“Applicable Margin”
and “Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage” mean (a) from the Closing Date until the date of delivery
of the Compliance Certificate and the financial statements for the period ending March 31, 2018, a percentage, per annum,
determined by reference to the following table as if the Debt to Total Capitalization Ratio of the Parent Borrower then in effect

	Debt to Total

 Margin for
 Base Rate Loans	 	 	Applicable
 Margin for
 Eurodollar Rate
 Loans	 	 	Applicable
 Revolving
 Commitment
 Fee Percentage	 
	0% ˂ x  ≤ 15%	 	 	1.50	%	 	 	2.50	%	 	 	0.375	%

calculating the Debt to Total Capitalization Ratio of the Parent Borrower. At any time the Borrowers have not submitted to the
Administrative Agent the applicable information as and when required under Section 6.02(a), the Applicable Margin and

the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrowers and each Lender telefacsimile, telephonic or electronic notice (confirmed in
writing) of the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage in effect from such date. In the event
that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(a) is shown to be inaccurate
(at a time when this Agreement is in effect and unpaid Obligations under this Agreement are outstanding (other than indemnities
and other contingent obligations not yet due and payable)), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application
of a higher Applicable Margin or Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage for any period (an “Applicable Period”)
than the Applicable Margin or Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage applied for such Applicable Period, then (x) the
Company shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct Compliance Certificate required by Section 6.02(a)
for such Applicable Period, (y) the Applicable Margin or Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage shall be determined
based on the Debt to Total Capitalization Ratio of the Parent Borrower set forth in such correct Compliance Certificate and (z) the
Borrowers shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such increased
Applicable Margin or Applicable Revolving Commitment Fee Percentage for such Applicable Period. Nothing in this paragraph shall
limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under Section 2.06 or Article 8.

rate in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Ob-ligations
applicable to such Indebtedness if such Hedging Obligation has a remaining term in ex-cess of 12 months). Interest on a Capitalized

that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank
offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such

Agreement. Except as provided herein, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative
Agent shall make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to the Borrower that requested such Revolving Loans on the applicable

hereunder or reimburse the relevant LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.12(e).


 


Section

(a)          Each
Revolving Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more loan accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by
the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The loan accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent
and each Lender shall be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Revolving Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrowers, the interest
and payments thereon, the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time absent
manifest error. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligations
of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Revolving Loans and the Facility LC issuances. If such accounts
are inconsistent with the Register, the Register shall prevail.


 


(b)          Upon
the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, instead of or in addition to loan accounts, the Revolving Loans
made by such Lender may be evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note. Each Lender shall endorse on the schedules annexed to its Revolving
Loan Note the date, amount and maturity of each Revolving Loan deemed made by it and the amount of each payment of principal made
by the Borrowers with respect thereto. Each such Lender is irrevocably authorized by the Borrowers to endorse its Revolving Loan
Note and each Lender’s record shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the failure of a Lender to
make, or an error in making, a notation thereon with respect to the Revolving Loan shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations
of the Borrowers hereunder or under any such Revolving Loan Note to such Lender.

or in part, in minimum amounts of (x) with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, $1,000,000 or any multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof and (y) with respect to Base Rate Loans $500,000 or any multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, in each case subject to
the provisions of this Section 2.05; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, any Revolving Loan may be prepaid
in its entirety.


 


(b)          Voluntary
Commitment Reductions.


 


(i)          The
Borrowers may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and
from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving Commitments in an
amount up to the amount by which the Revolving Commitments exceed the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments at the time of
such proposed termination or reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be in
an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.


 




    	 	48	 



     


    

 


(ii)         A
Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination
or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction. Any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence
or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice
may be revoked by such Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if
such condition is not satisfied.


 


(iii)        Each
reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments.


 


(c)          Mandatory
Prepayments. The Borrowers shall from time to time prepay the Revolving Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Facility LCs to
the extent necessary so that the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments does not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitments
then in effect. The outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect
thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the Commitment Termination Date.


 


(d)          Application
of Prepayments. Any prepayment of the Revolving Loans will be applied as follows:


 


(i)          first,
to prepay the Revolving Loans to the full extent thereof without any permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments;


 


(ii)         second,
to prepay outstanding reimbursement obligations with respect to the Facility LCs without any permanent reduction of the Revolving
Commitments; and


 


(iii)        third,
to Cash Collateralize the Facility LCs making such prepayment without any permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments.


 


(e)          Notice
of Prepayments. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in the form of a Prepayment Notice of any prepayment
of any Revolving Loan hereunder not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) one Business Day before the date of prepayment.
Each such Prepayment Notice shall be irrevocable, shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Revolving
Loan or portion thereof to be prepaid and may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any
event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by such
Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.


 


(f)          Application
of Prepayments of Revolving Loans to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Rate Loans. Considering each Class of Revolving Loans being
prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application
to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrowers
pursuant to Section 3.04.


 




    	 	49	 



     


    

 


Section
2.06.         Interest.


 


(a)          Except
as otherwise set forth herein, each Class of Revolving Loans shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the
date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:


 


(i)          if
a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or


 


(ii)         if
a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin.


 


(b)          The
basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Revolving Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar
Rate Loan, shall be selected by the applicable Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable
Loan Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be; provided that the Borrowers may not select the Eurodollar
Rate for any Credit Extension if the aggregate amount of such Credit Extension is less than $1,000,000.


 


(c)          In
connection with Eurodollar Rate Loans there shall be no more than ten Interest Periods outstanding at any time. In the event the
applicable Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Loan Notice or Conversion/Continuation
Notice, such Revolving Loan (if outstanding as a Eurodollar Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on
the last day of the then-current Interest Period for such Revolving Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as,
or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event the applicable Borrower fails to specify an Interest
Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Loan Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice (or fails to deliver a Conversion/Continuation
Notice within the time limits provided in Section 2.03(a)), such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest
Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date,
the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon
all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined
for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to
the Borrowers and each Lender. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers
and the Lenders of any change in the U.S. Prime Rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement
of such change.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, the overdue
principal amount of each Revolving Loan and Reimbursement Obligations and overdue interest payable thereon shall, without further
notice, bear interest, after as well as before judgment to the extent permitted by law, at a rate per annum equal to 2.00%
plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Revolving Loan or Reimbursement Obligations as provided in the preceding subsections
of this Section 2.06 or Section 2.12, with respect to Reimbursement Obligations. In addition, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, if any fee or other amount (other than principal or interest on any Revolving Loan or Reimbursement Obligations)
payable by the Borrowers pursuant to any Loan Document is not paid when due, whether upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue
amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment to the extent permitted by law, at a rate per annum equal to 2.00%
plus the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans as provided in the preceding subsections of this Section 2.06.


 




    	 	50	 



     


    

 


(e)          Interest
on each Revolving Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Revolving Loan; provided that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to Section 2.06(d) shall be payable on demand of the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of
the Required Lenders; provided that no such instruction shall be required in the case of an Event of Default pursuant to
Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g)), (ii) upon any repayment or prepayment of any Revolving Loan, interest
accrued on the principal amount repaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment and (iii) upon any conversion of a Eurodollar
Rate Loan before the end of the current Interest Period therefor, interest accrued on such Revolving Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion.


 


(f)          Anything
herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrowers to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the limitation
that payments of interest shall not be required for any period for which interest is computed hereunder to the extent (but only
to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by such Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable
to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and
in such event the Borrowers shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law until the total amount
of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set
forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Revolving Loans made hereunder are repaid in
full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest
which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect,
then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between
the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully
contracted for, charged or received had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders
and the Borrowers to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives
any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged
or received by such Lender, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s
option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrowers.


 


Section
2.07.         Fees.


 


(a)          From
the Closing Date until the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders commitment fees equal to (1) the average of the daily difference between (A) the Revolving
Commitments and (B) the Total Utilization of Revolving Commitments, multiplied by (2) the Applicable Revolving Commitment
Fee Percentage.


 


(b)          All
fees referred to in Section 2.07(a) will be calculated pursuant to the second sentence of Section 2.08(a)
and, unless otherwise stated, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December
of each year during the Revolving Commitment Period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on
the Commitment Termination Date.


 




    	 	51	 



     


    

 


(c)          In
addition to the foregoing, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable pursuant to the
Fee Letter and any other fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon by the Borrowers and the Administrative
Agent. Such fees will be fully earned when paid and will not be refundable under any circumstances (except as set forth in the
Fee Letter or separately agreed).


 


Section
2.08.         Computation of Fees and Interest.


 


(a)          All
computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the U.S. Prime Rate shall be made on the basis
of a year of 365 (or 366 days in a leap year) and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest
shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period in
which such interest or fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.


 


(b)          Each
determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders
in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent will, at the request of a Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Borrowers
or such Lender, as the case may be, a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest
rate and the resulting interest rate.


 


Section
2.09.         Payments Generally.


 


(a)          All
payments to be made by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents shall be made without condition or deduction for any defense, set-off,
recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, all payments to be made by the Borrowers
under any Loan Document shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s
Office, and shall be made in dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the
date specified in such Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other
applicable share as expressly provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received. Any payment received by the Administrative
Agent later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any
applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue to such following Business Day. Each reference to the Administrative Agent
in this Section 2.09 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the relevant LC Issuer, in the case of payments
required to be made by the Borrowers to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.12(f).


 


(b)          Subject
to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, whenever any payment is due on a day other
than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.


