WHEREAS, Borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Regions Bank, as agent, are parties to that certain Credit Agreement dated
November 19, 2010 (as amended by that certain First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated March 9, 2011, the “Existing Credit Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, Borrower, Lenders and Agent have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety as, and in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions, set forth
herein; and 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the recitals herein and mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the
parties hereto hereby covenant and agree as follows:

Section 1.1    Definitions. 
 In addition to terms defined elsewhere herein, the following terms shall have the following meanings for the purposes of this Agreement: 

“Actual Costs” means the amount that Borrower or any other Obligor has actually expended (to the extent such
expenditures shall ultimately constitute costs of sales in accordance with GAAP) for the acquisition of any Property. 

“Additional Costs” has the meaning given to that term in Section 4.1. 

“Additional Lender” has the meaning given to such term in Section 2.11(b)(i). 

“Adjusted EBITDA” means as of any date of determination the sum of (a) EBITDA of the Borrower for the immediately
preceding calendar quarter less (b) the Capital Reserves for such period. 
 “Adjusted NOI” means,
for any period, (a) NOI from all Properties (or, in the case of the definition of Borrowing Base Value and Implied Debt Service Coverage Ratio, Borrowing Base Properties) for such period, less (b) Capital Reserves attributable to such
Property (or, in the case of the definition of Borrowing Base Value and Implied Debt Service Coverage Ratio, Borrowing Base Properties) for such period. 
 “Adjusted Total Asset Value” means as of any date of determination the sum of (a) Total Asset Value less (b) the value of assets (determined in a manner consistent with

 “Affiliate” means, as to any Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or

possession directly or indirectly of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities or by contract or otherwise. 

“Agent” means Regions Bank, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders under the terms of this Agreement,

required to be made under this subsection for any reason, including without limitation, the occurrence of any of the Events of Default described in Sections 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), each Lender shall fund its participation interest (regardless of whether
the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 5.2 are then satisfied, whether or not the Borrower has submitted a Notice of Borrowing and whether or not the Commitments are then in effect, any Event of


  
 38 









 
Default exists or all the Loans have been accelerated) by paying the proceeds thereof to the Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds. 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 Effective 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 to 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). Each Lender acknowledges that its 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 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(g) or 10.1(h)) 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 Agent, any Lender or the Borrower or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Upon the receipt by Swingline Lender of any payment in respect of any
Swingline Loan, Swingline Lender shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired and funded a participation therein under this Section 2.2(e) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment; provided, however, that in
the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it. 

Section 2.3    Letters of Credit. 

(a) Letters of Credit.    Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including
Section 2.13), the Issuing Lender, 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 Maturity Date
one or more Letters of Credit up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount that will not result in the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Exposure exceeding the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount. 

  
 39 









 (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 Lender and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the
amount of any Letter of Credit be less than $300,000, or (ii) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the date that is (A) one (1) year from the issuance date of such Letter of Credit (other than evergreen letters of
credit), or (B) more than one (1) year beyond the Maturity Date. 
 (c) Requests for Issuance of
Letters of Credit.    The Borrower shall give the Issuing Lender and the Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) at least five (5) Business Days 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 (i) the proposed initial Stated Amount, (ii) the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and (iii) the proposed expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary letter of credit
application forms as requested from time to time by the Issuing Lender. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and subject to Section 2.13 and the other terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including, without limitation, the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V, and Issuing Lender has not received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or the Borrower, at least one (1) Business
Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not be satisfied, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the
requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary. The Issuing Lender 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 Lender from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the
Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Lender as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to such beneficiary in respect of such
demand; provided, however, the Issuing Lender’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 unconditionally and
irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit on or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to the
beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. Upon receipt by the Issuing Lender of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Lender shall promptly pay to each Lender that
has acquired and funded a participation therein under the second sentence of Section 

  
 40 









 
2.3(i) such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned,
such Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it. 
 (e) Manner of Reimbursement.   Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in Section 2.3(d), the Borrower shall advise the Agent and the Issuing Lender whether or not the Borrower
intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related demand for payment. If the Borrower fails to so advise the Agent and the Issuing Lender, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the
Issuing Lender for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, 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 which shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable ABR Margin) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Agent shall give each
Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions
of Section 2.3(j) shall apply. The limitations of Section 3.5(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 Lender of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been
terminated, 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
Lender’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligation.   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 Lender 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; provided,
however, this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such remedies as it may have against the beneficiaries or transferees under law or any other agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of
the foregoing, neither the Agent, the Issuing Lender nor 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 it 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 

  
 41 









 
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 strictly comply 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, telex, 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 the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent, the Issuing Lender or
the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Agent’s, the Issuing Lender’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Lender under or
in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create against the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender any liability to the Borrower or any Lender. In this
connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
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 Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender, any
beneficiary or transferee 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, any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit, the Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any draft, certificate, 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 or transferee of a Letter of Credit or any other Person of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft, certificate, demand,
statement or other document which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (H) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter
of Credit in connection therewith; (I) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (J) the legality, validity,
form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (K) the failure of any payment by Issuing Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in Issuing Lender’s good faith judgment, such payment is determined to be
appropriate); (L) the surrender or impairment of any security for 

  
 42 









 
the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (M) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (N) 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 12.9, but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify
the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit (including, without
limitation, a failure of Issuing Lender to comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit) as actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any
rights the Borrower may have with respect to the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to any Letter of Credit. 
 (h) Amendments, Etc.    The issuance by the Issuing Lender of any extension, 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 Lender), and no such extension, 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 extended, amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the
Requisite Lenders shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such extension, amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the Fees, if any, payable under Section 3.6(b). 

(i) Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit.   Immediately upon the issuance by the
Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such
Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Lender 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 Lender to pay and discharge when due, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Lender’s liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to
the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3(j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender, acquire
(i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Lender 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 Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b)(i) and (iii)). 

  
 43 









 (j) Payment Obligation of Lenders.   Each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing Lender under each Letter of
Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(d). Each such Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender under this subsection, and the Issuing
Lender’s right to receive the same, 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 Obligor, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), or (iv) the
termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever. If the Issuing Lender shall make any disbursement on account of a
drawing under a Letter of Credit (a “LC Disbursement”), then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made (and without relieving the Borrower of its obligation to do
so), the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the Post-Default Rate. 

(k) Information to Lenders.  Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, the
Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Lenders an accounting of each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Lender shall deliver to such Lender 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 Lender 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 Lender to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under Section 2.3(j). 
 (l) Replacement of the Issuing Lender.    The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the
successor Issuing Lender. The Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced
Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to
Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as
the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall 

  
 44 









 
remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement,
but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 Section 2.4    Rates and Payment
of Interest on Loans. 
 (a) Rates.    The Borrower promises to pay to the
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 Alternate Base
Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable ABR Margin; and 
 (ii) during such periods as such
Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, at the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable LIBOR Margin. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding
principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all outstanding 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). 
 (b) Payment of
Interest.    Accrued interest on Base Rate Loans (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar month. Accrued interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable in arrears on the last
day of each Interest Period and, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period longer than three (3) months, on each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months’ duration after the
first day of such Interest Period. Accrued interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each month. Accrued Interest on all Loans shall also be payable in arrears upon termination of the Commitments. In addition, upon
any Conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such Conversion. Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from
time to time on demand. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower. All determinations by
the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

  
 45 









 Section 2.5    Number of Interest Periods.

 There may be no more than five (5) different Interest Periods for LIBOR Rate Loans that are
Revolving Loans outstanding at the same time. 
 Section 2.6    Maturity Date; Extension.

 (a) Maturity Date.     Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, the Aggregate Commitment shall terminate on the Maturity Date, and the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Loans, together with all other amounts then
outstanding under this Agreement, on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) Extended Maturity Date
Option.   The Borrower may extend the term of this Agreement to the first anniversary of the Initial Maturity Date (the “Extended Maturity Date”), subject to the satisfaction of the following requirements:

 (i)      delivery by the Borrower of a written notice of such extension not
more than ninety (90) days and not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the Initial Maturity Date (the “Extension Notice”); 
 (ii)      no Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such extension; 
 (iii)     no Material Adverse Effect has occurred in the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or any other Obligor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole,
since the Agreement Date; 
 (iv)     compliance with each covenant contained in
Articles VII, VIII and IX hereof, including but not limited to the financial covenants contained in Section 9.1 hereof for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower (both on the basis of the then effective Section 9.1 and
related definitions and on a pro forma basis taking into account the revised methods of calculating the Borrowing Base Value and Total Asset Value that would apply during the term of such extension); 

(v)      delivery by the Borrower on or before the Initial Maturity Date to the Agent (for
the pro rata benefit of the Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentage) of an extension fee equal to one-fourth of one percent (.25%) of the Aggregate Commitment (the “Extension Fee”); and 

(vi)     Borrower shall have a Tangible Net Worth of not less than $400,000,000 on or after the
date of the Extension Notice but not later than the Initial Maturity Date. 
 Such extension shall be effective as of the date
of delivery of the Extension Notice and the Extension Fee and receipt by the Agent of a certificate executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower representing and certifying that the 

  
 46 









 
requirement in preceding clause (vi) has been satisfied, provided that, upon delivery of the Extension Notice, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and certified that the
representations in preceding clauses (ii) – (iv) have been satisfied. 

Section 2.7    Prepayments. 

(a) Optional.   Subject to Section 3.5 and Section 4.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan
at any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower shall notify the Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of
prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time,
one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Atlanta, Georgia time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify
the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by
Section 2.11, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.11. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Loan, the Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Loan shall be in accordance with Section 3.5. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.4. 

(b) Mandatory.   If at any time the provisions of Section 2.13 are not met, the Borrower
shall, within one (1) Business Day, pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders the amount required to comply with such section. Such payment shall be applied by the Agent to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Revolving 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 by the Agent into the Collateral Account for application to any
Reimbursement Obligations or returned to the Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.12. If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR 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 2.8    Continuation. 

So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to
any Revolving Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Rate Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall
commence on the last day of the 

  
 47 









 
immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower’s giving to the Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. on the
third (3rd) Business Day prior to the date of any
such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telephone or telecopy, confirmed immediately in writing if by telephone, in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such
Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Rate 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 Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar
form of transmission, of the proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any such LIBOR Rate Loan in accordance with this Section, or if a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into (or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan, continue as) a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.9 or the
Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section. 

Section 2.9    Conversion. 

So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the
Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Agent, Convert all or a portion of a Revolving Loan of one Type into a Revolving Loan of another Type. Any Conversion of a Revolving Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall
be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan and, upon Conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the date of Conversion on the principal amount so
Converted. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and on the third (3rd ) Business Day prior to the date of any proposed
Conversion into LIBOR Rate Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified
above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telephone (confirmed immediately in writing) or telecopy in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Revolving Loan to be
Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Revolving Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Revolving Loan such Revolving Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Rate 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 2.10  Notes. 

(a) Revolving Note.   The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement,
also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit J (each a “Revolving Note”), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Commitment as
originally in effect and otherwise duly completed. 

  
 48 









 (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. 
 (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 2.11  Termination, Reduction or Increase of the
Commitment. 
 (a) 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 equal the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or
premium upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (in accordance with
Section 3.5) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Agent; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the
effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. The Agent will promptly transmit such notice
to each Lender. The Commitments may not be reduced below $50,000,000 in the aggregate unless the Borrower terminates the Commitments in their entirety, and, once terminated or reduced, the Commitments may not be increased or reinstated. 

