(provided that any such certificated equity interests with respect to subsidiaries of the Company will be required to be delivered on the Closing Date only to the extent received after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such
certificates)) after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, without undue burden or expense, the delivery of such Collateral or security interest therein (and creation or perfection of security interests therein), as applicable, shall
not constitute a condition precedent to the availability or effectiveness of the Facilities on the Closing Date but shall instead be required to be delivered or provided within 120 days after the Closing Date (or such longer period as the Term Loan

	3.	 Syndication 



Each Arranger intends and reserves the right to syndicate the Facilities to the Lenders in consultation with you; provided that the Arrangers will not
syndicate to (i) those persons identified by you by name in writing to us prior to the date hereof or (ii) competitors of the Borrower, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries that are identified by you by name in writing prior
to the date hereof (such persons, together with any person that is clearly identifiable as an affiliate of such person on the basis of its name, collectively, the “Disqualified Institutions”); provided, further, that the
Borrower, upon at least three (3) business days’ written notice to the Commitment Parties after the date hereof (or, after the Closing Date, the Agents), shall be permitted to supplement in writing the list of persons that are Disqualified


  
 3 













 
Institutions to the extent such supplemented person is or becomes a bona fide competitor of the Borrower, the Company or any of their respective subsidiaries; provided however, that such
supplementation shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any parties that have previously acquired an assignment or participation interest in the Facilities; and provided, further, that a competitor or an affiliate of a competitor shall not
include any bona fide debt fund or investment vehicle (other than a person which is excluded pursuant to clause (i) above). Unless otherwise agreed by you, other than in connection with any assignment to an Additional Committing Party upon
designation of such Additional Committing Party as an Initial Lender and the execution and delivery by such Additional Committing Party of customary joinder documentation, (x) the Commitment Parties shall not be relieved, released or novated
from their obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities until after the funding under the Facilities on the Closing Date
has occurred, (y) no assignment or novation shall become effective (as between you and any Commitment Party) with respect to all or any portion of any Commitment Party’s commitments in respect of the Facilities until the funding of the
Facilities has occurred and (z) unless you otherwise agree in writing, the Commitment Parties shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Facilities, including all rights with
respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the funding under the Facilities on the Closing Date has occurred. The Arrangers will lead the syndication, including determining, in consultation with you, the timing of
all offers to prospective Lenders, any title of agent or similar designations or roles awarded to any Lender and the acceptance of commitments, the amounts offered and the compensation provided to each Lender from the amounts to be paid to the
Arrangers pursuant to the terms of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and will in consultation with you determine the final commitment allocations. You agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Arrangers’
syndication efforts benefit from the existing lending and investment banking relationships of the Borrower and its subsidiaries. To facilitate an orderly and successful syndication of the Facilities, you agree that, until the earliest of
(a) the termination by the Arrangers of syndication of the Facilities, (b) the earlier of (A) 45 days following the Closing Date and (B) the termination of commitments with respect to the Facilities without the occurrence of the
Closing Date and (c) the “Successful Syndication” of the Facilities (as defined in the Fee Letter), you will ensure (or with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries, using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure) there will
be no competing issues, offerings, placements or arrangements of any debt facility or any debt security of the Company or the Borrower or any of their respective subsidiaries, including any renewal or refinancing of any existing debt facility or
debt security, being issued, offered, placed or arranged without the consent of the Arrangers, if such issuance, offering, placement or arrangement would materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities (it being understood that
(i) the Facilities, and (ii) (x) as to the Company and its subsidiaries, indebtedness permitted under the Acquisition Agreement to be incurred or remain outstanding prior to the Closing Date, and indebtedness permitted to remain
outstanding on and after the Closing Date under the Acquisition Agreement, working capital indebtedness, intercompany indebtedness, purchase money and equipment financings and other indebtedness that has otherwise been consented to by the Arranger
and (y) as to the Borrower and its subsidiaries, borrowings under its existing revolving credit facilities, deferred purchase price obligations, ordinary course working capital facilities for foreign subsidiaries, ordinary course capital lease
and purchase money and equipment financings will not be deemed to materially impair the primary syndication of the Facilities). 
 You agree to cooperate
with, and provide customary information reasonably required by, the Arrangers in connection with all syndication efforts, including: (i) your assistance in preparing as soon as practicable after the date of this Commitment Letter, a customary
information memorandum and other customary presentation materials (collectively, “Confidential Information Memoranda”) regarding the business, operations and financial projections of the Borrower including without limitation the
delivery of all customary information relating to the Transactions prepared by or on behalf of the Borrower; (ii) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from Moody’s Investor Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and
Standard 

  
 4 













 
& Poor’s Ratings Services, a Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC business (“S&P”), prior to the launch of the general syndication, a corporate
family rating, a corporate credit rating and a credit rating for each of the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility; (iii) arranging for direct communications with prospective Lenders in connection with the syndication of the
Facilities (including without limitation direct contact between appropriate senior management, representatives and advisors of the Borrower and participation of such persons in such meetings); and (iv) hosting (including any preparations with
respect thereto) with the Arrangers at places and times (which may be virtual to the extent circumstance so requires) reasonably requested by the Arrangers, one or more meetings with prospective Lenders. You will be solely responsible for the
contents of the Confidential Information Memoranda and all other information, documentation or other materials delivered to us in connection therewith and you acknowledge that we will be using and relying upon such information without independent
verification thereof as provided in Section 4 below. Subject to your consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and compliance with applicable laws, you agree that, after the Closing Date, each Arranger has the
right to place advertisements in financial and other newspapers at its own expense describing its services to you and the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter
agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, your obligations to assist in syndication efforts as provided herein (including compliance with any of the provisions set forth in this paragraph), shall not
constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. 
 You understand that (i) the Lead Arrangers
will make available an information package and presentation to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the information package and presentation on DebtDomain, SyndTrak, IntraLinks or another similar electronic system and (ii) certain
prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive MNPI (as defined below). At an Arranger’s request, you agree to assist in the preparation of an additional version of the
Confidential Information Memoranda that does not contain material non-public information (as reasonably determined by you) concerning you, your or subsidiaries or affiliates or your or its respective
securities (collectively, “MNPI”) which is suitable to make available to Public Lenders. You acknowledge and agree that the following documents may be distributed to Public Lenders (unless you or your counsel promptly notify us
(including by email) otherwise and provided that you and your counsel have been given a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comply with applicable securities law disclosure obligations): (a) drafts and final versions of the
Facilities Documentation; (b) administrative materials prepared by any Arranger for prospective Lenders (including without limitation a lender meeting invitation, allocations and funding and closing memoranda and the list of Disqualified
Institutions); and (c) summaries of terms and notification of changes in the terms and conditions of the Facilities. Before distribution of any Confidential Information Memoranda in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (i) to
prospective Lenders that are not Public Lenders, you will provide us with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of such materials and (ii) to prospective Public Lenders, you will provide us with a customary letter authorizing the
dissemination of information that does not contain MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to Public Lenders and confirming the absence of MNPI therein. The Confidential Information Memoranda provided to Lenders and prospective
Lenders will be accompanied by a disclaimer by such recipients exculpating us with respect to any use thereof and of any related materials by the recipients thereof. In addition, at an Arranger’s request, you will identify Public Information
Materials by marking the same as “PUBLIC” and by doing so you shall be deemed to have authorized the Commitment Parties and the proposed Lenders to treat such Public Information Materials as not containing any MNPI. 

