Borrower shall give Administrative Agent irrevocable original request for an Advance in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J (a “Borrowing Notice”) (or a facsimile thereof or a “PDF” thereof
transmitted by electronic mail) not later than 9:00 A.M., Pacific time at least one Business Day prior to the date (the “Borrowing Date”) of each Variable Rate Advance and within the time period provided for in

90245, Attention: Ivonne Lopez (fax no. (310) 615-1014; e-mail address: lopezim@wellsfargo.com), with a copy to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 1750 H Street, Suite 400, Washington, DC 20006, Attention: Mark Monahan (fax no. (202) 419-2984; e-mail
address: monahamf@wellsfargo.com), or such other address or addressee as Administrative Agent shall designate. Each Borrowing Notice shall: 
 (i) specify the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, 
 (ii)
specify the aggregate amount of such Advance, and 
 (iii) identify whether the requested Advance is a Variable Rate Advance
or Fixed Rate Advance and, if it is a Fixed Rate Advance, shall include a Fixed Rate Notice in accordance with Section 2.6(f).

additional authorized agents as Borrower shall designate in writing to Administrative Agent. Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptances shall be directed to such officers of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may from

 24 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 of this Section 2.5. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to an Advance provided for in this
Agreement, each Lender shall make available its Revolving Loan in accordance with Section 10.3(b) and Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from Lenders available to Borrower on the Borrowing Date in immediately available
funds in an account maintained by Borrower with Administrative Agent. 
 2.6 INTEREST ON THE LOANS. 
 (a) Interest Payments. Interest accrued on the outstanding principal balance of the Loans shall be due and payable, in the manner provided in
Section 2.7, on the first day of each month commencing with the first month after the Effective Date. 
 (b) Default
Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in Sections 2.6(e) below and the payment dates specified in Section 2.6(a), at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the
principal balance of the Loans then outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans not paid when due, shall, at Requisite Lenders’ discretion, bear interest payable upon demand at the Alternate
Rate. All other amounts due Administrative Agent or Lenders (whether directly or for reimbursement) under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if not paid within the later of the date when due or ten (10) days after written demand
(which written demand may consist of the invoice for such payment), shall, at Requisite Lenders’ discretion, likewise bear interest from and after demand at the Alternate Rate. 
 (c) Late Fee. Borrower acknowledges that late payment to Administrative Agent will cause Administrative Agent and Lenders to incur costs not
contemplated by this Agreement. Such costs include, without limitation, processing and accounting charges. Therefore, if Borrower fails timely to pay any sum due and payable hereunder through the Maturity Date (other than payment of the entire
outstanding balance of the Loans on the Maturity Date), unless waived by Administrative Agent (to the extent it is permitted to do so pursuant to Section 11.12(a)) or the Requisite Lenders, a late charge of four cents ($.04) for each
dollar of any such principal payment, interest or other charge due hereon and which is not paid within fifteen (15) days after such payment is due, shall be charged by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lenders) and paid by Borrower for
the purpose of defraying the expense incident to handling such delinquent payment. Borrower and Administrative Agent agree that this late charge represents a reasonable sum considering all of the circumstances existing on the date hereof and
represents a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs that Administrative Agent and Lenders will incur by reason of late payment. Borrower and Administrative Agent further agree that proof of actual damages would be costly and inconvenient.
Acceptance of any late charge shall not constitute a waiver of the default with respect to the overdue installment, and shall not prevent Administrative Agent from exercising any of the other rights available hereunder or any other Loan Document.
Such late charge shall be paid without prejudice to any other rights of Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Computation of Interest. Interest
shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which interest or fees accrue and a year of three hundred sixty (360) days on the principal balance of each applicable Loan outstanding from time

  



 25 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 to time. In computing interest on the Loans, the date of the making of a disbursement of the Loan shall be included
and the date of payment shall be excluded. Notwithstanding any provision in this Section 2.6, interest in respect of the Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Interest Rate. 
 (e) Effective Rate. The “Effective Rate” upon which interest shall be calculated for the Advances shall, from and after the Effective
Date of this Agreement, be one or more of the following: 
 (i) Provided no Default has occurred that is continuing:

 (A) for Revolving Advances that are not Fixed Rate Advances, the Effective Rate shall be the Variable Rate. 
 (B) for Revolving Advances that are Fixed Rate Advances, the Effective Rate for the Fixed Rate Period thereof shall be the Fixed Rate
selected by Borrower and set in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, however, if any of the transactions necessary for the calculation of interest at any Fixed Rate requested or selected by Borrower should be or become
prohibited or unavailable to Administrative Agent, or, if in Administrative Agent’s good faith judgment, it is not possible or practical for Administrative Agent to set a Fixed Rate for a Fixed Rate Advance and Fixed Rate Period as requested or
selected by Borrower, Administrative Agent shall so notify Borrower and Lenders and the Effective Rate for such Fixed Rate Advance shall remain at or revert to the Variable Rate. 
 (C) for Swingline Loans, the Effective Rate shall be the Base Rate (or such other rate as may be agreed to by Borrower and Swingline
Lender). 
 (ii) At such time as a Default has occurred and is continuing; or from and after the date on which all sums owing
under the Notes become due and payable by acceleration or otherwise; or from and after the Maturity Date; then, in each case, at Requisite Lenders’ discretion, the interest rate applicable to the then outstanding principal balance of the Loans
shall be the Alternate Rate. 
 (f) Selection of Fixed Rate. Provided no Default or Potential Default exists under this Agreement,
Borrower, at its option and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, may request a Fixed Rate as the Effective Rate for calculating interest on all or any portion of the Revolving Advances and for the period selected in accordance with
and subject to the following procedures and conditions, provided, however, that Borrower may not have in effect at any one time more than five (5) Fixed Rates: 
 (iii) Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent, at the addresses specified in Section 2.5, an original or facsimile
Fixed Rate Notice no later than 9:00 A.M. (Pacific time), and not less than three (3) nor more than five (5) Business Days prior to the proposed Fixed Rate Period for each Fixed Rate Advance. Any Fixed Rate Notice pursuant to this
subsection (i) is irrevocable. 
  



