 CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of July 19, 2018 among THE SHERWIN-WILLIAMS
COMPANY, SHERWIN-WILLIAMS LUXEMBOURG S.à r.l., SHERWIN-WILLIAMS CANADA INC., SHERWIN-WILLIAMS UK HOLDING LIMITED, the LENDERS party hereto, the ISSUING LENDERS party hereto and CITIBANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent. 

The Borrowers (such term and each other capitalized term used and not otherwise defined herein having the meaning assigned to
it in Article I) have requested the Lenders extend credit to enable them to borrow on a revolving credit basis on and after the date hereof and at any time and from time to time prior to the Maturity Date a principal amount not in excess of
$2,000,000,000 at any time outstanding. The proceeds of borrowings and other extensions of credit hereunder are to be used for general corporate purposes, including the financing of working capital requirements. 

The Lenders are willing to extend such credit to the Borrowers on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth.

 Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 DEFINITIONS

 Section 1.01     Defined Terms. As used in this
Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 
 “ABR”, when used in reference to any
Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 

“Administrative Agent” means Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders
hereunder, and its successors in such capacity. 
 “Administrative Agent’s Office” means, the
Administrative Agent’s address and, as appropriate, account as set forth in Schedule 9.01, or such other address or account as the Administrative Agent may from time to time notify the Borrowers and the Lenders. 

“Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative
Agent. 
 “Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or
indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified. 

“Agent Indemnitee” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 9.03(c). 

“Agent Party” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 9.01(c). 

“Agreement” means this Credit Agreement as the same may hereafter be modified, supplemented or amended from
time to time. 
 “Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the highest of
(a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and 







 
(c) the Eurocurrency Rate for a one month interest period plus 1.00%; provided that, if the Alternate Base Rate as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for
such purposes under this Agreement. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the
Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, respectively. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.12(c) hereof then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater
of clauses (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. 

“Alternative Currency” means each of (a) Euro, (b) Sterling, (c) Canadian Dollars and (d) each
other currency (other than Dollars) that is approved in accordance with Section 1.05; provided, however, that if the interest rate with respect to any Alternative Currency becomes unavailable for any reason, such Alternative
Currency shall not be considered an Alternative Currency hereunder until such time as an interest rate with respect to such Alternative Currency is agreed upon by the Company and the applicable Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof. 

“Alternative Currency Equivalent” means, at any time, with respect to any amount denominated in Dollars, the
equivalent amount thereof in the applicable Alternative Currency, as determined by the Administrative Agent, at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate (determined in respect of the most recent Revaluation Date) for the purchase of such currency
with Dollars. 
 “Anti-Corruption Laws” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 3.14. 

“Applicable Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender, the percentage of the total Commitments
represented by such Lender’s Commitment; provided that, in the case of Section 2.18 when a Defaulting Lender shall exist, “Applicable Percentage” shall mean the percentage of the total Commitments (disregarding any
Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) represented by such Lender’s Commitment. If the Commitments have been terminated or have expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the amounts of the outstanding Loans or, if no
Loans are outstanding, based upon the Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments and to any Lender’s status as a Defaulting Lender at the time of the determination. 

“Applicable Rate” means, for any day, in connection with the commitment fees payable hereunder, or in
connection with the interest accruing on any Eurocurrency Loan or ABR Loan, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Commitment Fee Rate”, “Eurocurrency Spread” or “ABR Spread”, as the case may
be, based upon the ratings by S&P and Moody’s, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt.

 For purposes of the foregoing, subject to the last two sentences of this
definition, (i) if any of S&P or Moody’s shall not have in effect a rating for the Index Debt (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last two sentences of this definition), then such rating agency shall be deemed
to have established a rating in Category 7; (ii) if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by S&P and Moody’s for the Index Debt shall fall within different Categories, then (a) if the applicable ratings differ by
one level, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the higher of the applicable ratings and (b) if the applicable ratings differ by more than one level, then the Applicable Rate shall be based on the level that is one level lower than the higher

on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of one of S&P or Moody’s shall change, or if one of such rating agencies shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt
obligations, the Company and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the
Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

(a)        Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment
denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption. If,


  
 25 








 
in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or
practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its
lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest
Period. 
 (b)        Each provision of this Agreement shall be
subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or
practices relating to the Euro. 
 (c)        Each provision of this
Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or
practices relating to the change in currency. 
 Section 1.07
    Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents. 

(a)        The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rates as
of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of Borrowings denominated in Alternative Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting
any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided
herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent. 

(b)        Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing,
conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing or Eurocurrency Rate Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount
shall be the relevant Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent. 

(c)        The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar
Equivalent of the LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency based on the Spot Rate (i) as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Company and (ii) on or about the date of the related notice
requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit. If, after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Equivalent, the LC Exposure exceeds 103% of the total Letter of Credit Commitments, the Company shall, within five (5) Business Days
of receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent maintained in the United States pursuant to Section 2.04(j) in
an amount equal to such excess. 
 Section 1.08     Designation of
Company. Each of the Foreign Borrowers hereby appoints the Company to act as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all other documents and electronic platforms entered into in connection herewith and
agrees that (a) the Company 

  
 26 








 
may execute such documents and provide such authorizations on behalf of such Foreign Borrowers as the Company deems appropriate in its sole discretion and each Foreign Borrower shall be obligated
by all of the terms of any such document and/or authorization executed on its behalf, (b) any notice or communication delivered by the Administrative Agent or a Lender to the Company shall be deemed delivered to each Foreign Borrower and
(c) the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may accept, and be permitted to rely on, any document, authorization, instrument or agreement executed by the Company on behalf of each of the Foreign Borrowers. 

Section 1.09     Pro Forma Calculations. For the purpose of
calculating Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Net Revenue for any period, if during such period the Company or any Subsidiary shall have made a material acquisition or material disposition (with materiality calculated in accordance with Article
11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), each of Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Net Revenue shall be calculated giving pro forma effect (in accordance with Article 11 of
Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) thereto as if such material acquisition or disposition occurred on the first day of such period. 

Section 1.10     Eurocurrency Rate. The Administrative
Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” or with respect to any
comparable or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate therefor. 
 ARTICLE II 

THE CREDITS 

Section 2.01     Commitments. Subject to Section 2.07, and
subject to and upon the other terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies from time to time during the Availability Period in an
aggregate principal amount that will not result (after giving effect to any application of proceeds of such Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.08) in such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or the sum
of the Total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the total Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. 

Section 2.02     Loans and Borrowings. 

