 SECTION II 
 THE COMMITMENTS AND EXTENSIONS OF CREDIT 
  
 2.1 Loans; Maximum Amounts. 
  
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make, Convert and Continue Loans until the Maturity Date in such amounts as Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that
the Outstanding Obligations of all Lenders shall not exceed at any time the combined Commitments, as the same may be from time to time adjusted in accordance with this Agreement. The amount of the combined Commitments initially totals
USD$50,000,000. Following the date of this Agreement, the amount of the combined Commitments may be increased by up to USD$75,000,000 to a total not to exceed USD$125,000,000 in the event Administrative Agent secures additional commitments from the
Existing Lenders or from New Lenders as otherwise provided herein. This is a revolving credit and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may borrow, Convert, Continue, prepay and reborrow Loans as set forth herein without premium or
penalty. 
  
 (b) Loans made by each Lender shall
be evidenced by one or more Notes. The date, amount and maturity of each Lender’s Loans and payments and other particulars with respect thereto may be endorsed on schedule(s) attached to its Note by each Lender and/or recorded on one or more
loan accounts or records maintained by such Lender in the ordinary 
  

 - 20 - 








 course of business. Such Notes, loan accounts and records shall be conclusive absent manifest error of
the amount of such Loans and payments thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrower to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. 
  
 2.2 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

  
 (a) Borrower may irrevocably request a
Borrowing, Conversion or Continuation of Loans in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Request for Extension of Credit therefor by Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor. All Borrowings, Conversions
and Continuations of Loans shall constitute Base Rate Loans unless properly and timely otherwise designated as set forth in the prior sentence. 
  
 (b) Following receipt of a Request for Extension of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its Pro Rata Share
thereof by Requisite Notice. In the case of a Borrowing of Loans, each Lender shall make the funds for its Loan available to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time therefor on the Business Day
specified in such Request for Extension of Credit. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (and, in the case of an initial Extension of Credit hereunder, Section 4.1), all funds so received shall be made available to
Borrower in Dollars. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan upon determination of same. 
  
 (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, an Offshore Rate Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the
last day of the Interest Period for such Offshore Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, Converted into or Continued as Offshore Rate Loans without the consent of Requisite Lenders, and
Requisite Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Offshore Rate Loans be Converted immediately into Base Rate Loans. 
  
 (d) If a Loan is to be made on the same date that another Loan is due and payable, Borrower or Lenders, as the case may be, shall, unless
Administrative Agent otherwise requests, make available to Administrative Agent the net amount of funds giving effect to both such Loans and the effect for purposes of this Agreement shall be the same as if separate transfers of funds had been made
with respect to each such Loan. 
  
 (e) The
failure of any Lender to make any Loan on any date shall not relieve any other Lender of any obligation to make a Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan. 
  
 2.3 Letters of Credit. 
  
 (a) The Letter of Credit Sublimit. Subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, Issuing Lender shall take such Letter of Credit Actions as 
  

 - 21 - 








 Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that (i) the Outstanding Obligations of each
Lender shall not at any time exceed such Lender’s Commitment; (ii) the Outstanding Obligations of all Lenders shall not at any time exceed the combined Commitments; and (iii) Letter of Credit Usage shall not at any time exceed the Letter of
Credit Sublimit. Subject to subsection (g) below and unless consented to by Issuing Lender and Requisite Lenders, no Letter of Credit may expire more than 12 months after the date of its issuance or last renewal. 
  
 (b) Letter of Credit Actions. Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, Issuing Lender shall take such Letter of Credit Actions as Borrower may from time to time request; provided, however, that the Outstanding Obligations of each
Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment and the Outstanding Obligations of all Lenders shall not exceed the combined Commitments at any time. Subject to subsection (g) below and unless consented to by Issuing Lender and Requisite
Lenders, no Letter of Credit may expire more than twelve (12) months after the date of its issuance or last renewal; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall expire after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless Borrower shall post cash
collateral with respect to such Letter of Credit in such manner as is reasonably satisfactory to Lender and the amount of the Letter of Credit does not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. 
  
 (c) Requesting Letter of Credit Actions. Borrower may
irrevocably request a Letter of Credit Action in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Letter of Credit Application therefor to Issuing Lender, with a copy to Administrative Agent (who shall notify Lenders) by Requisite Notice not later than the
Requisite Time therefor. Each Letter of Credit Action shall be in a form acceptable to Issuing Lender in its sole discretion. Unless Administrative Agent notifies Issuing Lender that such Letter of Credit Action is not permitted hereunder, or
Issuing Lender notifies Administrative Agent that it has determined that such Letter of Credit Action is contrary to any Laws or policies of Issuing Lender, Issuing Lender shall, upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section
4.2 with respect to any Letter of Credit Action constituting an Extension of Credit, effect such Letter of Credit Action. This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any Letter of Credit Application. Upon the issuance of a Letter
of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Issuing Lender a risk participation therein in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
  
 (d) Reimbursement of Payments Under Letters of
Credit. Borrower shall reimburse Issuing Lender through Administrative Agent for any payment that Issuing Lender makes under a Letter of Credit on or before the date of such payment; provided, however, that if the conditions precedent set forth
in Section 4.2 can be satisfied, Borrower may request a Borrowing of Loans to reimburse Issuing Lender for such payment pursuant to Section 2.3, or, failing to make such request, Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans on such payment date pursuant to subsection (e) below. 
  
 (e) Funding by Lender When Issuing Lender Not Reimbursed. Upon any drawing under a Letter of Credit, Issuing Lender 
  

 - 22 - 








 shall notify Administrative Agent and Borrower. If Borrower fails to timely make the payment required
pursuant to subsection (d) above, Issuing Lender shall notify Administrative Agent of such fact and the amount of such unreimbursed payment. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its Pro Rata Share of such amount by Requisite
Notice. Each Lender shall make funds in an amount equal its Pro Rata Share of such amount available to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time therefor on the Business Day specified by
Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to Issuing Lender. The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse Issuing Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default
or Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by Issuing Lender under any Letter of
Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 
  
 (f) Nature of Lenders’ Funding. If the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 can be satisfied (except for the giving of a Request for Extension of Credit) on any date Borrower is obligated to, but fails to, reimburse
Issuing Lender for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the funding by Lenders pursuant to the previous subsection shall be deemed to be a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (without regard to the Minimum Amount therefor) deemed requested by Borrower. If
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 cannot be satisfied on the date Borrower is obligated to, but fails to, reimburse Issuing Lender for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the funding by Lenders pursuant to the previous subsection
shall be deemed to be a funding by each Lender of its risk participation in such Letter of Credit, and each Lender making such funding shall thereupon acquire a pro rata participation, to the extent of its reimbursement, an interest in the claim of
Issuing Lender against Borrower in respect of such payment and shall share in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any payment made by Borrower with respect to such claim. Any amounts made available by a Lender under its risk
participation shall be payable by Borrower upon demand of Administrative Agent, and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. 
  
