Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §2.1 
  


	 	(b)	 In this Agreement and the Schedules hereto, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the interpretation
provisions contained in Section 1.2 of Schedule A (Common Definitions and Rules of Interpretation – Interpretation) shall apply. 


  

	2.	 GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF THE LOANS 



 

	 	2.1	 Purpose and Scope of the Loans 



 

	 	(a)	 The Borrower shall use the proceeds of any Senior Debt for the respective purposes specified in the relevant
Facility Agreement or other applicable Senior Debt Instrument or Permitted Senior Debt Hedging Instrument pursuant to which such Senior Debt is incurred. 


  

	 	(b)	 No Facility Lender or Facility Agent or the Intercreditor Agent is bound to monitor or verify the application
of any amount borrowed by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or any other Finance Document. 


  

	 	2.2	 Sequence of Advances of Senior Debt 



 

	 	(a)	 Subject to meeting the applicable conditions in Article 4 (Conditions Precedent) and during the Term
Loan Availability Period, Advances by the Term Lenders under the Term Loan Facility Agreement in respect of Term Loan Facility Debt Commitments shall be made until the available Term Loan Facility Debt Commitments are reduced to zero.



  

	 	(b)	 The sequencing of Advances under any Senior Debt (including Additional Senior Debt) shall be as set forth in
the Senior Debt Instrument for such Senior Debt. 


  

	 	2.3	 Disbursement Procedures 



 

	 	(a)	 All disbursements of Loans shall be made to the Borrower (except as otherwise provided in the Finance
Documents). 


  

	 	(b)	 Disbursements of Loans shall be requested by the Borrower in a duly completed Disbursement Request
substantially in the form set forth in the applicable Facility Agreement and may be requested as provided in the relevant Facility Agreement. 


  

	 	(c)	 The Borrower shall request disbursements of Loans by delivering to the Intercreditor Agent and each Facility

 §2.4 
  


	 	(d)	 Each Disbursement Request shall be irrevocable and the obligation of each Facility Lender to make an Advance of

	 	2.4	 Pro Rata Advances 



 

	 	(a)	 Except with respect to (i) any Facility Debt Commitments that have been suspended pursuant to any Facility

commitment fees during the Availability Period under a respective Facility Agreement (which shall be borrowed pursuant to the terms of such respective Facility Agreement), the Borrower shall borrow concurrently under each of the Facility Agreements
whose Facility Debt Commitments have not been fully borrowed or cancelled and shall borrow pro rata in the proportion that the unborrowed portion of each Facility Lender’s Facility Debt Commitment bears to the total of the unborrowed
portion of the Senior Debt Commitments of all relevant Facility Lenders under the applicable Facility Agreements. If Advances cannot be made exactly pro rata due solely to minimum disbursement amounts and required integral multiples of
disbursements under any Facility Agreement, Advances shall be made in amounts as near to such exactly proportionate amounts as possible, to the extent reasonably practicable and in a manner that is consistent, fair and equitable across affected
Facility Agreements, and shall be deemed to be Advances in compliance with this Section 2.4 (Pro Rata Advances).

are not received from any Facility Lender by the close of business on the next succeeding Business Day after the date on which any such disbursement is due to be received.

by the termination date of the last to terminate of the Qualifying LNG SPAs then in effect and, if applicable, incremental Qualifying LNG SPAs entered into in respect of sales of LNG associated with any Expansion being funded by such Expansion
Senior Debt and produces a Fixed Projected DSCR of at least 1.40:1.00 commencing on the first Quarterly Payment Date following the incurrence of such Expansion Senior Debt, through the terms of such Qualifying LNG SPAs (with such ratio calculated

	 	8.3	 Amendment of LNG SPAs 



Except to the extent an amendment or modification to a Qualifying LNG SPA is required by applicable law or regulation of any Governmental
Authority, CCL shall not agree to: 
  

	 	(a)	 any amendment or modification of the price or quantity provisions of any Qualifying LNG SPA:



  