(a)        Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing
consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder;
provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 

(b)        Subject to Section 2.12, each Borrowing shall be
comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith; provided that none of the Lux Borrower, the UK Borrower or the Canadian Borrower may borrow ABR Loans. Each Lender at its
option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such
Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall not be inconsistent with the duty of such Lender under Section 2.17(a) to minimize amounts payable by the applicable Borrower under Section 2.13 or 2.15. 

  
 27 








 (c)        At the
commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 and not less than the Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000. At the
time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the
entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that
there shall not at any time be more than a total of fifteen (15) Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding. 

(d)        Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Borrowers shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

(e)        The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time, upon
prior written notice by the Company to the Administrative Agent, increase the Commitments by a maximum aggregate amount of up to SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ($750,000,000) with additional Commitments from any existing Lender or from any
other Person selected by the Company and subject to the approval requirements of Section 9.04; provided that: 

(i)        any such increase shall be in a minimum principal amount
of $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; 

(ii)        no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be
continuing at the time of any such increase; 
 (iii)        no
existing Lender shall be under any obligation to increase its Commitment and any such decision whether to increase its Commitment shall be in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion; 

(iv)        (A) any New Lender shall join this Agreement by executing
such joinder documents reasonably required by the Administrative Agent and/or (B) any existing Lender electing to increase its Commitment shall have executed a commitment agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and 

(v)        as a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrowers
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrowers dated as of the date of such increase signed by the President, a Vice President or a Financial Officer of the Company (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted
by the Borrowers approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (x) the representations and warranties of the Borrowers set forth in this Agreement are true and correct
in all material respects on and as of the date of such increase, except that (1) for purposes of this Section 2.02(e), the representations and warranties in Section 3.04(a) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements
furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 5.01, (2) to the extent such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date, such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as
of such earlier date and (3) to the extent any such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality or material adverse effect, such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects as of the applicable date, and
(y) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

  
 28 








 The Borrowers shall prepay any Loans owing by them and
outstanding on the date of any such increase (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.14) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Commitments arising from any nonratable increase in
the Commitments under this Section. 
 Section 2.03     Requests for
Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by delivering a written Borrowing Request substantially in the form of Exhibit C or another form approved by the
Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent) appropriately completed and signed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower (a) in
the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (b) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an
Alternative Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, four (4) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (c) in the case of an ABR
Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing; provided, however, that if the applicable Borrower wishes to request Eurocurrency Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than
one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable written Borrowing Request must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time (i) four
(4) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) five (5) Business Days (or six (6) Business Days in the case of a Special Notice
Currency) prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and
determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m. New York City time, (i) three (3) Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate
Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) four (4) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans
denominated in Alternative Currencies, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each such written
Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i)         the name of the applicable Borrower; 

(ii)        the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

(iii)       the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iv)       whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency
Borrowing; 
 (v)         the currency of the Loans to be borrowed;

 (vi)        in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial
Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and 

(vii)        the location and number of the applicable
Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.05. 

  
 29 








 If the applicable Borrower fails to specify a currency, then the Borrowing shall be made in
Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing; or in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an initial Interest Period of one
month. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing
Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

Section 2.04     Letters of Credit. 

(a)        General. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Company may request the issuance of Letters of Credit in Dollars or any Alternative Currency as the applicant thereof for the support of its or its Subsidiaries’ obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to
the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of
any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the applicable Issuing Lender shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any
Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person to fund any activity or business of or with any individual or entity or in any Designated Jurisdiction that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions,
or in any other manner that will result in a violation by any individual or entity (including any individual or entity participating in the transaction, whether as Lender, Issuing Lender, Joint Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent, or otherwise) of
Sanctions. 
 (b)        Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal,
Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Company shall hand deliver, courier, overnight or telecopy (or transmit by
electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender) to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension, but in any event no less than three Business Days unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender in its sole discretion) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be
amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section),
the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of
Credit issuance, the Company shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall submit a letter of credit application, in each case, as required by the Issuing
Lender and using such bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of
Credit the Company shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) (x) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing
Lender at such time plus (y) the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements made by such Issuing Lender that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company at such time shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment and
(ii) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the total Letter of Credit Commitments and (iii) no Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed its 

  
 30 








 
Commitment. The Company may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Lender with the consent of such Issuing Lender; provided that the
Company shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Lender if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above shall not be satisfied. 

(c)        Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall,
except as provided below in this paragraph, expire (or be subject to termination by notice from the applicable Issuing Lender to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the
date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Any Letter of Credit may
provide by its terms that it may be extended for additional successive one-year periods under customary “evergreen” provisions on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender;
provided that, except as provided below in this paragraph, no Letter of Credit may be extended automatically or otherwise beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuing Lender
in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit may extend the date of expiration of such Letter of Credit to a date after the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date on such terms and subject to such conditions as may be agreed to
between such Issuing Lender and the Company, and any agreement made by the Company to induce an Issuing Lender so to extend the date of expiration of any Letter of Credit (i) shall be set forth in a notice delivered by the Company to the
Administrative Agent promptly after the extension of the date of expiration of such Letter of Credit and (ii) shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be a covenant contained in Article V hereof. Each Issuing Lender, by extending
the date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date, will be deemed to have agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation under Section 2.04(d) in respect of any LC Disbursement resulting from a drawing made under such
Letter of Credit after the Maturity Date. 

(d)        Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of
Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Lender or the Lenders, each Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from each
Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and In furtherance of the foregoing, each
Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the
Company on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Company for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e)        Reimbursement. If any Issuing Lender shall make
any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement or (subject to the two immediately
succeeding sentences), with respect to any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement in the applicable Alternative Currency not later than 12:00 noon, New York City


  
 31 








 
time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Company shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is made in Dollars,
the Company may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Company’s
obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Company’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative
Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any applicable Lender to any stamp, duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, the Company shall pay the amount of any
such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender. If the Company fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to a Letter of Credit issued in an Alternative Currency, automatically
and with no further action required, the Company’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement (as converted to Dollars, if applicable), the payment then due from the Company in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly
following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Company, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender
(and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly
following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Company pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments
pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and the applicable Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an
Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

(f)        Obligations Absolute. The Company’s
obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented
under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft
or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a
legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Company’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Lenders, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any
error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to 

  
 32 








 
excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are
hereby waived by the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of
Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction),
such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on
their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, any Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion but acting in good faith, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(g)        Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing
Lender shall, within the period stipulated by terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit, following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. After examination, such
Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Company by telecopy or electronic mail of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any
failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 

(h)        Interim Interest. If any Issuing Lender shall
make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Company shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is
made to but excluding the date that the reimbursement is due and payable at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans and such interest shall be due and payable on the date when such reimbursement is payable; provided that, if the
Company fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.11(c) shall apply; provided, further that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made under a Letter of Credit in
an Alternative Currency, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in the applicable
Alternative Currency and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC
Disbursement plus the Applicable Rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in
Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest as provided above. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that
interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(i)         Replacement of Issuing Lenders. 