It is agreed that the completion of the successful syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Facilities will not be a condition to the
Commitment Parties’ commitments hereunder.

	4.	 Information 



You represent and warrant that (i) all written information (other than projections, forward looking information and information of a general economic or
industry specific nature) that has been or will be made available to any Arranger, any Commitment Party, the Lenders or any of their respective affiliates by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with the Transactions is and will be, when
furnished and taken as a whole, true and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (after giving effect to all supplements thereto) and (ii) the projections and other forward looking information that have
been or will be made available to any Arranger, any Commitment Party, the Lenders or any of their respective affiliates by or on behalf of the Borrower have been and will be prepared in good faith, and that information with respect to you will be

available to such Arranger, such Commitment Party, the Lenders and their respective affiliates; it being understood that such projections and forward-looking statements are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, such projections and
forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such information may differ significantly from the projected results, and that no assurance can
be given that the projected results will be realized. You agree that if at any time prior to the later of (x) the Closing Date and (y) the earlier of (i) 45 days following the Closing Date and (ii) the “Successful
Syndication” (as defined in the Fee Letter) of the Facilities you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if made at such time, then you will promptly supplement, or
cause to be supplemented, the information and projections so that such representations will be correct in all material respects in light of the circumstances in which statements are made. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter, none of the making of the foregoing representations, any supplements thereto, or the accuracy of any such representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall constitute a condition precedent to the
availability of the commitments and obligations of the Initial Lenders hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date. You understand that in providing our services pursuant to this Commitment Letter we may use and rely on the
information and projections without independent verification thereof.

successors, assigns, heirs and personal representatives of you and the Indemnified Persons and shall be superseded in each case by the applicable provisions to the extent covered in the definitive financing documentation upon execution thereof and
thereafter shall have no further force and effect.

therewith and all other appropriate pro forma adjustments (including adjustments for cost-savings and synergies subject to parameters to be agreed)), plus (b) voluntary prepayments of Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in
Exhibit B), Incremental Facilities and/or Incremental Equivalent Debt (to the extent incurred under clause (a) above) that is secured on a pari passu basis with the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans (but with respect to the

effect to any Incremental Facilities (or portion of any Incremental Facilities) established or incurred (or to be established or incurred contemporaneously therewith) under clause (a) and/or clause (b), and after such maximum
amount



  
 A-4 














			
		 	under clause (c) has been determined, the amount of Incremental Facilities (or portion of Incremental Facilities) established or incurred (or to be established or incurred contemporaneously therewith) under clause
(a) and/or clause (b) shall be determined, and (2) upon delivery of the applicable financial statements pursuant to the Term Documentation and Revolving Credit Documentation following the initial incurrence of any Incremental
Facilities under clauses (a) or (b) above, if such Incremental Facilities could, based on any such financial statements, have been incurred under clause (c) of this definition, then such Incremental Facilities shall automatically be
reclassified as incurred under clause (c) above); provided that (i) no Term Lender or Revolving Credit Lender (as defined in Exhibit B) will be required to participate in any such Incremental Facility, (ii) no payment or
bankruptcy event of default exists or would exist after giving effect thereto (provided, however, that in the case of any Incremental Facility to fund (a) any Permitted Acquisition (as defined below) or other permitted acquisition whose

such redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment (each, a “Limited Condition Transaction”), the foregoing requirement shall be replaced by the requirement that no event of default shall have occurred
and be continuing immediately prior to signing of the applicable purchase or acquisition agreement, and immediately after giving effect to such signing, (iii) the representations and warranties in the Term Documentation and the Revolving Credit
Documentation, as applicable, shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if qualified by materiality) immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (provided that
any bring-down of representations and warranties shall be limited in the case of any Limited Condition Transaction to customary “specified representations”), (iv) with respect to any Incremental Term Facility, the maturity date and
weighted average life to maturity of such Incremental Term Facility shall be no earlier than the maturity date and weighted average life to maturity, respectively, of the Term Loan Facility, provided, that this clause (iv) shall
not apply to any Incremental Term Facility in an aggregate principal amount, taken together with any Incremental Equivalent Debt, Refinancing Indebtedness and permitted refinancings of Incremental Facilities and Incremental Equivalent Debt and any
of the foregoing, in an aggregate amount not to exceed 100% of the EBITDA Grower Amount (the “Inside Maturity Basket”), (v) no Incremental Facility shall be guaranteed by persons other than the Guarantors with respect to the
corresponding Term Loans or secured by assets not constituting Collateral, (vi) with respect to any Incremental Revolving Increase or any Incremental Revolving


  
 A-5 














			
		
		 	Facility, (A) the maturity date of such Incremental Revolving Increase or Incremental Revolving Facility shall be the same as the maturity date of the applicable Revolving Credit Facility, (B) such Incremental Revolving
Increase or Incremental Revolving Facility shall require no scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility and (C) with respect to any Incremental Revolving Facility, there
shall be included customary pro rata borrowing and repayment mechanics with respect to the Revolving Facility and any then existing Refinancing Revolving Facility and (D) (x) solely with respect to any Incremental Revolving Increase, such
Incremental Revolving Increase shall be on the same terms and pursuant to the same documentation applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility and (y) solely with respect to any Incremental Revolving Facility, such Incremental Revolving Facility
shall otherwise be on substantially the same terms as those applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility (except for (i) pricing and fees, (ii) terms that are applicable only after the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility or
(ii) such terms as may be included subject solely as to administrative matters and subject to the Revolving Credit Agent’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)); and (vii) (subject to clause
(iv) above) the interest rates and amortization schedule applicable to any Incremental Term Facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder on terms and pursuant to documentation to be mutually agreed; provided,
further, that if the Applicable Margins (or similar measure of interest margin) applicable to any Incremental Term Facility in like currency with the Term Loans incurred on or prior to the date that is 6 months following the Closing Date is
more than 0.75% per annum greater than the Applicable Margins for any Term Loans, then the Applicable Margins for such Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Margins (or similar measure of interest margin) for
the Incremental Term Facility are equal to the Applicable Margins for the Term Loans, plus 0.75% per annum (the “MFN Provision”) (provided, that the MFN Provision shall not apply (A) to Incremental Term Facilities in an
aggregate amount not to exceed 100% of the EBITDA Grower Amount and (B) to any Incremental Term Facility that (x) is incurred to finance a Permitted Acquisition or other permitted Investment, (y) has an initial maturity of one year or
less and is incurred as a customary bridge facility, so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which such customary bridge facility is to be converted or exchanged satisfies the requirements of this section or (z) has a final maturity of more
than one year after the maturity date with respect to the Term Loans (collectively, the “MFN Exceptions”)); provided, further, that, in determining the interest rate margins applicable to the Incremental Term Facility
and the Term Loans, (x) arrangement, commitment or structuring fees


  
 A-6 














			
		
		 	and other similar fees not paid or payable generally to lenders but are payable to any lead arranger of such Incremental Term Facility, and any similar fees not paid or payable generally to lenders but are payable to the Term
Arrangers (or their affiliates) in connection with the Term Loans shall be excluded, (y) OID and upfront fees paid to the lenders thereunder shall be included (with OID and upfront fees being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life
to maturity or, if shorter, the actual weighted average life to maturity), and (z) if the applicable Incremental Term Facility includes an interest rate floor greater than the applicable interest rate floor under the existing Term Loan
Facility, such differential between interest rate floors shall be equated to an increase in the applicable interest rate margin with respect to such Incremental Term Facility for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest rate
margin under the existing Term Loan Facility shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the existing Term Loan Facility would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case
the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the existing Term Loan Facility shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors; provided, further, that, with respect to any
Incremental Term Facility, to the extent such terms are not consistent with the Term Loan Facility (except to the extent permitted by clauses (iv) and (vii) of this paragraph), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Term Loan Agent and
any Incremental Term Facility shall, for purposes of prepayments, be treated in any event no more favorably than the Term Loan Facility and shall share ratably or less than ratably in any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan Facility.
		