	 	(i)	 if such amendment or modification results in a breach of Section 8.1 (LNG SPA Maintenance); and



  

	 	(ii)	 unless after giving effect to such amendment or modification, the Fixed Projected DSCR starting from the
Quarterly Payment Date following the date of such amendment or modification for each calendar year thereafter through the Qualifying Term of the Qualifying LNG SPAs then in effect is at least the lower of: 



 

	 	(A)	 a Fixed Projected DSCR of 1.40:1; and 



 

	 	(B)	 the Fixed Projected DSCR before such change, 



and CCL has certified the same to the Intercreditor Agent;

inconsistent with the minimum credit support requirements of the Finance Documents for Qualifying LNG SPAs; provided, in each case, that any such amendment shall be permitted if CCL notifies the Intercreditor Agent that it has elected for
such amended or modified Qualifying LNG SPA to cease to be a Qualifying LNG SPA for purposes of the Finance Documents and, after giving effect to such amendment, the amount of all Senior Debt (excluding Excluded Working Capital Debt and excluding
all Indebtedness under Permitted Senior Debt Hedging Instruments) outstanding is capable of being amortized to a zero balance by the termination date of the last to terminate of the Qualifying LNG SPAs then in effect and produces a Fixed Projected
DSCR of at least 1.40:1.00 commencing on the first Quarterly Payment Date following such cessation of such LNG SPA as a Qualifying LNG SPA for each calendar year through the Qualifying Term of the Qualifying LNG SPAs then in effect (with such ratio
being calculated on a pro forma basis giving effect to such cessation).

Receipt by the Intercreditor Agent of a certificate from the Borrower (confirmed to be reasonable by the Insurance Advisor) confirming that

Hedging Instruments) then-outstanding is capable of being amortized to a zero balance by the termination date of the last to terminate of the Qualifying LNG SPAs then in effect and produces a Fixed Projected DSCR of at least 1.40:1.00 through the
terms of such Qualifying LNG SPAs (with such ratio calculated using such Qualifying LNG SPAs, and using an interest rate equal to the weighted average interest rate of Senior Debt (excluding Excluded Working Capital Debt) then-outstanding).

	 	(a)	 If any Facility Lender requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Facility
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Facility Lender pursuant to Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) or requests compensation under Section 22.1 (Increased
Costs), then such Facility Lender (at the request of the Borrower) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans under the Finance Documents or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates or take any other reasonable steps not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions or the internal policies of such Facility Lender that it would otherwise
take in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other financing agreements if, in the reasonable judgment of such Facility Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Article 21
(Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) or Section 22.1 (Increased Costs), as applicable, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Facility Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and
would not otherwise, in the reasonable opinion of such Facility Lender, be disadvantageous or prejudicial to such Facility Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay and/or indemnify any Facility Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred
by such Facility Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 


  

	 	(b)	 If any Facility Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or if any
Governmental Authority has asserted after the Stage 3 Closing Date that it is unlawful, for such Facility Lender or its applicable lending office to fund or maintain its Loans (an “Illegality Event”), such Facility Lender shall, in
good-faith consultation with the Borrower, take all reasonable steps to mitigate any circumstances which arise and which would result in any amount becoming payable under or pursuant to, or cancelled pursuant to, Section 3.4(a)(vi)
(Mandatory Prepayments – Illegality), including transferring its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents to another Affiliate or lending office and, to the extent applicable, converting its outstanding Loans as
permitted under the relevant Facility Agreement; provided that this clause (b) in no way limits the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Finance Documents. If, notwithstanding its obligations under this clause (b), such Facility
Lender is unable to fund or maintain its Loans as a result of such Illegality Event, 



  
 -107- 

Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §19.5 
  


	 	
the Facility Lender shall promptly notify its Facility Agent upon becoming aware of that Illegality Event, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail all relevant information about such
Illegality Event, and such Facility Agent shall promptly notify and provide such information to the Intercreditor Agent, who shall forward such notice to the Borrower. 


