Loans is deferred.

(d) Any payments of the Loans (other than Repurchases described in paragraph (e) below), including
mandatory and optional prepayments, shall be applied to scheduled installments of the Scheduled Amortization Amounts in direct order of maturity. Any such payments shall also be credited towards the Penalty Amortization Amount for the applicable
six-month period (i.e., January to June or July to December) in which such payment is made until the applicable Penalty Amortization Amount is paid in full in cash and thereafter shall be credited to Penalty Amortization Amounts in direct order.
Repayments of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

(e) Each Repurchase of Loans pursuant to Sections 2.4(d) and 6.12(a) (i) shall be deemed a repayment of Loans in an
amount equal to the principal amount of the Loans Repurchased and (ii) shall reduce the remaining Scheduled Amortization Amounts and Penalty

6.12(a) shall reduce the portion of the Scheduled Amortization Amount or Penalty Amortization Amount payable in respect of any Loan owed to any Lender that has not participated in such Repurchase.

(f) In the event that the 2020 Notes shall have been exchanged for, or repaid with the proceeds of, Debt permitted to be incurred by
Section 6.1(b)(ii) (the 2020 Notes Exchange), the Scheduled Amortization Amount and the Penalty Amortization Amount set forth in clause (a) above on each date set forth in clause (a) above occurring after the
consummation of the 2020 Notes Exchange shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to the Additional/Reduced Scheduled Amortization Amount or Additional/Reduced Penalty Amortization Amount, as applicable, set forth in the schedule below

be issued by the Borrower or any Subsidiary other than to the Borrower or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary (including in any public, private or PIPE transaction), an amount equal to the CRA Ratable Share of 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof
shall be applied to prepayment of the Loans as set forth in clause (c) below;

(iii) if the Borrower or
any Subsidiary (other than an SPE Subsidiary) receives any Realized Proceeds after the Closing Date, an amount equal to the Prepayment Percentage of such Realized Proceeds shall be deposited in the Prepayment Deposit Account, and an amount equal to
the CRA Ratable Share thereof shall be applied to prepayment of the Loans as set forth in clause (c) below. For purposes of determining prepayments under this Section 2.4(b)(iii) with respect to Secondary Realized Proceeds, only
that portion of any Secondary Realized Proceeds equal to the CRA Ratable Share of the Prepayment Percentage multiplied by the excess of such Secondary Realized Proceeds over the amount of the Retained Cash used to make the applicable Portfolio
Investment (if greater than zero) shall be required to be applied to prepayment of the Loans; and

(iv) if, for any Fiscal Year of the Borrower (or, in the case of Fiscal Year
2010, the portion thereof beginning on July 1, 2010), there shall be Excess Cash Flow, an amount equal to the CRA Ratable Share of the Prepayment Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year shall be required to be applied to prepayment
of Loans as set forth in clause (c) below;

provided that (x) the aggregate amount of funds from any source required to be
applied to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Excess Closing Payment and (y) no prepayment of the Loans shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.4(b) and no
deposits in the Prepayment Deposit Account pursuant to Section 2.4(c) shall be required until the aggregate amount that but for clause (x) above would be required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.4(b) exceeds the Excess Closing Payment.

(c) Application of Prepayments. Unless any of the following
amounts required to be applied to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(b) have been previously delivered to the Administrative Agent for application to the repayment of the Loans as provided herein:

(A) the Administrative Agent the CRA Ratable Share of such amount, for application to the prepayment of the Loans (and the Administrative Agent shall apply such funds to repay Loans in a principal amount equal to such amount on such day;
provided that the Administrative Agent may repay Loans in a principal amount equal to such amount on the following Business Day if the Administrative Agent has received such Borrowers direction after 2:00PM), and (B) the Indenture
Trustee the Securities Ratable Share of such amount, for application to the redemption of the Amortizing Securities in a principal amount equal to such amount;

(v) on the

direction after 2:00 P.M.), an amount as the Borrower shall direct (unless a Notice of Acceleration shall be in effect, in which case the Directing Parties shall direct) as being equal to the CRA Ratable Share of the amount set forth in the
Quarterly Prepayment Schedule for the immediately prior Fiscal Quarter to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Sections 2.4(b)(i) through and including clause (iv) with respect to events that have occurred during

