repayments not exactly in proportion.” 
  

	 	(b)	by deleting Section 2.8 in its entirety and substituting the following new Section 2.8 in proper numerical order in lieu thereof:

added to the principal balance of the Loan Account as provided in this §2.8.2 shall bear interest at the interest rate then and thereafter applicable to Base Rate Loans.” 
  

	 	(c)	by deleting Section 2.9 in its entirety and substituting the following new Section 2.9 in proper numerical order in lieu thereof: 

  
 “2.9. Request for Revolving Credit Loans.

Borrowers’ Representative shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit C hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in a writing in the form of Exhibit C hereto) of each Revolving Credit
Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) no later than (a) 12:00 noon on the Business Day of the proposed Drawdown Date of any Base Rate Loan and (b) 1:00 p.m. three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the proposed

Eurodollar Rate Loan is requested, the Interest Period for such Revolving Credit Loan. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, but in any event no later than 2:00 PM on the proposed Drawdown Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify each of the
Revolving Credit Lenders thereof. Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers and shall obligate the Borrowers to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Each Loan Request
shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. 
  
 2.9.2. Swing Line. Notwithstanding the notice and minimum amount requirements set forth in §2.9.1 but otherwise in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (except with respect to Protective OverAdvances), the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion and without conferring with the Lenders, make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrowers (a) by entry
of credits to the Borrowers’ operating account or such other account (the “Operating 
  

 5 








 Account”) with the Administrative Agent to cover checks or other charges which the Borrowers
have drawn or made against such account, (b) in an amount as otherwise requested by the Borrowers or (c) as Protective OverAdvances. The Borrowers hereby request and authorize the Administrative Agent to make from time to time such Revolving Credit
Loans by means of appropriate entries of such credits sufficient to cover checks and other charges then presented for payment from the Operating Account or as otherwise so requested. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the making of such
Revolving Credit Loans shall, in each case, be subject in all respects to the provisions of this Agreement as if they were Revolving Credit Loans covered by a Loan Request including, without limitation, the limitations set forth in §2.1 and the
requirements that the applicable provisions of §11 (in the case of Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date) and §12 be satisfied (except in the case of Protective OverAdvances). All actions taken by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to the provisions of this §2.9.2 shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Revolving Credit Lenders absent the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to
this §2.9.2 shall be Base Rate Loans until converted in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement and, prior to a Settlement, such interest shall be for the account of the Administrative Agent.” 
  

	 	(d)	by deleting Section 2.12.1 in its entirety and substituting the following new Section 2.12.1 in proper numerical order in lieu thereof: 

  
 “2.12.1. General. On each Settlement Date, the
Administrative Agent shall, not later than 12:00 noon (Boston time), give telephonic or facsimile notice (a) to the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrowers of the respective outstanding amount of Revolving Credit Loans made by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders from the immediately preceding Settlement Date through the close of business on the prior day and the amount of any Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made (following the giving of notice pursuant to
§2.9.1) on such date pursuant to a Loan Request and (b) to the Revolving Credit Lenders of the amount (a “Settlement Amount”) that each Revolving Credit Lender (a “Settling Lender”) shall pay to
effect a Settlement of any Revolving Credit Loan. A statement of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrowers or to the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any amounts owing under this §2.12.1 shall
be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing (absent manifest error). Each Settling Lender shall, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Boston time) on such Settlement Date, effect a wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
Administrative Agent in the amount of the Settlement Amount for such Settling Lender. All funds advanced by any Lender as a Settling Lender pursuant to this §2.12.1 shall for all purposes be treated as a Revolving Credit Loan made by such
Settling Lender to the Borrowers and all funds received by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this §2.12.1 shall for all purposes be treated as repayment of amounts owed with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made by such Revolving Credit
Lender. In the event that any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar cases or proceedings in which any Borrower is a debtor prevent a Settling Lender from making any Revolving Credit Loan to effect a Settlement as
contemplated hereby, such Settling Lender will make such dispositions and arrangements with the other Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to such Revolving Credit Loans, either by way of purchase of participations, distribution, pro
tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Revolving Credit Lender’s share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans being equal, as nearly as may be, to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment
Percentage of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans.”

	 	(e)	by deleting Section 2.13.2 in its entirety and substituting the following new Section 2.13.2 in proper numerical order in lieu thereof: 

  
 “2.13.2. Application of Payments Absent an Event of
Default. 
  
 (a) Absent an Event
of Default of which the account officers of the Administrative Agent active on the Borrowers’ account have knowledge, all funds transferred to the Fleet Concentration Account and for which the Borrowers have received credits shall be applied to
the Obligations as follows: 
  
 (i) first, to
pay amounts then due and payable under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents; 
  
 (ii) second, to reduce Swing Line Loans made by the Administrative Agent and for which Settlement has not then been made; 
  
 (iii) third, to reduce other Revolving Credit Loans which
are Base Rate Loans; 
  
 (iv) fourth, to reduce
Revolving Credit Loans which are Eurodollar Rate Loans; and 
  
 (v) fifth, except as otherwise required by §§2.13.2(b) and (c), to the Operating Account. 
  
