pursuant to this definition, then such ratio or amount shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Pro Forma Event had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period. 

(c) For purposes of this Section 1.09, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any Pro Forma Event, any calculation on a Pro
Forma Basis shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower and, at the request of the Administrative Agent, set forth in an Officer’s Certificate. 

(d) For purposes of determining whether the incurrence, issuance or making of any Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock,
Equity Interest, Restricted Payment, Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or 

  
 53 









 
discontinued operation is permitted hereunder, Total Assets, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio shall be determined at the time such Indebtedness,
Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock, Equity Interest, Restricted Payment, Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued operation is incurred, issued or made, and no Default shall be deemed to have
occurred solely as a result of a change in Total Assets, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio or the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as applicable, occurring after the time such Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock, Preferred Stock, Equity Interest,
Restricted Payment, Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or discontinued operation is incurred, issued or made. 
 ARTICLE 2 
 THE CREDITS 

Section 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, each Lender agrees, severally and not
jointly, to make a Term Loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Term Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 

Section 2.02. Loans.  
 (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any
Lender to make any Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other
Lender). The Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) in the case of Eurodollar Term Loans, an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $5,000,000, (ii) in the case of Base Rate Term
Loans, an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000. 
 (b) Subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15, each Borrowing
shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such
Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same
time; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than twelve Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time. 

(c) Subject to Section 2.03, each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 1:00 p.m. and the Administrative Agent shall promptly wire transfer the amounts so received to an account designated by
the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders. 

  
 54 









 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent
on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have
so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative 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 to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate
per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the Loans comprising such Borrowing at the time and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Base Rate plus
the Applicable Percentage for Base Rate Term Loans. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement and
(x) the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease and (y) if the Borrower pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so paid shall
constitute a repayment of such Borrowing by such amount. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the
Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Term Loan Maturity Date. 
 Section 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar
Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m. three (3) Business Days before a proposed Borrowing, and (b) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m. on the requested date of a proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic request
shall be irrevocable, shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or fax to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request and shall specify the following information: (i) whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or a
Base Rate Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; (iv) the amount of such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing
is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto; provided, however, that notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set
forth in Section 2.02. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b), if no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Eurodollar Borrowing. If no Interest Period with
respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of 1 month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any
notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing. 

  
 55 









 Section 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans.  

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on the Term Loan
Maturity Date, the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan. 
 (b) 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 made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to
time under this Agreement. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the
Borrower, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, if applicable, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (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 Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower or any Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the
existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of
the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by
it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent. 
 Section 2.05. Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own
account, the administrative agency fees set forth in the Fee Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein (the “Administration Fee”). The Administration Fee shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed in a year of 360 days, and shall be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for its own account. Once paid, none of the Administration Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. 

Section 2.06. Interest on Loans.  
 (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage in effect
from time to time with respect to such Borrowing. 

  
 56 









 (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar
Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect or, pursuant to Section 2.10(b), deemed to be in effect, for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Percentage in effect from
time to time with respect to such Borrowing. 
 (c) Interest, including interest payable pursuant to Section 2.07, shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days (or, with respect to the Base Rate, over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) and shall be calculated from and including the date of the relevant Borrowing to,
but excluding, the date of repayment thereof. Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Base Rate or Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for each
Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

Section 2.07. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment when due of any principal of or interest on any
Loan (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), by acceleration or otherwise, then, upon the request of the Required Lenders, until such defaulted amount shall have been paid in full, to the extent permitted by law, such overdue amount
shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on demand, (a) in the case of principal of a Loan, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) in all other
cases, at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would be applicable to a Base Rate Term Loan plus 2.00% per annum. 

Section 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two (2) Business Days
prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in
the London interbank market, or that the rates at which dollar deposits are being offered in the London interbank market will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any participating Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during
such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written or fax notice of such determination
to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the participating Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (which the
Administrative Agent agrees to give promptly after such circumstances no longer exist), any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent
under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 Section 2.09. Termination of Commitments.
The Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Term Loans on the Closing Date. 