 26 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 (iv) Borrower may elect (A) to convert a Variable Rate Advance to a Fixed Rate
Advance, or (B) to convert a matured Fixed Rate Advance into a new Fixed Rate Advance, provided, however, that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Advance being converted into or continued as a Fixed Rate Advance shall comply
with the Dollar amount requirements set forth in the definition of “Fixed Rate Advance.” The conversion of a matured Fixed Rate Advance back to a Variable Rate Advance or to a new Fixed Rate Advance shall occur on the last Business Day of
the Fixed Rate Period relating to such Fixed Rate Advance. Each Fixed Rate Notice shall specify (A) the amount of the Fixed Rate Advance, (B) the Fixed Rate Period, and (C) the Fixed Rate Commencement Date. 
 (v) Upon receipt of a Fixed Rate Notice in the proper form requesting a Fixed Rate Advance under subsections (i) and (ii) above,
Administrative Agent shall determine the Fixed Rate applicable to the Fixed Rate Period for such Fixed Rate Advance two (2) Business Days prior to the beginning of such Fixed Rate Period. Each determination by Administrative Agent of the Fixed
Rate shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error. Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower and each Lender (by facsimile) an acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice and
the Fixed Rate determined pursuant thereto; provided, however, that failure to provide such acknowledgment of receipt and confirmation of the Fixed Rate Notice to Borrower or any Lender shall not affect the validity of such
rate. 
 (vi) If Borrower does not make a timely election to convert all or a portion of a matured Fixed Rate Advance into a
new Fixed Rate Advance in accordance with this Section 2.6(f), such Fixed Rate Advance shall be automatically converted to a Variable Rate Advance upon the expiration of the Fixed Rate Period applicable to such Fixed Rate Advance.

 (g) Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs. Upon demand by any Lender, Borrower shall pay to such Lender, in addition to all other
amounts which may be, or become, due and payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any and all Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs applicable to such Lender in respect of any Fixed Rate Loans made by such Lender, all as certified
by such Lender in writing prior to or concurrently with such demand. Each Lender shall give Borrower notice of any Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs applicable to such Lender as soon as practicable after their occurrence, but Borrower shall be
liable for any Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory Costs regardless of whether or when notice is so given. 
 (h) Fixed Rate Price
Adjustment. Borrower acknowledges that prepayment or acceleration of a Fixed Rate Advance during a Fixed Rate Period shall result in Lenders’ incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and
impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Therefore, on the date a Fixed Rate Advance is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by acceleration or otherwise (“Price
Adjustment Date”), Borrower will pay Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender (in addition to all other sums then owing to Lenders) an amount (“Fixed Rate Price Adjustment”) equal to the then present value of
(i) the 
  



 27 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 amount of interest that would have accrued on the Fixed Rate Advance for the remainder of the Fixed Rate Period at
the Fixed Rate set on the Fixed Rate Commencement Date, less (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same Fixed Rate Advance for the same period if the Fixed Rate were set on the Price Adjustment Date at the Applicable LIBO Rate in
effect on the Price Adjustment Date. The present value shall be calculated by using as a discount rate the LIBO Rate quoted on the Price Adjustment Date. 
 By initialing this provision where indicated below, Borrower confirms that Lenders’ agreement to make Loans at the interest rates and on the other terms set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents
constitutes adequate and valuable consideration, given individual weight by Borrower, for this agreement 
 Borrower Initials.
                             
 (i) Purchase, Sale and Matching of Funds. Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (a) Lenders have no obligation to
purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of a LIBO Rate as a basis for calculating a Fixed Rate or Fixed Rate Price Adjustment; (b) a LIBO Rate is used merely as a reference in determining a Fixed Rate and Fixed Rate Price
Adjustment; and (c) Borrower has accepted a LIBO Rate as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating a Fixed Rate and a Fixed Rate Price Adjustment. Borrower further agrees to pay the Fixed Rate Price Adjustment, Fixed Rate Taxes and Regulatory
Costs, if any, whether or not any Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds. 
 2.7 PAYMENTS. 
 (a) Manner and Time of Payment. All payments of principal, interest and fees hereunder payable to Administrative Agent or Lenders shall be made
without condition or reservation of right and free of set-off or counterclaim, in Dollars and by wire transfer (pursuant to Administrative Agent’s written wire transfer instructions) of immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent, for
the account of each Lender as applicable, not later than 11:00 A.M. (Pacific time) on the date due; and funds received by Administrative Agent after that time and date shall be deemed to have been paid on the next succeeding Business Day.

 (b) Payments on Non-Business Days. Whenever any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which
is not a Business Day, payments shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest hereunder and of any fees due under this Agreement, as the case may be.

 (c) Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower may, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to
Administrative Agent in the case of a Fixed Rate Advance and upon not less than one (1) Business Day’s written notice to Administrative Agent in the case of a Variable Rate Advance, in each case not later than 11:00 A.M. (Pacific time) on
the date given, at any time and from time to time, prepay all or any portion of any Revolving Advance without penalty, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Section 2.7(c). Any notice of prepayment given to Administrative Agent
under this Section 2.7(c) shall specify the date of prepayment and the principal amount of the prepayment. Any payment of less than the entire amount of any 
  



 28 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 Revolving Advance shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. In
the event of a prepayment of any Fixed Rate Advance, Borrower shall concurrently pay any Fixed Rate Price Adjustment payable in respect thereof. 
 2.8 MATURITY DATE. All sums due and owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be repaid in full on or before the Maturity Date. 
 2.9 BORROWING BASE. If the outstanding principal balance of all Loans shall at any time exceed the Borrowing Base, Borrower shall, within thirty (30) days, repay outstanding Advances in an amount
equal to such excess and pay any Fixed Rate Price Adjustment payable by reason of such principal payment. 
 2.10 SWINGLINE
LOANS. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to Borrower from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that
will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $10,000,000 or (ii) the total Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders exceeding the Aggregate Commitment; provided that Swingline
Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the Swingline Note. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an integral multiple of $100,000 and in the minimum amount of
$1,000,000. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. 
 (b) Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on the earlier of (i) the seventh (7th) Business Day following the advance of such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Maturity Date and may be repaid in whole, but not in part, on one Business Day’s notice. 
 (c) To request a Swingline Loan, Borrower shall deliver to Swingline Lender, not later than 9:00 A.M., Pacific time on the day of the proposed Swingline
Loan, to the address designated in Section 2.5 or at such other address as Swingline Lender shall designate, an original Borrowing Notice (or facsimile thereof or “PDF” thereof transmitted by electronic mail) requesting a
Swingline Loan. Each such Borrowing Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan, which shall comply with the provisions of paragraph
(a) above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Swingline Lender is authorized to rely upon the telephone request and acceptance of Douglas Vicari, Sean Dell’Orto or Graham Wooten as Borrower’s duly authorized agents, or such other
and/or additional authorized agents as Borrower shall designate in writing to Swingline Lender. Borrower’s telephonic notices, requests and acceptance shall be directed to such officers of Swingline Lender as Swingline Lender may from time to
time designate and shall be followed promptly with the original, facsimile or electronic mail Borrowing Notice required pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.19(c). Subject to the conditions set forth in Article 3,
Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to Borrower in immediately available funds by means of a credit to an account of Borrower with Swingline Lender. 
 (d) Swingline Lender may by written notice given to Lenders not later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on any Business Day require Lenders to acquire participations on such 
  



 29 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify each Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each
Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph
by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 10.3 with respect to Loans made by such Lender. Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired
pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to Administrative Agent and not to Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by Swingline Lender from Borrower (or other party on behalf of Borrower) in
respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by
Administrative Agent to Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to Swingline Lender or to
Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve Borrower of any default in
the payment thereof. 
 2.11 TERMINATION AND REDUCTION OF COMMITMENTS. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments
shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Aggregate Commitment;
provided that (i) each reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitment if,
after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.7(c), the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Aggregate Commitment. 
 (c) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitment under paragraph (b) of this
Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, Administrative Agent shall advise Lenders
of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Aggregate Commitment delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon
the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of
the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Aggregate Commitment shall be made ratably among Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

