“Continued Term Loans,” and such Term Lenders, collectively, the “Continuing Term
Lenders”) will thereby (i) agree to the terms of this Agreement and (ii) agree to continue all or a portion of its

that are not continued as Extended Term Loans hereunder and (ii) pay accrued interest on any of the foregoing and any related premiums,
fees and expenses;


 


WHEREAS, each existing Revolving
Lender (each, an “Existing Revolving Lender”; the existing Revolving Loans held by it, its
“Existing Revolving Loans,” the existing Revolving Commitments held by it, its “Existing
Revolving Commitments”) that executes and delivers a signature page to this Agreement and in connection therewith
agrees to continue all or a portion of its outstanding Existing Revolving Commitments as Extended Revolving Commitments (such

collectively, the “Continuing Revolving Lenders”) will thereby (i) agree to the terms of this Agreement
and (ii) agree to continue all or a portion of its Existing Revolving Commitments outstanding on the Second Amendment
Effective Date as Extended Revolving Commitments in a principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such
Existing Revolving Commitments so continued (the amount so continued being the amount allocated to such Continuing Revolving
Lender by the Lead Arranger);


 


WHEREAS, each Person (other than a Continuing
Revolving Lender in its capacity as such) that agrees to make available Extended Revolving Commitments (collectively, the “Additional
Revolving Lenders”) will make available Extended Revolving Commitments (the “Additional Extended Revolving Commitments”)
to the Borrower on the Second Amendment Effective Date in such amount as is determined by the Lead Arranger and the Borrower and
notified to such Additional Revolving Lender;


 


WHEREAS, the Continuing Revolving
Lenders and the Additional Revolving Lenders (collectively, the “Extended Revolving Lenders” and, together

WHEREAS, the Borrower, each other Loan Party,
the Required Lenders, the Extended Term Lenders, the Extended Revolving Lenders and the Administrative Agent are willing to agree
to this Agreement on the terms set forth herein.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:


 


SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized
terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement.


 


SECTION 2. Extended Term Loans.


 


(a) Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein (i) each Continuing Term Lender agrees to continue all or a portion of its Existing Term Loans as
an Extended Term Loan on the date requested by the Borrower to be the Second Amendment Effective Date in a principal amount
equal to such Existing Term Loans and (ii) each Additional Term Lender agrees to make an Extended Term Loan on such date to
the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Additional Term Lender’s Extended Term Loan Commitment (as defined
below). For purposes hereof, a Person may become a party to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and an Extended Term
Lender as of the Second Amendment Effective Date by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the
Second Amendment Effective Date, a signed



    	 



    	



    

3


 


counterpart to this Agreement in its capacity as an Extended
Term Lender. The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of the proposed Second Amendment Effective Date not later
than one Business Day prior thereto, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Extended Term Lender thereof.


 


(b) Each Additional Term
Lender will make its Extended Term Loan on the Second Amendment Effective Date by making available to the Administrative
Agent, in the manner contemplated by Section 2.2 of the Credit Agreement, an amount equal to its Extended Term Loan
Commitment. The “Extended Term Loan Commitment” of any Additional Term Lender will be such amount (not
exceeding any commitment offered by such Additional Term Lender) allocated to it by the Lead Arranger and notified to it on
or prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date. The commitments of the Additional Term Lenders and the continuation
undertakings of the Continuing Term Lenders are several and no such Lender will be responsible for any other such
Lender’s failure to make or acquire by continuation its Extended Term Loan. The Extended Term Loans may from time to
time be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent as contemplated
by Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement. The execution of the Borrower of this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute
written irrevocable notice in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2 of the Credit Agreement requesting that
the Additional Term Lender make the Extended Term Loans. The Extended Term Lenders hereby agree to waive the notice
requirements of Section 2.2 of the Credit Agreement and any indemnity claim for LIBOR breakage costs under Section 2.18 of
the Credit Agreement in connection with the prepayment or replacement of Existing Term Loans contemplated hereby.


 


(c) The obligation of each
Extended Term Lender to make or acquire by continuation Extended Term Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date is subject
to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement.


 


(d) On and after the Second
Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended so that each reference in the Credit Agreement to
“Term Loans” shall be deemed a reference to the Extended Term Loans contemplated hereby, except as the context
may otherwise require. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification,
reimbursement of costs and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments shall continue in full force and effect with
respect to, and for the benefit of, each Existing Term Loan Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Term Loans.