 

	 	(c)	 Subject to clause (d) below, if: 



 

	 	(i)	 (A) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Facility Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Facility Lender pursuant to clause (a) above or (B) any Facility Lender requests compensation under clause (a) above, and, in each case, such Facility Lender has declined or is
unable to designate a different lending office or assign its rights and obligations to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates or take any other reasonable steps in accordance with clause (a) above; 



 

	 	(ii)	 any Facility Lender notifies the Borrower of an Illegality Event pursuant to clause (b) above;



  

	 	(iii)	 any Facility Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender; or



  

	 	(iv)	 any Facility Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender,



 then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Facility Lender and its Facility Agent as
provided herein, require such Facility Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by the applicable Facility Agreement), all of its interests, rights (other
than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) or Section 22.1 (Increased Costs), as applicable) and obligations under the applicable Facility
Agreement and the related Finance Documents to an Acceptable Lender that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Facility Lender, if a Facility Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: 

 

	 	(I)	 such Facility Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the Senior Debt Obligations due and
payable to such Facility Lender at the time from such assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 



 

	 	(II)	 in the case any such assignment resulting from a claim for indemnification under Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities), such assignment shall result in a reduction in such payment of Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Facility Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any
Facility Lender thereafter; 



  
 -108- 

Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §19.5 
  


	 	(III)	 in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 22.1
(Increased Costs), such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation thereafter; 


  

	 	(IV)	 such assignment may be made on a non pro rata basis to existing or
non-affected Facility Lenders but otherwise subject to Section 3.6 (Prepayment Fees and Breakage Costs) and the transfer terms of the applicable Facility Agreement; 



 

	 	(V)	 such assignment does not conflict with applicable law or regulations; 



 

	 	(VI)	 in the case of any assignment resulting from a Facility Lender becoming a
Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent; and 



 

	 	(VII)	 the Borrower shall have paid to the Facility Agent the assignment fee (if any). 



 

	 	(d)	 A Facility Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation pursuant to clause
(c) above if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Facility Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation pursuant to clause (c) above cease to apply. Notwithstanding the
satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) or Section 22.1 (Increased Costs), a Facility Lender shall have the right to refuse to be
replaced pursuant to sub-clause (c)(i) above; provided that the Borrower shall no longer be obligated to pay such Facility Lender any of the compensation or additional amounts incurred or accrued under
Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) or Section 22.1 (Increased Costs) from and after the date that such replacement would have occurred but for such Facility Lender’s refusal.



  

	 	(e)	 As a condition of the right of the Borrower to remove any Facility Lender pursuant to this Section 19.5
(Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders), the Borrower shall either: 


  

	 	(i)	 arrange for the assignment or novation of any Permitted Hedging Instruments with such Facility Lender or any of
its Affiliates simultaneously with such removal; or 


  

	 	(ii)	 terminate the applicable Permitted Hedging Instruments and pay any relevant Hedging Termination Amount.

 §19.6 
  


	 	(f)	 Each party hereto agrees that (i) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 19.5(f)
(Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders) may be effected pursuant to an assignment and assumption executed by the Borrower, the relevant Facility Agent and the assignee and (b) the Facility Lender required to make such assignment
need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such
assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable assignee; provided, further that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the
parties thereto. 


  

	 	19.6	 Transfers by a Facility Lender 



Facility Lenders with rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Finance Documents to which it is a party (in its capacity as a
Facility Lender) (an “Existing Facility Lender”) may not assign or transfer, novate or otherwise dispose of any of their rights or obligations in existence at such time except in accordance with the relevant Facility Agreement, and
any attempted assignment or transfer without complying with the provisions of this Section 19.6 (Transfers by a Facility Lender) shall be void and invalid. 
  

	 	19.7	 Register 



The Facility Agent under each Facility Agreement shall maintain a register of Lenders under such Facility Agreement in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the relevant Facility Agreement (the “Register”). 
  