 2.12 FACILITY INCREASE. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.12, Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, by notice to Administrative Agent,
increase the Aggregate Commitment (each such increase, a “Facility Increase”) subject to the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) each Facility Increase shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; 
 (ii) the Aggregate Commitment shall not be increased to an amount greater than the lesser of (A) the amount of the Borrowing Base (as such Borrowing Base may be increased as a result of the addition of Properties
to the Unencumbered Pool effected at the same time as such Facility Increase) and (B) $200,000,000; 
 (iii) no Facility
Increase shall be effected at any time following any reduction of the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to Section 2.11; 
 (iv) no Default or Potential Default shall exist at the time of such Facility Increase; and 
 (v) one or more
Additional Lenders shall have agreed to make Additional Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to such Facility Increase in accordance with paragraph (b) below. The Additional Commitment of any Additional Lender shall (unless otherwise
agreed by Borrower and Administrative Agent) be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. 
 (b)
Each Facility Increase shall be effected by the execution and delivery of the following documents, all reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent: 
 (i) a Facility Increase Supplement executed by Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Additional Lender; 
 (ii) a Note or Notes executed by Borrower evidencing the Facility Increase; 
 (iii) the consent of the Guarantors and ratification
of their Guaranties; 
 (iv) resolutions, consents and other documents evidencing the requisite approvals of the Facility Increase by the
applicable Loan Parties; 
 (v) opinions of counsel (substantially similar to those delivered pursuant to Section 3.1) with
respect to the foregoing documents; and 
 (vi) such other documents and instruments as Administrative Agent shall reasonably
request. 
 (c) On the effective date of any Facility Increase (the “Increase Date”), which date shall be mutually agreed
upon by Borrower, Administrative Agent and each Additional Lender, 
  

 31 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 Borrower shall repay in full all outstanding Loans (together with any Fixed Rate Price Adjustments relating thereto),
which repayment may be made in whole or in part from a Revolving Advance made as of the Increase Date consisting of Revolving Loans made by Lenders (including each Additional Lender) in the proportion of their respective Commitments (as increased as
of such Increase Date). 
 (d) Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment or agreement on the part
of any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time or a commitment or agreement on the part of Borrower or Administrative Agent to give or grant any Lender the right to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time. 
 2.13 LENDERS’ ACCOUNTING. Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books in
which shall be recorded (a) the names and addresses and the Pro Rata Shares of the commitment of each of the Lenders, and principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender from time to time, and (b) all repayments of principal and
payments of accrued interest, as well as payments of fees required to be paid pursuant to this Agreement. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Administrative Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from
time to time. Monthly or at such other interval as is customary with Administrative Agent’s practice, Administrative Agent will render a statement of the Loan Account to Borrower and will deliver a copy thereof to each Lender. Each such
statement shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein (absent manifest error). 
 2.14 OPTION TO EXTEND. Borrower shall have the option to extend (“Option to Extend”) the Maturity Date from the Original Maturity Date to the Extended Maturity Date, upon satisfaction of each of the following
conditions precedent: 
 (a) Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with written notice of Borrower’s request to exercise the
Option to Extend not more than ninety (90) days but not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Original Maturity Date; 
 (b) As
of the date of Borrower’s delivery of notice of request to exercise the Option to Extend, and as of the Original Maturity Date, no Default or Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall so certify in writing;

 (c) Borrower shall execute or cause the execution of all documents as reasonably required by Administrative Agent to exercise the Option
to Extend; 
 (d) On or before the Original Maturity Date, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders in their
Pro Rata Shares thereof, an extension fee in the amount of 0.20% of the Aggregate Commitment; 
 (e) As of the last day of the fiscal quarter
preceding the Original Maturity Date, the New Property Ratio shall not exceed 40%; 
 (f) No Material Adverse Change shall have occurred;




 32 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 (g) All of Borrower’s representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be true
and correct in all material respects as of the Original Maturity Date, and Borrower shall so certify in writing; and 
 (h) Borrower shall
pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses related to the exercise of the Option to Extend. 
 Except as modified by the Option to
Extend, the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect. 
 2.15
MAXIMUM INTEREST RATE. 
 As used herein, the term “Maximum Interest Rate” shall mean and refer to the maximum rate
of nonusurious interest, if any, that Lenders may from time to time charge Borrower and in regard to which Borrower would be prevented successfully from raising the claim or defense of usury under applicable Requirements of Law as now, or to the
extent permitted by Law, as may hereafter be, in effect (said Requirements of Law permitting the highest rate being herein referred to as the “Interest Law”). It is the intention of Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders to
conform strictly to the Interest Law applicable to this loan transaction. Accordingly, it is agreed that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement, the Notes or in any other Loan Document or in any instrument otherwise relating
thereto, the aggregate of all interest and any other charges or consideration constituting interest under applicable Interest Law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement, or under any of the aforesaid
agreements or otherwise on or in connection with the Loans shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law applicable to this loan transaction or the Notes. If any usurious interest in such respect is
provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided for, in this Agreement, in the Notes or in any of the other Loan Documents or other instruments otherwise relating thereto, or if the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes or if any
prepayment by Borrower results in Borrower having paid any interest in excess of that permitted by applicable Law, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall govern and control, (b) neither Borrower nor
Borrower’s successors or assigns or any other party liable for the payment of the Notes shall be obligated to pay the amount of such interest to the extent that it is in excess of the maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law
applicable to this loan transaction, (c) any excess shall be deemed a mistake and canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be refunded to Borrower and (d) the effective rate of interest shall be automatically subject to
reduction to the Maximum Interest Rate allowed under such Interest Law as now or hereafter construed by courts of appropriate jurisdiction. All sums paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders for the use, forbearance, or detention of the indebtedness
shall, to the extent permitted by the Interest Law applicable to this loan transaction, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of said indebtedness until paid in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account
of said indebtedness does not exceed the applicable usury ceiling. The right to accelerate the maturity of the indebtedness does not include the right to accelerate any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such acceleration, and
Lenders do not intend to collect unearned interest in the event of acceleration. Notwithstanding any provision contained in the Notes, this Agreement or any other Loan Document that permits the compounding of interest, including 
  



 33 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 without limitation any provision by which any of the accrued interest is added to the principal amount of the Notes,
the total amount of interest that Borrower is obligated to pay and Lenders are entitled to receive with respect to the Notes shall not exceed the Maximum Interest Rate on principal amounts actually advanced to or for the account of Borrower,
including the initial advance under the Notes and any advances made pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document (such as for the principal amount of the Loans or the payment of taxes, insurance premiums, and the like).