 




    	 	52	 



     


    

 


(c)          Unless
a Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the
Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrowers or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be
so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent
that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:


 


(i)          if
the Borrowers failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion
of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in
respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the
date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time
in effect; and


 


(ii)         if
any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof
in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the
Administrative Agent to the Borrowers to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation
Period”) at the customary rate set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business
Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount (other than
the interest thereon) shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the applicable Credit Extension. If such
Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make
a demand therefor upon the Borrowers, and the Borrowers shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest
thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the applicable rate for Base Rate Loans to the applicable
Credit Extension. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Commitments
or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default
by such Lender hereunder.


 


A notice of the Administrative
Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers, with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (c) shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error.


 


(d)          If
any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Revolving Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the
foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative
Agent because the conditions to the extension of Revolving Loans set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or waived
in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender)
to such Lender, without interest.


 


(e)          The
obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving
Loan on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and
no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Revolving Loans.


 




    	 	53	 



     


    

 


(f)          Nothing
herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Revolving Loan in any particular place or manner or to
constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for the Revolving Loan in any particular
place or manner.


 


Section
2.10.         Sharing of Payments by Lenders.


 


If any Lender shall, by
exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment (i) on account of any Obligations due and payable
to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time resulting in such Lender receiving payment in excess of
its ratable share (calculated according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender
at such time to (2) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (ii) of or on account of any of Obligations owing
(but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share
(calculated according to the proportion of (1) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender
at such time to (2) the aggregate amount of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under
the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time, then in each case, such Lender shall
(A) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (B) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Obligations
of the other Lenders due and payable or owing, as the case may be, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that
the benefit of such excess payments shall be shared by all such Lenders; provided that:


 


		(a)	if any such participations are purchased and all or any
portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored
to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and



 


		(b)	the provisions of this Section 2.10 shall not be
construed to apply to (1) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this
Agreement or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any
of its Revolving Loans to any assignee or participant.



 


Each Credit Party consents
to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Credit Party rights of set-off and counterclaim (subject to Section 10.09)
with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such
participation.


 




    	 	54	 



     


    

 


Section
2.11.         Defaulting Lenders.


 


(a)          Defaulting
Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:


 


(i)          Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 8 or otherwise) or received
by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.09 shall be applied at such time or times
as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the LC Issuers; third, to Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting
Lender on a pro rata basis in accordance with Section 2.11(d); fourth, as the applicable Borrower may request (so
long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), to the funding of any Revolving Loan on a pro rata
basis in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined
by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit
account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with
respect to Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’ future Fronting
Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Facility LCs issued under this Agreement, in accordance
with Section 2.11(d); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or LC Issuers as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach
of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or reimbursement
obligations with respect to Facility LCs in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share,
and (y) such Revolving Loans were made or the relevant Facility LCs were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of or reimbursement
obligations with respect to Facility LCs owed to all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment
of any Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations
in Facility LCs are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable Commitments without giving effect to Section
2.11(a)(iii). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held)
to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting
Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.


 




    	 	55	 



     


    

 


(ii)         Certain
Fees.


 


(1)         No
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.07(a) for any period during which that
Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required
to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).


 


(2)         With
respect to any fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (1) above, the Borrowers shall
not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.


 


(3)         Each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive LC Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the
extent allocable to its ratable share of the stated amount of Facility LCs for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to
Section 2.11(d).


 


(4)         With
respect to any LC Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (3) above, the Borrowers shall
(x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to
such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant
to clause (iii) below, (y) pay to each LC Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender
to the extent allocable to such LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the
remaining amount of any such fee.


 


(iii)        Reallocation
of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC Obligations
shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard
to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving
Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. Subject to Section 10.24,
no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender
arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such
Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.


 


(iv)        Cash
Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers
shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the LC Issuers’
Fronting Exposure on a pro rata basis in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.11(d).


 




    	 	56	 



     


    

 


(b)          Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuers agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting
Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon, as of the effective date specified in such notice,
and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender
will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders or take such other
actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations
in Facility LCs to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section
2.11(a)(iii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made
retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting
Lender; and provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no
change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising
from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. The arrangements permitted or required by this Section 2.11 shall be permitted
under this Agreement, notwithstanding the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise.


 


(c)          New
Facility LCs. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no LC Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase
any Facility LC unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.


 


(d)          Cash
Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written
request of the Administrative Agent or any LC Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize
such LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to the reallocation
pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(iii) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less
than the Minimum Collateral Amount.


 


(i)          Grant
of Security Interest. The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant
to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant LC Issuers, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest
in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of LC Obligations,
to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral
is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the relevant LC Issuers as herein provided,
or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender,
as appropriate, will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash
Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (in the case of the Borrowers, after giving effect to any Cash
Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).


 


(ii)         Application.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.11
in respect of Facility LCs shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations
in respect of LC Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation)
for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for
herein.


 




    	 	57	 



     


    

 


(iii)        Termination
of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any LC Issuer’s Fronting Exposure
shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.11(d) (i) following the elimination
of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (ii) to
the extent the amount of Cash Collateral exceeds the Minimum Collateral Amount; provided that, subject to this Section 2.11,
the Person providing Cash Collateral and such LC Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated
Fronting Exposure or other obligations. Any Cash Collateral no longer required to be held as a result of the immediately preceding
sentence shall be promptly returned, and in any event within five (5) Business Days, by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers
or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.


 


Section
2.12.         Facility LCs. 





 


(a)          Issuance.
Each LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue standby letters of credit denominated
in Dollars (each, a “Facility LC”) requested by the Parent Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries as the applicant
or co-applicant thereof for the support of the Parent Borrower’s or the Subsidiaries’ obligations and to renew, extend,
increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”),
from time to time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to the Commitment Termination Date upon the request of
the applicable Borrower; provided that immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, the aggregate amount
of the outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed $20,000,000. Each of the Borrowers unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that,
in connection with any Facility LC issued for the support of any Subsidiary’s obligations as provided in the first sentence
of this paragraph, it will be jointly and severally fully responsible for the reimbursement of all payments made by the LC Issuers
in respect of Facility LCs in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of fees due under
Section 2.12(d) to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Facility LC (the Borrowers
hereby irrevocably waiving any defenses that might otherwise be available to them as guarantors or surety of the obligations of
such a Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of any such Facility LC). Each Facility LC shall have an expiry date no later
than one (1) year after its issuance and may be annually automatically renewed on an “evergreen” basis; provided,
however, the renewed Facility LC expires (x) no later than five (5) Business Day prior to the Commitment Termination Date
or (y) after the Commitment Termination Date so long as the Borrowers have Cash Collateralized such Facility LC in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in an amount equal to 103% of the LC Obligations with respect to such
Facility LC. If a Facility LC will not be renewed, the LC Issuer shall notify the beneficiary of such Facility LC of such non-renewal.
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may provide written notice to the Administrative
Agent and each LC Issuer identifying such Event of Default and instructing the LC Issuers (i) not to renew any “evergreen”
Facility LCs during the continuance of such Event of Default (it being understood and agreed that, in the event such Event of Default
is cured or waived, any other Event of Default that resulted from such Event of Default shall be deemed cured or waived for purposes
of this sentence only) and (ii) to notify the beneficiaries of such Facility LCs of such non-renewal and upon receipt of such notice,
the applicable LC Issuers shall not renew any such “evergreen” Facility LCs and shall provide such notices to the beneficiaries
thereof (to the extent such LC Issuers are then permitted to provide such notices under the terms of such Facility LCs).


 




    	 	58	 



     


    

 


(b)          Participations.
Upon the issuance or Modification by the relevant LC Issuer of a Facility LC, such LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action
by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further
action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from such LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility
LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share in an aggregate amount up
to, collectively with such Lender’s existing Revolving Exposure, but not exceeding its Revolving Commitment.


 


(c)          Notice.
Subject to the terms of Section 2.12(a), the Borrower requesting the issuance or Modification of a Facility LC shall
give the Administrative Agent and the relevant LC Issuer notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business
Days (or such shorter period of time as such Borrower and the related LC Issuer may agree upon) prior to the proposed date of issuance
or Modification of such Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry
date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to
be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the relevant LC Issuer and each
Lender of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance
or Modification by any LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV
(if, in the case of a Modification, such Modification renews, increases the amount of, or extends the expiry date of a Facility
LC), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be reasonably satisfactory to such LC Issuer and that the
applicable Borrower shall have executed and delivered an application agreement (each, a “Facility LC Application”).
No LC Issuer shall have any independent duty to ascertain whether any of the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV
have been satisfied; provided, however, that no LC Issuer shall issue a Facility LC if, on or before the proposed
date of issuance, the relevant LC Issuer shall have received notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that
any such applicable condition has not been satisfied or waived. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement
and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control. Immediately following issuance of or Modification
to Facility LCs, the LC Issuer shall provide copies thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall send
such copies to the Lenders.


 


(d)          LC
Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable
Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect from time to time on the maximum daily amount available to be drawn under such Facility
LC for the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year, such fee to be payable in arrears on each LC Fee Payment Date and
on the Commitment Termination Date (the “LC Fee”). The Borrowers shall also pay to the relevant LC Issuer for
its own account (x) a fronting fee in an amount agreed upon between such LC Issuer and the Borrowers and (y) promptly
after demand, all amendment, drawing and other fees regularly charged by such LC Issuer to its letter of credit customers generally
and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such LC Issuer in connection with the issuance, Modification,
administration or payment of any Facility LC.