(i)        Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written
agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the 

  
 33 








 
successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the
Company shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the
rights and obligations of Issuing Lenders under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any
previous Issuing Lenders, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to
have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(ii)        Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
Issuing Lender, any Issuing Lender may resign as an Issuing Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Company and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Lender shall be replaced in accordance
with Section 2.04(i) above. 
 (j)        Cash
Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated,
Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative
Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Company is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC
Disbursements; provided, further that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Company described in Section 7.01(h) or (i). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Company
under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments
shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Company’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such
account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the
reimbursement obligations of the Company for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be
applied to satisfy other obligations hereunder. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be
returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 

  
 34 








 (k)        Letters of
Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, or states that a Subsidiary is the “account
party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Lender (whether arising by contract, at law, in
equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Company (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all
drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Company and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the
obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company’s business
derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 

(l)        Conversion. In the event that the Revolving Loans
become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that the Company is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC
Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency thereunder (other than amounts in respect of which the Company has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.04(j), if such cash collateral is deposited in the
applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders thereunder are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter
becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(e) in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency thereunder and (iii) of each Lender’s
participation in any Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency under which an LC Disbursement thereunder has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent of such amounts. On and after
such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise
applicable hereunder. 
 Section 2.05     Funding of Borrowings.

 (a)        Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of Same Day Funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent for the applicable currency most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the
Lenders. Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the
applicable Borrower by crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the funding date; provided that ABR Loans
made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender. 

(b)        Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share
available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the 

  
 35 








 
applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender
and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower,
but excluding the date of payment, to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Overnight Rate plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
foregoing or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 

Section 2.06     Interest Elections. 

(a)        Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in
the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type
or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section; provided that no Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency may be converted to an ABR
Borrowing. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the
Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b)        To make an election pursuant to this Section, the
applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by written Interest Election Request by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type
resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit D, or another form approved by the Administrative Agent
(including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent) appropriately completed and signed and signed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower. 

(c)        Each written Interest Election Request shall specify the
following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i)        the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request
applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv)
below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 

(ii)        the effective date of the election made pursuant to such
Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii)        whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 

  
 36 








 (iv)        if the
resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. No Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and
reborrowed in another currency. 
 (d)        Promptly following
receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e)        If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely
Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be
converted to an ABR Borrowing; provided that, in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans in their original currency, with
an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrowers, then, so long as
an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing (other than Eurocurrency Borrowings in an Alternative Currency)
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

Section 2.07     Termination of Commitments; Reductions of
Commitments. 
 (a)        Unless previously terminated, the
Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
 (b)        The
Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than
$5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the
total Commitments. 
 (c)        The Borrowers shall notify the
Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter time as agreed to by the Administrative Agent) prior to the effective date of
such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrowers
pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such
notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the
Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

  
 37 








 (d)        On not more
than two occasions during the term of this Agreement, the Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to any
anniversary of the date hereof, request that the Lenders extend the Maturity Date and the Commitments for an additional period of one year. Each Lender shall, by notice to the Company and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 20th day after the date of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Company’s extension request, advise the Company whether or not it agrees to the requested extension (each Lender agreeing to
a requested extension being called a “Consenting Lender” and each Lender declining to agree to a requested extension being called a “Declining Lender”). Any Lender that has not so advised the Company and the
Administrative Agent by such day shall be deemed to have declined to agree to such extension and shall be a Declining Lender. If Lenders constituting the Required Lenders shall have agreed to an extension request, then the Maturity Date shall, as to
the Consenting Lenders, be extended to the first anniversary of the Maturity Date theretofore in effect. The decision to agree or withhold agreement to any Maturity Date extension shall be at the sole discretion of each Lender. The Commitment of any
Declining Lender shall terminate on the Maturity Date in effect as to such Lender prior to giving effect to any such extension (such Maturity Date being called the “Existing Maturity Date”). The principal amount of any outstanding
Loans made by the Declining Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the accounts of such Declining Lenders hereunder, shall be due and payable on the Existing Maturity Date, and on
the Existing Maturity Date the Borrowers shall also make such other prepayments of its Loans as shall be required in order that (and it shall be a condition to the effectiveness of the extension of the Commitments of the Consenting Lenders that),
after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, the Declining Lenders pursuant to this sentence, the sum of the Total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph, the Company shall have the right, pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of Section 9.04, at any time prior to the Existing Maturity Date, to cause a Declining Lender to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to an Eligible Assignee reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that will agree to a request for the extension of the Maturity Date, and any such replacement Lender shall for all purposes
constitute a Consenting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless (i) on the anniversary of the date hereof that immediately follows the date on which the
Company delivers the applicable request for extension of the Maturity Date, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be
references to such extension and without giving effect to the first parenthetical in Section 4.02(a)) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the
Borrowers. 
 Section 2.08     Repayment of Loans; Evidence of
Debt. 
 (a)        Subject to Section 2.19, the
Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date. 

(b)        Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.


  
 38 








 (c)        The
Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or
to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d)        The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to
paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts
or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e)        Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced
by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit E. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

Section 2.09     Prepayment of Loans. 

(a)        The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from
time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section. 

(b)        The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent by telecopy or electronic mail of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of
prepayment, (ii) in the case of a prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, four (4) Business Days (or five (5) Business Days in the case of a Special
Notice Currency) before the date of prepayment and (iii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the
prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by
Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Subject to
Sections 2.18 and 2.19, each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11 and any break
funding payments required by Section 2.14. 

(c)        Subject to Section 2.19, if the Administrative Agent
notifies the Company at any time that the outstanding amount of all Loans at such time exceeds the Commitments then in effect due to foreign currency fluctuations, then, within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrowers
shall prepay Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the 

  
 39 








 
outstanding Loans as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Commitments then in effect. 

Section 2.10     Fees. 

(a)        The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the unused Commitment of such Lender, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.18, during the period from and including the date
of this Agreement to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year, on any date prior to the Maturity Date
on which the Commitments terminate and on the Maturity Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of
days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(b)        The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans on the average
daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding
any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC
Exposure, as well as each Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and
including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the fifteenth day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall
be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be
payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(c)        The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, each
for their own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in writing between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 

(d)        All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due,
in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances absent error in the calculation or payment thereof. 

