With respect to Revolving Loans to be made after the Effective Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Revolving Loan to be made by such
Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section, and the Administrative Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Revolving Loan to be provided by such Lender. In such event, if such Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the
proceeds of such Revolving Loan, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Revolving Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Loan is
made available to the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay the amount of such
interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays to the Administrative Agent
the amount of such Revolving Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall
have failed to make available the proceeds of a Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender.

Quotes for each Interest Period that are accepted. The failure of the Borrower to give such notice by such time shall constitute nonacceptance. The Borrower may accept any Bid Rate Quote in whole or in part; provided that: 

(A) the aggregate principal amount of each Bid Rate Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set
forth in the related Bid Rate Quote Request; 
 (B) the aggregate principal amount of each Bid
Rate Borrowing shall comply with the provisions of Section 2.2.(b)(ii) and together with all other Bid Rate Loans then outstanding shall not cause the limits specified in Section 2.15. to be violated; 

(C) acceptance of Bid Rate Quotes may be made only in ascending order of Absolute Rates or LIBOR Margins,
as applicable, in each case beginning with the lowest rate so offered; 
 (D) any acceptance in
part by the Borrower shall be in a minimum amount of $3,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and 
 (E) the Borrower may not accept any Bid Rate Quotes that fails to comply with Section 2.2.(c) or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement. 

(ii) If Bid Rate Quotes are made by two or more Lenders with the same Absolute Rates or LIBOR Margins, as
applicable, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which Bid Rate Quotes are permitted to be accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Bid Rate Loans in respect of which such Bid Rate Quotes
are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Lenders in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such Bid Rate Quotes. Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Bid Rate Loans shall be conclusive
in the absence of manifest error. 
 (f) Obligation to Make Bid Rate Loans. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly (and in any event not later than (x) 2:00 p.m. on the proposed date of borrowing of Absolute Rate Loans and (y) on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing of LIBOR Margin Loans) notify
each Lender that submitted a Bid Rate Quote as to whose Bid Rate Quote has been accepted and the amount and rate thereof. A Lender who is notified that it has been selected to make a Bid Rate Loan may designate its Designated Lender (if any) to fund
such Bid Rate Loan on its behalf, as described in Section 12.6.(d). Any Designated Lender which funds a Bid Rate Loan shall on and after the time of such funding become the obligee in respect of such Bid Rate Loan and be entitled to receive
payment thereof when due. No Lender shall be relieved of its obligation to fund a Bid Rate Loan, and no Designated Lender shall assume such obligation, prior to the time the applicable Bid Rate Loan is funded. Any Lender whose offer to make any Bid
Rate Loan has been accepted shall, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date specified for the making of such Loan, make the amount of such Loan available to the 

  
 - 33 -









 
Administrative Agent at its Principal Office in immediately available funds, for the account of the Borrower. The amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower not later than 4:00 p.m. on such date by depositing the same, in immediately available funds, in an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower. 

(g) No Effect on Commitment. Except for the purpose and to the extent expressly stated in Section 2.12. and
2.15., the amount of any Bid Rate Loan made by any Lender shall not constitute a utilization of such Lender’s Commitment. 

Section 2.3. Swingline Loans. 
 (a) Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including without limitation Section 2.15., the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower, during the
period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, $40,000,000, as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the
terms hereof. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Swingline Commitment in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Swingline Lender the amount of such excess. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder. 

(b) Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the
Swingline Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or telephonic notice of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan. Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be delivered to the Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m. on the proposed
date of such borrowing. Any telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written Notice of Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent to the
Swingline Lender by telecopy on the same day of the giving of such telephonic notice. Not later than 4:00 p.m. on the date of the requested Swingline Loan and subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 5.2. for
such borrowing, the Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in Dollars, in immediately available funds, at the account specified by the Borrower in the Notice of Swingline Borrowing.

 (c) Interest. Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate as in
effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin (or at such other rate or rates as the Borrower and the Swingline Lender may agree from time to time in writing). Interest on Swingline Loans is solely for the account of the Swingline
Lender (except to the extent a Lender acquires a participating interest in a Swingline Loan pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e)). All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable on the dates and in the manner
provided in Section 2.5. with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans (except as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any particular Swingline Loan). 

(d) Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc. Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral
multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower. Any voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in integral multiples of $100,000 or the aggregate principal amount of
all outstanding Swingline Loans (or such other minimum amounts upon which the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and in connection with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent prior
written notice thereof no later than 1:00 p.m. on the day prior to the date of such prepayment. The Swingline Loans shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced by the Swingline Note. 

  
 - 34 -









 (e) Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans. The Borrower
agrees to repay each Swingline Loan within five (5) Business Days after the date such Swingline Loan was made; provided, that the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used to repay a Swingline Loan more than once during any 30-day period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date (or such earlier date as the Swingline Lender and the
Borrower may agree in writing). In lieu of demanding repayment of any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf),
request a borrowing of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan. The amount limitations contained in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to
any borrowing of such Revolving Loans made pursuant to this subsection. The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Revolving Loans not later than 12:00 noon at least one Business Day prior to the
proposed date of such borrowing. Promptly after receipt of such notice of borrowing of Revolving Loans from the Swingline Lender under the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.
Not later than 2:00 p.m. on the proposed date of such borrowing, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the
Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Revolving Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan. If the Lenders are prohibited from making
Revolving Loans required to be made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation, the occurrence of any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 10.1.(f) or (g), each Lender shall purchase from
the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan, by directly purchasing a participation in such Swingline Loan in such
amount and paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds. A Lender’s obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim
against the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default (including without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in
Sections 10.1. (f) or (g)), or the termination of any Lender’s Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan
Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available
to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such
Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the
amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Lenders to purchase a participation therein). Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all
payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to purchase
pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). 

  
 - 35 -









 (f) Defaulting Lenders. Upon demand by the Administrative Agent at
any time while a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent a reallocation cannot be, or can only partially be, effected under Section 3.9.(d), the Borrower shall, within three Business Days of such demand, (i) deliver to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Swingline Lender, cash collateral or other credit support satisfactory to the Swingline Lender in its sole discretion in an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the
aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans then outstanding or (ii) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to the Swingline Lender, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by
such Defaulting Lender. Such cash collateral or other credit support shall be subject to the provisions of Section 3.9.(f). 

Section 2.4. Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including without limitation, Section 2.15., the Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, agrees to issue for the
account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date, one or more standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) up to a
maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $100,000,000 (the “L/C Commitment Amount”). The parties hereto agree that the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

 (b) Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of
each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond
the date that is five (5) days prior to the Termination Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the
automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the Issuing Bank but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is five
(5) days prior to the Termination Date; provided, further, that a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration date of not more than one year
beyond the Termination Date so long as the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank no later than 20 Business Days prior to the Termination Date cash collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into the
Letter of Credit Collateral Account in an amount equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit. The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be at least $100,000 (or such lesser amount as may be acceptable to the Borrower, the
Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent). 
 (c) Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The
Borrower shall give the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent written notice at least five (5) Business Days (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to
describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the
proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested from
time to time by the Issuing Bank. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and delivered such applications and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the other terms and
conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 5.2., the Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the
stipulated beneficiary but in no event prior to the date five (5) Business Days (or such shorter time period as may be acceptable to the Issuing Bank) following the date after which the 

  
 - 36 -









 
Issuing Bank has received all of the items, if any, required to be delivered to it under this subsection. The Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such
issuance would conflict with, or cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law. References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include
extensions or modifications of any outstanding Letters of Credit which modifications increase the obligations of the Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires. Upon the written request of the Borrower,
the Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each issued Letter of Credit within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan
Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control. 
 (d) Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by
the Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Bank as a
result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall
not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of each demand for payment under such
Letter of Credit at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (other than as provided in this subsection). Upon
receipt by the Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of the immediately following subsection
(i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment. 
 (e) Manner of Reimbursement. Upon
its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to
reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement. If the Borrower fails to so advise
the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, the failure of which the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V. would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans)
in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. and
(ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply. The limitations set forth in the second sentence of Section 2.1.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing
of Base Rate Loans under this subsection. 
 (f) Effect of Letters of Credit on Commitments. Upon the
issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the
product of (i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding. 

(g) Issuing Bank’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. In
examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing 

  
 - 37 -









 
Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not
sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not
in limitation of the foregoing, none of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in
connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective
for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of
any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document
required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any
consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Bank’s or Administrative Agent’s rights or
powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against the Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
any drawing made under any Letter of Credit, and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the
Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the
Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other
document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any
non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate
which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or
discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.10., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing
Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and to repay any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of the immediately preceding subsection (e), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or such Lender in respect of a Letter 

  
 - 38 -









 
of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the
Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit. 

(h) Amendments, Etc. The issuance by the Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any
Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the Issuing Bank), and no such amendment,
supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form
or (ii) the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if required by Section 12.7.) shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the
fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5.(c). 
 (i) Lenders’ Participation in
Letters of Credit. Immediately upon (i) the Effective Date with respect to all Existing Letters of Credit and (ii) the date of issuance by the Issuing Bank of all other Letters of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely,
irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Bank with
respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when due, such
Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Bank’s liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter
of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount
equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage in any interest or
other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to the second and the last sentences of Section 3.5.(c)). 

(j) Payment Obligation of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of the Issuing Bank, on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed
by the Borrower pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving
Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such drawing. If the notice referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.4.(e) is received by a Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., then such Lender shall
make such payment available to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of demand therefor; otherwise, such payment shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the next succeeding Business
Day. Each Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the Issuing Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and
unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or
any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 10.1.(f) or (g) or (iv) the 

  
 - 39 -









 
termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

 (k) Information to Lenders. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the
Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly deliver the same to each Lender and the Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. Upon the request of any Lender
from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Bank shall have no duty to
notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure of the Issuing Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under the
immediately preceding subsection (j). 
 (l) Defaulting Lenders. Upon demand by the Administrative Agent
at any time while a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent a reallocation cannot be, or can only partially be, effected under Section 3.9.(d), the Borrower shall, within three Business Days of such demand, (i) deliver to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, cash collateral or other credit support satisfactory to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion in an amount equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Letter of
Credit Liabilities then outstanding or (ii) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and to the Issuing Bank, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender. Such cash
collateral or other credit support shall be subject to the provisions of Section 3.9.(f). 
 Section 2.5. Rates and Payment of
Interest on Loans. 
 (a) Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per
annum rates: 
 (i) during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in
effect from time to time), plus the Applicable Margin; 
 (ii) during such periods as such
Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin; 
 (iii) if such Loan is an Absolute Rate Loan, at the Absolute Rate for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.2.; and 

(iv) if such Loan is a LIBOR Margin Loan, at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor
plus the LIBOR Margin quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.2. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, while an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any
Loan made by such Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid
interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law). 