(b) (i) Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.11(b), Borrower may request (each such request, a
“Facility Increase Request”), by notice to Agent, an increase of the Aggregate Commitment (such increase, a “Facility Increase”) within the limitations hereinafter set forth. Within seventy-five (75) days of
receipt of a Facility Increase Request, the Aggregate Commitment may be so increased either by having (x) one or more Eligible Assignees (other than Lenders then holding a Commitment hereunder) approved by Borrower, Arrangers and Agent (which
consents will not be unreasonably withheld) become Lenders hereunder (each a “New Lender”), and/or (y) any one or more Lenders then holding a Commitment hereunder (at their respective election in their sole discretion) that
have been approved by Borrower, Arrangers and Agent (which consents will not be unreasonably withheld) increase the amount of their Commitments (any such Lender that elects to increase its 

  
 49 









 
Commitment and any New Lender being hereinafter referred to as an “Additional Lender”), provided that (A) Facility Increases shall not exceed, in the aggregate,
$100,000,000, nor shall the Aggregate Commitment exceed $400,000,000; (B) each individual Facility Increase Request shall be for an amount not less than $25,000,000; (C) Borrower and each Additional Lender shall have executed and delivered
a commitment and acceptance (the “Commitment and Acceptance”) substantially in the form of Exhibit L hereto and Agent shall have accepted and executed the same (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld);
(D) Borrower shall have executed and delivered to Agent a Note or Notes payable to the order of each Additional Lender, each such Note to be in the amount of such Additional Lender’s Commitment or increased Commitment (as applicable);
(E) the Guarantors shall have delivered to Agent a written instrument confirming their consent to the new Commitments or increases in Commitments (as applicable) and that their Guaranty Agreements continue in full force and effect;
(F) Borrower and each Additional Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered opinions, certificates, resolutions and such other instruments and documents as Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such new Commitment or
increase in a Commitment (as applicable); (G) Borrower shall pay (i) to the Agent for the account of the Additional Lenders an upfront fee related to the increased Commitments and (ii) to the Agent or its affiliate an arrangement fee
related to the Facility Increase, and such fees shall be in an amount to be determined by Borrower and Agent and payable on the Increase Date; and (H) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on the Increase Date after giving effect to the
increase in the Aggregate Commitment and all representations and warranties are true in all material respects on the Increase 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 accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder. The form and substance of the documents
required under clauses (C) through (F) above shall be fully acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion. Agent shall provide written notice to Lenders following any such increase in the Aggregate Commitment hereunder and shall furnish
to Lenders, upon request, copies of the Commitment and Acceptance. 
 (ii) On the effective date of any increase
in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to the provisions hereof (the “Increase Date”), which Increase Date shall be mutually agreed upon by Borrower, each Additional Lender and Agent, each Additional Lender shall make a payment to
Agent in an amount sufficient, upon the application of such payments by all Additional Lenders to the reduction of the outstanding Base Rate Loans held by Lenders, to cause the principal amount outstanding under such Base Rate Loans made by all
Lenders (including any Additional Lender) to be in the proportion of their respective Commitments (as of such Increase Date). Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Additional Lender to fund to Agent the payment required to be made pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence for application to the reduction of the outstanding Base Rate Loans held by each Lender, and each such payment shall constitute a Base Rate Loan hereunder. Such Additional Lender shall not participate in any LIBOR
Rate Loans that are outstanding on the Increase Date, but, if Borrower shall, at any time on or after such Increase Date, convert or continue 

  
 50 









 
any LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding on such Increase Date, Borrower shall be deemed to repay such LIBOR Rate Loans on the date of the conversion or continuation thereof and then to re-borrow as a
LIBOR Rate Loan a like amount on such date (regardless of whether the conditions precedent to borrowing have been satisfied) so that each Additional Lender shall make a LIBOR Rate Loan on such date in its Commitment Percentage of such LIBOR Rate
Loans. Each Additional Lender shall also advance its Commitment Percentage of all Revolving Loans made on or after such Increase Date and shall otherwise have all of the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder on and after such Increase Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default prior to the date on which an Additional Lender is holding Revolving Loans equal to its Commitment Percentage of all Revolving Loans hereunder, such Additional Lender shall,
upon notice from Agent, on or after the date on which the Obligations are accelerated or become due following such Event of Default, pay to Agent (for the account of the other Lenders, to which Agent shall pay their pro rata shares upon
receipt) a sum equal to such Additional Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan then outstanding with respect to which such Additional Lender does not then hold its Commitment Percentage thereof. 

(iii) On the Increase Date and the making of the Loans by an Additional Lender in accordance with the provisions of
Section 2.11(b)(ii) hereof, such Additional Lender shall also be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, from Lenders party to this Agreement immediately prior to the Increase Date,
an undivided interest and participation in any Letter of Credit then outstanding, ratably, such that all Lenders (including each Additional Lender) hold participation interests in each such Letter of Credit in the proportion of their respective
Commitments (taking into account the increase in the Aggregate Commitment that is effective on such Increase Date). 
 (iv) Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment or agreement on the part of any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time or a commitment or
agreement on the part of Borrower or Agent to give or grant any Lender the right to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time. 
 Section 2.12 Expiration or Maturity Date of Letters of Credit Past Maturity Date. 
 If on any date within sixty (60) days prior to the Maturity Date there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder having an expiration date beyond the Maturity Date, without limiting the terms
of Section 2.3(b), the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Agent an amount of money equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter(s) of Credit for deposit into the Collateral Account. If a drawing pursuant to any such Letter of Credit occurs
on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower authorizes the Issuing Lender to notify the Agent, and authorize the Agent to pay to the Issuing Lender monies deposited in the Collateral Account for Issuing Lender to make
payment to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such 

  
 51 









 
presentment. If no drawing occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Agent shall withdraw the monies deposited in the Collateral Account with respect to such
outstanding Letter of Credit on or before the date ten (10) Business Days after the expiration date of such Letter of Credit and apply such funds to the Obligations, if any, then due and payable or pay such funds to the Borrower in the order
prescribed by Section 10.3. No amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall be subject to reinstatement. 

Section 2.13  Amount Limitations. 
 Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document at no time shall: 
 (a) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceed the Borrowing Base Availability; 
 (b) the Outstanding Credit Exposure of any Lender exceed the Commitment of such Lender; 
 (c) the Letter of Credit Exposure exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount; and 
 (d) the Swingline Exposure exceed the Swingline Commitment. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, failure to meet the requirements of this Section 2.13 due to a change in the result of the calculations set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the definition of Borrowing Base Availability shall not be an Event of Default
if Borrower makes a mandatory prepayment as set forth in Section 2.7(b), including within the time period set forth in Section 2.7(b). 
 Section 2.14  Advances by Agent. 
 Unless the Agent
shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the specified date of borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Agent the Loan to be made by such Lender on such date, the Agent may assume that such Lender will make the
proceeds of such Loan available to the Agent on the date of the requested borrowing and the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Loan to be provided by such
Lender and such Lender shall be liable to Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly
pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was
made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 12.15), the Borrower does not waive any claim that it may have against a Defaulting Lender. 

  
 52 









 ARTICLE III.  PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS 

Section 3.1   Payments. 
 Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars,
in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Agent at its Principal Office, not later than 12:00 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 Sections 3.2 and 3.3., the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time from any special or general
deposit account of Borrower with the Agent, other than accounts as to which the Agent has expressly waived offset rights in writing. The Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any Note, specify to the Agent the
amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by the Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such
Lender no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt. 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 be payable for the period of such extension. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall
have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court. 

Section 3.2   Pro Rata Treatment. 

(a) Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1(a)
shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the Fees under Section 3.6(a) and Section 3.6(b)(ii) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.11
shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Commitments; (ii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Loans by the Borrower 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 if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans
the outstanding principal amount of the 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; (iii) each
payment of interest on Revolving Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with 

  
 53 









 
the amount of interest on such Revolving Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (iv) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans of a particular Type (other
than Conversions provided for by Section 4.6) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of making of Revolving Loans) or their respective Revolving Loans (in the case
of Conversions and Continuations of Revolving Loans) and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each Revolving Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (v) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations
in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.3, shall be pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; and (vi) the Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under
Section 2.2, shall be pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments. 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 2.2(e)). 
 (b) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.1(c), Section 2.2(e), Section 2.3(e), Section 2.3(i), Section 2.3(j),
Section 2.14 or Section 11.7, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer treated as a Defaulting Lender under Section 3.11(e) and has made the adjustments required by Section 3.11(e), the Agent shall (notwithstanding any
contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or
(ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by
the Agent in reasonable discretion. 
 Section 3.3  Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement, or shall
obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Obligor through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or
other payments made by the Borrower to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to some or all of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3, as
applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other applicable Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by such 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 applicable Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may be incurred by such Lender
in obtaining or preserving such benefit) pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3. To such end, all the applicable Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or
otherwise) if such payment is rescinded 

  
 54 









 
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. 
 Section 3.5   Minimum Amounts.

 (a) Borrowings and Conversions.  Each borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an
aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 in excess thereof. Each borrowing and each Continuation or Conversion of LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000,000 in excess of that amount. 
 (b) Prepayments.  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 the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding). 

(c) Reductions of Commitments.    Each reduction of the Commitments under Section 2.11
shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 

Section 3.6   Fees. 

(a) Unused Fee.  Borrower agrees to pay to Agent for the benefit of each Lender an unused fee (the
“Unused Fee”) for the Commitment Period, computed at the Applicable Unused Fee Rate per annum on the average daily unused amount of each Lender’s Commitment during the Commitment Period, payable quarterly in arrears and due on
the fifth (5th) calendar day of each calendar quarter and on the last day of the Commitment Period, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the Agreement Date. For purposes of determining the unused portion of the Aggregate
Commitment, the Aggregate Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of the sum of the Letter of Credit Exposure and Revolving Loans. For purposes of determining the unused portion of a Lender’s Commitment hereunder, such Lender’s
Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the sum of the Letters of Credit Exposure and Revolving Loans of such Lender. 

  
 55 









 (b) Letter of Credit Fees. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender only, and not the account of any other
Lender, a one-time fee in respect of each Letter of Credit at the rate equal to the greater of (x) $1,500 and (y) one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be non-refundable and
payable upon issuance of such Letter of Credit. 
 (ii) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account
of each Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the then current Applicable LIBOR Margin times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance or extension of such
Letter of Credit (A) to and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated or (B) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. Such fees shall be nonrefundable and payable in arrears on the last
Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year, on the Maturity Date, and on the date the Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Letter of Credit fee payable pursuant to
this Section 3.6(b)(ii) shall be payable at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (x) the Applicable LIBOR Margin plus (y) two percent (2.0%), and such fees shall be due and payable upon demand. 

(iii) The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Lender from time to time within five (5) Business Days after
demand all charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by the Issuing Lender from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, drawings, amendments and other transactions relating
thereto. 
 (c) Administrative and Other Fees.    The Borrower agrees to pay the
reasonable administrative and other fees of the Agent as may be agreed to in writing from time to time. 

Section 3.7   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. 
 Section 3.8   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 received by any Lender, then such excess sum 

  
 56 









 
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. 

Section 3.9    Agreement Regarding Interest and Charges. 

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 2.2(c), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees,
arrangement fees, amendment fees, up-front fees, commitment fees, facility fees, unused fee, 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 Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Agent or any Lender, or any other similar amounts are charges made to compensate the 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 Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges
for the use of money. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders have imposed no minimum borrowing requirements, reserve or escrow balances or compensating balances related in any way to the Obligations. Any use by the Borrower of
certificates of deposit issued by any Lender or other accounts maintained with any Lender has been and shall be voluntary on the part of the Borrower. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when
due. 
 Section 3.10 Statements of Account. 

The Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, Letters of Credit, accrued interest and Fees, charges and
payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall
not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder. 
 Section 3.11 Defaulting Lenders.

 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the
following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) fees shall cease to
accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(a) until such Defaulting Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; 

  
 57 









 (b) the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender
shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 12.6), provided that any waiver,
amendment or modification that increases the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, forgives all or any portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon owing to a Defaulting Lender, reduces the Applicable
Margin on the underlying interest rate options owing to a Defaulting Lender or extends the Maturity Date shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or Letter of Credit Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure shall be reallocated among the
non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Outstanding Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and
Letter of Credit Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments, (y) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Outstanding Credit Exposure would not exceed its Commitment and (z) the conditions set forth in
Sections 5.2(a) and (b) are satisfied at such time; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause
(i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall (x) first, within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Agent, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, within ten (10) Days following
notice by the Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) by depositing amounts into the Collateral Account for so long as such
Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding, and such amounts shall be disbursed to pay the Reimbursement Obligations related to such Letter of Credit Exposure or returned to the Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.12; 
 (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s
Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure
during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the
Letter of Credit Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’
Commitment Percentages and the fees payable to the Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6(b) shall be reduced accordingly; or 

  
 58 









 (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither
cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.6(b) with respect to
such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated. 