 




    	 	59	 



     


    

 


(e)          Administration;
Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt of any demand for payment under any Facility LC from the beneficiary of such Facility
LC, the relevant LC Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers
and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by such LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date. The
responsibility of the relevant LC Issuer to the Borrowers and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including
each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity with such
Facility LC. Each LC Issuer shall exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with
respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence
or willful misconduct by such LC Issuer, each Lender shall be severally (but not jointly) obligated, without regard to the occurrence
of any Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse such LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s
Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by such LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not reimbursed
by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.12(f) below and there is no Cash Collateral available to cover the same, in
an aggregate amount up to, collectively with such Lender’s existing Revolving Exposure, but not exceeding its Revolving Commitment,
plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of such LC Issuer’s
demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such date, from the next
succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it at the greater of the Federal
Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.


 


(f)          Reimbursement
by Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the relevant LC Issuer for any
amounts paid by such LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities
of any kind (other than the demand contemplated hereby). Such reimbursement shall be due by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on
the Business Day following the date such LC Issuer makes demand to the Borrowers therefor, provided that the Borrowers shall
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer interest on the amount subject to reimbursement for the
Business Day such demand is made if such demand is not satisfied on the same Business Day at the Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin for Base Rate Loans in effect at such time. All such amounts paid by the relevant LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the
Borrowers after such amounts are due in accordance with the foregoing shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until
paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.
The relevant LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the
Borrowers for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued
by such LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to such LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant
to Section 2.12(e). If an LC Issuer shall not have received from the Borrowers the payment required to be made by this
Section 2.12(f) within the time specified in this section, such LC Issuer will promptly notify the Administrative Agent
of the non-payment of such drawing and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Revolving Lender to provide
its Pro Rata Share thereof by no later than 12:00 (noon) on the Business Day on which such payment was not received from the Borrowers.
Each such Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than
2:00 p.m. on such date an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such drawing (it being understood that (i) if the
conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in Sections 4.02(a) and (b) have been satisfied, such amount shall be deemed
to constitute a Base Rate Loan of such Lender and, to the extent of such payment, the Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers
in respect of such drawing shall be discharged and replaced with the resulting Base Rate Loan and (ii) if such conditions precedent
to borrowing have not been satisfied, then any such amount paid by any Revolving Lender shall not constitute a Loan and shall not
relieve the Borrowers from their obligation to reimburse such drawing).


 




    	 	60	 



     


    

 


(g)          Obligations
Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.12 shall be absolute and unconditional under any
and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrowers may have or have had
against any LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Borrowers further agree with the LC Issuers and the
Lenders that the LC Issuers and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation in
respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements
thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute
between or among the Borrowers, any of their Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other
party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrowers or of any of their Affiliates
against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee unless such action was the result of the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the applicable LC Issuer.


 


(h)          Actions
of LC Issuers. Each LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft,
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, facsimile, telex, teletype or electronic
mail message, statement, order or other document reasonably and in good faith believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have
been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants
and other experts selected by such LC Issuer in good faith and with reasonable care. Each LC Issuer shall be fully justified in
failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to expose such LC Issuer to liability
for which it would not be entitled to indemnity or reimbursement hereunder, unless it shall first have received such advice or
concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction
by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take
any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.12, each LC Issuer shall in all cases, with
respect to the other Lenders only, be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance
with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding
upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.


 


(i)          [Reserved].


 




    	 	61	 



     


    

 


(j)          Lenders’
Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify the relevant LC Issuer, its affiliates
and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost,
expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result
from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility
LC issued by such LC Issuer after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility
LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.12 or any action taken or omitted by
such indemnitees hereunder.


 


(k)          Rights
as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, each LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.


 


(l)          Separate
Reimbursement Agreement. In the event any LC Issuer enters into a separate reimbursement agreement with the Borrowers covering
the Facility LCs issued by such LC Issuer and the terms of such reimbursement agreement conflict with or contradict the terms of
this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.


 


(m)          LC
Issuer Agreements. Each LC Issuer agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, such LC Issuer shall
report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each month, the daily activity (set forth by
day) in respect of Facility LCs during the immediately preceding month, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals,
all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on each Business Day on which such LC Issuer
makes any payment pursuant to a Facility LC, the date of such payment and the amount of such payment, (iii) on any Business
Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse a payment made by an LC Issuer in respect of a Facility that is required to be reimbursed
to such LC Issuer on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such payment and (iv) on any other Business Day,
such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.


 


(n)          Resignation
as LC Issuer. Any LC Lender may resign as LC Issuer upon 30 days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders
and the Borrowers. At the time any such resignation shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for
the account of the resigned LC Issuer. From and after the effective date of any such resignation, (a) any successor LC Issuer shall
have all the rights and obligations of the LC Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Facility LCs to be issued thereafter
and (b) references herein to the term “LC Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous LC
Issuer, or to such successor and all previous LC Issuer, as the context shall require. After the resignation of an LC Issuer hereunder,
the resigned LC Issuer shall remain a party hereto to the extent that Facility LCs issued by it remain outstanding and shall continue
to have all the rights and obligations of an LC Issuer under this Agreement with respect to the Facility LCs issued by it prior
to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Facility LCs.

Section
2.13.         Incremental Facilities.


 


(a)          The
Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, elect to request prior to the applicable Commitment Termination Date,
an increase to any then-existing Class of Revolving Commitments (any such increase, “New Revolving Commitments”),
by an aggregate amount not to exceed $50,000,000. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increased Amount
Date”) on which the Borrowers propose that the New Revolving Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not
less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the identity
of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Revolving Lender”) to whom the Borrowers
propose any portion of such New Revolving Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations, which Eligible Assignee
must be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund shall be deemed reasonably acceptable); provided that the Administrative Agent may elect or decline to arrange
such New Revolving Commitments in its sole discretion and any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Revolving
Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Revolving Commitment. Such New Revolving Commitments
shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on
such Increased Amount Date both prior to and after giving effect to such New Revolving Commitments; (B) all of the representations
and warranties contained herein or in any Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such Increased
Amount Date to the same extent as though made on and as of such Increased Amount Date, except to the extent such representations
and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and
correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, in each case, such materiality qualifier
shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text
thereof; (C) the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma compliance with Sections 7.09, 7.10,
7.11, and 7.12 giving effect to such New Revolving Commitments and appropriate pro forma adjustments, including any
acquisitions or dispositions after the beginning of the relevant determination period but prior to or simultaneously with the Incurrence
of such New Revolving Commitments and any borrowing thereunder; and (D) each New Revolving Commitment is in a minimum amount of
$10,000,000 and in additional increments of $5,000,000. In connection with any New Revolving Commitments, (x) all New Revolving
Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more joinders to this Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrowers, the New
Revolving Lenders and the Administrative Agent, each of which shall be recorded in the Register and each New Revolving Lender shall
be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 3.01(e); (y) the Borrowers shall make any payments required pursuant
to Section 3.04 in connection with the New Revolving Commitments; and (z) the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered
any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction.


 




    	 	63	 



     


    

 


(b)          On
any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and
conditions, (i) (A) each of the Revolving Lenders of the relevant Class shall assign to each of the New Revolving Lenders, and
each of the New Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Lenders of the relevant Class, at the principal amount
thereof, such interests in the Revolving Loans of the relevant Class outstanding on such Increased Amount Date and (B) each of
the Revolving Lenders of the relevant Class will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each of the
New Revolving Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Lenders will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed
a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Facility LCs and LC Obligations, if applicable,
in each case of clauses (A) and (B) as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments
and purchases, the Revolving Exposure will be held by then-existing Revolving Lenders of the relevant Class and New Revolving Lenders
ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Commitments to
the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and
each Loan made thereunder (a “New Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (iii) each
New Revolving Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto. For the
avoidance of doubt, the terms and provisions of the New Revolving Loans and New Revolving Commitments shall be documented solely
as an increase, and shall be identical, to the then-existing Revolving Commitments (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any
upfront fees paid to the New Revolving Lenders).


 


The Administrative Agent
shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of a Borrower's notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (x) the
New Revolving Commitments and the New Revolving Lenders and (y) the respective interests in such Lender’s Revolving
Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this Section 2.13.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Agreement, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, on any Increased Amount Date, this Agreement
may be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the New Revolving Commitments with respect thereto.
Any such amendment may be effected in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers and furnished to the other parties
hereto but without the consent of any other party hereto.


 


Section
2.14.         Maturity Extension of Revolving Loans.


 


(a)          The
Borrowers may from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.14, agree with one or more Lenders holding
Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments of any Class to extend the maturity date of such Class of Loans and to provide for other
terms consistent with this Section 2.14 (each such modification, an “Extension”) pursuant to one
or more written offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Company to all Lenders under
any Class that is proposed to be extended under this Section 2.14, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the relative
principal amounts of the outstanding Revolving Commitments of each Lender in such Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender.
In connection with each Extension, the Company will provide notification to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders
of the applicable Class), no later than thirty (30) days prior to the maturity of the applicable Class or Classes to be extended
of the requested new termination date for the extended Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments of each such Class (each,
an “Extended Termination Date”) and the due date for Lender responses, which due date shall be no sooner than
ten (10) Business Days after delivery of such notice by the Company. In connection with any Extension, each Lender of the
applicable Class wishing to participate in such Extension shall, prior to such due date, provide the Administrative Agent with
a written notice thereof in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any Lender that does not respond to an
Extension Offer by the applicable due date shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension. Any Lender that declines or does not
respond to an Extension Offer by the applicable due date (a “Declining Lender”) will have its Revolving Commitment
terminated on the earlier of (1) the then-existing Commitment Termination Date (without regard to any extensions by the other Lenders)
and (2) the date such Declining Lender is replaced in accordance with Section 10.14. In connection with any Extension, the
Borrowers shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent
to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.14.