  
 40 








 Section 2.11
    Interest. 

(a)        The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest
at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 

(b)        The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear
interest at the Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for the Borrowing of which such Loan is a part plus the Applicable Rate. 

(c)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or
interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 

(d)        Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears
on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or
prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in
the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e)        All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a
year of 360 days, except that interest (x) computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate or the CDOR Rate or (y) on Loans denominated in Sterling shall, in each case, be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap
year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate and the Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and
such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(f)        For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), (i) whenever
a rate of interest or fee rate hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) that contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest or fee rate shall be
expressed as a yearly rate by multiplying such rate of interest or fee rate by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year, (ii) the principle of deemed reinvestment of
interest shall not apply to any interest calculation hereunder and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated herein are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields. 

(g)        The Canadian Borrower acknowledges and confirms that: 

(i)        clause (f) above satisfies the requirements of
Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) to the extent it applies to the expression or statement of any interest payable under any Loan Document; and 

(ii)        it is able to calculate the yearly rate or percentage of
interest payable under any Loan Document based upon the methodology set out in clause (f) above. 

  
 41 








 (h)        The Canadian
Borrower agrees not to plead or assert, whether by way of defence or otherwise, in any proceeding relating to the Loan Documents, that the interest payable thereunder and the calculation thereof has not been adequately disclosed to the Canadian
Borrower, whether pursuant to Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada) or any other applicable Law or legal principle. 

(i)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, if the amount of interest payable under any Loan Document is reduced by virtue of the application of Section 4 of the Interest Act (Canada), then the Canadian Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, if an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01(h), (i) or (j) shall have occurred and be continuing, automatically and
without further action by the Administrative Agent), an amount equal to the amount of such reduction. 

(j)        If any provision of this Agreement would oblige any
Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable Law or would result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal
rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case
may be, as would not be so prohibited by Law or so result in a receipt by that Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

 (i)        first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest
required to be paid to the affected Lender under this Agreement; and 

(ii)        thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs,
expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to the affected Lender which would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada). 

Section 2.12     Alternate Rate of Interest. 

(a)        If in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate
Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent determines that (A) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such
currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Loan, or (B)(x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency
Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or in connection with an existing or proposed ABR Loan and (y) the circumstances described in Section 2.12(c)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to clause (i),
“Impacted Loans”), or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain
Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with
respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be 

  
 42 








 
suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any
pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, (x) in the case of
a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein and (y) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, will be
deemed to have converted such request into a request for short term borrowings of such Alternative Currency determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent. 

(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent
has made the determination described in clause (i) of Section 2.12(a), the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Company, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of
interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section, (2) the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Company that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that
any applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such
alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative
Agent and the Company written notice thereof; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. 

(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement
or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Company) that the Required Lenders have
determined, that: 
 (i)        adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or 

(ii)        the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen
Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the
interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), 
 then, after such determination by the
Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other
adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) that has been broadly accepted by the syndicated loan market in the United States in lieu of LIBOR (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any
proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.02, any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the


  
 43 








 
fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Company unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have
delivered to the Administrative Agent notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes
of this Agreement.
 If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist,
the obligation of the Lenders to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods). Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request
for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for
(x) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein and (y) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Borrowing of Loans bearing interest at a rate for
short term borrowings of such Alternative Currency determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Company, in each case in the amount specified therein. 

Section 2.13     Increased
Costs.        Subject to Section 2.17, 

(a)        if any Change in Law shall: 

(i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement contemplated by Section 2.13(f)) or any Issuing Lender; 

(ii)        subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than
(A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its
deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii)        impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London
interbank market any other condition, cost or expense, affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting
or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the
amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), other than any increase in costs resulting from (i) Excluded Taxes or
(ii) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to which Section 2.15 is applicable, then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b)        If any Lender or Issuing 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 Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing


  
 44 








 
Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments hereunder or the Loans made by or participations in Letters of Credit held by such Lender, or the
Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into
consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will
pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c)        A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth
the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and explaining in reasonable detail (which shall not require the
disclosure of any information that is confidential, sensitive or legally restricted) the method by which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(d)        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 the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or
Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered unless the Lender or Issuing Lender gives notice to the Company to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section within 180 days
after the date such Lender or Issuing Lender knows an event has occurred pursuant to which such Lender or Issuing Lender will seek such compensation. 

(e)        Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a
Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section if it is not at the time the general policy or practice of the Lender to demand compensation in similar circumstances in similar credit agreements, as determined by such Lender in
its sole discretion. 
 (f)        The Borrowers shall pay (or cause
the applicable Borrower to pay) to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as
“Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good
faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in
respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs
allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan,
provided the Company shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant
Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice. 

  
 45 








 Section 2.14     Break
Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any
Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of
whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request
by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the actual loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (other than lost profits). In the case of a Eurocurrency
Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event
not occurred, at the Eurocurrency Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or
continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at
the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to
this Section and explaining in reasonable detail the method by which such amount or amounts shall have been determined shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the
amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 Section 2.15
    Taxes. 

(a)        Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments
on Account of Taxes. 
 (i)        Any and all payments by or
on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of an
applicable Withholding Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then such Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and
documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below. 

(ii)        Without limiting Section 2.15(a)(i), if any Borrower
or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent shall withhold or make
such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount
withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be
increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the applicable Recipient receives
an 

  
 46 








 
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 

(iii)        If any Withholding Agent shall be required by any
applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Withholding Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the
information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Withholding Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or
the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
withholding or deduction been made. 
 (b)        Payment of
Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws, or at the option of the Administrative Agent
timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes other than with respect to any Luxembourg registration duties (droits d’enregistrement) payable in case of voluntary registration of the Loan Documents by any of the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders with the Administration de l’Enregistrement et des Domaines in Luxembourg or registration of the Loan Documents in Luxembourg when such registration is not required to maintain, preserve,
establish or enforce the rights of any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under the Loan Documents. 

(c)        Tax Indemnifications. 

(i)        The Company (jointly and severally with respect to the
obligations of all the Borrowers), and the Foreign Borrowers (jointly and severally solely with respect to the obligations of the Foreign Borrowers), shall indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to
be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and 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 Company by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender,
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any
reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 2.15(c)(ii) below; provided that the Company shall not be required to indemnify the Administrative Agent for any amount attributable to the
Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  
 47 








 (ii)        Each Lender
shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the
Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to
such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to
such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or a Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed
or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). 

