or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Subject to Section 2.22, all amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Maturity Date. Each Lender’s Term Commitment shall terminate immediately and
without further action on the Closing Date after giving effect to the funding of such Lender’s Term Commitment on such date. Subject to Section 2.14, the Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by
Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.10.

Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender on the applicable Maturity Date.

Agreement. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(b)(iv), and a subaccount for
each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class of each Loan made and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal
or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from Borrower to each Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from Borrower and each Lender’s
share thereof. 
 (e) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (c) and
(d) of this Section 2.7 shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure
of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the


  
 -42- 








 
Loans made to Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrower hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the
Register as provided in this Section 2.7, and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall
constitute “Indemnitees.” 
 (f) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In
such event, Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.
Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.6) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named
therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on such Business Day, in the

revoked, subject to Section 2.19. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on
the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of ABR Loans, $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof
and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 
 (b) Call Protection.

(i) together with the payment of the applicable Make-Whole Amount if such repayment or repricing occurs on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, (ii) at 102.0% of the principal amount repaid or repriced if such repayment
or repricing occurs after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, but on or prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date, (iii) at 101.0% of the principal amount repaid or repriced if such repayment or repricing occurs after
the date that is 18 months after the Closing Date but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date and (iv) at par thereafter. It is expressly agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no premium, penalty or
call protection under this Section 2.8(b) shall be due in connection with a mandatory prepayment of Loans required pursuant to Section 2.9 hereof other than a mandatory prepayment under Section 2.9(c).

Borrower or its Subsidiaries have contractually committed to reinvest such proceeds within 365 days following receipt thereof, Borrower shall have the option, directly or through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Asset Sale

Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within 365 days of receipt thereof (or, if Borrower or its Subsidiaries have contractually committed to reinvest such proceeds within 365 days following receipt thereof, Borrower shall have the option, directly or
through one or more of its Subsidiaries, to invest such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds within the later of such 365 day period and 180 days from the entry into such contractual commitment) in assets useful to the business of Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, which investment may include the repair, restoration or replacement of the applicable assets thereof; provided, further, that any such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds that have not been so reinvested shall be applied
by Borrower to prepay the Loans.

Borrower shall only be required to make the prepayments otherwise required hereby in an amount equal to (i) 25% of such Consolidated Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) voluntary repayments of the Loans made pursuant to Section 2.8(a)
during such period or fiscal year, as applicable, or prior to the date on which such prepayment is to be made for the prior period or fiscal year, as applicable, with Internally Generated Cash; provided, that if, as of the last day of the
most recently ended fiscal year of Borrower, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (calculating the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such fiscal year) is 4.25:1.00 or less, Borrower shall not be required to make the prepayments required.

 (e) Excess Cash Flow Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.9(d) above,

Section 2.9 if such prepayment is prohibited at such time by the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 2.9, mandatory prepayments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $100,000 in any one fiscal year shall not be required to the extent that if, following such repayment, any Loan Party would have insufficient funds to make a REIT

to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable Conversion/Continuation Notice of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided that any such
conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of
such election no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no ABR Loan may be
converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender of the applicable Class thereof. 

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by Borrower
giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” 

  
 -45-

provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and provided, further, that if Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this
paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender of the applicable Class thereof. 
 2.11 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that,
(a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar
Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 
 2.12 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear
interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 

(c) If all or a portion of the principal amount of, or any interest payable on, any Loan or other amount payable hereunder or under any Loan
Document shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable
thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% or (y) in the case of any other amount, the rate applicable to ABR Loans plus 2%, in each case, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as
well as before judgment). 
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing
pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
 2.13 Computation of Interest and
Fees. (a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime
Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify Borrower and
the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on
which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 

  
 -46- 








 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision
of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of Borrower, deliver to Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the
Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.12(a). 
 2.14 Inability to Determine Interest
Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall
be conclusive and binding upon Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders of any Class that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period, 

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable
thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans with respect to such Class requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans with respect to such Class that were to have
been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans with respect to such Class shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest
Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans with respect to such Class shall be made or continued as such, nor shall Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans
with respect to such Class. 
 2.15 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by Borrower from the Lenders hereunder
shall be made pro rata according to the respective Applicable Percentage of the Lenders. 
 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by
Borrower on account of principal of the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders. Each payment of interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the
respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders, except to the extent that this Agreement provides that different Classes of Loans shall have different Applicable Margins, in which case each payment shall be allocated
to the Lenders in such Class pro rata according to the respective Applicable Percentages of the relevant Lenders. 
 (c) All payments
(including prepayments) to be made by Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof
to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in 

  
 -47- 








 
Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt in like funds as received, net of any amounts
owing by such Lender pursuant to Section 9.7. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar 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. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be
payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any
Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to
the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing
Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent
in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect
to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after
such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, on demand, from Borrower. 

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by
Borrower hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by Borrower within three (3) Business Days after such due date, the Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds
Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against Borrower. 
 2.16
Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a
proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall 

  
 -48- 








 
(a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be
equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). 

Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant
to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

2.17 Change in Law. (a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses
(b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or
capital attributable thereto; 
 (ii) 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 Recipient that is not otherwise included
in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
 (iii) impose on such Recipient any other condition; 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Recipient, by an amount that such Recipient deems to be material, of making, converting
into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay such Recipient, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate
such Recipient for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Recipient becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the
event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital
adequacy or liquidity 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 or liquidity (whether or not having the force of
law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof 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


  
 -49- 








 
below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to
capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
 (c) A certificate as to any
additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section,
Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of Borrower pursuant to this Section
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 (d) If any Lender
shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon Borrower) that the making, maintaining, converting to or continuation of its Eurodollar Loans has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in
good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith
would not be unlawful), such Affected Lender shall on that day give notice (by e-mail or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrower and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each
other Lender). If Administrative Agent receives a notice from any Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of such Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such notice
shall be withdrawn, (2) to the extent such determination by such Lender relates to a Eurodollar Loan then being requested by Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Lender shall make such Loan as (or
continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) an ABR Loan, (3) such Lender’s obligations to maintain outstanding Eurodollar Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of
the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into ABR Loans on the date of such termination. 

2.18 Taxes. 
 (a) Any and
all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith
discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall
timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased


  
 -50- 








 
as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) the
applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 
 (b) The
Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes. 

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18,
such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10
days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be
withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any
Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so),
(ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each
case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set
off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
Section 2.18(e). 
 (f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to
payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested
by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably 

  
 -51- 








 
requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will
enable Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion,
execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such
completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which
such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal
backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request
of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender
claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2)
executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 
 (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 

  
 -52- 








 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed
originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each
beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent
(in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and
such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with
such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any
respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has
been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of
indemnity payments made under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net 

  
 -53- 








 
of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).
Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.18(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(g), in no event will the indemnified party be
required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.18(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the
indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes
that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (h) Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Term Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge
of all Obligations under any Loan Document. 
 2.19 Indemnity. Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender
harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) the failure by Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after Borrower has given a notice requesting
the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) the failure by Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (d) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified in a
notice of prepayment given by Borrower. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the
period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date
of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender)
that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to
Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder for a period of 180 days. 

2.20 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of
Section 2.17 or 2.18 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by
such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that in the sole judgment of such 

  
 -54- 








 
Lender, such designation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject
such Lender to any unreimbursed costs or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation. 

2.21 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (a) is entitled to additional compensation under Section 2.17 or
2.18, or (b) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the
Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained), Borrower, at its sole expense and effort, may cause such Lender to (and, if Borrower so demands, such Lender shall) assign all of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to one or more replacement financial institutions; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) in the case of any such replacement resulting from a claim for
compensation under Section 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (iii) the replacement financial institution shall
purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.19 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such
replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement financial institution shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld), (vi) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, Borrower shall pay all
additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.17 or 2.18, as the case may be, and (viii) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment shall
cease to apply. 
 2.22 Increase Option; Extension Options; Refinancing Option. 

(a) Increase Option. (i) Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date
elect to establish one or more new term loan commitments (“New Term Loan Commitments”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at the time the time of incurrence (or, at the option of Borrower, in the case of an incurrence
to finance a Permitted Acquisition, as of the date the definitive agreements for such Permitted Acquisition are entered into), the Incremental Amount. Each tranche of New Term Loan Commitments shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not
less than $10,000,000. Borrower may arrange for any such increase to be provided by one or more Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to an increase in its Term Commitment, an “Increasing Lender”), and/or by one or more new banks,
financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, a “New Lender”). No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in such increase) shall be required for any New
Term Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.22(a). New Term Loan Commitments created pursuant to this Section 2.22(a) shall become effective on the date agreed by Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the


  
 -55- 








 
relevant Increasing Lenders or New Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no New Term Loan Commitment shall become effective under
this paragraph unless, on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase, (w) no Default or Event of Default (or, if the proceeds of such New Term Loan Commitment shall be used to finance a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment
permitted under Section 7.10, no Default or Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or (g)) shall have occurred and be continuing or would result after giving effect to such increase, (x) Borrower shall have paid all fees and other
amounts (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 10.5) due and payable by Borrower in connection with such increase, (y) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as the date of such increase, before and after giving effect to such increase, as if made on and as of such date, and (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received
(1) documents consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date as to the corporate power and authority of the Loan Parties to enter into the Increasing Lender Agreement and/or New Lender Agreement, as applicable, and to continue perform
their obligations under the Loan Documents and (2) Borrower shall have delivered or caused to be delivered customary legal opinions as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Nothing contained
in this Section 2.22(a). shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Loans or to provide a New Term Loan Commitment hereunder at any time. 

(ii) On any such date on which any New Term Loan Commitments is effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms
and conditions, (i) each New Lender shall make a Loan to Borrower (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment, and (ii) each New Lender shall become a Lender hereunder. 

(iii) The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments shall be as set forth herein or in the New
Lender Agreement. In any event (i) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of all New Term Loans shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then existing Loans (whichever is longest), (ii) the applicable
Maturity Date shall be no shorter than the latest of the final maturity of the then existing Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans shall be determined by Borrower and the applicable New Lenders and shall be
set forth in each applicable New Lender Agreement; provided, however, that the Weighted Average Yield applicable to the New Term Loans shall not be greater than the applicable Weighted Average Yield payable pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement as amended through the date of such calculation with respect to the Loans plus 0.50% per annum unless the interest rate with respect to the Loan is increased so as to cause the then applicable Weighted Average Yield under this
Agreement on the Loans to equal the Weighted Average Yield then applicable to the New Term Loans less 0.50% (iv) the New Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the Loans; and (v) all other terms of the New
Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments shall be on terms and conditions that are substantially identical to, or no more favorable (taken as a whole) to the Lenders providing such New Term Loan than, those applicable to the Loans except, in each
case, (x) for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest final Maturity Date of the Loans existing at the time of such refinancing and (y) 

  
 -56- 








 
for any Previously Absent Repayment and Financial Maintenance Covenant, in which case the Administrative Agent shall be given prompt written notice of such Previously Absent Repayment and
Financial Maintenance Covenant and the Loan Documents shall be automatically and without further action deemed modified on or prior to the date of the incurrence of indebtedness under such New Term Loan to include such Previously Absent Repayment
and Financial Maintenance Covenant for the benefit of the Loan, it being understood that upon the amendment of the Loan Documents to include any such Previously Absent Repayment and Financial Maintenance Covenant, any subsequent amendment,
modification or waiver to the Loan Documents as it pertains to such Previously Absent Repayment and Financial Maintenance Covenant shall only be permitted in the manner described under Section 10.1. Each New Lender Agreement and
Increasing Lender Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of Administrative Agent to effect the provision of
this Section 2.22(a). For the avoidance of doubt, any New Term Loans may be made as an increase to an existing Class of Loans with terms that are identical to such existing Class of Loans. Any New Term Loan shall constitute a separate
Class from the then existing Loans. 
 (b) Extension Options. (i) Borrower may, from time to time, request that all or a portion
of the Loans (as used herein, the “Existing Loans”) of any Class (an “Existing Class”) be converted to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect
to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Existing Loans (any such Existing Loans which have been so extended, “Extended Loans”), provided that any such extension may be requested no later than 30 days prior to the
maturity of the applicable Class. Prior to entering into any Extension Amendment with respect to any Extended Loans, Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the
applicable Existing Class and which such request shall be offered equally to all such Lenders) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Loans to be established thereunder, which terms shall be
identical to the Loans of the Existing Class from which they are to be extended except that (w) the scheduled final maturity date of such Extended Loans will be delayed to later dates than the scheduled Maturity Date of such Existing Class,
(x) (A) the interest rates, interest margins, rate floors and upfront fees with respect to the Extended Loans may be different than those for the Existing Loans and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such
Extended Loans in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, (y) the Extension Amendment may provide for other
covenants and terms that apply to any period after the latest Maturity Date in effect prior to giving effect to such Extension Amendment, and (z) the terms of any Extended Loan may also contain other differences from the Existing Class from
which they are to be extended as are approved by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, so long as such differences are not material and not adverse to the Lenders of such Existing Class; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 2.22(b) or otherwise, (1) the repayment of Loans with respect to any Extended Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis (or less than pro rata basis) with any repayments of the Existing Loans of the Class of
Existing Loans from which they were extended (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Amendment and may include technical changes related to the borrowing procedures of such Class of Existing Loans) and
(2) assignments and participations of Extended Loans shall be 

  
 -57- 








 
governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Existing Classes set forth in Section 10.6. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its
Existing Loans of any Existing Class converted into Extended Loans pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Loans of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class from the Existing Class from which they were converted and from any
other existing Loans. 
 (ii) Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days
prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Class or Existing Classes are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case
acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.22(b). Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to such Extension Request
converted into Extended Loans shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to such
Extension Request that it has elected to convert into Extended Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent); provided that if any Lenders of an Existing Class fail to respond, such Lenders will
be deemed to have declined to extend their Existing Loans. In the event that the aggregate amount of Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request,
Existing Loans of the Existing Class or Existing Classes subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Loans on a pro rata basis based on the amount of the Loans included in each such Extension Election (subject to rounding). 

(iii) Extended Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this
Agreement (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.22(b)(iii) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.1, shall not require the consent of
any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders. No Extension Amendment shall provide for any tranche of Extended
Loans in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $25,000,000. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.22(b) and without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 10.1 to any
Section 2.22(b) Additional Amendments, any Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, a
“Section 2.22(b) Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Section 2.22(b) Additional Amendments are within the requirements of Section 2.22(b)(i)
and do not become effective prior to the time that such Section 2.22(b) Additional Amendments have been consented to (including, without limitation, pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Loans provided for in any
Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Section 2.22(b) Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance with Section 10.1. Such
Extension Amendment shall provide that each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such extension, before


  
 -58- 








 
and after giving effect to such extension, as if made on and as of such date. In connection with any Extension Amendment, Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent (i) as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as contemplated
by the immediately preceding sentence), (ii) to the effect that such Extension Amendment, including the Extended Loans provided for therein, does not conflict with or violate the terms and provisions of Section 10.1 of this
Agreement and (iii) covering such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith. 