  
 - 40 -









 (b) Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the
outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable (i) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective Date,
(ii) in the case of a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period therefor, and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at three-month intervals following the first day of such Interest Period and
(iii) in the case of any Loan, on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity, due to acceleration or otherwise). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to
time on demand. All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

Section 2.6. Number of Interest Periods. 
 There may be no more than 6 different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans and Bid Rate Loans, collectively, outstanding at the same time. 
 Section 2.7. Repayment of Loans. 
 (a) Revolving
Loans. The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans on the Termination Date. 

(b) Bid Rate Loans. The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but
unpaid interest on, each Bid Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period of such Bid Rate Loan. 
 Section 2.8. Prepayments.

 (a) Optional. Subject to Section 4.4., (i) the Borrower may prepay any Loan (other than a
Bid Rate Loan) at any time without premium or penalty, and (ii) the Borrower may prepay at any time without premium or penalty a Bid Rate Loan that has been made with respect to a Bid Rate Quote Request containing an express statement that such
Bid Rate Loan could be prepaid without premium or penalty (other than any compensation required to be paid pursuant to Section 4.4.). Any other Bid Rate Loan may only be prepaid with the prior written consent of the Lender holding such Bid Rate
Loan. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice of the prepayment of any Loan. Each voluntary prepayment of Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof (or if less, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding). 
  

	 	(b)	 Mandatory. 


 (i) Commitment Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Bid Rate Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of
Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Commitments, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders then holding Commitments (or if the Commitments have been terminated, then
holding outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, Bid Rate Loans and/or Letter of Credit Liabilities), the amount of such excess. 
 (ii) Bid Rate Facility Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Bid Rate Loans exceeds one-half of the aggregate amount of all Commitments in


  
 - 41 -









 
effect at such time, then the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the applicable Lenders the amount of such excess. 

(iii) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (b)(i)
shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans and any Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. and if any Letters of Credit are outstanding at such time, the remainder, if any, shall be
deposited into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account for application to any Reimbursement Obligations. Amounts paid under the preceding subsection (b)(ii) shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.2.(e). If the Borrower is required
to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans or Bid Rate Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 4.4. 

Section 2.9. Continuation. 
 So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by
selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan. Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount, and each new Interest Period selected under
this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 12:00 noon on
the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telephone (confirmed promptly in writing if by telephone), telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication
in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which
shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of
Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, such Loan will
automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month; provided, however that if a Default or Event of Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the
last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.10. or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section. 

Section 2.10. Conversion. 
 The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert all
or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type; provided, however, a Base Rate Loan may not be Converted into a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default exists. Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans
shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 12:00 noon 3 Business Days prior to the date of any proposed
Conversion. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telephone (confirmed
promptly in writing), telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion
of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such 

  
 - 42 -









 
Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by
and binding on the Borrower once given. 
 Section 2.11. Notes. 

(a) Notes. Except in the case of a Lender that has requested not to receive a Revolving Note, the Revolving Loans
made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Revolving Note, payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to, subject to Section 12.6.(b)(iv), the amount of its Commitment as originally in
effect and otherwise duly completed. Except in the case of a Lender that has requested not to receive a Bid Rate Note, the Bid Rate Loans made by a Lender to the Borrower shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Bid Rate Note
payable to the order of such Lender. The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a Swingline Note payable to the order of the Swingline Lender. 

(b) Records. The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan
made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however,
that (i) the failure of a Lender to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents and (ii) if there is a discrepancy between such records of a Lender and the statements of accounts
maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8., in the absence of manifest error, the statements of account maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.8. shall be controlling. 

(c) Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a
Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or
(B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note. 

Section 2.12. Voluntary Reductions of the Commitment. 

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the Commitments (for which purpose
use of the Commitments shall be deemed to include the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans and Bid Rate Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or
premium upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (which in the
case of any partial reduction of the Commitments shall not be less than $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount in the aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the
Administrative Agent (“Commitment Reduction Notice”); provided, however, the Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the Commitments below $100,000,000 unless the Borrower is terminating the Commitments in full.
Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed termination or Commitment reduction. The Commitments, once terminated or reduced pursuant to this Section, may not be increased
or reinstated. 

  
 - 43 -









 Section 2.13. Extension of Termination Date. 

The Borrower shall have the right, exercisable one time, to extend the Termination Date by one year. The Borrower may
exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent at least 60 days but not more than 180 days prior to the current Termination Date, a written request for such extension (an “Extension Request”). The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders if it receives an Extension Request promptly upon receipt thereof. Subject to satisfaction of the following conditions, the Termination Date shall be extended for one year effective upon receipt by the
Administrative Agent of the Extension Request and payment of the fee referred to in the following clause (y): (x) immediately prior to such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, (A) no Default or Event of Default
shall exist and (B) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date
of such extension with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have
been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances or resulting from transactions not prohibited under the Loan Documents and (y) the Borrower shall have paid the fees
payable under Section 3.5.(d). At any time prior to the effectiveness of any such extension, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate from the chief executive officer or
chief financial officer certifying the matters referred to in the immediately preceding clauses (x)(A) and (x)(B). 
 Section 2.14.
Expiration Date of Letters of Credit Past Commitment Termination Date. 
 If on the date the Commitments are
terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder with respect to which the Borrower has not complied with the conditions set
forth in the second proviso of the second sentence of Section 2.4.(b), the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, an amount of money sufficient to
cause the balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to equal the aggregate Stated Amount of such Letters of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account. 

Section 2.15. Amount Limitations. 
 Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall be required to make a Loan, no Lender shall make any Bid Rate Loan, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to
issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12. shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Loan, the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Commitments: 

(a) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Bid Rate Loans and Swingline Loans, together with
the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, would exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time; or 
 (b) the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Bid Rate Loans would exceed 50.0% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments at such time. 

  
 - 44 -









 Section 2.16. Increase of Commitments. 

The Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Commitments by providing written
notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be irrevocable once given; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such increases the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall not exceed $450,000,000. Each such
increase in the Commitments must be an aggregate minimum amount of $20,000,000 and integral multiples of $10,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such
increase in the Commitments, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and the allocations of the
increase in the Commitments among such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders, provided that, such existing Lenders and such other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders,
and the amounts of their respective increases in Commitments or new Commitments, as the case may be, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. No Lender shall be obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Commitment or provide a new
Commitment, and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee. If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Lender is increasing its Commitment,
such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Lender hereunder (or in the case of an existing Lender, increases its Commitment) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Lenders its Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the
Lenders’ respective Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Lenders, in same day funds, an amount
equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other Lenders under
Section 2.4.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders amounts
payable, if any, to such Lenders under Section 4.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such Revolving Loans. Effecting the increase of the Commitments under this Section is subject to the following conditions precedent: (x) no Default or
Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such increase, (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party shall be
true and correct in all material respects on the effective date of such increase except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have
been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances or transactions, in either event, not prohibited hereunder, and (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received each
of the following, in form and substance substantially consistent with the corresponding documents delivered on the Agreement Date or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the
Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of (A) all corporate, partnership or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such increase and (B) all corporate, partnership or other
necessary action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase; (ii) an opinion of counsel to the Borrower and the Guarantors, and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders covering such matters as reasonably
requested by the Administrative Agent; and (iii) except in the case of a new Lender or an existing Lender that has requested not to receive a Revolving Note, new Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Lenders and
replacement Revolving Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Lenders increasing their Commitments, in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment at the time of the effectiveness of the applicable increase in the aggregate amount of
the Commitments. In connection with any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.16. any Lender becoming a party hereto shall execute such documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request.

 Section 2.17. Funds Transfer Disbursements. 

(a) Generally. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by
the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Transfer Authorizer Designation Form. The Borrower agrees to be bound by any
transfer request: (i) authorized or transmitted by the Borrower; or (ii) made in the Borrower’s name and accepted by the Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with these transfer instructions, even if not properly
authorized by the Borrower. The Borrower further agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent may rely solely on any bank routing number or identifying bank account number or name provided by the Borrower in the Transfer Authorizer
Designation Form to effect a wire of funds transfer even if the information provided by the Borrower identifies a different bank or account holder than named by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take
any actions to detect errors in information provided by the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent 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, the Borrower agrees that no matter how many times the Administrative Agent takes these actions the 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 the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to notify
the 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 the Administrative Agent’s confirmation to the Borrower of such transfer.

 (b) Funds Transfer. The Administrative Agent will, in its good faith judgment, determine the funds
transfer system and the means by which each transfer will be made. The Administrative Agent may delay or refuse to accept a funds transfer request if the transfer would: (i) violate the terms of this authorization, (ii) require use of a
bank unacceptable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or prohibited by any Governmental Authority, (iii) cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Federal Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline or
(iv) otherwise cause the Administrative Agent or any Lender to violate any Applicable Law or regulation. 

(c) Limitation of Liability. None of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be liable to
the Borrower or any other parties for (i) errors, acts or failures to act of others (in each case, other than their respective Affiliates), including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which the
Borrower’s transfers may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (ii) 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, Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s
control, or (iii) any special, consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (x) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (y) the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or the Borrower knew
or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly made in this Agreement.

 ARTICLE III. PAYMENTS, FEES
AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 Section 3.1. Payments. 