Section 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior written or
fax notice substantially in the form of the 

  
 57 









 
Conversion/Continuation Notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice substantially in the form of the Conversion/Continuation Notice) to the Administrative Agent
(i) not later than 1:00 p.m., on the requested date of conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into a Base Rate Borrowing and (ii) not later than 1:00 p.m., three (3) Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to
convert any Base Rate Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, subject in each case to the following: 

(a) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the
Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing; 
 (b) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing
shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type; 

(c) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent recording, for the account of such Lender, the Type of
such Loan resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the
Borrower at the time of conversion; and 
 (d) if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16. 
 Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be substantially in the form of the Conversion/Continuation Notice and shall be irrevocable (subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15) and shall refer to
this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or a Base Rate
Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect
thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of 1 month’s duration. The
Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this
Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued into a Eurodollar Borrowing with an Interest Period of 1 month’s duration. 

  
 58 









 Section 2.11. Repayment of Borrowings. To the extent not previously paid, all
Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment. All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject
to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. 
 Section 2.12. Optional Prepayment. 

 (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, upon at
least three (3) Business Days’ prior written or fax notice by the Borrower (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or written or fax notice by the Borrower (or telephone notice
promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) on the date of prepayment in the case of Base Rate Loans, to the Administrative Agent before 1:00 p.m.; provided, however, that (i) with respect to Eurodollar Terms Loans each partial
prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) with respect to Base Rate Term Loans each partial payment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not
less than $500,000. 
 (b) Optional prepayments of Term Loans and any Incremental Term Loans shall be applied ratably among the
outstanding Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans. 
 (c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the
principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided that any such notice
delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financing arrangements, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.16 but otherwise without premium or penalty (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.12(d) below). All
Eurodollar Loan prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. 

(d) Each prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.13(d) shall be accompanied by a premium equal to: 

(i) if such prepayment is made prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, the Make-Whole Premium with respect to
the principal amount of such Loan being prepaid; 
 (ii) if such prepayment is made on or after the second
anniversary of the Closing Date but prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 3.00% of the principal amount of the Loans so prepaid, 
 (iii) if such prepayment is made on or after the third anniversary of the Closing Date but prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, 1.00% of the principal amount of the Loans so prepaid; and


  
 59 









 (iv) if such prepayment is made on or after the fourth anniversary of the
Closing Date, 0% of the principal amount of the Loans so prepaid. 
 Section 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. 

 (a) [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 (b) Not later than the tenth Business Day following the receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Prepayment Asset Sale or Prepayment Property
Loss Event, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiaries with respect thereto (subject to the restrictions set forth herein) to prepay outstanding Term Loans in
accordance with Section 2.13(e); provided, however, that, except as provided in the next sentence, if (x) prior to the date any such prepayment is required to be made, the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent of its
intent to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds in assets of a kind then used or usable in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and (y) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such notice, and
no Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article 7 (each, a “Specified Default”) shall have occurred and shall be continuing at the time of proposed reinvestment (unless, in the case of such Specified
Default, such reinvestment is made pursuant to a binding commitment entered into at a time when no Specified Default was continuing), then the Borrower shall not be required to prepay Term Loans hereunder in respect of such Net Cash Proceeds to the
extent that such Net Cash Proceeds are so reinvested within 12 months after the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (or, within such 12 month period, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries enters into a binding commitment to so
reinvest in such Net Cash Proceeds, and such Net Cash Proceeds are so reinvested within 180 days after the expiration of such 12 month period); provided, however, that if any Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested on or prior to the last
day of the applicable application period, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five (5) Business Days to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth above (without regard to the immediately preceding proviso). 

(c) No later than the tenth Business Day following the delivery of the Section 5.04 Financials (commencing with the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2012), the Borrower shall prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for
the fiscal year then ended over (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12 and Section 2.13(b) plus the aggregate principal amount of First Lien Term Loans and First Lien Revolving
Loans (to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the First Lien Revolving Credit Commitments) prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12 and Section 2.13(b) of the First Lien Credit Agreement, as applicable, during such fiscal year or on
or prior to the date such payment is required to be made (without duplication in any succeeding period), in each case to the extent such prepayments are not funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than revolving Indebtedness).