		 	“First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” means the ratio of (a) Consolidated Secured Debt (i.e., consolidated total debt of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries that is secured by a lien on any assets of the
Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries) (net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries) as of such date that does not rank junior in priority to the Liens on the Collateral securing the
obligations under the Facilities to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period.
		
		 	“Secured Net Leverage Ratio” means the ratio of (a) Consolidated Secured Debt (i.e., consolidated total debt of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries that is secured by a lien on any assets of the
Borrower or any of its restricted subsidiaries provided that such debt is not expressly subordinated pursuant to a written agreement in right of payment to the Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans) (net of unrestricted cash and cash
equivalents of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries) as of such date to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period.

		 	“Total Leverage Ratio” means the ratio of (a) Consolidated Debt (i.e., consolidated total debt of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries) (net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and
its restricted subsidiaries) as of such date to (b) Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period.
		
		 	The Term Documentation and the Revolving Credit Documentation shall permit the Borrower to utilize availability under the Incremental Facility to issue (at the option of the Borrower) one or more additional series of senior
unsecured notes or loans, or senior secured notes or loans that will be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Facilities, senior subordinated (including unsecured) notes or loans, or subordinated (including
unsecured) notes or loans (any such notes or loans (“Incremental Equivalent Debt”); provided, that such Incremental Equivalent Debt (i) shall not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average
life than, the Term Loan Facility or Incremental Facility, in either case, that are being refinanced; provided, that this clause (i) shall not apply to (x) any Incremental Equivalent Debt in an aggregate principal amount, taken
together with any Incremental Facility, Refinancing Indebtedness and permitted refinancings of Incremental Facilities and Incremental Equivalent Debt and any of the foregoing, in each case, incurred in reliance on the Inside Maturity Basket or
(y) the extent such Indebtedness constitutes a customary bridge facility, so long as the long-term Indebtedness into which such customary bridge facility is to be converted or exchanged satisfies the requirements of this clause (i), (ii) shall
not be guaranteed by persons other than the Guarantors with respect to the Facilities or secured by assets not constituting Collateral, (iii) shall have covenants and defaults (excluding pricing and optional prepayment or redemption terms)
which are, taken as a whole, not materially more favorable to the investors providing such Incremental Equivalent Debt than, those applicable to the Facilities (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest
final maturity date of any then outstanding Facilities existing at the time of such refinancing), unless (x) the Term Lenders and/or Revolving Credit Lenders are afforded the benefits of substantially similar provisions or (y) such
provisions shall be customary for similar debt securities or loans in light of then-prevailing market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence (as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith) (it being understood
that with respect to this clause (y) that (A) no Incremental Equivalent Debt in the form of term loans or notes shall include any financial maintenance covenants, but that customary cross-acceleration provisions may be included and
(B) any negative covenants with respect to indebtedness, investments, liens or restricted payments shall be incurrence-based), (iv) if in the form of term loans secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Facilities, shall
be

mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan Facility, and (vi) if applicable, is subject to customary subordination or intercreditor agreements, as applicable, reasonably acceptable to the Term Loan Agent are entered into for any such secured,
subordinated or senior subordinated Incremental Equivalent Debt.
		
	C. Refinancing Facilities:	 	The Term Documentation and the Revolving Credit Documentation shall permit the Borrower to refinance (including by extending the maturity) the then outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, from time to time,
in whole or in part, with (x) one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”), under the Term Documentation with the consent of the Borrower and the institutions providing such Refinancing Term Facility,
(y) one or more new revolving credit facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Facility”), under the Revolving Credit Documentation with the consent of the Borrower and the institutions providing such Refinancing Revolving
Facility or (z) with one or more additional series of senior unsecured notes or loans, or senior secured notes or loans that will be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Facilities, senior subordinated
(including unsecured) notes or loans, or subordinated (including unsecured) notes or loans (any such notes or loans, the “Refinancing Notes”, and, together with the Refinancing Term Facilities and the Refinancing Revolving
Facilities, the “Refinancing Indebtedness”); provided that (i) any such Refinancing Indebtedness does not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, the Term Loan Facility,
Incremental Facility or Revolving Credit Facility, in each case, that are being refinanced (and in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Facility, there shall be no mandatory prepayments or commitment reductions prior to the maturity of the
Revolving Credit Facility), provided, that this clause (i) shall not apply to any Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Notes in an aggregate principal amount, taken together with any Incremental Facility, Incremental Equivalent Debt
and permitted refinancings of Incremental Facilities and Incremental Equivalent Debt and any of the foregoing, in each case, incurred in reliance on the Inside Maturity Basket, (ii) the amount of any such Refinancing Indebtedness does not
exceed the amount of indebtedness being refinanced (plus any premium, accrued interest or fees and expenses in respect of the refinancing thereof), plus additional amounts to the extent the Borrower has available debt capacity under
other baskets or carve-outs, (iii) any such Refinancing Indebtedness is not guaranteed by any persons other than the Guarantors under the applicable Facility (or such other arrangements satisfactory to the Term Loan Agent


  
 A-9 














			
		 	or the Revolving Credit Agent, as applicable), (iv) if secured, any such Refinancing Indebtedness shall only be secured by the Collateral securing the Facilities on a pari passu or junior basis with such Facility
pursuant to the Term Documentation or the Revolving Credit Documentation, as applicable, and shall not be secured by any assets not securing the obligations under such Facility, (v) customary subordination or intercreditor agreements, as
applicable, reasonably acceptable to the Term Loan Agent and the Revolving Credit Agent, as applicable, are entered into for any such secured, subordinated or senior subordinated Refinancing Indebtedness, (vi) with respect to any Refinancing
Revolving Facility, there shall be included customary pro rata borrowing and repayment mechanics with respect to the Revolving Facility and any then existing Incremental Revolving Facility and (vii) the covenants and events of default and the
other terms and conditions of such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes (excluding pricing and optional prepayment or redemption terms) are, taken as a whole, not materially more favorable to the investors
providing such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes, as applicable, than, those applicable to the applicable Facility (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest
final maturity date of any then outstanding Term Loan Facility existing at the time of such refinancing) unless (x) the Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, are afforded the benefits of substantially similar provisions or
(y) such provisions shall be customary for similar debt securities or loans in light of then-prevailing market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence (as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith) (it being
understood that with respect to this clause (y) that (A) no Refinancing Indebtedness in the form of term loans or notes shall include any financial maintenance covenants, but that customary cross-acceleration provisions may be included and
(B) any negative covenants with respect to indebtedness, investments, liens or restricted payments shall be incurrence-based).
	