 In consideration of the agreement of Lenders to advance sums hereunder, Borrower has agreed to pay to Lenders certain loan fees
(collectively, the “Fees”). Also, in order to reimburse Lenders for certain costs that Lenders may incur in the event of late payment or in the event the Loans are prepaid, Borrower has agreed to pay Lenders the late payment charge
and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. At the time the Notes are paid in full, or the payment thereof matures, howsoever said payment or maturity shall have been brought about, in no event shall the total of
said Fees, late payment charges and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment (but only to the extent said Fees, late payment charges and Fixed Rate Price Adjustment are interest under the Interest Law applicable to this loan transaction) and all interest and any
other charges or consideration constituting interest under applicable Interest Law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received under the Notes or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction (said total being hereinafter
referred to as the “Charges”) exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by the Interest Law applicable to this loan transaction, (a) the provisions of this Section 2.15 shall govern and control, (b) neither
Borrower nor Borrower’s successors or assigns or any other party liable for the payment thereof shall be obligated to pay the amount of such excess, and (c) any such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall be
returned to Borrower. 
 ARTICLE 3. DISBURSEMENT OF LOAN 
 3.1 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO INITIAL ADVANCE. Lenders’ obligation to disburse the Initial Advance shall be subject to satisfaction of each of the following conditions precedent: 
 (a) Administrative Agent shall have received all of the Loan Documents, the Other Related Documents and all other documents, instruments, policies, and
forms of evidence or other materials required by Administrative Agent under the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, all in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. 
 (b) In Administrative Agent’s reasonable opinion, there has been no Material Adverse Change. 
 (c) Borrower shall have provided, at Borrower’s expense, an opinion of legal counsel in form and content satisfactory to Administrative Agent:
(i) to the effect that (A) upon due authorization, execution and recordation or filing as may be specified in the opinion, each of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents shall be valid and binding instruments, 
  

 34 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 enforceable against the Loan Parties party thereto in accordance with their respective terms; (B) the Loan
Parties are duly formed and have all requisite authority to enter into the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents; and (ii) addressing such other matters, incident to the transactions contemplated hereby, as Administrative Agent may
reasonably request. 
 (d) Borrower shall have furnished to Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate and Compliance Certificate,
each prepared as of December 31, 2005, and properly completed to provide all information required to be included thereon or attached thereto. 
 (e) All amounts outstanding under the Prior Loan Agreement shall have been paid or concurrently on the Effective Date will be paid in full, from the proceeds of the Initial Advance or otherwise, and the Liens securing the obligations under
the Prior Loan Agreement shall have been released. 
 (f) Borrower and Guarantors shall have satisfied such other conditions as
Administrative Agent shall reasonably require. 
 3.2 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO ALL ADVANCES. Lenders’ obligations to
disburse any Advance (including the Initial Advance) shall be subject to (in addition to any other conditions specified in the Agreement) the satisfaction of each of the following conditions: 
 (a) Borrower shall have executed and delivered a Borrowing Notice in accordance with Section 2.5 (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan, a
request for a Swingline Loan in accordance with Section 2.10(c)). 
 (b) There shall be no Default or Potential Default under
this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents. 
 (c) All representations and warranties of Borrower and Guarantors under the Loan
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects. 
 (d) Upon the making of such Advance, the outstanding principal balance of
the Loans will not exceed the Borrowing Base. 
 3.3 FUNDS TRANSFER DISBURSEMENTS. Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative
Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of Borrower to any of the accounts designated in Exhibit K identified in writing by such authorized
representative. Borrower agrees to be bound by any transfer request: (a) authorized or transmitted by Borrower or (b) made in Borrower’s name and accepted by Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer
instructions by a Person designated in writing by Borrower to make such transfer request, even if not properly authorized by Borrower. Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or
identifying bank account number or name provided by Borrower to effect a wire or funds transfer even if the information provided by Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by Borrower. Administrative Agent is not obligated
or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided by Borrower. If Administrative Agent 
  

 35 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission or content of transfer, requests or takes any
actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized funds transfer requests, Borrower agrees that no matter how many times Administrative Agent takes these actions Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable for failing to take or correctly
perform these actions in the future and such actions shall not become any part of the transfer disbursement procedures authorized under this provision, the Loan Documents, or any agreement between Administrative Agent and Borrower. Borrower agrees
to notify Administrative Agent of any errors in the transfer of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized transfer requests within fourteen (14) days after Administrative Agent’s confirmation to Borrower of such transfer.
Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion, determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would:
(a) violate the terms of this authorization (b) require use of a bank unacceptable to Administrative Agent or prohibited by government authority; (c) cause Administrative Agent to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk
control program or guideline, or (d) otherwise cause Administrative Agent to violate any applicable law or regulation. Administrative Agent shall not be liable to Borrower or any other parties for (a) errors, acts or failures to act of
others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of Administrative Agent,
(b) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances, power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events beyond Administrative
Agent’s control, or (c) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (i) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (ii) Administrative Agent or Borrower knew or should have known the
likelihood of these damages in any situation. Administrative Agent makes no representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 4. 
 4.1 ADDITION OF PROPERTIES. In the event that Borrower, Parent or any of
their Subsidiaries or Unconsolidated Affiliates (as the case may be), shall acquire a Hotel (or Equity Interests in a Person that owns a Hotel), Borrower shall (i) promptly notify Administrative Agent, and (ii) promptly furnish to
Administrative Agent such financial and other information as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request relating to such Hotel (including Borrower’s certification of the Property Investment of such Hotel), except, in the case of an
Unconsolidated Affiliate, Borrower shall furnish such information to the extent available, and will certify only that such information is a true and accurate copy of that information received by Borrower. Such Hotel shall constitute a New Property
and shall have as its Seasoned Date the last day of the fourth calendar quarter following the date on which such Property or Equity Interests were acquired, unless Administrative Agent, in its discretion and at Borrower’s request, designates a
later Seasoned Date. Such Property may be included in the Unencumbered Pool only in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.2. 
  