 (d) In the event that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or
incurrence of Indebtedness (other than any cash proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness permitted pursuant to 

  
 60 









 
Section 6.01), the Borrower shall no later than the tenth Business Day next following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay
outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(e). In addition, if at any time the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries makes a voluntary or optional prepayment, repurchase or redemption with respect to any Additional Pari
Passu Notes or any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, the Borrower shall, simultaneously therewith, prepay a percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans equal to the percentage of the
aggregate principal amount of Additional Pari Passu Notes (or series thereof) or Refinancing Indebtedness so prepaid. 
 (e) All
prepayments required by Sections 2.13(b), (c) and (d) shall be applied to the repayment of the Term Loans until paid in full. Mandatory prepayments of Term Loans and any Incremental Term Loans, in each case, required by Sections 2.13(b),
(c) and (d) shall be applied ratably among the outstanding Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans. 
 (f) With respect
to any prepayment required by Sections 2.13(b), (c) and (d), the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, give the Term Lenders the option to elect not to accept all or a portion of such prepayment. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of its election to grant such option to the Term Lenders on or before the applicable date set forth in Section 2.13(b), (c) or (d) for such prepayment. Promptly after the receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall
provide written notice to the Term Lenders of the option granted by the Borrower. Any Term Lender declining such prepayment shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent by 1:00 p.m. no later than two (2) Business Days after the
date of such notice from the Administrative Agent. On such date the Administrative Agent shall then provide written notice to the Borrower of the Lenders declining such prepayment, the amount so declined and the aggregate amount of such prepayment.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 2.13(b), (c) or (d) within two (2) Business Days after its receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the
aggregate amount of such prepayment, and amounts declined by the Term Lenders shall be retained by the Borrower. 
 (g)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no prepayments of Loans shall be required or permitted pursuant to this Section 2.13 until the Discharge of First Lien Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) has occurred (except
amounts declined by the First Lien Term Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(f) of the First Lien Credit Agreement shall be required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment hereunder). 

Section 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances.  

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve,
special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate); subject any Lender to any Taxes
with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made hereunder, or change the basis of taxation of payments to that Lender in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.20


  
 61 









 
and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by the Lender); or impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement
or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, for such additional costs
incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Loans purchased by such
Lender pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding
company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any
such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
Lender or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be delivered to the Borrower, shall describe the applicable Change in Law, the resulting costs incurred or reduction suffered (including a
calculation thereof), certifying that such Lender is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender, the amount shown as due on any such certificate
delivered by it within 30 days after its receipt of the same. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not
be under any obligation to compensate any Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request; provided further,
that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender
regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed; provided that if, after the payment of any amounts by the Borrower under this Section, any Change in Law
in respect of which a payment was made is thereafter determined to be invalid or inapplicable to the relevant Lender, then such Lender shall, within 30 days after such determination, repay any amounts paid to it by the Borrower hereunder in respect
of such Change in Law. 

  
 62 









 (e) Except as expressly stated in this Section 2.14, this Section 2.14 shall not
apply to any Change in Law with respect to Taxes and any such Change in Law shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.20. 

Section 2.15. Change in Legality.  
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as
contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent: 
 (i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and Base
Rate Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to convert a Base Rate Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an
additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan (or a request to continue a Base Rate Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan, as the
case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and 
 (ii) such Lender may require that
all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender shall be converted to Base Rate Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in
paragraph (b) below. 
 In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and
prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Base Rate Loans made by
such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans. 
 (b) For purposes of this
Section 2.15, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice
shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower. Such Lender shall withdraw such notice promptly following any date on which it becomes lawful for such Lender to make and maintain Eurodollar Loans or give effect to its obligations as
contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan. 
 Section 2.16. Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify
each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender
receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan, or the


  
 63 









 
conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be
made by such Lender (including any Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to
in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the
excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in
effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period (exclusive of any
loss of anticipated profits). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 Section 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each Borrowing, each
payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders entitled
thereto in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their respective applicable outstanding Loans). 