 




    	 	64	 



     


    

 


(b)          After
giving effect to any Extension, the Revolving Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Class of which they were
a part immediately prior to the Extension and shall be a new Class hereunder; provided that at no time shall there be more
than three (3) different Classes of Revolving Commitments; provided, further, that, (i) all Credit Extensions
and all prepayments of Revolving Loans shall continue to be made on a ratable basis among all Lenders, based on the relative amounts
of their Revolving Commitments, until the repayment of the Revolving Loans attributable to the non-extended Revolving Commitments
on the applicable Commitment Termination Date, (ii) the allocation of the outstanding Obligations with respect to any then-existing
or subsequently issued or made Facility LC as between the Revolving Commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining
Revolving Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis in accordance with the relative amounts thereof until the applicable Commitment
Termination Date has occurred, (iii) no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Extended Revolving
Loans accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination
or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding
pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Revolving Loans and Existing Revolving Commitments (or all Existing
Revolving Commitments of such Class and related Existing Revolving Loans shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full)
and (iv) with respect to the Facility LCs, the Commitment Termination Date with respect to the Revolving Commitments may not
be extended without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer. If the Total Utilization of Revolving
Commitments exceeds the Revolving Commitments as a result of the occurrence of the Commitment Termination Date while an extended
Class of Revolving Commitments remains outstanding, the Borrowers shall make such payments as are necessary in order to eliminate
such excess on such date.


 


(c)          The
consummation and effectiveness of each Extension shall be subject to the following:


 


(i)          no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or
at the time of such Extension (after giving effect to such Extension);


 




    	 	65	 



     


    

 


(ii)         the
Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (as applicable, “Extended
Revolving Loans” or “Extended Revolving Commitments”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Revolving
Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment (as applicable, “Existing Revolving
Loans” or “Existing Revolving Commitments”), except (A) the final maturity date of any Extended
Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension may be later than the Latest Maturity Date at the time
of such Extension, and the Average Life of any Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension
shall be no shorter than the Average Life of the Class of Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the Latest
Maturity Date at the time of such Extension; (B) the all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums)
with respect to the Extended Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may be higher or lower than the
all-in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) for the Existing Revolving Loans or Existing Revolving
Commitments, as applicable; (C) the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments
may be higher or lower than the revolving credit commitment fee rate for Existing Revolving Commitments, in each case, to the extent
provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (D) no repayment of any Extended Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments,
as applicable, shall be permitted unless such repayment is accompanied by an at least pro rata repayment of all earlier maturing
Loans (including previously extended Loans) (or all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) shall otherwise
be or have been terminated and repaid in full); (E) the Extended Revolving Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may
contain a “most favored nation” provision for the benefit of Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments; and (F) the
other terms and conditions applicable to Extended Revolving Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may be terms different
than those with respect to the Existing Revolving Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, so long as such terms
and conditions only apply after the Latest Maturity Date; provided, further, that each Extension Amendment may, without
the consent of any Lender other than the applicable extending Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to give effect to the
provisions of this Section 2.14, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments
of the extending Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided, however, that
no Extension Amendment may provide for any Class of Extended Revolving Commitments to be secured by any assets of any Subsidiary
that do not also secure the Existing Revolving Commitments;


 


(iii)        all
documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications by the Borrowers
generally directed to the applicable Lenders under the applicable Class in connection therewith shall be in form and substance
consistent with the foregoing and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;


 


(iv)        a
minimum amount in respect of such Extension (to be determined in the Parent Borrower’s discretion and specified in the relevant
Extension Offer, but in no event less than $50,000,000, unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion) shall be satisfied; and


 


(v)         no
Extension shall become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of such Extension, the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 4.02(a), (b) and (c) shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section to the
making of a Loan being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of such Extension), and the Administrative
Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of such Extension and executed by a Responsible
Officer of the Company.


 




    	 	66	 



     


    

 


(d)          For
the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Section 2.10 and Section 10.01
will not apply to any payment of interest or fees in respect of any Extended Revolving Commitments that have been extended pursuant
to an Extension at a rate or rates different from those paid or payable in respect of Revolving Loans of any other Class, in each
case as is set forth in the relevant Extension Offer made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.14
with respect to such Extensions of Revolving Commitments.


 


(e)          [Reserved].


 


(f)          The
Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments (collectively, “Extension Amendments”)
to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes of Revolving Commitments created
pursuant to an Extension, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.14. Without limiting the foregoing,
in connection with any Extension, (i) the Borrowers and the appropriate Guarantors shall (at their expense) amend (and the
Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Loan Document that the Administrative Agent reasonably requests to be amended
to reflect the then latest Extended Termination Date and (ii) the Borrowers and the appropriate Guarantors shall deliver such
board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested
by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith (in each case, in form and substance similar to such documents delivered by
the Credit Parties on the Closing Date) and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, a legal opinion of counsel in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood and agreed that an opinion similar in form and substance
to the opinion delivered by counsel to the Borrowers on the Closing Date, shall be deemed to be reasonably acceptable).


 


(g)          Promptly
following the consummation and effectiveness of any Extension, the Company will furnish to the Administrative Agent (who shall
promptly furnish to each Lender) written notice setting forth the Extended Termination Date and material economic terms of the
Extension and the aggregate principal amount of each Class of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments after giving effect to
the Extension and attaching a copy of the fully executed Extension Amendment.

ARTICLE 3

Taxes, Yield Protection and Illegality


 


Section
3.01.         Taxes.


 


(a)          Payments
Free of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party hereunder
or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as
required by applicable law. If any applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable law (as determined in the good
faith discretion of such applicable withholding agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the applicable
withholding agent shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount
deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified
Tax, the amount so payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions
or withholdings for such Indemnified Tax have been made (including deductions and withholdings for such Indemnified Tax applicable
to additional amounts so payable under this Section 3.01) the Administrative Agent, Lender or LC Issuer, as the case may
be, receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. For purposes
of this Section 3.01, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.


 


(b)          Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall timely
pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely
reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.


 


(c)          Indemnification
by the Borrowers. Without duplication of the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrowers shall indemnify
the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each LC Issuer, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for
the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes in respect of payments under any Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed on
or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) that are imposed on or payable by the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate
setting forth the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender or any LC Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an LC Issuer, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Borrower shall be under any obligation to indemnify
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer under this Section 3.01 with respect to (i) any amounts withheld or
deducted by Borrowers prior to the date that is 360 days prior to the date that the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such LC
Issuer makes a written demand therefor or (ii) any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, a Lender or a LC Issuer
if written demand therefor is made to the Borrowers on a date that is 360 days after the date the Administrative Agent, such Lender
or such LC Issuer filed the tax return with respect to which such Indemnified Taxes relate.


 


(d)          Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrowers
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


 




    	 	68	 



     


    

 


(e)          Status
of Lenders. Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent, whenever reasonably requested by the
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable laws and such
other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (i) to
determine whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (ii) to determine,
if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction and (iii) to establish such Lender’s entitlement to any
available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender pursuant to any
Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding tax purposes in an applicable jurisdiction.
In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation
prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers
or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
If any form, certification or other documentation provided by a Lender pursuant to this Section 3.01(e) (including
any of the specific documentation described below) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall
notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing and shall update or otherwise correct the affected documentation or
notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing that such Lender is not legally eligible to do so. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the preceding paragraph, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation will not be
required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.


 


Each Lender shall deliver
to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of duly completed and executed copies as shall be requested by the
recipient), at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers
and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from
any payment under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents pursuant to FATCA. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA”
shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing,


 


(A)         the
Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent under
this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers);


 


(i)          executed
copies of IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, and


 


(ii)         executed
copies of IRS Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying
that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected
with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement
with the Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent
agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)
or Section 1.1441-1T(b)(2)(iv)(A) of the United States Treasury Regulations);


 




    	 	69	 



     


    

 


(B)         any
Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to
the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation
or information prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent (in such number
of signed copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent) as will enable the Borrowers
or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine that such Lender is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding
or information reporting requirements; and


 


(C)         each
Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal
withholding tax with respect to any payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of signed copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which
such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or
the Administrative Agent), duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:


 


(iii)        IRS
Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor thereto) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the
United States is a party,


 


(iv)        IRS
Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) claiming that specified payments (as applicable) under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (as applicable) constitute income that is effectively connected with such Foreign Lender’s conduct of a trade
or business in the United States,


 


(v)         in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code
(the “Portfolio Interest Exemption”), (x) a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1,
F-2, F-3 or F-4, as applicable (a “Tax Status Certificate”), to the effect that such Foreign
Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent
shareholder” of the Borrowers, within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled
foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no interest to be received is effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business and (y) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor thereto),


 


(vi)        where
such Foreign Lender is a partnership (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or otherwise not a beneficial owner (e.g.,
where such Lender has sold a participation), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto) and all required supporting documentation
(including, where one or more of the underlying beneficial owner(s) is claiming the benefits of the Portfolio Interest Exemption,
a Tax Status Certificate of such beneficial owner(s); provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and not a participating
Lender, the Tax Status Certificate from the beneficial owner(s) may be provided by the Foreign Lender on behalf of the beneficial
owner(s)), or


 




    	 	70	 



     


    

 


(vii)       any
other form prescribed by applicable laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable laws to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in this Section 3.01(e), no Lender shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is not legally
eligible to provide.


 


For purposes of this Section
3.01(e), the term “Lender” includes each LC Issuer.


 


(f)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund
of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts
pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent
of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket
expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental
Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such
indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (f), in no event will the indemnified
party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (f) the payment of which would
place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax
subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any
indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential)
to the indemnifying party or any other Person.