 (g) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to pay to Issuing Lender the amount of any payment made by Issuing Lender
under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, and irrevocable. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrower’s obligation shall not be affected by any of the following circumstances: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this
Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
  
 (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating hereto or thereto; 
  
 (iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense, or other rights which Borrower may have at any time against Issuing
Lender, Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary may be acting) or any other Person, whether in connection with such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or
any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transactions; 
  

 - 23 - 








 (iv) any demand, statement, or any other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be
forged, fraudulent, invalid, or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit; 
  
 (v) any payment made by Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit to any
Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any
arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws; 
  
 (vi) the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any property purported to be represented by documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit or for any difference
between any such property and the character, quality, quantity, condition, or value of such property as described in such documents; 
  
 (vii) the time, place, manner, order or contents of shipments or deliveries of property as described in documents presented in connection with such
Letter of Credit or the existence, nature and extent of any insurance relative thereto; 
  
 (viii) the solvency or financial responsibility of any party issuing any documents in connection with such Letter of Credit; 
  
 (ix) any failure or delay in notice of shipments or arrival of any property; 
  
 (x) any error in the transmission of any message relating to such Letter of Credit not caused by Issuing Lender, or any
delay or interruption in any such message; 
  
 (xi) any error,
neglect or default of any correspondent of Issuing Lender in connection with such Letter of Credit; 
  
 (xii) any consequence arising from acts of God, wars, insurrections, civil unrest, disturbances, labor disputes, emergency conditions or other causes
beyond the control of Issuing Lender; 
  
 (xiii) so long as
Issuing Lender in good faith determines that the document appears to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to Issuing Lender
in connection with such Letter of Credit; and 
  
 (xiv) any other
circumstances whatsoever where Issuing Lender has acted in good faith. 
  
 In addition, Borrower will promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and amendments thereto delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, Borrower will
immediately notify Issuing Lender in writing. Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against Issuing Lender and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
  
 (h) Role of Issuing Lender. Each Lender and Borrower
agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, Issuing Lender shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or 
  

 - 24 - 








 to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the
Person executing or delivering any such document. No Administrative Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted in
connection herewith at the request or with the approval of Lenders or Requisite Lenders, as applicable; any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or the due execution, effectiveness, validity or
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit. Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this
assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Administrative Agent-Related Person, nor any of the
respective correspondents, participants or assignees of Issuing Lender, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in subsection (g) above. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Issuing Lender may accept
documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any
instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
  
 (i) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise
expressly agreed by Issuing Lender and Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, performance under Letters of Credit by Issuing Lender, its correspondents, and beneficiaries will be governed by, with respect to
standby Letters of Credit, the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” (ISP98) or such later revision as may be published by the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”). 
  
 (j) Letter of Credit Fee. On each Applicable Payment
Date, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent in arrears, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a Letter of Credit fee equal to the Applicable Margin for Offshore Rate Loans on a per annum basis times the actual
daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit for the period since the later of the Closing Date and the previous Applicable Payment Date. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the actual daily
amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect. 
  
 (k) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Lender. On each Applicable Payment Date, Borrower shall
pay to Administrative Agent for the sole account of Issuing Lender a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.150% per annum on the daily average face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, payable in arrears. In addition, Borrower shall pay
directly to Issuing Lender, upon demand, for its sole account its customary documentary and processing charges in accordance with its standard schedule, as from time to time in effect, for any Letter of Credit Action or other occurrence relating to
a Letter of Credit for which such charges are customarily made. Such fees and charges are nonrefundable.

 2.4 Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor, Borrower may
at any time and from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in part in the Minimum Amount therefor or in full without premium or penalty. Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such
prepayment. Any prepayment of an Offshore Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with the amounts set forth in Section 3.5. 
  

(b) If for any reason the Outstanding Obligations exceed the combined Commitments as in effect or as reduced because of any limitation
set forth in this Agreement or otherwise, Borrower shall immediately prepay Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. 
  
 2.5 Reduction or Termination of Commitments. Upon Requisite Notice to Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor,
Borrower may at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty, permanently and irrevocably reduce the Commitments in a Minimum Amount therefor to an amount not less than the Outstanding Obligations at such time or terminate the
Commitments. Any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued and unpaid commitment fees with respect to the portion of the Commitments being reduced or terminated. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Lenders
of any such request for reduction or termination of the Commitments. Each Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced by an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such reduction. 
  
 2.6 Principal and Interest. 
  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided hereunder, if not sooner
paid, Borrower agrees to pay the outstanding principal amount of each Loan on the Maturity Date. 
  
 (b) Subject to subsection (c) below, and unless otherwise specified herein, Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of
each Loan (before and after default, before and after maturity, before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws) from the date borrowed until paid in full (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) on each Applicable Payment Date at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate determined in accordance with the definition of such type of Loan, plus the Applicable Margin specified in the definition in this Agreement of Applicable
Margin with respect to such type of Loan. 
  
 (c)
Notwithstanding subsection (b) of this Section, while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all
outstanding Obligations, at the Default Rate. 
  

 - 26 - 








 2.7 Fees. 
  
 (a) Facility Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent (for the account of each Lender
according to its Pro Rata Share) the respective facility fee set forth in the definition in this Agreement of Applicable Margin, calculated on the full amount of the combined Commitments. The facility fee shall accrue from the Closing Date until the
Maturity Date and shall be calculated and payable quarterly in arrears on each Applicable Payment Date. The Facility Fee shall accrue at all times, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Section 4 are not met. 
  
 (b) Agency and Arrangement Fees. Borrower shall pay
to Administrative Agent and Arranger an administrative agency fee and a structuring and arrangement fee, respectively, in such amounts and on the Closing Date as set forth in a separate letter agreement dated March 29, 2005 among Borrower,
Administrative Agent and Arranger (the “Fee Letter”). Such fees are for the services to be performed by Administrative Agent in acting as Administrative Agent and for the services of Arranger in structuring and arranging the credit
facilities under this Agreement, respectively, and are fully earned on the date paid. Such fees are solely for Administrative Agent’s and Arranger’s own account and are nonrefundable. 
  
 (c) Lenders’ Upfront Fee. On the Closing Date,
Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender an up front fee in an amount agreed between Administrative Agent and Borrower, calculated based on each Lender’s Commitment and allocated by Administrative Agent. Such
upfront fees are consideration for the Commitments by each Lender under this Agreement and is fully earned on the date paid. The up front fee paid to each Lender is solely for its own account and is nonrefundable. 
  
 2.8 Computation of Interest and Fees. Computation of interest
on Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by KeyBank’s “prime rate” shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of
interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed, which results in a higher yield to Lenders than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for
the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one
day. 
  
 2.9 Making Payments. 
  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by
Borrower or any Lender hereunder shall be made to Administrative Agent at Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time for such type of payment. All payments received after such Requisite Time shall be deemed received on the
next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made in immediately available funds in lawful money of the United States of America. All payments by Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment
or setoff. 
  