(iv) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent to enter into Extension Amendments in accordance with this
Section 2.22(b). 
 (c) Refinancing Amendments. (i) At any time after the Closing Date, Borrower may obtain,
from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of any Class of the Loans under this Agreement, as the case may be, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment;
provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall (x) rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Loans and (y) may not be (I) secured by any assets other than Collateral or (II) guaranteed by
any Person other than a Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 (ii) The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the
satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 5.2 and, except as otherwise specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, the Administrative Agent shall have
received (with sufficient copies for each of the Additional Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and substantially consistent with those delivered on the Closing
Date under Section 5.1. 
 (iii) Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this
Section 2.22(c) shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $25,000,000 and an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof unless such amount represents the total outstanding amount of the Refinanced Debt or the
Administrative Agent otherwise consents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment.

(iv) Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Borrower, to reflect the existence of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness as new Classes, incurred pursuant thereto and to
otherwise effect the provisions of this Section 2.22(c). 
 (d) Repricing Option. (i) Borrower may at any time and
from time to time request that the Applicable Margin be modified. In order to modify the Applicable Margin pursuant to this Section, Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall


  
 -59- 








 
provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders) (a “Repricing Request”) setting forth the proposed new Applicable Margin to be established. No Lender shall have any
obligation to agree to such Repricing Request. 
 (ii) Borrower shall provide the applicable Repricing Request at least ten
(10) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the
purpose of this Section 2.22(d). Any Lender (an “Accepting Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Loans subject to such Repricing Request shall notify the Administrative Agent (a “Repricing
Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Repricing Request of the amount of its Loans that it has elected to continue subject to the new Applicable Margin (the “Repriced Loans”); provided that if any
Lenders fail to respond, such Lenders will be deemed to have declined to continue their Loans. In the event that the aggregate amount of Repriced Loans is less than the aggregate amount of Loans outstanding, Borrower may arrange for any such
shortfall to be provided by one or more Lenders (each Lender so agreeing to an increase in its Loans, an “Increasing Repriced Lender”), and/or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank,
financial institution or other entity, a “New Repriced Lender”), increasing their existing Loans; provided, that (A) the amount of increased Loans of each Increasing Repriced Lender and each New Repriced Lender shall be
subject to the approval of Borrower, the Administrative Agent and (B)(1) in the case of an Increasing Repriced Lender, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and such Increasing Repriced Lender shall have executed an Increasing Lender
Agreement and (2) in the case of a New Repriced Lender, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and such New Repriced Lender shall have executed a New Lender Agreement. No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in such
repricing) shall be required for any change in the Applicable Margin pursuant to this Section 2.22(d). 
 (iii)
The modification of the definition of Applicable Margin shall be established pursuant to an amendment (a “Repricing Amendment”) to this Agreement (which notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.1,
shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Accepting Lenders, Increasing Repriced Lenders and New Repriced Lenders) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Accepting Lenders, the Increasing Repriced Lenders and
the New Repriced Lenders. No such Repricing Amendment shall become effective unless (w) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result after giving effect to such increase, (x) Borrower shall have paid
all fees and other amounts (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 10.5) due and payable by Borrower in connection with such Repricing Amendment, (y) each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in
or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such Repricing Amendment, before and after giving effect to such Repricing Amendment, as if made on and as of such date and (z) the
Administrative Agent shall have received (1) documents consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date as to the corporate power and authority of the Loan Parties to enter into the Repricing Amendment, Increasing Lender Agreement and New
Lender Agreement, as applicable, and to continue perform their obligations under the Loan 

  
 -60- 








 
Documents and (2) Borrower shall have delivered or caused to be delivered customary legal opinions as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such
transaction, including (i) as to the enforceability of such Repricing Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as
contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence), (ii) to the effect that such Repricing Amendment does not conflict with or violate the terms and provisions of Section 10.1 of this Agreement and (iii) covering such other
matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith. 
 (iv) On the effective date of any
Repricing Amendment, (A) the Loans of any Lender that is not an Accepting Lender with respect to such Repricing Amendment shall be terminated, (B) each relevant Accepting Lender, Increasing Repriced Lender and New Repriced Lender shall
make available to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the other Lenders, such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such Repricing
Amendment and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Loans of all the Lenders to equal its Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Loans (including, for the avoidance of doubt,
the repayment in full of the principal on the Loans of any Lender that is not an Accepting Lender) and (C) Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Loans as of the date of any Repricing Amendment (with such
reborrowing to consist of the Types of Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by Borrower, in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.2). The deemed payments made pursuant to
clause (C) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by (1) payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each Eurodollar Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by Borrower pursuant to the
provisions of Section 2.19 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods and (2) payment of all other amounts owed to any Lender that is not an Accepting Lender hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents. 
 (v) Nothing contained in this Section 2.22(d) shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be,
a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Loans hereunder at any time. 
 This Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions
in Section 2.15 or 2.16 to the contrary. 
 2.23 [Reserved.] 

2.24 [Reserved.] 

2.25 Default Event. 
 (a)
In the event that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall direct the Conditional Controlled Account Bank to transfer any amounts on deposit in the Conditional Controlled Account, or any amounts
that are deposited in the Conditional Controlled Account during such period, to the Account. 

  
 -61- 








 (b) In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative
Agent is authorized by Borrower and shall, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, apply the amounts on deposit in the Account from time to time and all cash distributions from any of Borrower’s direct or indirect Subsidiaries on and after the
occurrence of an Event of Default, in the following order: 
 First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees,
indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; 

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid fees (including pursuant to
Section 2.5), interest on the Loans and other Obligations, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal) payable to the Lenders (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders), ratably among them
in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them; and 
 Third, to payment of
that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third held by them. 

(c) In the event that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower shall cause each of its direct and indirect Subsidiaries to
make the maximum amount of cash distributions to its respective parent entity that it is not prohibited from making under the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents directly into the Account. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 2.25; 

(i) the Loan Parties may request, and the Administrative Agent will comply with any such request, for withdrawals from the
Account and the Conditional Controlled Account, in an amount not to exceed $100,000 per annum in the aggregate, for the purposes of making REIT Distributions; and 

(ii) as long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall direct that all
amounts in the Account be remitted to the Conditional Controlled Account.

 -62- 








 
Borrower and its Subsidiaries or the Parent and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, as of the date of each such financial statement. All such financial statements, including the related schedules
and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved, subject to year-end audit adjustments. 

4.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2013, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease
the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged except for where failure to do so could not reasonable be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation
or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law
except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver
and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the
Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any
Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except consents,
authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on
behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in
accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles
(whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
 4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or require, the
creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Collateral Documents). 

  
 -63- 








 4.6 Litigation. No action, suit, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator
or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or against any of their respective property as to which there is a reasonable

property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3. 

4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its

Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person except to
the extent that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

“real estate investment trust” as defined in Section 856 of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all federal, state and other material tax returns and reports that are

any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the
relevant Group Member); no Tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such Taxes, fees or other charges.

Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than a material amount the fair market value of the combined assets of all such underfunded Pension Plans.

funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (ii) in any other manner that would result in a violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws or Sanctions by any party to this Agreement, with respect to (i) and (ii) to the extent prohibited by
Sanctions or Anti-Corruption Laws. 
 4.16 Environmental Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect: 
 (a) the facilities and properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the
“Properties”) do not contain, and have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted an unresolved violation of, or would
reasonably be expected to give rise now or in the future to liability under, any Environmental Law; 
 (b) no Group Member has received or
is aware of any written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding matters arising under Environmental Laws or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the

(c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been transported or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a
location that would reasonably expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law, nor have any Materials of Environmental Concern been generated, treated, stored or disposed of at, on or under any of the Properties in violation of, or

Section 4.16 are not being qualified by matters or conditions which are not included in such specific facts but are being qualified only by the direct and natural consequences of the explicit factual disclosures contained in the EMG
Reports. For example, the disclosure of a current or former storage tank does not have the effect of disclosing contamination which may have leaked from such storage tank unless and only to the extent that such EMG Report specifically states that
the storage tank leaked contamination. 
 4.17 Accuracy of Information, etc. All written information contained in this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents, other than projections and information of a general economic or industry nature, is and will be, when furnished, complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, when furnished, contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were or are made. The projections contained in the
materials referenced above are prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made and at the time such projections are made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections are not to be viewed as facts and that
actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material. There is no fact known to any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents or in any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. 
 4.18 Collateral Documents. The Security Agreement is effective to create in
favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged Securities described in the Security Agreement,
when stock certificates representing such Pledged Securities are delivered to the Administrative Agent (together with a properly completed and signed stock power or endorsement), and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Security
Agreement, when financing statements and other filings specified on Schedule 4.18 in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.18, the Security Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right,

4.19 Insurance. Each Group Member maintains with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance on all its property in

established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. No borrowing, use of proceeds or other transaction contemplated by this Agreement will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions. 

4.21 Certain Documents. Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a complete and correct copy of the Mortgage Loan Documents
and the REIT Revolver Loan Documents, including, in each case, any amendments, supplements or modifications with respect to any of the foregoing.

SECTION 9. THE AGENTS 

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise
such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 9 (except for
Section 9.9) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and Lenders and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. 

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by
or through agents, affiliates or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan
Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or
(ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the
observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 

  
 -99- 








 9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely,
and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders)
as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent
shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such
request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 

9.5 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 unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or Loan Party 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 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 (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all 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. 

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of
a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own
decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to
the business, operations, property, 

  
 -100- 








 
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by
the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise),
prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, advisors and
controlling persons (each, an “Agent Indemnitee”) (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable 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 that may at any time (whether
before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of, the Term Commitments, the Loans, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents 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 such Agent 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 that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may
call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any
liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof; and provided further, this sentence shall not be deemed to require any
Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. The agreements in this Section shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 9.8 Agent in Its
Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it,
each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each
Agent in its individual capacity. 
 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent
upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to
appoint a successor, 

  
 -101- 








 
which successor agent (other than a Disqualified Institution) shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(g) with respect to Borrower shall have
occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term
“Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or
further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office
in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank, which successor agent shall (unless (i) an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(g) with respect to Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing
or (ii) such successor agent is a Lender) be subject to approval by Borrower (which approval shall not be withheld or delayed by Borrower except for a bona fide valid reason). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder. The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s
resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was
acting as Administrative Agent. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s
resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as a successor agent is appointed as provided for above. 

9.10 Lead Arrangers; Joint Bookrunners; Syndication Agents. No Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner or Syndication Agent shall have any
duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such. 
 9.11 Agents May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

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

  
 -102- 








 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims
and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent
any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.5 and 10.5. 

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

9.12 Agents under Collateral Documents and Subsidiary Guarantee. Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent on
behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents; provided that Administrative Agent shall not
owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Obligations with respect to any Swap Agreement. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the
existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be
responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 
 9.13 Intercreditor
Agreements. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to enter into any Customary Intercreditor Agreements, and the parties hereto acknowledge that any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement will be binding upon them. Each Lender
(a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers thereof or supplements thereto or
other modifications thereto), (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Customary Intercreditor Agreements (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers thereof or
supplements thereto or other modifications thereto) and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof, and to negotiate, execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any additional Collateral
Documents or any amendment (or amendment and restatement) to the Collateral Documents to effect the provisions contemplated by Section 2.22 or any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender 

  
 -103- 








 
waives any conflict of interest, now contemplated or arising hereafter, in connection therewith and agrees not to assert against any Agent or any of its affiliates any claims, causes of action,
damages or liabilities of whatever kind or nature relating thereto.

Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such
amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of
applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any
Lender’s Term Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 10.1 without the written consent of such
Lender; (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or
substantially all of the Collateral, release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under any Subsidiary Guarantee, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of
Sections 2.9, 2.15, 2.16, 2.25 or 7.7 (including any definition component thereof) without the written consent of all Lenders; (v) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms
adversely affects the payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders representing the Majority in Interest of each affected Class; or
(vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other provision of any Loan Document that affects the Administrative Agent without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; provided that any amendment,
waiver or other modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders of a particular Class (but not the Lenders of any other Class), may be effected by an agreement or agreements in
writing entered into by Borrower and the Majority in Interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Any such
waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of 

  
 -104- 








 
the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan
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 the
foregoing, the consent of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall not be required to effect the provisions of Section 2.22 in accordance with the terms thereof. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.1(a), no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment, modification or supplement
to any Customary Intercreditor Agreement (i) that is for the purpose of adding the holders of Indebtedness that is secured Indebtedness (or a lender or holder representative with respect thereto) as parties thereto, as expressly contemplated by
the terms of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement (it being understood that any such amendment, modification or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable Customary Intercreditor Agreement as, in the good faith determination of the
Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing and provided, that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect, to the interests of the Lenders) or (ii) that is expressly contemplated by any Customary
Intercreditor Agreement. 
 10.2 Notices.

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall not be effective until received. 

(b) Electronic Communications. 

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

(ii) Each Loan Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and
that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the
Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 -107- 








 (iii) The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided
“as is” and “as available”. None of the Agents or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or representatives (the “Agent Affiliates”) warrant the accuracy, adequacy, or
completeness of the Approved Electronic Communications or the Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory,
including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects is made by the Agent Affiliates in connection with the Platform or the Approved
Electronic Communications. 
 (iv) Each Loan Party, each Lender and each Agent agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but
shall not be obligated to, store any Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary document retention procedures and policies. 

(v) Any notice of Default or Event of Default may be provided by telephone if confirmed promptly thereafter by delivery of
written notice thereof. 
 (c) Private Side Information Contacts. Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on
behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with
such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public-Side Information” portion of the
Platform and that may contain Private-Side Information. In the event that any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other
Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) neither Borrower nor the Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection
with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in
exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy,
power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights,
remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and
warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other
extensions of credit hereunder. 

