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted
by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.
Each Lender (or each Transferee) who is a “United States person” as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (i) on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, (x) in the case of any
Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation and (y) in the case of an Assignee, on or before the date such Assignee becomes a party to this Agreement), (ii) upon learning that any form it
previously provided has become invalid, obsolete or incorrect, and (iii) from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or,
(x) in the case of a Participant, solely to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased and (y) in the case of an Assignee under an assignment to an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender that
is made pursuant to Section 11.6(c), the assigning Lender) duplicate executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form, certifying that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax.

  

 55 







 (e) A Lender (or a Transferee) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of
non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower, 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; provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially
prejudice the legal position of such Lender. 
 (b) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole
discretion, that it has received a refund of or credit against any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 4.10, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.10 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes
giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower,
upon the request of such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent
or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10, if
the Internal Revenue Service determines that the Agent or any Lender is a conduit entity participating in a conduit financing arrangement as defined in Section 7701(1) of the Code and the regulations thereunder and the Borrower was not a
participant to such arrangement (other than as a Borrower under this Agreement) (a “Conduit Financing Arrangement”), then (i) the Borrower shall have no obligation to pay additional amounts or indemnify the Agent or Lender for
any Taxes with respect to any payments hereunder to the extent that the amount of such Taxes exceeds the amount that would have otherwise been withheld or deducted had the Internal Revenue Service not made such a determination and (ii) such
Agent or Lender shall indemnify the Borrowers in full for any and all taxes for which the Borrower is held directly liable under Section 1461 of the Code by virtue of such Conduit Financing Arrangement; provided that such Borrower
(A) promptly forward to the indemnitor an official receipt of such documentation satisfactorily evidencing such payment, (B) contest such tax upon the reasonable request of the indemnitor and at such indemnitor’s cost and (C) pay
such indemnitor within thirty (30) days any refund of such taxes (including interest thereon). Each Agent or Lender represents that it is not participating in a Conduit Financing Arrangement. 

(g) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
  

 56 







 4.11 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender
harmless from any loss, cost or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice
requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of, or a conversion from, Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (d) any other default by the Borrower in the repayment of such
Eurodollar Loans when and as required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Such indemnification may include an amount (other than with respect to clause (d)) equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued
on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow,
convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any)
over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A
certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans
and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 4.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence
of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 4.9 or 4.10(a), (b) or (c) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to
designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender
and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage or any unreimbursed costs or expenses; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the
Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a), (b) or (c). The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation. 

4.13 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for
amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a) (such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), (b) is a Non-Consenting Lender or (c) is a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement financial institution or other entity;
provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) in the case of an Affected Lender, prior to
any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 4.12 so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a), (iv) the replacement financial institution or
entity shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 4.11 if any Eurodollar Loan

  

 57 







 
owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution or entity shall be an Eligible
Assignee, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to
therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 4.9 or 4.10(a), as the case may be, (ix) any such replacement shall not be
deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (x) in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender, the replacement financial institution or entity shall
consent at the time of such assignment to each matter in respect of which the replaced Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. 

4.14 Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 

(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower (or, in the case of an assignment not required to be recorded in the Register in
accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(d), the assigning Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower), shall maintain the Register (or, in the case of an assignment not required to be recorded in the
Register in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(d), a Related Party Register), in each case pursuant to Section 11.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made
hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type of such Loan and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder
and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of an assignment not required to be recorded in the Register in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6(d), the assigning Lender) hereunder
from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (c) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender
maintained pursuant to Section 4.14(a) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the
failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by
such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (d) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the
Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms
of Exhibit F-1, F-2 or F-3, respectively, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount. 
 4.15
Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall

 5.2 No Change. Since January 1, 2010, there has been no development
or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.3 Corporate Existence;
Compliance with Law. Except as permitted under Section 8.4, each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority,
and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign entity and in good standing under the laws of
each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, (d) is in compliance with the terms of its Organizational Documents and (e) is in compliance with the terms

 60 







 5.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and
authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational and other
action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or
authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the Transactions or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of
this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (a) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 5.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect on
or before the Closing Date or the Merger Closing Date, as applicable, other than any such consents, authorizations, filings and notices the absence of which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (b) the filings
referred to in Section 5.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 