 (b) Upon satisfaction of any
applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall promptly pay amounts received in accordance with the prior subsection available in like funds as received, as follows: (i) if payable to Borrower, by crediting the
Designated 
  

 - 27 - 








 Deposit Account, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at its Lending
Office. In the case of amounts held by Administrative Agent that are payable to Borrower, if any applicable terms and conditions are not so satisfied, Administrative Agent shall return any funds it is holding that would otherwise be payable to
Borrower to the Lenders making such funds available, without interest. 
  
 (c) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment to be made by Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding
Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest and fees. 
  
 (d) Unless Borrower or any Lender has notified Administrative Agent prior to the date any payment to be made by it is due, that it does
not intend to remit such payment, Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, assume that Borrower or Lender, as the case may be, has timely remitted such payment and may, in its sole and absolute discretion and in reliance
thereon, make available such payment to the Person entitled thereto. If such payment was not in fact remitted to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then: 
  
 (i) if Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to Administrative Agent the amount
of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to
Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate; and 
  
 (ii) if
any Lender failed to make such payment, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such
corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount
forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent promptly shall notify Borrower, and Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest on such corresponding amount in respect
of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such
Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender
hereunder. 
  
 (e) If Administrative Agent or any
Lender is required at any time to return to Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official under any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, any portion of a payments made by Borrower, each Lender shall, on demand of
Administrative Agent, return its share of the amount to be returned, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate. 
  
 2.10 Funding Sources. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed
to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 2.11 Collateral. Borrower’s Obligations are secured by or will be secured by the
General Security Agreement and the Stock Pledge Agreements. 
  
 2.12 Additional Loan Commitments. 
  
 (a) Provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower shall have the option from time to time, by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent on or before the Maturity Date (“Increase
Notice”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to increase the Total Commitments (i) without the prior consent of Lenders by an amount up to USD$25,000,000 (which, assuming no previous reduction in the Commitments,
would result in a maximum Total Commitment of USD$75,000,000) and (ii) thereafter, with the consent of all the Lenders, by an additional amount up to USD$50,000,000 (which assuming no previous reduction in the Commitments, would result in a maximum
Total Commitment of USD$125,000,000). The amount of the requested increase is to be set forth in the Increase Notice. The increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to any such particular request shall be at least in the Minimum Amount but in no
event greater than the amounts set forth 2.12 (a)(i) or 2.12(a)(ii),as the case may be, less any previous increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this Section and less any reduction pursuant to Section 2.5 (“Requested Increase”). The
Increase Notice shall contain such other details with respect to such Requested Increase as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. The execution and delivery of the Increase Notice by Borrower shall constitute a representation and
warranty by Borrower that all the conditions set forth in this Section 2.12 shall have been satisfied on the date of such Increase Notice. Administrative Agent will use its best efforts, with the assistance of Borrower, to arrange with Lenders or
new lenders for Commitments (including the then-existing Commitments) aggregating the-existing Total Commitment plus the Requested Increase. 
  
 (b) Upon receipt of Increase Notice, from Borrower, Administrative Agent shall promptly send a copy of the Increase Notice to each Lender
and shall request that each Lender increase its Commitment by an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Requested Increase (“First Request”). Each Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to increase its Commitment by an
amount up to its Pro Rata Share of the Requested Increase, and shall have a period of fifteen (15) days from the First Request to notify Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Lender elects so to increase its Commitment and by what
amount (“First Request Response”). Any Lender that fails to respond to the First Request within such fifteen (15)-day period will be deemed to have elected not to increase their respective Commitment. If all Lenders elect to increase their
respective Commitments by amounts equal to their respective Pro Rata Share of the Requested Increase, Administrative Agent shall so notify Borrower and Lenders, and Borrower shall proceed in accordance with Section (c) below. If any Lender (any such
Lender, a “Declining Lender”) shall not elect or shall be deemed to have elected not to increase its Commitment as aforesaid or has elected to increase its Commitment by less than its Pro Rata Share of the Requested Increase, (i) the
amount of such Declining Lender’s Commitment shall remain unchanged or adjusted to increase its Commitment in the amount 
  

 - 29 - 








 set forth in its First Request Response, as the case may be, (ii) Administrative Agent shall notify
Borrower and each of the other Lenders as to which Lenders have elected to increase their Commitments and by what amounts and (iii) if Borrower so requests, Administrative Agent shall either (A) solicit from the Lenders that elected to increase
their respective Commitments a further increase in their Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to all or any portion of the aggregate amount of the Declining Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Requested Increase (“Shortfall”) or (B)
submit a list of proposed lenders that are not then a party to this Credit Agreement to Borrower for its review and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in order to obtain additional Commitments in an amount equal to
the Shortfall. 
  
 (c) In connection with the
Requested Increase in the Commitments of some or all of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.12(b) above, Borrower shall execute a modification to its Notes (“Modified Note”) evidencing such increase, as well as such other modifications to
this Credit Agreement as Administrative Agent and Borrower shall agree upon. In connection with the addition of new lenders as a result of solicitations by Administrative Agent pursuant to 2.12(b) above (“New Lenders”), Borrower,
Administrative Agent and each New Lender shall execute an Acceptance Letter in the form of Exhibit F, Borrow shall execute a Note to each New Lender in the amount of the New Lender’s Commitment (a “New Note”) and Borrower,
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall execute such modifications to this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, modifications of the financial covenants contained in Sections 7.12(a) and 7.12(b) hereof) as Administrative Agent and
Borrower shall agree upon, whereupon the New Lender shall become, and have the rights and obligations of a “Lender”, with a Commitment in the amount set forth in such Acceptance Letter. The Lenders shall have no right of approval with
respect to a New Lender’s becoming a Lender or the amount of its Commitment; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall have such right of approval, not to be unreasonably withheld. Each Modified Note and New Note shall constitute a
“Note” for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. Borrower shall also execute and deliver to Administrative Agent and the Lenders such additional documents, instruments, certifications and opinions as the Administrative Agent may require
in its reasonable discretion, including, without limitation, a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents after giving effect to the increase, and any
amendments to Security Documents, as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, and Borrower shall pay any updated UCC searches, all filing costs and fees, and any and all intangible taxes or other taxes, assessments or charges or any similar
fees, taxes or expenses which are demanded in connection with such increase. 
  