(a) Payments by Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest, Fees
and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Principal
Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to Section 10.5., the
Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the
Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to the
Issuing Bank by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by the Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the account of the Issuing Bank. In the event the Administrative
Agent fails to pay such amounts to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, within one Business Day of receipt of such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the
Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day
and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for the period of such extension. 
 (b) Presumptions Regarding Payments by Borrower. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may (but shall not
be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as
the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent on demand that amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

Section 3.2. Pro Rata Treatment. 
 Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1.(a), 2.3.(e) and 2.4.(e) shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the fees under
Sections 3.5.(b), the first sentence of 3.5.(c) and 3.5.(d) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.12. 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 Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid
principal amounts of the Revolving Loans held by them, provided that, subject to Section 3.9., if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans the outstanding principal amount of the


  
 - 47 -









 
Revolving Loans shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied
to the Revolving Loans 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; (c) each payment
of interest on Revolving Loans shall be made for the account of the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (d) the Conversion and Continuation of
Revolving Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Sections 4.1.(c) and 4.6.) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Loans and the then current Interest Period
for each Lender’s portion of each such Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (e) each prepayment of principal of Bid Rate Loans by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8.(b)(ii) shall be made for account of the Lenders then owed Bid
Rate Loans pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Bid Rate Loans then owing to each such Lender; (f) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under
Section 2.3., shall be in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages; and (g) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.4., shall be in accordance with
their respective Commitment Percentages. All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Lender shall have acquired a
participating interest in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.3.(e), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in accordance with such participating interests). 
 Section 3.3. Sharing of Payments, Etc. 
 If a Lender
shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any of its Loans under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s
lien, counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment
should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 10.5., as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct
interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of
such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2. or Section 10.5., as applicable. To such end, all the
Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct
interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans
in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other
indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower. 
 Section 3.4. Several Obligations. 

No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be
made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to
perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender. 

  
 - 48 -









 Section 3.5. Fees. 

(a) Closing Fee. On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each Lender all
loan fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Facility
Fees. During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a facility fee equal to the daily aggregate amount of the Commitments
(whether or not utilized) times a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee. Such fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December during the term of this Agreement and on the Termination
Date or any earlier date of termination of the Commitments or reduction of the Commitments to zero. The Borrower acknowledges that the fee payable hereunder is a bona fide facility fee and is intended as reasonable compensation to the Lenders for
committing to make and making funds available to the Borrower as described herein and for no other purposes. 

(c) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a
letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) to and including the date
such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. In addition to such fees, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank solely for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of
each Letter of Credit equal to two-tenths of one percent (0.20%) per annum on the daily average Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) to and including the date
such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. The fees provided for in this subsection shall be nonrefundable and payable in arrears (i) quarterly on the last day of
March, June, September and December, (ii) on the Termination Date, (iii) on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv) thereafter from time to time on demand of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall pay

to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any other transaction relating thereto. 
 (d) Revolving Credit Extension Fee. If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.13., the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender a fee equal to 0.35% of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment being extended (whether or not such Commitment amount being extended is then being utilized). Such fee shall be due and payable in full on the date
the Administrative Agent receives the Extension Request pursuant to such Section. 
 (e) Administrative and
Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Administrative Agent as provided in the Fee Letter and as may be otherwise agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 Section 3.6. Computations. 
 Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of
days elapsed. 

  
 - 49 -









 Section 3.7. Usury. 

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of
interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective
Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever,
interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and
shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.5.(a)(i) through (iv) and, with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.3.(c). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency
fees, syndication fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and
expenses paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in each case, in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due. 

Section 3.8. Statements of Account. 
 The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments calculated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and such account shall be deemed conclusive absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of
its obligations hereunder. 
 Section 3.9. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Generally. If any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then such Defaulting Lender’s right to
participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect any amendment, consent or waiver of the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to
direct any action or inaction of the Administrative Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of the Requisite Lenders shall be suspended while such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, that the foregoing
shall not permit (i) an increase in such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) an extension of the maturity date of such Lender’s Loans or other Obligations owing to such Lender, in each of the cases described in clauses (i) and (ii),
without such Lender’s consent, or (iii) an extension of the expiration date of a Letter of Credit beyond the Termination Date (except as permitted under Section 2.4.(b)) or, with respect to any Letter of Credit having an expiration
date beyond the Termination Date as permitted by Section 2.4.(b), an extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit without such Lender’s consent if such Lender is directly and adversely affected thereby. If a Lender is a
Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), then the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal


  
 - 50 -









 
Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. No Commitment of any Lender shall be
increased or otherwise affected, and except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section, performance by the Borrower of its obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of the
operation of this Section. The rights and remedies of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders against a Defaulting Lender under this Section are in addition to any other rights and remedies the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. 

(b) Treatment of Payments. Until the Defaulting Lender Excess of a Defaulting Lender has been reduced to zero, any
payment of the principal of the Revolving Loans owing to the Defaulting Lender shall, unless the Requisite Lenders agree otherwise, be applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans of the applicable Non-Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amount paid by the Borrower for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document will not be required to be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but
will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until such Defaulting Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender in accordance with subsection (f) below or the termination of the Commitments
and payment in full of all Obligations of the Borrower hereunder and the other Loan Documents, at which time such amounts will be applied by the Administrative Agent to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority:
first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender under this Agreement; second, if determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the Swingline Lender, held
in such account as cash collateral for such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then outstanding and for such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the
Swingline Loans then outstanding; third, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, if
so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loans under this Agreement. If such Lender is still a Defaulting Lender and
any amounts remain in such account on the date that the Commitments are terminated and all Obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are paid in full, then such amounts will be applied by the Administrative Agent to
the making of payments in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender under this Agreement; second, to the payment of
interest then due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them; third, to the payment of Fees then due and payable to the
Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such Fees then due and payable to them; fourth, to pay principal of all Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and other Letter of Credit Liabilities then
due and payable to the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them; fifth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders
other than Defaulting Lenders; and sixth, after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of
competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. 
 (c) Fees. During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting
Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Fees otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender. 

  
 - 51 -









 (d) Reallocation of Letter of Credit and Swingline Exposure. As
promptly as possible once a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall reallocate the Commitment Percentages of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with
their Commitment Percentages (determined exclusive of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender) but only (i) if no Default or Event of Default exists, and (ii) to the extent that such reallocation will not result in the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans owing to a Non-Defaulting Lender, together with the aggregate amount of participation interests such Non-Defaulting Lender has acquired under the terms of this Agreement in outstanding Swingline Loans
and Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeding such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. 
 (e) Borrowing
Requests. While any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower authorizes each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in such
Person’s discretion, Notices of Revolving Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.1. in such amounts and at such times as may be required to (i) reimburse any Reimbursement Obligation that has become due and payable, (ii) repay an
outstanding Swingline Loan or (iii) cash collateralize the Obligations of the Borrower in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender
in respect of such Letters of Credit, in each case after giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and subject to the terms of Sections 2.3.(f) and 2.4.(l). 

(f) Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. All cash collateral and other credit support
provided pursuant to Sections 2.3.(f) or 2.4.(l) or the immediately preceding subsection (b) or (e) (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in accounts maintained with the
Administrative Agent consistent with the requirements of the account referred to in Section 10.6. The Borrower hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank and the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash collateral and other credit support, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the Obligations to
which such cash collateral and other credit support may be applied pursuant to this Section. Cash collateral and other credit support provided under Sections 2.3.(f) or 2.4.(l) or the immediately preceding subsection (b) or (e), shall be
held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Obligations, Swingline Loans or obligations to fund participations therein, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein. Such cash collateral and
other credit support (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans giving rise thereto, the termination of the status of a Lender
as a Defaulting Lender in accordance with the immediately following subsection (i), upon the purchase of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment pursuant to the immediately following subsection (g), the termination of a Defaulting
Lender’s Commitment pursuant to the immediately following subsection (h), or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess cash collateral and other credit support, including without
limitation, as a result of a reallocation pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (d); provided, however, (x) cash collateral and other credit support shall not be released if a Default or Event of Default exists (and
following application as provided in this subsection may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 10.5.) and (y) if agreed in writing by each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and/or the Swingline Lender,
as applicable, such cash collateral and other credit support shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated exposure with respect to Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans. 

(g) Purchase of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the
Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to 

  
 - 52 -









 
an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6.(b). No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist
in finding an Eligible Assignee. In addition, any Lender who is a Non-Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment via an
assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6.(b). In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an
appropriate Assignment and Acceptance and, notwithstanding Section 12.6.(b), an assignment fee in the amount of $7,500 shall be paid by such Defaulting Lender or, if paid by the Borrower or any assignee for the account of such Defaulting
Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall promptly reimburse the Borrower or such assignee therefor. 
 (h)
Termination of Defaulting Lender’s Commitments. During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may terminate in full the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender by giving notice to such Defaulting Lender and the
Administrative Agent (such termination, a “Defaulting Lender Termination”) so long as on the effective date of such Defaulting Lender Termination and after giving effect thereto and to any repayment of Revolving Loans in connection
therewith: (i) no Default or Event of Default exists (unless the Requisite Lenders otherwise consent to such Defaulting Lender Termination), (ii) no Revolving Loans shall be outstanding (other than any Revolving Loans being borrowed on
such effective date after the effectiveness of such Defaulting Lender Termination), and (iii) the sum of (x) the Letter of Credit Liabilities, and (y) the outstanding principal amount of Swingline Loans, shall not exceed the aggregate
Commitments of all Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders. Each such notice shall specify the effective date of such Defaulting Lender Termination (the “Defaulting Lender Termination Date”), which shall be not less than 5 Business Days
(or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and such Defaulting Lender) after the date on which such notice is delivered to such Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent. On each such Defaulting Lender Termination Date,
(i) the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender shall be reduced to zero, (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” hereunder (provided that any Defaulting Lender shall continue to be entitled to the indemnification
provisions contained herein, but only with respect to matters arising prior to the applicable Defaulting Lender Termination Date), (iii) the Commitments of all other Lenders shall remain unchanged and the Commitment Percentages of such other
Lenders shall be recalculated and (iv) the Commitment Percentages of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans will be reallocated among the Lenders (other than the Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their recalculated
Commitment Percentages after giving effect to the Defaulting Lender Termination. 
 (i) Cure. If the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, the Administrative
Agent will so notify the Lenders, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender, will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the
other Lenders and make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the interest of the Lenders in the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their
respective Commitment Percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such
Lender was a Defaulting Lender. 
 (j) No Waiver or Release of Claims. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth herein, no actions taken by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as described in this Section 3.9, and no cure by a Defaulting Lender as described in paragraph (i) above, shall
constitute a waiver, release or satisfaction (except, in the case of any such cure, as may be agreed in 

  
 - 53 -









 
writing by the affected parties in connection with such cure) of any claim or action that any party hereunder may have as a result of such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 3.10. Taxes; Foreign Lenders. 
 (a) Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes. If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will: 

(i) pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or
deducted; 
 (ii) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other
documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and 
 (iii) pay to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the
net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been
required. 
 (b) Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for its account or the account of the Issuing Bank or respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary
evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders for any incremental Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower. 