  
 -108- 








 10.5 Payment of Expenses; Damages Waiver. Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the
Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel which shall be limited to one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, one local
counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Person affected by such conflict informs you of such conflict and thereafter, after receipt of your consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel (and local counsel, if applicable) for such affected Person) incurred in connection with the syndication, development, preparation and execution of,
and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and
thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and filing and recording fees and expenses, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to Borrower prior to the Closing Date (in the
case of amounts to be paid on the Closing Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all its
costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees
and expenses of in-house counsel) to the Administrative Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or
resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated
by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, each Lead Arranger,
the Administrative Agent and their Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the syndication, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents (including any Increasing Lender Agreement or New Lender Agreement), an Extension Amendment, a Refinancing Amendment and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of
the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Group Member or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees and expenses of one primary counsel, one local counsel in
each applicable jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs you of such conflict and thereafter, after receipt of your consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel (and local counsel, if applicable) for such affected Indemnitee in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against any Loan
Party under any Loan Document (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such 

  
 -109- 








 
Indemnified Liabilities (i) are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or (ii) arise out of any dispute brought solely by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee, do not arise out of or relate to any request, act or omission by Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or
Affiliates and do not involve the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as administrative agent, or any Lead Arranger, in its capacity as a lead arranger. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, Borrower agrees
not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines,
liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the foregoing indemnity and waiver shall specifically exclude any Indemnified Liabilities and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements relating to (i) Materials
of Environmental Concern which are initially placed on, in or under the Property or any surrounding areas, or any violation of Environmental Laws which first occurs, or any condition first created, or any other acts which first occur, after
foreclosure, a deed in lieu of foreclosure or other taking of title to or Property by Lender or its designee, or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 10.5(d)(i)-(ii) above. All amounts due under this
Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to Peter Crage, c/o ESA Management, LLC, 11525 North
Community House Road, Charlotte, North Carolina 28277 (Telephone No. (980) 345-1653) (Telecopy No. (980) 345-2090), at the address of Borrower set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter
designated by Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. None of any Loan Party or any Indemnitee shall have any liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out
of, in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however, that nothing contained in
this sentence will limit the indemnity and reimbursement obligations of Borrower set forth in this Section. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission
systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 10.6
Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that
(i) Borrower may not (except as expressly provided in Section 7.4(d) assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by
Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 

  
 -110- 








 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may
assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior
written consent of: 
 (A) Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that
(i) Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days after having received notice thereof and (ii) no
consent of Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 
 (ii) Assignments
shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate
of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Term Commitments or the entire remaining principal outstanding balance of the assigning Lender’s Loans, the amount of the Term
Commitments or 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)
shall not be less than $5,000,000 and in whole integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of Borrower shall be required if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 

(B) no assignment shall be made to (1) Parent, any Group Member or any Subsidiary of any of the foregoing (other than
pursuant to Section 10.6(h)), (2) a natural Person or (3) any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the Persons described in clause (1) or (2) above; 

(C) no assignments shall be made to Disqualified Institutions; 

(D) (1) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption,
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (2) the assigning Lender shall have paid in full any amounts owing by it to the Administrative Agent; and 

(E) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in
which the Assignee 

  
 -111- 








 
designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or
their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in
making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an
affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 2.17,
2.18, 2.19 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 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 (c) of this Section. 
 (iv) The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices 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 Term Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) 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 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 Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the
Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment
required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless
it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

  
 -112- 








 (c) Any Lender may, without the consent of Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than (x) a natural person, (y) a Disqualified Institution or (z) the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates other than a Sponsor Affiliated Institutional
Lender (a “Participant”)) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that, (A) such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of
the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such
Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under
Section 2.18(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.20 and 2.21 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section, and
(B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.17 or 2.18, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement
to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to
cooperate with Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.20 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it
were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a
register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any
Term Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Term Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the
owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no


  
 -113- 








 
responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. Borrower and the Lenders expressly acknowledge that the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such or as an arranger, bookrunner or other
agent hereunder) shall not have any obligation to monitor whether participations are made to Disqualified Institutions or natural persons and none of Borrower or the Lenders will bring any claim to such effect. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(e) Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate
transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above. 
 (f) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or
transfer all or a portion of its Loans owing to it (provided, however, that each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan) to any Sponsor
Affiliated Lender on a non pro rata basis through (x) one or more modified Dutch auctions (“Auctions”) (provided that, (A) notice of the Auction shall be made to all Lenders and (B) the Auction shall be
conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Auction Manager may establish which are consistent with the Auction Procedures set forth on Exhibit P and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Sponsor Affiliated Lender, the Auction Manager and the
Administrative Agent) or (y) open market purchases, in each case subject to the following additional limitations: 
 (i)
the aggregate principal amount of Loans purchased by assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(f) and held at any one time by Sponsor Affiliated Lenders may not exceed 25% of the outstanding principal amount of all Loans (after giving effect to
any simultaneous cancellations); 
 (ii) the assigning Lender and the Sponsor Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s
Loans shall execute and deliver to the Auction Manager or Administrative Agent, as applicable, an Affiliate Assignment Agreement; 

(iii) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliate Assignment
Agreement shall provide, that such Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall have no right whatsoever so long as such Person is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender: 

(A) to vote with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document requiring the consent of Required Lenders and that it shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender with respect to such Required Lender votes without discretion in the same proportion as the
allocation 

  
 -114- 








 
of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) such assignee shall be permitted to vote if
such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action disproportionately affects such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders, (y) no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other
action shall, without the consent of the Sponsor Affiliated Lender, deprive any Sponsor Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, such assignee shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification,
waiver, consent or other such action requires the consent of any Lender or any affected lender; 
 (B) to attend (or receive
any notice of) any meeting, conference call or correspondence with Administrative Agent or any Lender not attended by (or noticed to) any Loan Party, their Affiliates or any Person on behalf of or representing any of the foregoing or receive any
information from Administrative Agent or any other Lender not provided to the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or any Person on behalf of or representing any of the foregoing (other than notices of borrowings, prepayments and other administrative
notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Section 2); or 
 (C) to
make or bring any claim, solely in its capacity as Lender, against Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender solely with respect to the duties of such Persons under the Loan Documents (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that
such Sponsor Affiliated Lender may make or bring a claim for breach of this Agreement); and 
 (iv) each Sponsor Affiliated
Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby further agrees that if any Loan Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law: 

(A) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in such proceeding to
object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that to which Administrative Agent has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by
Borrower or any equity or debt financing to be made to Borrower), including, without limitation, the filing of any pleading by Administrative Agent) in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as Administrative Agent is not
taking any action to treat such Sponsor Affiliated Lender’s Loans in a manner that is less favorable to such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in any respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders (including, without
limitation, objecting to any debtor-in-possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization); 

(B) the provisions set forth in this Section 10.6(f), and the related provisions set forth in each Affiliate Assignment
Agreement, constitute (x) a 

  
 -115- 








 
“subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable to the maximum extent
permitted by applicable non-bankruptcy law for all purposes in any case where a Loan Party has filed for protection under any Debtor Relief Laws and affecting the rights of creditors generally applicable to such Loan Party and (y) an
irrevocable voting proxy coupled with a pledge in favor of Administrative Agent with respect to voting obligations set forth in this Section 10.6(f), and the related provisions set forth in each Affiliate Assignment Agreement; 

(C) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have voted in such proceedings in the same proportion as the allocation
of voting with respect to such matter by those Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, except (i) to the extent that any plan under the Bankruptcy Code proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in a manner
that is less favorable to such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in any respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders or (ii) to the extent set forth in Section 10.6(f). For the avoidance of doubt, except to
the extent set forth in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender) to vote on behalf of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender or consent on behalf of such
Sponsor Affiliated Lender in any such proceedings with respect to any and all claims of such Sponsor Affiliated Lender relating to the Obligations. Each Sponsor Affiliated Lender agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing constitutes an
irrevocable proxy in favor of the Administrative Agent to vote or consent on behalf of such Sponsor Affiliate Lender in any proceeding in the manner set forth above and that such Sponsor Affiliate Lender shall be irrevocably bound to any such votes
made or consents given and further shall not challenge or otherwise object to such votes or consents and shall not itself vote or provide consents in the proceeding; and 

(D) each Sponsor Affiliated Lender hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders any principles or provisions of law (including as set forth in any Debtor Relief Law, statutory or otherwise) which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Section 10.6(f) and any legal or equitable discharge of such Sponsor
Affiliated Lender’s obligations under Section 10.6(f). 
 (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may, at any time, assign
all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Loans to any Sponsor Affiliate Institutional Lender on a non-pro rata basis through (x) Auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with
the Auction Procedures or (y) open market purchases, provided that for any vote requiring the consent of the Required Lenders, Sponsor Affiliate Institutional Lender shall not, in the aggregate, account for more than 49.9% of the amounts
included in determining whether such consent or waiver has been obtained. 

  
 -116- 








 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.6 or any other
provision of this Agreement, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its Term Commitments or Loans owing to
it to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereto on a non-pro rata basis (provided, however, that each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan), subject to
the following limitations: 
 (i) Such Loan Party or Subsidiary may conduct one or more Auctions to repurchase all or any
portion of the Loans; provided that, (A) notice of the Auction shall be made to all Lenders and (B) the Auction shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Auction Manager may establish which are consistent with this
Section 10.6(h) and the Auction Procedures set forth on Exhibit P and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to such Loan Party or Subsidiary thereto, the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent; 

(ii) With respect to all repurchases made by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereto pursuant to this Section 10.6(h),
(A) such Loan Party or Subsidiary shall deliver to the Auction Manager a certificate of an authorized officer stating that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such repurchase and (B) the assigning Lender
and the applicable Loan Party or Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Auction Manager or Administrative Agent, as applicable, an Affiliate Assignment Agreement; and 

(iii) Following repurchase by such Loan Party or Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 10.6(h), the Loans so repurchased
shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by such Loan Party or Subsidiary), for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents, including, but not
limited to (A) the making of, or the application of, any payments to the Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (B) the making of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or (C) the determination of Required Lenders, or for any similar or related purpose, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. In connection with any Loans repurchased and cancelled pursuant to this
Section 10.6(h), Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any such cancellation. 

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order expressly provides for payments to be
allocated to a particular Lender, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to Section 10.6),
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 8.1(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment
to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing
to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be 

  
 -117- 








 
necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion
of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without notice to Borrower, any
such notice being expressly waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by Borrower (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such
Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute
or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender, any affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Borrower and
the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application. 

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to 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 jurisdiction. 
 10.10 Integration. With the exception of those terms contained in Sections 2, 3, 4
(including Annex A), 6, 7 and 8 of the Engagement Letter, dated May 26, 2014, among the Lead Arrangers and Borrower (the “Engagement Letter”), which by the terms of the Engagement Letter remain in full force and effect, this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or
warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

  
 -118- 








 10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of Borrower, the Administrative Agent and
the Lenders hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
 (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in New York County, the courts of
the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 
 (b) consents that any such action or
proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not
to plead or claim the same; 
 (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof
by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have
been notified pursuant thereto; and 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other
manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to sue or bring an enforcement action relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any such action or proceeding in connection with
the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral, in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.13 Acknowledgements. Borrower hereby
acknowledges that: 
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents; 
 (b) none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Syndication Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Joint Bookrunner has any
fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and the Loan Parties, on
the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; 
 (c) each of the Administrative Agent, any
Lender, any Syndication Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Joint Bookrunner and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates; and 

(d) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby
among the Lenders or among the Loan Parties and the Lenders. 
 10.14 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other 

  
 -119- 








 
amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”)
that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof,
shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and
Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of
repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 10.15 Releases of Liens. At such time as the Loans and the other obligations
under the Loan Documents shall have been paid in full and the Term Commitments have been terminated, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Collateral Documents, and the Collateral Documents and all obligations (other than
those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Collateral Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 

10.16 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided
to it by any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement that is designated by the provider thereof as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent
or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate thereof, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with the provisions of this Section, to any actual or prospective
Transferee or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of any of its
affiliates, (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (f) if requested
or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a breach of this Section, (h) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any
similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, (i) in connection with the exercise of
any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (j) to another party to this Agreement, (k) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to
preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from any Agent or any Lender, (l) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP
numbers with respect to the Loans, (m) upon the request or demand of any regulatory or quasi-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or any of its Affiliates, (n) if agreed by Borrower in its sole discretion,
to any other Person or (o) to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of


  
 -120- 








 
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided that, such disclosure is limited to the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement; provided that, except
with respect to any audit or examination by bank accountants or by any governmental bank regulatory authority or other Governmental Authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall, to
the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, use reasonable efforts to promptly notify Borrower of disclosure pursuant to clauses (d), (e), (f) or (h), above. Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so in accordance with its customary procedures if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that
information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has
developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

 All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the
course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities.
Accordingly, each Lender represents to Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with
its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 
 10.17 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL.

obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower and the other Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Borrower
and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE 

[Provided Separately] 







 EXECUTION VERSION 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Guarantee”), dated as of
June 23, 2014, made by each of the entities signatory hereto (each a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of the Administrative Agent (as defined below) for the ratable benefit of the
Guaranteed Parties (as defined below). 
 W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, ESH Hospitality, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), has entered into that certain Credit Agreement,
dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms not defined herein but defined therein being used herein as therein defined), among the
Borrower, the Lenders party thereto, and Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as Administrative Agent (hereinafter, the “Administrative Agent”); 

WHEREAS, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are herein referred to as the “Guaranteed Parties”; 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect economic and other benefit from the Loans under the Credit Agreement; and

 WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make Loans under the Credit Agreement that the Guarantors shall
have executed and delivered this Guarantee; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Lenders to make Loans, and
for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 

SECTION 1. Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and prompt payment when due, whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of (a) the Obligations, whether now or hereafter existing and whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, (b) any and all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Guarantee, including the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) and (c) all present and future amounts that would become due but for
the operation of any provision of bankruptcy or insolvency laws, and all present and future accrued and unpaid interest, including, without limitation, all post-petition interest if the Borrower or any Guarantor voluntarily or involuntarily becomes
subject to any Debtor Relief Law (the items set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) immediately above being herein referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Upon failure of the Borrower to pay any of the Guaranteed
Obligations when due after the expiration of any applicable notice and/or cure period in each case provided for in the Loan Documents (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), each Guarantor hereby further agrees to promptly pay
the same after such Guarantor’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s failure to pay the same, without any other demand or notice whatsoever, 







 
including without limitation, any notice having been given to any Guarantor of either the acceptance by the Guaranteed Parties of this Guarantee or the creation or incurrence of any of the
Obligations. This Guarantee is an absolute guarantee of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and not a guarantee of collection, meaning that it is not necessary for the Guaranteed Parties, in order to enforce payment by the Guarantor, first or
contemporaneously to accelerate payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, to institute suit or exhaust any rights against the Borrower, or to enforce any rights against any collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan
Document to the contrary, in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law or any state or federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if, as a result of applicable law
relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, including Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively,
“Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 1 would otherwise, after giving effect to (x) all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant
under such Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Guarantor in respect of intercompany Indebtedness to the Borrower to the extent that such Indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount
paid by such Guarantor hereunder) and (y) the value of the assets of such Guarantor (as determined under the applicable provisions of such Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar
rights held by such Guarantor pursuant to applicable requirements of law or any other contractual obligations providing for an equitable allocation among such Guarantor and other Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Borrower of obligations arising
under this Guarantee or other guaranties of the Obligations by such parties, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under this
Section 1, then the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Guaranteed Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not
subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. 
 SECTION 2. Guarantee Absolute. Each
Guarantor guaranties that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, without set-off or counterclaim, and regardless of any applicable law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction
affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Guaranteed Parties with respect thereto. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 

 

	 	(a)	any lack of validity or enforceability of any provision of any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating to any Loan Document or avoidance or subordination of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;


  

	 	(b)	any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, or any increase in the amount of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of any term of, or any consent
to departure from any requirement of, the Loan Documents; 

  

	 	(c)	any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on any collateral for, or any release of the Borrower or amendment or waiver of any term of any other guarantee of, or any consent to departure from any requirement of
any other guarantee of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 


  
 2 









	 	(d)	the absence of any attempt to collect any of the Guaranteed Obligations from the Borrower or any other action to enforce the same or the election of any remedy by any of the Guaranteed Parties; 


 

	 	(e)	any waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by any of the Guaranteed Parties with respect to any provision of any other Loan Document; 


 

	 	(f)	the election by any of the Guaranteed Parties in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 

  

	 	(g)	any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Borrower, as debtor-in-possession, under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

  

	 	(h)	any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Borrower or the Guarantor other than payment or performance of the Obligations. 


SECTION 3. Waiver. 
  

