such Borrowing make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon
fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Agent’s address referred to in Section 8.02. 

(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) no Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall be in an amount that is less than $5,000,000, (ii) no Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be permitted if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.08 or
2.12, and (iii) Borrowings comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans may not be outstanding as part of more than twenty separate Interest Periods. 
 (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the
Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in
Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Loan to be
made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. 
 (d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such Borrowing,
the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Share available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on
demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate
applicable at the time to Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s
Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan
to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan
to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

 Section 2.03. Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit.

 (a) Request for Issuance. (i)Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later
than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit (or on such shorter notice as the applicable Issuing Bank may agree), by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank,
and such Issuing Bank shall give the Agent prompt notice thereof. Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier, specifying therein
the requested (A) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of
Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such customary application and agreement for letter of credit as such Issuing Bank may specify to the Borrower requesting such issuance for use in connection with such
requested Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). If the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, such Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable
conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrower requesting such issuance at its office referred to in Section 8.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrower in connection with such issuance.
For the avoidance of doubt, (x) the applicable conditions set forth in Article III may be deemed fulfilled unless the applicable Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business
Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more of such conditions shall not then be satisfied and (y) if the applicable conditions set forth in Article III have not been
fulfilled, the applicable Issuing Bank (1) shall not issue, or increase the face amount of, the applicable Letter of Credit and (2) shall have the right (or, upon the request of the Required Lenders, the obligation) not to permit any
renewal of the applicable Letter of Credit. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. 

(ii) An Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, issue one or more Letters of Credit hereunder, with expiry dates later
than 10 Business Days prior to the scheduled Termination Date (the “L/C Cash Collateral Date”), based upon the Borrower’s agreement to provide cash collateral to the Issuing Bank (or, if agreed upon, the Agent) relating to such
Letters of Credit on or before the L/C Cash Collateral Date in accordance with the terms of Section 2.19. In the event the Borrower fails to cash collateralize the outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure on the L/C Cash Collateral Date,
each outstanding Letter of Credit shall automatically be deemed to be drawn in full, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan to be funded by the Lenders on the L/C Cash Collateral Date to reimburse such drawing (with the
proceeds of such Base Rate Loan being used to cash collateralize outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure as set forth in Section 2.19) in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03(c). The funding by a Lender of its Ratable Share of such
Base Rate Loan, to cash collateralize the outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure on the Termination Date shall be deemed payment by such Lender in respect of its participation interest in such Letters of Credit. 

(b) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the
amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of
Credit equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby agrees to each such participation. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to 

  
 18 









 
the Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Ratable Share of each drawing made under a Letter of Credit funded by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on
the date made, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving
Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically
adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit at each time such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment is amended pursuant to an assignment in accordance with Section 8.07 or otherwise
pursuant to this Agreement. 
 (c) Drawing and Reimbursement. The payment by an Issuing Bank of a draft
drawn under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by such Issuing Bank of an Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Loan, in the amount of such draft. Each Issuing Bank shall give prompt notice of each
drawing under any Letter of Credit issued by it to the Borrower and the Agent. Upon written demand by such Issuing Bank to the Agent, which the Agent shall promptly forward to the Lenders, each Lender shall pay to the Agent such Lender’s
Ratable Share of such outstanding Advance, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank, by deposit to the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the
portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Advance to be funded by such Lender. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent shall transfer such funds to such Issuing Bank. Each Lender agrees to fund its Ratable Share of an outstanding Advance
on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by such Issuing Bank, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day, or (ii) the first Business Day next
succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Advance available to the Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such
amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by any such Issuing Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for its account or the account of such Issuing Bank, as applicable. If
such Lender shall pay to the Agent such amount for the account of any such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute an Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this
Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. 
 (d) Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (i) to the Agent on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of
Credit issued by it during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit and (ii) to the Agent on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate
Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by it. The Agent shall promptly forward to each Lender each report received by it in accordance with this Section 2.03(d). 

(e) Failure to Make Advances. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it on the date specified
in Section 2.03(c) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender
on such date. 

  
 19 









 Section 2.04. Fees. 

(a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee on the
aggregate amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment from the Effective Date in the case of each Initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it
became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and
December, commencing December 31, 2011, and on the Termination Date. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fees.

 (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a commission on such Lender’s
Ratable Share of the average daily aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding from time to time at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Loans in effect from time to time (plus 2% per annum at
any time Default Interest applies pursuant to Section 2.07(b)), payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31, 2011, and on the Termination Date and after the
Termination Date payable upon demand. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank for its own account
such fronting, issuance and other reasonable fees as may from time to time be agreed in writing between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank. 
 (c) Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and the Agent. 

Section 2.05. Optional Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three
Business Days’ notice (or, if the Facilities are to be refinanced in full, upon notice given on the date of such termination) to the Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the
Lenders, provided that each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments. 

Section 2.06. Repayments. 
 (a) Advances. The Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the account of each Lender on the applicable Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of the Advances made by such Lender and then
outstanding. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Reimbursements. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement,
any Letter of Credit Agreement and any other agreement or instrument, in each case, relating to any Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of
Credit Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances (it being understood that any such payment by the Borrower is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a
waiver of, any rights the Borrower might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by any Issuing Bank of any draft or the reimbursement by the Borrower thereof): 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or any
other agreement or instrument, in each case, relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”); 

  
 20 









 (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other
term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents; 

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any
beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for which any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents
or any unrelated transaction; 
 (iv) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (v) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 

(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to
departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the L/C Related Documents; or 
 (vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor. 
 (c) The Borrower shall repay the outstanding
principal amount of the Term Loans in installments on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the table below (as such installments may hereafter be adjusted as a result of prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.10), unless accelerated
sooner pursuant to Section 6.01:

 Each such payment shall be applied to the Term Loans of the Term Lenders based on their Ratable Shares.