(c) Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or Participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other
than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes becomes a party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or
Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or Participant
establishing that payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax and (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code. Each such
Lender or Participant shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, (x) deliver further copies of such forms or other appropriate certifications on or before the date that any such forms expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any
event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and (y) obtain such extensions of the time for filing, and renew such forms and certifications thereof, as may be necessary to preserve such
exemption to the extent it is legally able to do so or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall not be required to pay any amount pursuant to subsection (a) above to any Lender or
Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the Borrower is a resident for tax purposes or the Administrative Agent, if it is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that in which the
Borrower is a resident for tax purposes, if such Lender, 

  
 - 54 -









 
Participant or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, fails to comply with the requirements of this subsection. If any such Lender or Participant, to the extent it may lawfully do so, fails to
deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from such payment to such Lender such amounts as are required by the Internal Revenue Code. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Administrative
Agent did not properly withhold or backup withhold, as the case may be, any tax or other amount from payments made to or for the account of any Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and
interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section, and costs and expenses (including all reasonable fees and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel and the
allocated cost of internal legal services and all disbursements of internal counsel) of the Administrative Agent. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments, repayment of all Obligations and the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the
Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including additional amounts paid by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, 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 the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over pursuant to this Section (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be
construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

(e) FATCA Compliance. If a payment made to the Issuing Bank or a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject
to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if the Issuing Bank or such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), the
Issuing Bank or such Lender, as applicable, shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (i) a certification signed by the chief financial officer, principal accounting officer, treasurer or controller, and (ii) other
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, sufficient for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that the Issuing Bank or such Lender has complied
with such applicable reporting requirements. 
 (f) USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the
Administrative Agent to comply with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56), prior to any Lender or Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the
Administrative Agent may request, and such Lender or Participant shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent
to comply with federal law.

 ARTICLE IV. YIELD PROTECTION,
ETC. 
 Section 4.1. Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy. 

(a) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or any Participant determines that any Regulatory Change affects or would
affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such Participant, or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant, as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Commitments or its
making or maintaining Loans or participating in Letters of Credit below the rate which such Lender or such Participant or such corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant could have achieved but for such compliance (taking into account
the policies of such Lender or such Participant or such corporation with regard to capital), then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Participant additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such Participant or such
corporation controlling such Lender or such Participant to the extent that such Lender or such Participant determines such increase in capital is allocable to such Lender’s or such Participant’s obligations hereunder. 

(b) Additional Costs. In addition to, and not in limitation (but in any event without duplication) of the
immediately preceding subsection (a), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such
Lender that it determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or its Commitments (such increases in costs
and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other
Loan Documents in respect of any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans or its Commitments (other than Excluded Taxes) for any of such LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such
Lending Office or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any other
category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans is determined to the extent utilized when determining LIBOR for such Loans) relating to any
extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including, without
limitation, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder). 
 (c) Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans and
LIBOR Margin Loans. If by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans and/or the obligation of a Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote to make LIBOR Margin Loans hereunder shall
be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6. shall apply). 
 (d) Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of
any Regulatory Change there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any tax, reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to


  
 - 56 -









 
Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Bank of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or
purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank or, in the case of such Lender, to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Bank or such Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Bank or such Lender for such increased costs or
reductions in amount. 
 (e) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the
Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, each Lender, and each Participant, as the case may be, agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such
Participant to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Participant to give
such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder (and in the case of a Lender, to the Administrative Agent and (ii) in no event shall the Borrower be liable for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to
receipt of such notice). The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and each Participant, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of the Issuing Bank, a Lender or a Participant to the Administrative Agent
as well) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and amount of each request for compensation under this Section. Absent manifest error, determinations by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender of the effect of
any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith. Amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be due not later than 10 days after receipt by the Borrower
of such certificate. 
 Section 4.2. Suspension of LIBOR Loans and LIBOR Margin Loans. 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:

 (a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive)
that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as
provided herein or is otherwise unable to determine LIBOR; 
 (b) the Administrative Agent
reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined will
not adequately and fairly cover the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period; or 
 (c) any Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote with respect to a LIBOR Margin Loan reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that LIBOR will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining such LIBOR Margin Loan; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give the
Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, (i) the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans
and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either 

  
 - 57 -









 
prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan and (ii) in the case of clause (c) above, no Lender that has outstanding a Bid Rate Quote with respect to a LIBOR Margin Loan
shall be under any obligation to make such Loan. 
 Section 4.3. Illegality. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, (a) if any Lender shall reasonably determine (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder and/or (b) if any Lender that has an outstanding Bid Rate Quote shall reasonably determine
(which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Margin Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such
notice to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended and/or such Lender’s obligation to make LIBOR Margin Loans shall be suspended,
in each case, until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Margin Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6. shall be applicable). 
 Section 4.4. Compensation. 
 The Borrower shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine to be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any loss (excluding
lost profits from the Applicable Margin), cost or expense attributable to: 
 (a) any payment or
prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period
for such Loan; or 
 (b) any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without
limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article 5.2. to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan or a Bid Rate Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR
Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation. 
 Not in limitation of the foregoing,
such compensation shall include, without limitation, (i) in the case of a LIBOR Loan or a LIBOR Margin Loan, an amount equal to the then present value of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Margin
Loan for the remainder of the Interest Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Margin Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Margin Loan for the same period if LIBOR were set on
the date on which such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Margin Loan was repaid, prepaid or Converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR Loan or LIBOR Margin Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using
as a discount rate LIBOR quoted on such date and (ii) in the case of an Absolute Rate Loan, the sum of such losses (excluding lost profits) and expenses as the Lender or Designated Lender who made such an Absolute Rate Loan may reasonably incur
by reason of such prepayment, including without limitation any losses or expenses incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a statement in reasonable detail
setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Reasonable determinations by the Administrative Agent of such compensation shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes. Amounts


  
 - 58 -









 
payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be due not later than 10 days after receipt by the Borrower of such statement. 
 Section 4.5. Affected Lenders. 
 If (a) a Lender
requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.10. or 4.1., and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, or (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall
be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(c), 4.2. or 4.3. but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, or (c) a Lender does not vote in favor of any amendment, modification or waiver, to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document which, pursuant to Section 12.7., requires the vote of such Lender, and the Requisite Lenders shall have voted in favor of such amendment, modification or waiver then, so long as there does not then exist
any Default or Event of Default (other than any Default or Event of Default that is the subject of such waiver), the Borrower may either (i) demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender
shall promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.6.(b) for a purchase price equal to (x) the aggregate principal balance of all Loans then owing to the Affected
Lender, plus (y) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the Affected Lender under Section 2.4.(j) that have not been repaid, plus (z) any accrued but unpaid interest and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the
Affected Lender, or any other amount as may be mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee or (ii) pay to the Affected Lender the aggregate amounts described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) in full payment of all
Obligations due to such Lender, whereupon the Commitment of such Affected Lender shall terminate and such Affected Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (except
such rights in respect of indemnity and other contingent obligations that by their express terms survive the termination of this Agreement). Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the
replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender nor any Titled Agent be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in
finding an Eligible Assignee. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders.
The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10.,
4.1. or 4.4.) with respect to any period up to the date of replacement. 
 Section 4.6. Treatment of Affected Loans. 

(a) If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans
shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2. or Section 4.3. then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR
Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 4.1.(c), Section 4.2., or Section 4.3. on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such
Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1., Section 4.2. or Section 4.3. that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist: 

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments
of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and 

  
 - 59 -









 (ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by
such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans. 

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in
Section 4.1.(c) or 4.3. that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans
made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after
giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

(b) If the obligation of a Lender to make LIBOR Margin Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1.(c) or 4.2.
and such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain an existing LIBOR Margin Loan in effect, then the LIBOR Margin Loans of such Lender shall be automatically due and payable on such date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower by written
notice with a copy to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 4.7. Change of Lending Office. 

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.2. or 4.3. to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results
provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined in good faith by such Lender. 

Section 4.8. Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. 

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded
LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period;
provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

 ARTICLE VI. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Section 6.1. Representations and Warranties. 
 In order
to induce the Administrative Agent and each Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans and, in the case of the Issuing Bank, to issue Letters of Credit, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and each Lender as follows: 
 (a) Organization; Power; Qualification. Each of PPI, the Borrower, the
other Subsidiaries and the other Loan Parties is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority
to own or lease its respective properties and to carry on its respective business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other legal entity, and
authorized to do business, in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization and where the failure to be so qualified or authorized could reasonably be expected
to have, in each instance, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Ownership Structure. Part I of
Schedule 6.1.(b) is, as of the Agreement Date, a complete and correct list of all Subsidiaries of each of PPI and the Borrower setting forth for each such Subsidiary, (i) the jurisdiction of organization of such Subsidiary, (ii) each
Person holding any Equity Interests in such Subsidiary, (iii) the nature of the Equity Interests held by each Person holding an Equity Interest in such Subsidiary, (iv) the percentage of ownership of such Subsidiary represented by such
Equity Interests and (v) whether such Subsidiary is a Material Subsidiary or Significant Subsidiary (or would have constituted a Significant Subsidiary had it not qualified as an Excluded Subsidiary). Except as disclosed in such Schedule, as of
the Agreement Date, (A) each of PPI, the Borrower, and their respective Subsidiaries owns free and clear of all Liens, and has the unencumbered right to vote, all outstanding Equity Interests in each Person shown to be held by it on such
Schedule and (B) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each such Person organized as a corporation is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. As of the Agreement Date, Part II of Schedule 6.1.(b) correctly sets
forth all Unconsolidated Affiliates of each of PPI and the Borrower, including the correct legal name of such 

  
 - 63 -









 
Person, the type of legal entity which each such Person is, and all Equity Interests in such Person held directly or indirectly by PPI or the Borrower. 