(d)        Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable, after
any payment of Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 2.15, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e)        Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 

(i)        Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by
the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in Section 2.15(e)(ii)(A), 2.15(e)(ii)(B) and 2.15(e)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender
to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii)        Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the
event that the applicable Borrower is a U.S. Person, 

(A)        any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the
Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on 

  
 48 








 
which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B)        any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to
time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(1)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of
an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E
(or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other
applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2)        executed copies of IRS Form
W-8ECI; 
 (3)        in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 to the
effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code,
or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable); or 

(4)        to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial
owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 or Exhibit B-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C)        any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative 

  
 49 








 
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D)        if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document
would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable),
such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date. 

(iii)        Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it
previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.15 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing
of its legal inability to do so. 
 (f)        Treatment of
Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld
or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect
to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay to the Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Borrower under
this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the applicable Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus
any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this


  
 50 








 
subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable
net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund 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 subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems
confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person. 

(g)        United Kingdom Tax
Gross-Up. 

(i)        The UK Borrower shall make all payments to be made by it
under a Loan Document without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by Law. 

(ii)        The UK Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that
it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a
payment payable to that Lender. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the UK Borrower. 

(iii)        Subject to paragraph (iv) below, if a Tax Deduction
is required by Law to be made by the UK Borrower under a Loan Document, the amount of the payment due from such Borrower shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have
been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 
 (iv)        A
payment shall not be increased under paragraph (iii) above by reason of a Tax Deduction, if on the date on which the payment falls due: 

(A)        the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender
without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any Change in Law after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement; or

 (B)        the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the UK
Borrower is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under this Section 2.15(g)(vii) and (viii) below; or 

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

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

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

  
 51 








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

(1)        the Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the UK
Borrower; and 
 (2)        the payment could have been made to the
Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the UK Borrower, on the basis that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the UK Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted
payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA. 

(v)        If the UK Borrower is required to make a Tax Deduction,
such Borrower shall make such Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by Law. 

(vi)       Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment
required in connection with such Tax Deduction, the UK Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Lender entitled to the payment a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender that
the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to H.M. Revenue & Customs. 

(vii)      (A) Subject to (B) below, a Treaty Lender and the UK Borrower
shall cooperate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for such Borrower to obtain authorization to make such payment without (or, in the case of a Treaty Lender organized in or lending from Canada, at a reduced rate of) a Tax Deduction.

 (B)        (1)        Nothing in clause
(A) above shall require a Treaty Lender to register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme or apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any Loan if it has so registered. 

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

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

and having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to paragraph (vii)(A), above. 

(viii)     If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its
jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(vii) above and: 

  
 52 








 (A)       the UK Borrower has not
made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender; or 
 (B)       the UK
Borrower has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of such Lender but: 

(1)        such Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM
Revenue & Customs; or 
 (2)        HM Revenue &
Customs has not given such Borrower authority to make payments to such Lender without (or, in the case of a Lender organized in or lending from Canada, at a reduced rate of) Tax Deduction within 60 days of the date of such Borrower DTTP Filing; 

and in each case, such Borrower has notified that Lender in writing of either (1) or (2) above, then such Lender and
such Borrower shall cooperate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for such Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a Tax Deduction. 

(ix)        If a Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number
and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(vii) above, the UK Borrower shall not make a Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s)
or its participation in any Loan unless the Lender otherwise agrees. 

(x)        A Borrower shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP
Filing, deliver a copy of that Borrower DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender. 

(xi)        Each Original Lender shall indicate opposite its name on
Schedule I and each New Lender shall indicate in the Assignment and Assumption which it executes on becoming a party, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any Borrower, which of the following categories it falls in:

 (A)        not a Qualifying Lender 

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

(C)        a Treaty Lender. 

If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.15(g)(xi) then such New Lender shall be treated for the
purposes of this Agreement (including by each Borrower) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform
the UK Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Assumption shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.15(g)(xi). 

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

  
 53 








 (xiii)        The
Borrowers shall jointly and severally indemnify and, within five (5) Business Days of demand by any Recipient, pay to such Recipient an amount equal to any liability or cost which that party determines (acting reasonably and in good faith) it
has or will suffer (directly or indirectly) for or on account of UK Tax in respect of a Loan Document. 

(xiv)        Clause (xiii) above shall not apply with respect to
any UK Tax assessed on a party: 
 (A)        if that party is
incorporated in the UK or otherwise treated as resident in the UK for tax purposes; or 

(B)        if the party’s lending office is located in the UK in
respect of amounts received or receivable hereunder 
 if that UK Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net
income, profits or gains of that party. 
 (xv)      Furthermore, clause
(xiii) above shall not apply to the extent a liability or cost: 

(A)        is compensated for by an increased payment under
Section 2.15(g)(iii) above; or 
 (B)        would have been
compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.15(g)(iii) above but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.15(g)(iv) applied. 

(h)        Survival. Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all Loans other obligations under this Agreement. 

(i)        Defined Terms. For the purposes of this
Section 2.15, (x) the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA. 

Section 2.16     Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of
Set-offs. 
 (a)        Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to
which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the
Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in such currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require
that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any 

  
 54 








 
Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such
currency’s payment amount. The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or
otherwise) without set-off or counterclaim. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 12:00 noon, New York City time, in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the
Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. All such
payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent’s Office except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments
received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. 

(b)        If at any time insufficient funds are received by and
available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

(c)        If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a
greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase
(for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving
rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by
the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The
Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of setoff and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

  
 55 








 (d)        Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make
such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, the
amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so
distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate. 

(e)        If any Lender or the Issuing Lender shall fail to make any
payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(b) or 2.16(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Lender or Issuing Lender to satisfy such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

Section 2.17     Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

 (a)        If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.13, or requires any Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would
eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.
The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b)        If (i) any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.13, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iv) in connection
with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or consent, the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained but the consent of a Lender whose consent is required shall not have been obtained, then the Company may, at its sole expense and
effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than
its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (x) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld and (y) such Lender shall have received
payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding
principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (z) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or


  
 56 








 
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment
and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required
pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the assignee and (b) the 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 an 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 Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto. 

Section 2.18     Defaulting Lenders. 

(a)        Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i)        Waivers and Amendment. The Defaulting Lender’s
right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02. 