5.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters
of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate (a) its Organizational Document, (b) any Requirement of Law, Governmental Authorization or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and
(c) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to its Organizational Documents, any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the
Liens created by the Security Documents and the Permitted Liens), except for any violation set forth in clauses (b) or (c) which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.6 Litigation. Except as disclosed in Schedule 5.6, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or
Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents, which would in any
respect impair the enforceability of the Loan Documents, taken as a whole or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.7 No Default. No Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

5.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has title in fee simple (or local law equivalent) to all of its owned real
property, a valid leasehold interest in all its leased real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, license of, or right to use, all its other tangible Property material to its business, and no such Property is subject to any
Lien 
  

 61 







 
except as permitted by Section 8.3. As of the date hereof, no condemnation has been commenced or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, is contemplated with respect to all or any portion of any
real property a Group Member has an interest in or for the relocation of roadways providing access to such property. 
 5.9
Intellectual Property. All Intellectual Property owned by the Group Members is owned free and clear of all Liens (other than (i) as permitted by Section 8.3, (ii) licenses listed on Schedule 5.9, (iii) other licenses
granted in the ordinary course of business (including in connection with the sale or provision by Group Members of products or services), (iv) the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant
to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (v) licenses under which a Group Member is the licensor in existence as of the date hereof (including in connection with the sale or provision by a Group Member of products or services) and
(vi) licenses to other Group Members). To the knowledge of any Loan Party, the conduct of, and the use of Intellectual Property in, the business of the Group Members (including the products and services of the Group Members) does not infringe,
misappropriate, or otherwise violate in any material respect the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person and, except as disclosed in Schedule 5.9, to the knowledge of any Loan Party in the last two (2) years there has been no such
claim asserted in writing (including in the form of offers or invitations to obtain a license) asserted or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against any Group Member. For purposes of this Section 5.9, the term “knowledge of
any Loan Party” means the actual knowledge of Tom Tokos, Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, Doug Balog, Assistant Secretary, and Paul Bernkopf, Chief Intellectual Property Counsel. 

5.10 Taxes. Each Loan Party has filed or caused to be filed all federal, state and other tax returns that are required to be filed
by it and all such tax returns are true, correct, and complete in all respects; each Loan Party has paid all taxes and any assessments made against it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any which are not yet due or the
amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Loan Party); no tax Lien has been filed
(other than for taxes not yet due or the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant
Loan Party) and, no Loan Party is aware of any proposed or pending tax assessments, deficiencies or audits that could be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any extension of credit under this Agreement will be used for any purpose
that violates or would be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent
and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U 1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. 

5.12 Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:
(a) there are no strikes or other labor disputes against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened; (b) hours 

 

 62 







 
worked by and payment made to employees of each Group Member have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act, as amended, or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such
matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member on account of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the relevant Group Member. 

5.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412
of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Single Employer Plan, and each Plan has complied in all respects with the
applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code except where the failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien against the Borrower or any
Commonly Controlled Entity in favor of the PBGC or a Single Employer Plan or a Multiemployer Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to
fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by more than $15,000,000. Neither
the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the Borrower nor any
Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the
date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent. 
 5.14
Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No
Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of the Board, as amended) that limits its ability to incur Indebtedness. 

5.15 Subsidiaries. Except as disclosed to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in writing from time to time after the Closing
Date, (a) Schedule 5.15 sets forth (i) the name and jurisdiction of formation or incorporation of each Group Member (other than the Borrower) and, as to each such Group Member, states the authorized and issued capitalization of such Group
Member, the beneficial and record owners thereof and the percentage of each class of Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party and (ii) each Immaterial Subsidiary as of the Closing Date, and (b) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options,
warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of any Group Member (other than the Borrower),
except as created by the Loan Documents. Except as listed on Schedule 5.15, as of the Closing Date, no Group Member owns any interests in any joint venture, partnership or similar arrangements with any Person. 

 

 63 







 5.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used to finance a
portion of the Acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans shall be used, together with the proceeds of the Swingline Loans and the Letters of Credit, for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries. 
 5.17 Environmental Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect: 
 (a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the
“Properties”) do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted a violation of, or could reasonably be
expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law; 
 (b) no Group Member has received any notice of violation,
nor has knowledge of any alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member, nor
does the Borrower have knowledge or reason to believe that any such notice will be received or is being threatened; 
 (c)
Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties by any Group Member or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, by any other person in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that could reasonably be
expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of by any Group Member or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, by any other person at, on or
under any of the Properties in violation of, or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, any applicable Environmental Law; 

(d) no judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened, under
any Environmental Law to which any Group Member is or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees,
consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member; 

(e) there has been no release or threat of release of Materials of Environmental Concern by any Group Member or, to the Borrower’s
knowledge, by any other person at or from the Properties, or arising from or related to the operations of any Group Member in connection with the Properties or otherwise in connection with the business operated by any Group Member, in violation of
or in amounts or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under Environmental Laws; 
 (f) the
Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and have in the last five years been in compliance, with all applicable Environmental Laws; and 

 

 64 







 (g) no Group Member has assumed any liability of any other Person under Environmental Laws.