 


Section
3.02.         Illegality.


 


(a)          If
any Change in Law, after the Closing Date, has made it unlawful, or if any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted
after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or for
any LC Issuer to issue or participate in Facility LCs, then, on notice thereof by the Lender or the LC Issuer to the Borrowers
through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of that Lender or that LC Issuer to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to issue or
participate in Facility LCs, as applicable, shall be suspended until the Lender or the LC Issuer notifies the Administrative Agent
and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.


 




    	 	71	 



     


    

 


(b)          If
it shall have become unlawful for such Lender to maintain any Eurodollar Rate Loan after the Closing Date, upon the Borrowers’
receipt of written notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), such Eurodollar Rate
Loans of that Lender then outstanding, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Lender may lawfully continue
to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar
Rate Loan, shall convert to a Base Rate Loan on such applicable date and on such date the Borrowers shall pay to the applicable
Lender accrued interest on such Eurodollar Rate Loan along with all amounts required under Section 3.04.


 


(c)          If
the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Borrowers may elect,
by the Company giving notice to the Lender through the Administrative Agent, that all Revolving Loans which would otherwise be
made or maintained by the Lender as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans.


 


(d)          If
any Lender or any LC Issuer requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.01, 3.02 or 3.03, the Borrowers are
required to pay any increased payment or indemnity payment pursuant to Section 3.01, 3.02 or 3.03, or Eurodollar
Rate Loans or commitments to make Eurodollar Rate Loans are automatically converted to Base Rate Loans or commitments to make Base
Rate Loans, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or such LC Issuer shall use reasonable efforts
to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Eurodollar Rate Loans or issuing its Facility LCs hereunder
or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such
Lender or such LC Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to this Section
3.02 or such payment pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.03, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or
such LC Issuer to any additional cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or such LC Issuer in
any material economic, legal or regulatory respect.


 


Section
3.03.         Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.


 


(a)          If
any Lender or any LC Issuer reasonably and in good faith determines that, due to either (x) Change in Law or (y) the
compliance by that Lender or that LC Issuer with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
(whether or not having the force of law) after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing
to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans or such LC Issuer agreeing to issue or issuing or participating
in Facility LCs, in each case, including Taxes (other than (i) Taxes described in clauses (b), (c) and (d)
of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, (ii) Connection Income Taxes and (iii) Indemnified Taxes that are covered
by Section 3.01) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits,
reserves, liabilities or capital attributable thereto, then the Borrowers shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, promptly
upon written demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender or such LC Issuer, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender or such LC Issuer for
such increased costs.


 




    	 	72	 



     


    

 


(b)          If
any Lender or any LC Issuer reasonably and in good faith shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy
Regulation, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration
of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or (iv) compliance by the Lender (or its Lending Office) or the LC Issuer or any corporation controlling the Lender
or the LC Issuer with any of the foregoing, in each case after the Closing Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on such Lender’s, such LC Issuer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s
or such LC Issuer’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender, such LC Issuer or such corporation could
have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s, such LC Issuer’s or such
corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such LC Issuer
to be material, then from time to time, within thirty days after submission by such Lender or such LC Issuer to the Borrowers (through
the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (b)
has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital
resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender, such LC Issuer or corporation
and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender or such LC Issuer such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such LC Issuer or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate
as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) submitted by such Lender or such LC Issuer, through
the Administrative Agent, to the Borrowers shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 3.03(b), the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an LC Issuer pursuant to
this Section 3.03(b) for any amounts incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or such LC Issuer notifies
the Borrowers of such Lender’s or such LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that,
if the change in law giving rise to any such increased cost or reductions is retroactive, then the 270 day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes of the Loan Documents, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation
thereof and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel
Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority), or the United States or other regulatory authorities,
in each case, pursuant to Basel III, will in each case, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented be deemed
to have been a Change in Law adopted and to have taken effect after the Closing Date.


 


Section
3.04.         Funding Losses.


 


The Borrowers shall reimburse
each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss (other than loss of profits or the Applicable Margin), expense or liability
which the Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:


 


(a)          the
failure of the Borrowers to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan;


 




    	 	73	 



     


    

 


(b)          the
failure of the Borrowers to continue a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the applicable Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given)
a Conversion/Continuation Notice thereof;


 


(c)          the
failure of the Borrowers to make any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan in accordance with any notice of prepayment given by
a Borrower;


 


(d)          the
prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.05) or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of a Eurodollar
Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;


 


(e)          a
Credit Extension of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Loan Notice, or a conversion to or
continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice; or


 


(f)          any
conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Revolving
Loan;


 


including, in each case of clauses (a)
through (f) above any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain
its Eurodollar Rate Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, but excluding (i)
any administrative fee or other amount chargeable by such Lender for the calculation of such loss and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar
Rate Loans, the Applicable Margin for such Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, such loss, cost or expense
to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (x) the amount of interest
which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have
been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor
(or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such
Loan), over (y) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such
Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from
other banks in the eurodollar market.


 


Section
3.05.         Inability to Determine Rates.


 


If the Required Lenders
determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested
Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or that the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period
with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such
Revolving Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the
Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the
Required Lenders) revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any notice of continuation
then submitted by it pursuant to Section 2.03. If the Borrowers do not revoke such notice of continuation, the Lenders
shall make, convert or continue the Revolving Loans, as proposed by the Borrowers, in the amount specified in the applicable notice
submitted by the Borrowers, but such Revolving Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Eurodollar
Rate Loans.


 




    	 	74	 



     


    

 


Section
3.06.         Certificates of Lenders.


 


Any Lender claiming reimbursement
or compensation under this Article shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting
forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the
Borrowers in the absence of demonstrable error. Such certificate shall set forth in reasonable detail the methodology used in determining
the amount payable to the Lender.


 


Section
3.07.         Substitution of Lenders; Mitigation.


 


(a)          If
a Borrower receives notice from any Lender of a claim for compensation or of any illegality under Section 3.01, 3.02
or 3.03, the Borrowers may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing
such Lender to assign all of its Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitment (with the assignment fee to be paid by a Borrower in
such instance) pursuant to Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by the Borrowers;
provided that (x) the Borrowers shall be obligated to replace all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation,
(y) each such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans, accrued
interest thereon, accrued fees, funded participations in Facility LCs and all other amounts payable to it under the Loan Documents
from the applicable assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the
case of all other amounts) and (z) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section
3.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation
or payments thereafter. The Borrowers shall release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Any Lender being
replaced shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans;
provided that if the Lender being replaced does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment
and Assumption and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (i) the date on which the assignee
Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (ii) the date as of which all obligations
of the Borrowers owing to such replaced Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the
assignee Lender and/or the Borrowers to such Lender being replaced, then the Lender being replaced shall be deemed to have executed
and delivered such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Administrative Agent shall
be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf
of such Lender.


 


Section
3.08.         Survival.


 


The agreements and obligations
of the Borrowers in Section 3.01, Section 3.03, Section 3.04 and Section 3.06 shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other Obligations.

of a breach of such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects, except that, in the case
of any representation or warranty which expressly relates to a given date or period, such representation and warranty shall be
true and correct in all material respects as of the respective date or for the respective period, as the case may be. To the extent
that any representations and warranties made on, or as of, the Closing Date (or a date prior thereto) are qualified by or subject

5.01.         Corporate Existence and Power.


 


Each Credit Party and each
of its Subsidiaries:


 




    	 	79	 



     


    

 


(a)          (i)
is duly organized or incorporated and validly existing and (ii) in good standing (only to the extent such concept is applicable),

or the conduct of its business requires such qualification; and


 


(d)          is
in compliance with all Requirements of Law applicable to it or its property (it being understood and agreed that this Section
5.01(d) shall not apply to Requirements of Law covered by Section 5.19);


 


except, in each case referred
to in clauses (a)(i) (except with respect to the Borrowers, the Bermuda Reinsurer and FGL Insurance), (a)(ii), (c) and
(d), to the extent that the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect or result in the imposition of substantial penalties.


 


Section
5.02.         Corporate Authorization; No Contravention.


 


The Transactions to be
entered into by each Credit Party are within such Person’s corporate or other organizational powers. The Transactions (including

by all necessary corporate or other organizational action of each Credit Party and do not and will not:

the terms of any of such Credit Party’s or any of its Subsidiaries articles of incorporation, by-laws, bye-laws, memorandum
and articles of association or other organizational documents;

with or result in any breach, violation or contravention of, or result in or require the creation of any Lien under, any agreement,
document or instrument evidencing any material Contractual Obligation or Material Indebtedness to which such Credit Party or any
of its Subsidiaries is a party, except, in each case, to the extent that such conflict, breach, violation, contravention or Lien,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or


 


(c)          violate
any Requirement of Law or any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority to which such Credit Party or any
of its Subsidiaries or its property is subject, except to the extent that such violation, individually or in the aggregate, could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 




    	 	80	 



     


    

 


Section
5.03.         Governmental Authorization; Other Consents.


 


No approval, consent, exemption,
authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or
required in connection with the Transactions (including the execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, each
Credit Party of each Loan Document to which it is a party), except such as have been obtained and are in full force and effect
(including, without limitation, the approval of the applicable Department of each Insurance Subsidiary, if required).


 


Section
5.04.         Binding Effect.


 


This Agreement has been
duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which such other Credit Party is
to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Credit Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Credit Party, in each case enforceable against the Borrowers or such other Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.


 


Section
5.05.         Litigation.


