the Financing Agreement and in each other Loan Document, certificate or other writing delivered to any Agent or any Lender pursuant hereto or thereto on or prior to the date hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such
materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that already are qualified or modified as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect” in the text thereof, which representations and warranties
shall be true and correct in all respects subject to such qualification) on and as of the date hereof, 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 (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations or warranties that already are qualified or modified as to “materiality” or “Material
Adverse Effect” in the text thereof, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects subject to such qualification) on and as of such earlier date. No Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be

(a) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment (including, without limitation, Section 5) and
the performance by each Loan Party of the Financing Agreement, as amended hereby, has been duly authorized by all necessary action, and each Loan Party has all requisite power, authority and legal right to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment

those terms are defined below, regarding or relating to the Financing Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent, the Lenders and the Loan Parties desire to resolve each and every one of such Claims in
conjunction with the execution of this Amendment and thus each Loan Party makes the releases contained in this Section 5. In consideration of the Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent, and the Lenders entering into this Amendment
and agreeing to substantial concessions as set forth herein, each Loan Party hereby fully and unconditionally releases and forever discharges each of the Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Service Agent and the Lenders, and their respective directors,
officers, employees, subsidiaries, branches, affiliates, attorneys, agents, representatives, successors and assigns and all persons, firms, corporations and organizations acting on any of their behalves (collectively, the “Released
Parties”), of and from any and all claims, allegations, causes of action, costs or demands and liabilities, of whatever kind or nature, from the beginning of the world to the date on which this Amendment is executed, whether known or
unknown, liquidated or unliquidated, fixed or contingent, asserted or unasserted, foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, anticipated or unanticipated, which any Loan Party has, had, claims to have had or hereafter
claims to have against the Released Parties by reason of any act or omission on the part of the Released Parties, or any of them, occurring prior to the date on which this Amendment is executed, including all such loss or damage of any kind
heretofore sustained or that may arise as a consequence of the dealings among the parties up to and including the date on which this Amendment is executed, including the administration or enforcement of the Revolving Loans, the Term Loans, the
Obligations, the Financing Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, in each case, regarding or relating to the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents (collectively, all of the foregoing, the “Claims”). Each Loan Party
represents and warrants that it has no knowledge of any claim by it against the Released Parties or of any facts or acts of omissions of the Released Parties which on the date hereof would be the basis of a claim by any Loan Party against the
Released Parties which is not released hereby, in each case, regarding or relating to the Financing Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Loan Party represents and warrants that the foregoing constitutes a full and complete release of all
such Claims.

the other Loan Documents to the “Financing Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Financing Agreement shall mean the Financing Agreement as amended by this

collateral security for the obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with their respective terms, and acknowledges that all of such Liens and security interests, and all Collateral heretofore pledged as security for such obligations,
continue to be and remain collateral for such obligations from and after the date hereof. 
 (c) Counterparts. This Amendment may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed
counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.

demand all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of the Agent, Service Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 10.2 of the Financing Agreement in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of this Amendment.
