Agreement permits the Borrower to amend the Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Repriced Term Lenders, (i) to refinance the Existing Term Loans with the proceeds of the Second
Repriced Term Loans, which constitute Refinancing Term Loans under the Credit Agreement and (ii) to effect such other amendments to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion
of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement; and

provided, however, that the Effective Yield applicable thereto (as determined on the date of initial incurrence thereof) may not be more than 0.50% higher than the Effective Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans (as determined on such
date) unless the Applicable Rate with respect to the Initial Term Loans is adjusted to be equal to such Effective Yield with respect to such Incremental Term Loans, minus, 0.50%.”. 

SECTION 4.    Second Repriced Term Loans. 

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein (i) each Continuing Term Lender agrees to continue all
(or such lesser amount as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date) of its Existing Term Loans as a Second Repriced Term Loan on the Second Amendment Effective Date in a principal amount equal
to such Continuing Term Lender’s Repriced Term Commitment (as defined below); and (ii) each Additional Term Lender agrees to make a Second Repriced Term Loan on such date to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Additional Term
Lender’s Repriced Term Commitment. For purposes hereof, a Person shall become a party to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and a Repriced Term Lender as of the Second Amendment Effective Date by executing and delivering to the
Administrative Agent, on or prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date, a Lender Addendum (Additional Term Lender) in its capacity as a Repriced Term Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, the Existing Term Loans of a Continuing Term Lender must be
continued in whole and may not be continued in part unless approved by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b)     Each
Additional Term Lender will make its Second Repriced Term Loan on the Second Amendment Effective Date by making available to the Administrative Agent, in the 

  
 5 








 
manner contemplated by Section 2.02 of the Credit Agreement, an amount equal to its Repriced Term Commitment. The “Repriced Term Commitment” (i) of any
Continuing Term Lender will be the amount of its Existing Term Loans as set forth in the Register as of the Second Amendment Effective Date (or such lesser amount as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent prior to the Second Amendment
Effective Date), which shall be continued as an equal amount of Second Repriced Term Loans, and (ii) of any Additional Term Lender will be such amount (not exceeding any commitment offered by such Additional Term Lender) allocated to it by the
Administrative Agent and notified to it on or prior to the Second Amendment Effective Date. The commitments of the Additional Term Lenders and the continuation undertakings of the Continuing Term Lenders are several, and no such Lender will be
responsible for any other such Lender’s failure to make or acquire by continuation its Second Repriced Term Loan. The Second Repriced Term Loans may from time to time be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as determined by the Borrower
and notified to the Administrative Agent as contemplated by Section 2.02 of the Credit Agreement. The Lenders having Existing Term Loans that are prepaid in connection with the making of the Second Repriced Term Loans shall
be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.05 of the Credit Agreement with respect thereto. The Continuing Term Lenders hereby waive the benefits of Section 3.05 of the Credit Agreement with respect
to the continuation of the Continued Term Loans pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c)    The obligation of each Repriced
Term Lender to make or acquire by continuation Second Repriced Term Loans on the Second Amendment Effective Date is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5 of this Amendment. 

(d)    On and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Initial Term
Loans” shall be deemed a reference to the Second Repriced Term Loans contemplated hereby, except as the context may otherwise require. Notwithstanding the foregoing (but except as set forth in Section 4(b) above), the
provisions of the Credit Agreement with respect to indemnification, reimbursement of costs and expenses, increased costs and break funding payments shall continue in full force and effect with respect to, and for the benefit of, each Existing Term
Lender in respect of such Lender’s Existing Term Loans to the same extent expressly set forth therein. 

(e)    The continuation of Continued Term Loans may be implemented pursuant to other procedures specified by the
Administrative Agent, including by repayment of Continued Term Loans of a Continuing Term Lender followed by a subsequent assignment to it of Second Repriced Term Loans in the same amount. 