(d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan
and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be one hundred percent (100%) covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or
cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in the amount of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with Section 3.11(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or
newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 3.11(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). 

(e) Defaulting Lender Cure. In the event that the Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender
each reasonably determines that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the
inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such
Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. 
 (f) In no event shall the provisions of this
Section 3.11 result in any Lender’s Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment. 
 Section 3.12
Taxes. 
 (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 present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any
nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding (i) franchise taxes, and (ii) any taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender’s assets, net income, receipts or branch profits (such non-excluded items being collectively
called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any 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;


  
 59 









 (ii) promptly forward to the Agent an official receipt or other
documentation satisfactory to the Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and 
 (iii) pay
to the Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Agent or such Lender will equal the full amount that
the Agent or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. 
 (b) Tax
Indemnification.  If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Agent, for its account or the account of the respective Lender, as the case may be, the required
receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes
of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the 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 outside the United States of America becomes a party hereto, such Person shall
deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) 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 indicating whether payments to it
hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax or (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code because such payment is either effectively
connected with the conduct by such Lender or participant of a trade or business in the United States or totally exempt from United States Federal withholding tax by reason of the application of the provisions of a treaty to which the United States
is a party or such Lender is otherwise wholly exempt; provided that nothing herein (including, without limitation, the failure or inability to provide any of such certificates, documents or other evidence) shall relieve the Borrower of its
obligations under this Section 3.12. In addition, any such Lender or participant shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) further copies of any such
certificate, document or other evidence on or before the date that any such certificate, document or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete.

 ARTICLE IV.   YIELD PROTECTION, ETC. 

Section 4.1   Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy. 

(a) Additional Costs.   The Borrower shall promptly pay to the 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 reasonably determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Rate Loans or its
obligation to make any LIBOR Rate 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 Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of
capital in respect of its Loans or its Commitment (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 Loans or its Commitment (other than taxes which are excluded from the definition of Taxes pursuant to the first sentence
of Section 3.12(a)); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board or other reserve requirement to the extent utilized in the determination of the LIBOR Base
Rate for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender, or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitments of such Lender hereunder); or
(iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with
respect to capital adequacy). 
 (b) Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans.   Without
limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 4.1(a), 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 Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert any other Type of Loans into, LIBOR Rate 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). 
 (c) 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 or any risk-based capital guideline or other
requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority 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 Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Lender 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 Lender or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Issuing Lender 

  
 61 









 
or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days of demand, to the Agent for its account or the account of the Issuing Lender or such Lender, as
applicable, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Lender or a Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Lender or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount. 

(d) Notification and Determination of Additional Costs.   Each of the Agent and each Lender agrees to
notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, the failure of
the Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Agent or a Lender, as the case may
be, shall not be entitled to compensation for any such amount relating to any period ending more than twelve (12) months prior to the date that the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, first notifies the Borrower in writing thereof. The Agent
and or such Lender agrees to furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the Agent or such Lender for compensation under this Section. Absent manifest error, determinations by the Agent 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. 
 Section 4.2   Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
 Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBOR Base Rate or LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the
LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be
conclusive) that the LIBOR Rate as determined by the Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period; 
 then the Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional
LIBOR Rate Loans, Continue LIBOR Rate Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall be applicable) and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding
LIBOR Rate Loan, either repay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan. 

  
 62 









 Section 4.3   Illegality. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful for any Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain
LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended
until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall be applicable). 
 Section 4.4   Compensation. 
 The Borrower shall pay to the
Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender
determines is attributable to: 
 (a) any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Rate
Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Rate 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 V to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Rate Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan or Continue a LIBOR Rate Loan on the requested date of
such Conversion or Continuation. 
 Upon the Borrower’s request, any Lender requesting compensation under this Section shall provide the
Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Each Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender and may
include, without limitation, administrative costs as a component of such loss, cost or expense. Absent manifest error, determinations by any Lender in any such statement shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable
basis and in good faith. 
 Section 4.5   Affected Lenders. 

If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.12 or 4.1, and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same,
(b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b) or 4.3 but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have
been suspended under such Sections, or (c) a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default or Event of Default, the Borrower, within thirty (30) days of such request for compensation or
suspension, as applicable, may either (i) demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its 

  
 63 









 
Commitments to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5(d) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to
the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or (ii) except in the case of a Defaulting Lender, pay to the Affected Lender the aggregate principal balance of Loans
then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, whereupon the Affected Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents. Each of the 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 Agent, such Affected Lender nor any
other Lender 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 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 Section 3.12, 4.1 or 4.4. 
 Section 4.6   Treatment of Affected Loans. 

If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be
suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b), 4.2 or 4.3, then such Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Rate Loans (or, in the case of
a Conversion required by Section 4.1(b) or 4.3 or to the extent required by law, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the
circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist: 
 (a) to
the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

 (b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Rate 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 Rate Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans. 
 If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Rate 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 Rate Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Revolving Loans that are Base
Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Loans held by the Lenders
holding LIBOR Rate Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

  
 64 









 Section 4.7   Change of Lending Office. 

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected
by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.12, 4.1 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 by such Lender
in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America. 
 Section 4.8   Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. 
 Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article IV shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market
bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund
each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article IV.

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

for the issuance, sale, registration or voting of, or outstanding securities convertible into, any additional shares of capital stock of any class, or partnership or other ownership interests of any type in, any such Guarantor. As of the Agreement
Date, Part II of Schedule 6.1(b) correctly sets forth or diagrams all Unconsolidated Affiliates of the Borrower, including the correct legal name of such Person, the type of legal entity which each such Person is, and all Equity

 (c) Authorization of Agreement,
Etc. 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 Obligor has the right and power, and


  
 69 









 
has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to execute, deliver and perform each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms and to consummate the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers or other representatives 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

(d) Compliance of Loan Documents with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the
Notes and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party 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

 (f) Ownership of Property; Liens. As of the Agreement Date, Part I of Schedule 6.1(f) sets forth all of the real property owned or leased by the Borrower, each other Obligor and each of
their respective Subsidiaries. Each such Person has good, marketable and legal title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, its respective assets, except with respect to the each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary of an Obligor whose

Each of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries has title to their properties sufficient for the conduct of their business. The Borrower 

  
 70 









 
or another Obligor is, with respect to all real property reasonably necessary for the operation of its business, the named insured under a policy of title insurance issued by a title insurer
operating in the jurisdiction where such real property is located. As to each such policy of title insurance (i) the coverage amount equals or exceeds the acquisition cost of the related real property and any improvements added thereto by such
Person (ii) no claims are pending that, if adversely determined, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (iii) no title insurer has given notice to the insured Person that such policy of title
insurance is no longer in effect. Neither the Borrower, any other Obligor nor any of their respective Subsidiaries has knowledge of any defect in title of any Property that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (g) Existing Indebtedness.   Schedule 6.1(g) is,
as of the date hereof, a complete and correct listing of all Indebtedness of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries, including without limitation, Contingent Liabilities (to the extent included in the definition of
Indebtedness) of the Borrower and the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries, and indicating whether such Indebtedness is Secured Debt or Unsecured Debt. During the period from such date to the Agreement Date, neither the Borrower, any
other Obligor nor any of their respective Subsidiaries incurred any material Indebtedness except as set forth in such Schedule. As of the Agreement Date, the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries have performed and are in
compliance with all of the material terms of all Indebtedness of such Persons and all instruments and agreements relating thereto, and no default or event of default, or event or condition which with the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both,
would constitute such a default or event of default, exists with respect to any such Indebtedness. 
 (h)
Material Contracts.   Each of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries that is a party to any Material Contract is in compliance with all of the material terms of such Material Contract, and no default or
event of default, or event or condition which with the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, would constitute such a default or event of default, exists with respect to any such Material Contract. 

(i) Litigation.   Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(i), there are no actions, suits or
proceedings pending (nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, are there any actions, suits or proceedings threatened, nor is there any basis therefor) against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting the Borrower, any other Obligor, any
of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective property in any court, or before any tribunal, administrative agency, board, arbitrator or mediator of any kind or before or by any other Governmental Authority which has had or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which question the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. There are no strikes, slow downs, work stoppages or walkouts or other labor disputes in progress or threatened

the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries 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 the Borrower, each
other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries and their respective properties, income, profits and assets which are due and payable have been paid, except any such nonpayment which is at the time permitted or not required under
Section 7.6. As of the Agreement Date, none of the United States income tax returns of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is under audit. All charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower, any

its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date and the results of operations and the cash flow for such period (subject to the absence of footnotes and normal year-end audit adjustments). Neither the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor, nor any Subsidiary
of the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor has on the Agreement Date any material contingent liabilities, liabilities, liabilities for taxes, or unusual or long-term commitments or unrealized or forward anticipated losses from any unfavorable
commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in said financial statements or except as set forth on Schedule 6.1 (k). 
 (l) No Material Adverse Change.   Since December 31, 2010, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, business or
prospects of the Borrower, the Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries. Each of the (i) Borrower, (ii) the other Obligors and (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are Solvent. 

(m) ERISA.   Each member of the ERISA Group is in compliance with its obligations, if any, under the
minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance with the presently 

  
 72 









 
applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan, except in each case for noncompliances which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. As of the Agreement Date, no member of the ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed to make any contribution or
payment to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan or in respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any amendment to any Plan or Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security
under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code or (iii) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA. 

(n) No Plan Assets; No Prohibited Transaction.   None of the assets of the Borrower, any other Obligor
or their respective Subsidiaries constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code and the respective regulations promulgated thereunder. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and the borrowing and repayment of amounts hereunder, do not and will not constitute “prohibited transactions” under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code. 

(o) Absence of Defaults.   None of the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or any of their respective
Subsidiaries is in default under its Governing Documents, and no event has occurred, which has not been remedied, cured or irrevocably waived: (i) which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default; or (ii) which constitutes an event of
default or, which with the passage of time, the giving of notice, a determination of materiality, the satisfaction of any condition, or any combination of the foregoing, would constitute an event of default, by Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or any of
their respective Subsidiaries under (x) any Recourse Indebtedness that constitutes an Event of Default under Section 10.1(f) below, or (y) any Nonrecourse Indebtedness that constitutes an Event of Default under Section 10.1(f)
below. 
 (p) Environmental Matters. 

(i) The Borrower, each other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries, and each of the Properties and all
operations at the Properties is in compliance with the requirements of all applicable Environmental Laws except for the matters set forth on Schedule 6.1(p) and such other non-compliance which, in any event, either individually or in the
aggregate, has not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (ii) No
Hazardous Materials have been (i) generated or manufactured on, transported to or from, treated at, stored at or discharged from any Property in violation of any Environmental Laws; (ii) discharged into subsurface waters under any Property
in violation of any Environmental Laws; or (iii) discharged from any Property on or into property or waters (including subsurface waters) adjacent to any Property in violation of any Environmental


  
 73 









 
Laws, except for the matters set forth on Schedule 6.1(p) and other violations which violations, in any event, in the case of any of (i), (ii) or (iii), either individually or in the
aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (iii) Except for the
matters set forth on Schedule 6.1(p) and any of the following matters or liabilities that, in any event, either individually or in the aggregate, have not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither the
Borrower, any other Obligor nor any of their respective Subsidiaries (i) has received notice (written or oral) or otherwise learned of any claim, demand, suit, action, proceeding, event, condition, report, directive, lien, violation,
non-compliance or investigation indicating or concerning any potential or actual liability (including, without limitation, potential liability for enforcement, investigatory costs, cleanup costs, government response costs, removal costs, remedial
costs, natural resources damages, property damages, personal injuries or penalties) arising in connection with (x) any non-compliance with or violation of the requirements of any applicable Environmental Laws, or (y) the presence of any
Hazardous Materials on any Property (or any Property previously owned by any of such Persons) or the release or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials into the environment, (ii) has any threatened or actual liability in connection with
the presence of any Hazardous Materials on any Property (or any Property previously owned by any of such Persons) or the release or threatened release of any Hazardous Materials into the environment, (iii) has received notice of any federal or
state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to the presence of any Hazardous Materials on any Property (or any Property previously owned by any of such Persons) or a release or threatened release of any Hazardous
Materials into the environment for which the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is or may be liable, or (iv) has received notice that the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is or may be
liable to any Person under any Environmental Law. 
 (iv) To the best of the Borrower’s knowledge after due
inquiry, no Property is located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards, or if any such Property is located in such a special flood hazard area, then the Borrower has obtained
all insurance that is required to be maintained by law or which is customarily maintained by Persons engaged in similar businesses and owning similar Properties in the same general areas in which the Borrower operates except where such failure
individually or in the aggregate has not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (q) Investment Company.   None of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, 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, and (ii) subject to any other Applicable Law 

  
 74 









 
which purports to regulate or restrict its ability to borrow money or to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to perform its obligations under any Loan Document to which
it is a party. 
 (r) Margin Stock.   None of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their
respective Subsidiaries 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” or a “margin
security” within the meaning of Regulations T, U and X of the Board. 
 (s) Affiliate Transactions.
  Except as permitted by Section 9.9, none of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any agreement or arrangement (whether oral or written) to which any Affiliate (but not any
Subsidiary of Borrower) of any Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party. 