 


(e) The continuation of
Continued Term Loans may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the Administrative Agent (in consultation
with the Borrower), including by repayment of Continued Term Loans of a Continuing Term Lender from the proceeds of Extended
Term Loans followed by a subsequent assignment to it of Extended Term Loans in the same amount.


 


SECTION 3. Extended Revolving Commitments.


 


(a) Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein (i) each Continuing Revolving Lender agrees to continue all or a portion of its Existing
Revolving Commitments as Extended Revolving Commitments on the date requested by the Borrower to be the Second Amendment
Effective Date in a principal amount equal to such Existing Revolving Commitments and (ii) each Additional Revolving Lender
agrees to make available Additional Extended Revolving Commitments on such date to the Borrower in a principal amount equal
to such Additional Revolving Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment (as defined below). For



    	 



    	



    

4


 


purposes hereof, a Person may become a party to the Credit Agreement
as amended hereby and an Extended Revolving Lender as of the Second Amendment Effective Date by executing and delivering to the
Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date, a signed counterpart to this Agreement in its capacity
as an Extended Revolving Lender. The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of the proposed Second Amendment Effective
Date not later than one Business Day prior thereto, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Extended Revolving Lender thereof.


 


(b) Each Additional Revolving
Lender will make its Extended Revolving Commitments available on the Second Amendment Effective Date by making available to
the Administrative Agent, in the manner contemplated by Section 2.5 of the Credit Agreement, an amount equal to its Extended
Revolving Commitment. The “Extended Revolving Commitment” of any Additional Revolving Lender will be such
amount (not exceeding any commitment offered by such Additional Revolving Lender) allocated to it by the Lead Arranger and
notified to it on or prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date. The commitments of the Additional Revolving Lenders and
the continuation undertakings of the Continuing Revolving Lenders are several and no such Lender will be responsible for any
other such Lender’s failure to make or acquire by continuation its Extended Revolving Commitments. The Extended
Revolving Loans under the Extended Revolving Commitments may from time to time be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as
determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent as contemplated by Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement.
The Extended Revolving Lenders hereby agree to waive any indemnity claim for LIBOR breakage costs under Section 2.18 of the
Credit Agreement in connection with the prepayment or replacement of Existing Revolving Loans contemplated hereby.


 


(c) The obligation of each
Extended Revolving Lender to make available or continue Extended Revolving Commitments on the Second Amendment Effective Date
is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7 of this Agreement.


 


(d) On and after the Second
Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended so that each reference in the Credit Agreement to
“Revolving Loans” and “Revolving Commitments” shall be deemed a reference to the Extended Revolving
Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments contemplated hereby, respectively, except as the context may otherwise require.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification, reimbursement of costs
and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments shall continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the
benefit of, each Existing Revolving Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Revolving Commitments.


 


(e) Each Extended Revolving
Lender shall make an Extended Revolving Loan on the Second Amendment Effective Date, the proceeds of which will be used to
repay Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders immediately prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date, and
participations in Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Extended Revolving Lenders, so that, after giving effect
thereto, the Extended Revolving Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and participations in Letters of Credit outstanding on
the Second Amendment Effective Date are held by the Extended Revolving Lenders pro rata based on their Extended Revolving
Commitments after giving effect to the Extended Revolving Commitments on the Second Amendment Effective Date (the
“Reallocation”). For the avoidance of doubt (a) commitment fees and interest shall be payable on the next
date that fees and interest are payable pursuant to Section 2.6 and Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement, respectively, and
reflect the relative principal amounts of Extended Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit held by the
Revolving Lenders both before and after the Reallocation, and the Borrower shall not



    	 



    	



    

5


 


be required to disburse an interest or fee payment to the Revolving
Lenders on the Second Amendment Effective Date (although interest and fees shall accrue on such date) merely due to receiving payment
of Revolving Loans on such date pursuant to the Reallocation and (b) none of the notifications contemplated by Section 2.8 shall
be required for any repayment of Revolving Loans made pursuant to the Reallocation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
after giving effect to the Reallocation, (i) the Applicable Margin for the Extended Revolving Loans held by the Extended Revolving
Lenders for the Interest Period in which the Second Amendment Effective Date occurs shall be calculated to give effect to the Reallocation
on and after the Second Amendment Effective Date and (ii) the Interest Period in which the Second Amendment Effective Date occurs
shall not be changed. Each Extended Revolving Lender agrees that the prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to the Reallocation
shall not be considered a prepayment for purposes of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement.