	 	(a)	Each Guarantor hereby (i) waives (A) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any and all other notices, including, without limitation, notice of intent to accelerate and notice of acceleration, with
respect to any of the Obligations or this Guarantee, (B) any requirement that any of the Guaranteed Parties protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest in or other Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take
any action against the Borrower or any other Person or any collateral, (C) the filing of any claim with a court in the event of receivership or bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other Person, (D) except as otherwise provided herein,
protest or notice with respect to nonpayment of all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (E) the benefit of any statute of limitations, (F) all demands whatsoever (and any requirement that demand be made on the Borrower or any other
Person as a condition precedent to the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder), (G) all rights by which the Guarantor might be entitled to require suit on an accrued right of action in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or require
suit against the Borrower or any other Person, (H) any defense based upon an election of remedies by any Guaranteed Party, or (I) notice of any events or circumstances set forth in clauses (a) through (h) of Section 2
hereof; and (ii) covenants and agrees that, except as otherwise agreed by the parties, this Guarantee will not be discharged except (A) by complete payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligations of the Guarantors contained
herein or (B) in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 


  
 3 









	 	(b)	If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, any of the Guaranteed Parties shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including, without limitation, its right to enter a deficiency judgment against the
Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable law pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Guarantor hereby consents to such action by such Guaranteed Party and waives any claim based upon such action. Any
election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of such Guaranteed Party to seek a deficiency judgment against the Borrower shall not impair the obligation of any Guarantor to pay the full amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any other obligation of such Guarantor contained herein. 

  

	 	(c)	In the event any of the Guaranteed Parties shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law, under any of the Loan Documents, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law,
such Guaranteed Party may bid all or less than the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations and the amount of such bid, if successful, need not be paid by such Guaranteed Party but shall be credited against the Guaranteed Obligations. 


 

	 	(d)	Each Guarantor agrees that, notwithstanding the foregoing and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Guaranteed Parties are
prevented by applicable law from exercising their respective rights to accelerate the maturity of the Guaranteed Obligations, to collect interest on the Guaranteed Obligations, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the Administrative Agent is prevented from taking any action to realize on any collateral, such Guarantor agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Guaranteed Parties, upon demand therefor, the
amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Guaranteed Parties. 

  

	 	(e)	Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations or
any part thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Guaranteed Parties shall have no duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to any of the Guaranteed Parties regarding such condition or any such
circumstance. In the event that any of the Guaranteed Parties in its sole discretion undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to any Guarantor, such Guaranteed Party shall be under no obligation (i) to
undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (ii) to disclose any information which, pursuant to accepted or reasonable banking or commercial finance practices, such Guaranteed Party wishes to maintain as
confidential, or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such information or any other information to any Guarantor. 

  

	 	(f)	Each Guarantor consents and agrees that the Guaranteed Parties shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of such Guarantor or otherwise in connection with obtaining payment of any or all of the
Guaranteed Obligations from any Person or source.

 SECTION 4. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guarantee nor
consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, approved by the Required Lenders (or by all of the Lenders where the approval of each Lender is required under the Credit
Agreement) and signed by the Administrative Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 

SECTION 5. Addresses for Notices. All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be effectuated in the manner
provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement, provided that if a notice or communication hereunder is sent to any Guarantor, said notice shall be addressed to such Guarantor, in care of the Borrower. 

SECTION 6. No Waiver; Remedies. 
  

	 	(a)	No failure on the part of any Guaranteed Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable law or by any of the other Loan Documents. 


 

	 	(b)	No waiver by the Guaranteed Parties of any Default shall operate as a waiver of any other Default or the same Default on a future occasion, and no action by any of the Guaranteed Parties permitted hereunder shall in way
affect or impair any of the rights of the Guaranteed Parties or the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guarantee or under any of the other Loan Documents, except as specifically set forth in any such waiver. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any principal and/or interest or other amount constituting any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusive and binding on each Guarantor irrespective of
whether such Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such determination was made provided that the Borrower was a party thereto. 


SECTION 7. Right of Set-off. To the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Guarantees
Parties provided by law, each Guaranteed Party shall have the right, without notice to any Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Guarantor to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Guaranteed Obligations becoming due
and payable by any such Guarantor (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Guaranteed Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional
or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Guaranteed Party, any affiliate
thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor. Each Guaranteed Party shall promptly notify the Guarantors and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Guaranteed
Party, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application. The rights of each Guaranteed Party under this Section 7 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without
limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Guaranteed Party may have. 

  
 5 








 SECTION 8. Continuing Guarantee; Release Date; Transfer of Notes. This Guarantee is a
continuing guarantee and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until (the date of such occurrence, the “Release Date”) payment in full of all of the Loans and other Obligations, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its
permitted successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Guaranteed Parties and their respective successors, permitted transferees, and permitted assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing
clause (c), each of the Guaranteed Parties may assign or otherwise transfer any Note held by it or the Guaranteed Obligations owed to it to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the rights in respect thereof
granted to such Guaranteed Party herein or otherwise with respect to such of the Notes and the Guaranteed Obligations so transferred or assigned, subject, however, to compliance with the provisions of Section 10.6 of the Credit Agreement in
respect of assignments. No Guarantor may assign any of its obligations under this Guarantee without first obtaining the written consent of the Lenders as set forth in the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 9. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be
filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan
Party’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to
applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligees of the Obligations or such part thereof, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer,” or otherwise, all as
though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment or any part thereof is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Guaranteed Obligations shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed
reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 
 SECTION 10. Representations and Warranties.
Each Guarantor hereby makes for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and each of the other Guaranteed Parties each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement to the extent any such representation or warranty applies
to such Guarantor. 
 SECTION 11. Covenants. 
  

	 	(a)	Each Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent and each of the other Guaranteed Parties that, until the Release Date, such Guarantor shall comply with each of the covenants set forth in the
Credit Agreement to the extent that any such covenant applies to such Guarantor. 


  
 6 









	 	(b)	Each Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent and each of the other Guaranteed Parties that, from and after the date of this Guarantee until the Release Date, if any Guarantor shall at any
time acquire any Domestic Subsidiary which is not a Guarantor hereunder and is required to become a Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.10(b) of the Credit Agreement, such Guarantor and such Subsidiary shall promptly deliver to the Administrative
Agent an addendum to this Guarantee, substantially in the form of Exhibit A to this Guarantee, duly completed. 

 SECTION 12.
Subrogation and Subordination. 
  

	 	(a)	Subrogation. Notwithstanding any reference to subrogation contained herein to the contrary, until the Release Date, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably agrees not to assert any claim or other rights which it may
have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution, indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Guaranteed Party against the Borrower or any collateral which any Guaranteed Party now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or
right arises in equity, or under contract, statutes or common law, including without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or
security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to
such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for the benefit of, the Guaranteed Parties, and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that the agreement set forth in this
Section 12 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

  

	 	(b)	Subordination. All debt and other liabilities of the Borrower to any or all of the Guarantors (“Borrower Debt”) are expressly subordinate and junior to the Guaranteed Obligations and any
instruments evidencing the Borrower Debt to the extent provided below. 

 (i) Until the Release Date, each
Guarantor agrees that it will not request, demand, accept, or receive (by set-off or other manner) any payment amount, credit or reduction of all or any part of the amounts owing under the Borrower Debt or any security therefor, except as
specifically allowed pursuant to clause (ii) below. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (i) above, the
Borrower may pay to a Guarantor, and such Guarantor may request, demand, accept and receive and retain from the Borrower, payments, credits or reductions of all or any part of the amounts owing under the Borrower Debt or any security therefor on the
Borrower Debt, provided that the Borrower’s right to pay and such Guarantor’s right to receive any such amount 

  
 7 








 
shall automatically and be immediately suspended and cease (A) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default or (B) if, after taking into account the effect of
such payment, an Event of Default would occur and be continuing. Each Guarantor’s right to receive amounts under this clause (ii) (including any amounts which theretofore may have been suspended) shall automatically be reinstated at such
time as the Event of Default which was the basis of such suspension has been cured or waived (provided that no subsequent Event of Default has occurred) or such earlier date, if any, as the Administrative Agent gives notice to such Guarantor of
reinstatement by the Required Lenders, in the Required Lenders’ sole discretion. 
 (iii) If any Guarantor receives any
payment on the Borrower Debt in violation of this Guarantee, such Guarantor will hold such payment in trust for the Guaranteed Parties and will promptly deliver such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

(iv) In the event of the commencement or joinder of any suit, action or proceeding of any type (judicial or otherwise) or
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law against the Borrower (an “Insolvency Proceeding”) and subject to court orders issued pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, the Guaranteed Obligations shall first be paid and discharged in full
before any payment is made upon the Borrower Debt notwithstanding any other provisions which may be made in such Insolvency Proceeding. In the event of any Insolvency Proceeding, each Guarantor will at any time (A) file, at the request of any
Guaranteed Party, any claim, proof of claim or similar instrument necessary to enforce the Borrower’s obligation to pay the Borrower Debt, and (B) hold in trust for and pay to the Guaranteed Parties any and all monies, obligations,
property, stock dividends or other assets received in any such proceeding on account of the Borrower Debt in order that the Guaranteed Parties may apply such monies or the cash proceeds of such other assets to the Obligations. 

SECTION 13. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that, to the extent a Guarantor shall have paid more than its
proportionate share of any payment made hereunder or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate
share of such payment. The provisions of this Section 13 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 12. The provisions of this Section 13 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the
Administrative Agent and the Guaranteed Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Guaranteed Parties for the full amount guaranteed by it hereunder. 

SECTION 14. GOVERNING LAW. THIS GUARANTEE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE GUARANTEED PARTIES AND THE GUARANTORS SHALL BE GOVERNED
BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION 15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH
GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS GUARANTEE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. 

  
 8 








 SECTION 16. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally: 
  

	 	(a)	submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect
thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 


 

	 	(b)	consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or
proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

  

	 	(c)	agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, in accordance with
Section 5; and 

  

	 	(d)	agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of any Guaranteed Party to sue or bring an enforcement action relating to this
Guarantee or any other Loan Document, including any such action or proceeding in connection with the exercise of remedies with respect to the Collateral, in any other jurisdiction. 


SECTION 17. Section Titles. The Section titles contained in this Guarantee are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of
any kind whatsoever and are not a part of this Guarantee. 
 SECTION 18. Execution in Counterparts. This Guarantee may be executed in
any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Guarantee. 

SECTION 19. Miscellaneous. 
  

	 	(a)	All references herein to the Borrower or to any Guarantor shall include their respective successors and assigns, including, without limitation, a receiver, trustee or debtor-in-possession of or for the Borrower or such
Guarantor. All references to the singular shall be deemed to include the plural where the context so requires. 

  

	 	(b)	All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder shall be (i) made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Guaranteed Party to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s
office set forth in the Credit Agreement in Dollars and in immediately available funds and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement. 


  
 9 








 SECTION 20. Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee which is for any reason
prohibited or found or held invalid or unenforceable by any court or governmental agency shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity or unenforceability, without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in such
jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 21. ENTIRE
AGREEMENT. TOGETHER WITH THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THIS GUARANTEE REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES REGARDING THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREIN AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS
BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. 
 SECTION 22. Conflicts. If in the event of a
conflict between the terms and conditions of this Guarantee and the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall control.

 SECURITY AGREEMENT 

This SECURITY AGREEMENT dated as of June 23, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time
in accordance with the provisions hereof, this “Agreement”) is made by ESH HOSPITALITY, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”) and the subsidiary guarantors from to time to time party hereto (the
“Subsidiary Guarantors”), as pledgors, assignors and debtors (the Borrower, together with the Subsidiary Guarantors, in such capacities and together with any successors in such capacities, the “Pledgors,” and each,
a “Pledgor”), in favor of GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA, in its capacity as administrative agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined) (in such capacity and together with any successors in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”) for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement referenced below). 

R E C I T A L S: 

A. ESH Hospitality, Inc., as borrower, the Administrative Agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. and J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC, as joint lead arrangers, syndication agents and joint bookrunners, and the lending institutions party thereto as lenders (the “Lenders”) have, in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, entered
into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). 

B. Each Subsidiary Guarantor is a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Borrower and has unconditionally guaranteed the Obligations (as defined
in the Credit Agreement) pursuant to that certain Subsidiary Guarantee, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Subsidiary Guarantee”) by and among
the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative Agent. 
 C. The Borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the
“Revolver Agent”), and the lenders, including the issuing lender and the swingline lender, party thereto, are parties to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2013, as amended pursuant to the First Amendment
to Credit Agreement, dated June 23, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Existing REIT Credit Facility”), under which the lenders party thereto have agreed, on
certain terms and subject to certain conditions, to make loans and other extensions of credit to the Borrower. 
 D. The Borrower, the
Revolver Agent and the Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Intercreditor Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor
Agreement”), which agreement, among other things, sets forth, as between the Administrative Agent and the Revolver Agent, the relative priority of their respective Liens on the Collateral and their rights with respect thereto. 

E. The Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor will receive substantial benefits from the execution, delivery and performance of the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and the extensions of credit from time to time made to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and each is, therefore, willing to enter into this Agreement. 







 F. This Agreement is given by each Pledgor in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit
of the Secured Parties to secure the payment and performance of all of the Obligations. 
 G. It is a condition to the obligations of the
Lenders to make extensions of credit under the Credit Agreement that each Pledgor execute and deliver the applicable Loan Documents, including this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are
hereby acknowledged, each Pledgor and the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

(other than an Exempt Deposit Account and Deposit Accounts that are held internally at the Administrative Agent) unless such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered to the
Administrative Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account within 15 Business Days of establishing such Deposit Account (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion).
The Administrative Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Administrative Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor
with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 (c) Securities
Accounts and Commodity Accounts. Schedule 3.4(c) hereto lists each Securities Account and Commodities Account of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor shall enter into and cause the applicable Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary to
enter into a Control Agreement with the Administrative Agent with respect to each Securities Account or Commodity Account listed on Schedule 3.4(c). No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account
with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities
Account or Commodity Account within 15 Business Days of establishing such Securities Account or Commodity Account (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion), as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall

Administrative Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any
withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, would occur, or unless otherwise permitted pursuant to the Credit
Agreement. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Administrative Agent and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolver Agent. As between the Administrative Agent and the
Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession
of, or maintained as a Security Entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the Control of, the Administrative Agent, a Securities Intermediary, a Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person. 

(d) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. As of the date hereof, no amount under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral is

Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction) other than such Electronic Chattel Paper and transferable records listed in Schedule 3.4(d) hereto. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral

Administrative Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Administrative Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control under Section 201 of the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The requirement in the preceding
sentence shall not apply to the extent that such 

  
 -10- 








 
amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record in which the Administrative Agent has not been vested control within the meaning of the
statutes described in the immediately preceding sentence, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. The Administrative Agent agrees with such Pledgor that the Administrative Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Administrative Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, unless
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record.

commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the
Administrative Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such letter of credit. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that perfection is achieved by filing a financing statement under the UCC or the amount of
any such letter of credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other letters of credit for which the actions described above in clause (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

 (f) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any
event, within thirty (30) days) notify the Administrative Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Administrative Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all
upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort
Claim, together with the amount of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in which the Administrative Agent does not have a security interest, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 

Section 3.6. Joinder of Additional Pledgors. The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower which, from time to time, after the

substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto, in each case, within thirty (30) days of the date on which it was acquired or created (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion). Upon
such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor herein.
The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new
Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement.  
 Section 3.7. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor
shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Administrative Agent may in its reasonable
judgment deem necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the  

  
 -11- 








 
security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to
assure and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with
respect to any Pledged Collateral, including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security
interest created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States
Copyright Office) wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to
the Administrative Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any
Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the Administrative Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or advisable to prevent any impairment of the security interest in or the perfection thereof in the Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing
shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors.

Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on the Pledged Collateral will at all times constitute a perfected, continuing security interest therein, prior to all other Liens on the Pledged Collateral except for Permitted Prior Liens and
except as permitted by the Intercreditor Agreement.  
 Section 4.3. Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral.
Subject to the Loan Documents, each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon
granted to the Administrative Agent and the priority thereof against all claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party other
than Permitted Liens. 
 Section 4.4. Other Financing Statements. It has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file, any
valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral, except such as have been
filed in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to such Permitted Lien. No Pledgor shall execute or authorize to be filed in any public office any financing statement
(or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and
covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor to any holder of Permitted Liens.

date hereof have been, and to the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable to
the extent applicable. There is no amount or other obligation owing by any Pledgor to any issuer of the Pledged Securities in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Pledged Securities or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a
member of any issuer of the Pledged Securities. 
 Section 4.6. Consents, etc. In the event that the Administrative Agent desires
to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or
consents of any Governmental Authority or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, such Pledgor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Administrative Agent to obtain as soon
as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers. 
 Section 4.7. Pledged
Collateral. All information set forth herein, including the schedules hereto, is accurate and complete in all material respects. The Pledged Collateral described on the schedules hereto constitutes all of the property of such type of Pledged

 Section 4.8. Insurance. 

(a) None of the Pledged Collateral of any Pledgor constitutes an interest or claim in or under any policy of insurance or contract for annuity,
except to the extent the same constitutes Proceeds. 
 (b) The Pledgors shall maintain the property and liability insurance specified in
Sections 4.19 and 6.6 of the Credit Agreement (including paying all premiums in respect thereof), and shall provide certificates to the Administrative Agent setting forth the coverage, the limits of liability, the name of the carrier, the policy
number, and the period of coverage. Such insurance certificates shall be accompanied by endorsements of the related insurance policies which endorsements shall (except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent in its discretion) (i) name
the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, as lender loss payee, in the case of property or casualty insurance, and as an additional insured, in the case of liability insurance, as its interests may appear and
(ii) provide that no cancellation thereof shall be effective until at least thirty (30) days after receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice thereof. 

(c) In the event that the net cash proceeds of any insurance claim are paid to any Pledgor after the Administrative Agent has exercised its
right to foreclose after an Event of Default, such proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and promptly after receipt thereof shall be, subject to the terms of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, paid to the
Administrative Agent for application in accordance with the Loan Documents.

 ARTICLE VI 

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL 

Section 6.1. Intellectual Property Collateral Schedule; Grant of Intellectual Property License. Each item of registered Intellectual
Property Collateral (and applications therefor) of each Pledgor is set forth on Schedule 6.1 hereto. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under
ARTICLE VIII hereof at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, during the continuance of an Event
of Default, to the extent it has the legal right to do so, an irrevocable (until the termination of this Agreement; provided that any sublicenses granted by the Administrative Agent during such period shall continue for their term as direct
licenses from the relevant Pledgor) and nonexclusive license to use, 

  
 -15- 








 
assign, license or sublicense and otherwise exploit any of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license
shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. 

Section 6.2. After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time after the date hereof obtain
any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property
Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clause (other than Excluded Property) shall automatically constitute
Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Each
Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event no less frequently than quarterly with submission of the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(b) of the Credit Agreement) provide to the Administrative Agent written notice of any
registrations of or applications to register the foregoing and, at the Administrative Agent’s request, confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any of the foregoing by execution of an instrument in
form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, preserve, protect or perfect the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual
Property Collateral. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Administrative Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 6.1 to include any Intellectual Property Collateral of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date hereof.

 Section 6.3. Litigation. Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall have the right to
commence and prosecute in its own name and in accordance with its reasonable business judgment, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of the Intellectual
Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or bring suit in the name
of any Pledgor, the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, do any
and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by the Administrative Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent for all costs and expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.3 in accordance with the Loan Documents. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall elect not to bring suit as permitted pursuant to this
Section 6.3 to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, to take all commercially
reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral by any
person.

 ARTICLE VII 

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING RECEIVABLES 

Section 7.1. Maintenance of Records. Each Pledgor shall keep and maintain at its own cost and expense complete records of each Receivable,
in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon and all other documentation relating thereto. Each Pledgor shall, at such Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, upon the
Administrative Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Receivables, including all documents evidencing Receivables and any books and records
relating thereto to the Administrative Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Pledgor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent
may transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor’s books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings relating to the Receivables to and for the use by any person that has acquired or is contemplating acquisition
of an interest in the Receivables or the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor. 

Section 7.2. Pledgors Remain Liable under Receivables and Contracts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Pledgor shall
remain liable under each of the Receivables and Contracts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Receivable
and in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions of each such Contract. None of the Secured Parties shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or under any Contract by reason of
or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any payment relating to such Receivable or Contract pursuant hereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in
any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Pledgor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or under or pursuant to any Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency
of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) or under any Contract, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or
to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times. 
 Section 7.3.
Communication with and Notice to Receivable Obligors and Contracting Parties. 
 The Administrative Agent in its own name or in
the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with account debtors on the Receivables and parties to the Contracts to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s
satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Pledgor shall notify account debtors on the
Receivables and parties to the Contracts that the Receivables and the Contracts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent on behalf and for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly
to the Administrative Agent. Such notification shall be accomplished by each Pledgor by: 
 (i) notifying the account debtor of such
assignment of proceeds and giving irrevocable instructions to pay the proceeds, without offset or counterclaim or, in the event there is an existing netting agreement with such account debtor, the net proceeds to a Deposit Account subject to a
Control Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent; or 
 (ii) causing the account debtor to send the Administrative Agent written
confirmation that such account debtor shall pay the proceeds to a Deposit Account designated by the Administrative Agent without offset or counterclaim or, in the event there is an existing netting agreement with such account debtor, that the net
proceeds shall be paid to such account; or 

  
 -17- 








 (iii) entering a valid, enforceable written agreement with the account debtor relating to the
assignment of proceeds, containing irrevocable payment instructions for account debtor to pay the proceeds to a Deposit Account designated by the Administrative Agent without offset or counterclaim or, in the event there is an existing netting
agreement with such account debtor, that the net proceeds shall be paid to such account. 
 At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, (a) the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion, shall determine whether each Pledgor has satisfactorily performed the notification of assignment of the proceeds, and (b) in the event the Administrative
Agent determines that such notification has not been satisfactorily performed, the Administrative Agent may, upon written notice to such Pledgor, give written notification of the assignment of proceeds to the account debtor, indicating the
Lenders’ reliance on the account debtor to pay proceeds without offset or counterclaim or, in the event there is an existing netting agreement with such account debtor, the net proceeds to the Deposit Account designated by the Administrative
Agent. 
 Section 7.4. Collections on Receivables. The Administrative Agent hereby authorizes each Pledgor to collect such Pledgor’s
Receivables, subject to the Administrative Agent’s direction and control, and the Administrative Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. If required by
the Administrative Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Pledgor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two (2) Business
Days) deposited by such Pledgor in the exact form received, duly endorsed by such Pledgor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a special collateral account maintained by the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Secured Parties only, as hereinafter provided, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Pledgor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such
Pledgor. Each such deposit of any Proceeds constituting collections of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in such deposit. All Proceeds constituting
collections of Receivables while held by the Administrative Agent (or by any Pledgor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations and shall not constitute
payment thereof until applied as hereinafter provided. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent shall apply all or any part of the funds
on deposit in said collateral account on account of the Obligations in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, and any part of such funds which the Administrative Agent elects not so to apply and deems not required as collateral security
for the Obligations shall be paid over from time to time by the Administrative Agent to the Pledgors or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. At the Administrative Agent’s request, each Pledgor shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to such Pledgor’s Receivables, including, without limitation, all original orders, invoices and shipping
receipts.  
 Section 7.5. Certain Government Receivables. With respect to Receivables or Contracts, in each case, that constitute
Pledged Collateral, to which the counterparty or obligor is a Governmental Authority, such Pledgor shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after the request by the Administrative Agent, take any commercially reasonable actions under the Assignment
of Claims Act of 1940, as amended from time to time (31 U.S.C. §3723, et seq.) or any similar law required to permit or approve the assignment of the rights to payment thereunder or thereon to the Administrative Agent on behalf
of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

 ARTICLE VIII 

REMEDIES 
 Section 8.1.
Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may from time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for
herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies:  
  

	(i)	Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice
or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and
remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor; 


 

	(ii)	Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other
obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Administrative Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle,
extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such
Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the
Administrative Agent; 

  

	(iii)	Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 

  

	(iv)	Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Administrative Agent at any place or places so designated by the Administrative Agent, in
which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Administrative Agent and therewith delivered to the Administrative Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged
Collateral so delivered to the Administrative Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Administrative Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as
shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 8.1(iv) is of the essence. Upon application to a
court of equity having jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 

  

	(v)	Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Obligations as provided
in ARTICLE IX hereof; 

  

	(vi)	Retain and apply the Distributions to the Obligations as provided in ARTICLE IX hereof; 


  
 -19- 









	(vii)	Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any
Pledged Collateral; and 

  

	(viii)	Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, and the Administrative Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 8.2 hereof, sell,
assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit
or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the
purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged
Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each
purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any ride of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without
further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and
does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 

 Section 8.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges
and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time
after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a
statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 
 Section 8.3. Waiver of Notice and
Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing in connection with the Administrative Agent’s taking possession or the Administrative Agent’s disposition of the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the
Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any
incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization
upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor
and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. 

  
 -20- 








 Section 8.4. Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. 

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the
Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be
at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), and applicable state securities laws, the Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among
other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on
terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such
circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any
Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if
such issuer would agree to do so. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to
all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and
will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including
registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority.
Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Administrative Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to
the Administrative Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities
Collateral to indemnify the Administrative Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a
material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 

  
 -21- 








 (d) If the Administrative Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral
or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Administrative Agent all such information as the Administrative Agent may request in order to determine the number of securities included in
the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Administrative Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in
effect. 
 (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8.4 will cause irreparable injury to
the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this
Section 8.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 Section 8.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Administrative Agent
in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Administrative Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 
 (b) In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have instituted any
proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been
determined adversely to the Administrative Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the
Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 8.6. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
upon the written demand of the Administrative Agent, each Pledgor shall, at the Administrative Agent’s request, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights
and Goodwill and such other documents as are necessary or reasonably appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Administrative Agent, each Pledgor shall make
available to the Administrative Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor’s employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Administrative Agent may reasonably designate for a
reasonable period to enable such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights, and such persons shall be
available to perform their prior functions on the Administrative Agent’s behalf.

 ARTICLE IX 

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 

Section 9.1. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, the proceeds received by the
Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums
then held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement.  
 ARTICLE X 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 10.1.
Concerning Administrative Agent. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent has been appointed as Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The
actions of the Administrative Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to
take or refrain from taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Administrative Agent may resign and a successor Administrative Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the
Loan Documents. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation,
the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Administrative Agent. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if
such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the
Administrative Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral,
whether or not the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message
believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. 

(d) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Administrative Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security
agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the
Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control. 

  
 -23- 








 (e) The Administrative Agent may rely on advice of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of
the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any relevant change to any Pledgor or to the Collateral. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Administrative Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Administrative Agent shall not
be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Administrative Agent needed to have information relating to such changes.
The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Administrative Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the
Administrative Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor. 
 Section 10.2.
Administrative Agent May Perform; Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder and under the Credit Agreement, (ii) pay and discharge any taxes, assessments
and special assessments, levies, fees and governmental charges imposed upon or assessed against, and landlords’, carriers’, mechanics’, workmen’s, repairmen’s, laborers’, materialmen’s, suppliers’ and ware-housemen’s Liens and other claims arising by operation of law against, all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) discharge Liens (except for Permitted Liens) or (v) pay or perform any
obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be
done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such
Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. Any and all amounts so expended by the Administrative Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in
accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. Neither the provisions of this Section 10.2 nor any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.2 shall prevent any such failure
to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Administrative
Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Loan Documents, this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes
hereof (but the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and
such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.  

Section 10.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged
Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person in accordance with and pursuant to


  
 -24- 








 
the Credit Agreement and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the
provisions of the Credit Agreement and any Customary Intercreditor Agreement. Each of the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if
at any time payment, or any part thereof, of all or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise. 

Section 10.4. Termination; Release. When all of the Obligations have been paid in full, this Agreement shall automatically, and without any
action by any party hereto, terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Pledgor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit
Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.01(a)(b)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, the security interest in such Collateral shall be
automatically released. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, to the extent applicable, any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative
Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent except as to the fact that the Administrative
Agent has not encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in the possession of the Administrative Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied
pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the termination
hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be.  
 Section 10.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment,
modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in
writing and signed by the Administrative Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in
each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document evidencing the Obligations, no notice to or demand
on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  

Section 10.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or
permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Administrative Agent,
addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this
Section 10.6.  
 Section 10.7. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.
Sections 10.11, 10.12 and 10.17 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. 

Section 10.8. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 

  
 -25- 








 Section 10.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents
or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of any executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 Section 10.10. Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other
than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such
other day. 
 Section 10.11. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit
against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment
of any Taxes on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof. 
 Section 10.12. No Claims Against Administrative Agent. Nothing
contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Administrative Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged
Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the
making of any claim against the Administrative Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 

Section 10.13. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor the exercise by the Administrative Agent of
any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or
from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such
Pledgor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or
warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document included in the Pledged
Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 10.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. 

  
 -26- 








 Section 10.14. Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be
absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
  

	(i)	any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other Pledgor; 

  

	(ii)	any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any Customary Intercreditor Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 


 

	(iii)	any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any Customary
Intercreditor Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 

  

	(iv)	any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guaranty, for all or any of
the Obligations; 

  

	(v)	any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Credit Agreement, any Customary Intercreditor Agreement or any other
Loan Document; or 

  

	(vi)	any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor. 


Section 10.15. Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses. The parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as and to the extent provided in Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement and the provisions of Section 10.5 shall be incorporated by reference herein and apply to the Pledgors mutatis
mutandis. 
 Section 10.16. Customary Intercreditor Agreement. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the priority of the Liens granted hereunder in favor of the Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties in respect of the Pledged Collateral and the exercise of any right or remedy related thereto thereby shall be subject, in each case, to the terms of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) In the event of any conflict between the terms and provisions of this Agreement and of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement with regard to
the priority of the Liens granted hereunder and the exercise of any right or remedy related thereto, the terms and provisions of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement shall control. 

(c) The parties hereto acknowledge that the Administrative Agent may effect transfers of any Pledged Collateral at any time in its possession
(and any “control” or similar agreements with respect to such Pledged Collateral) to any Permitted Representative to be held as Pledged Collateral pursuant to the terms of any Customary Intercreditor Agreement and will provide notice
thereof to Borrower. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any provision hereof that requires any Pledgor to
(i) deliver any Pledged Collateral to the Administrative Agent or (ii) provide that the Administrative Agent has control over such Pledged Collateral, may be satisfied by (A) the delivery of such Pledged Collateral by such Pledgor to

 JOINDER AGREEMENT 

[Name of New Pledgor] 
 [Address of

 [Date] 
  

 
  

 
  

 
  

 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Reference is made to the Security Agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Security Agreement”; capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of June 23, 2014, made by ESH HOSPITALITY, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the “Borrower”) and the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA, as administrative agent (in such capacity and together with any
successors in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). 
 This Joinder Agreement supplements the Security Agreement and
is delivered by the undersigned, [    ] (the “New Pledgor”), pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor hereby agrees to be bound as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as a Pledgor
party to the Security Agreement by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Security Agreement on the date of the Security
Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the New Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Administrative Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Pledged Collateral and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Subsidiary
Guarantor and Pledgor thereunder. The New Pledgor hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to the Pledgors contained in the Security Agreement. 