Amortizing Securities in a principal amount equal to the Securities Ratable Share of the amount set forth in the Quarterly Prepayment Schedule for the immediately prior Fiscal Quarter as the amount required to be applied to the redemption of the
Amortizing Securities pursuant to the corresponding provisions of the Indenture with respect to events that have occurred during the prior Fiscal Quarter (or, if a Quarterly Prepayment Schedule has not been delivered, the Securities Ratable Share of
the amount on deposit in the Prepayment Deposit Account), and (2) if no Notice of Acceleration is in effect, the Borrower, an amount equal to the Prepayment Deposit Excess Amount, if any; and

(vi) notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Notice of Acceleration is in effect under the Collateral Trust Agreement, the Directing Parties

---

(d) Other Prepayments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, the Borrower may Repurchase the Loans to the extent and in the manner described in Section 6.12(a).

Section 2.5. Default Rate.

(a) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, unpaid
interest on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall automatically bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate (in addition to Additional Interest and
any increase in the Applicable Percentage in effect on each applicable day) which would otherwise be applicable thereto (or if no rate is applicable, whether in respect of interest, fees or other amounts, then 2% per annum in excess of the Base
Rate plus the Applicable Percentage) (Default Interest).

(b) Interest on each Loan shall be payable
in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be payable from time to time on demand by the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.6. Conversion Options.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable
written notice of such election (each a Notice of Conversion) by 11:00 A.M. at least two (2) Business Days in advance. In addition, the Borrower may elect from time to time to convert LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans by
giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice by 11:00 A.M. at least one (1) Business Day in advance. A form of Notice of Conversion is attached as Exhibit D. If the date upon which a Base Rate Loan is to be converted to a
LIBOR Rate Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. All or any part of outstanding Loans may be converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Base Rate Loan may be converted
into a LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) partial conversions shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. LIBOR Rate Loans
may only be converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. If the date upon which a LIBOR Rate Loan is to be converted to a Base Rate Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next
succeeding Business Day and during the period from such last day of an Interest Period to such succeeding Business Day such Loan shall bear interest as if it were a Base Rate Loan.

(b) Any LIBOR Rate Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the
Borrower with the notice provisions contained in Section 2.6(a); provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case such Loan shall be
automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower shall fail to give timely notice of an election to continue a LIBOR Rate Loan, or the continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans is
not permitted hereunder, such LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the



38



---

applicable Interest Period with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion of LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate
Loans hereunder.

Section 2.7. Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest payable hereunder with respect to any Base Rate Loan based on the Prime Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of
365 days (or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual days elapsed. All other computations of per annum fees, interest and other amounts payable hereunder shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent
shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of the LIBOR Rate on the Business Day of the determination thereof. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate shall
become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Base Rate shall become effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of
each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this
Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the computations used by the
Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate.

(c) It is the intent of the Lenders and the Borrowers to conform to
and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between the Lenders and the Borrower are hereby limited by the provisions of this paragraph which shall override and control all such agreements,
whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any Loan), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted
for, charged, or received under this Agreement, under the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permissible under Applicable Law. If, from any possible construction of this Agreement or any other document, interest would
otherwise be payable in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph and such interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious amount permitted under
Applicable Law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest on the Loans under Applicable Law and which would, apart from this provision,
be in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest,
or refunded to the Borrower or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal amount of the Loans. The right to demand payment of the Loans or any other amount required to be
paid hereunder does not include the right to receive any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of such demand. All interest paid or
agreed to be paid to the Lenders with respect to the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread



39



---

throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount
permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 2.8. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Allocation of Payments Before Event of Default. Each payment under this Agreement or any Note shall be applied as otherwise set
forth in this Agreement and then shall be applied, first, to any fees, costs or expenses then due and owing by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.13 and 9.5, second, to interest then due and owing hereunder and
under the Notes and, third, to principal then due and owing hereunder and under the Notes. Each payment on account of any fees pursuant to Section 2.3 (other than the Administrative Agent fee referred to in
Section 2.3(a)) shall be made pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due and owing. Each optional prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.4(a);
provided that prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be applied in accordance with such Section. Each mandatory prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with
Section 2.4(c). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim (except as provided in Section 2.14(b)) and
shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agents office specified in Section 9.2 in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 P.M. on the date when due. All amounts owing
under this Agreement are payable in Dollars. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on LIBOR Rate Loans)
becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such
extension. If any payment on a LIBOR Rate Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment
into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Lenders acknowledge and agree (x) the Borrower may Repurchase Loans from time to time on
a non-pro rata basis to the extent permitted by Sections 2.4(d) and 6.12 and (y) subsequent payments of the Loans will be applied to reflect any such prior non pro rata Repurchases pursuant to
Section 6.12.