 36 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 4.2 DESIGNATION OF POOL PROPERTIES. 
 (a) Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, by written notice to Administrative Agent, request the inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool of a Hotel
owned, or to be acquired by, Borrower, Parent or a Wholly-Owned Guarantor or by a Person that will become a Wholly-Owed Guarantor and that otherwise satisfies the criteria for inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool. Not later than thirty (30) days
after such notice, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent: (i) a physical description of such Hotel, including its age, location, condition, number of guest rooms, parking facilities, and amenities; (ii) operating statements for
such Hotel for the prior two calendar years, the immediately-preceding trailing twelve months and the calendar year-to-date (in each case to the extent that the Hotel has been operating during such period); (iii) cash flow projections and (to
the extent then available) a capital expenditure plan for the remainder of the current calendar year and the next three calendar years; (iv) the most recent Smith Travel Research STAR Report comparing such Hotel to its competitive set;
(v) any Ground Lease applicable to such Hotel; (vi) the Management Agreement and Franchise Agreement for such Hotel; and (vii) a property condition report, Environmental Assessment and title insurance policy (or irrevocable commitment
to issue such a policy) for such Hotel (in each case dated not more than two (2) years prior to Borrower’s notice to Administrative Agent), together with a certificate of Borrower that, to Borrower’s knowledge, there exist no facts or
circumstances with respect to such Property (within the intended scope of such physical condition report, Environmental Assessment or title insurance policy (or irrevocable commitment)) as of the date of such certificate, whether arising prior or
subsequent to the date of such report, Environmental Assessment or title insurance policy (or irrevocable commitment), that are material but are not disclosed therein. 
 (b) If such Hotel satisfies all of the criteria for inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool and the Requisite Lenders approve in writing the inclusion thereof in the Unencumbered Pool, Borrower and Administrative Agent
shall promptly enter into a supplement to this Agreement (the “Unencumbered Pool Supplement”) substantially in the form attached hereto and hereby made a part hereof as Exhibit L, confirming the inclusion of such Hotel in the
Unencumbered Pool and identifying the Major Agreements for such Hotel. If such Hotel is not yet wholly owned by Borrower, Parent or a Wholly-Owned Guarantor, such Hotel shall be included in the Unencumbered Pool only at such time as it is wholly
owned by Borrower, Parent or a Wholly-Owned Guarantor and otherwise satisfies all of the criteria for inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool and shall constitute a New Property having a Seasoned Date as described in clause (b)(i) of the
definition of “Seasoned Date.” If such Property was owned by Borrower, Parent or a Subsidiary prior to the date on which approved for inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool, it shall retain the same classification as a New Property or Seasoned
Property (as applicable) as it had immediately prior to its inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool; if it remains a New Property, it shall have the same Seasoned Date as it had immediately prior to its inclusion in the Unencumbered Pool, unless the
Required Lenders agree to a later Seasoned Date in the Unencumbered Pool Certificate. 
 4.3 REMOVAL OF POOL PROPERTIES.

 (a) Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent promptly upon the occurrence of any of the following events or circumstances (each such
event or circumstance, a “Removal Event”) or, if Borrower knows in advance thereof that such Removal Event is likely to occur, promptly 
  

 37 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 following the date on which Borrower attains such knowledge (except that Borrower shall not be required to give such

Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with those granted by law or at equity, are cumulative and may be exercised by Administrative Agent and Lenders at any time and from

 ARTICLE 10. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS 
 10.1 APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION. 
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably
appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents as are specifically
delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan
Documents and Other Related Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. 
 (b) Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as
otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders (or, where this Agreement so specifies, the Majority Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, and the
exercise by the Requisite Lenders (or, where this Agreement so specifies, the Majority Lenders) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all
of the Lenders. 
  

 61 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 (c) Nothing herein shall be construed to deem Administrative Agent a trustee or
fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Administrative Agent”,
“Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents 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 Requirements of Law. Instead, use of such terms is merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
 (d) Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, copies of each of the
financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 8. Administrative Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy (or, where appropriate, an
original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to Administrative Agent by Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to
such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. 
 (e) As to any matters not expressly
provided for by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of Borrower’s obligations hereunder), Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take
any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other
provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the obligations of Borrower; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Requirements of Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing,
Administrative Agent shall exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Potential Default or Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed Administrative Agent otherwise. Without
limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or the Other Related
Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders. 
 10.2 WELLS FARGO AS
LENDER. Wells Fargo, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent; and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Wells Fargo and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances
for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and
without any duty to 
  

 62 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other
consideration from Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its affiliates may
receive information regarding Borrower, other Loan Parties, other subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that Administrative Agent shall be
under no obligation to provide such information to them. 
 10.3 LOAN DISBURSEMENTS. 
 (a) Each Lender shall make available to Administrative Agent (or the funding bank or entity designated by Administrative Agent), the
amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement in immediately available funds not later than the times designated in Section 10.3(b). Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender not later than the
close of business (Pacific time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Borrowing Date in respect of any disbursement that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such
disbursement, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Administrative Agent. If any Lender does not notify Administrative Agent of its intention not to make available its Pro Rata Share of such
disbursement as described above, but does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, such Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount, together with
interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate. In any case where a Lender does not for any reason make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement, Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but
shall not be obligated to, fund to Borrower such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. If Administrative Agent funds to Borrower such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement and if such Lender subsequently pays to
Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such disbursement. Nothing in this Section 10.3(a) shall alter the respective rights and obligations of the parties
hereunder in respect of a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Pro Rata Advance. 
 (b) Requests by Administrative Agent for funding by
Lenders of disbursements will be made by telecopy. Each Lender shall make the amount of its disbursement available to Administrative Agent in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to such bank and account, in El Segundo, California (or to such
bank and account in such other place) as Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 9:00 A.M. (Pacific time) on the Borrowing Date designated by Administrative Agent with respect to such disbursement, but in no event earlier than two
(2) Business Days following Lender’s receipt of the applicable request for disbursement of a Fixed Rate Loan or one (1) Business Day following Lender’s receipt of the applicable request for disbursement of a Variable Rate Loan.

 (c) Nothing in this Section 10.3 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its
Pro Rata Share of disbursements on any Borrowing Date, nor shall Administrative Agent or any Lender be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to 
  

 63 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 perform its obligations to make any disbursement hereunder, and the Commitment of any Lender shall
not be increased or decreased as a result of the failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make a disbursement. 
 10.4
DISTRIBUTION AND APPORTIONMENT OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS. 
 (a) Subject to Section 10.4(b)
below, payments actually received by Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall be paid to them promptly after receipt thereof by Administrative Agent, but in any event within one (1) Business Day, provided that Administrative Agent
shall pay to Lenders interest thereon, at the lesser of (i) the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) the rate of interest applicable to the Loan, from the Business Day following receipt of such funds by Administrative Agent until such funds are
paid in immediately available funds to Lenders. All payments of principal, interest, and other payments under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be allocated among such of Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their
respective Pro Rata Shares in the Revolving Loans or otherwise as provided herein or as separately agreed by Administrative Agent and any Lender, provided, however, that all payments in respect of Swingline Loans shall be paid to the
Swingline Lender. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute, but in any event within one (1) Business Day, to each Lender at its primary address set forth on the appropriate signature page hereof or on the Assignment and Assumption
Agreement or Facility Increase Supplement, or at such other address as a Lender may request in writing, such funds as it may be entitled to receive, provided that Administrative Agent shall in any event not be bound to inquire into or determine the
validity, scope or priority of any interest or entitlement of any Lender and may suspend all payments and seek appropriate relief (including, without limitation, instructions from Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable, or an action in the
nature of interpleader) in the event of any doubt or dispute as to any apportionment or distribution contemplated hereby. The order of priority herein is set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of Lenders as among themselves and may
at any time or from time to time be changed by Lenders as they may elect, in writing in accordance with this Agreement, without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower or any other Person. All payments or other sums received by
Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders shall not constitute property or assets of Administrative Agent and shall be held by Administrative Agent, solely in its capacity as agent for itself and the other Lenders, subject to the Loan
Documents and the Other Related Documents. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, until such time as a
Defaulting Lender has funded its Pro Rata Share of each prior Revolving Loan disbursement which was previously a Non-Pro Rata Advance, or all other applicable Lenders have received payment in full (whether by repayment or prepayment) of the amounts
due in respect of such Non-Pro Rata Advance, all of the indebtedness and obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be subordinated in right of payment, as provided in the following sentence, to the prior payment in full of all
principal, interest and fees in respect of all Non-Pro Rata Advances in which the Defaulting Lender has not funded its Pro Rata Share (such principal, interest and fees being referred to as “Senior Loans”). All amounts paid by
Borrower and otherwise due to be applied to the indebtedness and obligations owing to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms 
  