Annexed hereto are supplements to each of the schedules to the Security Agreement with respect to the New Pledgor. Such supplements shall be
deemed to be part of the Security Agreement. 
 The New Pledgor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent at any time and from
time to time to file in any relevant jurisdiction any financing statements (including fixture filings) and amendments thereto that contain the information required by Article 9 of the UCC of each applicable jurisdiction for the filing of any
financing statement or amendment relating to the Pledged Collateral, including (i) whether the New Pledgor is an organization, the type of organization and any organizational identification number issued to the New Pledgor, (ii) any
financing or continuation statements or other documents without the signature of the New Pledgor where permitted by law, including the filing of a 







 
financing statement describing the Pledged Collateral as “all assets now owned or hereafter acquired by the New Pledgor or in which the New Pledgor otherwise has rights” or using words
of similar import and (iii) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or covering Pledged Collateral constituting minerals or the like to be extracted or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of the real property to
which such Pledged Collateral relates. The New Pledgor agrees to provide all information described in the immediately preceding sentence to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. 

This Joinder Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF
LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Pledgor has caused this Joinder Agreement to be executed and
delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the date first above written.

 EXCUTION VERSION 

Amended and Restated Blocked Account Control 

Agreement (“Lending Control”) | JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A. 

V1.5_0213 
 AMENDED AND RESTATED BLOCKED
ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT dated as of June 23, 2014, (the “Agreement”) by and among ESH Hospitality, Inc. (“Company”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined
below) (“Revolving Agent”), Goldman Sachs Bank, USA, as administrative agent under the Term Credit Agreement (as defined below) (“Term Agent”) (Revolving Agent and Term Agent collectively referred to as “Agents”) and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Depositary”). 
 The parties hereto refer to Account No. ********** in the name of Company maintained at Depositary
(the “Account”) and hereby agree as follows: 
  

	1.	(a) Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “original Agent”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Depositary entered into that certain Blocked
Account Control Agreement, dated November 18, 2013, with reference to Account ********** (the “Original Agreement”). By this instrument, each of Company, original Agent and Depositary agree that the Original Agreement is merged into
and replaced by this Amended and Restated Blocked Account Control Agreement. 

 (b) Company and Revolving Agent are party to
that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2013 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), by and among Company, as borrower, the lenders
from time to time party thereto and Revolving Agent, as administrative agent and (ii) Company and Term Agent are party to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of June 23, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time, the “Term Credit Agreement”), by and among Company, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Term Agent, as administrative agent. 

(c) Company and Agents notify Depositary that by separate agreements Company has granted Agents security interests in the Account and all funds
on deposit from time to time therein. Depositary acknowledges being so notified. 
 (d) As used herein, “Control Agent” shall mean
Revolving Agent until the Resignation Effective Time. For the purposes hereof, the “Resignation Effective Time” shall be the opening of business on the second Business Day next succeeding the Business Day on which a notice purporting to be
signed by the Revolving Agent notifies Depositary in writing in substantially the same form as Exhibit A, attached hereto, with a copy of this Agreement attached thereto (a “Resignation Notice”), is actually received by the unit of
Depositary to whom the notice is required hereunder to be addressed; provided, however, that a “Business Day” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Depositary is or is authorized or required by law to be closed. On
and after the Resignation Effective Time, the term “Control Agent” shall mean Term Agent and Depositary shall cease honoring instructions from the Revolving Agent and begin honoring the instructions of the Term Agent pursuant to this
Agreement. Depositary and/or any affiliate may (at its discretion and without any obligation to do so) cease honoring Revolving Agent’s instructions and/or commence honoring solely Term Agent’s instructions concerning the Account at any
time after it receives a Resignation Notice but prior to the Resignation Effective Time. As of the Resignation Effective Time, the Revolving Agent will no longer be an Agent under this Agreement. 

2. Depositary shall honor only withdrawal, payment, transfer or other fund disposition or other instructions which the Company would be
entitled to give under the Account Documentation (as hereinafter defined) save for the provisions of this Agreement (collectively, “instructions”) received from the Control Agent (without Company’s consent) concerning the Account. The
Company shall have no right to issue instructions or any other right or ability to access or withdraw or transfer funds from the Account. 

Revolving Agent hereby agrees with Company that Revolving Agent (if acting as Control Agent) shall provide instructions to Depositary at the
request of Company at any time neither (i) a Trigger Event (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) has occurred and is continuing nor (ii) an Event of Default (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) has occurred and is
continuing. Revolving Agent and Company hereby agree that the foregoing sentence creates rights and obligations and liabilities solely and exclusively between the two of them and that Depositary’s duties and responsibilities under this
Agreement (including without limitation with respect to any instruction given to Depositary by Revolving Agent) are determined without any reference whatsoever to the foregoing sentence, any knowledge the Depositary may have or be deemed to have of
the existence thereof or any claim by Company or Revolving Agent that the Depositary must take such sentence into account. 
 Term Agent
hereby agrees with Company that Term Agent (if acting as Control Agent) shall provide instructions to Depositary at the request of Company at any time that an Event of Default (as defined in the Term Credit Agreement) has not occurred and is not
continuing. Term Agent and Company hereby agree that the foregoing sentence creates rights and obligations and liabilities solely and exclusively between the two of them and that Depositary’s duties and responsibilities under this Agreement
(including without limitation with respect to any instruction given to Depositary by Term Agent) are determined without any reference whatsoever to the foregoing sentence, any knowledge the Depositary may have or be deemed to have of the existence
thereof or any claim by Company or Term Agent that the Depositary must take such sentence into account. 
  

	3.	This Agreement supplements, rather than replaces, Depositary’s deposit account agreement, terms and conditions and other standard documentation in effect from time to time with respect to the Account or services
provided in connection with the Account (the “Account Documentation”), which Account Documentation will continue to apply to the Account and such services, and the respective rights, powers, duties, obligations, liabilities and
responsibilities of the parties thereto and hereto, to the extent not expressly conflicting with the 


  
 Page 1 of 4 









	 	
provisions of this Agreement (however, in the event of any such conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall control). Prior to issuing any instructions, Control Agent shall provide
Depositary with such documentation as Depositary may reasonably request to establish the identity and authority of the individuals issuing instructions on behalf of Control Agent. Control Agent may request the Depositary to provide other services
(such as automatic daily transfers) with respect to the Account; however, if such services are not authorized or otherwise covered under the Account Documentation, Depositary’s decision to provide any such services shall be made in its sole
discretion (including without limitation being subject to Company and/or Control Agent executing such Account Documentation or other documentation as Depositary may require in connection therewith). 


 

	4.	(a) Depositary agrees not to exercise or claim any right of offset, banker’s lien or other like right against the Account for so long as this Agreement is in effect except with respect to (i) returned or
charged-back items, reversals or cancellations of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers or other corrections or adjustments to the Account or transactions therein, (ii) overdrafts in the Account or (iii) Depositary’s
charges, fees and expenses with respect to the Account or the services provided hereunder. 

 (b) Upon the occurrence of any of
the items referred to in clauses (i)-(iii), inclusive, of the preceding sentence (any such item, a “Returned Item”), Depositary shall first attempt to obtain reimbursement therefore from the Account or the Company; however, if Depositary
fails to obtain any such reimbursement within 15 days after the occurrence of such Returned Item, then Control Agent shall reimburse Depositary the amount of such Returned Item within 5 days after Control Agent’s receipt of a written request
therefor from Depositary; provided that the Control Agent’s aggregate obligations under this sentence shall be limited to the aggregate amount transferred from the Account on the instructions of the Control Agent pursuant to this Agreement.

  

	5.	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement: (i) Depositary shall have only the duties and responsibilities with respect to the matters set forth herein as is expressly set forth in writing herein
and shall not be deemed to be an agent, bailee or fiduciary for any party hereto; (ii) Depositary shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith without investigation on any notice, instruction or request purportedly
furnished to it by Company or Control Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, in which case the parties hereto agree that Depositary has no duty to make any further inquiry whatsoever; (iii) it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that
Depositary has no knowledge of (and is not required to know) the terms and provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Term Credit Agreement or the separate agreements referred to in paragraph 1 above or any other related documentation or
whether any actions by Control Agent, Company or any other person or entity are permitted or a breach thereunder or consistent or inconsistent therewith, (iv) Depositary shall not be liable to any party hereto or any other person for any action
or failure to act under or in connection with this Agreement except to the extent such conduct constitutes its own willful misconduct or gross negligence (and to the maximum extent permitted by law, shall under no circumstances be liable for any
incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages); and (v) Depositary shall not be liable for losses or delays caused by force majeure, interruption or malfunction of computer, transmission or communications facilities, labor
difficulties, court order or decree, the commencement of bankruptcy or other similar proceedings or other matters beyond Depositary’s reasonable control. 

  

	6.	(a) Company hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Depositary against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel who may be an employee of Depositary)
(collectively, “Covered Items”) incurred in connection with this Agreement or the Account (except to the extent due to Depositary’s willful misconduct or gross negligence) or any interpleader proceeding relating thereto or incurred as
a result of following Company’s direction or instruction. 

 (b) Control Agent hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save
harmless Depositary against any Covered Items incurred in connection with this Agreement or the Account (except to the extent due to Depositary’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, and except for items covered by clause (c) of this
Section 6) or any interpleader proceeding related thereto as a result of following Control Agent’s direction or instruction. 
 (c)
In addition, each Agent hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and save harmless Depositary against any Covered Items incurred due to any claim by such Agent of an interest in the Account or the funds on deposit therein. 

 

	7.	Depositary may terminate this Agreement (i) in its discretion upon the sending of at least thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to the other parties hereto or (ii) because of a material breach by
Company or Agents of any of the terms of this Agreement or the Account Documentation, upon the sending of at least five (5) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto. Prior to the Resignation Effective Time, Agents may terminate
this Agreement in their discretion upon the sending of at least three (3) days advance written notice signed by each Agent to the other parties hereto and after the Resignation Effective Time Control Agent may terminate this Agreement in its
discretion upon the sending of at least three (3) days advance written notice to the other parties hereto, provided that Depositary may shorten or waive the requirement that Agents’ notice be in advance and any such shortening or waiver
shall be binding on all parties. Prior to the Resignation Effective Time, the Term Agent can resign as Agent under this Agreement with written notice to all parties. Any other termination or any amendment or waiver of this Agreement shall be
effected solely by an instrument in writing executed by all the parties hereto. The provisions of paragraphs 4(b), 5 and 6 above shall survive any such termination or resignation of this Agreement. 


 

	8.	Company shall compensate Depositary for the opening and administration of the Account and services provided hereunder in accordance with Depositary’s fee schedules from time to time in effect. Payment will be
effected by a direct debit to the Account. 

  

	9.	This Agreement: (i) may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument; (ii) shall
become effective when counterparts hereof have been signed by the parties hereto; and (iii) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. All parties hereby waive all rights to a trial by jury in

FORM OF CONDITIONAL ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT 

[Provided Separately] 







 EXECUTION COPY 

(Account – With Multiple Activation, Multi-Lender) 

AMENDED AND RESTATED 

DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT 

This Amended and Restated Deposit Account Control Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into as of June 23, 2014, among
ESH Hospitality, Inc. (“Company”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent under the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below) (“Revolving Agent”), Goldman Sachs Bank, USA, as administrative agent
under the Term Credit Agreement (as defined below) (“Term Agent” and, together with the Revolving Agent, the “Agents”) and Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank”) with respect to the following: 

RECITALS: 
 A. Bank has agreed to establish and
maintain for Company certain deposit account(s) identified as number(s) ******** (referred to individually and collectively, as the “Account”). 

B. Company, Revolving Agent and Bank are parties to that certain Deposit Account Control Agreement, with respect to the Account, dated
November 18, 2013 (the “Existing Control Agreement”). 
 C. Company, Revolving Agent, Term Agent and Bank each agree
that this Agreement shall amend and restate the Existing Control Agreement in its entirety, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

D. Company and Revolving Agent are party to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2013 (as amended, amended and
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), by and among Company, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Revolving Agent, as administrative agent. 

E. Company and Revolving Agent are party to that certain Security Agreement, dated as of November 18, 2013 (as amended, amended and
restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement (Revolver)”), by and between Company, as borrower, and Revolving Agent. 

F. Company and Term Agent are party to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of June 23, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term Credit Agreement”), by and among Company, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Term Agent, as administrative agent. 

G. Company and Term Agent are party to that certain Security Agreement, dated as of June 23, 2014 (as amended, amended and restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement (Term)”), by and between Company, as borrower, and Term Agent. 







 H. Pursuant to the Security Agreement (Revolver), Company has assigned to Revolving Agent a
security interest in the Account and in any checks, automated clearinghouse (“ACH”) transfers, wire transfers, instruments and other payment items (collectively, “Funds”) deposited in the Account. 

I. Pursuant to the Security Agreement (Term), Company has assigned to Term Agent a security interest in the Account and in any Funds deposited
in the Account. 
 J. Company, Revolving Agent and Term Agent have requested Bank to enter into this Agreement to evidence Revolving Agent
and Term Agent’s security interest in the Account and to provide for the disposition of the Funds deposited in the Account. 
 K. Bank
is willing to enter into this Agreement for the benefit of Company, Revolving Agent and Term Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 

Accordingly, Company, Revolving Agent, Term Agent and Bank agree as follows: 

1. Revolving Agent and Term Agents’ Control over the Account. 

(a) This Agreement evidences each Agent’s control over the Account. Notwithstanding any contrary duties owed by Bank to the Company under
any other deposit account agreements, terms and conditions or other documentation entered into by and between Bank and the Company governing the Account and any cash management or similar services provided by Bank or an affiliate of Bank in
connection with the Account, including without limitation, services in connection with any “Lockbox”, as defined below (collectively, the “Account Related Agreements”), Bank will comply with instructions originated by each
Agent as set forth herein directing the disposition of Funds in the Account without further consent of the Company. Bank may follow such instructions even if doing so results in the dishonoring by Bank of items presented for payment from the Account
or Bank otherwise not complying with any instruction from Company directing the disposition of any Funds in the Account. Bank shall have no liability for not honoring any instruction issued by the Term Agent prior to the delivery by the Revolving
Agent of an Agent Transfer Notice. 
 (b) Company represents and warrants to each Agent and Bank that it has not assigned or granted a
security interest in the Account or any Funds deposited in the Account, except to Agents and Bank. 
 (c) Company will not permit any Account
to become subject to any other pledge, assignment, lien, charge or encumbrance of any kind (“Charges”), other than Agents’ security interest referred to herein, Bank’s setoffs and the Charges permitted hereinafter. 

(d) Company covenants to each Agent that it will not close the Account prior to the termination of this Agreement. Bank shall have no liability
in the event Company breaches this covenant to Agents. 