	3. CERTAIN PAYMENT PROVISIONS
		
	Interest Rate Options:	 	The Borrower may elect that the Term Loan Facility comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the ABR plus the Applicable Margin or (ii) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, plus
the Applicable Margin.
		
		 	As used herein:
		
		 	“ABR” means the highest of (i) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “Prime Rate” in the U.S. or, if The Wall Street Journal ceases to quote such rate, the highest per
annum interest rate published by the Federal Reserve Board in


  
 A-10 














			
		 	Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (Selected Interest Rate) as the “bank prime loan” rate or, if such rate is no longer quoted therein, any similar rate quote therein (as determined by the Term Loan Agent) or
similar release by the Federal Reserve Board (as determined by the Term Loan Agent) (the “Prime Rate”), (ii) the federal funds effective rate from time to time (which rate, if negative, shall be deemed to be 0.00%) plus 0.50%
and (iii) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%.
		
		 	“ABR Loans” means Loans bearing interest based upon the ABR.
		
		 	“Adjusted Eurodollar Rate” means, for any interest period, the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the applicable Eurodollar Rate for such interest period by (ii) 1.00% minus the applicable reserve percentage set
forth in the Term Documentation.
		
		 	“Applicable Margin” means 1.00%, in the case of ABR Loans and (ii) 2.00%, in the case of Eurodollar Loans.
		
		 	“Eurodollar Loans” means Loans bearing interest based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate.
		
		 	“Eurodollar Rate” means the rate for eurodollar deposits in dollars for a period equal to one, three or six months or any longer period agreed to by all relevant lenders (as selected by the Borrower) appearing on
the page of the Reuters Screen which displays an average ICE Benchmark Administration Interest Settlement Rate or any successor substitute page (such page currently being LIBOR01 page) (which rate, if negative, shall be deemed to be 0.00%); provided
however that notwithstanding the rate calculated in accordance with the foregoing, at no time shall the Eurodollar Rate be deemed to be less than 0.00% per annum. Customary ARRC “hard wired” LIBOR replacement provisions will be included in
the Term Documentation.
		
	Interest Payment Dates:	 	In the case of ABR Loans, quarterly in arrears.
		
		 	In the case of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of each relevant interest period and, in the case of any interest period longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such interest
period.
		
	Default Rate:	 	At any time when any Loan Party is in default in the payment of any amount under the Term Loan Facility, after giving effect to any applicable grace period, such overdue amounts shall bear interest at 2.00% per annum above
the rate otherwise applicable thereto, and with respect to any overdue amount (including overdue interest) for which there is no applicable rate, 2.00% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to Term Loans maintained as
ABR Loans from time to time.


  
 A-11 














			
	Rate and Fee Basis:	  	All per annum rates shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days (or 365/366 days, in the case of ABR Loans) for actual days elapsed.
		
	Optional Prepayments:	  	The Term Loans may be prepaid, in whole or in part without premium or penalty (other than as set forth under “Soft-Call Premium” below), in minimum amounts set forth in the Term Documentation, at the option of the Borrower
at any time upon one business day’s (or, in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans, three business days’) prior notice, subject to reimbursement of the Term Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar
Loans prior to the last day of the relevant interest period. Optional prepayments of the Term Loans, together with accrued interest, if any, shall be applied as directed by the Borrower (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity
thereof).
		
	Soft-Call Premium:	  	In the event that all or any portion of the Term Loan Facility is repriced downward, effectively refinanced through any amendment of the Term Loan Facility or refinanced with the proceeds of other syndicated bank debt financing, in
each case for the primary purpose of lowering the yield, and resulting in a lower yield, on such amended Term Loan Facility or refinancing indebtedness, as applicable, than that existing on the applicable portion of the Term Loan Facility prior to
such amendment or refinancing, on or prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, such repricings, effective refinancings or refinancings will be made with the payment of a 1.00% premium (the “Soft Call Premium”) on
the amount repriced, effectively refinanced or refinanced (including with respect to the loans and commitments of any lenders replaced in connection with any amendment related thereto); provided that the foregoing payment shall not apply with
respect to any event described above that is not consummated for the primary purpose of lowering such yield on such amended Term Loan Facility than that existing on the applicable portion of the Term Loan Facility prior to such amendment or
refinancing, including, without limitation, in the context of a transaction involving a change of control or in connection with a Transformative Acquisition (as defined below).
		
		  	“Transformative Acquisition” shall mean any acquisition by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that (i) is not permitted by the terms of the Term Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of
such acquisition or (ii) if permitted by the terms of the Term Documentation immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction, such Term Documentation would not provide the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries


  
 A-12 














			
		  	with adequate flexibility under the Term Documentation for the continuation and/or expansion of their combined operations following such consummation, as determined by the Borrower acting in good faith, in consultation with the Term
Loan Agent.
		
	Mandatory Prepayments:	  	Mandatory repayments of the Term Loans shall be required from:
		
		  	 (a)   with respect to any non-ordinary
course asset sale or other disposition of assets with net proceeds in excess of an amount to be agreed in any transaction or series of related transactions, 100% of the net cash proceeds (to be defined in the Term Documentation, but to exclude,
among other things, the amount of any required tax payments that the Loan Parties shall be required to make as a result of such sale or disposition) from any non-ordinary course sale or other disposition of
assets (including as a result of casualty or condemnation) by the Loan Parties and their restricted subsidiaries that are in excess of 15% of EBITDA Grower Amount (the “Excess Proceeds Threshold”), subject to (i) the right of
the Loan Parties to reinvest such proceeds if such proceeds are reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) within 455 days and, if so committed to reinvestment, reinvested within 180 days after such 455-day
period, (ii) the right of the Loan Parties to use such proceeds prepay other indebtedness of the Loan Parties consistent with the Documentation Principles and otherwise to be agreed, (iii) step-downs consistent with the Documentation
Principles and otherwise to be agreed (the “Asset Sale Step-Downs”), and (iv) other exceptions to be agreed, it being understood and agreed that any such repayments pursuant to this clause (a) shall only be required when
the aggregate amount of excess net cash proceeds from such non-ordinary course asset sales or other disposition of assets, after giving effect to any applicable reinvestment rights, exceeds the Excess Proceeds
Threshold;

		
		  	 (b)   100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrences of debt by the
Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries (other than indebtedness permitted by the Term Documentation (other than Refinancing Indebtedness)); and

		
		  	 (c)   50% (with step-downs to 25% and 0%, each based upon achievement of First
Lien Net Leverage Ratios to be agreed) of annual Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in the Term Documentation) (commencing with Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 (solely to the extent the Closing Date occurs prior
to



  
 A-13 














			
		 	 December 31, 2021, and to the extent the Closing Date occurs on or after December 31, 2021, commencing with
Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022), provided that solely for the first fiscal year in which Excess Cash Flow is tested, Excess Cash Flow shall equal the annual Excess Cash Flow for such year multiplied by the
number of days from the Closing Date to December 31 of such fiscal year divided by 360); provided that the amount of such any Excess Cash Flow prepayment shall be subject to
dollar-for-dollar reductions to be set forth in the Term Documentation, including, without limitation, that any voluntary prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit
Loans (defined below) to the extent commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility (defined below) are permanently reduced by the amount of such prepayments, other than payments or reductions funded with the proceeds of equity or long-term
indebtedness, during such fiscal year, or after such fiscal year-end and prior to the time such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, shall be credited against Excess Cash Flow prepayment obligations on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such fiscal year and, to the extent such prepayments exceed Excess Cash Flow in such fiscal year, shall be carried forward to future fiscal years;
provided that Excess Cash Flow prepayments shall only be required if, and only to the extent, that after giving effect to the applicable percentage of Excess Cash Flow, the amount of the Excess Cash Flow payment that would be required is
greater than 15% of the EBITDA Grower Amount (the “ECF Threshold”).