(ii)        Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of
principal, interest, fees or other amount received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7.02 or otherwise, and including any
amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to
the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Lender hereunder; third, to cash
collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ LC Exposure with regard to such Defaulting Lenders in accordance with this Section; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the
funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Company, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future LC Exposure with
respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or Issuing Lenders as a result of any judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or Issuing Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided 

  
 57 








 
that, if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and
(y) such Loans were made or related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to the pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to,
all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and
unfunded participations in the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lenders’ LC Exposure are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to clause (b) below. Any payments,
prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by
such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii)        Certain Fees. The Defaulting Lender shall not be
entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.10(a) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been
paid to such Defaulting Lender). 
 (b)         LC Exposure.
If any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(i)        all or any part of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting
Lender shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any Non-Defaulting Lender, cause such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed its Commitment; 

(ii)        if the reallocation described in clause (i) above
cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii)        if the Borrowers cash collateralizes any portion of such
Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure
during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 

(iv)        if the LC Exposure of the
Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b)(i) shall be adjusted in accordance with
such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and 

(v)        if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC
Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder,


  
 58 








 
all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.10(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders until and to the extent that such
LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized. 

(c)        Issuances and Amendments to Letters of Credit. So
long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be
100% covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with Section 2.18(b), and LC Exposure related to any newly issued or
increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(b)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 

(d)        Bankruptcy Events and
Bail-In Actions, Etc. If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to any Person as to which a Lender is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary,
shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such
Lender commits to extend credit, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Company or such Lender, satisfactory
to such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder. 

(e)        Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, each Issuing
Lender and the Administrative Agent, agree in writing in their sole discretion that 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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may
determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages and the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of
such Lender’s Commitment, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that
Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any
claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 Section 2.19
    Bifurcation. For the avoidance of doubt, each of the Borrowers and each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, the obligations of the Foreign Borrowers under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be several and separate and distinct from the obligations of the Company and the other Foreign Borrowers, and shall be expressly
limited to the obligations of such Foreign Borrower. In furtherance of the foregoing, each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the liability of any Foreign Borrower for the payment and performance of its covenants, representations and
warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be several from but not joint with the obligations of the Company and the other Foreign Borrowers (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be
jointly and severally liable for the obligations of the Foreign Borrowers). For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations of the Foreign Borrowers under the Loan Documents are 

  
 59 








 
several, and each Foreign Borrower is exclusively liable for its own obligations under the Loan Documents. 

Section 2.20     Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law
has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain, or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market,
then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Company (through the Administrative Agent), (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, and
(b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the ABR, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender
shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the ABR, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the
circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurocurrency
Rate Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the ABR),
either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and
(ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the ABR applicable to such Lender
without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate.
Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.14.

 Section 3.15     Foreign Borrower Representations. Each

(a)        Such Foreign Borrower is subject to civil and commercial
Laws with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party (collectively as to such Foreign Borrower, the “Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents”), and the execution, delivery and
performance by such Foreign Borrower of the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts. Neither such Foreign Borrower nor any of its property has any immunity
from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is
organized and existing in respect of its obligations under the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents. 

(b)        The Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents are in proper
legal form under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is organized and existing for the enforcement thereof against such Foreign Borrower under the Laws of such jurisdiction, and to ensure the legality, validity,
enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents. Subject to the Legal Reservations, it is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the
Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents that the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents be filed, registered or recorded with, or executed or notarized before, any court or other authority in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is organized
and existing or that any registration charge or stamp or 

  
 63 








 
similar tax be paid on or in respect of the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents or any other document, except for (i) any such filing, registration, recording, execution or notarization as
has been made or is not required to be made until the Applicable Foreign Borrower Document or any other document is sought to be enforced and (ii) any charge or tax as has been timely paid. In respect of the Lux Borrower, an Applicable Foreign
Borrower Document will have to be filed, registered, recorded or notarized only in case of an action before a court or an official Luxembourg authority (autorité constituée) in Luxembourg or if the relevant document(s) is
referred to in the summons or tabled, in which case it may have to be registered together with a French or German translation. 

(c)        There is no tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or
other governmental charge, or any deduction or withholding, imposed by any Governmental Authority in or of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is organized and existing either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the
Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents or (ii) on any payment to be made by such Foreign Borrower pursuant to the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents, except as has been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and in particular where the
registration of the Applicable Foreign Borrower Documents (and/or documents in connection therewith) with the Administration de l’Enregistrement et des Domaines in Luxembourg may be required should the Applicable Foreign Borrower
Documents (and any documents in connection therewith) be attached as an annex to a deed (annexés à un acte) that itself is subject to mandatory registration, or deposited in the minutes of a notary (déposés au
rang des minutes d’un notaire), in which case either a nominal registration duty of EUR 12 or an ad valorem duty will be payable depending on the nature of the documents so registered, in which case such registrations, notarisations or
filings will be made and paid promptly after the date of the relevant Applicable Foreign Borrower Document if they are required to maintain, preserve, establish or enforce the rights of the Lenders or of the Administrative Agent. 

(d)        The execution, delivery and performance of the Applicable
Foreign Borrower Documents executed by such Foreign Borrower are, under applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is organized and existing, not subject to any notification or authorization
except (i) such as have been made or obtained or (ii) such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date (provided that any notification or authorization described in clause (ii) shall be made or obtained as soon as is
reasonably practicable). 
 Section 3.16     Use of Proceeds.
None of the Borrowers will, directly or, to its knowledge, indirectly, use any part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit in violation of Anti-Corruption Laws, applicable Sanctions or the USA PATRIOT Act.

ARTICLE VIII 
 THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Section 8.01     The Administrative
Agent. Each of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank, as Administrative Agent, to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative
Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except with respect to the
consent rights of the Company relating to a successor agent as set forth below, 

  
 75 








 
the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Issuing Lenders and the Borrowers shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of
any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

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

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a
Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that
the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Sections 7.02 and 9.02), provided
that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the
avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and
(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is
communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 The
Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent
shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 7.02 and 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and
nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company, another Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. 

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

  
 76 








 
forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice,
request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise
authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In
determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or any Issuing Lender, the
Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such
Loan or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

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

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Company. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint,
with the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, and with an office in Canada or an Affiliate of any such bank; provided
that (x) in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender or Disqualified Institution and (y) if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and
(b) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to
each Lender and each Issuing Lender directly until such time as the Required Lenders appoint, with the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges 

  
 77 








 
and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 2.15(e) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the
retiring Administrative Agent as of the resignation effective date), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Company to a
successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while (i) it was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including
in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent. 
 Any
resignation by Citibank as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Lender. If Citibank resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an
Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and the LC Exposure with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund
risk participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements pursuant to Section 2.04(e). Upon the appointment by the Company of a successor Issuing Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting
Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and
obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements
satisfactory to Citibank to effectively assume the obligations of Citibank with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 Each
Lender and each Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any other their
Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have
any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions of this Agreement relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent
shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any
assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution. 
 It is
agreed that the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall, in their capacities as such, have no duties or responsibilities under this Agreement. 