(b) Allocation of Payments After Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement to the contrary, subject to Sections 3.4(a) and (b) of the Collateral Trust Agreement, after the Loans and all other amounts under this Agreement shall have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of
Section 7.2 hereof, all amounts collected or received by the Collateral Trustee, Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of the Loans or any other amounts outstanding hereunder shall be paid over or delivered as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys and consultants fees) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders hereunder;



40



---

SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable
attorneys and consultants fees pursuant to Section 9.5) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing their rights hereunder;

FOURTH, to the payment of all accrued fees payable under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and all accrued
interest on the Loans;

FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans;

SIXTH, to all other amounts and obligations due and payable hereunder or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses
FIRST through FIFTH above; and

SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to
whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be
applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; and (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion of the then
outstanding Loans held by such Lender) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses FOURTH and FIFTH above.

(c) The Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Collateral Trust Agreement provides for the allocation of proceeds of and value of
Collateral on the terms set forth therein.

Section 2.9. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower, prior to the date on which any
payment is due from it hereunder (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that the Borrower does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made or will make such payment when due, and the
Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount equal to the portion of such assumed payment to which such Lender is entitled hereunder, and if the
Borrower has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to such Lender. If such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent on a date after
the date such amount was made available to such Lender, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such
Lender to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(b) A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Borrower or any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this
Section 2.9 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.



41

Section 2.10. Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (i) the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period, or (ii) the
Required Lenders shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding LIBOR Rate Loans during such
Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Borrower, and the Lenders at least two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. Unless the
Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such telephone notice that it wishes to rescind or modify its request regarding such LIBOR Rate Loans any Loans that were requested to be made as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made as
Base Rate Loans and any Loans that were requested to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Rate Loans shall remain as or be converted into Base Rate Loans. Until any such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Loans
shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, LIBOR Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

Section 2.11. Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law or in the interpretation or
application thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority to any Lender shall make it unlawful for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement or to obtain in the interbank
eurocurrency market through its Applicable Lending Office the funds with which to make such Loans, (a) such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof, (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make
LIBOR Rate Loans or continue LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall give notice that the condition or situation which gave rise to the suspension shall no longer exist, and (c) such Lenders
Loans then outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law as Base Rate Loans. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender,
upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for actual and direct costs (but not including anticipated profits) reasonably incurred by such Lender in making any repayment in accordance with this
Section 2.11 including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to
this Section 2.11 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its
Applicable Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which may otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section 2.11; provided that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal
or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.



42

Section 2.12. Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender
with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change
the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or taxes otherwise excluded in Section 2.14(a));

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against
assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the
LIBOR Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans or to reduce any
amount receivable hereunder or under any Note, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable
which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by such Lender with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 submitted by such Lender, through the
Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Applicable Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which
might otherwise be payable pursuant to this paragraph of this Section 2.12; provided that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender to
be material.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Applicable Law
regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from
any central bank or Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders or such corporations capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a
level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lenders or such corporations policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount
reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as shall be certified by such Lender as being required
to compensate it for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable under this Section 2.12 submitted by a Lender (which certificate shall include a description of the basis for the computation), through the
Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.



43



---

(c) The agreements in this Section 2.12 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.13. Indemnity.

The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender harmless from any funding loss or expense which
such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) the failure by the Borrower to pay the principal amount of or interest on any Loan by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, (b) the failure of the Borrower to accept a
borrowing after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, (c) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, and/or (d) the making by
the Borrower of a prepayment of a Loan, or the conversion thereof, on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, in each case including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees
payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Loans hereunder. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold each Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense
which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the
conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor or (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered hereto. A certificate as
to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.13 submitted by any Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower (which certificate must be delivered to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days
following such default, prepayment or conversion) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 2.13 shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts
payable hereunder.