	 	19.8	 Resulting Increased Costs 



If: 
  

	 	(a)	 any assignment or transfer of all or any part of the rights and/or obligations of a Facility Lender pursuant to
this Agreement and the applicable Facility Agreement; or 


  

	 	(b)	 any change in a Facility Lender’s facility office from that described in Schedule C (List of Senior
Creditors, Senior Creditor Group Representatives, Senior Debt Commitments / Obligations, Senior Debt Instruments / Permitted Senior Debt Hedging Instruments, Addresses for Notice of Relevant Senior Creditor Group Representative) to the
Common Security and Account Agreement,

consequence of circumstances which are prevailing at that time, in the Borrower being obliged to pay any incurred costs (whether as a result of increased costs, illegality or fees in respect of Security Documents, Direct Agreements or perfection of
security interests or similar provisions, except as a result of the tax gross-ups provided for under Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities)) or indemnities
which would not have been payable if such assignment, novation, transfer or change of office had not occurred, then, unless such assignment, novation, transfer or change in facility office was made at the request of the Borrower in accordance with
mitigation provisions of the Finance Documents, the Facility Lender shall only be entitled to receive those amounts to the extent that such amounts would have been payable in connection with the Existing Facility Lender or the Existing Facility
Lender’s facility office had the assignment, transfer or change in facility office not occurred. 
  

	20.	 SUBORDINATION

	 	21.1	 Withholding Tax Gross-Up 



Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under or in connection with any Finance Document shall be made without
deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good-faith discretion of the Borrower or the relevant Facility Agent, as applicable) requires the deduction or withholding of
any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower or the applicable Facility Agent, then the Borrower or the applicable Facility Agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities)), the relevant Finance Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 
  

	 	21.2	 Payment of Other Taxes

Indemnities)) payable or paid by, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to, such Finance Party or Facility Agent (or Affiliate) in connection with a Finance Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Finance Party (with a
copy to the relevant Facility Agent), or by a Facility Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Finance Party, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

	 	21.4	 Indemnification by the Facility Lenders 



Each Facility Lender shall severally indemnify its Facility Agent, within 20 Business Days after written demand therefor, for (a) any
Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Facility Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified such Facility Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (b) any Taxes
attributable to such Facility Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 19.6 (Transfers by a Facility Lender) and the relevant Facility Agreement relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (c) any
Excluded Taxes attributable to such Facility Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by such Facility Agent in connection with any Finance Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Facility Lender by its Facility Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Each Facility Lender hereby authorizes its Facility Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Facility Lender under any Finance Document or otherwise payable by such Facility Agent to the Facility Lender from any other
source against any amount due to such Facility Agent under this Section 21.4 (Indemnification by the Facility Lenders).

under any Finance Document shall deliver to the Borrower and its Facility Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Facility Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the
Borrower or such Facility Agent as shall permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Facility Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Facility Agent, shall deliver such
other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or such Facility Agent as shall enable the Borrower or such Facility Agent to determine whether or not such Facility Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
sub-clauses (b)(i), (b)(ii) and (b)(iv) below) shall not be required if, in the Facility Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Facility Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Facility Lender.

pursuant to this Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities)), the relevant Facility Lender shall pay the Borrower an amount equal to such refund or credit, but only to the extent of indemnity payments
made under this Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities) with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit, and net of costs and expenses (including Taxes) and without interest (other than
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit). The Borrower, upon the request of the Facility Lender or its Affiliate, shall repay to the Facility Lender or its Affiliate the amount paid over pursuant to
the preceding sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that the Facility Lender or its Affiliate is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, in no event shall the Facility Lender or its Affiliate be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place the Facility Lender or its
Affiliate in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Facility Lender or its Affiliate would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund or credit had not been
deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Facility Lender or its Affiliate to make available its
Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
  

	 	21.7	 Evidence of Payments 



As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Article 21 (Tax Gross-Up and Indemnities), such Loan Party shall deliver to the relevant Facility Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent.