 


Except as set forth on
Schedule 5.05, there are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending, or to the knowledge of such Credit

Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties that: (a) purport to affect or pertain to this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, or any of the transactions (including the Transactions) contemplated hereby or thereby or (b) could
reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


Section
5.06.         No Default.


 


No Default or Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing. Neither such Credit Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the performance,
observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any of its material Contractual Obligations
to which it may be subject or by which it or any of its properties may be bound, and no condition exists which, with the giving
of notice or the lapse of time or both, could constitute such a default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of
such default or defaults, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


Section
5.07.         ERISA Compliance.


 


(a)          Each
Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state law except to the extent that
such non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan that is intended to qualify under
Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS and to the knowledge of such Credit
Party, nothing has occurred which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such qualification, except where such non-qualification
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries and each ERISA Affiliate
have made all required contributions to any Pension Plan, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization
period pursuant to Section 412 of the Code has been made with respect to any Pension Plan, except where such lack of contribution
or application for funding waiver could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 




    	 	81	 



     


    

 


(b)          There
are no pending or, to the knowledge of such Credit Party, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental
Authority, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of such
Credit Party, there has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan
that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

for occurrences or circumstances that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect: (i) no ERISA Event has occurred or could be reasonably expected to occur and (ii) no Single Employer Pension
Plan has any Unfunded Pension Liability.


 


(d)          To
the extent the assets of the Borrowers are deemed to be “plan assets” within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA,
or otherwise, (i) on each day that an extension of credit pursuant to a Credit Extension is in effect, such extension of credit
will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code as a result of the
applicability of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60, and (ii) at any time when regulation 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-21,
as modified in 2016, is applicable, the fiduciary making the decision on behalf of the Borrowers with respect to the Credit Extension
will be deemed to represent and warrant that it (v) is a bank, insurance company, registered investment adviser, broker-dealer
or other person with financial expertise, in each case as described in 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-21(c)(1)(i); (w) is an independent
plan fiduciary within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. Section 2510.3-21; (x) is capable of evaluating investment risks independently,
both in general and with regard to particular transactions and investment strategies; (y) is responsible for exercising independent
judgment in evaluating the transaction and (z) it is not paying any fee or other compensation to the Lenders, Administrative Agent,
Lead Arrangers, LC Issuer, Syndication Agents or Co-Documentation Agents (the “Transaction Parties”) for investment
advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the transaction. In addition, such fiduciary will be deemed to acknowledge
and agree that it (1) has been informed (and it is hereby expressly confirmed) that none of the Transaction Parties, or other persons
that provide marketing services, nor any of their affiliates, has provided, and none of them will provide, impartial investment
advice and they are not giving any advice in ‎a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the Credit Extensions and (2) has received
information concerning, and understands the existence and nature of, the financial interests of the Transaction Parties in the
Credit Extensions.


 


Section
5.08.         Margin Regulations.


 


Neither such Credit Party
nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying
Margin Stock or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. None of the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (including the direct or indirect use of the proceeds of the Revolving Loans or Facility LCs) will violate or
result in a violation of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB.


 




    	 	82	 



     


    

 


Section
5.09.         Title to Properties.


 


Each Credit Party and its
Subsidiaries has (a) good, sufficient and legal title to (in the case of fee interests in real property), (b) valid leasehold interests
in (in the case of leasehold interests in real or personal property), (c) valid license rights in (in the case of licensed interests
in intellectual property) and (d) good title to (in the case of all other personal property), all of their respective properties
and assets necessary or used in the ordinary conduct of their respective businesses except for any failure to have such good title
and any defects in title or interests as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. Except as permitted by this Agreement, all such properties and assets of each Credit Party and their Subsidiaries
(other than Immaterial Subsidiaries) are free and clear of Liens (other than Liens permitted hereunder or under any other Loan
Document).


 


Section
5.10.         Taxes.


 


(a)          Each
Credit Party and each of its Subsidiaries have timely filed all federal income Tax, other income Tax and other Tax returns and
reports required to be filed by any jurisdiction (domestic and foreign) to which any of them is subject, and have paid all federal
income Tax, other income Tax and other Taxes levied or imposed upon it or its properties, income or assets that have become due
and payable (including in its capacity as a withholding agent) when due and payable, except those that are being contested in good
faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with SAP or GAAP, as applicable
(provided that such contest effectively suspends collection of the same and enforcement of any Lien securing the same) or
those the failure to so file or pay could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse
Effect. There is no current or proposed Tax audit, assessment, deficiency or other claim or proceeding against such Credit Party
or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(b)          Except
as could not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect, each Credit Party
and each of its Subsidiaries have made adequate provision in accordance with SAP or GAAP (as applicable) for all Taxes not yet
due and payable.

is a Foreign Subsidiary) and (y) the June 30, 2017 Quarterly Statement of each Insurance Subsidiary (other than any Insurance
Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary) (collectively, the “Historical Statutory Statements”):


 


(i)          were
prepared in accordance with SAP, except as may be reflected in the notes thereto and subject, with respect to the Quarterly Statements,
to the absence of notes required by SAP and to normal year-end adjustments; and

or not due) that, in accordance with SAP, would have been required to have been disclosed or provided for in such Historical Statutory
Statement.


 


(c)          On
and as of the Closing Date, the projections of the Parent Borrower that have been made available to the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders

thereof to be reasonable at the time such financial projections were furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, it being
understood and agreed that financial projections are not a guarantee of financial performance and actual results may differ from
financial projections and such differences may be material.


 


(d)          Since
June 30, 2017, no event, circumstance or change has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to result in, either
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; provided that, neither (a) the negotiation, execution, announcement,
pendency, performance or compliance with the express terms of the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated
therein, and no effect arising out of, or resulting from, such activities nor (b) any event, circumstance or change disclosed in
any report, schedule, form, statement or other document filed with, or furnished to, the SEC by Fidelity & Guaranty Life and
publicly available prior to the date hereof (but excluding any forward-looking disclosure set forth in any sections titled “Risk
Factors” or “forward-looking statements” (or similarly captioned section) or in any other section to the extent
the disclosure is a forward-looking statement or predictive, cautionary or forward-looking in nature) shall constitute or be taken
into account in determining whether a Material Adverse Effect has occurred or could reasonably be expected to occur.

any subsequent issuance or transfer of Capital Stock or any other event that results in any such Indebtedness being beneficially
held by a Person other than the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary; and (B) any subsequent sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness

Company shall not and shall not permit FGL Insurance to issue any Voting Stock other than to the Credit Parties. The Parent Borrower
shall not and shall not permit the Company or the Bermuda Reinsurer to issue Voting Stock other than to a Credit Party.


 


(c)          For
purposes of determining compliance with, and the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness Incurred pursuant
to and in compliance with, this Section 7.01:


 


(i)             in
the event that Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in Section 7.01(a),
the Borrowers, in their sole discretion, may divide and classify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) on the date
of Incurrence and may later reclassify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this
Section 7.01 and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness once;


 


(ii)            Guarantees
of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit or banker’s acceptances related thereto relating to, Indebtedness that
is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included;


 


(iii)           the
principal amount of any Disqualified Stock of the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary, or Preferred Stock of a Subsidiary that is not
a Credit Party, will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either
case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof;


 


(iv)           Indebtedness
permitted by this Section 7.01 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but
may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 7.01 permitting
such Indebtedness; and


 


(v)            the
amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof shall be equal to the amount of the liability
in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP.


 


Accrual of interest,
accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value or the amortization of debt discount, the payment of interest in the form
of additional Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock
shall not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 7.01. The amount of any Indebtedness
outstanding as of any date shall be (i) the accreted value thereof in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue discount
or the aggregate principal amount outstanding in the case of Indebtedness issued with interest payable-in-kind, (ii) the principal
amount or liquidation preference thereof, together with any interest thereon that is more than 30 days past due, in the case of
any other Indebtedness, (iii) in the case of the guarantee by a specified Person of Indebtedness of another Person, the maximum
liability to which the specified Person may be subject upon the occurrence of the contingency giving rise to the obligation and
(iv) in the case of Indebtedness of others guaranteed solely by means of a Lien on any asset or property of the Parent Borrower
or any Subsidiary (and not to their other assets or properties generally), the lesser of (x) the Fair Market Value of such asset
or property on the date on which such Indebtedness is Incurred and (y) the amount of the Indebtedness so secured.

(d)          For
purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent
principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange
rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of
revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated
in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated
at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall
be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal
amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus the amount of any reasonable premium (including reasonable tender premiums),
defeasance costs and any reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of such new Indebtedness. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Section 7.01, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that may be Incurred pursuant to this Section
7.01 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal
amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness
being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing
Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing.

Section
8.02.         Remedies.