Section 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien,
setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim received
by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans
shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase
price for, a participation in the Loans of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and participations in Loans held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all
Loans then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff
or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such
purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to
any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a 


  
 64 









 
participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan deemed
to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to
the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 2.19. Payments.  

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and
under any other Loan Document not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date when due in immediately available dollars, without condition or deduction for any setoff (except as otherwise provided herein), defense, recoupment or counterclaim. Each such payment
(other than amounts payable under Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 or 2.21, which shall be paid directly to the Person entitled thereto) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices specified in Section 9.01. All payments hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents shall be made in dollars. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. All payments
received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall, at the Administrative Agent’s option, be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 

(b) (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of
Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.03 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with
and at the time required by Section 2.03) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the
Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and
(B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.


  
 65 









 (ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on
such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment
to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error. 
 (c) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such
Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Event set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or
waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 (d) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.05(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any
payment under Section 9.05(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or
to make its payment under Section 9.05(c). 
 Section 2.20. Taxes.  

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if an applicable withholding agent is required to withhold or deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from any such
payment, then (i) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions or withholdings have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section) the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such
deductions or withholdings and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

  
 66 









 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or
any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section), and any Other Taxes, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, (but not penalties or interest attributable solely to the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or material breach of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by, the Administrative Agent or a
Lender)) in each case, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower
by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself or a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d)
Each Lender shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities,
penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Borrower or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental Authority as a
result of the failure by such Lender, to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any documentation required to be delivered by such Lender, to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection
(f) or (g) as applicable. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the
Administrative Agent under this clause (d). The agreements in this clause (d) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. 
 (e) As soon as practicable after any
payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of the receipt issued by such Governmental Authority reasonably acceptable
to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(f) Each Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date it becomes a party to
the Agreement either (A) 2 accurate and complete originally executed copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN (or successor form), (B) 2 accurate and complete originally


  
 67 









 
executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or (C) 2 accurate and complete originally executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or successor form) together with any required
attachments, certifying, in any case, such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any applicable payments hereunder and (ii) provide to the Borrower (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent) a new Form W-8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form) or Form W-8IMY (or successor form) together with any required attachments upon (A) the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form
to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder, (B) the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered
by it and (C) from time to time at the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or, in each case, promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so; provided that any Foreign Lender
that is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption” shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” in a form that is customary and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent together with a Form W-8BEN.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Foreign Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. 

(g) Any Lender that is a United States person, as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the times specified in Section 2.20(f), two (2) accurate and complete original signed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any successor form that such Person is entitled to provide at such time, in order to
qualify for an exemption from United States federal backup withholding requirements. 
 (h) If the Administrative Agent or a
Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise
to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any taxes imposed on such refund or interest) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that (i) the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other
charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority and (ii) nothing herein
contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or the Administrative Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or the Administrative Agent to claim any tax refund or to make available its tax
returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or the Administrative Agent to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits,
reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. 

  
 68 









 (i) If any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, that it is
entitled to receive a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall notify the Borrower thereof and, upon
the Borrower’s request therefor, (i) use its commercially reasonable efforts (at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense) to apply for and receive such refund and (ii) if such refund is so received, upon receipt thereof promptly
remit such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund) to the Borrower, net of
all out of pocket costs and expenses of such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund or the relevant portion thereof), provided
that notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall such Lender or Administrative Agent be required to (i) take any action that such Lender or Administrative Agent determines, in its sole discretion, might reasonably be expected to cause it
to suffer any material economic, legal, business or regulatory disadvantage, including by prejudicing or limiting its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remission or repayments to which it may be entitled or (ii) make
available its tax returns or any other information that it deems, in its sole discretion, to be confidential, or disclose any other information relating to its tax affairs or any computation in respect thereof. If, after delivery of any refund to
the Borrower under this clause (i), the relevant Lender or Administrative Agent determines that it is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority, the Borrower agrees, upon the request of such Lender or Administrative Agent,
promptly to return such refund to such party. Such Lender or Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing
authority (provided that such Lender or Administrative Agent may delete any information therein that such Lender or Administrative Agent deems confidential in its reasonable discretion). Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of any
Lender or the Administrative Agent to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit. 
 Section 2.21.
Assignment of Commitments under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate.  
 (a) In the event (i) any Lender requests
compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or (v) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrower that requires the consent of
all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 9.08 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of Loans in accordance with the terms of Section 2.27 and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by
the Required Lenders (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”), the Borrower may, at its sole cost and expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, either: 