		
		 	Mandatory prepayments shall be applied, without premium or penalty (other than any Soft-Call Premium payable in connection with any Refinancing Indebtedness in the case of clause (b) above), subject to reimbursement of
the Term Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period, as directed by the Borrower.
		
		 	Prepayments from foreign subsidiaries’ Excess Cash Flow and asset sale proceeds (to the extent otherwise required) shall be limited under the definitive documentation to the extent (x) the repatriation of funds to fund
such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws or (y) repatriation of funds to fund such prepayment would result in material adverse tax consequences, as reasonably determined by the
Borrower.


  
 A-14 














			
		
		 	All mandatory prepayments under clauses (a) and (c) above are subject to permissibility under (a) local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary
and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (b) organizational document restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership). The non-application of any such mandatory
prepayment amounts as a result of the foregoing provisions will not constitute a default or an event of default and such amounts shall be available for working capital purposes of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries. The Borrower will use
commercially reasonable efforts for to overcome or eliminate any such restriction and/or minimize any such costs of prepayment.
		
		 	Any Term Lender may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment under clauses (a) and (c) above (each a “Declining Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender
(“Rejected Amounts”) may be retained by the Borrower and used by the Borrower in any manner not prohibited by the Term Documentation and any such retained amounts will not thereafter be counted as excess cash flow or net cash
proceeds (as described above) in any subsequent measurement period.
		
	4. COLLATERAL	 	
		
	Collateral:	 	Subject to the Certain Funds Provision, the obligations of the Borrower and each Guarantor in respect of the Borrower Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first-priority security interest (subject to permitted liens) in all
or substantially all of the Loan Parties’ tangible and intangible personal property assets, including, without limitation, registered intellectual property, intercompany notes, all of the capital stock of the Borrower’s direct and indirect
restricted subsidiaries (limited to (i) the assets of each Guarantor and (ii) 65% of the voting capital stock, and 100% of the non-voting capital stock, of any first-tier Foreign Subsidiary), existing and
future cash, cash equivalents, bank accounts (with exceptions to be agreed), accounts receivable, other receivables, chattel paper, inventory, and contract rights, documents, general intangibles and insurance, instruments and books and records
relating thereto and all proceeds of the foregoing (the “Collateral”). The Collateral shall be subject to exceptions and qualifications consistent with the Existing Term Loan Documents (as defined below).
		
		 	None of the Collateral shall be subject to any other pledges, security interests or mortgages, except junior liens on Collateral and other liens on other Collateral in each case as permitted under the lien covenant. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no foreign law governed documents, perfection actions or foreign law opinions shall be required in connection with the Term Documentation.


  
 A-15 














			
	5. CONDITIONS

 A-16 














			
		 	 a.   With respect to determinations of Consolidated EBITDA, (i) with
respect to adjustments to Consolidated EBITDA and other pro forma adjustments in each case in the nature of cost-savings, synergies, expense reductions, operating improvements and similar items, (x) reduce the look-forward period such that any
such adjustments must be reasonably expected to be realized within 24 months following the applicable adjustment event and/or (y) add an aggregate cap of 30% of Consolidated EBITDA for the applicable test period, and (ii) remove the

		 	 b.  remove Section 7.10 (covenant suspension) and the EBITDA Grower Amounts (as
defined therein);

		
		 	 c.   with respect to the incurrence of ratio and acquisition indebtedness (and

case of non-Loan Parties, subject to an aggregate cap to be agreed;

		
		 	 d.  remove clause (24) from the definition of Permitted Liens (it being
understood that debt may be secured in the Collateral in accordance with the debt incurrence tests described herein);

		
		 	 e.   require that proceeds from the baskets permitting unlimited sale and

otherwise to be agreed, the Borrower is permitted to designate any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary as an “unrestricted subsidiary” and subsequently re-designate any such
unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary; provided that (i) after giving effect to any such designation or re-designation, no payment or bankruptcy event of default shall exist (including
after the reclassification of investments in, debt of, and liens on the assets of, the applicable subsidiary), (ii) the fair market value of such subsidiary at the time it is designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary” shall be treated as
an investment in an unrestricted subsidiary by the Borrower at such time and (iii) each subsidiary designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary” under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be designated as an unrestricted subsidiary under
the Term Loan Facility, and each subsidiary designated as a “restricted subsidiary” under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be designated as a restricted subsidiary under the Term Loan Facility. The designation of any unrestricted
subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any indebtedness or liens of such subsidiary existing at such time and an investment in such subsidiary. Unrestricted subsidiaries will not be
subject to the representations and warranties, the affirmative or negative covenant or event of default provisions of Term Documentation, and the results of operations and indebtedness of unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for
purposes of determining compliance (to the extent applicable) with the negative covenants and financial ratios contained in the Term Documentation.

Closing Date until the date that is 30 days after the Closing Date (the “Clean-Up Period”), any breach of a representation or warranty (other than a Specified Representation) arising solely by
reason of any matter or circumstance relating to the Acquired Business and its subsidiaries will be deemed not to be a breach of a representation or warranty if, and for so long as, the circumstances giving rise to the relevant breach of
representation or warranty: (a) are capable of being remedied within the Clean-Up Period and the Company and its subsidiaries are taking appropriate steps to remedy such breach, (b) do not have and
would not be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and (c) were not procured by or approved by the Company or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the Closing Date.

the Revolving Credit Facility to be immediately due and payable and such declaration has not been rescinded); bankruptcy events of the Borrower or any restricted subsidiary that is not an immaterial subsidiary (with a customary grace period for
involuntary events); certain ERISA events; material unsatisfied judgments; actual or asserted invalidity of any material provision in a guarantee, security document or material subordination provisions or

Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (the Borrower’s consent shall be deemed given if it fails to respond within ten business days); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (i) after the
occurrence and during the continuance of a payment or bankruptcy event of default or (ii) for assignments of loans to any existing Term Lender or an affiliate or related fund of an existing Term Lender. All assignments will require the consent
of the Term Loan Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such assignment is an assignment of the Term Loans to another Term Lender, an affiliate of a Term Lender or an approved fund. Each assignment will be in a minimum amount of
$1.0 million and in integral multiples to be agreed or, in each case, if less, all of such Term Lender’s remaining loans and commitments of the applicable class. Natural persons and the Borrower, its subsidiaries and affiliates may not be
assignees. The loan documentation shall contain customary net short provisions.
		