 64 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 hereof shall be distributed by Administrative Agent to the other Lenders in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares (recalculated for purposes hereof to exclude the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share), until all Senior Loans have been paid in full. This provision governs only the relationship among Administrative Agent, each
Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders; nothing hereunder shall limit the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement. The provisions of this section shall apply and be effective regardless of whether a Default occurs and is then continuing, and
notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments or (iii) the suspension of such Defaulting Lender’s right to vote on matters
which are subject to the consent or approval of Requisite Lenders or all Lenders. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to (A) withhold or setoff, and to apply to the payment of the defaulted amount and any related interest, any amounts to be
paid to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, and (B) bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. In addition, the Defaulting
Lender shall indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities and costs, plus interest thereon at the Alternate Rate, which they may sustain or incur by reason of or as a
direct consequence of the Defaulting Lender’s failure or refusal to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 
 10.5 PRO RATA
TREATMENT. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing of Revolving Loans from Lenders shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or
reduction of the amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Agreement shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (b) each payment or prepayment of principal
of any Revolving Loan by Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Revolving Loan held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such
payment in respect of any Revolving Loan the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loan shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loan was made, then such
payment shall be applied to such Revolving Loan in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective
Commitments; and (c) each payment of interest on the Revolving Loans by Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loan then due and payable to the respective
Lenders. 
 10.6 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC. Lenders agree among themselves that (i) with respect to all amounts received by
them which are applicable to the payment of the obligations of Borrower or Guarantor under the Revolving Loans, equitable adjustment will be made so that, in effect, all such amounts will be shared among them ratably in accordance with their Pro
Rata Shares in the Revolving Loans, whether received by voluntary payment, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any or all of such obligations, (ii) if any of them shall by voluntary payment or by the exercise of any right
of counterclaim or otherwise, receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such obligations held by it which is greater than its Pro Rata Share in the Revolving Loans of the payments on account of such 
  

 65 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 obligations, the one receiving such excess payment shall purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided
interest and participation (which it shall be deemed to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such payment) in such obligations owed to the others so that all such recoveries with respect to such obligations shall be applied ratably in
accordance with such Pro Rata Shares; provided, that if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations
shall be returned to that party to the extent necessary to adjust for such recovery, but without interest except to the extent the purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with such recovery. Borrower agrees that any Lender so
purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 10.6 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender held such interest
as a direct lender rather than as a participant. 
 10.7 APPROVALS OF LENDERS. All communications from Administrative Agent to
any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such
determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall
include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to Administrative Agent by Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be
resolved, and (d) shall include Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation
or determination of Administrative Agent (together with a reasonable written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express
terms of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination. 
 10.8 NOTICE OF DEFAULTS. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Potential
Default unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Potential Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.
If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Potential Default, it shall promptly send to Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”. Further, if Administrative
Agent receives such a “notice of default,” Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 
 10.9
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S RELIANCE, ETC. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents, neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents,
employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties
expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of 
  

 66 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 the foregoing, Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for
Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or
experts. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for
any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the
performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of Borrower or other Persons or
inspect the property, books or records of Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related
Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; or (e) shall incur any liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice,
consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties
under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross
negligence or willful misconduct. 
 10.10 INDEMNIFICATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Regardless of whether the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to
do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or Other
Related Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided,
however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
non-appealable judgment provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket
expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to 
  

 67 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 Administrative Agent) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution,
administration, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents, any suit or
action brought by Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents and/or collect any obligation of Borrower hereunder, any “Lender liability” suit or claim brought against Administrative Agent
and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Hazardous Materials Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of
Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is
actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If Borrower shall reimburse Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to Administrative Agent in respect of such
Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment. 
 10.11 LENDER CREDIT DECISION, ETC. Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or
other affiliates has made any representations or warranties to such Lender and that no act by Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower, any other Loan Party or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any
such representation or warranty by Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent, or any of their
respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of Borrower, the other Loan Parties or Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of
Borrower, the other Loan Parties and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon
Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents. Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrower or any other
Loan Party of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any other investigation of, Borrower, any other Loan Party. Except for notices,
reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, Administrative Agent shall have no duty or
responsibility to provide 
  

 68 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other
condition or creditworthiness of Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each
Lender acknowledges that Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender. 
 10.12 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and
Other Related Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrower. In addition, the Lenders (other than the Adminstrative), acting unanimously, may remove Administrative Agent in the event that Administrative Agent commits gross
negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of its duties thereunder. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default
or Potential Default exists, be subject to Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender and any of its Affiliates as a
successor Administrative Agent). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current
Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and
otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents. After any Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder or removal as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 10 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents and the Other Related Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents and the Other Related Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving
Borrower and each Lender prior written notice. 
 10.13 TITLED AGENTS. Each Lender designated as a Documentation Agent assumes
no responsibility or obligation hereunder in its capacity as Documentation Agent, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The title given to the
Documentation Agent is solely honorific and implies no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Documentation Agent to Administrative Agent, any Lender, Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the
Documentation Agent any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Documentation Agent to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

 11.5 SETOFF. Subject to Section 10.6 and in addition to any rights now or
hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Participant is hereby authorized by Borrower, at any time or from time to time while a Default exists, without notice
to Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender or a Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of Administrative Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and
to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any indebtedness at any time held or owing by Administrative
Agent, such Lender or any affiliate of Administrative Agent or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of Borrower against and on account of any of the Loans or other obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether
or not any or all of the Loans and all other obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 9.2, and although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. 
 11.6 ACTIONS. Borrower agrees that Administrative Agent or any Lender, in exercising the rights, duties or liabilities of Administrative
Agent, Lenders or Borrower under the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, may commence, appear in or defend any action or proceeding purporting to affect any Property, the Loan Documents or the Other Related Documents and Borrower shall
promptly reimburse Administrative Agent or such Lender upon demand for all such reasonable expenses so incurred or paid by Administrative Agent or such Lender, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court
costs.