(x) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign 100% of its relevant
Commitments and the principal 

  
 69 









 
of its relevant outstanding Loans (at par, subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d)) plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees pursuant to Section 9.04 (with the assignment fee
to be waived in such instance) and all of its relevant rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (which Persons shall otherwise be subject to the approval rights set forth in Section 9.04(b)); provided that
(A) the replacement Lender shall agree to the consent, waiver or amendment to which the Non-Consenting Lender did not agree, (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a
replacement Lender or other such Person, (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments and (D) with respect to any Non-Consenting Lender referred to in clause(a)(v) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender a prepayment premium, if applicable, with respect to the Loans
so replaced as if such replacement were a voluntary prepayment subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d); or 
 (y) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the Loans held by such Lender as of such termination date. 

Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to
execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in respect of the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21.

 (b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender delivers a notice described in
Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not
require such Lender to take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be material) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by
the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or
enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in
connection with any such filing or assignment. 
 Section 2.22. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

Section 2.23. [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 Section 2.24. Incremental Credit Extensions.  
 (a) The Borrower may
at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request one or more additional tranches of term 

  
 70 









 
loans under this Agreement (the “Incremental Term Loans” or a “Credit Increase”); provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the
effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would exist immediately after giving effect thereto. Each Credit Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than
$10,000,000 (or such lower amount that either represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence or is acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount
of the Credit Increases shall not exceed (A) $100,000,000 minus the aggregate principal amount of any Additional Pari Passu Notes and First Lien Additional Indebtedness incurred on or prior to the applicable Incremental Facility Closing Date
plus (B) such additional amount that may be incurred if after giving effect to such Credit Increase and any contemporaneous Additional Pari Passu Notes (but without netting of any proceeds received as cash or Cash Equivalents from such Credit
Increase and any Additional Pari Passu Notes for purposes of clause (ii) of the definition of Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio) and the use of the proceeds thereof, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis shall be less than or
equal to 6.25 to 1.00; provided further, that (1) Credit Increases shall rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with and have the same guarantees as the then-existing Term Loans, (2) Incremental Term
Loans shall not mature earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date, (3) Incremental Term Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then-existing Term Loans,
(4) Incremental Term Loans shall be treated in the same manner as the Term Loans for purposes of Section 2.13(e), (5) no Credit Increase shall have an Applicable Percentage (or other interest rate spread equivalent) applicable to the
Incremental Term Loans that exceeds the Applicable Percentage then existing with respect to the Term Loans by more than 0.25% per annum unless the Applicable Percentage with respect to the Term Loans is increased so that the Applicable
Percentage (or other interest rate spread equivalent) applicable to the Incremental Term Loans does not exceed the Applicable Percentage then existing with respect to the Term Loans by more than 0.25% per annum; provided that in
determining the Applicable Percentage (or other interest rate spread equivalent) applicable to the Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans, (x) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront or similar fees (which shall be deemed
to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Term Lenders or with respect to the Incremental Term Loans in the primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life
to maturity or, if less, the remaining life to maturity of the Incremental Term Loans), (y) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to the Arrangers (or their Affiliates) in connection with the Term Loans or to one or more arrangers
(or their Affiliates) of the Incremental Term Loans shall be excluded and (z) if the Eurodollar rate in respect of such Incremental Term Loans includes a floor greater than the floor applicable to the Term Loans under the definition of
“Adjusted Eurodollar Rate”, such excess amount shall be equated to interest rate spread for purposes of determining any increase to the Applicable Percentage applicable to the Term Loans, to the extent an increase in the interest rate
floor in the then-existing Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the then-existing Term Loans shall be increased
to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors and (6) shall have such other terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loan. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to
this Section 2.24 shall set forth 