 (d) If at the time a New Lender becomes a Lender (or a Lender increases its Commitment) pursuant to this Section 2.12 there is any principal outstanding under the existing Notes of the previously admitted Lenders (the
“Existing Lenders”), such New Lenders (or Lender increasing its Commitment) shall remit to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Outstanding Percentage (as defined below) multiplied by the Commitment of the New Lenders (or the amount
of the increase in the Commitment of a Lender increasing its Commitment), which amount shall be deemed advanced under the Loan of the New Lender (or the Lender increasing its Commitment). Administrative Agent shall pay such amount to the Existing
Lenders in 
  

 - 30 - 








 accordance with the Existing Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares (as calculated immediately prior to
the admission of the New Lenders (or the increase in a Lender’s Commitment), and such payment shall effect an automatic reduction of the outstanding principal balance under the respective Notes of the Existing Lenders. For purposes of this
Section, the term “Outstanding Percentage” means the ratio of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount under the Notes of the Existing Lenders, immediately prior to the admission of the New Lender (or the increase in the Commitment
of a Lender), to (ii) the aggregate of the Commitments of the Existing Lenders (as increased pursuant to this Section, if applicable) and the New Lenders. Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.1, which shall thereafter be
incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to Lenders and their Commitments. 
  
 (e) The obligation of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or New Lenders to make the Requested Increase in the Total Commitment
pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied prior to the effectiveness of any increase of the Total Commitment: 
  
 (i) Payment of Arrangement Fee. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent such fees as Administrative Agent and the Lenders may require to increase the aggregate Commitment, which fees shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances. The Administrative Agent shall pay to the Lenders
acquiring the increased Commitment certain fees pursuant to their separate agreement; and 
  
 (ii) No Default. On the date such Increase Notice is given and on the date such increase becomes effective, both immediately before and after the Commitment is increased, there shall exist no Default or Event of
Default; and 
  
 (iii) Representations and Warranties. The
representations and warranties made by Borrower in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its respective Subsidiaries in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct in all
material respects, when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such Increase Notice and on the date the Total Commitment is increased, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased; and

  
 (iv) Other. Borrower shall satisfy such other conditions to
such Requested Increase as Administrative Agent may require in its reasonable discretion. 
  
 SECTION III 
 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
  
 3.1 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Any and all payments by Borrower to or for the account
of Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and
all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of Administrative Agent and each Lender, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, (ii) franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes) by the jurisdiction (or any
political subdivision thereof) under the Laws 
  

 - 31 - 








 of which Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a lending
office; (iii) any branch profits tax imposed by the United States or any similar tax imposed by another jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located; (iv) applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code that is withheld by
Administrative Agent from a payment to any Foreign Lender (as defined in Section 10.22 of this Agreement) pursuant to Section 10.22; and (v) any penalties, interest, costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) imposed on Administrative Agent or
any Lender arising from the assertion by any Governmental Authority that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of any Foreign Lender (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies,
imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under
any Loan Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender (other than as a result of a breach by a Foreign Lender of its obligations under Section 10.22 of this Agreement), (A) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), Administrative Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (B) Borrower shall
make such deductions, (C) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (D) within 30 days after the date of such payment, Borrower shall furnish to
Administrative Agent (who shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
  
 (b) In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property
taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as
“Other Taxes”). 
  
 (c) Borrower agrees
to indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by
Administrative Agent and such Lender; and (ii) any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that (A) Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent or any
Lender for any penalties described in clause (ii) above to the extent the Administrative Agent or such Lender (1) had actual knowledge of the existence of the tax, interest, or expense, the non-payment of which gave rise to such penalties, and (2)
failed to give Borrower notice of such tax, interest or expense within ten (10) Business Days after the Administrative Agent or such Lender received actual knowledge of the existence thereof; and (B) except to the extent contemplated in clause (A)
of this Section 3.1(c), nothing contained in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to imply any obligation on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to provide Borrower with the notice of any such tax, penalty, interest or expense. Payment
under this subsection (d) shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a demand therefor. 
  

 - 32 - 








 3.2 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Laws have 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 Offshore Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of,
Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Offshore Rate, then, on notice thereof by Lender to Borrower through Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make Offshore Rate
Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Administrative Agent and Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to
Administrative Agent), prepay or Convert all Offshore Rate Loans of such Lender, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if Lender
may not lawfully continue to maintain such Offshore Rate Loans. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be
materially disadvantageous to such Lender. 
  
 3.3 Inability to
Determine Rates. If, in connection with any Request for Extension of Credit involving any Offshore Rate Loan, Administrative Agent determines that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore dollar market for
the applicable amount and Interest Period of the requested Offshore Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the underlying interest rate for such Offshore Rate Loan, or (c) such underlying interest rate does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender of funding such Offshore Rate Loan, Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower and all Lenders. Thereafter, the obligation of all Lenders to make or maintain such Offshore Rate Loan shall be
suspended until Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Offshore Rate Loans or, failing that, be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 
  
 3.4 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy. 
  
 (a) If any Lender determines that any Laws announced after the date hereof: 
  
 (i) impose on such Lender any Tax, duty, or other charge with respect to any Offshore Rate Loans or its obligation to make Offshore Rate Loans (other
than as a result of any change in the rate of applicable taxes imposed on or measured by net income); 
  
 (ii) change the basis on which Taxes are imposed on any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement in respect of any Offshore Rate Loans;

  
 (iii) impose or modify any reserve, special deposit, or
similar requirement (other than the reserve requirement utilized in the determination of the Offshore Rate) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (including
its Commitment); or 
  
 (iv) impose on such Lender or on the
offshore Dollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining any Offshore Rate Loans or to reduce
any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement with respect to any Offshore Rate Loans, then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to 
  

 - 33 - 








 Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
increased cost or reduction (except to the extent that such increased cost or reduction is an amount subject to Section 3.1, in which case the sum received or receivable by such Lender shall be increased in accordance with the provisions of Section
3.1). 
  
 (b) If any Lender determines that any
change in or the interpretation of any Laws announced after the date hereof have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender
as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy
of such demand to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to compensate any
Lender for (i) any applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code that is withheld by Administrative Agent from a payment to any Foreign Lender pursuant to Section 10.22, (ii) any reduction in connection with any penalties,
interest, costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) arising from the assertion by any Governmental Authority that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of any Foreign Lender; or
(iii) any change in the rate of applicable taxes imposed on or measured by net income. 
  
 3.5 Breakfunding Costs. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent) from time to time, Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or
expense incurred by it as a result of: 
  
 (a)
any Continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

  
 (b) any failure by Borrower (for a reason
other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, Continue or Convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by Borrower; 
  
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to
maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
  
 3.6 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. 

 
 (a) The Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming
compensation under this Section 3, Lender shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder, which shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error.
In determining such amount, Lenders may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. For purposes of this Section 3, a Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Offshore Rate Loan at the 
  

 - 34 - 








 Offshore Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore Dollar interbank
market, whether or not such Offshore Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
  
 (b) Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amount under this Section 3 which arose prior to the date which is 180 days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is 180
days preceding the date of such demand; provided, however, that in the event any Law is enacted that retroactively imposes any cost or charge upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender that would otherwise be a basis for compensation under Sections
3.1 through 3.5, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may make a demand for such compensation through and including the date which is 180 days after the date upon which such Law takes effect. 
  