 (b) All prepayments of Eurodollar Rate Loans prior to the end of an Interest Period shall obligate the Borrowers to pay any breakage costs
associated with such Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with §5.12. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrowers may elect to avoid such breakage costs by providing to the Administrative Agent cash in an amount sufficient to
cash collateralize such Eurodollar Rate Loans, but in no event shall the Borrowers be deemed to have paid such Eurodollar Rate Loans until such cash has been paid to the Administrative Agent for application to such Eurodollar Rate Loans. The
Administrative Agent may elect to cause such cash collateral to be deposited into a cash collateral account pursuant to the terms of a cash collateral agreement executed by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and in form and substance
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In each such case, the Borrowers agree to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such instruments and documents, including Uniform Commercial Code financing statements and agreements with any third
party depository banks, as the Administrative Agent may request. 
  
 (c) All prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this §2.13.2 shall be allocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders making such Revolving Credit Loans, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the
respective unpaid principal amount of such Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, with adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or repayments not exactly in proportion. Prior to any Settlement Date, however, all prepayments
of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied in accordance with this §2.13.2, first to outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of the Administrative Agent.”

	 	(f)	by adding the following new Section 2.16 in proper numerical order therein: 

  

“2.16. Conversion Options. 
  
 2.16.1. Conversion to Different Type of Revolving Credit Loan. The Borrowers’ Representative may elect from time to
time to convert any outstanding Revolving Credit Loan to a Revolving Credit Loan of another Type, provided that (a) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, the Borrowers’ Representative shall
give the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Days prior written notice of such election, (b) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrowers’ Representative shall give the
Administrative Agent at least three (3) Eurodollar Business Days prior written notice of such election, (c) with respect to any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan, such conversion shall only be made on the last day of
the Interest Period with respect thereto and (d) no Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Rate Loan when any Default has occurred and is continuing. On the date on which such conversion is being made each Revolving Credit Lender
shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Revolving Credit Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may be. All or any part of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of
any Type may be converted into a Revolving Credit Loan of another Type as provided herein, provided that any partial conversion shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.
Each Conversion Request relating to the conversion of a Revolving Credit Loan to a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrowers. 
  
 2.16.2. Continuation of Type of Revolving Credit Loan. Any Revolving Credit Loan of any Type may be continued as a Revolving
Credit Loan of the same Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Borrowers with the notice provisions contained in §2.16.1; provided that no Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued as such
when any Default has occurred and is continuing, but in such case shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default of which officers of
the Administrative Agent active upon the Borrowers’ account have actual knowledge. In the event that the Borrowers fail to provide any such notice with respect to the continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan as such, then such Eurodollar Rate
Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly when any such automatic conversion contemplated by this §2.16.2
is scheduled to occur. 
  
 2.16.3. Eurodollar
Rate Loans. Any conversion to or from Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Eurodollar Rate Loans having the same
Interest Period shall not be less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. No more than 5 Eurodollar Rate Loans having different Interest Periods may be outstanding at any time.”

 §3. Amendments to Section 5 of the Credit Agreement. Section 5 of the Credit Agreement
is hereby amended as follows: 
  
 (a) by deleting Section 5.4 in
its entirety and substituting the following new Section 5.4 in proper numerical order in lieu thereof: 
  
 “5.4. Computations. 
  
 All computations of interest on the Loans and of Fees shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed.
Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The outstanding amount of the Loans as reflected on the Revolving Credit Note Records and the Tranche
B Lenders records and from time to time shall be considered correct and binding on the Borrowers unless within five (5) Business Days after receipt of any notice by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders of such outstanding amount, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Borrowers Representative to the contrary.” 
  
 (b) by adding the following new Sections 5.10, 5.11 and 5.12 in proper numerical order therein: 
  
 “5.10. Inability to Determine Eurodollar
Rate. In the event, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall in good faith determine that (a) adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining the
Eurodollar Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest to be applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan during any Interest Period or (b) the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to the Revolving Credit Lenders of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Loans during such period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive and binding on the
Borrowers and the Revolving Credit Lenders) to the Borrowers’ Representative and the Revolving Credit Lenders. In such event (i) any Loan Request or Conversion Request with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and
shall be deemed a request for Base Rate Loans, (ii) each Eurodollar Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (iii) the obligations of the Revolving Credit
Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrowers’
Representative and the Revolving Credit Lenders. 
  
 5.11. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Revolving Credit Lender to make or
maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Revolving Credit Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrowers’ Representative and the other Revolving Credit Lenders and thereupon (a) the commitment of such Revolving Credit
Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, if any, shall be
converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans or within such earlier period as 
  

 9 








 may be required by law. The Borrowers hereby agree promptly to pay the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Revolving Credit Lender, upon demand by such Revolving Credit Lender, any additional amounts reasonably necessary to compensate such Revolving Credit Lender for any costs incurred by such Revolving Credit Lender in making any
conversion in accordance with this §5.11, including any interest or reasonable fees payable by such Revolving Credit Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder. 
  
 5.12. Indemnity. The Borrowers agree to
indemnify each Revolving Credit Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense or other “breakage fees” (so-called) (including loss of anticipated profits) that such Revolving Credit Lender may sustain
or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrowers in payment of the principal amount of or any interest on any Eurodollar Rate Loans as and when due and payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or reasonable fees
payable by such Revolving Credit Lender to banks of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Eurodollar Rate Loans, (b) default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing or conversion after the Borrowers’ Representative has given (or is
deemed to have given) a Loan Request or a Conversion Request relating thereto in accordance with §2.9 or §2.16 or (c) the making of any payment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan or the making of any conversion of any such Loan to a Base Rate Loan
on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto, including interest or reasonable fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain any such Loans.”