(t) Intellectual Property.   Except as has not had and could not be reasonably expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, (i) the Borrower, each other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries owns or has the right to use, under valid license agreements or otherwise, all material patents, licenses, franchises, trademarks, trademark
rights, trade names, trade name rights, trade secrets and copyrights (collectively, “Intellectual Property”) used in the conduct of their respective businesses as now conducted and as contemplated by the Loan Documents, without
known conflict with any patent, license, franchise, trademark, trade secret, trade name, copyright, or other proprietary right of any other Person; (ii) the Borrower, each other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries has taken all
such steps as they deem reasonably necessary to protect their respective rights under and with respect to such Intellectual Property; (iii) no claim has been asserted by any Person with respect to the use of any Intellectual Property by the
Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or challenging or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property; and (iv) the use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower, the other Obligors
and each of their respective Subsidiaries, 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 the Borrower, the other Obligors or any of
their respective Subsidiaries. 
 (u) Business.   The Borrower, the other Obligors and each of
their respective Subsidiaries are engaged substantially in the business of the acquisition, disposition, financing, ownership, development rehabilitation, leasing, operation and management of office and industrial buildings and other business
activities incidental thereto. 
 (v) Broker’s Fees.   Other than fees payable pursuant to
(i) Section 3.6 and (ii) any agreement with the Agent regarding fees in connection with this Credit Agreement, 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 Obligor for any other services rendered to the Borrower, any of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower or any other Obligor or any other Obligor ancillary to the transactions
contemplated hereby. 

  
 75 









 (w) 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 Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or at the direction of, the Borrower, any other Obligor 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 the Borrower, any other Obligor 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. The written information, reports and other papers and data with respect to the Borrower,
any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the Borrowing Base Properties (other than projections and other forward-looking statements) furnished to the Agent or the Lenders in connection with or relating in any way to this
Agreement was, at the time so furnished, complete and correct in all material respects, or has been subsequently supplemented by other written information, reports or other papers or data, to the extent necessary to give in all material respects a
true and accurate knowledge of the subject matter. All financial statements furnished to the Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or at the direction of, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with or
relating in any way to this Agreement, present fairly, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved, the financial position of the Persons involved as at the date thereof and the results of operations for such
periods. All financial projections and other forward looking statements prepared by, or on behalf of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries that have been or may hereafter be made available to the Agent or any Lender
were or will be prepared in good faith based on assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made. No fact or circumstance is known to the Borrower which has had, or may in the future have (so far as the Borrower can reasonably foresee), a
Material Adverse Effect which has not been set forth in the financial statements referred to in Section 6.1 or in such information, reports or other papers or data or otherwise disclosed in writing to the Agent and the Lenders prior to the
Effective Date. 
 (x) REIT Status.   The REIT Guarantor has elected to qualify as a REIT
commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2010 and shall continue to so elect each taxable year thereafter, and after such time will remain in compliance with all requirements and conditions imposed under the Internal Revenue Code to
allow the REIT Guarantor to maintain its status as a REIT. 
 (y) Insurance.   The Borrower,
the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries have insurance covering the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries and their respective Properties in such amounts and against such risks and casualties as are customary
for Persons or Properties of similar character and location, due regard being given to the type of improvements thereon, their construction, location, use and occupancy. As of the Agreement Date, none of the


  
 76 









 
Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries has received notice that any such insurance has been cancelled, not renewed, or impaired in any way. 

(z) Ownership of Borrower.   The REIT Guarantor is the sole general partner of the Borrower and owns
free of any Lien or other claim not less than a sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) Equity Interest in the Borrower. 
 (aa) No Bankruptcy Filing.   None of the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal
bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of its assets or property, and the Borrower has no knowledge of any Person threatening the filing of any such petition against any of the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

 (bb) No Fraudulent Intent.   Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents nor the performance of any actions required hereunder or thereunder is being undertaken by the Borrower or any other Obligor with or as a result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder, delay or defraud any
entity to which any of such Persons is now or will hereafter become indebted. 
 (cc) Transaction in Best
Interests of Borrower and Obligors; Consideration.   The transaction evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is in the best interests of the Borrower and the other Obligors. The direct and indirect benefits to inure to
the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute materially more than “reasonably equivalent value” (as such term is used in §548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and “valuable
consideration,” “fair value,” and “fair consideration” (as such terms are used in any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to be provided by the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the willingness of each Guarantor to guaranty the Obligations, the Borrower would be unable to obtain the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable the Borrower and the
other Obligors to have available financing to conduct and expand their business. The Borrower and the other Obligors constitute a single integrated financial enterprise and each receives a benefit from the availability of credit under this Agreement
to the Borrower. 
 (dd) Representations and Warranties from Other Loan Documents.   Each of
the representations and warranties made by any of the Obligors in any of the other Loan Documents is true and correct in all material respects. 
 (ee) Property.   All of the Borrower’s, the other Obligors’ and their respective Subsidiaries’ properties are in good repair and condition, subject to ordinary wear and
tear, other than (x) with respect to deferred maintenance existing as of the date of acquisition of such property as permitted in this Section, and (y) where the failure of the properties of any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any Subsidiary
of an Obligor to 

  
 77 









 
be in good repair and condition has not had or could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor. The Borrower has completed or
caused to be completed an appropriate investigation of the environmental condition of each Property as of the later of the date of the Borrower’s, the Obligors’ or the applicable Subsidiary’s purchase thereof or the date upon which
such property was last security for Indebtedness of such Persons, including preparation of a “Phase I” report and, if appropriate, a “Phase II” report, in each case prepared by a recognized environmental engineer in accordance
with customary standards which discloses that such property is not in violation of the representations and covenants set forth in this Agreement, unless such violation has been disclosed in writing to the Agent and remediation actions satisfactory
to Agent are being taken. There are no unpaid or outstanding real estate or other taxes or assessments on or against any property of the Borrower, the other Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries which are delinquent. Except as set forth in
Schedule 6.1(ee) hereto, there are no pending eminent domain proceedings against any property of the Borrower, the other Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries or any part thereof, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no such proceedings
are presently threatened or contemplated by any taking authority which, in all such events, individually or in the aggregate have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the property of the Borrower, the other
Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries is now damaged or injured as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or other casualty in any manner which individually or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have any
Material Adverse Effect. 
 (ff) Guarantors.   Each Material Subsidiary of Borrower (other than
an Excluded Subsidiary) is a Guarantor. 
 (gg) No Event of Default.   No Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 (hh) Subordination.   None of the Borrower or any
other Obligor is a party to or bound by any agreement, instrument or indenture that may require the subordination in right or time of payment of any of the Obligations to any other indebtedness or obligation of any of such Persons. 

(ii) Anti-Terrorism Laws. 

(i) None of the Borrower or any other Obligor or any of their Affiliates is in violation of any laws or regulations
relating to terrorism or money laundering (“Anti- Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”) and the Uniting and
Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56. 

  
 78 









 (ii) None of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their Affiliates, or
any of their brokers or other agents acting or benefiting from the Loan is a Prohibited Person. A “Prohibited Person” is any of the following: 

(A) a person or entity that is listed in the Annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive
Order; 
 (B) a person or entity owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any person or entity
that is listed in the Annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order; 
 (C) a
person or entity with whom any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law; 
 (D) a person or entity who commits, threatens or conspires to commit or supports “terrorism” as defined in the Executive Order; or 

(E) a person or entity that is named as a “specially designated national and blocked person” on the most
current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Asset Control at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list. 

(iii) None of the Borrower or any other Obligor, any of their Affiliates or any of their agents acting in any capacity in
connection with the Loan (1) to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, conducts any business or engages in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any Prohibited Person, (2) to the best
of the Borrower’s knowledge, deals in, or otherwise engages in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order, or (3) engages in or conspires to engage in any transaction that
evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law. 
 (iv) The Borrower and the other Obligors shall not (1) knowingly conduct any business or engage in making or receiving any contribution of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of any
Prohibited Person, (2) knowingly deal in, or otherwise engage in any transaction relating to, any property or interests in property blocked pursuant to the Executive Order or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, or (3) engage in or conspire to
engage in any transaction that evades or avoids, or has the purpose of evading or avoiding, or attempts to violate, any of the prohibitions set forth in any Anti-Terrorism Law (and the Borrower shall deliver to Agent any certification or other
evidence requested from time to time by Agent in its reasonable discretion, confirming the Borrower’s and the other Obligors’ compliance herewith). 

  
 79 









 (jj) Borrowing Base Properties.   As of the Agreement Date,
Schedule 6.1(jj) is a correct and complete list of all Borrowing Base Properties. Each of the Borrowing Base Properties included by the Borrower in calculations of the Borrowing Base Value satisfies all of the requirements contained in this
Agreement for the same to be included therein. 
 Section 6.2   Survival of Representations and Warranties,
Etc. 
 All statements contained in any certificate, financial statement or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of
the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (including, but not limited to, any such statement made in or in
connection with any amendment thereto or any statement contained in any certificate, financial statement or other instrument delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower prior to the Agreement Date and delivered to the Agent or any Lender in connection
with closing the transactions contemplated hereby) shall constitute representations and warranties made by the Borrower under this Agreement. All representations and warranties made under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed
to be made at and as of the Agreement Date, the Effective Date and the date of the occurrence of any Credit Event, 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 accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically permitted hereunder. All such representations and warranties shall survive the
effectiveness of this Agreement, the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit. 
 ARTICLE VII.   AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 
 For so long as this
Agreement and the Commitments are in effect and any Obligations are outstanding, unless the Requisite Lenders (or, if required pursuant to Section 12.6, all of the Lenders) shall otherwise consent in the manner provided for in
Section 12.6, the Borrower shall comply with the following covenants: 
 Section 7.1   Preservation of
Existence and Similar Matters. 
 Except as otherwise permitted under Section 9.6, the Borrower shall preserve and
maintain, and cause each other Obligor and each Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Obligor (other than a Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary or that is an Excluded Subsidiary) to preserve and maintain their respective existence,
rights, franchises, licenses and privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and qualify and remain qualified and authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which it is organized and in each other jurisdiction in which
the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification and authorization and where the failure to be so authorized and qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as otherwise
permitted under Section 9.6, the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary that is not a Material Subsidiary and each Excluded Subsidiary to 

  
 80 









 
preserve and maintain their respective existence, rights, franchises, licenses and privileges in the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation and qualify and remain qualified and authorized
to do business in each jurisdiction in which it is organized and in each other jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification and authorization, except where the failure to so preserve
and maintain or be so qualified and authorized could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Obligors and each Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Obligor to, develop and
implement such programs, policies and procedures as are necessary to comply with the Patriot Act and shall promptly advise Agent in writing in the event that any of such Persons shall determine that any investors in such Persons are in violation of
such act. 
 Section 7.2   Compliance with Applicable Law and Contracts. 