		  	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Term Loan Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring assignments or participations for compliance with the list of Disqualified Institutions, if any.
		
		  	The Term Lenders are permitted to sell participations in Term Loans and commitments without notice or restriction (except to Disqualified Institutions, if the list of Disqualified Institutions has been provided to all Term Lenders),
other than as set forth in the next sentence, and in accordance with applicable law. Voting rights of participants shall be limited to matters in respect


  
 A-21 














			
		 	of (a) increases in commitments participated to such participants, (b) reductions of principal, interest or fees, (c) extensions of final maturity and (d) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the
Guarantees or all or substantially all of the Collateral.
		
		 	The Borrower may repurchase Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis through a Dutch auction process (or other procedures as set forth in the Term Documentation by the Borrower and the Term Loan
Agent) offered to all Term Lenders on customary terms; provided that (i) any Term Loans so repurchased shall be immediately cancelled upon repurchase, (ii) no event of default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) no
proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to fund such purchase.
		
		 	Amendments and waivers with respect to the Term Documentation shall require the approval of Term Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount Loans and commitments under the Term Loan Facility (the “Required
Term Lenders”), except that (a) in addition to the consent of the Required Term Lenders, the consent of each Term Lender directly affected thereby shall be required with respect to (i) reductions in the amount or extensions of the
scheduled date of any amortization or final maturity of any Loan, (ii) reductions in the rate of interest or any fee or extensions of any due date thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt, other than default rate interest) and
(iii) increases in the amount or extensions of the expiry date of any Term Lender’s commitment, (b) the consent of 100% of the Term Lenders shall be required with respect to (i) reductions of any of the voting percentages and
modifications of any pro rata sharing and payment and waterfall provisions, (ii) releases of all or substantially all the Collateral (other than in connection with any sale of Collateral permitted by the Term Documentation), and

respect to any amendment or modification that affects its rights or duties as administrative agent. Any amendment or waiver that by its terms affects only the rights or duties of Term Lenders holding loans or commitments of a particular class (but
not the Term Lenders holding loans or commitments of any other class) will require only the requisite percentage in interest of the affected class of Term Lenders that would be required to consent thereto if such class of Term Lenders were the only

Term Lenders directly affected thereby so long as the Required Term Lenders shall have consented thereto.


  
 A-22 














			
		  	In addition, if the Term Loan Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity, defect, inconsistency or omission of a technical nature in the Term Documentation, then the Term Loan Agent
and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision without any further action or consent of any other party.
		
		  	The Term Documentation will permit guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents to be, together with the credit agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Term Loan Agent at the request of the Borrower

consistent with the credit agreement and the other Term Documentation.
		
	Expenses and Indemnification:	  	The Borrowers shall pay (a) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses of the Term Loan Agent and the Term Arrangers in

harmless from and against all reasonable and documented costs, reasonable and documented expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) and liabilities of any such indemnified person arising out
of or relating to any claim or any litigation or other proceedings (regardless of whether any such indemnified person is a party thereto or whether such claim, litigation, or other proceeding is brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any of
their respective affiliates, creditors or shareholders) that relate to the Term Documentation, except to the extent (i) that it is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the indemnified party or (y) a material breach of obligations under the Term Documentation by such
indemnified party, (ii) arising

		  	out of any dispute solely among the indemnified parties (not arising as a result of any act or omission by the Borrowers or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) other than any claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation,

 B-1 














			
		
	Availability and Maturity:	  	The Revolving Credit Facility shall be available on a revolving basis during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Revolving Credit Termination
Date”). The revolving commitments and the Revolving Credit Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that the amount of the Revolving Credit Loans to be drawn on the Closing
Date shall not exceed the sum of (i) $100,000,000 plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any loans outstanding and face amount of any letters of credit issued under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement or the Company Credit Agreement on
the Closing Date, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus (iii) the amount of any fees payable pursuant to the Fee Letter under the heading “Market Flex” that are structured as original issue discount, if any. The revolving
commitments and the Revolving Credit Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will mature on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.
		
	Letters of Credit:	  	Up to 50.0 million of the Revolving Credit Facility shall be available for the issuance of letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Revolving Credit Borrowers and their subsidiaries by
the Revolving Credit Agent and other consenting Revolving Credit Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Credit Borrowers and the Revolving Credit Agent (in such capacity, each an “Issuing

of issuance unless consented to by the Issuing Lender and (b) three business days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may
provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods pursuant to procedures as set forth in the Revolving Credit Documentation with the applicable Issuing Lender (which shall in no event extend
beyond the date referred to in clause (b) above). Letters of Credit shall be issued in U.S. Dollars, Euros, sterling and other currencies to be agreed. Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit, each
Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation in such Letter of Credit on a pro rata basis. Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Revolving Credit Borrowers (whether with their own funds or with
the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans) on the same day if notice of such drawing is received by MKS from the relevant Issuing Lender before 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), and otherwise on the next business day. To the extent that the Revolving
Credit Borrowers do not


  
 B-2 














			
		
		  	so reimburse the Issuing Lender, the Revolving Credit Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to fund participations in the reimbursement obligations on a pro rata
basis.
		
	Use of Proceeds:	  	The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used by the Revolving Credit Borrowers to provide for ongoing working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions, investments and
restricted payments permitted under the Revolving Credit Documentation.
		
	 B. Incremental Facilities:
	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Incremental Facilities” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
		
	 C. Refinancing Facilities:
	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Refinancing Facilities” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
	
	 3.  CERTAIN PAYMENT PROVISIONS

		
	Interest Rate Options:	  	The Revolving Credit Borrowers may elect that the Revolving Credit Facility comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the ABR plus the Applicable Margin or (b) the Adjusted Eurodollar
Rate, plus the Applicable Margin; provided that Revolving Credit Loans denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars and Euros shall be subject to interest rate definitions and mechanics reasonably acceptable to the Revolving
Credit Agent (and, with respect to Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Euros, interest rate definitions consistent with those set forth in the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement); provided that Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Pounds
Sterling will incur interest based on SONIA.
		
		  	As used herein:
		
		  	“ABR” means the highest of (i) the rate of interest last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “Prime Rate” in the U.S. or, if The Wall Street Journal ceases to quote such rate, the highest per
annum interest rate published by the Federal Reserve Board in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (Selected Interest Rate) as the “bank prime loan” rate or, if such rate is no longer quoted therein, any similar rate quote
therein (as determined by the Revolving Credit Agent) or similar release by the Federal Reserve Board (as determined by the Revolving Credit Agent) (the “Prime Rate”), (ii) the federal funds effective rate from time to time (which
rate, if negative, shall be deemed to be 0.00%) plus 0.50% and (iii) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate applicable for an interest period of one month plus 1.00%.


  
 B-3 














							
		  	“ABR Loans” means Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest based upon the ABR.
		
		  	“Adjusted Eurodollar Rate” means, for any interest period, the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the applicable Eurodollar Rate for such interest period by (ii) 1.00% minus the applicable reserve
percentage set forth in the Revolving Credit Documentation.
		