 Section 2.07. Interest on Loans. 

(a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan owing to each
Lender from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 
 (i) Base Rate Loans. During such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the
Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Loan shall be Converted or paid in full. 

(ii) Eurodollar Rate Loan. During such periods as such Loan is a Eurodollar Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal at
all times during each Interest Period for such Loan to the sum of (x) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Loan plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such
Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
be Converted or paid in full. 
 (b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, the Borrower shall, upon the request of the Required Lenders (or automatically during the continuance of an Event of Default under (x) Section 6.01(a) with respect to the payment of any principal of any Loan or
(y) Section 6.01(e)), pay interest (“Default Interest”) on (i) the principal amount of each Loan owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, at a
rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Loan pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any
interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per
annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum 

  
 22 









 
required to be paid on Base Rate Loans pursuant to clause (a)(i) above, provided, however, that following acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 6.01, Default
Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Required Lenders and such interest shall be payable on demand. 
 Section 2.08. Interest Rate Determination. 
 (a)
Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a), a notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09 or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest
Period”, the Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and each Lender of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii). 

(b) If, prior to the end of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall fail to
give notice of the election of a new Interest Period for such Borrowing in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the
Lenders and such Eurodollar Rate Loans will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Loans. 
 (c) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $3,000,000, such
Loans shall automatically Convert into Base Rate Loans. 
 (d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
any Event of Default, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Loans into,
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended. 
 (e) If the Agent is unable to determine the Eurodollar Rate for any
Eurodollar Rate Loans in accordance with the procedures set forth in the definition of Eurodollar Rate, 
 (i)
the Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate cannot be determined, and 

(ii) so long as such circumstance continues, (x) the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate definition shall be
disregarded, (y) each Eurodollar Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan and (z) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to Convert
Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended. 
 Section 2.09. Optional Conversion of Loans. The Borrower may
on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.12, Convert
all or any portion of the Loans of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Loans of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made only on the last day of an
Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loans, any Conversion of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b), no Conversion of any Loans shall result in more
separate Borrowings of Eurodollar Rate Loans than permitted under Section 2.02(b) and each Conversion of Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their applicable Ratable
Shares. 

  
 23 









 
Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Loans to be Converted, and (iii) if such
Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period therefor. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 
 Section 2.10. Prepayments of Loans. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice to the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) stating the date and aggregate principal
amount of a proposed prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of
such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in
the event of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c). Subject to the foregoing terms, amounts prepaid under this
Section 2.10 shall be applied as the Borrower may elect; provided that if the Borrower shall fail to specify its elected application with respect to any voluntary prepayment, such voluntary prepayment shall be applied first to the
Revolving Loans and then to the Term Loans (in direct order of remaining amortization installments), and first to Base Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Rate Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. Each such prepayment shall be applied
to the Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares. 
 Section 2.11. Increased Costs.

 (a) If, due to either (i) any Change in Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request
issued after the date hereof from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate
Loans or agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.11 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.14
shall govern) and (ii) changes after the date hereof in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its
Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory
restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness thereof for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 (b) If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law or compliance with any law or regulation or any
guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) adopted or issued after the date hereof affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such
Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by 

  
 24 









 
such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in
capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness thereof for all
purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation
pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs
or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the change or circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided, further, that, if the change or circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 Section 2.12. Illegality. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful,
or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans
hereunder, (a) each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by such Lender will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period or, if required by law, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Loan and (b) the obligation of such Lender
to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to Convert Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Lender that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided,
however, that before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a
designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be
otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Each request for a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing or a Conversion into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall, as to such affected Lender only, be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan, and all payments and
prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay or prepay the Base Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu thereof, or resulting from the Conversion
of, such Eurodollar Rate Loans. 
 Section 2.13. Payments and Computations. 

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than
11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in dollars to the Agent at the Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or
fees or commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.20 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any
other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder pursuant to
Section 2.18, and upon the Agent’s receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the applicable

Increase Date, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. Upon its
acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all
payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such
effective date directly between themselves. 
 (b) All computations of interest based on the prime rate component
of the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be
made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each
determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of
time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, facility fee or commission, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on Eurodollar Rate Loans to be
made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 
 (d)
Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment
in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so
made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the
date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 Section 2.14. Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Agent hereunder or under the Notes or
any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,
deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Agent, (i) taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in lieu of net income taxes, by
the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) is organized or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its overall net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it in
lieu of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction of such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof and (ii) any United States federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in
respect of any sum payable 

  
 26 









 
hereunder or under any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property
taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this
Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) (i) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, taxes of any kind imposed or
asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.14) imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect
thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 
 (ii) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent for any taxes (but, in the case of any Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrower or any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such
Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the Loan Parties to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the 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. The indemnity under this Section 2.14(c)(ii) shall be paid within 30 days from the date the Agent makes written
demand therefor. 
 (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the
Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory
to the Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder by or on behalf of the Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of the Borrower by a
payor that is not a United States person, if the Borrower determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to
the Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (d) and subsection (e), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of
the Internal Revenue Code. 
 (e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United
States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each
other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long as such Lender 