The Borrower shall comply, and cause each other Obligor and each Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Obligor to comply, with
(a) all Applicable Law, including the obtaining of all Governmental Approvals, (b) their respective Governing Documents, and (c) all mortgages, indentures, contracts, agreements and instruments to which it is a party or by which any
of its properties may be bound, the failure, in any such event, with which to comply could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 7.3   Maintenance of Property. 
 In addition to the
requirements of any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, (a) protect and preserve all of its properties or cause to be protected and preserved, and maintain or cause to be maintained in good
repair, working order and condition all tangible properties, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and (b) make or cause to be made all needed and appropriate repairs, renewals, replacements and additions to such properties, so that the business
carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times. With respect to each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary of an Obligor, in addition to the requirements of any of the other Loan Documents, the
Borrower shall cause each such Subsidiary to comply with clauses (a) and (b) above to the extent that the failure, in any such event, with which to comply could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the
Borrower or the REIT Guarantor. 
 Section 7.4   Conduct of Business. 

The Borrower shall at all times carry on, and cause the other Obligors and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the other Obligors to
carry on, their respective businesses as now conducted and in accordance with Section 6.1(u).

 81 









 
companies covering such Persons and their respective properties in such amounts and against such risks and casualties as are customary for Persons or properties of similar character and location,
due regard being given to the type of improvements thereon, their construction, location, use and occupancy, and from time to time deliver to the Agent or any Lender upon its request a detailed list stating the names of the insurance companies, the
amounts of the insurance, the dates of the expiration thereof and the Properties and risks covered thereby, together with copies of all certificates of the insurance then in effect. 

(b) Each insurance policy required under this Section shall (i) be for terms of at least one (1) year, with
premium paid for such policy as the same become due; (ii) be subject to the reasonable approval of the Agent as to insurance companies, amounts and expiration dates; and (iii) for any Property that is a Borrowing Base Property,
(x) name the Agent, its successors and assigns (A) as an additional insured under all liability insurance policies, and (B) as the first mortgagee, under a standard non-contributory mortgagee clause, on all property insurance policies
and all loss of rents or loss of business income insurance policies, and (y) to the extent reasonably available from the insurance companies or insurance brokers and in compliance with Applicable Law and Acord contracts and policies, contain
provisions providing for written notice to the Agent at least thirty (30) days prior to any cancellation, termination or modification thereof, or of any coverage provided that if such cancellation or termination is due to non-payment of
premiums, the time period for such notice may not be less than ten (10) days.

warehousemen and landlords for labor, materials, supplies and rentals which, if unpaid, might become a Lien on any properties of such Person; provided, however, that this Section shall not require the payment or discharge of any such
tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim which is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings which operate to suspend the collection thereof and for which adequate reserves have been established on the books of such Person, in accordance
with GAAP; provided further that upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any Lien that may have attached as security therefor, such Person either (A) will provide a bond or other security sufficient under applicable law
to stay all such proceedings or (B) if no such bond is provided, will pay each such tax, assessment, governmental charge, levy or claim. With respect to each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary of an Obligor, the Borrower shall cause
each such Subsidiary to pay, discharge or cause to be paid and discharged when due the items set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above subject to the provisos contained therein and where the failure to make such payments or cause such
payments to be made could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor. 

  
 82 









 Section 7.7   Visits and Inspections. 

The Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor and each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each other Obligor to, permit
representatives or agents of any Lender or the Agent, from time to time, as often as may be reasonably requested, but only during normal business hours and at the expense of such Lender or the Agent (unless a Default or Event of Default shall be
continuing, in which case the exercise by the Agent or such Lender of its rights under this Section shall be at the expense of the Borrower), as the case may be, to: (a) visit and inspect all Borrowing Base Properties (but subject to the rights
of tenants under their leases) to the extent any such right to visit or inspect is within the control of such Person; (b) inspect and make extracts from their respective books and records, including but not limited to management letters
prepared by independent accountants; and (c) discuss with its principal officers, and its independent accountants, its business, properties, condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations and performance. If requested by the Agent,
the Borrower shall execute an authorization letter addressed to its accountants authorizing the Agent or any Lender to discuss the financial affairs of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any Subsidiary of Borrower or any other Obligor with its
accountants. 
 Section 7.8   Use of Proceeds; Letters of Credit. 

The Borrower shall use the proceeds of all Loans and all Letters of Credit for working capital, capital expenditures and other general
business purposes (including acquisitions permitted hereunder) only. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any other Obligor or any Subsidiary of Borrower or any other Obligor to, use any part of such proceeds or Letters of Credit to purchase
or carry, or to reduce or retire or refinance any credit incurred to purchase or carry, any margin stock (within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Board) or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such
margin stock. 
 Section 7.9   Environmental Matters. 

The Borrower shall, and shall cause all other Obligors and each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each other Obligor to, comply or cause to
be complied with, all Environmental Laws in all material respects; provided, however, that with respect to each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary of an Obligor, the failure, in any such event, with which to comply could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor. If the Borrower, any other Obligor or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Obligor shall (a) receive written notice that any material
violation of any Environmental Law may have been committed or is about to be committed by such Person, (b) receive written notice that any administrative or judicial complaint or order has been filed or is about to be filed against the
Borrower, or any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries alleging material violations of any Environmental Law or requiring the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries to take any action in connection with
the release of Hazardous Materials, or (c) receive any written notice from a Governmental Authority or private party alleging that the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries


  
 83 









 
may be liable or responsible for costs associated with a response to or cleanup of a release of Hazardous Materials or any damages caused thereby individually or in the aggregate in excess of
$2,000,000, the Borrower shall provide the Agent and each Lender with a copy of such notice within thirty (30) days after the receipt thereof by such Person. The Borrower shall, and shall cause the other Obligors and each Subsidiary of the
Borrower or any other Obligor to, take or cause to be taken promptly all commercially reasonable actions necessary to prevent the imposition of any Liens on any of their respective properties arising out of or related to any Environmental Laws;
provided, however, that, (A) as to any Borrowing Base Property, if any such Lien arises due to the acts or omissions of third parties and such Lien (x) together with all other such Liens then in existence, could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (y) has not resulted in foreclosure proceedings with respect to the property in question, the Borrower may pursue claims against such third parties prior to removing such Lien and
(B) as to any other Property, the Borrower shall have no obligation to remove any such Lien to the extent that such Lien, together with all other such Liens then in existence, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

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 this Section 7.12; (iii) the Agent shall

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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the foregoing provisions
shall not apply to the REIT Guarantor, which may only be released upon the prior written consent of Agent and all of the Lenders. Concurrently with any request by the Borrower to release any Guarantor from its Guaranty, the Borrower shall deliver to
the Agent a pro forma Compliance Certificate giving effect to the transaction or other event which forms the basis for the release of the Guarantor from the Guaranty and the removal of the assets of such Guarantor from the calculation of

Property at least sixty (60) days prior to any expiration date of a previously delivered Flood Hazard Determination for such Borrowing Base Property. In addition, if any Borrowing Base Property is located in a special flood hazard area or is
designated as having special flood or mud slide hazards according to FEMA (such property, a “Flood Hazard Property”), then the Borrower shall obtain a flood insurance policy insuring the Agent in an amount sufficient to satisfy the
Flood Laws and acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion. If, after closing, any Borrowing Base Property is remapped and if the applicable Borrowing Base Property is determined to be a Flood Hazard Property, the Borrower shall be required to
obtain and maintain a flood insurance policy in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The Borrower acknowledges that if, within forty-five (45) days of receipt of notification from Agent that any Borrowing Base Property has been
reclassified by the FEMA as being a Flood Hazard Property, the Borrower shall have not provided sufficient evidence of flood insurance, Agent and/or Lenders may be required under federal law to purchase flood insurance on behalf of the Borrower, at
the Borrower’s expense. 
 Section 7.17 Collateral. 

(a) Authorization to File Financing Statements.        Borrower

execute, deliver and cause to be filed Mortgages (or amendments to any existing Mortgages) which are 

  
 86 









 
effective to create in favor of Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien (subject to clauses (a), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of the definition
of Permitted Liens) and security interest in such Property (or such ground leasehold interest in such Property, if applicable), which such Mortgages when filed in the appropriate offices for the locations specified in such Mortgages, shall
constitute a Lien (subject to clauses (a), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of the definition of Permitted Liens) on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the grantors thereunder in such Property (or ground leasehold
interest in such Property, if applicable), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Lien (other than clauses (a), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of the definition of Permitted Liens). 

(c) Release. (i)            Upon receipt of written request from
Borrower or any Obligor, and upon satisfaction of all conditions for the removal of any Property as a Borrowing Base Property set forth in Section 8.5(b), Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) (x) execute,
record and/or file all documents necessary to release the Liens granted to the Agent for the benefit of the Lender herein or pursuant to any Security Document and related solely to such Borrowing Base Property, (y) if the Obligor owning or
ground leasing the Borrowing Base Property to be released owns or ground leases no other Borrowing Base Property, take such actions as shall be required to release its Liens in the Equity Interests granted under the Pledge Agreement in the Obligor
which owned or ground leased such Borrowing Base Property as Collateral and, (z) if the Obligor pledging such Equity Interests is not a Grantor under the Pledge Agreement with respect to any other Collateral, releasing such Obligor as a Grantor
under the Pledge Agreement. 
 (ii) Upon request of the Borrower at any time or from time to time, the Agent
shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its Liens in the Equity Interest granted under the Pledge Agreement in any Subsidiary (x) whose Equity Interests are being disposed
of in a transaction not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, (y) that has become an Excluded Subsidiary or is no longer a Material Subsidiary, or (z) that is the direct or indirect holder of any Equity Interests in a Subsidiary that
has become an Excluded Subsidiary and the grant of such security interest is prohibited by the terms of the documents, instruments, agreement or organizational document described in clause (a)(ii) of the definition of Excluded Subsidiary,
provided, that any such Subsidiary does not own (or ground lease pursuant to an Eligible Ground Lease) any Borrowing Base Property and, if the Obligor pledging such released Equity Interests is not a Grantor under the Pledge Agreement with
respect to any other Collateral, release such Obligor as a Grantor under the Pledge Agreement.

dated the date of the applicable Mortgage, and in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent; and 
 (11) such other

 (ii) Notwithstanding the
foregoing, until such time as there are at least eight (8) Borrowing Base Properties included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value and the Borrowing Base Value exceeds $100,000,000, any Potential Borrowing Base Property must be

shall give written notice to the Agent that it specifically objects to the addition or substitution of any Potential Borrowing Base Property within ten (10) days from the date of such Lender’s receipt of (x) the Borrowing Base
Deliverables set forth in subsections (A)(1)-(3) above, and (y) an Appraisal dated as of a date which is reasonably acceptable to such Lender, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of such addition or substitution, and

(x) each of the Borrowing Base Deliverables, and (y) an Appraisal dated as of a date which is reasonably acceptable to the Agent, the Agent shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of such addition or substitution. 

(b) Removals of Borrowing Base Properties. 

(i) Upon any Borrowing Base Property ceasing to qualify as a Borrowing Base Property or upon the Borrower’s
exclusion of such Borrowing Base Property pursuant to Section 9.13, such Borrowing Base Property shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value. Within ten (10) Business Days after any such disqualification, the

such Borrowing Base Property and (3) the certificates required by Section 8.5(b)(iv). Upon receipt by Agent of (x) (A) notice from Borrower that any disqualified Borrowing Base Property again qualifies as a Borrowing Base
Property and (B) the certificates required by Section 8.5(b)(iv), or (y) notice from Borrower of inclusion under Section 9.13, such Borrowing Base Property shall again be included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value.