		  	“Applicable Margin” means, initially, (i) 1.00%, in the case of ABR Loans and (ii) 2.00%, in the case of Eurodollar Loans. Beginning on the date of the first interest period occurring after the date on
which the Revolving Credit Borrowers deliver to the Revolving Credit Lenders financial statements for the first full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date, the applicable margin for the Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to adjustment based
on the grid set forth below:
				
	 	  	 First Lien Net

Leverage Ratio
	  	 Applicable Margin

for Adjusted
 LIBOR rate loans
	  	 Applicable Margin

for Adjusted ABR
 rate loans

		  	< 2.75 to 1.00	  	1.00%	  	0%
		  	 3 2.75 to 1.00 and

< 3.25 to. 100
	  	1.50%	  	0.50%
		  	3 3.25 to 1.00	  	2.00%	  	1.00%
		
		  	“Eurodollar Loans” means Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate.
		
		  	“Eurodollar Rate” means the rate for eurodollar deposits in dollars for a period equal to one, three or six months or any longer period agreed to by all relevant lenders (as selected by the Revolving
Credit Borrowers) appearing on the page of the Reuters Screen which displays an average ICE Benchmark Administration Interest Settlement Rate or any successor substitute page (such page currently being LIBOR01 page) (which rate, if negative, shall
be deemed to be 0.00%); provided however that notwithstanding the rate calculated in accordance with the foregoing, at no time shall the Eurodollar Rate be deemed to be less than 0.00% per annum. Customary ARRC “hard wired” LIBOR
replacement provisions will be included in the Revolving Credit Documentation.
		
	Interest Payment Dates:	  	In the case of ABR Loans, quarterly in arrears.
		
		  	In the case of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of each relevant interest period and, in the case of any interest period longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such
interest period.


  
 B-4 














							
		
	Commitment Fees:	  	The Revolving Credit Borrowers shall pay a commitment fee calculated at a rate per annum equal to, initially, (i) 0.375% (with any outstanding swing line loans deemed not to use the Revolving Credit Facility, solely for
the purpose of the determination of such fees). Beginning on the date of the first interest period occurring after the date on which the Revolving Credit Borrowers deliver to the Revolving Credit Lenders financial statements for the first full
fiscal quarter after the Closing Date, the commitment fee for the Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to adjustment based on the grid set forth below:
			
	 	  	 First Lien Net Leverage Ratio
	  	 Commitment Fee

		  	< 3.25 to 1.00	  	0.25%
		  	3 3.25 to 1.00	  	0.375%
		
		  	Letters of Credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility shall each be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility.
		
	Letter of Credit Fees:	  	The Revolving Credit Borrowers shall pay a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans, under the Revolving Credit Facility
on the face amount of each such letter of credit. Such fee shall be shared ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders, and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar quarter. A fronting fee in an amount equal to
0.125% on the face amount of each letter of credit shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar quarter to the Issuing Lender for its own account. In addition, customary administrative, issuance, amendment, payment
and negotiation charges shall be payable to the Issuing Lender for its own account.
		
	Default Rate:	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Default Rate” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
		
	Rate and Fee Basis:	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Rate and Fee Basis” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.

 Commitment
Reductions:

upon one business day’s (or, in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans, three business days’) prior notice, subject to reimbursement of the


  
 B-5 














			
		  	Revolving Credit Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans prior to the last day of the relevant interest period. The unutilized portion of any commitment under the Revolving Credit Facilities
may be reduced permanently or terminated by the Company at any time without penalty.
		
	Mandatory Prepayments:	  	If at any time the amounts outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility (including outstanding Letters of Credit) exceed the amount of commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility as in effect at such time, the Revolving
Credit Borrowers will be required to make a mandatory prepayment in an amount equal to such excess. Mandatory repayments of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility shall not reduce the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility.
		
	 4.  COLLATERAL
	  	
		
	Collateral:	  	Subject to the Certain Funds Provision and the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Collateral” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter. The Collateral
shall be subject to exceptions and qualifications consistent with the Existing Revolving Credit Documents (as defined below).
		
	 5.  CONDITIONS
	  	
		
	Conditions to Initial Borrowing:	  	The extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility on the Closing Date will be subject solely to the conditions precedent set forth in Exhibit C to the Commitment Letter.
		
	Conditions after Closing Date:	  	The making of each extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility after the Closing Date shall be conditioned upon (a) delivery of a customary borrowing notice, (b) the accuracy of representations and warranties
in all material respects, and (c) the absence of defaults or events of default at the time of, or after giving effect to the making of, such extension of credit.
		
	 6.  DOCUMENTATION
	  	
		
	Revolving Credit Documentation:	  	The definitive documentation with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (the “Revolving Credit Documentation” and, together with the Term Facilities Documentation, the “Facilities Documentation”)
shall be documented in a single agreement with the Term Loan Facility and consistent with the Company Credit Agreement and the Company Loan Documents, the “Company Loan Documents”)) and will contain the terms set forth in this
Exhibit B and the last paragraph under the heading “Term Documentation” under Exhibit A and, to the extent any other terms are not expressly set forth herein or in the Company


  
 B-6 














			
		  	Credit Agreement will (i) be negotiated in good faith within a reasonable time period to be determined based on the expected Closing Date and taking into account the timing of the syndication of the Term Loan Facility and the pre-closing requirements of the Acquisition Agreement, (ii) contain such other terms as the Revolving Credit Borrowers and the Revolving Credit Arrangers shall reasonably agree, (iii) give due regard to
the leverage profile and projected free cash flow generation of the Revolving Credit Borrowers and their restricted subsidiaries after giving effect to the Transactions, (iv) reflect the operational and strategic requirements of the Borrower

successor provisions to be agreed, customary restrictions on the allocation of assets and liabilities in connection with any division or plan of division of any subsidiary that is a limited liability company, customary EU/UK bail-in provisions, FINCEN provisions with respect to the Revolving Credit Borrowers’ beneficial ownership, QFC stay rule, other updates to address changes in law and modifications (including erroneous payments
provisions) to reflect the operational and agency requirements of the Revolving Credit Agent (the “Revolving Credit Documentation Principles”).
		
	Financial Covenant:	  	Maintenance of a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio equal to 6.00:1.00, which ratio will only be tested at the end of any fiscal quarter where more than 35% of the Revolving Credit Facility is drawn (net of unrestricted cash and
cash equivalents of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries and excluding Letters of Credit) at such date.
		
	Unrestricted Subsidiaries:	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Unrestricted Subsidiaries” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.

to material indebtedness; bankruptcy events of the Borrower or any restricted subsidiary that is not an immaterial subsidiary (with a customary grace period for involuntary events); certain ERISA events; material unsatisfied judgments; actual or

a change of control.
		