 5.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. No written statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, when taken as a whole, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished, any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
contained herein or therein not misleading; provided, however, that with respect to the projections, other pro forma financial information and information of a general economic or industry-specific nature contained in the
materials referenced above, the Borrower represents only that the same were prepared in good faith and are based upon estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the
Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by
a material amount. 
 5.19 Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each other Security
Document is, or upon execution, will be, effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof (to the extent a security
interest can be created therein under the Uniform Commercial Code). In the case of the Pledged Equity Interests described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each Foreign Pledge Agreement, when stock or interest certificates representing
such Pledged Equity Interests (along with properly completed stock or interest powers endorsing the Pledged Equity Interest and executed by the owner of such shares or interests are delivered to the Collateral Agent) or such other actions specified
in each Foreign Pledge Agreement are taken, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other Security Document (other than deposit accounts), when financing statements and other filings
specified on Schedule 5.19 in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 5.19, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and
interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Liens permitted by Section 8.3). In the case of Collateral that
consists of deposit accounts, when a Control Agreement is executed and delivered by all parties thereto with respect to such accounts, the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, prior and superior to any other Person except as provided under the applicable Control Agreement with
respect to the financial institution party thereto. 
 (b) Each of the Mortgages (if any) is effective to create in favor of the
Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified therein, each such Mortgage shall constitute a fully
perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all 
  

 65 







 
right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and
superior in right to any other Person (except Liens permitted by Section 8.3). Schedule 5.19(b) lists, as of the Closing Date, each parcel of owned real property and each leasehold interest in real property located in the United States and held
by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that has a value, in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower, in excess of $5,000,000. 

5.20 Solvency. (i) On the Closing Date, the Borrower is (on an individual basis), and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties
are (on a consolidated basis), in each case after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith, Solvent, and (ii) the Borrower and the other Loan
Parties (on a consolidated basis), after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith, will be and will continue to be Solvent. 

5.21 Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations constitute “senior debt,” “senior indebtedness,” “designated
senior debt,” “guarantor senior debt” or “senior secured financing” (or any comparable term) of each Loan Party under and as defined in any Junior Financing Documentation. 

5.22 Regulation H. No Mortgage (if any) encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been identified by
the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968. 

5.23 Certain Documents. The Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a complete and correct copy of the Acquisition
Documentation, including any amendments, supplements or modifications with respect to any of the foregoing. 
 5.24
Anti-Terrorism Laws. (a) No Loan Party, or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, any of its Subsidiaries, is in violation of any Anti-Terrorism Law or engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the
purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. 
 (b) None
of the Loan Parties, nor, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, any Subsidiaries of any Loan Party or their respective agents acting or benefiting in any capacity in connection with the Loans, Letters of Credit or other transactions hereunder, is
any of the following (each a “Blocked Person“): 
 (i) a Person that is listed in the annex to,
or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, Executive Order No. 13224;

(c) No Loan Party, or to the knowledge of any Loan Party, any of its agents acting in any capacity in connection with the Loans, Letters
of Credit or other transactions hereunder (i) conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Blocked Person or (ii) deals in, or otherwise engages in any
transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to Executive Order No. 13224.

loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated

may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment,
supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any
interest or forgive or reduce any interest or fee payable hereunder (except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates, which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Majority
Facility Lenders of each adversely affected Facility and (y) that any amendment or modification of the financial covenants or defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of
interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby; provided that neither any amendment, modification or waiver of a mandatory prepayment required hereunder, nor any amendment of Section 4.2 or any related definitions including Asset Sale, Excess Cash Flow, or
Recovery Event, shall constitute a 
  