 


(f) The continuation of
Continued Revolving Commitments may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the Lead Arranger (in
consultation with the Borrower), including by repayment of Continued Revolving Commitments of a Continuing Revolving Lender
from the proceeds of Extended Revolving Loans followed by a subsequent assignment to it of Extended Revolving Loans in the
same amount.


 


SECTION 4. Declining Lenders.
If any (i) existing Term Lender holding Term Loans or (ii) existing Revolving Lender holding Revolving Commitments declines
or fails to consent to this Agreement (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”) by returning a signed
counterpart to this Agreement to the Administrative Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. New York time on Wednesday, March 15, 2017, then
pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, such Declining Lender may be replaced
and its relevant Loans and/or Commitments, as applicable, purchased and assumed by an assignee to be determined by the
Administrative Agent (which will also be deemed to be the execution of an Assignment and Assumption, and the execution of
this Agreement by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be deemed to be the consent of the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower (to the extent such consent is required under the Credit Agreement) thereto) and payment of the purchase price
required by Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement. For purposes hereof, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agree that
this Agreement shall constitute an Assignment and Assumption for purposes of the Credit Agreement (including, without
limitation, in respect of Section 2.20) and that the provisions set forth in Exhibit D to the Credit Agreement shall apply mutatis
mutandis in regard to any assignments effected hereby. For the avoidance of doubt, any Declining Lender may consent to
this Agreement solely in its capacity as Lender under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to being replaced on the Second
Amendment Effective Date for purposes of calculating receipt of the consent of the Required Lenders.


 


SECTION 5. Amendments.

Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is amended in a similar manner as set forth in the selected pages of the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement attached as Exhibit B hereto, (c) all of Exhibit A is deleted and replaced with

or 2.4(b)(ii)” with “2.1(b)(i)(z) or 2.4(b)(iii)” (collectively, such amendments, the
“Amendments”), except that any Schedule, Exhibit or other attachment to the Credit Agreement not amended
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise included as part of said Exhibit A or Exhibit B shall
remain in effect without any amendment



    	 



    	



    

6

Changes in the Applicable Margin and the Commitment Fee Rate
in either pricing grid above resulting from changes in the Consolidated Leverage Ratio
shall become effective on the date (the “Adjustment Date”) that is three Business Days after the date on which
financial statements are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 6.1 and shall remain in effect until the next change to be
effected pursuant to this paragraph. If any financial statements referred to above are not delivered within the time periods specified
in Section 6.1, then, until the date that is three Business Days after the date on which such financial statements are delivered,
the highest Applicable Margin and Commitment Fee Rate shall apply. Each

determination of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio pursuant hereto
shall be made in a manner consistent with the determination thereof pursuant to Section 7.1(a) (for
the avoidance of doubt, without giving effect to the first proviso of the definition of “Consolidated Total Debt”).
In the event that any financial statement or certification delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) is shown to be inaccurate (regardless
of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected,
would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than
the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, the Borrower shall immediately (a) deliver to the Administrative Agent
a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (b) determine the Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period based
upon the corrected Compliance Certificate, and (c) immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the
accrued additional interest and other fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period, which
payment shall be promptly distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders entitled thereto. Notwithstanding
anything else in this definition of “Applicable Margin” to the contrary, the Applicable Margin for each Type of Revolving
Loan or the Commitment Fee Rate and each Type of Term Loan will be determined based upon Level II of each corresponding pricing
grid above immediately upon the date of the consummation of the CEB Acquisition until the first Adjustment Date occurring thereafter.

2.4  Revolving Commitments. (a) Subject
to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (“Revolving
Loans”) to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal
amount at any one time outstanding which, when added to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the L/C Obligations then outstanding
does not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. During the Revolving Commitment Period the Borrower may
use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined
by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.10.