	 	(iii)	 impose on any Facility Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement
or Loans made by such Facility Lender; 


 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Finance Party of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Finance Party hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Finance Party, the Borrower shall within the time period specified in clause (b) below pay to such Finance Party such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Finance Party
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered (except to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 19.5 (Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders) or Section 19.8 (Resulting Increased

	 	(b)	 If any Facility Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or
would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Facility Lender’s capital or (without duplication) on the capital of such Facility Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Facility Debt
Commitments of such Facility Lender or the Loans made by such Facility Lender to a level below that which such Facility Lender or such Facility Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration
such Facility Lender’s policies and the policies of such Facility Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time upon notice by such Facility Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Facility
Lender within 30 days following the receipt of such notice by the Facility Lender such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Facility Lender or (without duplication) such Facility Lender’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered (except to the extent the Borrower is excused from payment pursuant to Section 19.5 (Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders) or Section 19.8 (Resulting Increased Costs)).

amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. Such certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 §22.2 
  


	 	(d)	 Failure or delay on the part of any Finance Party to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 22.1
(Increased Costs) shall not constitute a waiver of such Finance Party’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Finance Party pursuant to this Section 22.1
(Increased Costs) for any increased costs or reductions incurred or reductions suffered more than 225 days prior to the date that such Facility Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or
reductions, and of such Facility Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 225-day

Lender, as determined by such Facility Lender, to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause (e) shall not impose an obligation on a
Facility Lender to provide information regarding compensation claimed and/or paid under any other specific loan agreement; provided that such Facility Lender shall, upon request from the Borrower, provide a written confirmation to the
Borrower regarding whether it is the general policy or practice of such Facility Lender, as the case may be, to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements.

obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purposes of the set-off. The rights of each Facility Lender, each Facility Agent and the Intercreditor Agent under this
Section 23.2 (Right of Set-Off) are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Facility Lender, such Facility
Agent and the Intercreditor Agent, as applicable, may have. Each Facility Lender shall notify its respective Facility Agent and the Borrower forthwith upon the exercise or purported exercise of any right of
set-off, giving full details in relation thereto, and such Facility Agent shall promptly inform the Intercreditor Agent in writing, who shall inform the other Facility Agents of the same. Any amounts set off
by any Facility Lender in accordance with this Section 23.2 (Right of Set-Off) or under this Agreement shall be subject to the sharing arrangements set forth in Section 2.3(b) (Payments and
Prepayments – Sharing of Non-Pro Rata Payments) of the Common Security and Account Agreement.

(to any extent) in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating or rendering unenforceable the remaining terms or provisions hereof
or the application of such term or provision to circumstances other than those to which it is held illegal, invalid, prohibited or unenforceable. Any such illegality, invalidity, prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction and the Parties hereto shall enter into good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal, prohibited or unenforceable term or provision with a view to
obtaining the same commercial effect as this Agreement would have had if such term or provision had been legal, valid and enforceable. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Parties hereto waive any provision of law that renders any term or
provision of this Agreement illegal, invalid, prohibited or unenforceable in any respect.

for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each of the Loan Parties agrees that it shall not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a
fiduciary or similar duty to the respective Loan Party, in connection with such transactions or the process leading thereto.

	 	23.22	 USA Patriot Act Notice 



Each Facility Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, each Facility Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any
Facility Lender) and the Intercreditor Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Facility Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name, taxpayer identification number and business address of the Borrower and other information that shall allow such Facility Lender, Facility Agent or the Intercreditor Agent, as applicable,

	 	23.23	 Amendment and Restatement 



This Agreement amends, restates and supersedes the existing Amended and Restated Common Terms Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2018, as
amended to the date hereof, in its entirety, but does not constitute a novation thereof or any document entered into in connection therewith. It is the intent of the parties that the Security Interests granted in the Collateral, and the guarantees
granted by the Guarantors, in each case under and pursuant to the Common Security and Account Agreement, shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the Senior Debt Obligations arising under this Agreement. 