 101 







 
reduction of the amount of, or an extension of the scheduled date of, any principal installment of any Loan or Note; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this
Section 11.1 without the written consent of such Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the
written consent of all Lenders; (iv) no amendment, waiver or consent which has the effect of enabling the Borrower to satisfy any condition to a Borrowing contained in Section 6.3 hereof which, but for such amendment, waiver or consent
would not be satisfied, shall be effective to require the Revolving Lenders to make any additional Revolving Loan, unless and until the Majority Facility Lenders (or, if applicable, all Revolving Lenders) shall have approved such amendment, waiver
or consent; (v) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Term Facility set forth in Section 6.2 (including in connection with any waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default) without the
written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the Term Facility; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 4.2(e), 4.8 or 11.7(a) of this Agreement or Section 6.5 of the Guarantee and Collateral
Agreement, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (vii) (x) reduce the amount of Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow required to be applied to prepay Loans under this Agreement or (y) amend, modify or waive any
provision of the Loan Documents that by its terms adversely affects the rights of one Facility in respect of Collateral in a manner different than another Facility, in each case without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders with
respect to each Facility adversely affected thereby; (viii) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility;
(ix) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 10 without the written consent of each Agent adversely affected thereby; (x) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11.6 to further restrict any Lender’s ability
to assign or otherwise transfer its obligations hereunder without the written consent of all Lenders, (xi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3.3, 3.4 or 3.15 without the written consent of the Swingline Lender;
(xii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Sections 3.7 to 3.15 without the written consent of the Issuing Lender and (xiii) amend, modify or waive (A) any provision of any Loan Document so as to alter the ratable sharing of
payments required thereby or (B) the definition of “Qualified Counterparty,” “Specified Hedge Agreement,” or “Obligations,” in each case in a manner adverse to any Qualified Counterparty with Obligations then
outstanding without the written consent of any such Qualified Counterparty. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the
Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of
Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the
Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder
(“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such 
  

 102 







 
Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the
Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such
refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be
substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period
after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. 
 If, in connection with any
proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination requiring the consent of all Lenders (including all Lenders under a single Facility), the consent of the Required Lenders (or Majority Facility Lenders, as the case may be) is obtained, but the
consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting
Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Person reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall have the right but not the obligation to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lenders, and such Non-Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon the
Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to the Administrative Agent or such Person, all of the Term Loans and Revolving Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all such Term Loans and
any outstanding Revolving Loans held by such Non-Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment and Assumption. In
addition to the foregoing, the Borrower may replace any Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to Section 4.13. 
 Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities with respect to
Incremental Term Loans to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents with the Term Loans, as applicable, and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility
Lenders; provided, that the conditions set forth in Section 2.4 are satisfied. 
 Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding
Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definitions of
“Required Lenders” and “Majority Facility Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided that, subject to the limitations set forth in the first paragraph of this
Section 11.1, any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the 
  

 103 







 
Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing
to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent
of such Defaulting Lender. 
 11.2 Notices. (a) All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be
either (i) in writing (including telecopy or e-mail communication) and mailed, telecopied or delivered or (ii) as and to the extent set forth in Section 11.2(b) and in the proviso to this Section 11.2(a), in an electronic medium

Broadway New York, New York 10036, Attention: Crystal Dadd, E-mail Address: crystal.dadd@morganstanley.com; or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties; provided,
however, that materials and information described in Section 11.2(b) shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions thereof or as otherwise specified to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent. All such
notices and other communications shall, when mailed, be effective four days after having been mailed, and when telecopied or E-mailed, be effective when properly transmitted, except that notices and communications to any Agent pursuant to Sections
2, 3, 4, 6 and 10 shall not be effective until received by such Agent. Delivery by telecopier of an executed counterpart of a signature page to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes or of any Exhibit hereto to be
executed and delivered hereunder shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof. 
 (b) The
Borrower hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all
notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, borrowing or other
extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor,
(iii) provides notice of any default or event of default under this Agreement or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any borrowing or other extension of credit
hereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an
electronic address specified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Agents in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the
Administrative Agent. The Borrower further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar secure electronic transmission system (the
“Platform”). 
  

 104 







 (c) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, 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 THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES
(COLLECTIVELY, “ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET. 

The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above
shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to
the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of
such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document. 

11.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender,
any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

11.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents
and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder 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 and so long as the Commitments of any Lender have not been terminated. 