 


(b)  The Borrower may from time to time elect
to increase the Revolving Commitments (a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) in a minimum amount of $5,000,000
or such

lower amount if such amount represents all
remaining availability under the limit set in this Section 2.4(b) so long as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate
amount of the Incremental Extensions of Credit and Revolving Commitment Increases does not exceed (i) $750,000,000 plus
(ii) in the event the Term Loan B Facility is incurred as an Incremental Term Loan, $1,375,000,0001,400,000,000 plus
(iii) an additional unlimited amount, provided, that in the case of this clause (iii), (A) at the time of incurrence
(or the making of commitments if not drawn in full when committed) on a Pro Forma Basis (assuming that any such Revolving
Commitment Increase is drawn in full and excluding the cash proceeds of such Revolving Commitment Increase), the
Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio does not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for
which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b) and (B) committed but undrawn amounts for
which the requirements in clause (A) are met when committed shall subsequently be available to be drawn without a need to
meet such requirements. The Borrower may arrange for any such increase to be provided by one or more Lenders (each Lender so
agreeing to an increase in its Revolving Commitment, an “Increasing Revolving Lender”), or by one or more
new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an
“Augmenting Revolving Lender”), to increase their existing Revolving Commitments, or extend Revolving
Commitments, as the case may be, provided that (i) each Augmenting Revolving Lender, shall be subject to the approval
of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such approval by the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld) and
(ii) (x) in the case of an Increasing Revolving Lender, the Borrower and such Increasing Revolving Lender execute an
agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto, and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Revolving Lender, the Borrower
and such Augmenting Revolving Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto. Increases and new
Revolving Commitments created pursuant to this clause shall become effective on the date agreed by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent (such approval by the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld) and the relevant Increasing
Revolving Lenders or Augmenting Revolving Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender thereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Commitments (or in the Revolving Commitment of any Lender), shall
become effective under this paragraph unless, (i) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase, the conditions
set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 5.2 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders and the
Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible Officer
of the Borrower, (ii) after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, subject to Section 1.2(e), the Borrower
shall be in compliance with Section 7.1, and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with
those delivered on the Initial Closing Date under Section 5.1(f) as to the corporate power and authority of the Borrower to
borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase. On the effective date of any increase in the Revolving Commitments,
(i) each relevant Increasing Revolving Lender and Augmenting Revolving Lender shall make available to the Administrative
Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other
Revolving Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts to
make payments to such other Revolving Lenders, each Revolving Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of
all the Revolving Lenders to equal its Revolving Percentage of such outstanding Revolving Loans, and (ii) the Borrower shall
be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Revolving
Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable,
specified in a notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.5). The deemed payments made
pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence in respect of each Eurodollar Loan shall be subject to
indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.18 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the
last day of the related Interest Periods. For the avoidance of doubt, no existing Lender will be required to provide any
Revolving Commitment Increase and the Borrower shall have no

or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the
Revolving Commitments then in effect.


 


2.8  Optional
Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans of
any Facility, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative
Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no
later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify
the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar
Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any
amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant
Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified
therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount
prepaid. Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be applied to the prepayment
of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.15(b). Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate
principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof.


 


2.9  Mandatory Prepayments
and Commitment Reductions. (a) If on any date any Group Member shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or
Recovery Event, and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of the Borrower for the most recently ended four fiscal quarters is
greater than 2.50 to 1.00, then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, an amount equal to 50%
of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.9(b); provided
that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment
Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in
Section 2.9(b).


 


(b)  Amounts
to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term
Loans in accordance with Section 2.15(b). Subject to such Section 2.15(b),
the application of any prepayment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.9(a) shall be applied to Term Loans under any Facility
selected by the Borrower. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.9
with respect to a Facility shall
be made on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being repaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans
are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.9 with
respect to a Facility shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment
on the amount prepaid.


 


2.10  Conversion and Continuation Options.
(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior
irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion
date, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect
thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior
irrevocable notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed
conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan under
a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in

2.15 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.
(a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and
any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Percentages or Revolving
Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.


 


(b) Each payment
(including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans under
each Facility shall be made pro rata among
the Term Lenders under each such Facility according to the respective
outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders with
respect to each such Facility. The amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans under
each Facility shall be applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Term
Loans with respect to such
Facility pro rata based upon the then remaining principal amounts thereof.
Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

 


(c) Each payment (including each
prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata
according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.


 


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


 


(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall
have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute
its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making
such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available
to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on
the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at
a rate equal to the greater of (i) the NYFRB Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative
Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph
shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the
Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be
entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility,
on demand, from the Borrower.

deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank
eurodollar market. A certificate setting forth the calculation in reasonable detail as to any amounts payable pursuant to this
Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive
the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.