 2. Company Access to the Account. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2 of the Agreement,
prior to an “Activation Effective Time” (as defined below) Bank may honor withdrawal, payment, transfer, or other instructions originated by the Company concerning the disposition of Funds in the Account (collectively, “Company
Instructions”). On and after each Activation Effective Time until termination of such Activation Effective Time as provided in Section 3, Bank shall only honor instructions originated by the Notice Agent (as defined below) concerning
the disposition of Funds in the Account (“Agent Instructions”) without further consent from the Company and Company shall have no right or ability to access, withdraw or transfer Funds from the Account. Except as provided herein, no
Agent Instruction may be rescinded or modified without Bank’s consent, except Notice Agent may terminate the Activation Effective Time as provided in this Agreement. Each Agent and Company acknowledge that Bank may, without liability,
(i) comply with any Company Instruction or otherwise complete a transaction involving the Account that Bank or an affiliate had started to process before an Activation Effective Time and (ii) commence to solely honor Notice Agent’s
Instructions at any time or from time to time after Bank becomes aware that Notice Agent has sent to Bank the Activation Notice (as defined below) even if prior to an Activation Effective Time (including without limitation halting, reversing or
redirection of any transaction), which actions (under (i) and/or (ii)) shall not, in any way, affect the commencement of an Activation Effective Time. The Account may receive merchant card deposits and chargebacks. Company acknowledges and
agrees that upon commencement of the Activation Effective Time, chargebacks may be blocked from debiting the Account. 
 As used in this
Agreement, the term “Notice Agent” shall mean (i) at any time prior to the delivery of an Agent Transfer Notice, in the form of Exhibit D hereto (an “Agent Transfer Notice”), by the Revolving Agent to the Bank,
the Revolving Agent and (ii) at any time after the delivery of an Agent Transfer Notice by the Revolving Agent to the Bank, the Term Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, there shall at all times be only one Notice Agent. The parties hereto agree
that the Term Agent shall have the right to provide an Activation Notice and Agent Instructions; provided, however, the Term Agent hereby covenants to the Bank and the Revolving Agent that it will not provide such Activation Notice or Agent
Instructions prior to an Agent Transfer Notice being delivered as set forth in clause (ii) above, any such delivery prior to such Agent Transfer Notice shall be deemed null and void. 

For purposes hereof, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this agreement, each “Activation Effective Time” shall commence
upon the opening of business on the second Banking Day (as defined below) following the Banking Day on which a notice purporting to be signed by Notice Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 and sent to the location of Bank to which Notice
Agent is required hereunder to send the Activation Notice, with a copy of this Agreement attached (an “Activation Notice”) is received by the Bank; provided, however, that if such Activation Notice is received on any day after 12:00
noon, eastern time, such Activation Notice shall be deemed to have been received on the next Banking Day. A “Banking Day” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which Bank is or is authorized or required by law to be
closed. 
 Within a reasonable time, after commencement of each Activation Effective Time and continuing on each Banking Day thereafter,
Bank shall wire transfer all immediately available Funds (other than the Retained Balance provided in Section 15(i) below) in the Account to the account specified by Notice Agent in the Activation Notice. In the event Notice Agent requests in








 
writing a change to the wire transfer instructions provided to Bank in the Activation Notice by sending a written notice in substantially the form of Exhibit B and sent to the location of Bank to
which Notice Agent is required hereunder to send the Activation Notice to Bank to the location set forth hereunder, any such change requested by Notice Agent shall commence no later than the opening of business on the second Banking Day following
the Banking Day on which such notice is received by the Bank; provided, however, that if such notice is received on any day after 12:00 noon, eastern time, such notice shall be deemed to have been received on the next Banking Day. Funds are not
available if (i) they are not available pursuant to Bank’s funds availability policy as set forth in the Account Related Agreements or (ii) in the reasonable determination of Bank, (A) they are subject to hold, dispute or a
binding order, judgment, decree or injunction or a garnishment, restraining notice or other legal process directing or prohibiting or otherwise restricting, the disposition of the Funds in the Account or (B) the transfer of such Funds would
result in Bank failing to comply with a statute, rule or regulation. 
 3. Multiple Agent Activations Permitted. The Revolving Agent and the Term
Agent, collectively (in their respective capacities as Notice Agent), shall be entitled to send no more than three separate Activation Notices to the Bank. After a “Termination Effective Time” as defined below and prior to commencement of
a subsequent Activation Effective Time, Company may operate and transact business through the Account in its normal fashion, including issuing Company Instructions to the Bank. Each of the three Activation Effective Times shall commence as described
in Section 2 of this Agreement and until the termination of each such Activation Effective Time, Bank shall only honor Agent Instructions. Each Activation Effective Time may be terminated by the Notice Agent by sending Bank a notice of
termination (the “Activation Termination Notice”) in the form of Exhibit A-2. Each termination shall become effective on the Termination Effective Time. The third and final Activation Effective Time will terminate concurrently with
the termination of the Agreement in accordance with the terms of Section 13. Each “Termination Effective Time” shall commence upon the opening of business on the second Banking Day (as defined below) following the Banking Day on which
an Activation Termination Notice purporting to be signed by Agent in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2, is received by the Bank; provided, however, that if such notice is received on any day after 12:00 noon, eastern time, such notice shall be
deemed to have been received on the next Banking Day. The Bank shall have a reasonable after the Termination Effective Time to halt further transfers from the Account to the account specified by Agent in the Activation Effective Notice. 

4. Returned Items. Each Agent and Company understand and agree that the face amount (“Returned Item Amount”) of each Returned Item (as
defined herein) may be paid by Bank debiting the Account to which the Returned Item was originally credited, without prior notice to any Agent or Company. As used in this Agreement, the term “Returned Item” means (i) any item
deposited to an Account and returned unpaid or otherwise uncollected, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to timeliness of the return or the occurrence or timeliness of any drawee’s notice of non-payment;
(ii) any item subject to, a claim against Bank of breach of transfer or presentment warranty under the Uniform Commercial Code (as adopted in the applicable state), Regulation CC (12 C.F.R. §229), clearing house operating rules or NACHA as
in effect from time to time; (iii) any ACH entry credited to the Account and returned unpaid or subject to an adjustment entry under applicable clearing house rules, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, and without regard to
timeliness of the return or adjustment; (iv) any credit to the Account from a merchant card transaction, against which a contractual demand for chargeback has been made; and (v) any credit to the Account made in error and any other
adjustments including those due to encoding errors or other items posted to the account in error. 







 5. Settlement Items. Each Agent and Company understand and agree that Bank may pay the face amount
(“Settlement Item Amount”) of each Settlement Item (as defined herein) by debiting the applicable Account, without prior notice to any Agent or Company. As used in this Agreement, the term “Settlement Item” means
(i) each check or other payment order drawn on or payable against any controlled disbursement account, a Controlled Balance Account (as defined below) or other deposit account at any time linked to any Account by a controlled balance
arrangement (each a “Linked Account”), which Bank takes for deposit or value, cashes or exchanges for a cashier’s check or official check in the ordinary course of business prior to an Activation Effective Time and which is
presented for settlement against the Account (after having been presented against the Linked Account) during an Activation Effective Time, (ii) each check or other payment order drawn on or payable against an Account, which, prior to an
Activation Effective Time, Bank takes for deposit or value, assures payment pursuant to a banker’s acceptance, cashes or exchanges for a cashier’s check or official check in the ordinary course of business after Bank’s cutoff time for
posting, (iii) each ACH credit entry initiated by Bank, as originating depository financial institution, on behalf of Company, as originator, prior to an Activation Effective Time, which ACH credit entry settles during an Activation Effective
Time, and (iv) any other payment order drawn on or payable against an Account, which Bank has paid or funded prior to an Activation Effective Time, and which is first presented for settlement against the Account in the ordinary course of
business during an Activation Effective Time. Company and each Agent acknowledge and agree that if there are Linked Accounts not subject to this Agreement, that upon commencement of an Activation Effective Time any such Linked Accounts will be
de-linked and will no longer transfer balances to or from the Account. “Controlled Balance Account” is a deposit account that is linked to one or more other deposit accounts in order to allow transfers to be made between such
accounts on an automated basis, pursuant to the Company’s instructions, in order to maintain a specified balance in one or more of the Linked Accounts, including, without limitation, zero balance arrangements where transfers are made to a
subaccount from a master account or from a subaccount to a master account at the end of each Banking Day in order to maintain a zero balance in such subaccount at the end of such Banking Day. 

6. Account Related Agreements. This Agreement supplements, rather than replaces, the Account Related Agreements. The Account Related Agreements will
continue to apply to the Account and cash management or similar services provided by Bank or any affiliate of Bank in connection with the Account to the extent not directly in conflict with the provisions of this Agreement (provided, however, that
in the event of any such conflict, the provisions of this Agreement shall control). 
 7. Lockboxes. To the extent that any Funds to be deposited to
the Account have been received in one or more post office lockboxes maintained for Company by Bank (each a “Lockbox”) and have been or will be processed by Bank for deposit to the Account in accordance with the terms of the
applicable Account Related Agreement (the “Remittances”), Company acknowledges that Company has granted to each Agent a security interest in all Remittances. Company agrees that after Bank receives the Activation Notice, Company
will not instruct Bank regarding the receipt, processing or deposit of Remittances nor will it attempt to change or redirect the items deposited in the Lockbox. Company and each Agent acknowledge and agree that Bank’s operation of each Lockbox,
and the receipt, retrieval, processing and deposit of Remittances, will at all times be governed by Bank’s Account Related Agreements. 







 8. Bank Subordination and Permitted Debits. Bank agrees that, during any Activation Effective Time, Bank
shall not offset, charge, deduct, debit or otherwise withdraw funds from the Account, except as permitted by this Section 8, until Bank has been advised in writing by each Agent that this Agreement has been terminated. Each Agent shall notify
Bank promptly in writing upon payment in full of Company’s respective obligations by means of a Termination Notice (defined below). 
 During any
Activation Effective Time, Bank is permitted to debit the Account for: 
 (a) Bank’s fees and charges relating to the Account or
associated with this Agreement and any other charges, fees, expenses, payments and other amounts for treasury management services or card services provided by Bank to the Company in connection with the Account or the Lockboxes, including, without
limitation, funds transfer (origination or receipt), trade, merchant card, lockbox, stop payment, positive pay, automatic investment, imaging, and information services (collectively “Bank Fees”); 

(b) any Returned Item Amounts; 

(c) any Settlement Item Amounts; and 

(d) chargebacks regarding merchant card deposits and debits related to cash vault coin and currency requests (“Permitted
Debits”). 
 Bank’s right to debit the Account under this Section 8 shall exist notwithstanding any obligation of the Company or any
Agent to reimburse or indemnify Bank. 
 9. Company and Agent Responsibilities. 

(a) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any Bank Fees, Company agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due
Bank. If Company fails to so pay Bank and such Bank Fees are incurred during an Activation Effective Time, to the extent funds are received by any Agent from the Account, such Agent agrees to pay Bank within five (5) Banking Days after
Bank’s demand to such Agent with respect to such Bank Fees. The failure of Company or such Agent to so pay Bank shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. 

(b) If the balances in the Account are not sufficient to compensate Bank for any Returned Item Amounts or Settlement Item Amounts, Company
agrees to pay Bank on demand the amount due Bank. If Company fails to so pay Bank immediately upon demand and such Returned Item Amounts of Settlement Item Amounts are incurred during an Activation Effective Time, Notice Agent agrees to pay Bank the
amount due within five (5) Banking Days after Bank’s demand to Notice Agent to pay such amount up to any amount transferred to an account designated by Notice Agent. The failure by Company or Notice Agent to so pay Bank shall constitute a
breach of this Agreement. 







 (c) Bank is authorized, without prior notice and without regard to the Activation Notice under
this Agreement or any other control agreement with Agent, from time to time to debit any other account Company may have with Bank for the amount or amounts due Bank under this Agreement or any other Account Related Agreement. 

(d) At the request of Bank, Company agrees to provide Bank with annual company-prepared financial statements within 120 days of year-end, to
Bank’s address set forth below. 
 10. Bank Statements. Upon written request by any Agent, in addition to the original Bank statement for the
Account provided to Company, Bank will provide such Agent with a duplicate of such statement. 
  

	11.	Bank’s Responsibility/Limitation of Liability. 

 (a) Bank will not be liable to
Company or any Agent for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost (“Damages”) arising out of or relating to its performance or failure to perform under this Agreement other than those Damages to the extent resulting directly from
Bank’s acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or intentional misconduct as determined in a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order. Bank’s obligations hereunder shall be that of a depository bank, and
nothing in this Agreement shall create custodial or bailee obligations. 
 (b) In no event will Bank or any Agent be liable for any special,
indirect, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost profits. 
 (c) Bank will be excused from any
failure to act or delay in acting, and no such failure or delay shall constitute a breach of this Agreement or otherwise give rise to any liability of Bank, if (i) such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Bank’s reasonable
control, including but not limited to legal constraint, emergency conditions, action or inaction of governmental, civil or military authority, fire, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, war, riot, theft, acts of terrorism, flood, earthquake or
other natural disaster, breakdown of public or private or common carrier communications or transmission facilities, equipment failure, or negligence or default of Company or Agent or (ii) such failure or delay resulted from Bank’s
reasonable belief that the action would have violated any of Bank’s guidelines or policies, or rule or regulation of any governmental authority. 

(d) Bank shall have no duty to inquire or determine whether Company’s obligations to any Agent are in default or whether Notice Agent is
entitled to provide the Activation Notice or any Agent Instructions to Bank. Bank may rely on notices and communications it believes in good faith to be genuine and given by the appropriate party. Bank may accept, acknowledge or act upon any notice,
instructions or other directions hereunder that contain minor mistakes or other irregularities, including notices that fail to attach an accurate copy of this Agreement. 

(e) Notwithstanding any of the other provisions in this Agreement, in the event of the commencement of a case pursuant to Title 11, United
States Code, filed by or against Company, or in the event of the commencement of any similar case under then applicable federal or state law providing for the relief of debtors or the protection of creditors by or against Company, Bank may act as
Bank deems reasonably necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of governing statutes and shall not be in violation of this Agreement as a result. 







 (f) Bank shall be permitted to comply with any writ, levy, order or other similar judicial or
regulatory order or process concerning the Account or any Funds and shall not be in violation of this Agreement for so doing. 
 12. Indemnities. 

(a) Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank against all liabilities, expense, claim, loss, damage or cost of any nature
(including but not limited to allocated costs of in-house legal services and other reasonable attorney’s fees) and any other fees and expenses, whether to Bank or to third parties (“Losses”) in any way arising out of or
relating to this Agreement, including all costs of settlement of claims. This section does not apply to any Losses to the extent directly attributable to gross negligence or intentional misconduct of Bank as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order. 
 (b) To the extent such obligations of indemnity are not satisfied by Company within five
(5) Banking Days after demand on Company by Bank, each Agent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Bank against all Losses Bank may suffer or incur as a result of following any instructions received from such Agent (acting as a Notice
Agent) pursuant to the Activation Notice other than Losses to the extent directly attributable to Bank’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order. 

(c) Company shall pay to Bank, upon receipt of Bank’s invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs for
in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any related instrument or agreement, including but not limited to any costs, expenses and fees arising out of
the resolution of any conflict, dispute, motion regarding entitlement to rights or rights of action, or other action relating to Bank’s rights or obligations in a case arising under Title 11, United States Code. Company agrees to pay Bank, upon
receipt of Bank’s invoice, all costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs for in-house legal services) incurred by Bank in the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any related instrument or agreement
(including any amendments thereto). 
 13. Termination and Assignment of this Agreement. 

(a) Any Agent may terminate this Agreement (with respect to itself) by providing notice substantially in the form of Exhibit C
(“Termination Notice”) together with a copy of this Agreement to Company, the Bank and the other Agent, provided that Bank shall have a reasonable time to act on such termination. Any Agent may assign this Agreement by providing 10
days’ prior written notice of such assignment together with a copy of this Agreement to Company, the other Agent and Bank. Bank may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Company and each Agent. Company may not
terminate this Agreement except with the written consent of each Agent and upon prior written notice to Bank. 