 

 105 







 11.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. (a) The Borrower agrees (i) to pay or
reimburse each Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Issuing Lender for all its reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or
modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel to such parties (provided that such fees and disbursements shall not include fees and disbursements for more than one counsel plus one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) and filing and recording fees and
expenses, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter as such parties shall deem appropriate,
(ii) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Lender and Agent for all its documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to each Lender and of counsel to such parties, (iii) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Issuing Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers and
each Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes (other than amounts payable under Section 4.10(c)), if any, that
may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent
under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (iv) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Lender and Agent and their respective officers, directors,
employees, affiliates, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents (regardless of whether any Loan Party is or is not a party to any such
actions or suits) and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group
Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (iv),
collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found
by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims,
demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any 

 

 106 







 
of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee except to the extent found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily
from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be submitted to Jonathan Kennedy (Telephone No. (408) 546-3456) (Telecopy No.
(321) 729-1150), at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 11.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this
Section 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (b) To the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assets, 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 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 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 Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 (c) All
amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after demand therefor. 
 11.6 Successors
and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of
the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender
(and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except (x) to an assignee in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (y) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (e) of this Section or (z) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions
of paragraph (g) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors as assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 11.6 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Affiliates of each of the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may
assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that
any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) except in the case of an assignment to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, an assignment effected by the Administrative Agent in connection with the initial syndication of the Commitments or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or 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 (or, in the case of the Term Facility, $1,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

 

 107 







 (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan 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 tranches of Loans (if any) on a non-pro rata basis; 
 (iii) no consent
shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section and, in addition, the consent of: 

(A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (z) such assignment is an assignment of Term Loans to any institution identified to
the Borrower prior to the Closing Date and made by the Administrative Agent prior to the Syndication Date; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments
in respect of (x) the Term Facility if such assignment is to an Assignee that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (y) the Revolving Facility if such assignment is to an Assignee that is not a Lender with a
Revolving Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and 
 (C) (1)
in the case of 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), the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed), and (2) in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Commitment, the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender shall be
required for an assignment to an Assignee that is a Revolving Lender or an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender; 
  

 108 







 (iv) except in the case of assignments pursuant to paragraph (c) below,
the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (it being understood that payment of only one processing fee shall be
required in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more Approved Funds), and the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire; 

(v) no assignment shall be permitted to be made to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; and 

(vi) no assignment shall be permitted to be made to a natural person. 

Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) below, subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph
(d) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.9, 4.10, 4.11 and 11.5;
provided, that such Lender continues to comply with the requirements of Sections 4.10(d) and 4.10(e)). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6 shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 11.6 to the contrary, a Lender may assign any or all of its rights hereunder to an
Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender without (a) providing any notice (including, without limitation, any administrative questionnaire) to the Administrative Agent or any other Person or (b) delivering an executed
Assignment and Assumption to the Administrative Agent; provided that (A) such assigning Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, (B) the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender in connection with such assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement until an
Assignment and Assumption and an administrative questionnaire have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, (C) the failure of such assigning Lender to deliver an Assignment and Assumption or administrative questionnaire to the
Administrative Agent or any other Person shall not affect the legality, validity or binding effect of such assignment and (D) an Assignment and Assumption between an assigning Lender and its Affiliate or Approved Fund shall be effective as of
the date specified in such Assignment and Assumption. 
  

 109 







 (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in the United States 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 amount of the Loans and
L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Subject to the penultimate sentence of this paragraph (d), the entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In
the case of an assignment to an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund pursuant to paragraph (c), as to which an Assignment and Assumption and an administrative questionnaire are not delivered to the Administrative Agent, the assigning Lender
shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register (a “Related Party Register”) comparable to the Register on behalf of the Borrower. The Register or Related Party Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and any Lender at the Administrative Agent’s office at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(i) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) above, upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and
Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b)(iv) of
this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. Except as
otherwise provided in paragraph (c) above, no assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless and until it has been recorded in the Register (or, in the case of an assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) above, the
applicable Related Party Register) as provided in this paragraph (d). The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” 

(e) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or
more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that
(A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) no participation shall
be permitted to be made to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, nor any officer or director of any such Person. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the
sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the consent of each 
  

 110 







 
Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 11.1. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.9, 4.10 and 4.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant
also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. 

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.9 or 4.10 than the applicable Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender
shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.10 unless such Participant complies with Section 4.10(d). 
 (g)
Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any
other Person, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest or to any such sale or securitization; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of
its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (h) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in
Section 11.6(b). The Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided,
however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such
Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
 11.7 Sharing of Payments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent
that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall, at any time after the Loans and other amounts
payable hereunder shall immediately become due and payable pursuant to Section 9, receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off,
pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9.1(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other
Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral,
as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of 
  

 111 







 
such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted
Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 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 each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a director
creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation to the extent provided in clause (b) of this Section 11.7. 