 (c) Upon any Lender making a claim for compensation under
Section 3.1 or 3.4, Borrower may remove and replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.22. 
  
 3.7 Survival. All of Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall survive for a period of one (1) year after the later of termination of
the Commitments, and payment in full of all Obligations; provided, however, that the obligation of Borrower to make any payment under this Section 3 is contingent upon the receipt by Borrower of the certificate described in Section 3.6(a) within the
later of (a) 180 days after the later of the repayment of all Loans, the termination of all Letters of Credit and the termination of the Commitment, or (b) in the case of any Law retroactively imposing any cost or charge upon the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, 180 days after the date upon which such Law takes effect.

the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in effect. No part of the proceeds of any Extensions of Credit hereunder will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” “margin

respect thereto and, to the best knowledge of Borrower, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification. Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to Section 412 of
the Code, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with respect to any Plan. There has been no prohibited transaction (which is not otherwise exempt under

 (b) (i) No ERISA Event has occurred or, to the best of
knowledge of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate, is reasonably expected to occur; (ii) no Pension Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability; (iii) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to incur, any liability under
Title IV of ERISA with respect to any Pension Plan (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA); (iv) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or, to the best of knowledge of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate,
reasonably expects to incur, any liability (and, to the best of knowledge of Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate, no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Sections 4201 or
4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan; and (v) neither Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Sections 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

Environmental Laws and claims alleging potential liability or responsibility for violation of any Environmental Law on their respective businesses, operations and properties, and as a result thereof Borrower has reasonably concluded that such

purposes specified in clauses 4(a) through (j), inclusive, of the special instructions for complying with Schedule 13D under the Exchange Act, and (y) “change in control” means, for any Person, an Acquisition with respect to such Person.

prepay, redeem, purchase, defease or otherwise satisfy in any manner prior to the scheduled payment thereof any Subordinated Debt except as otherwise permitted under this Section 7.11; amend, modify or otherwise change the terms of any document,
instrument or agreement evidencing Subordinated Debt such that such amendment, modification or change would (i) cause the outstanding aggregate principal amount of all such Subordinated Debt so amended, modified or changed to be increased (except as
a consequence of the deferral of cash interest payments by adding such payments to the principal amount thereof) as a consequence of such amendment, modification or change, (ii) increase the interest rate applicable thereto, or (iii) accelerate the
scheduled payment thereof.

or performance of any other agreement or covenant relating to any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness hereunder) or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto, or any other event shall occur, the effect of

Indebtedness in excess of the Threshold Amount to become payable or cash collateral in respect thereof to be demanded on account of such default or other event; or (ii) the occurrence under any Swap Contract of an Early Termination Date (as defined

 indices underlying any such Swap Contract), and as to which, in either event, the Swap Termination Value
owed by Borrower or such Subsidiary as a result thereof is greater than the Threshold Amount; provided, however, that a Voluntary Redemption Event shall not constitute an Event of Default under this Section 8.1(f); or

 - 52 - 








 8.2 Certain Financial Covenant Defaults. In the event that, after taking into account any
extraordinary charge to earnings taken or to be taken as of the end of any fiscal period of Borrower (a “Charge”), and if solely by virtue of such Charge, there would exist an Event of Default due to breach of Section 7.12 as of such
fiscal period end date, such Event of Default shall be deemed to arise upon the earlier of (i) the date after such fiscal period end date on which Borrower announces publicly it will take, is taking or has taken such Charge (including an
announcement in the form of a statement in a report filed with the SEC) or, if such announcement is made prior to such fiscal period end date, the date that is such fiscal period end date, and (ii) the date Borrower delivers to Administrative Agent
its audited annual or unaudited quarterly financial statements in respect of such fiscal period reflecting such Charge as taken. 
  
 8.3 Remedies Upon Event of Default. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or Lenders provided for elsewhere in this
Agreement, or the other Loan Documents, or by applicable Law, or in equity, or otherwise: 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of any Event of Default other than an Event of Default described in Section 8.1(j):

  
 (i) Requisite Lenders may request Administrative Agent to,
and Administrative Agent thereupon shall, terminate the Commitments and/or declare all or any part of the unpaid principal of all Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents to be immediately
due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be immediately due and payable, without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower; and/or 
  
 (ii) Issuing Lender, with the approval of Administrative Agent on behalf of
Requisite Lenders, may demand immediate payment by Borrower of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Usage to be held in a blocked Letter of Credit cash collateral account held with Issuing Lender. 

 
 (b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described
in Section 8.1(j): 
  
 (i) the Commitments and all other
obligations of Administrative Agent or Lenders shall automatically terminate without notice to or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly waived by Borrower; 
  

(ii) the unpaid principal of all Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents shall be
immediately due and payable, without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower; and 
  
 (iii) an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Usage shall be immediately due and
payable to Issuing Lender without notice to or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly waived by Borrower, to be held in a blocked Letter of Credit cash collateral account held with Administrative Agent. 
  
 (c) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lenders and
Administrative Agent, or any of them, without notice to (except as expressly provided for in any Loan Document) or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly waived by Borrower (except as to notices expressly provided for in any Loan Document), may
proceed to (but only with the 
  

 - 53 - 








 consent of Requisite Lenders) protect, exercise and enforce their rights and remedies under the Loan
Documents against Borrower and such other rights and remedies as are provided by Law or equity (including, without limitation, the provisions of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code). 
  
 (d) Except as permitted by Section 10.5, no Lender may exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the
Obligations without the consent of Requisite Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion. The order and manner in which Administrative Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies are to be exercised shall be determined by Requisite Lenders
in their sole and absolute discretion. Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Obligations hereunder, payments shall be applied first, to costs and expenses (including
Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent and each Lender, second, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans to and including the date of such application, third, to the payment of the unpaid principal of the Loans, and
fourth, to the payment of all other amounts (including fees) then owing to Administrative Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents, in each case paid pro rata to each Lender in the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed to each
Lender under the Loan Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed under the Loan Documents to all Lenders, without priority or preference among Lenders. No application of payments will cure any Event of Default, or prevent acceleration, or
continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder or thereunder or at Law or in equity. 
  
 SECTION IX 
 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
  
 9.1 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 9.9) appoints, designates and authorizes
Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities
shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to
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 merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or
reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
  

 - 54 - 








 (b) Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit
issued by it and the documents associated therewith until such time and except for so long as Administrative Agent may agree at the request of Requisite Lenders to act for such Issuing Lender with respect thereto; provided, however, that Issuing
Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to Administrative Agent in this Section 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be
issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Section 9 included Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or
omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to Issuing Lender. 
  
 9.2 Delegation of Duties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice
of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care. 
  
 9.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Administrative Agent-Related
Person shall (i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any Lender for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other
Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness,
genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related
Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books
or records of Borrower or any of Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates. 
  