(c) Authorization of Loan Documents and Borrowings. The Borrower has the right and power, and has taken all
necessary action to authorize it, to borrow and obtain other extensions of credit hereunder. The Borrower and each other Loan Party has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to execute, deliver and perform each of
the Loan Documents and the Fee Letter to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Loan Documents and the Fee Letter to which the Borrower or any other Loan
Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of such Person and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with its respective terms, except as
the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal)
contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally. 
 (d) Compliance of
Loan Documents with Laws. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is a party and of the Fee Letter in accordance with their respective terms
and the borrowings and other extensions of credit hereunder do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both: (i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law (including all Environmental Laws)
relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the organizational documents of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or any material indenture, agreement or other
instrument to which the Borrower or any other Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its respective properties may be bound; or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now
owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower or any other Loan Party other than in favor of the Administrative Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank. 

(e) Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. PPI, the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each other Loan
Party is in compliance with each Governmental Approval applicable to it and in compliance with all other Applicable Law (including without limitation, Environmental Laws) relating to the Borrower, a Subsidiary or such other Loan Party except for
noncompliances which, and Governmental Approvals the failure to possess which, would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause a Default or Event of Default or have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(f) Title to Properties; Liens. As of the Agreement Date, Schedule 6.1.(f) sets forth all of the Properties owned
or leased by the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each other Loan Party and, for each such Property, indicates the current occupancy status of such Property, identifies each Eligible Property and each property that is a Multifamily Property,
Condominium Property or a Renovation Property and, if such Property is a Renovation Property, the status of completion of such Property. Each of the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each other Loan Party has good, marketable and legal title to,
or a valid leasehold interest in, its respective assets, except where any such failure does not have and would not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Agreement Date, there are no Liens against any assets of the
Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party except for Permitted Liens. 
 (g) Existing
Indebtedness. Schedule 6.1.(g) is, as of December 31, 2010, a complete and correct listing of all Indebtedness in each case, in excess of $10,000,000 in principal amount, of PPI, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries,
including without limitation, Guarantees of PPI, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and indicating whether such Indebtedness is Secured Indebtedness or 

  
 - 64 -









 
Unsecured Indebtedness and if such Indebtedness is Secured Indebtedness, a description of all of the property securing such Indebtedness. As of the Agreement Date, no event of default exists with
respect to any such Indebtedness. During the period from December 31, 2010 to the Agreement Date, no additional Indebtedness in excess of $10,000,000 has been incurred by PPI, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries except as set forth
on Schedule 6.1.(g). 
 (h) Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending (nor, to
the knowledge of the Borrower, are there any actions, suits or proceedings threatened) against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Loan Party or any of their respective property
in any court or before any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any other Governmental Authority which, (i) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth on Schedule 6.1.(h) or (ii) in any
manner draws into question the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the Fee Letter as of the Agreement Date. There are no strikes, slow downs, work stoppages or walkouts or other material labor disputes in progress or threatened
relating to PPI, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party which, in any case, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(i) Taxes. All federal, state and other material tax returns of PPI, the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each
other Loan Party required by Applicable Law to be filed have been duly filed, and all federal, state and other taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies upon, PPI, the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each other Loan Party and
their respective properties, income, profits and assets which are due and payable have been paid, except any such nonpayment or non-filing which is at the time permitted under Section 7.6. or otherwise could not reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. As of the Agreement Date, insofar as is known to the Borrower, none of the United States income tax returns of PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Loan Party is under audit. All charges, accruals and
reserves on the books of PPI, the Borrower, the other Subsidiaries and the other Loan Party in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are in accordance with GAAP, except where the failure to maintain such charges, accruals or reserves
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (j) Financial Statements. The
Borrower has furnished to each Lender copies of (i) the audited consolidated balance sheet of PPI for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, and the related audited consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and
shareholders’ equity for the fiscal year ending on such date, with the opinion thereon of Deloitte & Touche LLP, and (ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of PPI for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2010, and
the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity of PPI for the three fiscal quarter period ended on such date. Such financial statements (including in each case related schedules and notes) are
complete and correct and present fairly in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved, the consolidated financial position of PPI and the results of operations and the cash flow for such
periods (subject, as to interim statements, to changes resulting from normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of notes thereto). None of PPI, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries has on the Agreement Date any material
contingent liabilities, liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual or long-term commitments or unrealized or forward anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments that would be required to be set forth in its financial statements or in the
notes thereto, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in said financial statements. 
 (k) No

other Loan Parties is Solvent. 

  
 - 65 -









 (l)        ERISA. 

(i) Each Benefit Arrangement is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Internal
Revenue Code and other Applicable Laws, except where any failure to so comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except with respect to Multiemployer Plans, each Qualified Plan (A) has received a favorable
determination from the Internal Revenue Service applicable to such Qualified Plan’s current remedial amendment cycle (as defined in Revenue Procedure 2007-44 or “2007-44” for short), (B) has timely filed for a favorable
determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service during its staggered remedial amendment cycle (as defined in 2007-44) and such application is currently being processed by the Internal Revenue Service, (C) had filed for a determination
letter prior to its “GUST remedial amendment period” (as defined in 2007-44) and received such determination letter and the staggered remedial amendment cycle first following the GUST remedial amendment period for such Qualified Plan has
not yet expired, or (D) is maintained under a prototype plan and may rely upon a favorable opinion letter issued by the Internal Revenue Service with respect to such prototype plan. To the best knowledge of PPI and the Borrower, nothing has
occurred which would cause the loss of its reliance on each Qualified Plan’s favorable determination letter or opinion letter. 
 (ii) With respect to any Benefit Arrangement that is a retiree welfare benefit arrangement, all material amounts have been accrued on the applicable ERISA Group’s financial statements in accordance
with FASB ASC 715. The “benefit obligation” of all Plans does not exceed the “fair market value of plan assets” for such Plans by more than $10,000,000 all as determined by and with such terms defined in accordance with FASB ASC
715. 
 (iii) Except as could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to
have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) no ERISA Event has occurred or is expected to occur; (ii) there are no pending, or to the best knowledge of PPI and the Borrower, threatened, claims, actions or lawsuits or other action by any
Governmental Authority, plan participant or beneficiary with respect to a Benefit Arrangement; (iii) there are no violations of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Benefit Arrangement; and (iv) no member of the ERISA
Group has engaged in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, in connection with any Plan, that would subject any member of the ERISA Group to a tax
on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (m) Absence of Defaults. None of PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Loan Party is in default under its certificate or articles of incorporation or formation, bylaws, partnership
agreement or other similar organizational documents, and no event has occurred, which has not been remedied, cured or waived: (i) which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default; or (ii) which constitutes, or which with the passage of
time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute, a default or event of default by, PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Loan Party under any agreement (other than this Agreement) or judgment, decree or order to which any such
Person is a party or by which any such Person or any of its respective properties may be bound where such default or event of default is reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

(n) Environmental Laws. Each of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the other Loan Parties has obtained all
Governmental Approvals which are required under Environmental Laws and is in compliance with all terms and conditions of such Governmental Approvals which the failure to obtain or 

  
 - 66 -









 
to comply with could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except for any of the following matters that could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,
(i) the Borrower is not aware of, and has not received notice of, any past, present, or future events, conditions, circumstances, activities, practices, incidents, actions, or plans which, with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and each
other Loan Party, may interfere with or prevent compliance or continued compliance with Environmental Laws, or may give rise to any common-law or legal liability, or otherwise form the basis of any claim, action, demand, suit, proceeding, hearing,
study, or investigation, based on or related to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment, storage, disposal, transport, or handling or the emission, discharge, release or threatened release into the environment, of any Hazardous
Material; and (ii) there is no civil, criminal, or administrative action, suit, demand, claim, hearing, notice, or demand letter, notice of violation, investigation, or proceeding pending or, to the Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against
the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and each other Loan Party relating in any way to Environmental Laws. 
 (o)
Investment Company; Etc. None of PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary, or any other Loan Party is (i) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (ii) subject to any other Applicable Law which purports to regulate or restrict its ability to borrow money or obtain other extensions of credit or to consummate the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or to perform its obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party. 
 (p) Margin
Stock. None of PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary, or any other Loan Party is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of
buying or carrying “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

(q) Affiliate Transactions. Except as permitted by Section 9.10., none of PPI, the Borrower, any other
Subsidiary, or any other Loan Party is a party to any transaction with any Affiliate. 
 (r) Intellectual
Property. Each of the Loan Parties and each other Subsidiary owns or has the right to use, under valid license agreements or otherwise, all material patents, licenses, franchises, trademarks, trademark rights, service marks, service mark rights,
trade names, trade name rights, trade secrets and copyrights (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) necessary to the conduct of its businesses, without known conflict with any patent, license, franchise, trademark, trademark right,
service mark, service mark right, trade secret, trade name, copyright, or other proprietary right of any other Person, in any case where the failure to own or have the right to use such Intellectual Property, or where such conflict, could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. PPI, the Borrower, each other Subsidiary and each other Loan Party have taken all such steps as they deem reasonably necessary to protect their respective rights under and with respect to such
Intellectual Property, the absence of which in their respective businesses could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted by any Person with respect to the use of any such Intellectual Property by
PPI, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary, or challenging or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, the absence of which in their respective businesses could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. The use of such Intellectual Property by PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary and any other Loan Party does not infringe on the rights of any Person, subject to such claims and infringements as do not, in the aggregate,
give rise to any liabilities on the part of PPI, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(s) Business. As of the Agreement Date, PPI, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and the other Subsidiaries are
principally engaged in the business of owning, acquiring, renovating, developing 

  
 - 67 -









 
and managing Multifamily Properties and Condominium Properties, including Mixed-Use Projects, together with other business activities reasonably related or incidental thereto. 