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, subject to Section 10.11, each Lender shall have the
right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default which is continuing, upon any amount becoming due and
payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any
currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, the provisions of this Section 11.7 shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require or permit differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders. 

11.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic mail (in “.pdf” or
similar format) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

11.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
entire agreement of the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof
not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

limitation, the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder) or that has been consented to in accordance with Section 11.1; provided
that no such release shall occur if (x) such Subsidiary Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Junior Financing or (y) such Collateral continues to secure any Junior Financing or (ii) under the circumstances described
in paragraph (b) below. 
 (b) At such time as (i) the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations

(i) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify the Borrower of any request by any
Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such Governmental Authority) for disclosure of any such
non-public information prior to disclosure of such information.

            , 20     (the “Control Agreement”), among
                     (the
“Grantor”)1,
                    
2 in its capacity as a “securities intermediary”
as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC and/or a “bank” as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC (in such capacities, the “Financial Institution”) and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, as collateral agent
under the Credit Agreement (as defined below) (in such capacity, and together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned
in the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 27, 2010, (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among Intersil Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”), the Collateral Agent, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent (in such capacity, and together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”), Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent and U.S. Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as co-documentation agents. The Collateral Agent shall be referred to herein as the “Secured
Party”. All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. 

SECTION 1. Establishment of Collateral Accounts. The Financial Institution hereby confirms and agrees that: 

(a) The Financial Institution has established the following account[s]: 

(A) the “[identify exact title of account],” a [deposit account/securities account], with account number
[identify account number] in the name of [identify name of account holder] (the “             Account”); and 

(B) the “[identify exact title of account],” a [deposit account/securities account], with account number
[identify account number] in the name of [identify name of account holder] (the “             Account”). 

[Each] such account, and any successor account, is referred to herein [individually] as a “Collateral Account” [and collectively as the

 (b) The Financial Institution shall not change the name or account number of any Collateral
Account without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

 Ex. I-1 







 (c) Each of the Collateral Accounts is either a “securities account” (as defined
in Section 8-501 of the UCC) or a “deposit account” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC). 
 As used
herein “Deposit Account” shall mean any Collateral Account which is a “deposit account” (within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the UCC) and “Securities Account” shall mean any Collateral Account which is a
“securities account” (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC). 
 (d) If and to the extent any Collateral
Account is a Securities Account, the Grantor and the Financial Institution hereby agree: 
 (A) all securities or
other property underlying any financial assets credited to any Collateral Account shall be registered in the name of the Financial Institution, indorsed to the Financial Institution or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in
the name of the Financial Institution and in no case will any financial asset credited to any Collateral Account be registered in the name of the Grantor, payable to the order of the Grantor or specially indorsed to the Grantor except to the extent
the foregoing have been specially indorsed to the Financial Institution or in blank; 
 (B) all property
delivered to the Financial Institution pursuant to the Loan Documents will be promptly credited to one of the Collateral Accounts; and 

(C) the Financial Institution hereby agrees that each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset,
security, instrument or cash) credited to any Collateral Account that is a Securities Account shall be treated as a “financial asset” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) of the UCC. 

SECTION 2. Control of the Collateral Accounts. This Control Agreement evidences the Secured Party’s control over the Collateral Accounts for
purposes of the UCC (including Sections 9-104 and 9-106 thereof and Section 8-106 thereof). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the agreements between the Financial Institution and any Grantor governing the Collateral Accounts, if at
any time the Financial Institution shall receive any order from the Secured Party (i) directing disposition of funds in any Collateral Account or (ii) directing transfer or redemption of any financial asset relating to a Collateral
Account, the Financial Institution shall comply with such entitlement order or instruction without further consent by the Grantor or any other person. The Secured Party shall only give the Financial Institution the orders described above, including
a Notice of Sole Control (as defined below), upon the occurrence of an Event of Default. 
 SECTION 3. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off.
In the event that the Financial Institution has or subsequently obtains by agreement, by operation of law or otherwise a security interest in any Collateral Account or any security entitlement or cash credited thereto, the Financial Institution
hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security 
  

 Ex. I-2 







 
interest of the Secured Party. The financial assets, money and other items credited to any Collateral Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in
favor of any person other than the Secured Party (except that the Financial Institution may set off (i) all amounts due to the Financial Institution in respect of customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the
respective Collateral Account and (ii) the face amount of any checks which have been credited to such Collateral Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds). 