 


If any Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required
Lenders:


 


(a)         declare
the obligation of each Lender to make extensions of the Revolving Loans and the obligation and power of each LC Issuer to issue,
extend or renew Facility LCs to be terminated;


 


(b)         declare
the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, all outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, all interest accrued
and unpaid thereon and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and
payable, whereupon such outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, all outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, all interest
accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become immediately
due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (except as expressly provided in Section 8.01
above), all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers, and upon notice to the Borrowers and in addition to the continuing
right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will,
forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice to act, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available
funds, which funds shall be held as Cash Collateral, equal to the difference of (x) the aggregate amount of Facility LCs that remain
available for drawing at such time less (y) the amount of existing Cash Collateral at such time which is free and clear
of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”);


 




    	 	125	 



     


    

 


(c)          if
the Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, make demand on the

Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be held as Cash Collateral;


 


(d)         apply
Cash Collateral to the payment of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other amounts as shall
from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Lenders or the LC Issuers under the Loan Documents, and none
of the Borrowers or any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrowers shall have any right to withdraw any of the Cash
Collateral; provided, that after all of the Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than indemnities
and other contingent obligations not yet due and payable) have been paid in full in cash and the Revolving Commitment has been
terminated, or if all Events of Default have been cured or waived, any remaining Cash Collateral shall be promptly returned, and
in any event within five (5) Business Days, by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers or paid to whomever may be legally entitled
thereto at such time; and


 


(e)         exercise
on behalf of itself, the Lenders and the LC Issuers all rights and remedies available to it, the Lenders and the LC Issuers under

provided that upon the occurrence of
any event specified in Section 8.01(f) or Section 8.01(g) with respect to any Borrower, FGL Insurance,
the Bermuda Reinsurer or any Guarantor that beneficially owns directly or indirectly the Capital Stock of any Insurance Subsidiary
(upon the expiration of the 60-day period mentioned therein, if applicable), the obligation of each Lender to make Revolving
Loans and the obligation and power of each LC Issuer to issue, extend or renew Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the
unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, all outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and all interest and other
amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind,
all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.


 


Section
8.03.         Rights Not Exclusive.


 


The rights provided for
in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or

Section
9.01.         Appointment and Authority.


 


Each of the Lenders and
LC Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Royal Bank of Canada to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and the
other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as
are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the

Section
9.02.         Rights as a Lender.


 


The Person serving as the
Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise
the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless
otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial
advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower, any Credit Party
or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty
to account therefor to the Lenders.


 


Section
9.03.         Exculpatory Provisions.


 


The Administrative Agent
shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:


 


(a)         shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;


 


(b)         shall
not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that it is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required
Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents);
provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its
counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and


 


(c)         shall
not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates that is communicated to
or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.


 


The Administrative Agent
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders
(or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good
faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.02 and 10.01) or (ii) in
the absence of the Administrative Agent’s own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of
any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to it by the Company, a Lender or an LC Issuer.


 




    	 	127	 



     


    

 


The Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made
in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the
validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument
or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to
confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it.


 


Section
9.04.         Reliance by Administrative Agent.


 


The Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative
Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person,
and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of
a Revolving Loan or the issuing of a Facility LC that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an LC Issuer,
as applicable, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such LC Issuer unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such LC Issuer prior to the making of such
Revolving Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants
and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice
of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


Section
9.05.         Delegation of Duties.


 


The Administrative Agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through
any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any
and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions
of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care and to the Related
Parties of the Administrative Agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facility
as well as activities as Administrative Agent.


 




    	 	128	 



     


    

 


Section
9.06.         Resignation of Administrative Agent.


 


The Administrative Agent
may resign, upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the LC Issuers and the Borrowers. Upon
receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (so long as no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g)) of the Company (such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United
States or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States and having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$100,000,000. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the LC Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set
forth above; provided that in no event shall any successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. If the Person serving
as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative
Agent and, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g))
the Company’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), appoint a successor. If the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers, the Lenders and the LC Issuers that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment
within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders), then such resignation shall nonetheless become
effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the LC Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue
to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications
and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender or
each LC Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent, with (so long as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g)) the consent of the Company
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance
of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the
same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Sections 10.04
and 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative
Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. Any resigning (or resigned) Administrative Agent that is also an LC Issuer, automatically
upon the effectiveness of such resignation, shall be deemed to have resigned as an LC Issuer in accordance with Section 2.12(n),
without the requirement of any consent of, or notice to, any other Person.


 




    	 	129	 



     


    

 


Section
9.07.         Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.


 


Each Lender and each LC
Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, any other
LC Issuer or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate,
made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each LC Issuer also acknowledges that it
will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person or any other Lender, any other LC Issuer or any of their
respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue
to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related
agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 


Section
9.08.         No Other Duties; Other Agents; Etc.


 


Each of RBCCM and Bank
of America is hereby appointed a Syndication Agent hereunder, and each Lender and each LC Issuer hereby authorizes each of RBCCM
and Bank of America to act as a Syndication Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Any Syndication
Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto, may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of
its Affiliates. Each of BNP, Associated Bank, Wells Fargo and BMO is hereby appointed a Co-Documentation Agent hereunder, and each
Lender and each LC Issuer hereby authorizes each of BNP, Associated Bank, Wells Fargo and BMO to act as a Co-Documentation Agent
in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Any Documentation Agent, without consent of or notice to any
party hereto, may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. The Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation
Agents and any other Agent may resign from such role at any time, with immediate effect, by giving prior written notice thereof
to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Lead Arrangers, Joint
Lead Bookrunners, Syndication Agents or Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative
Agent, a Lender or an LC Issuer hereunder.


 


Section
9.09.         Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.


 


In case of the pendency
of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial
proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of the Revolving Loan
shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative
Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:


 


(a)         to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Revolving Loans and
all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Lenders, the LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel
and all other amounts due the Lenders, the LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07, 10.04
and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and


 




    	 	130	 



     


    

 


(b)         to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;


 


and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each
LC Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the
making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the LC Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts
due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.07, 10.04 and 10.05.


 


Nothing contained herein
shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or
any LC Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any
Lender or any LC Issuer or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any LC Issuer
in any such proceeding.


 


Section
9.10.         Indemnification of Agent-Related Persons.


 


Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed
by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their Pro
Rata Share (without giving effect to the phrase “with respect to any Class” or any similar phase in the definition
thereof) of the total Revolving Commitments with respect to the Revolving Loans held on the date on which indemnification is sought,
and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided
that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the
extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related
Person’s own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct; and provided, further, that no action taken
in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute bad faith, gross negligence or willful
misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent-Related Person
upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by such Agent-Related
Person in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent-Related
Person is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive the
payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent or any Agent-Related Person.


 




    	 	131	 



     


    

 


Section
9.11.         Withholding Tax.


 


To the extent required
by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equal to any applicable
withholding Tax. If the IRS or any Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold
Tax from any amount paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered
or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that
rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative
Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting or expanding
the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise,
including any penalties, additions to Tax or interest thereon, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and
any out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time
owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
Article 9. The agreements in this Article 9 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative
Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Loans and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under this Agreement. Unless required by applicable laws, at no time shall the Administrative
Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds
paid for the account of such Lender.


 


ARTICLE 10

Miscellaneous


 


Section
10.01.       Amendments and Waivers.


 


No amendment or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by any Borrower or any other Credit
Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrowers or the applicable Credit
Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that the Administrative Agent may, with
the consent of the Borrowers only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure any ambiguity,
omission, defect or inconsistency (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent), so long as (i) such amendment, modification
or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or any LC Issuer and (ii) the Lenders or the LC Issuers shall
have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received,
within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders or the LC Issuers, a written notice from the Required Lenders
stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; provided, further, that no such amendment, waiver or
consent shall:


 




    	 	132	 



     


    

 


(a)         extend
or increase the Revolving Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Revolving Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 8.02)

representation, warranty, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any Revolving Commitment of any
Lender;


 


(b)         postpone
or delay the maturity of the Revolving Loans or any Reimbursement Obligations or any date for the payment of any interest or fees
due to the Lenders (or any of them) or any LC Issuer hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount of, or rate,
as applicable, waive or excuse any such payment, without the written consent of each Lender and each LC Issuer directly and adversely
affected thereby (other than as a result of waiving (i) an Event of Default in accordance with the terms hereof, (ii) default
interest hereunder to the extent a waiver of the underlying default giving rise to such default interest does not require a vote
of all Lenders and all LC Issuers or (iii) a mandatory prepayment to be made hereunder);

the definition of “Pro Rata Share” without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided

to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document without the written
consent of each Lender (other than any such assignment or transfer permitted by Section 7.06);

Agent, the Lead Arrangers or the Syndication Agents, in each case, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers
or the Syndication Agents, as applicable;


 




    	 	133	 



     


    

 


(j)          release
all or substantially all of the Cash Collateral except as expressly permitted under the Loan Documents and except in connection

Code or other sale or disposition of assets in connection with an enforcement action with respect to the Cash Collateral, as applicable,

the LC Issuers;


 


(k)         extend
the stated expiration date of any Facility LC beyond the Commitment Termination Date without the written consent of each Lender,

(l)          affect
the rights or obligations of one or more members of a Class (the “Subject Class”) in an adverse manner from
its effect on the rights or obligations of any other Class without the written consent of Revolving Lenders in the Subject Class
having or holding Revolving Exposure and unused Revolving Commitments representing more than 50% of the aggregate Revolving Exposure
and unused Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders in the Subject Class, in addition to any other consents required pursuant
to this Credit Agreement;


 


provided, further, that (i) no
such agreement shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Required Lenders or all the Lenders,
as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except
with respect to the removal of the Administrative Agent), (ii) no such agreement shall, unless in writing signed by the LC Issuers
in addition to the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, as the case may be, amend any provision with respect to the rights and
duties of the LC Issuers and (iii) any fee agreement referred to in Section 2.07 may be amended, or rights or
privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no
Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except for any amendment,
waiver or consent in clauses (a) and (b) of the second proviso in Section 10.01.


 


Section
10.02.         Notices.


 


(a)         Unless
otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including
by facsimile or electronic transmission). All such written notices shall be mailed, emailed, faxed or delivered to the applicable
address, facsimile number (provided that any matter transmitted by the Borrowers by facsimile (1) shall be promptly

promptly by delivery of a hard copy original thereof) or (subject to clause (b) below) electronic mail address, and
all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone
number, as follows:


 


(i)          if

or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 10.02 or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic
mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the other parties; and


 




    	 	134	 



     


    

 


(ii)         if

its administrative questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall
be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.