 


2.19 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.15(e), 2.15(f),
3.4, 3.5 or 9.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply
any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative
Agent or the Issuing Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations
are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future
funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined
by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.


 


2.20 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement
of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional
amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall
use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights
and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation
or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future
and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.
The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation
or assignment.


 


(b) If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.16, or does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent, or waiver of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document requested by the Borrower which requires the consent of (i)
each Lender affected thereby or (ii) all the Lenders (including
such Lender’s consent) and which has been consented to by the Required Lenders, or if the Borrower is required to pay any
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 and Section
2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject
to the restrictions contained in Section 10.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee
that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that
(i) such assignment does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) the Borrower shall be liable to the assigning Lender under
Section 2.18 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such assigning Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest
Period relating thereto, (iii) until such time as such assignment shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional
amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17(a), as the case may be, (iv) if the assignee is not already a Lender,
the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being
assigned, the Issuing Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (v) such Lender shall have received payment of
an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (vi) in the case of any






    	 



    	



    
49


 


such assignment resulting
from a claim for compensation under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (vii) any such assignment shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any
rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. No action by or
consent of the replaced Lender shall be necessary in connection with such removal or assignment, which shall be immediately and

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES


 


To induce the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the Issuing Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders and Issuing Lenders to make their
respective extensions of credit to the Borrower thereunder, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent,
each Lender and each Issuing Lender that:


 


4.1 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of
the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral by the Credit
Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others. None of the
Grantors have filed or consented to the filing of any financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any
part of the Collateral in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the
ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, pursuant to this Agreement or as are permitted by the Credit Agreement. Without
limiting the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any Grantor may, as part of its
business, grant licenses to third parties to practice or use Intellectual Property owned or developed by a Grantor. For
purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such licensing activity shall not constitute a “Lien” on
such Intellectual Property. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender understand that any such licenses may be
exclusive to the applicable licensees, and such exclusivity provisions may limit the ability of the Administrative Agent to
utilize, sell, lease or transfer the related Intellectual Property or otherwise realize value from such Intellectual Property
pursuant hereto.


 


4.2 Perfected
First Priority Liens. The security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and
other actions specified on Schedule 3 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule,
have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in completed and duly executed form) will constitute valid perfected security
interests in all of the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as
collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all
creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor, in each case, to the
extent such security interests may be perfected by such filings and other actions and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the
Collateral in existence on the date hereof except Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement.

of Organization; Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, such Grantor’s jurisdiction of organization,
identification number from the jurisdiction of organization (if any), and the location of such Grantor’s chief
executive office or sole place of business or principal residence, as the case may be, are specified on Schedule 4.

than mobile goods) are kept at the locations listed on Schedule 5.

Subsidiary Voting Stock of Issuers that are Foreign



    	 	 



     


    




Subsidiaries or Foreign Subsidiary Holdcos, the shares of Foreign
Subsidiary Voting Stock of such Issuers pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute 66% of all the issued and outstanding Foreign
Subsidiary Voting Stock of such Issuers (or, if such Grantor owns less than 66% of the issued and outstanding Foreign Subsidiary
Voting Stock of any Issuer that is a Foreign Subsidiary, the shares of Foreign Subsidiaries Voting Stock of such Issuer pledged
by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding Foreign Subsidiary Voting Stock of such Issuer that is owned
by such Grantor).


 


(b)
All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.


 


(c)
Each of the Pledged Notes constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor with respect thereto,
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general
equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair
dealing.


 


(d)
Such Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Investment Property pledged by
it hereunder, free of any and all Liens or options in favor of, or claims of, any other Person, except the security interest
created by this Agreement.

Property. (a) Schedule 6 lists all Grantor Registered Intellectual Property and all Copyright Licenses, Trademark
Licenses and Patent Licenses under which any Grantor is the exclusive licensee of a U.S. registered Copyright, Trademark
and/or Patent or applications therefor.


 


(b)

and enforceable.

No action or proceeding is pending, or, to the knowledge of such Grantor, threatened, (i) seeking to limit or cancel the
validity of any Grantor Registered Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s ownership interest therein, or (ii) which,
if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