SECTION 4. Choice of Law. This Control Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Control Agreement shall be governed by, and
construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed the bank’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of
Section 9-304 of the UCC) and the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 8-110 of the UCC). [Each of] the Collateral Account[s] shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. 

SECTION 5. Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendment. 

(a) In the event of any conflict between this Control Agreement (or any portion thereof) and any other agreement now existing or
hereafter entered into among the parties hereto, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. 
 (b) No amendment or
modification of this Control Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all of the parties hereto. 

(c) The Financial Institution hereby confirms and agrees that: 

(A) there are no other agreements entered into between the Financial Institution and the Grantor with respect to any
Collateral Account [except for [identify other agreements] (the “Account Agreements”)]; 
 (B) it has
not entered into, and until the termination of the this Control Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with any other person relating the Collateral Accounts and/or any financial assets credited thereto pursuant to which it has agreed to
comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) or instructions (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of such other person; and 

(C) it has not entered into, and until the termination of this Control Agreement will not enter into, any agreement with
the Grantor or the Secured Party purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Financial Institution to comply with entitlement orders or instructions. 
  


 Ex. I-3 







 SECTION 6. Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Party and of the Grantor in the
Collateral Accounts, the Financial Institution does not know of any lien on or claim to, or interest in, any Collateral Account or in any “financial asset” (as defined in Section 8-102(a) of the UCC) credited thereto. If any person
asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against the Collateral Accounts or in any financial asset carried therein, the Financial Institution will
promptly notify the Secured Party and the Grantor thereof. 
 SECTION 7. Maintenance of Accounts. In addition to, and not in lieu of, the
obligation of the Financial Institution to honor entitlement orders and instructions as set forth in Section 2 hereof, the Financial Institution agrees to maintain the Collateral Accounts as follows: 

(a) Notice of Sole Control. If at any time the Secured Party delivers to the Financial Institution a Notice of Sole Control in
substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A hereto (a “Notice of Sole Control”), the Financial Institution agrees that after receipt of such notice, it will take all instruction with respect to the Collateral Account[s]
referenced in such notice solely from the Secured Party and shall not comply with instructions or entitlement orders of any other person. 

(b) Statements and Confirmations. The Financial Institution shall, and is hereby authorized and instructed by the Grantors, to
(i) promptly furnish copies of all statements, confirmations and other correspondence concerning any Collateral Account and, if applicable, any financial assets credited thereto simultaneously to each of the Grantor and the Secured Party at the
address for each set forth in Section 12 of this Control Agreement, (ii) make available other information relating to any Collateral Account that the Financial Institution makes available to the Grantors and (iii) disclose to the
Secured Party all information requested by the Secured Party regarding any Collateral Account. 
 (c) Tax Reporting. All
items of income, gain, expense and loss, if any, recognized in any Collateral Account and all interest, if any, relating to any Collateral Account, shall be reported to the Internal Revenue Service and all state and local taxing authorities under
the name and taxpayer identification number of the Grantor. 
 (d) Voting Rights. Until such time as the Financial
Institution receives a Notice of Sole Control pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 7, the Grantor shall direct the Financial Institution with respect to the voting of any financial assets credited to the Collateral Account[s].

 (e) Permitted Investments. Until such time as the Financial Institution receives a Notice of Sole Control signed by
the Secured Party, the Grantor shall direct the Financial Institution with respect to the selection of investments, if any; provided, however, that the Financial Institution shall not honor any instruction to purchase any investments other than
investments of a type describe on Exhibit B hereto. 
 SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Financial Institution.
The Financial Institution hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants: 
 (a) [each] [the] Collateral
Account has each been established as set forth in Section 1 and such Collateral Accounts will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement; 

 

 Ex. I-4 







 (b) [each] [the] Deposit Account is a deposit account (within the meaning of
Section 9-102 of the UCC), and [each] [the] Securities Account is a securities account (within the meaning of Section 8-501 of the UCC); 

(c) the Financial Institution constitutes a “bank” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC); 

(d) the Financial Institution constitutes a “securities intermediary” (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC); and

 (e) this Control Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Financial Institution. 