Section 8.02     Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender
(x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit
of, the

91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements

Commitments and this Agreement, or

representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(a)        No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any
Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights
or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by a Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section,
and then such waiver or consent shall be 

  
 82 








 
effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be
construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

(b)        Subject to Section 2.12(c) and Section 9.02(c)
below, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative
Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC
Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than with respect to default interest), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment
of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the
written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.07(c) or 2.16(b) or (c), or any other provision of this Agreement, in a manner that would alter the ratable reduction of Commitments or the pro rata sharing of payments
required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) release the Company from the Company Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) change the payment waterfall provisions of Section 2.18(b) or 7.02
without the written consent of each Lender, (vii) amend Section 1.05 or the definition of “Alternative Currency” without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) release any Borrower from its obligations hereunder without
the written consent of each Lender or (ix) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or
modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided, however, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment,
waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that
(x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, or the maturity of any of its Loans may not be extended, the rate of interest or fees payable on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any
of its Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting
Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender, and provided, further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent or the Issuing Lenders hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders, as the case may be; provided, further that no such agreement shall amend or modify the provisions of
Section 2.04 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between any Borrower and any Issuing Lender regarding such Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment or the respective rights and obligations between any
Borrower and any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender, respectively. 

(c)        Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure or correct administrative errors or omissions, any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or to effect administrative
changes, and such amendment shall become effective 

  
 83 








 
without any further consent of any other party to such Loan Document so long as (i) such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or any
Issuing Lender in any material respect and (ii) the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of
the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment. 

Section 9.03     Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a)        The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and Syndication Agent and their Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of a single
primary counsel (which shall be Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP) for the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, collectively, and of any special and/or local counsel to the Lenders determined by the Joint Lead Arrangers or the
Administrative Agent to be reasonably necessary in connection with this Agreement and retained by the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the party affected by such
conflict informs the Company and retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected party), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and
any other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all
reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, related to the enforcement or protection of its rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in connection with any actual or reasonably
anticipated Default, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

(b)        Subject to Section 2.19, the Company shall indemnify
the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, each Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such
Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
(including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of a single primary counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and if reasonably necessary, of a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all Indemnitees taken as
a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the party affected by such conflict informs the Company and retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected party)) incurred by or asserted against
any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto
of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an
Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of
Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or 

  
 84 








 
any of its Subsidiaries giving rise to liability under any Environmental Law, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual
or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or proceeding is brought by any Borrower or their respective equity
holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other third Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out
of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are found in a
final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (x) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) a breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations under the Loan
Documents. This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(c)        Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to
be paid by any Borrower under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03 to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the
extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if
indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against
such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or
any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred
by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in its capacity as such.; provided, further that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this
Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

(d)        To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no
Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems (including the Internet), and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party, 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 or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or
the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this clause (d)(ii) shall relieve any Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against
such Indemnitee by a third party. 

  
 85 








 (e)        All amounts
due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor accompanied by the appropriate invoice or other detail supporting such amounts; provided, however, that any Agent Indemnitee shall promptly refund an
indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 9.03. 

Section 9.04     Successors and Assigns. 

(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 any Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise
transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, the Indemnitees, their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b)        (i)        Subject
to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments, participations in
Letter of Credit and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 

(A)        the Company; provided that no consent of the
Company shall be required for an assignment (i) to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; 

(B)        the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent
of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and 

(C)        each Issuing Lender. 

(ii)        Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions: 
 (A)        except in the case of an assignment to a
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the amount of the Commitment 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) shall not be less than $10,000,000 or, if smaller, the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, unless the Company and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, provided that (x) in
the event of concurrent assignments to two or more assignees that are Affiliates of one another, or to two or more Approved Funds 

  
 86 








 
managed by the same investment advisor or by affiliated investment advisors, all such concurrent assignments shall be aggregated in determining compliance with this subsection and (y) no
such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(B)        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; 

(C)        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; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such fee in the case of any assignment;

 (D)        no assignment shall be made (i) to a Borrower or
any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (ii) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or any Person as to which such Defaulting Lender is, directly or indirectly, a subsidiary, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender
hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii), (iii) to a natural person or (iv) to a Disqualified Institution (provided that, with respect to any assignee or, in the case of clause
(c) below, any participant that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable assignment or participation, as the case may be, such assignee or participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or
participant); and 
 (E)        the assignee, if it shall not be a
Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire (a copy of which shall promptly be provided to the Company). 

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

 “Approved Fund” means, any Person (other than a natural Person) that is (or will be)
engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans, bonds and similar extensions of credit, in the ordinary course of its activities that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a
Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 

(iii)        Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the 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 

  
 87 








 
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations
under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations to the extent made in accordance with paragraph
(c) of this Section or if not made in the compliance therewith, such assignment or transfer shall be null and void. 

(iv)        The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any
Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v)        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) 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;
provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(d) or (e), 2.05(b), 2.16(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no
obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for
purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(vi)        In connection with any assignment of rights and
obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the
Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with
the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to
(x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of
all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting 

  
 88 








 
Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender
for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

(c)        (i)        Any
Lender may, without notice to or the consent of the Company, any other Borrower, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignee (other than a natural person, a Disqualified Institution, a
Defaulting Lender or a Borrower or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment 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 and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
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 described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that
affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the
requirements under Section 2.15(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.15(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) 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 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to
Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii)        A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Company is notified of
the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of (and stated interest on) each Participant’s interest in the
Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be
conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the


  
 89 








 
contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(d)        Any Lender, without notice to or the consent of any
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, 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 other applicable central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; 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. 

(e)        By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption,
the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the
interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Commitments and the outstanding balances of its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof that have not become effective, are as set forth in
such Assignment and Assumption; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or
in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of any of the foregoing,
or the financial condition of the Borrowers or the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto;
(iii) each of the assignee and the assignor represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies
of any amendments or consents entered into prior to the date of such Assignment and Assumption and copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the
Co-Documentation Agents and the Syndication Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own
credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as an agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as are delegated to it by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations that
by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; (viii) such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; and (ix) such assignee has, or concurrently with the assignment, has delivered the tax forms required by
Section 2.15(e). 
 (f)        Disqualified
Institutions. (i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and
assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person, as the case may be (unless the Company has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be
considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a 

  
 90 








 
Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such
assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the Company or other applicable Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee
no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment in violation of this clause (f)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (f) shall apply. 

(ii)        Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any assignment or
participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the applicable Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the
applicable Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate the Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the
applicable Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Commitment and/or (B) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this
Section), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such
interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder. 

