	2. 
	LIBOR Floor and Applicable Rate for Incremental Term Loans.

	Incremental Term Loans

	Eurocurrency Incremental Term Loans
	Base Rate Incremental Term Loans

	5.50%
	4.50%






		
	3. 
	Principal Payments of the Incremental Term Loans.  The (i) scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.09(d) of the Credit Agreement shall be automatically increased to reflect the aggregate principal amount of the  Incremental Term Loans and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that the Incremental Term Loans are included in each repayment of the Term B Loans on a pro rata basis (with the Incremental Term Loans being fungible with the Term B Loans) based upon the original principal amount of the Term B Loans and the Incremental Term Loans.  Any remaining outstanding amount of the Term B Loans (including the Incremental Term Loans) shall be repaid in full on the Term B Loan Maturity Date.


		
	4. 
	Incremental Term Loans Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayments; Incremental Term Loans Prepayment Fees.  Scheduled installments of principal of the Incremental Term Loans set forth above shall be reduced in connection with any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Incremental Term Loans in accordance with Sections 2.09 and 2.10 of the Credit Agreement, respectively, as if such Incremental Term Loans were (and on a pro rata basis with) Term B Loans.  Without duplication of the obligations of the U.S. Borrower under Section 2.09(a)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, in the event that, on or prior to December 7, 2017, the U.S. Borrower (x) prepays, repays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Term B Loans or Incremental Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii) of the Credit Agreement that constitutes a Repricing Transaction), or (y) effects any amendment, waiver or other modification of, or consent under, the Credit Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the U.S. Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term B Lenders and Initial Lenders, (A) in the case of clause (x), a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans or Incremental Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (B) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans or Incremental Term Loans outstanding immediately prior

to such amendment, waiver, modification or consent that are the subject of such Repricing Transaction.  If, on or prior to December 7, 2017, all or any portion of the Term B Loans or Incremental Term Loans held by any Lender are prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced pursuant to Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender not consenting with respect to any amendment, waiver, modification or consent referred to in clause (y) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution or replacement will be made at 101% of the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced.  All such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction.

Other than as set forth herein, for all purposes under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Incremental Term Loans shall have the same terms as the Term B Loans and shall be treated for purposes of voluntary and mandatory prepayments (including any applicable prepayment fees and for scheduled principal payments) and all other terms as the same Class of Term Loans as the Term B Loans.  The Incremental Term Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable tax rules and regulations, be structured as an increase to the Term B Loans that will trade fungibly with such Term B Loans.  Upon the funding of the Incremental Term Loans on the Closing Date, the Incremental Term Loans shall automatically and without further action by any Person constitute Term B Loans and Loans and the Initial Lenders shall be Lenders for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In furtherance of the foregoing, on the Closing Date, there shall commence an initial Interest Period with respect to the Incremental Term Loans, which Interest Period shall end on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to the Term B Loans as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date.