  
 71 









 
the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Credit Increase. Incremental Term Loans may be made by any existing Lender or by any Additional Lender; provided that the relevant
Persons under Section 9.04(b) shall have consented to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans, if such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans to such Lender or
Additional Lender. 
 (b) Commitments in respect of Credit Increases shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to
an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the
Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of
each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(a), (b) and (c) (in each case, it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in such Section 4.01 shall be deemed to
refer to the effective date of such Incremental Amendment). The Borrower may use the proceeds of Credit Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Increase unless it so agrees in
its sole discretion. 
 (c) The Borrower may at any time from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the
Administrative Agent, request one or more series of senior unsecured notes or senior secured notes that will be secured by the Collateral (and guaranteed by any Guarantor) on a pari passu basis with the Secured Obligations, that are issued or made
in lieu of any Incremental Term Loans pursuant to an indenture or a note purchase agreement or otherwise and any extensions, renewals, refinancings and replacements thereof (the “Additional Pari Passu Notes”); provided that
both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any issuance of Additional Pari Passu Notes, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would exist immediately after giving effect thereto. Each issuance of Additional Pari Passu
Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 (or such lower amount that either represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence or is acceptable to the Administrative Agent).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the Additional Pari Passu Notes shall not exceed (A) $100,000,000 minus the aggregate principal amount of any Credit Increase and First Lien Additional Indebtedness
incurred on or prior to the date of issuance of such Additional Pari Passu Notes plus (B) such additional amount that may be incurred if after giving effect to such issuance of Additional Pari Passu Notes and any contemporaneous Credit Increase
(but without netting of any proceeds received as cash or Cash Equivalents from such Additional Pari Passu Notes and any contemporaneous Credit Increase for purposes of clause (ii) of the definition of Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio) and the
use of the proceeds thereof, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis shall be less than or equal to 6.25 to 1.00; provided further that (1) any Additional Pari Passu Notes that are secured shall (A) rank pari passu
in right of payment and with respect to security on the Collateral pari passu with the Obligations under the Loan Documents, (B) not be secured by any Lien on 

  
 72 









 
any asset of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary other than any asset constituting Collateral, (C) shall be secured by security agreements relating to such Additional Pari Passu Notes
substantially the same as the Security Documents (with such differences as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and the holders thereof (or the trustee or other representative under the indenture or other agreement governing such
Additional Pari Passu Notes on such holders’ behalf) shall have executed and delivered and be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement , (2) such Additional Pari Passu Notes shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than a Loan Party,
(3) such Additional Pari Passu Notes shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date with respect to Term Loans at such time, (4) such Additional Pari Passu Notes shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the
remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then-existing Term Loans, (5) such Additional Pari Passu Notes shall not have any mandatory prepayment provisions (other than provisions related to customary asset sale, casualty or
condemnation events and change of control offers and customary acceleration rights upon an event of default) that could result in prepayments of such Additional Pari Passu Notes prior to the Term Loans then in effect, (6) such Additional Pari
Passu Notes shall have pricing, fees (including upfront fees and OID), optional prepayment, redemption premiums and subordination terms as determined by the Borrower and the investors providing such Additional Pari Passu Notes and (7) such
Additional Pari Passu Notes have terms and conditions (except as otherwise provided in clauses (5) and (6) above), taken as a whole, that are substantially identical to or no more favorable to the investors providing such Additional Pari
Passu Notes than the terms and conditions of this Agreement (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date). 
 (d) This Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.08 to the contrary. 
 Section 2.25. Defaulting Lenders.  
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i) That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.08 and the definitions of “Required Facility Lenders” and “Required Lenders”. 