  
 27 









 
remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other
form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the Notes. If the form provided by a Lender at the
time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the
appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at
such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the
Lender assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, that the Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential
information. 
 (f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the
appropriate form, certificate or other document described in Section 2.14(e) ( other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form,
certificate or other document originally was required to be provided, or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under
Section 2.14(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate
or other document required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes. 
 (g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.14 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to
change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such
Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (h) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document
would be subject to United States 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 Internal
Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law
(including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the 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 paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 Section 2.15. Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

(a) If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise)
on account of the Loans owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.20 or 8.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Loans obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the
other Lenders such participations in the Loans owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess
payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to
such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by
the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its
rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

(b) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to 2.03(b) or (c), 2.02(d), 2.15(a) or 7.05(a), then
the Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Agent or any Issuing Bank to satisfy such
Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of
such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Agent in its discretion. 
 Section 2.16. Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Loans. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for
such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Loans owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender.

 (b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(d) shall include a control
account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Loans comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof. 

  
 29 









 (c) Entries made in good faith by the Agent in the Register pursuant to
subsection (b) above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to,
in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any
finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. 
 Section 2.17. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans and Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for (i) working capital,
(ii) repayment of any outstanding loans under the Existing Credit Agreement and (iii) lawful corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
 Section 2.18. Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. The Borrower may, at any time but in any event not more than twice in any calendar year, by notice to the Agent, request (x) an
increase to the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, (y) an increase to the aggregate amount of the Term Loans and/or (z) the addition of a separate term loan facility hereunder (each an “Increase”) to be
effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the Termination Date (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related notice to the Agent; provided, however, that (i) the requested Increase shall be an
amount of $20,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) in no event shall the aggregate amount of all Increases hereunder after the Effective Date exceed $75,000,000 and (iii) on the date of any request by the
Borrower for an Increase and on the related Increase Date (A) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 shall be correct on and as of such date, before and after giving effect to such Increase, as though made on and as
of such date and (B) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Increase, that constitutes a Default. 
 (a) Increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments. 

(i) If the Borrower requests that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments be increased (a
“Revolving Commitment Increase”), the Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders or Eligible Assignees as the Borrower may direct of a request by the Borrower for a Revolving Commitment Increase, which notice shall include
(A) the proposed amount of such requested Revolving Commitment Increase, (B) the proposed Increase Date and (C) the date by which Lenders wishing to participate in the Revolving Commitment Increase must commit to an increase in the
amount of their respective Commitments. Each such Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Revolving Commitment Increase (each an “Increasing Revolving Lender”) shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice to
the Agent on or prior to the relevant deadline of the amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment. The requested Revolving Commitment Increase shall be allocated among the Lenders willing to participate therein and the
applicable Assuming Lenders in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Agent. Any Lender failing to notify the Agent by the relevant deadline shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment. 

(ii) On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a requested Revolving
Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.18(a)(i) (each such Eligible Assignee, an “Assuming Revolving Lender”) shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the Revolving Credit
Commitment of each Increasing Lender for such requested Revolving 

  
 30 









 
Commitment Increase shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.18(a)(ii)) as of such Increase Date;
provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and the Agent shall have received on or before such
Increase Date the following, each dated such date: 
 (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of
Directors of the Borrower or the Executive Committee of such Board authorizing the Revolving Commitment Increase (to the extent not authorized by resolutions previously delivered pursuant hereto); 

(B) an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit
D hereto; 
 (C) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent (each an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Agent and the Borrower; and 

(D) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment in a
writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent. 
 On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions
set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.18(a)(ii), the Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Revolving Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time),
of the occurrence of the Revolving Commitment Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Revolving Lender and each Assuming Revolving Lender on such date.
Each Increasing Revolving Lender and each Assuming Revolving Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Increase Date, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in
same day funds, in the case of such Assuming Revolving Lender, an amount equal to such Assuming Revolving Lender’s ratable portion of the Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the
aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase) and, in the case of such Increasing Revolving Lender, an amount equal to the excess of (i) such Increasing Revolving
Lender’s ratable portion of the Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Revolving Commitment
Increase) over (ii) such Increasing Revolving Lender’s ratable portion of the Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment (without giving effect to the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase) as a
percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments (without giving effect to the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase). After the Agent’s receipt of such funds from each such Increasing Revolving Lender and each such Assuming Revolving
Lender, the Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds to the other Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices in an amount to each other Lender such that the aggregate amount of the outstanding
Advances owing to each Lender after 

  
 31 









 
giving effect to such distribution equals such Lender’s ratable portion of the Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase). 

(b) Increase in the Aggregate Term Loan Commitments. 

(i) If the Borrower requests an Increase in the form of (x) an increase in the aggregate amount of the Term Loans
and/or (y) the addition of a separate term loan facility hereunder (any such increase or additional facility, an “Incremental Term Loan Facility”), the Agent shall promptly notify such Lenders or Eligible Assignees as the
Borrower may direct of a request by the Borrower for an Incremental Term Loan Facility, which notice shall include (A) the proposed amount of such requested Incremental Term Loan Facility, (B) the proposed Increase Date, (C) the date
by which Lenders wishing to participate in the Incremental Term Loan Facility must commit thereto and (D) whether such Increase shall be via an increase in the aggregate amount of the existing Term Loans or the addition of a separate term loan
facility. Each such Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Incremental Term Loan Facility (each an “Increasing Term Lender”) shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice thereof to the Agent on or prior to the
relevant deadline, including the amount it is willing to commit to such Incremental Term Loan Facility. The requested Incremental Term Loan Facility shall be allocated among the Lenders willing to participate therein and the applicable Assuming
Lenders in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Agent. Any Lender failing to notify the Agent by the relevant deadline shall be deemed to have declined to commit to the requested Incremental Term Loan Facility. 