(f)    For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, at the sole option of the
Administrative Agent, any Lender with Existing Term Loans that are prepaid as contemplated hereby shall, automatically upon receipt of the amount necessary to purchase such Lender’s Existing Term Loans so replaced, at par, and pay all accrued
interest thereon, be deemed to have assigned such Loans pursuant to a form of Assignment and Assumption and, accordingly, no other action by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Loan Parties shall be required in connection therewith. The
Lenders hereby agree to waive the notice requirements of Sections 2.05(a)(i) of the Credit Agreement in connection with the prepayment or replacement of Existing Term Loans contemplated hereby. 

  
 6 








 SECTION 5.    Effectiveness. The effectiveness of this Amendment and
the obligations of each Repriced Term Lender hereunder are subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, except as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (the day on which such conditions are
satisfied or waived is herein referred to as the “Second Amendment Effective Date”): 
 (a)    The
Administrative Agent’s receipt of the following, each of which shall be originals or .pdf copies or other facsimiles (followed promptly by originals) unless otherwise specified, each properly executed by a Responsible Officer of the signing
Loan Party each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its legal counsel: 

(i)    executed counterparts of this Amendment; 

(ii)    executed Lender Addenda by the Continuing Lenders and the Additional Term Lenders; 

(iii)    such certificates of good standing (to the extent such concept exists) from the applicable
secretary of state of the state of organization of each Loan Party, certificates of resolutions or other action, incumbency certificates and/or other certificates of Responsible Officers of each Loan Party (including a certificate attaching the
Organization Documents of each Loan Party) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require evidencing the identity, authority and capacity of each Responsible Officer thereof authorized to act as a Responsible Officer in connection with this
Amendment; 
 (iv)    an opinion from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, New York
counsel to the Loan Parties; and 
 (v)    a solvency certificate from the chief financial officer, chief
accounting officer or other officer with equivalent duties of the Borrower (after giving effect to the Repricing Term Loans) substantially in the form delivered on the Closing Date. 

(b)    All fees and expenses due to the Administrative Agent required to be paid on the Second Amendment Effective Date
shall have been paid. 
 (c)    The Administrative Agent shall have received at least three Business Days prior to the

 Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 9.03(b) of the Credit
Agreement for purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 5, each Repriced Term Lender that has signed a Lender Addendum shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to
be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Repriced Term Lender prior to the
proposed Second Amendment Effective Date specifying its objection thereto. 
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Amendment to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent may appoint a fronting lender to act as the sole Additional Term Lender for purposes of facilitating funding on the Second Amendment Effective Date. Accordingly, any Lender Addendum (Additional Term Lender) submitted by or on
behalf of an Additional Term Lender other than such fronting lender will be deemed ineffective unless accepted by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. 

SECTION 6.    Representations and Warranties. The Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby represents and
warrants to each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent that as of the Second Amendment Effective Date: 

6.1.     This Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is a party hereto. This
Amendment, the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, and each other Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party that is a party thereto in accordance with its terms, except

writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject, or (iii) violate any applicable Law; except with respect to any conflict, breach, contravention or payment (but not creation of
Liens) referred to in clause (c)(ii)(x), to the extent that such violation, conflict, breach, contravention or payment could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

6.3.     Each of the representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in Article V of the Credit
Agreement and each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects (except that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all
respects as so qualified) on and as of the Second Amendment Effective Date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they

conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other provision of the Credit Agreement or of any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force

other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. 
 7.2.     On and after the Second Amendment Effective
Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein”, or words of like import, and each reference to the Credit Agreement in any other Loan Document shall be deemed
a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby. This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

7.3.    Except as expressly provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, the Refinancing Term Facility shall be subject to
the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 8.    Acknowledgement and
Consent. Each Loan Party hereby confirms that (i) all of its obligations, liabilities and indebtedness under the Loan Documents to which it is a party shall remain in full force and effect on a continuous basis regardless of the
effectiveness of this Amendment and (ii) all of the Liens and security interests created and arising under the Loan Documents to which it is a party remain in full force and effect on a continuous basis, and the perfected status and priority of