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of
that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 7 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06), shall be applied
at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long
as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this 

  
 73 









 
Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and
released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any
Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as
a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting
Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate
share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders having Term Loan Commitments on a pro
rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be
deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (b) If the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date
specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may
determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made
retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties,
no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 2.26. Application of Proceeds.  
 (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, and any
payments received by the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent,
be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral for, and/or (then or at any time thereafter) applied in full or in part by the Collateral Agent against, the Secured Obligations in the following order or priority: first, to the payment of all
costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization, including reasonable compensation

to the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and all other expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection therewith, and all amounts for which
the Collateral Agent is entitled to indemnification under such Security Documents and hereunder and all advances made by the Collateral Agent thereunder for the account of the applicable Loan Party, and to the payment of all costs and expenses paid
or incurred by Collateral Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under such Security Document or hereunder, all in accordance with the terms hereof; and second, to the extent of any excess such proceeds, to the payment
of all other Secured Obligations for the ratable benefit of the holders thereof; and third, to the extent of any excess such proceeds, to the payment to or upon the order of such Loan Party or Guarantor, as applicable, or to whosoever may be
lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 
 (b) Each Lender agrees that the
priority set forth above is an agreement among them for value received that is independent of the Loan Parties, and that such agreement shall be enforceable as among them in a case under Debtor Relief Laws. Each Lender further agrees that all
references above to “interest” shall be deemed to include post-petition interest arising under Debtor Relief Laws. 

Section 2.27. [Intentionally Omitted]. 
 Section 2.28. Extension of Term Loan Maturity Date.  
 (a) At any time
and from time to time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Term Lenders or any Additional Lender, as applicable), request an extension of the Term Loan Maturity Date or
the maturity date applicable to any Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, then in effect (such existing Term Loan Maturity Date being the “Existing Term Loan Maturity Date” and such existing maturity date applicable to any
Incremental Term Loans being the “Existing Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date”) to a date specified in such notice. Within 10 Business Days of delivery of such notice (or such other period as the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall mutually agree upon), each Term Lender or Additional Lender, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it consents to such extension (which consent may be given or withheld in such Term Lender’s or Additional
Lender’s, as applicable, sole and absolute discretion). Any Term Lender or Additional Lender, as applicable, not responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower and the Term Lenders or the Additional Lenders of the Term Lenders’ or the Additional Lenders’ responses, as applicable. 
 (b) The Term Loan Maturity Date or maturity date applicable to any Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, shall be extended only with respect to the Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as applicable,
held by the Term Lenders or Additional Lenders, as applicable, that have consented thereto (the Term Lenders or Additional Lenders, as applicable, that so consent being the “Extending Term Lenders” and the Term Lenders or Additional
Lenders, as applicable, that declined being the “Non-Extending Term Lenders”) (it being understood and agreed that, except for the consents of the Extending Term Lenders, no other consents shall be required hereunder for such


  
 75 









 
extensions). If so extended, (i) the scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans held by the Extending Term Lenders, shall be extended to the date specified in the
notice referred to in Section 2.28(a) above, which shall become the new Term Loan Maturity Date (such date, the “Extended Term Loan Maturity Date”) and (ii) the scheduled maturity date with respect to any Incremental Term
Loans held by the Extending Term Lenders, shall be extended to the date specified in the notice referred to in Section 2.28(a) above, which shall become the new maturity date applicable to such Incremental Term Loans (such date, the
“Extended Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date”). The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall promptly confirm to (y) the Term Lenders such extension, specifying the effective date of such extension (the “Term Loan
Extension Effective Date”), the then scheduled Term Loan Maturity Date and the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date (after giving effect to such extension) and (z) the applicable Additional Lenders such extension, specifying the effective
date of such extension (the “Incremental Term Loan Extension Effective Date”), the then scheduled maturity date applicable to such Incremental Term Loans and the Extended Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date (after giving effect to
such extension). The interest margins and/or “floors” with respect to any Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, extended pursuant to this Section 2.28 may be different than the interest margins and/or “floors”
for the existing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, and upfront fees may be paid to the Extending Term Lenders, in each case to the extent provided in the Borrower’s notice. Any Term Loan extended pursuant to this
Section 2.28 may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective
extension offer. As a condition precedent to such extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date or the Incremental Term Loan Extension Effective
Date, as applicable, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such extension and certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension,
the representations and warranties contained in Article 3 made by it are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date or the Incremental Term Loan Extension Effective Date, as applicable, except to
the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, and no Default or Event of Default exists or will exist as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date or the Incremental Term Loan Extension Effective Date, as
applicable. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Non-Extending Term Lender the then unpaid principal amount of such Non-Extending Term Lender’s Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as applicable,
outstanding on the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date or the Existing Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, as applicable (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.16). 