 9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 
  
 (a) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or
telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or
concurrence of Requisite Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to
take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, if
required hereunder, and such request and any action taken or 
  

 55 








 failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of Lenders. Where this Agreement expressly
permits or prohibits an action unless Requisite Lenders otherwise determine, and in all other instances, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of Lenders. 
  
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the
conditions specified in Section 4.1, each Lender that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by Administrative Agent to such Lender
for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender. 
  
 (c) Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent, upon payment of the amount certified by Borrower as the full and final payment of
all principal, interest, fees and other charges outstanding under this Agreement, and following termination of the Commitments, to execute with and in favor of Borrower a termination letter that, inter alia, terminates Borrower’s obligation to
observe any or all of the covenants in Sections 3, 6 and 7 hereof. 
  
 9.5 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required
to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such
notice is a “notice of default”. Administrative Agent will notify Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be directed by Requisite
Lenders in accordance with Section 8; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such direction, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of Lenders. 
  
 9.6 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Administrative Agent-Related Person has
made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute
any representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender, including any
Lender by assignment, represents to Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and
made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems
necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of 
  

 - 56 - 








 Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative
Agent herein, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of any Administrative Agent-Related Person. 
  
 9.7 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, Lenders shall indemnify upon
demand each Administrative Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person from and
against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Administrative Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person’s
gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document,
or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder
and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 
  
 9.8 Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. KeyBank and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though KeyBank were not Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender hereunder and without notice to or consent of Lenders. Lenders acknowledge
that, pursuant to such activities, KeyBank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such Affiliate) and
acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, KeyBank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as
though it were not Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender. 
  
 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, and at the request of Requisite Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to Lenders. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement,
Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among Lenders a successor administrative agent for Lenders which successor administrative agent shall be approved by Borrower. If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the
resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrower and upon approval of Borrower (other than at any time as there exists an Event of Default) which will not be unreasonably withheld, a
successor administrative agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this 
  

 - 57 - 








 Section 9 and Sections 10.3 and 10.11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent (whether due to absence of Borrower approval or otherwise) by the date which is 30 days following a
retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such
time, if any, as Requisite Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, KeyBank may not be removed as Administrative Agent at the request of Requisite Lenders unless KeyBank shall also
simultaneously be replaced as “Issuing Lender” hereunder pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to KeyBank. 
  
 9.10 Syndication Agent; Documentation Agent. None of Lenders (or Affiliates of Lenders) identified on the facing page or signature pages of this
Agreement as a “Syndication Agent” or “Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement in such capacity. Without limiting the foregoing, none of Lenders (or
Affiliates of Lenders) so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of Lenders (or Affiliates of Lenders) so identified in
deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 
  
 SECTION X 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 10.1 Amendments; Consents. No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by Requisite Lenders and acknowledged by Administrative Agent, and
each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, without the approval in writing of Administrative Agent and all Lenders, no
amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent may be effective: 
  
 (a) To reduce the amount of principal, principal prepayments or the rate of interest payable on, any Loan, or the amount of any fee or
other amount payable to any Lender under the Loan Documents (unless such modification is consented to by each Lender entitled to receive such fee ) or to waive an Event of Default consisting of the failure of Borrower to pay when due principal,
interest or any commitment fee; 
  
 (b) To
postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, prepayment of principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Loan or any installment of any commitment fee, to extend the term of, or increase the amount of, any Lender’s Commitment
(it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default shall not constitute an extension or increase in the Commitment of any Lender) or modify the Pro Rata Share of any Lender; 
  
 (c) Except to the extent any release of collateral is contemplated under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, to release collateral in which Lenders have a security interest to secure the performance of Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents constituting more than 20% of the value of Borrower’s consolidated assets; 

 

 - 58 - 








 (d) To amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or the provisions of Section
4, Section 9, this Section 10.1 or Section 10.6; or 
  
 (e) To amend any provision of this Agreement that expressly requires the consent or approval of all Lenders; provided, however, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Issuing Lender in addition to
Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of Issuing Lender, (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Administrative Agent in addition to Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as
the case may be, affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent, and (iii) the fee letters may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto. Any amendment, modification, supplement,
termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all Lenders and Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.2 Transmission and Effectiveness of Communications and Signatures. 
  
 (a) Modes of Delivery. Except as otherwise provided in any Loan Document, notices, requests, demands,
directions, agreements and documents delivered in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively, “communications”) shall be transmitted by Requisite Notice to the number and address set forth on Schedule 10.2, may be delivered by the
following modes of delivery, and shall be effective as follows: 
  

			
	Mode of Delivery	  	Effective on earlier of actual receipt and:

 (b) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act on any
communications purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower even if (i) such communications (A) were not made in a manner specified herein, (B) were incomplete or (C) were not preceded or followed by any other notice specified herein, or (ii) the
terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any subsequent related communications provided for herein. Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent and Lenders from any loss, cost, expense or liability as a result of relying on any
communications permitted herein. 
  
 (c)
Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Documents and agreements delivered from time to time in 
  

 - 59 - 








 connection with the Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of
any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as hardcopies with manual signatures and shall be binding on all Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Administrative Agent and Lenders. Administrative
Agent may also request that any such documents and signature be confirmed by a manually-signed hardcopy thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver any such manually-signed hardcopy shall not affect the effectiveness of any
facsimile documents or signatures. 
  
 10.3 Attorney Costs,
Expenses and Taxes. Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents (not to exceed
$35,000), and the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of any amendment, waiver, consent, supplement or modification to, any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including all
reasonable Attorney Costs, and (b) to pay or reimburse Administrative Agent and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with any refinancing, restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization), collection and
enforcement or attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights under any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, or in connection with any refinancing, or restructuring of any such documents in the
nature of a “workout” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, including Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all reasonable search, filing, and appraisal charges and fees and documentary, stamp or similar
taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any amount payable by
Borrower under this Section shall bear interest from the tenth (10th) Business Day following the date of demand for payment at the Default Rate, unless waived by Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all
Obligations. 
  
 10.4 Binding Effect; Assignment.

  
 (a) This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Lenders and Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that, Borrower may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder
or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such attempted assignment shall be void. Any Lender may at any time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this
Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release each such Lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge. 
  