be liable in any way to Borrower or any third party for Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to perform or delay in performing under the Loan Documents (and Administrative Agent or any Lender may suspend or terminate all or any
portion of Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents) if such failure to perform or delay in performing results directly or indirectly from, or is based upon, the action, inaction, or purported action, of
any governmental or local authority, or because of war, rebellion, insurrection, strike, lock-out, boycott or blockade (whether presently in effect, announced or in the sole judgment of Administrative Agent or such Lender deemed probable), or from
any act of God or other cause or event beyond Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s reasonable control (specifically excluding, however, the lack of available funds).

without the filing of any legal action or proceeding, and including, without limitation, any reasonable fees and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy proceeding of Borrower, then Borrower shall promptly pay to Administrative Agent or such Lender,

limitation Section 11.12(b)), (i) any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or in any Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document
(other than any fee letter solely between Borrower and Administrative Agent) may be amended, (iii) the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document (other than any fee
letter solely between Borrower and Administrative Agent) may be waived, and (iv) the continuance of any Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the

Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Administrative Agent, shall be authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to, or further consent from, any Lender, to waive the imposition of the late fees provided in
Section 2.6(c), up to a maximum of three times per calendar year.

 (i) increase the Commitments of the Lenders (excluding any increase as a result of an assignment of Commitments permitted under
Section 11.13) or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations (except, in each case, for any Additional Commitment of a Lender pursuant to a Facility Increase Supplement);

 72

change in fees payable to Administrative Agent for its own account shall not require the consent of any Lender other than Administrative Agent); 
 (iv) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan (including, without limitation, the Maturity Date) or for the payment of fees or any other obligations of Borrower or any
Guarantor;

 (vi) amend this Section or amend the definitions of the
terms used in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section;

 Loan No. 102919 
  

 11.13 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. 
 (a) Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (and any such assignment or transfer to which all of the Lenders have not
consented shall be void). 
 (b) Participations. Any Lender may at any time grant to an Affiliate of such Lender, or one or more banks
or other financial institutions (each a “Participant” ) participating interests in its Commitment or the obligations owing to such Lender hereunder. No Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of it obligations hereunder, and Borrower and Administrative Agent shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall
retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided however,
such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal on any Loan or a portion
thereof owing to such Lender, or (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the
extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b). 
 (c) Assignments. Any Lender may with the prior
written consent of Administrative Agent and Borrower (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld) at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Notes; provided, however, (i) no such consent by Borrower shall be required (x) if a Default or Potential Default shall exist or (y) in the case of an assignment to another Lender or an
Affiliate of any Lender; (ii) any partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $10,000,000 and after giving effect to such assignment the assigning Lender retains a Commitment, or if the Commitments have been terminated, holds a
Note having an outstanding principal balance, of at least $10,000,000, and (iii) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such
Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations
of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be
required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so the new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender,
as appropriate. In connection with any such 
  

 74 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such
assignment in the amount of $3,500. Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to Borrower, or any of its respective Subsidiaries. 
 (d) Tax Withholding. At least five (5) Business Days prior to the first day on which interest or fees are payable hereunder for the account
of any Lender, each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America, or a state thereof, shall furnish Administrative Agent and Borrower with a properly completed executed copy of either Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN and either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) as is necessary to claim complete exemption from United States withholding
taxes on all payments hereunder. At all times each Lender shall own or beneficially own a Note, such Lender shall (i) promptly provide to Administrative Agent and Borrower a new Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN and Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 or Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and any additional form (or such other form) (or any successor form or forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form and comparable
statements in accordance with applicable United States laws and regulations and amendments duly executed and completed by such Lender, and (ii) comply at all times with all applicable United States laws and regulations, including all provisions
of any applicable tax treaty, with regard to any withholding tax exemption claimed with respect to any payments on any Loan. If any Lender cannot deliver such form, then Borrower may withhold from payments due under the Loan Documents such amounts
as Borrower is able to determine from accurate information provided by such Lender are required by the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (e)
Federal Reserve Bank Assignments. In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of the Section, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Section, any
Lender may at any time and from time to time, pledge and assign all or any portion of its rights under all or any of the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge of assignment shall release
such Lender from its obligation thereunder. 
 (f) Information to Assignee, Etc. A Lender may furnish any information concerning
Borrower or any other Loan Party in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants but shall advise them that any such information that is not publicly available is
confidential). In connection with such negotiation, execution and delivery, Borrower authorizes Administrative Agent and Lenders to communicate all information and documentation related to the Loan (whether to Borrower or to any Participant,
Assignee, legal counsel, appraiser or other necessary party) directly by e-mail, fax, or other electronic means used to transmit information. 
 11.14 CERTAIN ALLOWED DISCLOSURES. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other written or oral understanding or agreement to which the parties hereto are parties or by which they are bound, the
parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) any obligations of confidentiality contained herein and therein do not apply and have not 
  

 75 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 applied from the commencement of discussions between the parties to the tax treatment and tax structure of the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents (and any related transactions or arrangements), and (ii) each party (and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to any and all parties as
required, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are
provided to such party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, all within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.6011-4; provided, however, that each party recognizes that the privilege each has to maintain, in its sole
discretion, the confidentiality of a communication relating to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and Other Related Documents, including a confidential communication with its attorney or a confidential communication with a federally
authorized tax practitioner under Section 7525 of the Internal Revenue Code, is not intended to be affected by the foregoing. 
 11.15
CAPITAL ADEQUACY. 
 (a) Borrower’s Obligation to Pay. If any Lender or any Participant or Assignee in any Loan
determines that compliance with any law or regulation or with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental agency (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to
be maintained by such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee, or any corporation controlling such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s, such Participant’s or such
Assignee’s or such corporation’s commitments or its making or maintaining advances below the rate which such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee or such corporation controlling such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee could
have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account the policies of such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee or corporation with regard to capital), then (without duplication of any other obligation of Borrower under the Loan Documents)
Borrower shall, from time to time, within thirty (30) calendar days after written demand by such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee, pay to such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender, such Participant or such Assignee or such corporation controlling such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee to the extent that such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee in good faith determines such increase in capital is allocable
to such Lender’s, such Participant’s or such Assignee’s obligations to Borrower hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts, submitted to Borrower by such Lender, such Participant or such Assignee, shall be conclusive and binding for
all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) Replacement of Lender. If any Lender or any Participant or Assignee requests compensation
under Section 11.15(a) that is not requested by other Lenders, Participants or Assignees, then, provided no Default has occurred that is continuing, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Lender or
Assignee (or the Lender that has entered into the Participation Agreement with such Participant) and to Administrative Agent (i) require the Lender or Assignee requesting such compensation to assign and delegate, without recourse, in accordance
with and subject to the limitations contained in Section 11.13(c) (except that either Borrower or the Eligible Assignee to which such assignment shall be made shall pay the fee provided for therein) its rights and obligations hereunder
to an Eligible Assignee 
  