Section 2.14. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any Note will be, except as provided in Section 2.14(b), made free
and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding any income taxes or other tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of a Lender, including in the nature of franchise taxes, pursuant to
the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein or as a result of a connection between such Lender
and any jurisdiction other than a connection solely resulting from entering into this Agreement or the other transactions contemplated hereunder) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as Taxes). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as
may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement or under any Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note. The Borrower will
furnish to the



44



---

Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to Applicable Law certified copies (to the extent reasonably available and required by law) of
tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees
to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.6(b) (unless the respective
Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) if the Lender is a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Code, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (or successor forms) certifying such Lenders entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect
to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, or (ii) if the Lender is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY as set forth in
clause (i) above. In addition, each Lender agrees that it will deliver, to the extent it may lawfully do so, upon the Borrowers request or upon such Lender becoming aware of the necessity therefor, updated versions of the foregoing, as
applicable, whenever the previous certification has become obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, together with such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption
from United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.14(a), but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the
Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable
hereunder for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (y) the Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to
Section 2.14(a) hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of any such Taxes if (I) such Lender has not provided to the Borrower the Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the Borrower pursuant
to this Section 2.14(b) and such Taxes are a result of failure to provide such Forms, except to the extent that such failure to provide such Forms is attributable to the Lenders inability to provide such Forms as a result of the
adoption or change of any law, rule or regulation or change in the official interpretation thereof by any federal, state, local court or governmental agency, authority, instrumentality or regulatory or legislative body after the date on which such
Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or (II) the obligation to make such gross-up payments arises as a result of U.S. federal withholding tax law in effect on the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except in the case of a
Lender that is an assignee under Section 9.6, to the extent such Lenders assignor, if any, would be entitled to receive such gross-up payments. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to
indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.14(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the
immediately preceding sentence as a result of the adoption or change of any law, rule or regulation or change in the official interpretation thereof by any federal, state or local court, or governmental agency, authority, instrumentality or
regulatory or legislative body, after the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes.

(c) Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its
Applicable Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section 2.14; provided that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or
legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(d) If the Borrower pays any
additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.14 with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that the
Borrower will bear all expenses involved in such efforts and such Lender shall have no obligation to use reasonable efforts if either (i) it is in an excess foreign tax credit position or (ii) it believes in good faith, in its sole
discretion, that claiming a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it. In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to the Borrower an amount that such Lender determines, in its sole
discretion, is equal to the net tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Borrower, but only to the extent of additional amounts paid by the Borrower under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving
rise to such refund. Nothing contained in this Section 2.14 shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis of its determination referred to in
the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.14 to the Borrower or any other party.

(e) The agreements in
this Section 2.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.15. Removal of Lenders.

The Borrower shall be permitted to replace with a replacement financial institution reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
any Lender that requests reimbursement for amounts owing or payments of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.12 or 2.14; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Applicable Law,
(ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender pursuant to the
Credit Documents on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.13 if any LIBOR Rate Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day
of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6(b) (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the
registration and processing fee referred to therein), (vi) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay to the replaced Lender all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.11,
2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, and (vii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. In the event
any replaced Lender fails to execute the agreements required under Section 9.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Administrative Agent may, upon two
(2)



46



---

Business Days prior written notice to such replaced Lender, execute such agreements on behalf of such replaced Lender. The Borrower shall not be entitled to replace a Lender if, prior to
such replacement, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such replacement cease to apply.

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Credit 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 and in connection therewith hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Collateral Trust Agreement and any Security Document to which the Administrative Agent is to become a party and to
perform its obligations thereunder. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Loan Parties shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.



81

Section 8.2. Nature of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit
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 and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of
the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Section 8.3. Exculpatory Provisions.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit
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 Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent 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 Credit 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 Credit Document or Applicable Law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable
for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliated Entities that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as 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 7.2 and 9.1) or
(ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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 Credit 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 Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IVor
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.4. 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 Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), 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 8.5. Notice of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder
unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a notice of default. In the event that the
Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed
by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not taken, only with the consent or upon the
authorization of the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as the case may be.

Section 8.6. Non-Reliance on
Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any
of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be
deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative
Agent or



83



---

any other Lender or any of their 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 Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.7. Indemnification.