  
 93 









 (ii) Subject to Section 8.5(c), the Borrower may voluntarily remove any
Property from Borrowing Base Properties (including as a result of any financing, sale, transfer or other disposition of any Borrowing Base Property in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents) by delivering to the Agent, no later than ten
(10) Business Days prior to the date on which such removal is to be effected (or, in the event such removal shall result from the financing, sale, transfer or other disposition of a Borrowing Base Property, ten (10) Business Days prior to
such proposed sale, transfer or disposition), (x) a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting such removal, together with a statement (A) that no Default or Event of Default then exists or would, upon the occurrence of such event or with the
passage of time, result from such removal, (B) of the identity of the Borrowing Base Property being removed, and (C) the Borrowing Base Value attributable to such Borrowing Base Property and (y) the certificates required by
Section 8.5(b)(iv). 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that
a Property (a “Defaulted Property”) included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value fails to satisfy the requirements set forth in clause (e) of the definition of “Borrowing Base Property” as a result of
conditions existing or effecting such Property for any period of time prior to the acquisition thereof by the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries of which the Borrower had no knowledge (any such failure a
“Replacement Event”), then, if such Replacement Event results in a Default, the Borrower shall have forty-five (45) days from the earlier of (x) the date the Agent notifies the Borrower that a Replacement Event has
occurred or (y) the date the Borrower notifies the Agent that a Replacement Event has occurred in which to identify one or more Potential Borrowing Base Property(s) to cure such Default by replacing the Defaulted Property as a Borrowing Base
Property and delivering to the Agent those items specified in Sections 8.5(a)(i) and (a)(ii) and Section 8.5(b)(iv) with respect thereto and otherwise satisfy all conditions to such Property being accepted as a Borrowing Base Property pursuant
to this Agreement (the “Replacement Conditions”). 
 For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Borrower
fails to comply with the Replacement Conditions within the time periods set forth above, the right of the Borrower to cure such Default as provided in this Section 8.5(b)(iii) shall cease, and thereupon the Agent and the Lenders shall have any
and all rights and remedies with respect to such Replacement Event as may be available under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (iv) Simultaneously with the delivery of the items required pursuant to Sections 8.5(b)(i), (ii) and (iii), the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent (A) a pro forma Compliance Certificate
demonstrating, upon giving effect to such removal, replacement, disqualification, or re-qualification (as the case may be), compliance with the requirements and covenants contained in Section 2.13 and Sections 9.1 through 9.3, 9.5 and 9.13 on a
pro forma basis based 

  
 94 









 
upon the most recent financial statements available under Section 8.1 or 8.2, together with supporting calculations and (B) a Minimum Borrowing Base Certificate. 

(c) Minimum Borrowing Base Properties.    Subject to this Section 8.5, the Borrower shall
not, and shall not permit any other Obligor or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any other Obligor to, 
 (i)
sell, transfer, encumber with a Lien or otherwise dispose of any Borrowing Base Property included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value; or 
 (ii) remove any Borrowing Base Property from the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value pursuant to (b)(ii); or 
 (iii) substitute any Potential Borrowing Base Property(s) for any existing Borrowing Base Properties; 
 unless, immediately following such sale, transfer, disposition, removal or substitution (x) there shall be at least eight (8) Borrowing Base Properties included in the calculation of the
Borrowing Base Value and (y) the Borrowing Base Value would be at least $300,000,000 (the “Minimum Borrowing Base Requirements”). Simultaneously with any such proposed sale, transfer, disposition, removal or substitution, the
Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate (a “Minimum Borrowing Base Certificate”) of a Responsible Officer of the REIT Guarantor certifying compliance with the Minimum Borrowing Base Requirements. 

(d) Updated Appraisals.  Agent, in its sole discretion, shall have the right to have, or have its
counsel have, an updated Appraisal prepared (i) at Borrower’s expense, for any Borrowing Base Property whose most recent appraisal is dated more than twelve (12) months prior to the date of the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate
and (ii) at Lenders’ expense, for any Borrowing Base Property at any other time. Borrower shall, at all times, cooperate with any reasonable requests in connection with the completion of such updated Appraisals. In addition, Borrower may,
at its option at any time, request that Agent obtain, at Borrower’s expense, an updated Appraisal of any Borrowing Base Property.

 Section 10.3 Allocation of Proceeds. 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and maturity of any of the Obligations has been accelerated, all payments
received by the Agent under any of the Loan Documents, in respect of any principal of or interest on the Obligations or any other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, shall be applied in the following order and priority:

 (a) first, to amounts due to the Agent and the Lenders in respect of fees and expenses due under
Sections 3.6 and 12.2; 
 (b) second, to payments of interest on Swingline Loans; 

(c) third, to payments of interest on all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to be applied for the ratable
benefit of the Lenders, pro rata among the Lenders based upon the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (and as to the Revolving Loans, first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Rate Loans); 

(d) fourth, to payments of principal of Swingline Loans; 

(e) fifth, to payments of principal of all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to be applied for the
ratable benefit of the Lenders, pro rata among the Lenders based upon the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (and as to the Revolving Loans, first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Rate Loans); 

(f) sixth, to amounts to be deposited into the Collateral Account in respect of Letters of Credit (to be applied
as provided in Section 10.4); 
 (g) seventh, to amounts due the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to
Sections 11.7 and 12.9;

(i) ninth, to any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall be paid to the Borrower or whomever
else may be legally entitled thereto. 
 Section 10.4 Collateral Account. 

(a) As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the other
Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders as provided herein, a security 

  
 113









 
interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein
provided for below). The balances from time to time in the Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities until applied by the Agent as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
funds held in the Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section and in Section 2.7(b), 2.12 and 3.11. Amounts shall be deposited into the Collateral Account as provided in Sections 2.7(b), 2.12, 3.11, 10.2
and 10.3. 
 (b) Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Agent in
such Cash Equivalents as the Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such deposits, investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Agent. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes
Agent to exercise any and all rights of the Borrower in respect of the Collateral Account and to give all instructions, directions and entitlement orders in respect thereof as Agent shall deem necessary or desirable. Agent is authorized by the
Borrower to file such financing statements as Agent may deem necessary in connection with the perfection of the security interests in the Collateral Account. The Borrower agrees to do such further acts and things, and to execute and deliver such
additional documents as Agent may reasonably request at any time in connection with the administration or enforcement of its rights with respect to the Collateral Account. For the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code, Georgia shall be deemed to
be the location and jurisdiction of Agent, the Collateral Account and any securities entitlements relating thereto. The Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Collateral Account and shall be
deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Agent accords other funds deposited with the Agent, it being understood that the 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 Collateral Account. 
 (c) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Requisite Lenders may, in their discretion, at any time and from time to time, instruct the Agent to liquidate any such investments
and reinvestments and credit the proceeds thereof to the Collateral Account and apply or cause to be applied such proceeds and any other balances in the Collateral Account for the ratable benefit of the Lenders to the payment of any of the Letter of
Credit Liabilities due and payable. 
 (d) If (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing and (ii) all of the Letter of Credit Liabilities have been paid in full, the Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or
representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Collateral Account as exceed the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time. 

  
 114









 (e) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent from time to time such fees as the
Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Agent’s administration of the Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein. 
 Section 10.5 Performance by Agent. 
 If the Borrower shall fail to
perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Agent may perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth
herein. In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default
Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the 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 10.6 Rights Cumulative. 

The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents 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 Agent and the Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the Agent 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 AGENT 
 Section 11.1 Authorization and Action. 
 Each Lender hereby appoints
and authorizes the 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 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 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 (including the use of the term “Agent”) shall be construed to deem the Agent a trustee or
fiduciary for any Lender nor to impose on the Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. At the request of a Lender, the Agent will forward to such Lender copies or, where appropriate, originals of the documents
delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such 

  
 115









 
Lender, a copy of any certificate or notice furnished to the Agent by the Borrower, any Obligor or any other Affiliate of the Borrower or any Obligor, 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 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 Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the 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 Agent shall not 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 so
directed the Agent to exercise such right or remedy. The Borrower may rely on written amendments or waivers executed by Agent or acts taken by Agent as being authorized by the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable, to the extent Agent does
not advise Borrower that it has not obtained such authorization from the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable. 

Section 11.2 Agent’s Reliance, Etc. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken
or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any
Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for
the Borrower or any other Obligor), 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; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statements, warranties or representations made by any Person in or in connection with this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any 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 inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (e) shall not be responsible to any
Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the
perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such 

  
 116









 
collateral; and (f) shall incur no 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 or telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties. 

Section 11.3 Notice of Defaults. 
 The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be
paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the 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 the Agent receives such a “notice of default”, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 
 Section 11.4 Regions Bank, as Lender. 
 Regions, as a Lender, shall
have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated, include Regions in each case in its individual capacity. Regions 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 Obligor or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Agent and any
affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders. 

Section 11.5 Approvals of Lenders. 
 All communications from the Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval, including amendments, waivers and consents under Section 12.6,
(a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender
where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to
such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in
respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within twenty (20) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication. Except as
otherwise provided in this Agreement and except with respect to items requiring the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders under Section 12.6, unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Agent that it specifically


  
 117









 
objects to the recommendation or determination of the Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the applicable time period for reply, 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 Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties as to the financial condition, operations, creditworthiness, solvency or other information concerning the business or
affairs of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person to such Lender and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any
such representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees
and agents, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Obligors, and their respective Subsidiaries, or any other Affiliate thereof, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the
Borrower, the Obligors, their respective 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, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other
Lender or counsel to the 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. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall
have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective
Subsidiaries or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent’s legal counsel in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender. 
 Section 11.7 Indemnification of Agent. 
 Each Lender agrees to
indemnify the 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 Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be 

  
 118









 
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent (in its capacity as 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 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 Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or if the Agent fails to follow the written direction of the Requisite Lenders unless such failure is pursuant to the reasonable advice of counsel of which
the Lenders have received notice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the preceding provision, each Lender agrees to reimburse the 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 reasonable counsel fees of the counsel(s) of the Agent’s own choosing) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation,
negotiation, execution, administration or enforcement 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 Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents
and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the 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 Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Agent that the
Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the 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 Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable
Amount pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment. 
 Section 11.8 Successor Agent. 
 The Agent may resign at any time as
Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Agent may be removed as Agent under the Loan Documents by the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Agent) as a result of
(i) its gross negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) it being a Defaulting Lender or meeting the criteria of a Defaulting Lender. The Agent may be removed as Agent under the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the Requisiste Lenders as a
result of it being a Defaulting Lender or meeting the criteria of a Defaulting Lender. Any such removal or resignation shall also constitute Agent’s resignation as Swingline Lender and may, at such Agent’s option, also constitute its
resignation as Issuing Lender. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as Agent, in the case of the removal of the Agent under the immediately preceding sentence) shall have the right to appoint
a successor Agent and Swingline Lender, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least 

  
 119









 
$5,000,000,000, which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 (and its affiliates) holding at least ten percent (10%) of the Aggregate Commitment (calculated at the time Agent gives notice of its
resignation) as a successor Agent and Swingline Lender). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the
resigning Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Lenders’ removal of the resigning Agent, then the resigning or removed Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be
willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $5,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent or Swingline Lender hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent and
Swingline Lender shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents as Agent and
Swingline Lender. After any Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XI and all provisions of this Agreement relating to Swingline Loans shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent or Swingline Lender under the Loan Documents. 
 Section 11.9 Titled
Agents. 
 Each of the Titled Agents in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligations 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 of “Joint Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner” and “Syndication Agent”
are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Agent, the Borrower or any Lender 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 11.10 Other Loans by Lenders to Obligors. 
 The Lenders agree that one or more of them may now or hereafter have other loans to and derivative contracts and/or business arrangements with one or more of the Obligors which are not subject to this
Agreement. The Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors may collect payments on such loan(s) and may secure such loan(s) (so long as such loan does not itself expressly violate this Agreement). Further, the
Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors shall have no obligation to attempt to collect payments under the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in preference and priority over the collection and/or enforcement
of such other loan(s).

and interpretation of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any of the Loan Documents (including due diligence expenses and travel expenses relating to closing), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including

reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with any bankruptcy or other proceeding of the type described in Sections 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), including the


  
 122









 
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and any Lender, whether such fees and expenses are incurred prior to, during or after the commencement of such proceeding or the
confirmation or conclusion of any such proceeding. If the Borrower shall fail to pay any amounts required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section, the Agent and/or the Lenders may pay such amounts on behalf of the Borrower and either deem the same
to be Loans outstanding hereunder or otherwise Obligations owing hereunder. 
 Section 12.3 Setoff. 

Subject to Section 3.3 and in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of
any such rights, the Agent, each Lender and each Participant is hereby authorized by the Borrower, at any time or from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such
notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender and Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general
or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent, such Lender or 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. Promptly following any such set-off the Agent shall notify the Borrower thereof and of the application of such set-off, provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not invalidate such set-off. The foregoing shall not apply to any account governed by a written agreement containing express waivers by the Agent or any Lender with respect to rights of setoff. 

Section 12.4 Governing Law; Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers. 