 76 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 approved by Borrower and Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) that shall assume
such rights and obligations and shall pay (or cause to be paid) to such Lender or Assignee the outstanding principal amount of the Loans then held by it hereunder and all other obligations owing to it under the Loan Documents or (ii) in the
case of a Participant requesting such compensation, require the Participant to assign and delegate (without recourse) its rights and obligations under its participant agreement to a replacement Participant approved by the Lender party to such
participation agreement, which replacement Participant shall assume such rights and obligations and shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the assigning Participant the outstanding principal amount of its participation interest in the Loans and all
other obligations owing to it by reason of such participation interest. A Lender or Assignee or Participant shall not be required to make such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, such Lender, Participant or Assignee shall waive its claim
for the compensation theretofore claimed under Section 11.15(a). 
 11.16 LENDER’S AGENTS. Administrative
Agent and/or any Lender may designate an agent or independent contractor to exercise any of such Person’s rights under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents. Any reference to Administrative Agent or any
Lender in any of the Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall include Administrative Agent’s and such Lender’s agents, employees or independent contractors. Borrower shall pay the costs of such agent or independent contractor either
directly to such person or to Administrative Agent or such Lender in reimbursement of such costs, as applicable, in accordance with Section 7.1. 
 11.17 INTENTIONALLY OMITTED. 
 11.18 WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH
PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (a) ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR OTHER RELATED DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE MODIFICATION THEREOF OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR OTHER RELATED DOCUMENTS (AS NOW OR
HEREAFTER MODIFIED) OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION IS NOW EXISTING OR
HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS 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 PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF ANY RIGHT THEY MIGHT OTHERWISE HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
 11.19 SEVERABILITY.
If any provision or obligation under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents shall be determined by a court of competent 
  

 77 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents
and the Other Related Documents and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been a part of the Loan
Documents or Other Related Documents, provided, however, any amount payable under the Notes or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the right of collectibility therefor, are declared to be or become invalid, illegal or
unenforceable (other than as addressed in Section 2.15), Lenders’ obligations to make advances under the Loan Documents shall not be enforceable by Borrower. 
 11.20 TIME. Time is of the essence of each and every term of this Agreement. 
 11.21 HEADINGS. All article, section or other headings appearing in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents
are for convenience of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents and Other Related Documents. 
 11.22 GOVERNING LAW; CHOICE OF FORUM; SERVICE OF PROCESS. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with and shall be governed by the laws of the District of Columbia except to the
extent preempted by United States federal law. Administrative Agent or Lenders may bring any action or proceeding to enforce or arising out of this Agreement in any court of competent jurisdiction. If Administrative Agent or Lenders commence such an
action in a court located in the District of Columbia, or the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, Borrower hereby agrees that it will submit and does hereby irrevocably submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and
will not attempt to have such action dismissed, abated, or transferred on the ground of forum non conveniens or similar grounds; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prohibit Borrower from seeking, by
appropriate motion, to remove an action brought in a District of Columbia court to the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. If such action is so removed, however, Borrower shall not seek to transfer to any other district any
action which Administrative Agent or Lenders originally commence in such federal court. Any action or proceeding brought by Borrower arising out of this Agreement shall be brought solely in a court of competent jurisdiction located in the District
of Columbia or in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia. 
 Borrower agrees that a summons and complaint or
equivalent documents commencing an action or proceeding in any court shall be validly and properly served and shall confer personal jurisdiction over Borrower if served to Corporation Service Company, 1090 Vermont Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20005 or
Carol Weld King, Esq., Hogan & Hartson L.L.P., 555 Thirteenth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20004, each of whom Borrower hereby designates and appoints as Borrower’s authorized agent to accept and acknowledge on its behalf service of any
and all process which may be served in such action or proceeding in any such court. Borrower shall be sent, by certified mail to Borrower’s notice address as provided herein, a copy of such summons and complaint at the time of service upon
either of such agents; provided, however, that any such copy shall be sent solely as a courtesy to Borrower and its failure to receive such copy shall in no way affect the validity and propriety of the service made on Borrower through such agent.
Borrower waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to venue of any such action 
  

 78 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 or proceeding and waives any right to seek removal of any action or proceeding commenced in accordance herewith.
Borrower agrees that if it desires to make any change in its agents for service, such change shall be subject to Administrative Agent’s written approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 11.23 USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE; COMPLIANCE. The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect
thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution. Consequently, Administrative Agent may
from time to time request, and Borrower shall provide to Administrative Agent, Borrower’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for Administrative Agent or any Lender to
comply with federal law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other
financial services product. 
 11.24 INTEGRATION; INTERPRETATION. The Loan Documents and Other Related Documents contain or
expressly incorporate by reference the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the matters contemplated therein and supersede all prior negotiations or agreements, written or oral, including without limitation any application, term sheet or
commitment letter. The Loan Documents shall not be modified except by written instrument executed by all parties (except to the extent that this Agreement provides that the same may be modified by less than all of the Lenders). Any reference to the
Loan Documents or Other Related Documents includes any amendments, renewals or extensions now or hereafter approved by Administrative Agent (or, to the extent this Agreement provides that the same require approval of the Majority Lenders, Requisite
Lenders or all Lenders, by the Majority Lenders, Requisite Lenders or all Lenders (as applicable)) in writing. 
 11.25
COUNTERPARTS. To facilitate execution, this document may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all
persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart
containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto. Any signature page to any counterpart may be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the signatures thereon and thereafter attached to
another counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature pages. 
 11.26 ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT
DELIVERIES. Documents required to be delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be delivered by electronic communication and delivery, including the internet, e-mail or intranet websites to which Administrative Agent and each Lender have
access (including a commercial, third-party website such as www.Edgar.com <http://www.Edgar.com> or a website sponsored or hosted by Administrative Agent or Borrower) provided that (A) the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any
Lender pursuant to Article 2 and (B) Lender has not notified Administrative Agent or Borrower that it cannot or does not want to receive electronic communications. Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in 
  

 79 









 Loan No. 102919 
  

 its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic delivery pursuant to
procedures approved by it for all or particulate notices or communications. Documents or notices delivered pursuant to procedures electronically shall be deemed to have been delivered twenty-four (24) hours after the date and time on which
Administrative Agent or Borrower posts such documents or the documents become available on a commercial website and Administrative Agent or Borrower notifies each Lender of said posting and provides a link thereto, provided if such notice or other
communication is not sent or posted during the normal business hours of the recipient, said posting date and time shall be deemed to have commenced as of 9:00 A.M. on the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance Borrower shall be required to provide paper copies of the certificate required by Sections 8.2 and 8.3 to Administrative Agent and shall deliver paper copies of any documents
to Administrative Agent or to any Lender that requests such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by Administrative Agent or such Lender. Except for the certificates required by Sections 8.2 and
8.3, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery of or to maintain paper copies of the documents delivered electronically, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by Borrower with any such
request for delivery. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery to it of paper copies and maintaining its paper or electronic documents.