(t) Broker’s Fees. No broker’s or finder’s fee, commission or similar compensation will be payable
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby. No other similar fees or commissions will be payable by any Loan Party for any other services rendered to PPI, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary ancillary to the
transactions contemplated hereby. 
 (u) Accuracy and Completeness of Information. No written
information, report or other papers or data (excluding financial projections and other forward looking statements) furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or at the direction of, PPI, the Borrower or any of their
respective Subsidiaries in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement, contained any untrue statement of a fact material to the creditworthiness of PPI, the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or omitted to state a
material fact necessary in order to make such statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. All financial statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or

purchase PPI’s capital stock and the Borrower’s partnership interests so long as such use will not result in any of the Loans, Letters of Credit or other Obligations being considered to be “purpose credit” directly or indirectly
secured by margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System).

thereof by PPI, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Loan Party. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Subsidiaries and the other Loan Parties to, take promptly all actions reasonably available to it to prevent the imposition of

Section 7.12. Guarantors. 
 (a) Requirement to Become Guarantor. Within 30 days of any Person (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) becoming a Significant Subsidiary after the Agreement Date and at the time as any other
Subsidiary guarantees the Borrower’s obligations under the Cash Management Line Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent each of the following items, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:
(i) an Accession Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and (ii) the items that would have been delivered under subsections (iv), (vii) through (x), and (xiv) of Section 5.1.(a) if such Subsidiary had been a Guarantor on

Accession Agreement pursuant to this Section, as the case may be, such Subsidiary shall comply with the provisions of this Section. 
 (b)        Other Guarantors. 
 (i) The Borrower may, at its option, cause any Subsidiary that is not already a Guarantor to become a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent the items required to be delivered
under the immediately preceding subsection (a). 
 (ii) Notwithstanding
Section 10.1.(c)(i), if the Borrower determines that it has not satisfied the financial covenant set forth in Section 9.1.(e), but that such financial covenant would have been satisfied if one or more Subsidiaries that were not already
Guarantors had become a Guarantor in the manner described in the immediately preceding subsection (b)(i), the Borrower shall on the same day that such determination is first made by the Borrower notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such
determination and thereafter shall have a period of 10 Business Days to cause such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent those items required to be delivered under the immediately preceding subsection (a)
for such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries to become a Guarantor. If such items are delivered to the Administrative Agent within such time period, and if the inclusion of such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries as a Guarantor would cause such financial covenant to
be satisfied, such financial covenant shall be deemed to have been satisfied, and any resulting non-compliance cured, effective immediately prior to the first date as to which such non-compliance would have otherwise occurred, such that no Event of
Default shall be deemed to have arisen therefrom. 
 (c) Release of a Guarantor. Except for PPI, the
Borrower may request in writing that the Administrative Agent release, and upon receipt of such request the Administrative Agent shall release, a Guarantor from the Guaranty so long as: (i) such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the
Borrower in a transaction not prohibited by Section 9.7., or such Guarantor meets, or will meet simultaneously with its release from the Guaranty, all of the provisions of the definition of the term “Excluded Subsidiary” or such
Guarantor is not, or simultaneously with its release from the Guaranty will cease to be, a Significant Subsidiary or has obtained a loan secured by a mortgage on its principal Property; (ii) such Guarantor is


  
 - 72 -









 
not otherwise required to be a party to the Guaranty under the immediately preceding subsection (a); (iii) no Default or Event of Default shall then be in existence or would occur as a
result of such release, including without limitation, a Default or Event of Default resulting from a violation of any of the covenants contained in Section 9.1.; (iv) the representation and warranty set forth in Section 6.1.(k) shall
be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such release with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date; and (v) the Administrative Agent shall have received such written request at least 10 Business
Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior to the requested date of release. Delivery by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent of any such request shall constitute a representation by the Borrower that
the matters set forth in the preceding sentence (both as of the date of the giving of such request and as of the date of the effectiveness of such request) are true and correct with respect to such request. 

Section 7.13. REIT Status. 
 The Borrower shall cause PPI to maintain at all times its status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code.

number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for such Lender to comply with federal law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction

right, title and interest in and to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below). The balances from
time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities until applied by the Issuing Bank as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, funds held in
the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section. 
 (b)
Amounts on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such investments and

investments will be credited to and, subject to Section 10.6.(e), retained in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Letter of
Credit Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being
understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account. 

(c) If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the
Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the payment made by the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing
or the payee with respect to such presentment. 
 (d) If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent
may (and, if instructed by the Requisite Lenders, shall) in its (or their) discretion at any time and from time to time elect to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with
Section 10.5. 
 (e) So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit
in or credited to the Letter of Credit Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower
within 5 Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of amount of the credit balances in the Letter of Credit
Collateral Account as exceeds the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing at such time. When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative
Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account. 

  
 - 87 -









 (f) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time
such fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein. 

Section 10.7. Performance by Administrative Agent. 
 If the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, perform or attempt to perform such
covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount
reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

Section 10.8. Rights Cumulative. 
 The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders under this Agreement, each of the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any
rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other
power or right. 
 ARTICLE XI. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

 Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization. 

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual
representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the 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 the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set
forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite 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. Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the Administrative Agent duties
or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and similar terms in the Loan Documents with
reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable 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. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender, promptly upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the
financial statements, certificates, notices and other documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VIII. that the 

  
 - 88 -









 
Borrower is not otherwise required to deliver directly to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will 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 the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the 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. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the
Obligations), the 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; provided,
however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default
unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or
refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders. 
 Section 11.2. Administrative Agent’s Reliance. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the 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 as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the 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 the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel: (a) makes any warranty or representation to any Lender, the
Issuing Bank or any other Person, or shall be responsible to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the 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 the Borrower or other Persons, or to inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (c) shall be responsible to any
Lender or the Issuing Bank 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 or any collateral
covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of any recitals, statements,
certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (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


  
 - 89 -









 
given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan 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 as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. 

Section 11.3. Notice of Events of Default. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the
Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the
Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”. Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the
Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 
 Section 11.4. 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 the
case may be, as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the 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 the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Issuing Bank or the other Lenders. Further, the Administrative Agent and any
Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower and any other Loan Party for services in connection with this Agreement, or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Issuing Bank or the other Lenders. The Issuing
Bank and the Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the 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 the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. 
 Section 11.5. Approvals of Lenders. 
 All
communications from the 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, as appropriate, a brief summary of all oral information provided to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Except with respect to items
described in Section 12.7.(c) that require the consent by each of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or
determination of the 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


  
 - 90 -









 
under the express terms of the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

 Section 11.6. Lender Credit Decision, Etc. 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to the Issuing Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any
review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank or any Lender. Each of the Lenders
and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other
Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates,
and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan 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. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the 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. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the Loan 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, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents and
information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender or the Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into
possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that the Administrative Agent’s legal counsel in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to any Lender or the Issuing Bank. 
 Section 11.7. Indemnification of Administrative Agent. 

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the obligation of the 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, reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the 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, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however,
that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a


  
 - 91 -









 
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 (or all of
the Lenders, if expressly required hereunder) 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 the Administrative
Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the 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
the Administrative Agent) incurred by the 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, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability”
suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees)
shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent
that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the 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 and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any
Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment. 

Section 11.8. Successor Administrative Agent. 
 The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite
Lenders shall have the right to appoint 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 30
days after the current Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, 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. The appointment of any successor Administrative Agent by the Requisite Lenders or by the Administrative Agent shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be
subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender as a successor Administrative Agent). 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. Such successor Administrative Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any,
outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Administrative Agent, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Administrative Agent with respect to such Letters of
Credit. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI. 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. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior
written notice. 

  
 - 92 -









 Section 11.9. Titled Agents. 

Each of the Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agent (each a “Titled Agent”) in each such
respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles given to the Titled
Agents are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the use of such titles does not impose on the
Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

Section 12.3. Stamp, Intangible and Recording Taxes. 
 The Borrower will pay any and all stamp, excise, intangible, registration, recordation and similar taxes, fees or charges and shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender against any and all

Participant, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders exercised in their 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 other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or such Lender, or such Participant, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, 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 10.2., and although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. 
 Section 12.5. Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers. 
 (a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX

AGREES THAT THE FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA AND, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN FULTON COUNTY, GEORGIA, SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE

THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE FEE LETTER. THE BORROWER, THE ISSUING BANK AND EACH OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMIT AND CONSENT IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION
OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM
AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION. 
 (c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS
AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. 
 Section 12.6. Successors and Assigns. 
 (a)
Successors and Assigns 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 permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or

described in the immediately preceding subsection (A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding
balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified
in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $10,000,000 in the case of any assignment of a Commitment, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the
Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the
outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning Lender, as applicable, would be less than $10,000,000, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire amount of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it. 

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of a Bid Rate Loan.

 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the
extent required by clause (i)(B) of this subsection (b) and, in addition: 
 (A) the
consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate
of a Lender; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Commitment or an Affiliate of such a Lender; and 

  
 - 97 -









 (C) the consent of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Commitment. 
 (iv) Assignment and Acceptance; Notes. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation
fee of $4,500 for each assignment, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Details Form. If requested by the transferor Lender or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the
transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate. 

(v) No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the
Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No
such assignment shall be made to a natural person. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 4.4., 12.2. and 12.10. and the other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 12.11. with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with the immediately following subsection (d). 
 (c) Register. The Administrative Agent,
acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d)
Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s
Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that
(i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties 

  
 - 98 -









 
hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of any Loan Document described Section 12.7.(c) that adversely affects such Participant. Subject to the immediately following subsection (e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4. to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled
to the benefits of Section 12.4. as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3. as though it were a Lender. Upon request from the Administrative Agent, a Lender shall notify the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation hereunder. 
 (e) Limitations upon Participant
Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10. and 4.1. than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the
sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.10. unless the Borrower is
notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to comply with Section 3.10. as though it were a Lender. 

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its
rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (g) No
Registration. Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or
qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction. 