 (b) From time to time following the Closing Date, each
Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its Commitment and/or Extensions of Credit; provided that (i) such assignment, if not to a Lender or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender, shall be consented to by Borrower at
all times other than during the existence of a Default or Event of Default and by Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender (which approval of Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) a copy of a duly signed and completed Assignment and
Acceptance shall be delivered to Administrative Agent, (iii) except in the case of an assignment (A) to an 
  

 - 60 - 








 Affiliate of the assigning Lender or to another Lender or (B) of the entire remaining Commitment of the
assigning Lender, the portion of the Commitment assigned shall not be less than the Minimum Amount therefor, and (iv) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, but not earlier than the date
which is five Business Days after the date Administrative Agent has received the Assignment and Acceptance. Upon any required consent by Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and Borrower to such assignment and payment of the requisite fee described
below, the assignee named therein shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, with the Pro Rata Share therein set forth and, to the extent of such Pro Rata Share, the assigning Lender shall be released from its further obligations under
this Agreement. Borrower agrees that it shall execute and deliver upon request (against delivery by the assigning Lender to Borrower of any Note) to such assignee Lender, one or more Notes evidencing such assignee Lender’s Loans, and to the
assigning Lender if requested, one or more Notes evidencing Loans under any Commitment retained by the assigning Lender. Administrative Agent’s consent to any assignment shall not be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any
Administrative Agent-Related Person as to any matter. For purposes hereof, each mutual fund that is an Affiliate of a Lender shall be deemed to be a single Eligible Assignee, whether or not such fund is managed by the same fund manager as other
mutual funds that are Affiliates of the same Lender. 
  
 (c) After receipt of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and receipt of an assignment fee of USD$3,500 from such Eligible Assignee (including in the case of assignments to Affiliates of assigning Lenders), Administrative Agent shall,
promptly following the effective date thereof, provide to Borrower and Lenders a revised Schedule 10.2 giving effect thereto. 
  
 (d) Each such Lender may from time to time, without the consent of any other Person, grant participations to one or more other Person
(including another Lender) of all or any portion of its Pro Rata Share of its Commitment or Extensions of Credit; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain
solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) participating banks or other financial institutions shall not be a Lender hereunder for any purpose except, if the participation agreement so provides, for
the purposes of Section 3 (but only to the extent that the cost of such benefits to Borrower does not exceed the cost which Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation) and subject to Sections 10.5 and 10.6, (iv)
Borrower, Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) the participation agreement shall not restrict an
increase in the combined Commitments, or in granting Lender’s Pro Rata Share, so long as the amount of the participation interest is not affected thereby, and (iv) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not be required
for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that the assigning Lender may, in any agreement with a participant, give such participant the right to consent to any matter which (A) extends the Maturity Date as to
such participant or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to such participant, (B) reduces 
  

 - 61 - 








 the rate of interest owing to such participant, any fee or any other monetary amount owing to such
participant, or (C) reduces the amount of any installment of principal owing to such participant. Any Lender that sells a participation to any Person that is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code
shall include in its participation agreement with such Person a covenant by such Person that such Person will comply with the provisions of Section 10.22 as if such Person were a Lender and provide that Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be
third party beneficiaries of such covenant. 
  
 10.5
Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders or any assignee or participant of any Lender or any Affiliate thereof (each, a “Proceeding Party”) provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Proceeding Party is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Borrower, any such notice being waived by Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to proceed directly, by
right of set-off, banker’s lien, or otherwise, against any assets of Borrower and its Subsidiaries which may be in the hands of such Proceeding Party (including all general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits and other
indebtedness owing by such Proceeding Party to or for the credit or the account of Borrower) and apply such assets against the Obligations, irrespective of whether such Proceeding Party shall have made any demand therefor and although such
Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity
of such set-off and application. 
  
 10.6 Sharing of
Payments. Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim against Borrower or otherwise, receives payment on account of the Outstanding Obligations held by it that is
ratably more than any other Lender receives in payment on account of the Outstanding Obligations held by such other Lender, then, subject to applicable Laws: (a) the Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or
otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased, from the other Lender a participation in the Outstanding Obligations held by the other Lender and shall pay to the other Lender a purchase price
in an amount so that the share of the Outstanding Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise
of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all Lenders share any payment
obtained in respect of the Outstanding Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender’s share of the Outstanding Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that, if all or any portion of a
disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by Borrower or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the
rights of Borrower, the purchase of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that purchases a participation in the Outstanding Obligations
pursuant to this Section shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Outstanding Obligations purchased to the
same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Outstanding Obligations purchased. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased
may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased. 
  

 - 62 - 








 10.7 No Setoff. As to any and all funds, securities or other assets of Borrower which are now or
hereafter held by Administrative Agent or any Lender as collateral pursuant to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document for any of the obligations thereunder (collectively the “Collateral Assets”), Administrative Agent and the
Lenders agree that they shall not exercise any right of setoff or recoupment against nor shall they assert any security interest in the Collateral Assets in connection with any other obligation owed to Administrative Agent or any Lender which is
unrelated to the Credit Agreement or the Loan Documents, except for: (i) recovery for any items deposited with Administrative Agent or any Lender and returned unpaid or as to which claims have been asserted as to breach of transfer or presentment
warranties, (ii) overdrafts on any account which generated the funds which constitute part of the Collateral Assets, (iii) automated clearing house entries, and (iv) Administrative Agent or any Lender’s usual and customary fees for services
rendered in connection with the assets or bank accounts which constitute the Collateral Assets. 
  
 10.8 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
  
 (a) No failure by any Lender or Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any Lender or Administrative Agent in exercising, any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise
of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms and conditions of Section 4 may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, in respect of any Extension of Credit
without prejudicing Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s rights to assert them in whole or in part in respect of any other Extension of Credit. 
  
 (b) The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies,
powers and privileges provided by Law. Any decision by Administrative Agent or any Lender not to require payment of any interest (including Default Interest), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document or to calculate any amount
payable by a particular method on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver of Administrative Agent’s or Lender’s right to require full payment thereof, or to calculate an amount payable by another method that is not
inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or subsequent occasion. 
  
 (c) The terms and conditions of Section 9 are for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders. 
  
 10.9 Usury. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest and fees paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan
Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest or a fee in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the
excessive interest or fee shall be applied to the principal of the Outstanding Obligations or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest or a fee contracted for, charged, or received by
Administrative Agent or any Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary
prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations. 
  

 - 63 - 








 10.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
  
 10.11 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and
integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan
Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of Administrative Agent or Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this
Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 
  
 10.12 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations. Nothing contained in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and no action taken by Administrative Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make Lenders a partnership, an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among
themselves or with Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower. Each Lender’s obligation to make any Extension of Credit pursuant hereto is several and not joint or joint and several, provided that, in the case of the initial Extension of Credit
only, each lender’s obligation is conditioned upon the performance by all other Lenders of their obligations to make the initial Extension of Credit. A default by any Lender will not increase the Pro Rata Share attributable to any other Lender.

  
 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any Loan Document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery thereof but shall terminate the
later of (a) when the Commitments are terminated and (b) when no Obligations remain outstanding under any Loan Document. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by Administrative Agent and each Lender, notwithstanding
any investigation made by Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf. 
  