 


All such notices and other
communications shall be deemed to be given or made upon the earlier to occur of (i) actual receipt by the relevant party hereto
and (ii) (A) if delivered by hand or by courier, when signed for by or on behalf of the relevant party hereto; (B) if
delivered by mail, four Business Days after deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile or electronic

and other communications to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the LC Issuers hereunder may be delivered or furnished by
electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites, including the Platform) pursuant to procedures approved
by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to the Administrative Agent, any Lender
or any LC Issuer pursuant to Article 2 if such Person has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of
receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may, in its discretion,
agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by
it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative
Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the
sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested”
function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment); provided that if such notice or other communication
is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at
the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient and (B) notices or communications posted to an Internet
or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described
in the foregoing subclause (A) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website

(2)         The
Parent Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not
necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes
the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent that such losses, costs, expenses or liabilities are
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.


 


(3)         The
Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided “as is” and “as available”. None of the
Agent-Related Persons warrant the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the Approved Electronic Communications or the Platform
and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty

the Lenders (or to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Administrative Agent or Lender enforces any security
interests or exercises any right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such enforcement or the proceeds of such set-off

and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any
of its rights or obligations hereunder (other than any transfer permitted pursuant to a provision hereof, including Section
7.06) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer
any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b)
or (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(d) (and any other attempted

(as defined below) to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by

that:


 




    	 	139	 



     


    

 


(i)           each
of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(a),
(f) or (g), the Borrowers shall have provided their consent to such assignment (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall be required in the case
of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;


 


(ii)          each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Loans or the Revolving Commitments assigned under the Facility;


 


(iii)         the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption; such Assignment
and Assumption to be (1) electronically executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent via an electronic settlement system
then acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually) and (2) delivered
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, unless waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion;


 


(iv)         if
the Eligible Assignee shall not be a Lender, (1) the relevant assignor, at the time that it notifies the Administrative Agent of
such proposed assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed IRS Form W-9 or applicable IRS Form W-8 of
the proposed Eligible Assignee and (2) such Eligible Assignee shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire,
in the form prescribed by the Administrative Agent; and


 


(v)          except
in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitment
at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect
to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as
of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade
Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $2,500,000, unless each
of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required
so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g).


 


Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment
and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement (provided that, with
respect to circumstances in effect on the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption, an Eligible Assignee shall not be entitled
to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive had
the assignment not taken place), and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering
all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but
shall continue to be entitled to the benefits (and to have the obligations) of Sections 3.01, 3.03, 3.04,
10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment).
Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Revolving Loan Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment
or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection (b) shall
be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with Section 10.07(d).


 




    	 	140	 



     


    

 


(c)         Register.
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s
Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of
the Lenders, and the Revolving Commitments of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Revolving Loans owing to,
each Lender and participation of each Lender in Facility LCs pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).
The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes
of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and
each Lender (with respect to its own interests in the Facility only) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable
prior notice. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided
in this paragraph.


 


(d)         Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations
to any Person (other than a natural person or the Parent Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower) (each,
a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment and/or the owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations
under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto
for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue
to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the
sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant.
Except to the extent limited by Section 10.07(e), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Sections (including
Section 3.01(e)) and Section 3.07, as if such Participant were a Lender) to the same extent as if it were
a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(b); provided that such Participant
agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 3.01(e) and Section 3.07, as if such Participant were a Lender.
To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though
it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.10 as though it were a Lender.


 




    	 	141	 



     


    

 


Each Lender that sells
a participation pursuant to this Section 10.07(d) shall, acting for itself and, solely for this purpose, as an agent
of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts of
(and stated interest on) each participant’s participation interest with respect to the Revolving Loans or other obligations
under the Loan Documents (each, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation
to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information
relating to a participant’s interest in any Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement)
except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary
to establish that such Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c)
of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and
such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all
purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.


 


(e)         Limitations
upon Participant Rights. A Credit Party shall not be obligated to make any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.03
than the Credit Party would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation; provided that this Section 10.07(e)
shall not apply if the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent and
shall not apply to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the
Participant acquired the applicable participation.


 


(f)         Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Revolving Loan Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of
its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.


 


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

Lender, then a Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such
Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents
required by, Section 10.07 (other than the consent of the Agent in the event the proposed assignee is another Lender
or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related
Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that:


 


(a)         the
Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee specified in Section 10.07(b) from the Borrowers; and


 




    	 	145	 



     


    

 


(b)         such
Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Sections 2.05(c),
3.01, 3.03 and 3.04) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest
and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts).


 


A Lender shall not be required
to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment
and delegation cease to apply.


 


No action by or consent
of a Defaulting Lender, a Declining Lender described above or a Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with such
assignment (and such Defaulting Lender, Declining Lender or Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered
an appropriately completed Assignment and Assumption to effect such assignment), which shall be immediately and automatically effective
upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, such Defaulting
Lender, such Declining Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with this Section 10.14;
provided that if such Defaulting Lender, such Declining Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender does not comply with this Section 10.14
within one Business Day after a Borrower’s request, compliance with this Section 10.14 shall not be required
to effect such assignment.


 


Section
10.15.         Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.


 


(a)         This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.


 


(b)         Each

Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District
of New York, and any relevant appellate court, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or
for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in
respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by
law, in such Federal court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive
and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. The Parent Borrower
hereby appoints the Company, and the Company hereby accepts such appointment, as agent for service of process of the Parent Borrower
in any matter related to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Nothing in any Loan Document shall affect any right that any
Lender or the Administrative Agent may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against any
Credit Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction in the courts of any jurisdiction in the event such action or
proceeding cannot be heard or otherwise determined in the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County or
the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York.

(c)         Each
of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection
that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan
Document in any court referred to in the first sentence of clause (b) of this Section. Each party hereto irrevocably
waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such suit, action
or proceeding in any such court.


 


(d)         The
Parent Borrower hereby appoints the Company, as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any legal suit, action
or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby that may be instituted in any court.


 


(e)         Each
party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.02. Nothing
in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.


 


Section
10.16.         Waiver of Jury Trial.


 


EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT
HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT
OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY
LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER FOUNDED
IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY
OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.


 


Section

Each Lender and the Administrative
Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA

to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.


 




    	 	147	 



     


    

 


Section
10.18.         Entire Agreement.


 


This Agreement, together
with the other Loan Documents and any separate agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, embodies the
entire agreement and understanding among the Credit Parties, the Lenders, the LC Issuers and the Administrative Agent and supersedes
all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof
and thereof.


 


Section
10.19.         Independence of Covenants.


 


All covenants hereunder
shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact
that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid
the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.


 


Section
10.20.         Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders Right.


 


The obligations of Lenders
hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Revolving Commitment of any other Lender hereunder.
Nothing contained herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed
to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any
time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce
its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding
for such purpose.


 


Section
10.21.         No Fiduciary Duty.


 


The Administrative Agent,
each Lender, each LC Issuer and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”),
may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Credit
Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship
or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates,
on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (a) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including
the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders,
on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other, and (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto,
(i) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its stockholders or its affiliates
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process
leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Credit Party, its stockholders
or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Credit Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the
Loan Documents and (ii) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Credit Party, its
management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own
legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment
with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender
has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, in connection
with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

Section
10.22.         Joint and Several Liability.


 


(a)         Each
Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for the obligations of the other Borrower hereunder, including with respect
to the payment of principal of and interest on all Revolving Loans and all Reimbursement Obligations and the payment of fees and
indemnities and reimbursement of costs and expenses.


 


(b)         The
Parent Borrower hereby appoints the Company as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for purposes of (w) making any requests
required under this Agreement, (x) the giving of notices by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (y)
the delivery of any documents, agreements, instruments, requests, consents, approvals, certificates, reports, statements or written
materials required to be delivered by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (z) all other purposes
incidental to any of the foregoing.


 


(c)         The
Parent Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Company as the agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of the Parent Borrower
shall be binding upon the Parent Borrower to the same extent as if directly taken by the Parent Borrower and that the Administrative
Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, approval, report, statement, instrument, agreement, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed or sent by the Company.


 


Section
10.23.         Judgment Currency.


 


(a)         This
is an international loan transaction in which the specification of a particular currency (the “Specified Currency”)
and place of payment (the “Specified Place”) is of the essence, and the obligation of each Credit Party under
this Agreement to make payment to or for account of a Guaranteed Party in the Specified Currency shall not be discharged or satisfied
by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed or converted into any other currency or in another place except to
the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by such Guaranteed Party in the Specified Place of the
full amount of the Specified Currency payable to such Guaranteed Party under this Agreement.


 


(b)         If
for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in the Specified Currency into
another currency (the “Judgment Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be that at which
in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Specified Currency at the principal office
of the Administrative Agent in the Specified Place with the Judgment Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which
such judgment is rendered. The obligation of each Credit Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent
or any other Guaranteed Party (the “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied
in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person
of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the Judgment Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase and transfer of the Specified Currency to the Specified Place with the amount of the Judgment Currency so adjudged to
be due; and each Credit Party hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such
Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Specified Currency, the amount (if any) by which the
sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Specified Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Specified Currency so
purchased and transferred.

Section
10.24.         Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party
hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability
is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to,
and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 


(a)           the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which
may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and


 


		(b)	the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability,
including, if applicable:



 


(i)          a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 


(ii)         a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or
other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document; or


 


(iii)        the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution
Authority.