(ii) On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a requested Incremental Term
Loan Facility in accordance with Section 2.18(b)(i) (each such Eligible Assignee, an “Assuming Term Lender”) shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date pursuant to such documentation as the
Agent may reasonably require; provided, however, that the commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and the Agent shall have received on or
before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date: 
 (A) certified copies of resolutions of
the Board of Directors of the Borrower or the Executive Committee of such Board authorizing the Commitment Increase; 
 (B) an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto; 

(C) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the
Agent (each an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Agent and the Borrower; and 
 (D) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of its commitment to the Incremental Term Loan Facility in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent. 

  
 32 









 On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the
immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.18(b)(ii), the Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Term Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), of the occurrence of
the Incremental Term Loan Facility to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Term Lender and each Assuming Term Lender on such date. Each Increasing Term Lender and
each Assuming Term Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Increase Date, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Agent’s Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to such
Lender’s ratable portion of the Incremental Term Loan Facility. The Incremental Term Loan Facility shall be evidenced and implemented by such documentation as the Agent may reasonably require, it being acknowledged and agreed that each
Incremental Term Loan Facility may share ratably in any Subsidiary Guaranties. 
 Section 2.19. Defaulting Lenders.

 Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the
following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) (x) Each Defaulting Lender shall be
entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 2.04(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding amount of the Advances funded by it and
(2) its Ratable Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided cash collateral (and the Borrower shall (A) be required to pay to each Issuing Bank the amount of such fee allocable to its Letter of Credit Exposure
arising from that Defaulting Lender, (B) with respect to any facility fee that a Defaulting Lender is not entitled to receive pursuant to clause (x) above, be required to pay (without duplication of any other payment obligation of the
Borrower with respect to facility fees) to the Agent for the account of each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such facility fee otherwise payable for the account of such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in Letters of Credit that has been reallocated to such non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (iv) below and (C) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been
paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) any Letter of Credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided cash collateral satisfactory to
the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Ratable Shares allocable to
such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.19(c) with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the applicable Issuing Bank for its own account. 
 (b) subject to the last sentence of Section 8.01, the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether any group
of Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 8.01); 
 (c) if any Letter of Credit Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares but only to the
extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments; 

  
 33 









 (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can
only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day following the Borrower’s receipt of a written request from the Agent, cash collateralize for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s
obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.02 for so long as
such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding; 
 (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such
Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if the Letter of Credit Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(i) shall be
adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Shares; and 
 (v) if all or any portion of
such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Banks or any other Lender
hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letter of Credit Exposure) and letter of credit
fees payable under Section 2.04(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Exposure is reallocated and/or cash
collateralized; and 
 (d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or
increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments and Letter of Credit Commitments of the
non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.19(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in
a manner consistent with Section 2.19(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a
Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its
obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with
the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Issuing Bank to defease any risk remaining (after giving effect to any reallocation or the provision of cash collateral as provided above) to it in respect of such Lender hereunder. 

  
 34 









 In the event that the Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Banks each agree that a Defaulting
Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment and on
such date as is reasonably determined by the Agent such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable
Share (and such Lender shall be responsible for any resulting breakage costs). 
 Section 2.20. Regulation D
Compensation. Each Lender that is subject to reserve requirements of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor) may require the Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on any Eurodollar Rate
Loan of such Lender, additional interest on such Eurodollar Rate Loan at the rate per annum equal to the excess of (i) (A) the applicable Eurodollar Rate divided by (B) one minus the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage over (ii) the
rate specified in clause (i)(A). Any Lender wishing to require payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Agent and the Borrower, in which case such additional interest on the Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender shall be
payable to such Lender at the place indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at least five Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y) shall notify the Agent and the Borrower at least five Business Days
prior to each date on which interest is payable of the amount then due it under this Section. 
 ARTICLE III 

CONDITIONS TO EFFECTIVENESS AND LENDING 
 Section 3.01. Conditions Precedent to Effectiveness of Section 2.01. Section 2.01 of this Agreement shall become effective on and as of the first date (the “Effective
Date”) on which the following conditions precedent have been satisfied:

shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in such agreement or instrument, if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate, or to permit the acceleration of, the maturity of such Debt; or any such Debt shall be
declared to be due and payable, or required to be prepaid or redeemed (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment or redemption), purchased or defeased, or an offer to prepay, redeem, purchase or defease such Debt shall be required to
be made, in each case prior to the stated maturity thereof; or 
 (e) Any of (x) the Borrower, (y) any
Material Subsidiary or (z) any combination of Subsidiaries of the Borrower that, in aggregate own assets with a value of 15% or more of the total value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, shall generally not pay
its debts as such debts become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any
Subsidiary seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or composition of it or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or
reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for any substantial part of its property and, in the case of any such
proceeding instituted against it (but not instituted by it), either such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 days, or any of the actions sought in such proceeding (including, without limitation, the entry of an order
for relief against, or the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for, it or for any substantial part of its property) shall occur; or the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall take any corporate action to authorize any
of the actions set forth above in this subsection (e); or 
 (f) Judgments or orders for the payment of
money in excess of $40,000,000 in the aggregate shall be rendered against the Borrower or any Subsidiary and either (i) unstayed enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or order or (ii) there
shall be any period of 30 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; provided, however, that any such judgment or order shall not
be an Event of Default under this Section 6.01(f) if and for so long as (i) the amount of such judgment or order is covered by a valid and binding policy of insurance between the defendant and the insurer covering payment thereof and
(ii) such insurer, which shall be rated at least “A” by A.M. Best Company, has been notified of, and has not disputed the claim made for payment of, the amount of such judgment or order; or 