SECTION 9. Indemnification of Financial Institution. The Grantor and the Secured Party hereby agree that (a) the Financial Institution is released
from any and all liabilities to the Grantor and the Secured Party arising from the terms of this Control Agreement and the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from the
Financial Institution’s negligence and (b) the Grantor, its successors and assigns shall at all times indemnify and save harmless the Financial Institution from and against any and all claims, actions and suits of others arising out of the
terms of this Control Agreement or the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such claims, actions and suits arise from the Financial Institution’s negligence, and from and against any and all
liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising by reason of the same, until the termination of this Control Agreement. If the Grantor has made any indemnity payment pursuant to
this Section 9 and such payment has fully indemnified the recipient thereof and the recipient thereafter collects any payment from others in respect of such indemnified amounts, then the recipient will repay to the Grantor an amount equal to
such amount it has collected from others in respect of such indemnified amounts. The indemnities in this Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

SECTION 10. Successors; Assignment. The terms of this Control Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and
their respective corporate successors or assigns. The Grantors shall not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Control Agreement without the prior written consent of the Financial Institution and the Secured Party. The
Secured Party may transfer (including by assignment) its rights and duties hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents upon prior written notice to the Financial Institution. 

SECTION 11. Merger or Consolidation of Financial Institution. Without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the
parties hereto, any bank into which the Financial Institution may be merged or with which it may be consolidated, or any bank resulting from any merger to which the Financial Institution shall be a party, shall be the successor of the Financial
Institution hereunder and shall be bound by all provisions hereof which are binding upon the Financial Institution.

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each undersigned entity (collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group
Member”) that is a party to this intercompany promissory note (this “Promissory Note”) as a Payor (as defined below) promises to pay to the order of such other Group Member that is a Loan Party (as defined in the Credit

loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other indebtedness for borrowed money now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown either on Schedule A attached hereto (and any continuation
thereof) or in the books and records of such Payee, in each case other than the European Note (as defined below) which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not be subject to this Promissory Note in any respect. The failure to show any such

 The Payor, and any endorser of this Promissory Note hereby, waives presentment, demand,
protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

Payee’s obligations, if any, under the Loan Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of each such Payee under this
Promissory Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor. 

Each Payee agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against the Payor or any endorser of this Promissory Note, or against any of
their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until such time as (i) the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations and
obligations under or in respect of Hedge Agreements) shall have been paid in full or Cash Collateralized and (ii) the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding; provided, that the Payor may make
payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by a Payee pursuant to this Promissory Note shall be received by the Payor
subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents that are applicable to the Payor. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from the Payor, all rights and Liens of such Payee, whether now or
hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any Property of the Payor (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are
subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties in such Property. Except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any such Property or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect
of, any such Property, whether by judicial action or otherwise, until such time as (i) the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations and obligations under or in respect of
Hedge Agreements) shall have been paid in full or Cash Collateralized and (ii) the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding. 

Except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, if all or any part of the Property of the Payor, or the proceeds thereof, is subject
to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of the Payor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other
action or proceeding, or if the business of the Payor is dissolved or if all or substantially all of the Property of the Payor is sold, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash or other
property which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to this Promissory Note (“Payor Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Collateral Agent for application to any of the Obligations, due or to
become due, until such time as (i) the Loans, the Reimbursement Obligations and the other Obligations (other than Unasserted Contingent Obligations and obligations under or in respect of Hedge Agreements) shall have been paid in full or Cash
Collateralized and (ii) the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding. Each Payee irrevocably 

 

 Ex. J-2 







 
authorizes, empowers and appoints the Collateral Agent as such Payee’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable) to demand, sue for, collect and
receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of such Payee, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the
Collateral Agent’s own name or in the name of such Payee or otherwise, as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of this Promissory Note. Each Payee also agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any such
proofs of claim in respect of the Payor Indebtedness reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding (and the Payee shall to be entitled to withdraw such vote), receive and
collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made on Payor Indebtedness in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, should any payment, distribution, security or other investment property or instrument or any proceeds thereof be received by any Payee upon or with respect to Payor Indebtedness owing
to such Payee prior to such time as the Obligations have been performed and paid in full in cash in immediately available funds and all commitments to extend credit under any Loan Document have expired or been terminated, such Payee shall receive
and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or
assignment of such Payee where necessary or advisable in the Collateral Agent’s judgment), for application to any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and, until so delivered, the same shall be segregated from the other
assets of such Payee and held in trust by such Payee as the property of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. If such Payee fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent or any
of its officers, employees or representatives are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. 
 The Secured Parties shall
be third party beneficiaries of the subordination provisions contained herein and shall be entitled to enforce such subordination provisions. 

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 This Promissory Note may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