 (b) Notwithstanding subsection 13(a), Bank may terminate this Agreement at any time by written
notice to Company and each Agent if either Company or any Agent breaches any of the terms of this Agreement, provided that, all Funds will be sent via wire transfer to an another account of the Company specified (i) at any time other than
during an Activation Effective Time, jointly by the Notice Agent and the Company or (ii) during an Activation Effective Time, by the Notice Agent. 

(c) Sections 9, 11 and 12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement; provided that any Agent’s reimbursement obligations under
Sections 9 and 11 shall terminate on the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of termination of this Agreement, except with respect to claims made by Bank prior to expiration of such one hundred twenty (120) day
period.

(a) Each party represents and warrants to the other parties that (i) this Agreement constitutes its duly authorized, legal, valid, binding
and enforceable obligation; (ii) the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder will not (A) constitute or result in a breach of its certificate or articles of

order applicable to it; and (iii) all approvals and authorizations required to permit the execution, delivery, performance and consummation of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder have been obtained. 

(b) Company agrees that it shall be deemed to make and renew each representation and warranty in subsection 14(a) on and as of each day on

(a) This Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by Company, each Agent and Bank; except that Bank Fees are subject to change by Bank
upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Company. 
 (b) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts; all such counterparts shall
constitute but one and the same agreement. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Bank and when Bank shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other

overnight courier. 
 (f) Nothing contained in the Agreement shall create any agency, fiduciary, joint venture or partnership relationship
among any of Bank, Company or any Agent, and nothing in this Agreement shall create custodial or bailee obligations of Bank to any party. Company and each Agent agree that nothing contained in this Agreement, nor any course of dealing among the
parties to this Agreement, shall constitute a commitment or other obligation on the part of Bank to extend credit or services to Company or any Agent. 

(g) Each party hereto intentionally, knowingly and voluntarily irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any proceeding related to
this Agreement.

FORM OF INTERCOMPANY NOTE 
  

			
	Note Number:             	  	Dated:            , 20    

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ESH HOSPITALITY, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), and
certain Subsidiaries of Borrower (collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group Member”) which are a party to this subordinated intercompany note (this “Promissory Note”) promise to pay to
the order of such other Group Member as it makes loans to such Group Member (each Group Member which borrows money pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payor” and each Group Member which makes loans and
advances pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payee”), on demand, in lawful money as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate
office of the Payee, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other Indebtedness now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown in the books and
records of such Payee. The failure to show any such Indebtedness or any error in showing such Indebtedness shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings given such terms in the Credit Agreement dated as of June 23, 2014 (as it may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Borrower, the Lenders
party thereto from time to time, GOLDMAN SACHS BANK USA, as Administrative Agent thereunder (the “Administrative Agent”). 

The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate as may be agreed upon in
writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Interest shall be due and payable at such times as may be agreed upon from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Upon demand for payment of any principal amount hereof, accrued but
unpaid interest on such principal amount shall also be due and payable. Interest shall be paid in any lawful currency as may be agreed upon by the relevant Payor and Payee and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be computed for the actual
number of days elapsed on the basis of a year consisting of 365 days. 
 Each Payor and any endorser of this Promissory Note hereby waives
presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights. 

This Promissory Note has been pledged by each Payee that is a Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
as security for such Payee’s obligations, if any, under the Loan Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that after the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative
Agent and the other Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of each Payee that is a Loan Party under this Promissory Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor.

 Each Payee agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor that is a Loan Party or any endorser of this Promissory Note,
or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until all the Obligations have been performed and paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not due and
payable) and all commitments to 







 
extend credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated; provided, that each Payor that is a Loan Party may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by a Payee pursuant to this Promissory Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Loan Documents.
Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Payor, all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Payor
(whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties in such assets.
Except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, until all
the Obligations have been performed and paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not due and payable) and all commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated. 

After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if all or any part of the assets of any Payor, or the proceeds
thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of any Payor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the
benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any Payor is dissolved or if (except as expressly permitted by the Loan Documents) all or substantially all of the assets of any Payor are sold, then, and in any such
event, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, securities or other investment property, or otherwise, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect
to any indebtedness of such Payor to any Payee (“Payor Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application to any of the Obligations, due or to become due, until all the Obligations have
been performed and paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not due and payable) and all commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an
Event of Default, each Payee that is a Loan Party irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints the Administrative Agent as such Payee’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable), to demand, sue for,
collect and receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of such Payee such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the Administrative Agent’s own names or in the name
of such Payee or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary for the enforcement of this Promissory Note. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Payee that is a Loan Party also agrees to
execute, verify, deliver and file any such proofs of claim in respect of the Payor Indebtedness reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. After the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent
may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding (and the applicable Payee shall not be entitled to withdraw such vote), receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made on Payor Indebtedness in whatever form the
same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, should any payment, distribution, security or other
investment property or instrument or any proceeds thereof be received by any Payee that is a Loan Party upon or with respect to Payor Indebtedness owing to such Payee until all the Obligations have been performed and paid in full (other than
contingent indemnification obligations not due and payable) and all commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated, such Payee that is a Loan Party shall receive and hold the same for the benefit of the Secured Parties,
and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Payee where necessary or advisable in the Administrative Agent’s
judgment), for application to any of the Obligations in accordance with the Credit Agreement, due or not due, and, until 







 
so delivered, the same shall be segregated from the other assets of such Payee for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default, if
such Payee fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, employees or representatives are hereby irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Payee that is a Loan
Party agrees that until all the Obligations have been performed and paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations not due and payable) and all commitments to extend credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated, such Payee
will not (i) assign or transfer, or agree to assign or transfer, to any Person (other than in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Pledge and Security Agreement or otherwise) any claim such
Payee has or may have against any Payor, (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, discount or extend the time for payment of any Payor Indebtedness, or (iii) otherwise amend, modify, supplement, waive or
fail to enforce any provision of this Promissory Note. 
 The Secured Parties shall be third party beneficiaries hereof and shall be
entitled to enforce the subordination and other provisions hereof. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any
other Loan Document or in any such promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which
purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Group Member to any other Group Member. 
 THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY
LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Group Members
may become parties hereto by executing a counterpart signature page to this Promissory Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Payor”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is
hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Payor shall be a Payor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Payor were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall
not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor hereunder. This Promissory Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become
or ceases to be a Payor hereunder. 
 This Promissory Note may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

 EXHIBIT P 

MODIFIED DUTCH AUCTION PROCEDURES 
 This
Outline is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the modified Dutch auction procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 10.6(f)-(h) of the Credit Agreement, of which this Exhibit P is a part (the
“Auction Procedures”). It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of an Auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable auction
procedures set for each Auction (the “Offer Documents”). None of the Administrative Agent, Auction Manager and any other Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates, makes any recommendation pursuant to the Offer
Documents as to whether or not any Lender should sell its Loans to [a Loan Party or Subsidiary/a Sponsor Affiliated Lender] (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to the Offer Documents,
nor shall the decision by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent (or any of their Affiliates) in its capacity as a Lender be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make its own decision on whether to
sell any of its Loans and, if it decides to do so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related
matters concerning this Auction and the Offer Documents. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Exhibit have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. 

Summary. The Purchaser may conduct one or more modified Dutch auctions in order to purchase Loans (each, an
“Auction”) pursuant to the procedures described herein. 
 Notice Procedures. In connection with each
Auction, the Purchaser will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Lenders) of the Loans substantially in the form of Annex A to this Exhibit P that will be the subject of the Auction (an “Auction
Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal amount of Loans that the Purchaser is willing to purchase in the Auction (the “Auction Amount”); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the
“Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which the Purchaser would be willing to purchase Loans in the Auction; and (iii) the date on which the Auction will conclude, on which date
Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 1:00 p.m. New York time, as such date and time may be extended (such time, the “Expiration Time”) for a period not exceeding three Business Days upon notice by the Purchaser to the
Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided, however, that only one extension per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “Failed Auction” in the
event that either (x) Purchaser withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. In the event of a Failed Auction, Purchaser shall
not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring five (5) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. 

Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Lender holding Loans wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior
to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation substantially in the form of Annex B to this Exhibit P (the “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par expressed as a price per
$1,000 (in increments of $5) of Loans (the “Reply Price”) within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of Loans, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple in excess thereof, that such Lender is
willing to offer for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”); provided, that Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than 

  
 2 








 
the minimum amount and/or incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of Loans held by such Lender. Lenders may only submit one Return Bid
per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid (as defined below) and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Lender
resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an Affiliate Assignment Agreement. The Purchaser will not purchase any Loans at a price that is
outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold
Price (as defined below). 
 Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction
Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Purchaser, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for the Auction within the Discount Range for the Auction that will allow the Purchaser to
complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Loans for which the Purchaser has received Qualifying Bids). The Purchaser shall purchase Loans from each Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and
contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All Loans included in Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid)
received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration. 

Proration Procedures. All Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component bid thereof) constituting Qualifying
Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of all Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable
Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Loans to be purchased below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Purchaser shall purchase the Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the
Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids (or any component thereof) will be accepted
above the Applicable Threshold Price. 
 Notification Procedures. Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold
Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet site (including an IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other electronic workspace) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by
4:00 p.m. New York time on the same Business Day as the date the Return Bids were due. The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of Loans to be assigned and the applicable settlement date into each applicable Affiliate Assignment
Agreement received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon request of the submitting Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Affiliate Assignment Agreement received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid. 

Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Purchaser may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, as of
such time, no Qualifying Bid has been received by the Auction Manager. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Lender of a Return Bid, such Lender will not have any withdrawal rights. Any Return Bid (including any component
bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Lender. [In the event that a Loan Party or Subsidiary is the Purchaser: However, an Auction may become void if the
conditions to the purchase of Loans by the Purchaser required by the terms and conditions of Section 10.6(h)(iii) of the Credit Agreement are not met.] The purchase price for each purchase of Loans


  
 3 








 
shall be paid by the Purchaser directly to the respective assigning Lender on a settlement date as determined by the Auction Manager in consultation with the Purchaser (which shall be no later
than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Purchaser shall execute each applicable Affiliate Assignment Agreement received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. 

All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Loans that are the subject of an Auction will be determined by the
Auction Manager, in consultation with the Purchaser, which determination will be final and binding. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer Document, in consultation with the Purchaser, will be final and
binding. 
 None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates assumes any
responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Purchaser, the Loan Parties, or any of their Affiliates (whether contained in the Offer Documents or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have
occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information. 
 This Exhibit P shall not require the Purchaser to initiate any
Auction.

 3. [In the case of assignments to Sponsor Affiliated Lenders: Waivers. (i) The Assignee shall
have no right whatsoever so long as such Person is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender: 
 (A) to vote with respect to any amendment, modification,
waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document requiring the consent of Required Lenders and that it shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender with respect to such
Required Lender votes without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) such assignee
shall be permitted to vote if such amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action disproportionately affects such Sponsor Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders, (y) no amendment, modification,
waiver, consent or other action shall, without the consent of the Sponsor Affiliated Lender, deprive any Sponsor Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments and (z) for the avoidance of doubt, such assignee shall be permitted to vote if such
amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other such action requires the consent of any Lender or any affected lender; 
 (B) to attend
(or receive any notice of) any meeting, conference call or correspondence with Administrative Agent or any Lender not attended by (or noticed to) any Loan Party, their Affiliates or any Person on behalf of or representing any of the foregoing or
receive any information from Administrative Agent or any other Lender not provided to the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or any Person on behalf of or representing any of the foregoing (other than notices of borrowings, prepayments and other
administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Section 2 of the Credit Agreement); or 

(C) to make or bring any claim, solely in its capacity as Lender, against Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender solely with
respect to the duties of such Persons under the Loan Documents (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that such Sponsor Affiliated Lender may make or bring a claim for breach of the Credit Agreement); 

(ii) If any Loan Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law: 

(A) the Assignee shall not take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in such proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the
exercise of any right or the taking of any action by Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that to which Administrative Agent has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by Borrower or any equity or debt
financing to be made to Borrower), including, without limitation, the filing of any pleading by Administrative Agent) in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as Administrative Agent is not taking any action to treat the
Assignee’s Loans in a manner that is less favorable to the Assignee in any material respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor-in-possession
financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization); 
 (B) the
provisions set forth in Section 10.6(f) of the Credit Agreement, and this Section 4, constitute (x) a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code,
and, as such, would be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by applicable non-bankruptcy law for all purposes in any case where a Loan Party has filed for protection under any Debtor Relief Law and affecting the rights of creditors generally
applicable to such Loan Party and (y) an irrevocable voting proxy coupled with a pledge in favor of Administrative Agent with respect to voting obligations set forth in Section 10.6(f) of the Credit Agreement, and this Section 4; 


  
 3 








 (C) the Assignee shall be deemed to have voted in such proceedings in the same proportion as the
allocation of voting with respect to such matter by those Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliated Lenders, except (i) to the extent that any plan under the Bankruptcy Code proposes to treat the Obligations held by the Assignee in a manner that
is less favorable to the Assignee in any material respect than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by other Lenders or (ii) to the extent set forth in Section 10.6(f) of the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt,
except to the extent set forth in the preceding sentence, Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in the name of the Assignee) to vote on behalf of the Assignee or consent on behalf of the Assignee in any such
proceedings with respect to any and all claims of the Assignee relating to the Obligations. The Assignee agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing constitutes an irrevocable proxy in favor of Administrative Agent to vote or consent on behalf of the
Assignee in any proceeding in the manner set forth above and that the Assignee shall be irrevocably bound to any such votes made or consents given and further shall not challenge or otherwise object to such votes or consents and shall not itself
vote or provide consents in the proceeding; and 
 (D) the Assignee hereby expressly and irrevocably waives, for the benefit of
Administrative Agent and the Lenders any principles or provisions of law (including as set forth in any Debtor Relief Law, statutory or otherwise) which are or might be in conflict with the terms of Section 10.6(f) of the Credit Agreement or
this Assignment and any legal or equitable discharge of the Assignee’s obligations hereunder.] 
 4. [No Default. On the Affiliate Assignment
Effective Date, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from this Assignment.]1 

5. No Material Non-Public Information Representation. Assignee and Assignor hereby acknowledge that [Loan Party/Sponsor Affiliated Lender] is not
making any representation that it is not in possession of any information regarding Borrower, its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates, or their assets, Borrower’s ability to perform its Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a
decision by any Lender to participate in any such purchase, sale, assignment or transfer. 
 6. Waiver of Claims. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, Assignor and Assignee hereby irrevocably waive, any claim or cause of action against any Lender, any Agent and their respective officers, partners, members, directors, trustees, advisors, employees, agents, sub-agents and Affiliates
(whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement or otherwise) arising out of or otherwise related to [a Loan Party/Sponsor Affiliated Lender] being in possession of such
undisclosed information at the time of any such purchase, sale, assignment or transfer of Loans that may be material to a Lender’s decision to sell, assign or transfer Loans to [a Loan Party, Sponsor Affiliated Lender]. 

7. General Provisions. This Assignment shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns. This Assignment may be executed in any number of counterparts, which together shall constitute one instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Assignment by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a
manually executed counterpart of this Assignment. This Assignment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof that would require the
application of laws other than those of the State of New York. 
  

	1 	To be included in the context of an assignment to a Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof.