(g) The Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates shall incur, or shall be reasonably likely to incur liability in excess of
$25,000,000 in the aggregate as a result of one or more of the following: (i) the occurrence of any ERISA Event; (ii) the partial or complete withdrawal of the Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates from a Multiemployer Plan; or
(iii) the reorganization or termination of a Multiemployer Plan; or 

  
 46 









 (h) Any Loan Document after delivery thereof pursuant to Section 3.01
or 5.01(j) shall for any reason cease to be valid and binding on or enforceable against any Loan Party party to it, or any such Loan Party shall so state in writing; or 

(i) a Change in Control; 
 then, and in any such event, the Agent (i) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances
(other than Advances by an Issuing Bank or a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)) and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) shall at the request, or may with
the consent, of the Required Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loans and Advances, all such interest and all
such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; provided, however, that in the event of an actual
or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (A) the obligation of each Lender to make Loans (other than Advances by an Issuing Bank or a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)) and of
the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically be terminated and (B) the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of
any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 
 Section 6.02. Actions in Respect of the Letters
of Credit upon Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may with the consent, or shall at the request, of the Required Lenders, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in
Section 6.01 or otherwise, make demand upon the Borrower to, and forthwith upon such demand the Borrower will, (a) pay to the Agent on behalf of the Lenders in same day funds at the Agent’s office designated in such demand, for
deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding or (b) make such other arrangements in respect of the outstanding Letters of Credit as shall be acceptable
to the Required Lenders; provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, the Borrower will pay to the Agent on behalf of the
Lenders in same day funds for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account an amount equal to the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. If at any time the Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent and the Lenders or that the total amount of such
funds is less than the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to
the excess of (a) such aggregate Available Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account that the Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any
Letter of Credit, to the extent funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks to the extent permitted by applicable law. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or
been fully drawn upon and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such L/C Cash Collateral Account shall be returned to the Borrower.

 ARTICLE VII 
 THE AGENT 
 Section 7.01. Authorization and Action. Each Lender
hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such
powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Notes), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any
discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon
all Lenders and all holders of Notes; provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Agent agrees to
give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 7.02. Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: (i) may treat the Lender that made any Loan or Advance as the
holder of the Debt resulting therefrom until the Agent receives and accepts an Assumption Agreement entered into by an Assuming Lender as provided in Section 2.18, as the case may be, or an Assignment and Acceptance entered into by such Lender,
as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, as provided in Section 8.07; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be
liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (iii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for
any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement; (iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms,
covenants or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of any Default or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (v) shall not be
responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; and (vi) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent,
certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. 
 Section 7.03. JPMorgan and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment, the Loans and Advances made by it and the Note issued to it, JPMorgan shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement any each other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include JPMorgan in its
individual capacity. JPMorgan and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary
and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if JPMorgan were not the Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The Agent shall have no duty to disclose any information
obtained or received by it or any of its Affiliates relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary to the extent such information was obtained or received in any capacity other than as Agent. 

  
 48 









 Section 7.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the 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 decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

Section 7.05. Indemnification. 
 (a) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender’s Ratable Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or any other Loan Document (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”), provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the
Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred
by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities
under, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this
Section 7.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Agent, any Lender or a third party. 
 (b) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Issuing Banks (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender’s Ratable Share of any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Bank hereunder or in connection herewith; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse
any such Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its Ratable Share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 8.04, to the extent that such Issuing Bank
is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. 
 (c) The failure of any Lender to
reimburse the Agent or any Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its Ratable Share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Agent or such Issuing Bank as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder
to reimburse the Agent or such Issuing Bank for its Ratable Share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the Agent or an 

  
 49 









 
Issuing Bank for such other Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each
Lender contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes. 
 Section 7.06. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the
Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent with, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required
Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder
as Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. 

Section 7.07. Other Agents. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that neither the documentation agent nor any other Lender
designated as any “Agent” on the signature pages hereof has any liability hereunder other than in its capacity as a Lender. 
 ARTICLE VIII

Document and no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Issuing Banks in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, adversely affect the rights or obligations of the Issuing Banks in their capacities
as such under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or 

  
 50 









 
consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders
other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (i) the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment may not be increased or extended without its consent and (ii) the principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, Loans or reimbursement

counsel) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or

of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any Environmental Action relating in any way to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense resulted from such
Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such
investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party


  
 52 









 
thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against

the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without
limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.

the Borrower contained in Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 8.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes. 