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL
IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, APPLIED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (OTHER THAN THOSE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT
WOULD DEFER TO THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION). WITHOUT IN ANY WAY LIMITING THE PRECEDING CHOICE OF LAW, THE PARTIES ELECT TO BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW. 

(b) WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR THE OTHER LOAN
DOCUMENTS, BORROWER (A) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE 

  
 123









 
SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF, AND (B) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING ON VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR
PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN
INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE LENDER FROM BRINGING AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT HERETO IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 

(c) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR
NOTICES IN SECTION 12.1. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 
 Section 12.5 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement 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. 

(b) Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of
an affiliate of such Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to the Borrower. 

(c) Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a
“Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or the Obligations owing to such Lender; provided, however, any such participating interest must be for a constant and not a varying percentage interest. Except
as otherwise provided in Section 12.3 and this Section 12.5, no Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.12 and Article IV hereof to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a
Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder
including, without limitation, the right to approve any 

  
 124









 
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the
Participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest
on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors
(except as otherwise permitted under Section 7.12(b)). An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by Section 12.5(d) or (e) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating
interest granted in accordance with this subsection (c). The selling Lender shall notify the Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation hereunder and, if requested by the Agent, certify to the Agent that such participation is permitted
hereunder. 
 (d) Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the
Swingline Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”)
all or a portion of its Commitment and its other rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes; provided, however, (i) no such consent by the Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Borrower shall be
required in the case of any assignment to another Lender or any affiliate of such Lender or of another Lender unless such Lender is a Defaulting Lender; (ii) any partial assignment of a Commitment shall be in an amount at least equal to
$5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and, after giving effect to such partial assignment, the assigning Lender retains a portion of the Commitment so assigned having an aggregate outstanding principal balance of at least
$5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless waived by the Agent in its sole discretion, and provided, however, the conditions set forth in this subsection (ii) shall not apply (A) to any full
assignment by any Lender of its Commitment or (B) after any of the Commitments have been terminated; and (iii) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, substantially in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall
be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement as of the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection
(d), the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate, and any other documents reasonably required by a Lender in connection
with such assignment shall be executed by the Borrower. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500. 

  
 125









 (e) The Agent shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Agent shall
give each Lender and the Borrower notice of the assignment by any Lender of its rights as contemplated by this Section. The Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for
all purposes of this Agreement. The Register and copies of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the
Agent. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by an assigning Lender, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been completed and if the Agent
receives the processing and recording fee described in Section 12.5(d) above, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof
to the Borrower. 
 (f) In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing
provisions of this Section, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank,
and such Loans and Notes shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 (g) A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees
and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants) subject to compliance with Section 12.8. 
 (h) Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their
respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (i) Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the
Borrower and the 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. 
 Section 12.6 Amendments.

 Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement
or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan 

  
 126









 
Document may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document
or 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 (and, in the case of an
amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of the Borrower), provided, however, no amendment, waiver or consent shall do any of the following, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender: (i) waive any
provisions contained in Section 5.1 hereof; (ii) modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders”, modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders (including all of the Lenders) required to make any
determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof, including without limitation, any modification of this Section if such modification would have such effect; (iii) release any Guarantor from its obligations under
the Guaranty (except as permitted under Section 7.12(b)); (iv) release Borrower from it obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents; (v) consent to the release of any Collateral (except in connection with a sale or
disposition not prohibited hereunder or as otherwise provided hereunder); or (vi) (A) change the Commitment Percentages (or any component thereof) (except as a result of any increase or decrease in the aggregate amount of the Commitments
contemplated by Sections 2.11 and 4.5 or as a result of any reallocation contemplated by Section 3.11) or (B) amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 3.2(a); and provided, further, no amendment, waiver or
consent shall do any of the following, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby: (i) except as provided in Section 2.11(b) hereof, increase the Commitments (or any component thereof) of any Lender;
(ii) reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or Fees or other Obligations; (iii) reduce the amount of any Fees payable hereunder;
(iv) except as provided in Section 2.6(b) hereof, postpone any date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loans or any other Obligations; or (v) except as provided in Section 2.3, extend the expiration
date of any Letter of Credit beyond twelve months after the Maturity Date; and provided, further, no amendment, waiver or consent shall modify the definitions of “Borrowing Base Availability,” “Borrowing Base
Property” or “Borrowing Base Value”, or the provisions of Sections 2.13(a) or 8.5 without the written consent of the Agent and each Lender. 
 Further, no amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Agent
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.2, Section 3.11 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 2.3, Section 3.11 or the obligations or rights of the Issuing Lender under
this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Issuing Lender. 

  
 127









 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 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 Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 Section 12.7 Nonliability of Agent and Lenders.

 The relationship between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Agent shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither
the Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower 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 Agent or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the Agent nor 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 12.8
Confidentiality. 
 (a) Each of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory
authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit,
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its
obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Agent, the Issuing Lender
or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided that the source of such information was not known by the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other
legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other
than any such information that is 

  
 128









 
available to the Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower. 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. 
 (b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 12.8(a) FURNISHED TO IT
PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 

(c) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE AGENT PURSUANT TO,
OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS
TO THE BORROWER AND THE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

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 Agent’s or any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower;

respective Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Agent 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, the other Obligors and their
respective Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or (ix) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower,

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 cause the Borrower, the Obligors or
their respective Subsidiaries (or their respective properties) (or the Agent and/or the Lenders as successors to the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective Subsidiaries) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party (x) for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party (including all directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel of such Indemnified
Party) that constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods or (y) in connection with any losses, costs, claims, damages,
liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses arising out of any action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding brought by any Indemnified Party against any other Indemnified Party in connection with,
arising out of, or by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or 

  
 130

payment of any settlement of any Indemnity Proceeding effected without Borrower’s written consent, but if the same is settled with such consent, Borrower agrees that such settlement is covered by the foregoing indemnity. 

(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 reasonable costs and expenses 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, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any shareholder, partner or other equity holder of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries (whether such shareholder(s) or such

 (d) All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an Indemnified Party with respect to an Indemnity Proceeding 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. 

(e) 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 reasonable costs and expenses 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. 

  
 131









 (f) If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower hereunder 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. 

(g) The Borrower’s obligations hereunder 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 other of their obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement. 

Section 12.11        Severability of Provisions. 

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective

Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be

 132









 
respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually

by the other Obligors and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the other Obligors as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Obligors or Subsidiaries.

Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby. 

Section 12.16        Entire Agreement. 

This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents referred to herein and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees embody
the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted
or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.

Section 12.20        Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. 

(a) As stated in the preamble hereof, this Agreement is intended to amend, restate, replace and renew the provisions of
the Existing Credit Agreement and, except as expressly modified herein, (i) all of the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue to apply for the period prior to the Effective Date, including any determinations of
payment dates, interest rates, Events of Default or any amount that may be payable to the Agent or the Lenders, (ii) the Obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue to be paid or prepaid on or prior to the Effective Date in
accordance with the Existing Credit Agreement, and shall from and after the Effective Date continue to be owing and be subject to the terms of this Agreement, (iii) this Agreement shall not be deemed to evidence or result in a novation or
repayment of the Loans and borrowings hereunder, and (iv) the execution and delivery of this Agreement is not intended to effect a novation and shall not be deemed or construed as a novation, and all Obligations under the Existing Credit

without further amendment thereof. All Obligations of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be governed by this Agreement from and after the Effective Date. The Existing Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

security and confirms and agrees that such Liens and security interests secure all of the Obligations and remain in full force and effect after giving effect to this Agreement. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not

except as specifically set forth therein. 
 Section 12.21        Confirmation

 EXHIBIT B 
 FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT 
 THIS AMENDED
AND RESTATED CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of June 29, 2011, by and among Wells Core Office Income Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”) and
the parties executing this agreement as Guarantors (such parties are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Guarantors”; the Borrower and the Guarantors are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as a “Contributing
Party” and collectively as the “Contributing Parties”). 
 WHEREAS, the parties hereto are party to
that certain Contribution Agreement dated November 19, 2010 (as amended, modified or restated from time to time, the “Existing Contribution Agreement”) pursuant to which the Contributing Parties have agreed to the contribution
and indemnification provisions set forth therein; 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
dated as of June 29, 2011 by and among the Borrower, the financial institutions party thereto and their assignees under Section 12.5 thereof (the “Lenders”) and Regions Bank, as Agent (the “Agent”) (such
agreement, as the same may have been or may from time to time be amended, modified, restated or extended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”), the Lenders have agreed to extend financial accommodations to the
Borrower; 
 WHEREAS, as a condition to the execution of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have required that the Guarantors
execute and deliver that certain Amended and Restated Guaranty dated as of the date hereof (such agreement, as the same may have been or may from time to time be amended, modified, restated or extended, being hereinafter referred to as the
“Guaranty”); 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Guaranty, the Guarantors have jointly and severally guaranteed the
obligations described in the Guaranty (the “Guaranty Obligations”); 
 WHEREAS, as a condition to the execution
of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders and the Agent have required that the Borrower and certain Obligors execute that certain Amended and Restated Pledge Agreement dated as of the date hereof (such agreement, as the same may have been or may from
time to time be amended, modified, restated or extended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Pledge Agreement”) pledging the Equity Interests (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) as security for the Secured Obligations (as defined
in the Pledge Agreement) for the benefit of the Agent; 
 WHEREAS, the Lenders and the Agent have required that each of the
Guarantors owning a Borrowing Base Property (as defined in the Credit Agreement) execute and deliver a Mortgage (collectively, and as the same may have been or may from time to time be amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified,
the “Mortgages” and, together with the Guaranty and the Pledge Agreement, the “Security Documents”) encumbering the Borrowing Base Property owned by such Guarantor as


  
 Exh. B-1









 
security for payment of the Obligations of the Borrower and the other Obligations of any such Guarantor under its Mortgage (the “Mortgage Secured Obligations” and together with
the Guaranty Obligations and the Secured Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”); 
 WHEREAS, either
(i) the Borrower or its .01% general partner is the owner, directly or indirectly, of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests in each Guarantor, or (ii) the REIT Guarantor is the owner, directly or indirectly, of
a substantial amount of the Equity Interests in the Borrower; 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, though
separate legal entities, are mutually dependent upon each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interest to obtain financing from the Agent and the Lenders
through their collective efforts; 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Guarantors will derive substantial direct or indirect
economic benefit from the effectiveness and existence of the Credit Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the Credit
Agreement, the Contributing Parties and the Agent have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Contribution Agreement in its entirety as, and in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions, set forth herein. 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained, it is agreed as follows: 

1.    Amended and Restated Contribution Agreement.    As stated in the preamble hereof,
this Agreement is intended to amend, restate, replace and renew the provisions of the Existing Contribution Agreement and, except as expressly modified herein, (i) all of the terms and provisions of the Existing Contribution Agreement shall
continue to apply for the period prior to the Effective Date, (ii) this Agreement shall not be deemed to evidence or result in a novation of the Existing Contribution Agreement, and (iii) the execution and delivery of this Agreement is not
intended to effect a novation and shall not be deemed or construed as a novation, but all obligations under the Existing Contribution Agreement shall in all respects be continuing as obligations under this Agreement. 

2.    Definitions.    Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement. 

3.    Contribution.    To the extent that a Contributing Party shall, under the Guaranty,
make a payment (a “Guarantor Payment”) of a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, then such Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, the other Contributing Parties in an amount
equal to the amount derived by subtracting from any such Guarantor Payment the “Allocable Amount” (as defined 

  
 Exh. B-2









 
herein) of such Contributing Party; provided, however, that no Contributing Party shall be liable hereunder for contribution, indemnification, subrogation or reimbursement with
respect to any Guarantor Payment for any amounts in excess of the “Allocable Amount” (as defined herein) for such Contributing Party. 
 As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Contributing Party shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability which could be asserted against such Contributing Party
hereunder with respect to the applicable Guarantor Payment without (i) rendering such Contributing Party “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or
Section 2 of either the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the “UFTA”) or the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the “UFCA”) or the fraudulent conveyance and transfer laws of the State of New York or such other
jurisdiction whose laws shall be determined to apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws”), (ii) leaving such Contributing Party with unreasonably small capital,
within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws, or (iii) leaving such Contributing Party unable to pay its debts as
they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 6 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws. 