 

	 	23.24	 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs 



To the extent that the Finance Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Instruments or any other agreement or
instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “US Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect
of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Finance Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States
or any other state of the United States): 
  

	 	(a)	 In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”)
becomes subject to a proceeding under a US Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any
rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the US Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC




  
 -133- 

Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §23.25 

 


	 	
and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party
or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a US Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Finance Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be
exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the US Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Finance Documents were governed by the laws of
the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party
with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 

  

	 	(b)	 As used in this Section 23.24 (Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs), the following terms
have the following meanings: 


 “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such
term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 
 “Covered Entity” means any
of the following: 
  

	 	(i)	 a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §
252.82(b); 


  

	 	(ii)	 a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §
47.3(b); or 


  

	 	(iii)	 a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §
382.2(b). 


 “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in
accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 
 “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term
“qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 
  

	 	23.25	 Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR 



 

	 	(a)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Facility Agreement, if a Benchmark Transition Event
and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the Benchmark Replacement will replace the Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and




  
 -134- 

Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §23.25 

 


	 	
under any Finance Document in respect of any Benchmark setting effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is
provided to the Lenders (without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Finance Document), so long as the Intercreditor Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to
such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Intercreditor Parties. 

  

	 	(b)	 No Hedging Instrument shall constitute a Finance Document for purposes of this Section 23.25.



  

	 	(c)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Facility Agreement, the Intercreditor Agent, with the
written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Facility
Agreement, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any Facility Agreement. 



 

	 	(d)	 The Intercreditor Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.
Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Intercreditor Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders), with the written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), if and where
required, pursuant to this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of
an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party
to this Agreement or any Facility Agreement or any notification by the Intercreditor Agent, except as expressly required pursuant to this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR). 



  
 -135- 

Second A&R Common Terms Agreement 













 §23.25 

 


	 	(e)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Facility Agreement, at any time (including in
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement): 


  

	 	(i)	 if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such
Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Intercreditor Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Intercreditor Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for
any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor; and 


  

	 	(ii)	 if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a
screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement),
then the Intercreditor Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 



 

	 	(f)	 Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the
Borrower may revoke any request for a Term SOFR Loan to be made, and any request for a conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Term SOFR Loan and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term SOFR Loan into a
request for a Base Rate Loan and to have revoked any request for a conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a Term SOFR Loan. Furthermore, if any Term SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a
Benchmark Unavailability Period, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR), such Term SOFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the
Intercreditor Agent to, and shall constitute, a Base Rate Loan. 


  

	 	(g)	 The provisions of this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR) shall apply to all
Facility Agreements and to the extent any provisions of this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR) and the definitions used herein are inconsistent with any provision of such Facility Agreements or any other Finance
Documents, the provisions of this Section 23.25 (Permanent Discontinuation of Term SOFR) shall be controlling.

	 	23.26	 Restricted Lenders 



Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.1(h) (Sanctions and Anti-Corruption Laws) or Section 12.6 (Compliance
with Law) of this Agreement, in relation to each Facility Lender that is incorporated in Germany or that otherwise notifies its Facility Agent to this effect (each a “Restricted Lender”), the representations and undertakings in
the provisions of such Sections shall only apply for the benefit of such Restricted Lender and shall only be given by a Loan Party to such Restricted Lender to the extent that the sanctions provisions would not result in (i) any violation of,
conflict with or liability under EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96 or (ii) a violation or conflict with section 7 of the foreign trade rules (AWV) (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung) (in connection with section 4 paragraph 1 no. 3 and Section 19
paragraph 3 no. 1(a) foreign trade law (AWG) (Außenwirtschaftsgesetz)) or a similar anti-boycott statute as in effect in that Restricted Lender’s home jurisdiction.

example, inclusion of both the singular and plural), may be included for emphasis or clarity, and any such usage shall not give rise to any negative implication in relation to any other usage, which other usage shall nonetheless be interpreted
strictly in accordance with the rules of interpretation set forth herein; 


  

	 	(q)	 unless the contrary indication appears, a reference to a time of day is a reference to the time of day in New
York, New York, United States; 


  

	 	(r)	 the words “hereof,” “herein,” “hereto” and
“hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement;