Section 8.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and

Documents, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the applicable Loan Party after any such set-off and
application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including,
without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

assignment of Revolving Credit Commitment) and, (3) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have
consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof), and (y) will, if demanded by the Borrower (following a demand by such Lender pursuant
to Section 2.11, 2.14 or 2.20 or if such Lender is affected by an event described in Section 2.12 or is a Defaulting Lender) upon at least five Business Days’ notice to such Lender and the Agent, assign to one or more Persons all or a
portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment, the Loans and Advances owing to it, its participations in Letters of Credit and the Note or Notes held by
it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all of its rights and obligations under the relevant facility under this Agreement, (ii) except in the case of an
assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to
each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than (x) in the case of an assignment of Revolving Credit Commitment, $5,000,000 or an integral multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (y) in the case of an assignment of Term Loan Commitment, $1,000,000, in each case unless the Agent and, if no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise agree, (iii) each such
assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and shall comply with Section 8.07(h), (iv) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) shall be arranged by the Borrower after
consultation with the Agent and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such
assignment or other such assignments that together cover all of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement, (v) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) unless and until such Lender shall have received one or more payments from either the Borrower or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal
amount of the Loans owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such principal amount and all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement, (vi) the parties to each such assignment shall
execute and deliver to the Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 payable by the parties to each such
assignment, provided, however, that in the case of each assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrower, such recordation fee shall be payable by the Borrower except that no such recordation fee shall be payable in the case of
an assignment made at the request of the Borrower to an Eligible Assignee that is an existing Lender, (vii) no consent of the Borrower, the Agent or any Issuing Bank shall be required in the case of an assignment to any Affiliate of the
assigning Lender or in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender and (viii) the Agent shall not have any responsibility or liability for monitoring or enforcing any of the provisions set
forth herein with respect to Competitors. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (y) the Lender assignor

thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under
Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 8.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the
remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 
 (b) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the Lender assignor thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:
(i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with
any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan
Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or
observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of
the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will,
independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender 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 decisions in taking or not taking
action under the Loan Documents; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under
any Loan Document as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms
all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (c)
Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and
Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice
thereof to the Borrower. 
 (d) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy
of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and Advances owing
to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence of the correctness thereof and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice. 

  
 55 









 (e) Subject to Section 8.07(h), each Lender may sell participations to
one or more banks or other entities (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment, its
participation in Letters of Credit, the Loans owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment to the
Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes
of this Agreement, (iv) each Loan Party, the 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 and (v) no participant
under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such
amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal
of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. 
 (f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 8.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed
assignee or participant, any information relating to the Loan Parties furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Loan Parties; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall
agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Borrower Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender. 
 (g) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without
limitation, the Loans owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.07 or any other provision of this Agreement,
(i) no Lender shall assign or sell a participation in any of its rights or obligations hereunder unless the proposed assignee or participant represents and warrants in the applicable Assignment and Assumption or participation agreement that
such Person is not a Competitor; and (ii) if any representation and warranty described in the foregoing clause (i) shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made, then the applicable assignee or participant
(A) shall have no right to receive any information under this Agreement, except for information with respect to administrative matters (such as principal balances, borrowing requests, interest payments and loan repayments) and matters on which
such assignee or participant is entitled to vote pursuant to clause (C) below; (B) shall have no rights under Section 5.01(e); and (C) in the case of an assignee, shall have no voting rights hereunder other than with respect to
matters on which a Defaulting Lender would be entitled to vote as set forth in the last sentence of Section 8.01. 

Section 8.08. Confidentiality. Neither the Agent nor any Lender may disclose to any Person any confidential, proprietary or
non-public information of the Loan Parties furnished to the Agent or the Lenders by any Loan Party (such information being referred to collectively herein as the “Borrower Information”), except that each of the Agent and each of the
Lenders may disclose Borrower Information (i) to its and its affiliates’ employees, officers, directors, agents and advisors on a need to know basis (it 

  
 56 









 
being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information
confidential on substantially the same terms as provided herein), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process,
(iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
thereunder, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 8.08, to any assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant, (vii) to the extent such Borrower Information
(A) is or becomes generally available to the public on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.08 by the Agent or a Lender, or (B) is or becomes available to the Agent or such Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties and (viii) with the consent of any Loan Party, provided that, prior to any disclosure pursuant to (ii) or (iii) above, the disclosing party agrees that it will notify the
Borrower as soon as practical in the event of any such request for a disclosure, unless such notification shall be prohibited by applicable law or legal process. 
 Section 8.09. Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

Section 8.10. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement 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. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Agreement by telecopier or in pdf or similar file shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 Section 8.11. Jurisdiction, Etc. 
 (a) Each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. The Borrower hereby agrees and consents
to the service of process in any action or proceeding in such courts by the mailing thereof by any parties hereto by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its address specified pursuant to Section 8.02. Each of the
parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any
right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and
effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of
the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

  
 57 









 Section 8.12. No Liability of the Issuing Banks. Neither the Agent, the Lenders
nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their respective Affiliates or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any
Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in Section 2.06(b)), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft,
notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the
applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby
waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank’s payment under a Letter of Credit based upon
documents that did not substantially comply with the requirements of such Letter of Credit or such Issuing Bank’s failure to make payment under a Letter of Credit after receipt of documents that strictly complied with the requirements of such
Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of
Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

Section 8.13. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each borrower, guarantor or grantor (the “Loan
Parties”), which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Act. 

Section 8.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders hereby irrevocably waives all right to
trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the actions of the Agent or any Lender in the negotiation,
administration, performance or enforcement thereof.

 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent under 
     the Credit Agreement referred to below, and 
     to
each Lender under and as defined in such 
     Credit Agreement 

 

	 	Re:	Five Year Credit Agreement with Packaging Corporation of America 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 We have acted as special New York counsel for Packaging
Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), in connection with the Five Year Credit Agreement dated as of October 11, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, various financial
institutions and JPMorgan Chase, N.A., as Agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. This opinion letter is being rendered to you at the request of our client pursuant to
Section 3.01(h)(iv)(A) of the Credit Agreement. 
 We have examined copies, identified to our satisfaction, of the Credit
Agreement and each Note executed by the Borrower on the date hereof (together, the “Loan Documents”). In such examination, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original
documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. 
 For
purposes of this opinion letter, we also have assumed, with your permission and without independent investigation of any kind, the following: (i) the Credit Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party thereto;
(ii) the Credit Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto (other than the Borrower, as to which we express an opinion below), enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms (subject to
customary qualifications such as those set forth after our opinions below); and (iii) there are no agreements or understandings among the parties, written or oral, and no usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would,
in any such case, define, supplement or qualify the terms of the Loan Documents.

