-2-
        







““Amendment No. 9 Effective Date”: means April 5, 2019.”
(c)    remove the definition of “Class C Revolving Commitment” and replace it in its entirety with the below:
““Class C Revolving Commitment”: with respect to each Class C Lender, the obligation of such Class C Lender, if any, to make Class C Revolving Loans and participate in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit in an aggregate principal and/or face amount not to exceed the amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule 1.1A hereto under the heading “Class C Revolving Commitment Amounts” or as may subsequently be set forth in the Register from time to time, as the same may be (x) reduced from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.14 or (y) increased from time to time pursuant to Section 2.25. The aggregate Class C Revolving Commitments of all Class C Lenders shall be $1,845,700,000 on the Amendment No. 9 Effective Date, as such amount may be adjusted from time to time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.”

Section 2.    Consent to the New Revolving Lender and other Amendments set forth herein.  
(a)    The Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks and the Borrower hereby consent to the New Revolving Lender becoming a “Lender” and providing Class C Revolving Commitments under the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.  
(b)    The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Existing Lenders party hereto constituting the Required Lenders (including each Fronting Bank) hereby consent to each of the amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth herein, including, without limitation the Incremental Revolving Facilities provided hereby and the increase in the L/C Commitment.
Section 3.    New Revolving Commitments.

On the Amendment No. 9 Effective Date, the Borrower shall, in coordination with the Administrative Agent, repay outstanding Revolving Loans of the Existing Lenders that are not Increasing Revolving Lenders, and incur additional Revolving Loans from the Increasing Revolving Lenders and the New Revolving Lender to the extent necessary so that all of the Lenders participate in each outstanding Borrowing of Revolving Loans pro rata on the basis of their respective Revolving Commitments (after giving effect to any increase in the Total Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Amendment).  The participations in any outstanding Letters of Credit shall be adjusted in accordance with each Lender's Revolving Commitment Percentage as reallocated in accordance with such increase of the Total Revolving Commitments.
