interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year). 
 (c) Maximum Rate. In no
contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest under this Agreement charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that Lender has charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder
shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law and the Lender shall at its option (i) promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by the Lender in excess of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) apply such excess
to the principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that the Lender shall not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly in any manner
whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. 
 SECTION 3.2 Facility Fee. On the
Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to Lender a non-refundable facility fee equal to 0.25% of the initial Revolving Credit Commitment. 

SECTION 3.3 Manner of Payment. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made by Borrower under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents shall be made to Lender at the Principal Office in Dollars and immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, and free and clear of all taxes at the time and in the manner provided in the Notes.

 SECTION 3.4 Evidence of Indebtedness. The Loans made by Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by
Lender in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made 

  
 16 









 
by Lender to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by Lender and the accounts and records of Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and
records of Lender shall control in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender the Note, which shall evidence Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, in addition to such accounts or records. Lender may attach
schedules to the Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 
 SECTION 3.5
Increased Costs. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, Lender; 

(ii) subject Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by it, or change the
basis of taxation of payments to Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of any Excluded Tax); or 

(iii) impose on Lender any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by Lender; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to Lender of making, converting into or maintaining any Loan (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of Lender, the Borrower shall promptly
pay to any Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting Lender or any Lending Office of Lender
or Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitment of Lender or the Loans made by Lender, to a level below that which Lender or Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies
and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written request of Lender the Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender or
Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. It is acknowledged that this Agreement is being entered into by Lender on the understanding that the Lender will not be required to maintain capital against their Revolving Credit
Commitment under current Applicable Laws, regulations and regulatory guidelines. In the event Lender shall be advised by any Governmental Authority or shall otherwise determine on the basis of pronouncements of any Governmental Authority that such
understanding is incorrect, it is agreed that Lender will be entitled to make claims under this Section 3.5 (each such claim to be made within a reasonable period of time after the period to which it relates) based upon market
requirements prevailing on the date hereof for commitments under comparable credit facilities against which capital is required to be maintained. 

  
 17 









 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of Lender setting forth
the amount or amounts necessary to compensate Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 3.5(a) or (b) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay
Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in
Requests. Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section 3.5 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than three (3) months prior to the date that Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions and of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to above shall
be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 SECTION 3.6 Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or Lender shall be required by Applicable Law to deduct any Taxes from such
payments, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 3.6) the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding
agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.6(a), the Borrower
shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law. 
 (c)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted
on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.6) paid by Lender, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower
to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender. 

  
 18 









 (e) Status of Lender. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower complete and
executed originals of IRS Form W-9 and such other information as the Borrower may reasonably request to confirm that payments to Lender are not subject to withholding. Each Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall on or prior to becoming a Lender
under this agreement deliver to the Borrower an applicable complete and executed W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or W-8IMY and any statements or certification required under the Code in such number of originals which may be reasonably requested by the
Borrower and that permits the Borrower to make payments hereunder for the account of such Lender free of such deduction or withholding of U.S. income or similar Taxes. 

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 3.5 or this Section 3.6, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount
equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under Section 3.5 this Section 3.6 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of Lender,
agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This
Section 3.6 shall not be construed to require Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

(g) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and
obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 3.6 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment.

standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority to own its Properties and to carry on its business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and authorized to
do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its Properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification and authorization except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The jurisdictions in which the Borrower and each Subsidiary are organized are described on Schedule 5.1. The Borrower does not have any Foreign Subsidiaries. 

SECTION 5.2 Ownership. Each Subsidiary of the Borrower as of the Closing Date is listed on Schedule 5.2. As of

Borrower owns 100% of Banks’ Capital Stock free and clear of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens. 
 SECTION 5.3 Authorization
Enforceability. The Borrower has the right, power and authority and has taken all necessary corporate and other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which it
is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of the Borrower, and each such document constitutes the legal, valid
and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal debtor relief laws from time to time in
effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the availability of equitable remedies. 
 SECTION 5.4
Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the Loans hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby do not
and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or
constitute a default under the certificate of formation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, agreement or other

enforceability of this Agreement, except such consents or authorizations that have already been obtained or where the failure to obtain such consent or authorization could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 5.5 Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. The Borrower and each Subsidiary (i) has all Governmental Approvals
required by any Applicable Law for it to conduct its business, each of which is in full force and effect, is final and not subject to review on appeal and is not the subject of any pending or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened attack by
direct or collateral proceeding, (ii) is in compliance with each Governmental Approval applicable to it and in compliance with all other Applicable Laws relating to it or any of its respective properties and (iii) has timely filed all

 23 









 SECTION 5.6 Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower and each Subsidiary has duly filed
or caused to be filed all federal, state, local and other Tax returns required by Applicable Law to be filed, and has paid, or made adequate provision for the payment of, all federal, state, local and other Taxes, assessments and governmental
charges or levies upon it and its property, income, profits and assets which are due and payable (other than any amount the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in
conformity with GAAP have been provided for on the books of the Borrower). Such returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Borrower or any Subsidiary for the periods covered thereby. There is no
ongoing audit or examination or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, other investigation by any Governmental Authority of the tax liability of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, except as described on Schedule 5.6. No Governmental

faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided for on the books of the Borrower and (ii) Permitted Liens). The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and
each Subsidiary in respect of federal, state, local and other Taxes for all Fiscal Years and portions thereof since the organization of the Borrower or any Subsidiary are in the judgment of the Borrower adequate.