 For purposes of this opinion letter, “Applicable Law” means those laws
and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York that an attorney in the State of New York exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably expect to be applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the
Loan Documents. The term “Applicable Law” does not include, and we express no opinion as to, (i) any law, rule, regulation, ordinance, code or similar provision of law of any county, municipality or similar political subdivision of
the State of New York or any agency or instrumentality of any such county, municipality or similar political subdivision, or (ii) any law to which the Borrower may be subject as a result of the legal or regulatory status of the Agent or any
Lender or the involvement by the Agent or any Lender in the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement . 
 Upon the
basis of the foregoing and the other assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 
 1. Each
Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms. 
 2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by the Borrower do not violate, contravene or constitute a default under any provision of Applicable Law. 

3. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of or exemption by any government or public body or authority is
required under Applicable Law to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents. 
 4.
Assuming that, after applying the proceeds of the Loans, Margin Stock constitutes not more than 25% of the value of all assets of the Borrower that are subject to any restriction in the Loan Documents on sale, pledge or other disposal by the
Borrower, the making of the credit extensions to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and the use of the proceeds thereof, will not result in a violation of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

 Our opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 

A. The opinion expressed above as to the enforceability in accordance with its terms of any Loan Document is subject to
the exception that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, equitable subordination, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, by the
availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, and by general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 B. We express no opinion as to any provision of any Loan
Document that authorizes the Agent or any Lender, or any purchaser of a participation interest from any party, to set off or apply any deposit, indebtedness or other property against any participation interest. 








 Mayer Brown LLP 
 October 11, 2011

 C. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of
any Loan Document to the extent such provision purports to waive any objection to the laying of venue or any claim that an action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum or purports to waive the right to a jury trial. Without
limiting the foregoing, we note that (i) under NYCPLR §510 a New York State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial; and (ii) under 28 U.S.C. §1404(a) a United States District Court has discretion to transfer an
action from one Federal court to another. 
 D. We express no opinion as to: (i) provisions restricting
access to legal or equitable remedies; (ii) provisions that purport to establish evidentiary standards; (iii) provisions relating to waivers, severability, contribution or delay or omission of enforcement of rights or remedies;
(iv) provisions purporting to convey rights to Persons other than parties to the Loan Documents; (v) any provision that provides that a Loan Document may only be amended, waived or modified in writing; (vi) any agreement by the
Borrower to the subject matter jurisdiction of a United States federal court or to be served with process by service in a particular manner; (vii) whether any court outside the State of New York would honor the choice of New York as the
governing law of any Loan Document; or (viii) the effect of the law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York wherein any Lender may be located or wherein the enforcement of any Loan Document may be sought that limits the rates of
interest, fees or other charges legally chargeable or collectible. 
 E. We express no opinion as to compliance
with, or any governmental or regulatory filing, approval, authorization, license or consent required by or under, any Federal or State (i) environmental law, (ii) antitrust law, (iii) taxation law, (iv) health or safety law,
(v) patent, trademark or copyright law, (vi) receivership or conservatorship law, (vii) except as set forth in opinion paragraph 4, securities law, (viii) zoning, building, permitting, land use or subdivision law, or
(ix) labor, pension or employee benefit law, or any rule or regulation relating to any of the foregoing. 

F. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any indemnification provision of the Credit Agreement insofar as such
provision contravenes public policy or might require indemnification or payments to any Person with respect to any litigation determined adversely to such Person, any loss, cost or expense arising out of the negligence or willful misconduct of any
Person or any violation by any Person of statutory duties or general principles of equity. 
 G. We express no
opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of any Loan Document imposing penalties or forfeitures. 
 H.
We have made no examination of any financial or accounting matters, including the ability of the Borrower to comply with any financial covenant or with any financial limitation on indebtedness, and we express no opinion with respect to any such
matter.

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent under 

    the Credit Agreement referred to below, and 
     to each Lender under and as defined in such 

    Credit Agreement 
  

	 	Re:	Five Year Credit Agreement with Packaging Corporation of America 

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 As General Counsel of Packaging Corporation of America, a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), I have represented the Borrower in connection with the Five Year Credit Agreement dated as of October 11, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, various
financial institutions and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. This opinion letter is being rendered to you pursuant to
Section 3.01(h)(iv)(B) of the Credit Agreement. 
 In connection with this opinion letter, I, or members of my staff, have
examined (i) the Credit Agreement and each Note executed by the Borrower on the date hereof (together, the “Loan Documents”) and (ii) originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such
(x) certificates of public officials, (y) certificates of officers and representatives of the Borrower, and (z) other records, agreements, instruments and documents, and I have made such other investigations, as I have deemed relevant
or necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, I have, when relevant facts were not independently established by me, relied upon certificates and oral or written statements of the
Borrower or its officers or of public officials. 
 I am a member of the bar of the State of Illinois and I do not express any
opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the applicable laws of the State of Illinois, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “Delaware Act”) and the federal laws of the United States. 