4.    No Impairment.    This Agreement is intended only to define the relative rights of
the Contributing Parties, and nothing set forth in this Agreement is intended to or shall reduce or impair the obligations of the Guarantors to pay any amounts, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the
Guaranty. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets in favor of Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. 

5.    Effectiveness.    This Agreement shall become effective upon its execution by each
of the parties hereto and shall continue in full force and effect and may not be amended, terminated or otherwise revoked by any Contributing Party until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full (in lawful money of
the United States of America) and discharged and the Credit Agreement and financing arrangements evidenced and governed by the Credit Agreement shall have been terminated, except as to any Guarantor upon its release from the Guaranty under the terms
of the Credit Agreement or as approved by all of the Lenders. Each Contributing Party agrees that if, notwithstanding the foregoing, such Contributing Party shall have any right under applicable law to terminate or revoke this Agreement, and such
Contributing Party shall attempt to exercise such right, then such termination or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation or termination, specifically referring hereto and signed by such Contributing Party, is
actually received by each of the other Contributing Parties and by the Agent at its notice address set forth in the Credit Agreement. Such notice shall not affect the right or power of any Contributing Party to enforce rights arising prior to
receipt of such written notice by each of the other Contributing Parties and the Agent. If any Lender or the Agent grants additional loans or financial accommodations to the Borrower or takes other action giving rise to additional


  
 Exh. B-3









 
Guaranteed Obligations after any Contributing Party has exercised any right to terminate or revoke this Agreement but before the Agent receives such written notice, the rights of the other
Contributing Parties to contribution and indemnification hereunder in connection with any Guarantor Payments made with respect to such loans or Guaranteed Obligations shall be the same as if such termination or revocation had not occurred.

 6.    Governing Law.    TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF THE
PARTIES HERETO HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK
PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 7.    Third Party
Beneficiary.    The Contributing Parties agree that the Agent has a valid interest in the terms of this Agreement pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty. The Contributing Parties further agree that until all
obligations of the Contributing Parties under the Credit Agreement and the Security Documents are fully performed and the obligations of the Lenders to extend Loans and issue Letters of Credit has terminated, the Agent shall be an express third
party beneficiary of this Agreement with the right to enforce the terms and provisions hereof. 

8.    Counterparts.    This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be executed in several
counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In proving the Agreement it shall not be necessary to produce or
account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

 (x) claims or rights of set-off defense or

 (y) any law, regulation, decree or order of
any jurisdiction or any event affecting any provision of the Guarantied Obligations; or

(f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Agent shall elect. 

  
 Exh. C-5









 Section 6. Representations and Warranties.    Each Guarantor
hereby makes to the Credit 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. In addition to making all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower with respect to each Guarantor in the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor represents and warrants that: (a) this Guaranty: (i) has been authorized by
all necessary action of the Guarantor; (ii) (1) does not conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or other instrument to which any Guarantor is a party; and (2) does not violate any
Applicable Law applicable to the Guarantor; (iii) does not require any Governmental Approval relating to any Guarantor; and (iv) is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance
with its terms except to the extent that enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting creditor’s rights generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain
obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein may be limited by equitable principles generally; and (b) in executing and delivering this Guaranty, the Guarantor has (i) without reliance on the Credit Parties
or any information received from the Credit Parties and based upon such documents and information it deems appropriate, made an independent investigation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Borrower, the Borrower’s business, assets,
operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise, and any circumstances which may bear upon such transactions, the Borrower or the obligations and risks undertaken herein with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) adequate
means to obtain from the Borrower on a continuing basis information concerning the Borrower; (iii) full and complete access to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iv) not relied and will not rely upon any
representations or warranties of the Credit Parties not embodied herein or any acts heretofore or hereafter taken by the Credit Parties (including but not limited to any review by the Credit Parties of the affairs of the Borrower). The REIT
Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the REIT Guarantor is the general partner of the Borrower and owns (directly or indirectly) a substantial amount of the partnership interests in the Borrower and is financially interested in its affairs.
All representations and warranties made under this Guaranty shall be deemed to be made at and as of the date of this Guaranty, the Effective Date and the date of the occurrence of any Credit Event, 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 accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically permitted
hereunder or under the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 7. Covenants.    Each Guarantor will perform
and comply with all covenants applicable to such Guarantor, or which the Borrower is required to cause such Guarantor to comply with under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as if the same were more fully set forth
herein. 

  
 Exh. C-6









 Section 8. 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. Each Guarantor also waives the right to require the Agent to proceed first against the Borrower upon the Guaranteed
Obligations before proceeding against such Guarantor hereunder. 
 Section 9. Reinstatement of Guarantied
Obligations.    If a claim is ever made on a Credit Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and such Credit 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 such Credit 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, any release
herefrom, or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated and such Guarantor shall be and
remain liable to the Credit Parties for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to such Credit Party. 
 Section 10. Avoidance.  As of any date of determination, the maximum obligation of each Guarantor shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount of liability which could be asserted
against such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Credit Parties) without (i) rendering such Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (the
“Bankruptcy Code”) or Section 2 of either the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the “UFTA”) or the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the “UFCA”) or the fraudulent conveyance and transfer laws
of the State of New York or such other jurisdiction whose laws shall be determined to apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws”), (ii) leaving such Guarantor
with unreasonably small capital, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws, or (iii) leaving such Guarantor
unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 6 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws. This Section is intended solely
to preserve the rights of the Credit Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder to be unenforceable or subject to avoidance, and neither a Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any
right or claim under this Section as against the Credit Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person. 

Section 11. No Contest with Credit Parties; Subordination.     So long as any Guarantied Obligation
remains unpaid or undischarged, Guarantors will not, by paying 

  
 Exh. C-7









 
any sum recoverable hereunder (whether or not demanded by any Credit Party) or by any means or on any other ground, claim any set-off or counterclaim against the Borrower in respect of any
liability of Guarantors to the Borrower or, in proceedings under federal bankruptcy law or insolvency proceedings of any nature, prove in competition with any Credit Party in respect of any payment hereunder or be entitled to have the benefit of any
counterclaim or proof of claim or dividend or payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or the benefit of any other security for any obligation hereby guaranteed which, now or hereafter, any Credit Party may hold or in which it may have any share.
Except as expressly provided in the Contribution Agreement, so long as any Guarantied Obligation remains unpaid or undischarged, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive any right of contribution from or indemnity against the Borrower, whether at law
or in equity, arising from any payments made by Guarantors pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty, and the Guarantors acknowledge that the Guarantors have no right whatsoever to proceed against the Borrower for reimbursement of any such payments. In
connection with the foregoing, the Guarantors expressly waive any and all rights of subrogation to the Credit Parties against the Borrower, and the Guarantors hereby waive any rights to enforce any remedy which a Credit Party may have against the
Borrower and any rights to participate in any collateral for the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. The Guarantors hereby subordinate any and all indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owed to the Guarantors to all
indebtedness of the Borrower to the Credit Parties, and agree with the Credit Parties that (a) the Guarantors shall not demand or accept any payment from the Borrower on account of such indebtedness, (b) the Guarantors shall not claim any
offset or other reduction of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness, and (c) the Guarantors shall not take any action to obtain any interest in any of the security described in and encumbered by the Loan
Documents because of any such indebtedness; provided, however, that, if a Credit Party so requests, such indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantors as trustee for the Credit Parties and be paid over to the
Credit Parties on account of the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Credit Parties, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantors under the other provisions of this Guaranty except to the extent the principal
amount of such outstanding indebtedness shall have been reduced by such payment. 
 Section 12. 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), and if any Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by a Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding, such Guarantor shall pay to the Credit Parties such additional amount as will result in the receipt
by the Credit Parties of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required. Whenever any Tax is paid by any Guarantor, as promptly as possible thereafter, such Guarantor shall send the Agent an
official receipt showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as may be reasonably required from time to time by the Agent. 
 Section 13. 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


  
 Exh. C-8









 
rights, each Guarantor hereby authorizes the Credit Parties, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, 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 Credit Party other than the Agent subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all
deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Credit Party or any affiliate of such Credit
Party, to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor held at any of the offices of the Agent, 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 set off 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. The foregoing shall not apply to any account governed by a written agreement containing an express waiver by such Participant of such Participant’s rights of setoff. 

Section 14. Business Failure, Bankruptcy or Insolvency.  In the event of the business failure of any Guarantor or
if there shall be pending any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding with respect to any Guarantor under federal bankruptcy law or any other Applicable Law or in connection with the insolvency of any Guarantor, or if a liquidator, receiver, or
trustee shall have been appointed for any Guarantor or any Guarantor’s properties or assets, the Credit Parties may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of such
Person allowed in any proceedings relative to such Guarantor, or any of such Guarantor’s properties or assets, and, irrespective of whether the indebtedness or other obligations of the Borrower guaranteed hereby shall then be due and payable,
by declaration or otherwise, the Credit Parties shall be entitled and empowered to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any sums or sums owing with respect to the indebtedness or other obligations of the Borrower guaranteed hereby, and to
collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim. The Guarantors covenant and agree that upon the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding by or against the Borrower, the Guarantors
shall not seek a supplemental stay or otherwise pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”), or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory,
common law, case law, or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable, to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of the Credit Parties to enforce any rights of such
Person against Guarantors by virtue of this Guaranty or otherwise. If a Credit Party is prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or
otherwise, the Credit 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 15. ADDITIONAL GUARANTORS; RELEASE OF GUARANTORS. SECTION 7.12 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT CERTAIN
MATERIAL SUBSIDIARIES MUST BECOME GUARANTORS BY, AMONG 

  
 Exh. C-9









 
OTHER THINGS, EXECUTING AND DELIVERING TO AGENT A JOINDER AGREEMENT. ANY SUBSIDIARY WHICH EXECUTES AND DELIVERS TO THE AGENT A JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE A GUARANTOR FOR ALL PURPOSES HEREUNDER.
UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN SECTION 7.12(B) OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, CERTAIN SUBSIDIARIES MAY OBTAIN FROM THE AGENT A WRITTEN RELEASE FROM THIS GUARANTY PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH SECTION, AND UPON OBTAINING SUCH WRITTEN
RELEASE, ANY SUCH SUBSIDIARY SHALL NO LONGER BE A GUARANTOR HEREUNDER. EACH OTHER GUARANTOR CONSENTS AND AGREES TO ANY SUCH RELEASE AND AGREES THAT NO SUCH RELEASE SHALL AFFECT ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER. 

Section 16. Information.    Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself
informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Guarantors, 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 none of the Credit Parties 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 PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT
THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS GUARANTY. 
 Section 18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; ETC. 

(a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY
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 CREDIT PARTIES AND EACH GUARANTOR 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 THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY OF ANY KIND OR NATURE. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE GUARANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL
PROCESS (WHETHER FROM SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OF A JUDGMENT, 

  
 Exh. C-10









 
EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE), THE GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY. 

(b) EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE AGENT AND EACH OTHER CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE
COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY
OTHER CREDIT PARTY, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY, THE LOANS, THE LETTERS OF CREDIT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM. EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND
CONSENTS 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 AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY
OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT 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 AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY. 

Section 19. Loan Accounts.    Each Credit 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, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of the Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the
entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the amounts and other matters set forth herein. The failure of a Credit 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 a
Credit 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 a Credit 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. The remedies provided in this guaranty are not cumulative. 

  
 Exh. C-11

full force and effect until indefeasible payment in full of the Guarantied Obligations, the cancellation of all Letters of Credit 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 Agent or the other Credit Parties
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 permitted successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding. The Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender may, in accordance with the applicable

discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. Each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Agent or any Lender 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.

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

(including without limitation reasonable fees and charges of external legal counsel for the Agent and costs allocated by its internal legal department) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, performance or enforcement of this

other communication shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted; or (iii) if hand delivered, when delivered; provided, however, that any notice of a change of address for notices

arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Each Guarantor hereby waives, releases,
and agrees not to sue the Agent, any other Credit Party or any of such Person’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way
related to, this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by Credit Agreement or financed thereby.