SECTION 5.8 Environmental Matters. 

(a) The properties owned, leased or operated by the Borrower and each Subsidiary now or in the past do not contain, and to

Borrower and each Subsidiary and their respective properties and all operations conducted in connection therewith are in material compliance, and have been in material compliance, with all applicable Environmental Laws, and there is no contamination

therewith, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Borrower, any

(f) There has been no release, or to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, threat of release, of Hazardous Materials at or
from properties owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, now or in the past, in violation of or in amounts or in a manner that could give rise to liability under Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected, individually
or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 5.9 Employee Benefit Matters.

Section 501(a) of the Code except for such plans that have not yet received determination letters but for which the remedial amendment period for submitting a determination letter has not yet expired. No liability has been incurred by the

Subsidiaries, and (b) as described on Schedule 5.10, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is engaged principally or as one of its activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or
“carrying” any “margin stock” (as each such term is defined or used, directly or indirectly, in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). No part of the proceeds of any of the Loans will be
used for purchasing or carrying margin stock or for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of such Board of Governors. If requested by Lender, the Borrower will furnish to
Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U 1 referred to in Regulation U. 

SECTION 5.11 Government Regulation. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company” (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is, or after giving effect to any Loan will be, subject
to regulation under the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended, or any other Applicable Law which limits its ability to incur or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. 

SECTION 5.12 Material Contracts. Except for those breaches or defaults under any Material Contract that the Borrower or any
Material Subsidiary is contesting in good faith through applicable proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been maintained in accordance with GAAP, neither the Borrower nor any Material Subsidiary is in breach of or in default under any
Material Contract in any material respect.

(iv) Lender may demand, collect, receipt for, settle, compromise, adjust, sue for, foreclose or realize upon Collateral as

 42 









 
Obligations, in whole or in part, and in such portions and in such order as may seem best to Lender in its sole discretion, and any such action shall not in any way be considered as a waiver of
any of the rights, benefits, or security interests evidenced by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 (viii)
Lender may, at all times, proceed directly against Borrower to enforce payment of Borrower’s Obligations and shall not be required first to enforce its rights in the Collateral or any other security granted to it;

make any compromise or settlement with reference to the Collateral as Lender, in its sole discretion, chooses; 
 (f) Process
and preserve the Collateral; 
 (g) Transfer the Collateral to Lender’s name or the name of its nominee to transfer
and/or exercise as to the Collateral all the rights, powers, and remedies of an owner; provided, however, to the extent the Collateral consists of equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
and as defined in SEC Rule 13d-1(d), or any other securities the holding of which would subject Lender to the reporting requirements of Sections 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Lender shall have no right, prior to
its formal declaration of an Event of Default, to make such transfer or to vote or dispose of such securities; and 
 (h)
Perform any of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 provided, however, that upon the occurrence or commencement of an
action described in any of subsections 10.1 (i) or (j) above, all of the Obligations shall become automatically due and payable without declaration, notice or demand by Lender to or upon Borrower and any commitment to make advances
hereunder or otherwise extend credit to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall automatically terminate; provided, further, that, if Lender shall continue to make advances hereunder or otherwise extend credit to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement

advances and other credit shall nevertheless be governed by this Agreement and enforceable against and recoverable from Borrower as if such action bad never been instituted.

exercise of any other rights, all of which shall be cumulative. All rights and remedies of Lender with respect to Obligations or Collateral, whether evidenced hereby, by any of the other Loan. Documents or by any other instrument or paper, shall be
cumulative and may be exercised singularly or concurrently.

be in addition to any other right or remedy given hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or that may now or hereafter exist at law or in equity or by suit or otherwise. No delay or failure to take action on the part of Lender in exercising
any right, power or privilege shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege or
shall be construed to be a waiver of any Event of Default. No course of dealing between the Borrower, Lender or their respective agents or employees shall be effective to change, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents or to constitute a waiver of any Event of Default. 
 SECTION 10.4 Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In
the event that the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section 10.2 or Lender has exercised any remedy set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, all payments received by Lender upon the Obligations and all net
proceeds from the enforcement of the Obligations shall be applied: 
 First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations
constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to Lender; 
 Second, to payment of that
portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans; 
 Third, to payment of that portion of the
Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans; 
 Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been

the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of Lender under this Section 11.4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Lender or its respective
Affiliates may have. Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and Lender promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