(h) Designated Lenders. Any Lender (each, a “Designating Lender”) may at any time while the Borrower has
been assigned an Investment Grade Rating from either S&P or Moody’s designate one Designated Lender to fund Bid Rate Loans on behalf of such Designating Lender subject to the terms of this subsection, and the provisions in the immediately
preceding subsections (b) and (d) shall not apply to such designation. No Lender may designate more than one Designated Lender. The parties to each such designation shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance a
Designation Agreement. Upon such receipt of an appropriately completed Designation Agreement executed by a Designating Lender and a designee representing that it is a Designated Lender, the Administrative Agent will accept such Designation Agreement
and give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (i) the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Designating Lender a Bid Rate Note payable to the order of the Designated Lender, (ii) from and after the effective date specified
in the Designation Agreement, the Designated Lender shall become a party to this Agreement with a right to make Bid Rate Loans on behalf of its Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.2. after the Borrower has accepted a Bid Rate Loan (or
portion thereof) of the Designating Lender, and (iii) the Designated Lender shall not be required to make payments with respect to any obligations in this Agreement except to the extent of excess cash flow of such Designated Lender which is not
otherwise required to repay obligations of such Designated 

  
 - 99 -









 
Lender which are then due and payable; provided, however, that regardless of such designation and assumption by the Designated Lender, the Designating Lender shall be and remain
obligated to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for each and every of the obligations of the Designating Lender and its related Designated Lender with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, any indemnification
obligations under Section 11.7. and any sums otherwise payable to the Borrower by the Designated Lender. Each Designating Lender shall serve as the agent of the Designated Lender and shall on behalf of, and to the exclusion of, the Designated
Lender: (i) receive any and all payments made for the benefit of the Designated Lender and (ii) give and receive all communications and notices and take all actions hereunder, including, without limitation, votes, approvals, waivers,
consents and amendments under or relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any such notice, communication, vote, approval, waiver, consent or amendment shall be signed by the Designating Lender as agent for the Designated Lender and
shall not be signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf and shall be binding on the Designated Lender to the same extent as if signed by the Designated Lender on its own behalf. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may rely
thereon without any requirement that the Designated Lender sign or acknowledge the same. No Designated Lender may assign or transfer all or any portion of its interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document, other than assignments to the
Designating Lender which originally designated such Designated Lender. The Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent each hereby agrees that it will not institute against any Designated Lender or join any other Person in instituting against
any Designated Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, until the later to occur of (x) one year and one day after the payment in full of the
latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Designated Lender and (y) the Termination Date. In connection with any such designation, the Designating Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such
designation in the amount of $3,500. 
 Section 12.7. Amendments and Waivers. 

(a) Generally. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, (i) any consent or approval required
or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, (ii) any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, (iii) the performance or observance by the Borrower, any other
Loan Party or any other Subsidiary of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document may be waived, and (iv) the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either
retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or the Administrative Agent at the written direction of the Requisite Lenders), and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written
consent of each Loan Party which is party thereto. 
 (b) Certain Requisite Lender Consents.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or waiver shall, unless in writing, and signed by Lenders having at least 66-2/3% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments, or if the Commitments have been terminated or reduced to zero, Lenders holding
at least 66-2/3% of the principal amount of the aggregate outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, amend or waive the provisions of Section 10.1.(m) (including any Default or Event of Default resulting under such Section).

 (c) Consent of Lenders Directly Affected. In addition to the foregoing requirements, no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing, and signed by each of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby (or by Administrative Agent at the written direction of such Lender), do any of the following: 

  
 - 100 -









 (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender (excluding any
increase as a result of an assignment of Commitments permitted under Section 12.6. and any increases contemplated under Section 2.16.) or subject such Lender to any additional obligations; 

(ii) reduce the principal of, or interest that has accrued or the rates of interest that will be charged
on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or other Obligations owing to such Lender (other than as a result of a waiver of the applicability of the Post-Default Rate); 

(iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable to such Lender hereunder; 

(iv) modify the definition of “Termination Date” (except in accordance with Section 2.13.)
or otherwise postpone any date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loans or for the payment of Fees or any other Obligations owing to such Lender or extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Termination
Date (except as permitted under Section 2.4.(b)) or, with respect to any Letter of Credit having an expiration date beyond the Termination Date as permitted by Section 2.4.(b), extend the expiration date of such Letter of Credit;

 (v) modify the definitions of “Commitment Percentage” or “Pro Rata Share”
(excluding as a result of any change in the aggregate amount of Commitments permitted under Sections 2.16., 3.9.(g) or 4.5.) or amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 3.2.; 

(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; 
 (vii) modify the
definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” or modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof; 

(viii) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty except as contemplated by
Section 7.12.(c); 
 (ix) waive a Default or Event of Default under Section 10.1.(a) or
(b); or 
 (x) amend, or waive the Borrower’s compliance with, Section 2.15.

 (d) Amendment of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc. No amendment, waiver or consent unless in
writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any
amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3. or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written
consent of the Swingline Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.4. or the obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take
such action, require the written consent of the Issuing Bank. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.
Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the 

  
 - 101 -









 
Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 Section 12.8. Nonliability of Administrative Agent and Lenders. 
 The relationship between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender. None of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower or any other Loan Party and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or
among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party. None of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations. 

Section 12.9. Confidentiality. 
 Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below) in accordance with its
customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices but in any event may make disclosure: (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) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any actual or proposed assignee, participant or other transferee in connection with a potential transfer
of any Commitment or participation therein as permitted hereunder, or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to PPI, the Borrower and any other Loan Party and their
respective obligations; (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings, or as otherwise required by Applicable Law; (d) to the
Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) in connection with the exercise of
any remedies under any Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result
of a breach of this Section actually known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender on
a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower except where the Administrative Agent or such Lender has reason to believe in the exercise of its good faith judgment that the source of such confidential
information breached a confidentiality obligation in disclosing such Information; (g) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any nationally recognized rating agency or regulatory or similar authority (including any
self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it; (h) to bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information
customarily found in such publications; (i) to any other party hereto; and (j) with the consent of the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose any such confidential information,
without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or in accordance with the regulatory compliance policy of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender. As used in this Section, the term “Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or 

  
 - 102 -









 
Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate; provided that, in the case of any such information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any
Affiliate after the date hereof, such information shall be assumed to be confidential and Private Information unless clearly identified at the time of delivery as Public Information or not confidential. 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 12.10. Indemnification. 

(a) The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank, the Lenders, all of the Affiliates of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any of the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an
“Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all of the following (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”): losses, costs, claims, penalties, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of
every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered
in connection therewith, but excluding Indemnified Costs indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.10. or 4.1. or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in
connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in
any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed
use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have
information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business operations of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower
and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection
with matters described in this clause (viii) to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or material breach of such Indemnified Party’s contractual obligations to the Borrower under this
Agreement, in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; (ix) any civil penalty or fine assessed by the OFAC against, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including counsel fees and
disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender as a result of conduct of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary that violates a sanction administered or
enforced by the OFAC; or (x) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal
Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action
to 

  
 - 103 -









 
cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its respective properties) (or the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and/or the Issuing Bank as successors to the Borrower) to be in compliance
with such Environmental Laws. 
 (b) The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall
apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party in such Indemnity Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all Indemnified Costs of any
Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents). This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity
Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively on
behalf of the Borrower), any account debtor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by any Governmental Authority. 

(c) This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding
filed by or against the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary. 
 (d) Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of
written notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability in respect of which indemnity may be sought by it hereunder, such Indemnified Party will notify the Borrower thereof, provided that the failure to give any such notice hereunder shall not affect
the obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Thereafter, such Indemnified Party and the Borrower shall consult, to the extent appropriate, with a view to minimizing the cost to the Borrower of its
obligations hereunder. In case any such Indemnified Party receives written notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability in respect of which indemnity may be sought by it hereunder, and it notifies the Borrower thereof, the Borrower will be
entitled to participate in the defense thereof, and to the extent that the Borrower may elect by notice delivered to such Indemnified Party promptly after receiving aforesaid notice from such Indemnified Party, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel reasonably satisfactory at all times to the Indemnified Party; provided that if the parties against whom any loss, claim, damage or liability arises include both the Indemnified Party and the Borrower, and such Indemnified Party shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it or other Indemnified Parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Borrower and may conflict therewith, such Indemnified Party or Parties shall have the
right to select separate counsel to assume such legal defense and otherwise to participate in the defense of such loss, claims, damage or liability on behalf of such Indemnified Party or Parties. Upon receipt of notice from the Borrower to such
Indemnified Party of the Borrower’s election so to assume the defense of such loss, claim, damage or liability and approval of counsel by such Indemnified Party, the Borrower shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party for any legal expenses
subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) such Indemnified Party shall have employed counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the proviso to the
immediately preceding sentence, (ii) the Borrower shall not have employed and continue to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party to represent such Indemnified Party, or (iii) the Borrower shall have approved the
employment of counsel for such Indemnified Party at the Borrower’s expense. 
 (e) All out-of-pocket fees
and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not
entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such
Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder. 

  
 - 104 -









 (f) Subject to the immediately preceding subsection (d), an Indemnified
Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all Indemnified Costs incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be
reimbursed by the Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder
to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if (i) the Borrower is required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Borrower has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to
such Indemnified Party that the Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise
any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding
without the prior written consent of the Borrower where (x) no monetary relief is sought against such Indemnified Party in such Indemnity Proceeding or (y) there is an allegation of a violation of law by such Indemnified Party. 

(g) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, the
Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law. 
 (h) The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition
to, and not in substitution of, any of the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party. 

Section 12.11. Termination; Survival. 
 This Agreement shall terminate at such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated or expired, (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated, been cancelled or have expired (other than
Letters of Credit the expiration dates of which extend beyond the Termination Date as permitted under Section 2.4.(b) and in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such Section or been cancelled), (c) none of the
Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and the Issuing Bank is no longer obligated under this Agreement to issue Letters of Credit and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the
following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full; provided, however, if on the Termination Date or any other date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event
of Default or otherwise) any Letters of Credit remain outstanding, then the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit, including without limitation, the terms of
Section 2.14. and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under Section 2.4.(d), shall remain in effect until all such Letters of Credit have expired, have been cancelled or have otherwise terminated. The indemnities to which the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.10., 4.1., 4.4., 11.7., 12.2. and 12.10. and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of
Section 12.5., shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events
arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this
Agreement. 

  
 - 105 -









 Section 12.12. Severability of Provisions. 

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to
be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in full force as though the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable
provision had never been part of the Loan Documents. 
 Section 12.13. GOVERNING LAW. 

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO
CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE. 
 Section 12.14. Counterparts.