The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, acting hereunder for and on behalf of such Person, and its
officers, directors, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Loan Percentages in effect on the date on which
indemnification is sought under this Section, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against any such indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of any Credit Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken
or omitted by any such indemnitee under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments,
suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from such indemnitees gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and payment of the Notes, and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 8.8. Administrative
Agent in Its Individual Capacity.

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 the Borrower 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 8.9. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation,
the Required Lenders shall have the right, absent an Event of Default, with the Borrowers consent, to appoint a successor; provided that if Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. shall resign as Administrative Agent and if the Borrower shall request
that Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Citibank, N.A., Citicorp USA, Inc. or Citicorp North America, Inc. (or any of their affiliates as may be appropriate to serve in such capacity (Citi)) shall agree to act as successor
Administrative Agent, then if Citi shall agree to act in such role, then it is hereby agreed by the Lenders that Citi shall succeed as Administrative Agent hereunder. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and
shall



84



---

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, appoint a successor Administrative Agent provided further that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no Person has accepted such appointment, 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 Credit Documents 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 directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. 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 Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a
successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agents resignation hereunder and under the other Credit
Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.5 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.

Section 8.10. Other Agents.

None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a book runner or
joint lead arranger shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of
the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in
deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

ARTICLE IX.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1. Amendments and Waivers.

Neither this Agreement nor any of the other Credit Documents, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, modified, extended,
restated, replaced, waived or supplemented (by amendment, waiver, consent or otherwise) except in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The Required Lenders may or with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent
may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the Borrower written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or
changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrower hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive or consent to the departure from, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders may



85



---

specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided that no such
amendment, supplement, modification, release, waiver or consent shall:

(i) reduce the amount or extend the
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or Note or any installment thereon, or reduce the amount or stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate set forth in
Section 2.5 which shall be determined by a vote of the Required Lenders) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that it is
understood and agreed that no waiver, reduction or deferral of a mandatory prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.4(b) shall constitute a reduction of the amount of, or an extension of the scheduled date of, the scheduled date of
maturity of, or any installment of, any Loan or Note (any such waiver, reduction or deferral under Section 2.4(b) shall be determined by a vote of the Required Lenders); or

(ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required
Lenders, without the written consent of all of the Lenders; or

(iii) release the Borrower from its obligations
hereunder, without the written consent of all of the Lenders; or

(iv) subordinate the Loans to any other Debt
without the written consent of all of the Lenders; or

(v) permit the Borrower to assign or transfer any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or other Credit Documents without the written consent of all of the Lenders; or

(vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of the Credit Documents requiring consent, approval or request of the Required
Lenders or all Lenders without the written consent of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as appropriate; or

(vii) amend, modify or waive the order in which Obligations are paid in Section 2.8(b) or
Section 9.7 following acceleration of payment of the Loans in accordance with Section 7.2 without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or

(viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Article VIII without the written consent of the then Administrative
Agent; or

(ix) except as otherwise provided in the Credit Documents, release all or substantially all of the
Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Credit Documents without the written consent of each Lender;



86



---

provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action.

In the event that any Lender (a Non-Consenting Lender) fails to consent to any proposed amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent with respect to any provision hereof or of any other Credit Document that requires the unanimous approval of all of the Lenders or the approval of all of the Lenders directly affected thereby, in each case in
accordance with the terms of this Section 9.1, the Borrower shall be permitted to replace such Non-Consenting Lender with a replacement financial institution satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, so long as the consent of the
Required Lenders shall have been obtained with respect to such amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent; provided that (A) such replacement does not conflict with any Applicable Law, (B) the replacement financial
institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to the Credit Documents on or prior to the date of replacement, (C) the replacement financial institution shall approve the proposed
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent, (D) the Borrower shall be liable to the Non-Consenting Lender under Section 2.13 if any LIBOR Rate Loan owing to the Non-Consenting Lender shall be purchased other than on the
last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (E) the Non-Consenting Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.6(b) (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to
pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (F) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay to the Non-Consenting Lender all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to
Section 2.11, 2.12, 2.13 or 2.14, as the case may be, (G) the Borrower provides at least three (3) Business Days prior notice to the Non-Consenting Lender, and (H) any such replacement shall not
be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the Non-Consenting Lender. In the event any Non-Consenting Lender fails to execute the agreements required under
Section 9.6 in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 9.1, the Administrative Agent may, upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Non-Consenting Lender, execute such agreements on
behalf of the Non-Consenting Lender.