	Voting, Assignments and Participations, Yield Protection:	  	After the Closing Date, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be permitted to assign (except to Disqualified Institutions, if the list of Disqualified Institutions has been provided to all Revolving Credit Lenders) the Revolving Credit
Loans with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (the Borrower’s consent shall be deemed given if it fails to respond within ten business days); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be
required (i) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a payment or bankruptcy event of default or (ii) for assignments of loans to any existing Revolving Credit Lender or an affiliate or related fund of an existing Revolving
Credit Lender. All assignments will require the consent of the Revolving Credit Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such assignment is an assignment of the Revolving Credit Loans to another Revolving Credit Lender, an affiliate
of a Revolving Credit Lender or an approved fund. Each assignment will be in a minimum amount of $10.0 million and in integral multiples to be agreed or, in each case, if less, all of such Revolving Credit Lender’s remaining loans and
commitments of the applicable class. Natural persons and the Borrower, its subsidiaries and affiliates may not be assignees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolving Credit Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring assignments or
participations for compliance with the list of Disqualified Institutions, if any.


  
 B-8 














			
		 	The Revolving Credit Lenders are permitted to sell participations in Revolving Credit Loans and commitments without notice or restriction (except to Disqualified Institutions, if the list of Disqualified Institutions has been
provided to all Revolving Credit Lenders), other than as set forth in the next sentence, and in accordance with applicable law. Voting rights of participants shall be limited to matters in respect of (a) increases in commitments participated to
such participants, (b) reductions of principal, interest or fees, (c) extensions of final maturity and (d) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees or all or substantially all of the Collateral.
		
		 	Amendments and waivers with respect to the Revolving Credit Documentation shall require the approval of Revolving Credit Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount Loans and commitments under the Revolving Credit
Facility (the “Required Revolving Lenders”), except that (a) in addition to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders, the consent of each Revolving Credit Lender directly affected thereby shall be required with respect to
(i) reductions in the amount or extensions of the scheduled date of any amortization or final maturity of any Loan, (ii) reductions in the rate of interest or any fee or extensions of any due date thereof (but, for the avoidance of doubt,
other than default rate interest) and (iii) increases in the amount or extensions of the expiry date of any Revolving Credit Lender’s commitment, (b) the consent of 100% of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be required with respect

Collateral permitted by the Revolving Credit Documentation), and (iii) releases of all or substantially all of the Guarantors (other than in connection with the release or sale of the relevant Guarantor permitted by the Revolving Credit
Documentation) and (c) the consent of Revolving Credit Loan Agent or an Issuing Lender shall be required with respect to any amendment or modification that affects its rights or duties as administrative agent or issuing lender, as applicable.
Any amendment or waiver that by its terms affects only the rights or duties of Revolving Credit Lenders holding loans or commitments of a particular class (but not the Revolving Credit Lenders holding loans or commitments of any other class) will
require only the requisite percentage in interest of the affected class of Revolving Credit Lenders that would be required to consent thereto if such class of Revolving Credit Lenders were the only class of Revolving Credit Lenders.
		
		 	The Revolving Credit Documentation contains customary provisions for replacing non-consenting Revolving Credit Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all
Revolving Credit Lenders or of all Revolving Credit Lenders directly affected thereby so long as the Required Revolving Lenders shall have consented thereto.


  
 B-9 














			
		  	In addition, if the Revolving Credit Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error, ambiguity, defect, inconsistency or omission of a technical nature in the Revolving Credit Documentation, then
the Revolving Credit Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision without any further action or consent of any other party.
		
		  	The Revolving Credit Documentation will permit guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents to be, together with the credit agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Revolving Credit Agent at the
request of the Borrower without the need for consent by any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order to (i) comply with local law or advice of local counsel or (ii) cause such guarantee, collateral security document
or other document to be consistent with the credit agreement and the other Revolving Credit Documentation.
		
	Defaulting Lenders:	  	The Revolving Credit Documentation will include customary defaulting lender provisions to protect the Revolving Credit Agent and the Issuing Lenders with respect to the funding and reimbursement obligations of defaulting lenders.
The Revolving Credit Borrowers will not be required to pay certain fees to any defaulting lender and the voting rights of defaulting lenders (except in the case of certain customary matters) shall be suspended. Upon any Revolving Credit Lender
becoming a defaulting lender, the outstanding Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among non-defaulting lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility (up to their respective commitments) and, to the extent any
Letter of Credit exposure remains unallocated, the Revolving Credit Borrowers shall be required to post cash collateral in the amount of the product of (x) the face amount of the issued Letters of Credit multiplied by (y) the unallocated
commitment percentage of defaulting lenders. A defaulting lender is a lender who has failed to perform certain of its obligations under the Revolving Credit Documentation or has become insolvent or is in receivership as more fully set forth in the
Revolving Credit Documentation. The loans and commitments of defaulting lenders shall not be counted toward the calculation of the Required Revolving Lenders.
		
	Expenses and Indemnification:	  	Subject to the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles, substantially consistent with the section titled “Expenses and Indemnification” set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.

MKS Instruments, Inc. 

$5,280.0 million Term Loan Facility 

$500.0 million Revolving Credit Facility 

Summary of Terms and Conditions 

Unless otherwise defined in this Exhibit C, capitalized terms used in this Exhibit C shall have the meanings set forth in the
Commitment Letter to which this Exhibit C is attached and the other Exhibits to the Commitment Letter. Subject in all respects to the Certain Funds Provision and the Documentation Principles, the commitments of the Initial Lenders’ and
the Arrangers’ and other agents’ agreements to perform the services described herein (including the initial borrowings under the Facilities) are subject solely to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Term Arrangers with respect to any
condition applicable to the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Arrangers with respect to any condition applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility) of the following conditions precedent, as applicable: 

1. (a) Subject to the Certain Funds Provision, with regard to the Term Loan Facility, definitive loan documentation for the Term Loan Facility consistent with
the Term Sheet, the Commitment Letter (including, without limitation, the Guarantees and Collateral to the extent required by the Term Documentation, the Term Sheet and the Commitment Letter) and the Documentation Principles shall have been executed
and delivered by the Borrowers and the Guarantors to the Term Loan Agent and (b) subject to the Certain Funds Provision, with regard to the Revolving Credit Facility, definitive loan documentation for the Revolving Credit Facility consistent
with the Term Sheet, the Commitment Letter (including, without limitation, the Guarantees and Collateral) and the Revolving Credit Documentation Principles shall have been executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Guarantors to the Revolving
Credit Agent. 
 2. The Acquisition shall have been, or substantially concurrently with the initial borrowings under the Facilities shall be, consummated in
all material respects in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement. No material provision of the Acquisition Agreement shall have been waived, amended or otherwise modified, or any consent given thereunder, in a manner material and adverse to the
Lenders (in their capacity as such) without the consent of the Arrangers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that (a) any reduction in the purchase price for the Acquisition set forth in
the Acquisition Agreement shall not be deemed to be material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders so long as any such reduction is applied on a dollar-for-dollar
basis to reduce the amount of commitments in respect of the Term Loan Facility, (b) any increase in the purchase price set forth in the Acquisition Agreement shall be deemed to be not material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders so long
as such purchase price increase is not funded with additional indebtedness (it being understood and agreed that no purchase price, working capital or similar adjustment provisions set forth in the Acquisition Agreement shall constitute a reduction
or increase in the purchase price) and (c) each Arranger shall be deemed to have consented to any such waiver, amendment or modification unless they shall object thereto in writing (including via email) within three business days of receipt of
written notice of such waiver, amendment or modification. 
 3. The Refinancing shall have been made or consummated prior to, or shall be made or