Attorney-In-Fact. The Designated Lender hereby appoints the Designating Lender as the Designated Lender’s agent and attorney-in-fact, and grants to the Designating Lender an irrevocable power of attorney, to receive any and all payments to
be made for the benefit of the Designated Lender under the Credit Agreement, to deliver and receive all notices and other communications under the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents and to exercise on the Designated Lender’s behalf all
rights to vote and to grant and make approvals, waivers, consents or amendments to or under the Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents. Any document executed by the Designating Lender on the Designated Lender’s behalf in connection with

Designated Lender hereunder or thereunder, provided that the Designating Lender shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same
results from the Designated Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

 EXHIBIT D 
 FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY 
 THIS AMENDED AND RESTATED
GUARANTY dated as of January 21, 2011 (this “Guaranty”) executed and delivered by each of the undersigned and the other Persons from time to time party hereto pursuant to the execution and delivery of an Accession Agreement in the
form of Annex I hereto (all of the undersigned, together with such other Persons each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) in favor of WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Wells Fargo”), successor in
interest to Wachovia Bank, National Association, in its capacity as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders under that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of January 21, 2011 (as
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Post Apartment Homes, L.P. (the “Borrower”), the Administrative Agent, the financial institutions party thereto and
their assignees under Section 12.6. thereof (the “Lenders”), Wells Fargo, in its capacity as Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender (the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, and the Issuing Bank, each individually a
“Guarantied Party” and collectively, the “Guarantied Parties”) and the other parties thereto. 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Guarantied Parties have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit
Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, certain Guarantors previously executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent that
certain Guaranty dated as of April 28, 2006 (as amended and in effect immediately prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Guaranty”); 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower, each Guarantor and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an
integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Guarantied Parties through their collective efforts; 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Guarantied Parties making
such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s obligations to the Guarantied Parties on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

 WHEREAS, the amendment and restatement of the Existing Guaranty effected by each Guarantor’s execution
and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties’ making, and continuing to make, such financial accommodations to the Borrower. 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each
Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees that the Existing Guaranty is amended and restated in its entirety as follows: 

  
 D-1









 Section 1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely,
irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties the due and punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all of the following (collectively referred to as the “Guarantied Obligations”):
(a) all indebtedness and obligations owing by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party under or in connection with the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document to which the Borrower or
such other Loan Party is a party, including without limitation, the repayment of all principal of the Revolving Loans, Bid Rate Loans, Swingline Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and the payment of all interest, fees, charges, attorneys’
fees and other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party thereunder or in connection therewith; (b) any and all extensions, renewals, modifications, amendments or substitutions of the foregoing; (c) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, that are incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party in the enforcement of any of the foregoing or any
obligation of such Guarantor hereunder; and (d) all other Obligations. 
 Section 2. Guaranty of
Payment and Not of Collection. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment, and not of collection, and a debt of each Guarantor for its own account. Accordingly, the Guarantied Parties shall not be obligated or required before enforcing this Guaranty
against any Guarantor: (a) to pursue any right or remedy the Guarantied Parties may have against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or commence any suit or other proceeding against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any
other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; or (c) to make demand of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or
to enforce or seek to enforce or realize upon any collateral security held by the Guarantied Parties which may secure any of the Guarantied Obligations. 
 Section 3. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the same, regardless of
any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Guarantied Parties with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and
unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including
without limitation, the following (whether or not such Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof): 

(a)(i) any change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the Guarantied Obligations,
(ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations, (iii) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure from or other indulgence with respect to, the Credit Agreement, any
other Loan Document, or any other document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guarantied Obligations, or (iv) any waiver, renewal, extension, addition, or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action or inaction under or in
respect of, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Guarantied Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied
Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing; 

  
 D-2









 (b) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of
the other Loan Documents or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing; 

(c) any furnishing to the Guarantied Parties of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, or any sale, exchange,
release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of the Obligations; 
 (d) any
settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, or any subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of
any other liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; 
 (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any
court, in any such proceeding; 
 (f) any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any
other Person which may adversely affect such Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover payments made under this Guaranty; 
 (g) any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Obligations; 

(h) any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the liabilities
of the Borrower to the Guarantied Parties, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid; 
 (i)
any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the exercise thereof; 

(j) any defense, set off, claim or counterclaim (other than indefeasible payment and performance in full) which any at
any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower, any other Loan party or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party; 

(k) any change in corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; 

(l) any statement, representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or
any other Loan Party under any Loan Document, or any amendment hereto or thereto, proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any respect; or 
 (m) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment and performance in full or release or
termination of the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder as provided by the terms of the Credit Agreement). 

  
 D-3









 Section 4. Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations. The
Guaranteed Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without discharging any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3. and may
otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that
may accrue on any of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of
the Guarantied Obligations; (d) release any Loan Party or other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other
Loan Party or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Guarantied Parties shall elect. 

Section 5. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby makes to the Administrative Agent and the
other Guarantied Parties all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full.

 Section 6. Covenants. Each Guarantor will comply with all covenants that which the Borrower is to
cause such Guarantor to comply with under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 

Section 7. Waiver. Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives notice of
acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise
might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder. 
 Section 8. Inability to
Accelerate Loan. If the Guarantied Parties or any of them are prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any one of the Guarantied Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the
Administrative Agent and/or the other Guarantied Parties shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred. 

Section 9. Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations. If claim is ever made on the Administrative Agent or any
other Guarantied Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party repays all or part of said amount by reason
of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party with any such
claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof
or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument 

  
 D-4









 
evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the
same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party. 
 Section 10. Subrogation. Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of the Borrower, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the
Borrower; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action such Guarantor may have against the
Borrower arising by reason of any payment or performance by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor
on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to
be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.

 Section 11. Payments Free and Clear. All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder, whether of
principal, interest, fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes, subject to Section 3.10. of the Credit Agreement), and if such
Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by any Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding, subject to Section 3.10. of the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders such
additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required. 

Section 12. Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents
or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Guarantor hereby authorizes each Guarantied Party and each Participant, at any time while an Event of Default exists, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender, the Issuing Bank or a Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders, exercised in their 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 other indebtedness at any time
held or owing by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender, or such Participant or any affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account
of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other
rights with respect to its participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 13. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Guarantied Parties that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Guarantor


  
 D-5









 
of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from the Borrower (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and
junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations. If a Specified Event of Default shall exist, then no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower on
account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full. 
 Section 14. Avoidance Provisions. It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation
hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) to be avoidable or unenforceable against
such Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or
fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such
Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any
Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the
Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Guarantied Parties), to be subject to avoidance
under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be
subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Guarantied Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance
Provisions. 
 Section 15. Right of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves
that, if any Guarantor shall make an Excess Payment (as defined below), such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s Contribution Share (as defined below) of such
Excess Payment. The payment obligations of any Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or
terminated, and none of the Guarantors shall exercise any right or remedy under this Section against any other Guarantor until such Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. This Section shall not be deemed
to affect any right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution that any Guarantor may have under Applicable Law against the Borrower in respect of any payment of Guarantied Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights of
contribution against any Guarantor shall terminate from and after such time, if ever, that such Guarantor shall cease to be a Guarantor in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents. For purposes of this Section, the following
terms have the indicated meanings: 

  
 D-6









 (a) “Excess Payment” means the amount paid by any Guarantor in
excess of its Ratable Share of any Guarantied Obligations. 
 (b) “Ratable Share” means, for any
Guarantor in respect of any payment of Obligations, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such payment of Guarantied Obligations of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and
properties exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by which
the aggregate present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of all of the Loan Parties exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding
the obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder) of the Loan Parties; provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the Ratable Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any payment of Obligations, any Guarantor that became a
Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such
Guarantor in connection with such payment. 
 (c) “Contribution Share” means, for any Guarantor in
respect of any Excess Payment made by any other Guarantor, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) as of the date of such Excess Payment of (i) the amount by which the aggregate present fair salable value of all of its assets and properties
exceeds the amount of all debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder) to (ii) the amount by which the aggregate
present fair salable value of all assets and other properties of the Loan Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment exceeds the amount of all of the debts and liabilities (including contingent, subordinated, unmatured, and unliquidated
liabilities, but excluding the obligations of the Loan Parties) of the Loan Parties other than the maker of such Excess Payment; provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the Contribution Shares of the Guarantors in respect
of any Excess Payment, any Guarantor that became a Guarantor subsequent to the date of any such Excess Payment shall be deemed to have been a Guarantor on the date of such Excess Payment and the financial information for such Guarantor as of the
date such Guarantor became a Guarantor shall be utilized for such Guarantor in connection with such Excess Payment. 
 Section 16. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and of all other
circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither of the Administrative Agent nor any other
Guarantied Party shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks. 
 Section 17. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED,
IN SUCH STATE. 

  
 D-7









 SECTION 18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

(a) EACH GUARANTOR, AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS
HEREOF, ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SUCH GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTES WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE
PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY
COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE
AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 (B) EACH GUARANTOR,
AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES BY ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, HEREBY AGREES THAT THE FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW
YORK, NEW YORK SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM. EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE GUARANTIED PARTIES EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH
CLAIMS OR DISPUTES. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT
TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY
OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION. 
 (C) THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY. 

  
 D-8









 Section 19. Loan Accounts. The Administrative Agent and each
other Guarantied Party may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement, and in the
case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of such Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed conclusive evidence of amounts and other matters set forth
herein, absent manifest error. The failure of the Administrative Agent or other Guarantied Party to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder. 

Section 20. Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other
Guarantied Party in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party of any
such right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy. 
 Section 21. Termination. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect with respect to each Guarantor until indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations and the other
Obligations and the termination or cancellation of the Credit Agreement in accordance with its terms. 

Section 22. Successors and Assigns. Each reference herein to the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied
Party shall be deemed to include such Person’s respective successors and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference
herein to each Guarantor shall be deemed to include such Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding. The Guarantied Parties may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement,
assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation, or grant or sell participations in any Guarantied Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor and without releasing, discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder. Subject to Section 12.9. of the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Administrative Agent and any other Guarantied Party to any Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Assignee or
Participant) of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor. No Guarantor may assign or transfer its obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other
transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void. 
 Section 23. Joint
and Several Obligations. The Obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be joint and several, and accordingly, each guarantor confirms that it is liable for the full amount of the “Guarantied Obligations” and all of the obligations
and liabilities of each of the other Guarantors hereunder.