 10.14 Indemnity by Borrower. Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents,
attorneys and employees (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (other than Administrative Agent or any Lender)
relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any its officers or directors; (b) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of
action arising out of or relating to, the Loan Documents, any predecessor loan documents, the Commitments, the use or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Loan, property that is the subject of any Material Lease or any other collateral given to
secure the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, or the relationship of Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement; (c) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or
related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in subsection (a) or (b) above; and (d) all liabilities, claims, actions, loss, damages, including, without limitation, foreseeable and unforeseeable consequential damages, costs and
expenses (including sums paid in settlement of claims and all consultant, expert and legal fees and expenses of Indemnitees’ counsel) directly or indirectly arising out of or resulting from any Hazardous Substance being present at any time in
or around any part of Borrower’s properties (leasehold or fee), or in the soil, groundwater or soil vapor on or under Borrower’s properties (leasehold or fee), including those incurred in connection with any investigation of site
conditions or any clean-up, remedial, removal or restoration work, or any 
  

 - 64 - 








 resulting damages or injuries to the person or property of any third parties or to any natural resources; (e) any and all
liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (including Attorney Costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any
defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, including those liabilities caused by
an Indemnitee’s own negligence (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or
for any loss asserted against it by another Indemnitee. 
  
 10.15 Nonliability of Lender. 
  
 Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that: 
  
 (a) Any
inspections of any property of Borrower made by or through Administrative Agent or Lenders are for purposes of administration of the Loan Documents only, and Borrower is not entitled to rely upon the same (whether or not such inspections are at the
expense of Borrower); 
  
 (b) By accepting or
approving anything required to be observed, performed, fulfilled or given to Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency,
legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by Administrative Agent or
Lenders; 
  
 (c) The relationship between
Borrower and Administrative Agent and Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lenders; neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a
fiduciary relationship with Borrower or its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to Borrower or its Affiliates; neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes or assumes any responsibility or duty to Borrower or its Affiliates to select,
review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their property or the operations of Borrower or its Affiliates; Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own
judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by Lender in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of Lenders and neither
Borrower nor any other Person is entitled to rely thereon; and 
  
 (d) Neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall be responsible or liable to any Person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to property caused by the
actions, inaction or negligence of Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from any such loss, damage, liability or claim. 
  
 10.16 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made for the
purpose of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of Borrower, Administrative Agent and 
  

 - 65 - 








 Lenders in connection with the Extensions of Credit, and is made for the sole benefit of Borrower, Administrative Agent
and Lenders, and Administrative Agent and Lenders’ successors and assigns. Except as provided in Sections 10.13 and 10.21, no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof. 
  
 10.17 Severability. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability
in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 10.18 Confidentiality. Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use any confidential non-public information concerning Borrower and its
Subsidiaries that is furnished to Administrative Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively, “Confidential Information”) solely for the purpose of evaluating
and providing products and services to them and administering and enforcing the Loan Documents, and it will hold the Confidential Information in confidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose
Confidential Information to: (a) their Affiliates, or any of their or their Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, advisors, or representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) whom it determines need to know such
information for the purposes set forth in this Section; (b) any bank or financial institution or other entity to which such Lender has assigned or desires to assign an interest or participation in the Loan Documents or the Obligations, provided that
any such foregoing recipient of such Confidential Information agrees to keep such Confidential Information confidential as specified herein; (c) any governmental agency or regulatory body having or claiming to have authority to regulate or oversee
any aspect of Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s business or that of their Representatives in connection with the exercise of such authority or claimed authority; (d) the extent necessary or appropriate to effect or preserve
Administrative Agent or such Lender’s or any of their Affiliates’ security (if any) for any Obligation or to enforce any right or remedy or in connection with any claims asserted by or against Administrative Agent or such Lender or any of
its Representatives; and (e) pursuant to any subpoena or any similar legal process so long as Borrower is, or has been, given notice of such legal process and the opportunity to seek a protective order. For purposes hereof, the term
“Confidential Information” shall not include information that (x) is in Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s possession prior to its being provided by or on behalf of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, provided that such
information is not known by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with, or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality to, Borrower, (y) is or becomes publicly available (other than
through a breach hereof by Lender), or (z) becomes available to Administrative Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis, provided that the source of such information was not known by Administrative Agent or such Lender to be bound by a
confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. 
  
 10.19 Further Assurances. Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall, at their expense and without expense to Administrative Agent or Lenders, do, execute
and deliver such further acts and documents as any Lender or Administrative Agent from time to time reasonably requires for the assuring and confirming unto Lender of the rights hereby created or intended now or hereafter so to be, or for carrying
out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of any Loan Document. 
  
 10.20 Headings. Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other
purpose. 
  

 - 66 - 








 10.21 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents. 
  
 10.22 Foreign Lenders. Each Lender that is a “foreign
corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Agent, prior to receipt of any payment subject to withholding under the Code (or after accepting an assignment of
an interest herein), two duly signed completed copies of either Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Person and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all payments to be made to such Person by Borrower pursuant to
this Agreement) or Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Person by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) of the United States Internal Revenue Service or such other evidence satisfactory to Borrower and
Administrative Agent that no withholding under the federal income tax laws is required with respect to such Person. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person shall (a) promptly submit to Administrative Agent such additional duly completed
and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such
evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Person by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, and (b) take such steps as
shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws that Borrower make any
deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Person. If such Persons fail to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Person an amount equivalent to
the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of such Person, such Person
shall indemnify Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of Administrative Agent. The obligation of Lenders under this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations
and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 
  
 10.23 Removal and Replacement of Lenders. 
  
 (a) Under any circumstances set forth in this Agreement providing that Borrower shall have the right to remove and replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and
Administrative Agent, remove such Lender by (i) non-ratably terminating such Lender’s Commitment, and (ii) if being replaced, causing such Lender to assign its Commitment to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees acceptable to
Borrower, Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender; provided, however, that during the existence of any Event of Default, Borrower may not remove or replace a Lender pursuant to this Section 10.23. Any removed or replaced Lender shall be entitled to
(x) payment in full of all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender or such Lender’s affiliated Indemnitees under any Loan Document through the date of termination or assignment (including any amounts payable pursuant to
Section 3.5), (y) appropriate assurances and indemnities (which may include letters of credit) as such Lender may reasonably require with respect to its participation interest in any Letters of Credit and (z) a release of such Lender from its
obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance covering such Lender’s Commitment, and shall otherwise comply with Section 10.4. Administrative Agent shall distribute an
amended Schedule 2.1, which shall thereafter be incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to Lenders and their Commitments. 
  

 - 67 - 








 (b) In order to make all Lender’s interests in any outstanding Extensions of Credit
ratable in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to the removal or replacement of a Lender, Borrower shall pay or prepay, if necessary, on the effective date thereof, all outstanding Extensions of Credit of all Lenders,
together with any amounts due under Section 3.5. Borrower may then request Extensions of Credit from Lenders in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares. 
  

10.24 Governing Law. 
  
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS
MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE; PROVIDED THAT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW. 
  
 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE
BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. BORROWER, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY
BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY THE LAW OF SUCH STATE. 
  
 10.25 Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS
SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