(iii)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate
in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and
(B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any
action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes
of voting on any plan of reorganization, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such plan of reorganization notwithstanding
the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief
Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor
Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2). 

Section 9.05     Survival. All covenants, agreements,
representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein and in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall be considered to
have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and

delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding
that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long
as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of
the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

Section 9.06     Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns. 
 Section 9.07     Severability. Any provision of this
Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 9.07, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent
then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 

Section 9.08     Right of Setoff. Subject to
Section 2.19, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest
extent permitted by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate to or
for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any of and all the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Affiliate, irrespective of whether or
not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Lender different from
the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over
immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held
in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan 

  
 92 








 
Documents owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Any Lender, Issuing Lender or Affiliate of such Lender or Issuing Lender exercising any of its
rights pursuant to this Section shall provide notice of the same to the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after exercising the same; provided, however, the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
setoff. 
 Section 9.09     Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to
Service of Process. 
 (a)        THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (EXCEPT, AS TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH THEREIN) AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by Law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions
by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(c)        Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in
any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court.

 93 








 
ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN
THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS
SECTION. 
 Section 9.11     Headings. Article and Section
headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

Section 9.12     Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents,
including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential) on a
“need to know” basis solely in connection with the Transactions, (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory (including any self-regulatory) authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, provided, however, that, to the extent legally permitted, the Company is promptly notified in order that it may seek a protective order or take other appropriate action, (d) to any other party to
this Agreement, (e) to the extent reasonably required or reasonably deemed advisable in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (f) subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (such agreement containing provisions substantially the same
as those of this Section), to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (in each case, other than a Disqualified Institution) or (ii) any
actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to a Borrower and their respective obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company or (h) on a
confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Company or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and

Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Borrower and other than information pertaining to
this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrowers after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified as confidential at the time of delivery or delivered under circumstances that would cause a reasonable person to believe such information to be confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. 

  
 94 








 Section 9.13     Material Non-Public Information. 

(a)        EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN
SECTION 9.12 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND
CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING UNITED STATES FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND CANADIAN PROVINCIAL SECURITIES LAWS. 

(b)        ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND
AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWERS AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE COMPANY AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO
MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW. 

Section 9.14     Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Law (collectively the
“Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Law, the rate of
interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan
but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such
cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at (x) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (y) in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate for short term borrowings of
such Alternative Currency determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent, in each case to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

Section 9.15     USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the
Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which
information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and the Terrorist Financing
Act (Canada). Each Borrower shall, promptly following a reasonable and customary request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably requests
in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act. If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of any Borrower
for the purposes of the foregoing legislation, then the Administrative Agent (a) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Lender
and the 

  
 95 








 
Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable legislation and (b) shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or
warranty as to its accuracy or completeness. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lenders agrees that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of any
Borrower on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Borrower in doing so. 

Section 9.16     Waiver of Notice Period. Each Lender that is a
party to the Existing Credit Agreement hereby waives the three (3) Business Days’ notice requirement for termination of the commitments as set forth in Section 2.08 of the Existing Credit Agreement and each such Lender agrees that
upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed terminated. 

Section 9.17     No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In
connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (a)(i) the arranging and
other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, are
arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent and
the Joint Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, (ii) each Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) each Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands
and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) the Administrative Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent and the
Joint Lead Arrangers are and have been acting solely as principals and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, have not been, are not and will not be acting as advisors, agents or fiduciaries, for the Borrowers and
(ii) none of the Administrative Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger has any obligation to the Borrowers with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby
except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and
their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers, and none of the Administrative Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, the
Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Borrower. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Borrowers hereby waives and releases, any claims that it may have against the
Administrative Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent, the Syndication Agent or any Joint Lead Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any
transaction contemplated hereby. 
 Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’
understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the
ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial
instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, any Borrower and other companies with which any Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party
or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. 

In addition, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit
Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or 

  
 96 








 
other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrowers may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and
otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from any Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrowers in connection with the performance by such Credit
Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. Each Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the
Loan Documents, or to furnish to any Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies. 

Section 9.18     Entire Agreement. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES. 

Section 9.19     Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other
Documents. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words
“execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without
limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications, Borrowing Requests, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic
platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping
system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar
state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent are under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form
or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it. 

Section 9.20     Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of
obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the
Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of
this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment
Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the
sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as
the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be,
agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law). 

  
 97 








 Section 9.21
    Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement,
arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and
Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

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

Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

(i)        a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such
liability; 
 (ii)        a conversion of all, or a portion of,
such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of
ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

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

the term of this Agreement, plus interest, fees, reimbursement obligations, indemnity obligations and other amounts owed by the Foreign Borrowers to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder (collectively, the
“Guaranteed Obligations”) in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Company
hereby further agrees that if any of the Guaranteed Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Company will promptly pay
the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents or the other documents
relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, the obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance
under applicable Debtor Relief Laws. 

  
 98 








 Section 10.02     Obligations
Unconditional. 
 (a)        The obligations of the Company
under Section 10.01 are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, or
any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 10.02 that the obligations of the Company hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any
and all circumstances. The Company agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Foreign Borrowers for amounts paid under this Article X until such time as the

following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Company hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: 

(b)        at any time or from time to time, without notice to the
Company, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 

(c)        any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any
of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall be done or omitted; 

(d)        the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall be waived or any other
guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or 

(e)        any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be determined to be
void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of the Company) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of the Company). 

With respect to its obligations hereunder, the Company hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all
notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other holder of the Guaranteed Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or any other document relating
to the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

Section 10.03     Reinstatement. The obligations of the Company
under this Article X shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and the Company agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each other holder of the Guaranteed Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and
expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such holder of the Guaranteed Obligations in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses


  
 99 








 
incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law, except those arising from the bad
faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or a holder of the Guaranteed Obligations. 

Section 10.04     Certain Additional Waivers. The Company agrees
that it shall have no right of recourse to security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 10.02 and through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to
Section 10.06. The Company hereby irrevocably waives the defense of any law or regulation of any jurisdiction, or any other event affecting any term of a Guaranteed Obligation. 

Section 10.05     Remedies. The Company agrees that, to the
fullest extent permitted by Law, as between the Company, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other holders of the Guaranteed Obligations, on the other hand, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable
as specified in Section 10.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances specified in Section 10.02) for purposes of
Section 10.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Guaranteed Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and
that, in the event of such declaration (or the Guaranteed Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable
by the Company for purposes of Section 10.01. 
 Section 10.06
    Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. The guaranty in this Article X is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, is a continuing guaranty, and shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations
whenever arising.