Based upon the foregoing and upon such investigation as I have deemed necessary, I am of the opinion that: 

1. The Borrower is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. 







 2. Each Loan Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower.

 3. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Loan Documents are within the corporate powers of the
Borrower and do not violate, contravene or constitute a default under (i) the Borrower’s certificate of incorporation or by-laws, (ii) any indenture, credit agreement or other material contract binding upon the Borrower or its assets
or (iii) any judgment, injunction, order or decree applicable to the Borrower. 
 4. There is no action, suit,
investigation, litigation or other proceeding affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is pending or, to my knowledge, threatened before any court, governmental agency or arbitrator that could be reasonably expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect or that purports to adversely affect the legality, validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby. 

5. The Borrower is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, as
such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 The opinions expressed herein are effective only as
of the date of this opinion letter. I do not assume responsibility for updating this opinion letter as of any date subsequent to the date of this opinion letter, and I assume no responsibility for advising you of (i) any change with respect to
any matter described in this opinion letter or (ii) the discovery subsequent to the date of this opinion letter of factual information not previously known to me pertaining to events occurring prior to the date of this opinion letter.

 With respect to any matter herein relating to the Delaware Act, I draw your attention to the fact that I am not admitted to
practice law in the State of Delaware and do not purport to be an expert in the laws of such jurisdiction; accordingly, any opinion relating to the Delaware Act is based the text of the Delaware Act (and not any commentary or case law with respect
thereto) and my prior involvement in matters concerning the Delaware Act. 
 This opinion letter is furnished solely to you in
connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or relied upon by any other Person for any purpose, without (in each case) my prior written consent;
provided that Persons who subsequently become Lenders in accordance with Section 8.07 of the Credit Agreement may rely on this opinion letter as of the date hereof as if this opinion letter were addressed to them.

 SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY 

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY dated as of             ,
             made by the Persons listed on the signature pages hereof under the caption “Subsidiary Guarantors” and the Additional Guarantors (as defined in
Section 8(b)) (such Persons so listed and the Additional Guarantors being, collectively, the “Guarantors” and, individually, each a “Guarantor”) in favor of the Agent and the Lenders (as defined in the Credit
Agreement referred to below). 
 PRELIMINARY STATEMENT. Packaging Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (the
“Borrower”), is party to a Five Year Credit Agreement dated as of October 11, 2011 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; the
capitalized terms defined therein and not otherwise defined herein being used herein as therein defined) with certain Lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Agent for such Lenders. Each Guarantor may receive, directly or indirectly, a
portion of the proceeds of the Loans under the Credit Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. It is a condition to the making of Loans and the issuance of Letters
of Credit by the Lenders under the Credit Agreement from time to time that each Material Subsidiary of the Borrower shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for other good and valuable consideration, each Guarantor, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor, hereby agrees as follows: 

Section 1. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. 
 (a) Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration,
demand or otherwise, of all obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under or in respect of (x) the Loan Documents, (y) any agreement to provide cash management services, including treasury, depository, overdraft,
credit or debit card, credit card processing, purchase card, ACH transactions, electronic funds transfer and other cash management arrangements (a “Secured Cash Management Agreement”) and (z) any Hedge Agreement (a
“Secured Hedge Agreement”), in the case of such cash management agreement or Hedge Agreement, between the Borrower and any Person that is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender at the time that it becomes a party to such agreement
(including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments or renewals of any or all of the foregoing obligations), whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums,
fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel)
incurred by the Agent or any Lender in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document. For purposes of this Guaranty and any Guaranty Supplement, (i) the term “Lender” shall include any Person that is a Lender or
an Affiliate of a Lender at the time that it becomes a party to a Secured Hedge Agreement or a Secured Cash Management Agreement and (ii) the term “Loan Documents” shall include Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management
Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to the Agent or any Lender under
or in respect of the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such other Loan Party. 








 EXHIBIT E 
 FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY 
  

 (b) Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Agent
and each Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law (as hereinafter
defined), the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing
intention, the Agent, the Lenders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the obligations of such Guarantor under
this Guaranty not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means any proceeding of the type referred to in Section 6.01(e) of the Credit Agreement or Title 11, U.S. Code,
or any similar foreign, federal or state law for the relief of debtors. 
 (c) Each Guarantor hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that in the event any payment shall be required to be made to the Agent or any Lender under this Guaranty or any other guaranty, such Guarantor will contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law and
subject to the limitation of liability provided in the preceding clause (b), such amounts to each other Guarantor and each other guarantor so as to maximize the aggregate amount paid to the Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of the Loan
Documents. 
 Section 2. Guaranty Absolute. 
 Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in
any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations
of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Borrower or
any other Loan Party or whether the Borrower or any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor
hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following (except as shall be required by applicable law or statute and cannot be waived): 

(a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

 (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any other Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in
the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; 
 (c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed
Obligations;

Section 10. No Waiver; Remedies. 
 No failure on the part of the Agent or any Lender 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

 Section 11. Right of Set-off. 
 Upon (a) the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement to authorize the Agent to declare the Loans due and payable pursuant to the

obligations of such Guarantor now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether the Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be

(a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of a Default (including the commencement and

payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses
accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated
Obligations. 
 (c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default (including
the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor shall, if the Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as
trustee for the Lenders and deliver such payments to the Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or
affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Guaranty by telecopier shall be effective as delivery of an
original executed counterpart of this Guaranty.

in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this
Guaranty or any other Loan Document in the courts of any jurisdiction.