SECTION 11.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction, etc. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of Texas; provided that Lender shall retain all rights under federal law. This Agreement has been entered into in Harris County, Texas, and is performable for all purposes in Harris County, Texas. The parties hereby agree that any
lawsuit, action, or proceeding that is brought (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to any of the Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated thereby, or the actions of the Lender in the negotiation, administration
or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents shall be brought in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in Harris County, Texas. Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (a) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of
such courts, (b) waives any objection it may now or hereafter have as to the venue of any such lawsuit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court, and (c) further waives any claim that it may now or hereafter have that any such court
is an inconvenient forum. Each of the parties hereto agree that service of process upon it may be made by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested at the address for notices referenced in Section 11.1 hereof. Nothing in
this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. 
 SECTION 11.6
Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO
THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON
HAS 

  
 47 









 
REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.6. 

SECTION 11.7 Injunctive Relief; Punitive Damages. 

(a) The Borrower recognizes that, in the event the Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lender. Therefore, the Borrower agrees that the Lender, at the Lender’s option, shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive relief in
any such case without the necessity of proving actual damages. 
 (b) Lender and the Borrower hereby agree that no such
Person shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document and each such Person hereby waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in
connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved through arbitration or judicially. 
 SECTION 11.8 Accounting
Matters. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or Lender shall so request, Lender and the Borrower shall negotiate in
good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of Lender); provided that, until so amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to
be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (b) the Borrower shall provide to Lender financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a
reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. 
 SECTION 11.9
Successors and Assigns; Participations. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally; No Assignment by
Borrower. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, and their respective successors
and assigns permitted hereby) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b)
Assignments and Participations by Lender. Lender may at any time assign to an assignee all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans at the time owing
to it) and grant participations in the Loans without the consent of the Borrower. Any Lender that assigns any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or sells a participant any interest in the Loans shall maintain a register that
contains the name and address of each assignee or participant that acquires an interest in the Loans and the principal amounts, and stated interest thereon, of such Person’s interest in the Loans and (ii) obtain from the assignee or
participant the documentation required under Section 3.6(e) of this Agreement (it being understood that the documentation required pursuant to Section 3.6(e) shall be delivered to the participant lender). 

  
 48 









 SECTION 11.10 Confidentiality. Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to,
any rating agency, or regulatory or similar authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws
or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 11.10, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, Participant or proposed participant, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (f) with the consent of the Borrower, (g) to recognized bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications, or
(h) to the extent such Information (I) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.10 or (II) becomes available to Lender or any of its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower or (i) to governmental regulatory authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of Lender or in accordance with Lender’s regulatory compliance policy if Lender deems necessary for the mitigation
of claims by those authorities against Lender or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates. For purposes of this Section 11.10, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses or any proposed acquisition by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, other than any such information that is available to Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary or information that is generally available to the public regardless of when it is disclosed to Lender by Borrower or any Subsidiary. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in
this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 SECTION 11.11 Performance of Duties. Each of the Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan
Documents shall be performed by the Borrower at its sole cost and expense. 
 SECTION 11.12 All Powers Coupled with
Interest. All powers of attorney and other authorizations granted to Lender pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of
the Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable), any of the Commitment remain in effect or the Revolving Credit Facility has not been terminated. 

SECTION 11.13 Survival. 

(a) All representations and warranties set forth in Article V and all representations and warranties contained in
any certificate, or any of the Loan Documents (including, but not limited to, any such representation or warranty made in or in connection with any amendment thereto) shall constitute representations and warranties made under this
Agreement. All representations and warranties made under this Agreement shall be made or deemed to be made at and as of the Closing Date (except those that are expressly made as of a specific date), shall survive the Closing Date and shall not
be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lender or any borrowing hereunder. 

(b) Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the indemnities to which Lender is entitled under the provisions of this
Article XI and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect Lender against events arising after such termination as well as before. 

  
 49 









 SECTION 11.14 Titles and Captions. Titles and captions of Articles, Sections and
subsections in, and the table of contents of, this Agreement are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.15 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or thereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.16 Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 
 (a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page of
this Agreement by facsimile or electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterparty hereof. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the
subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan
Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of Lender in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document
was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

(b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the Texas Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

SECTION 11.17 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect from the Closing Date through and including the date upon
which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full and the Revolving Credit Commitment has
been terminated. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which survives such termination.

the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), as amended, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and
address of each Borrower and other information that will allow Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Act. 
 SECTION 11.19
Independent Effect of Covenants. The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that each covenant contained in Articles VI, VII, VIII or IX hereof shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, the
Borrower shall not engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Articles VI, VII, VIII or IX, before or after giving effect to such transaction or act, the Borrower shall
or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in Articles VI, VII, VIII or IX. 
 SECTION 11.20
Inconsistencies with Other Documents. In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 

SECTION 11.21 FINAL AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