Any such waiver, any such amendment, supplement or modification and any such release
shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be
restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans and Notes and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend
to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding any of the
foregoing to the contrary, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of Article VIII (other than the provisions of Section 8.9); provided that the
Administrative Agent will provide written notice to the Borrower of any such amendment, modification or waiver. In addition, the Borrower and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to modify this Agreement



87



---

by unilaterally amending or supplementing Schedule 1.1(a) from time to time in the manner requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to reflect any
assignments or transfers of the Loans as provided for hereunder; provided that the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of any such modification to the Borrower and each Lender.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the Credit Documents may be amended without the consent of the Lenders to the
extent set forth in Section 6.3 of the Collateral Trust Agreement.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the
Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of
Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein.

Loans held by the
Borrower shall have no voting rights and shall be deemed to not be outstanding for purposes of determining if requisite Lender consent has been obtained for any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of or to any of the Credit Documents with
respect to any matter thereunder requiring such consent.

Section 9.2. Notices.

Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lenders Loans at the time owing to
it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the principal outstanding balance of the
Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if a Trade Date is specified in the
Assignment and Assumption, as of such Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not

made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan assigned.

paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Loan if such assignment is to a Person
that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender.

have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12,
2.14 and 9.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its
offices in Charlotte, North Carolina 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 principal amounts of the Loans owing to each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from
time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or
notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrowers Affiliated Entities) (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 the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lenders obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender
shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with
such Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells
such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by
law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.7 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.8 as though it were a Lender.



93

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12 and 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such
Participant is made with the Borrowers prior written consent. A Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14 unless the Borrower is notified of the
participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under
this Agreement or its Note 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.

Section 9.7. Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) Except to the extent this Agreement (including amendments hereto), any other Credit Document or a court order expressly provides for
payments to be allocated to the Administrative Agent or a particular Lender or Lenders, each Lender agrees that if any Lender (a Benefited Lender) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest
thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 7.1(e), or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such
payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lenders Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each
such other Lenders Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or
proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits
returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lenders Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with
respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and
remedies of the Lenders provided by law (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off), each Lender and its Affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to any Loan Party, any such notice being expressly waived by each Loan Party
to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any Currency, and any other credits,
indebtedness or claims, in



94



---

any Currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held by or owing to such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the
credit or the account of such Loan Party, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against and on account of the Loans and other Obligations of such Loan Party to such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description
of such Lender against such Loan Party, in any Currency, whether arising hereunder or, under any other Credit Document provided by such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as such Lender may elect, whether or not such Lender has made any
demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by such Lender against any Loan Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in
possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of such Loan Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against any Loan Party, or any such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession,
assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of set-off shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default. Each
Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application.

counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A copy of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other

(d) The guarantee contained in this ARTICLE X shall remain in full
force and effect until all the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this ARTICLE X (other than Contingent Indemnification Obligations) shall have been satisfied by payment in
full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Guaranteed Obligations.

Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder that has not paid its
proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantors right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 10.3. The provisions of this Section 10.2 shall in no respect limit the
obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Agreement Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Agreement Secured
Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

Section 10.3. No Subrogation.
Notwithstanding any payment made by any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Subsidiary Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be
entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party against the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of
payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Agreement Secured Parties by the Borrower on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnification
Obligations) are paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnification Obligations) shall not
have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Agreement Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall,
forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be
applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

Section 10.4. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain
obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Subsidiary Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Subsidiary Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the
Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such other Credit Agreement Secured Party and any of the

offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and this Agreement and the other
Credit Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may
be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold,

renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this ARTICLE X or acceptance of the guarantee
contained in this ARTICLE X; the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this
ARTICLE X; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Credit Agreement Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to

to or upon the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this ARTICLE X shall be construed as a continuing,
absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or
right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) that
may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of
the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor) that constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Guaranteed Obligations, or of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this
ARTICLE X, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party
may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee

reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any other Credit Agreement Secured Party upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or
any Subsidiary Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