(c) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 9.08, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (without the consent of
any other Lenders except to the extent required under subsection (b) above) to enter into any amendments to this Agreement that the Administrative Agent believes are necessary to appropriately reflect, or provide for the integration of, any
extension of a Term Loan Maturity Date or maturity date applicable to any Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.28. 

  
 76 









 Section 2.29. Refinancing Amendments. At any time after the Closing Date, the
Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments in respect of all or any portion of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding under
this Agreement (which will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu in right of payment and of
security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) will have such pricing, fees (including upfront fees and OID) and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, (iii) will have a maturity
date that is not prior to the maturity date of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term Loans being
refinanced and (iv) except as otherwise permitted herein, will have terms and conditions taken as a whole that are substantially identical to, or no more favorable to the Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than,
the Refinanced Debt; provided further that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed
between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred or obtained. The effectiveness of any Refinancing
Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(b) and (c) (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in
Section 4.01(b) and (c) shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Refinancing Amendment) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board
resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change
to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.29 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less
than $10,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon
the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto
(including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

or would occur as a consequence thereof. 
 (c) As of the Closing Date, all of the subsidiaries of the Borrower will be

permitted at such time, whether pursuant to Section 6.03(a) or the definition of “Permitted Investments,” and if such subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be
subject to any of the mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, covenants or events of default set forth in the Loan Documents.

Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower) or the Person to whom such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is organized or existing under the laws of
the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia, (such Person, the “Successor Company”); 
 (ii) the Successor Company, if other than the Borrower, expressly assumes all the Obligations of the Borrower pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; 

(iii) immediately after such transaction, no Default exists; 

(iv) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related financing transactions on a Pro Forma
Basis, as if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio will not be greater than the Financial Covenant Level; 

  
 110









 (v) each Guarantor, unless it is the other party to the transactions
described above, in which case clause (i) of Section 6.04(c) shall apply, shall have confirmed that its Obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent; and 
 (vi) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate
stating that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such documentation relating to the Loan Documents, if any, comply with this Agreement; 

provided that the Borrower shall (x) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any such transaction and cause the Successor Company, if
other than the Borrower, to expressly assume all the Obligations of the Borrower pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (y) take all other required actions either prior to or upon the later to occur of
30 days following such transaction and the date of the required delivery of the next Pricing Certificate (or such longer period as to which the Administrative Agent may consent) in order to preserve and protect the Liens on the Collateral securing
the Secured Obligations. The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for the Borrower under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may consummate the Transactions (including the Acquisition). 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs (a)(iii) and (a)(iv), 

(i) the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with or merge into or transfer all or part of its properties
and assets to the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor; 
 (ii) the Borrower may merge with an Affiliate of the
Borrower solely for the purpose of reorganizing the Borrower in a State of the United States so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby; and 

(iii) Acquisition Corp. may merge with and into the Company. 

(c) No Subsidiary Guarantor will, and the Borrower will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, consolidate or merge with or into or wind
up into (whether or not the Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions,
to any Person unless: 
 (i) (A) such Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving corporation or the Person formed by
or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition will have been made is organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any
state thereof, the District of Columbia, or any territory thereof (such Guarantor or Person, the “Successor Person”); 

  
 111









 (B) the Successor Person, if other than such Subsidiary Guarantor, expressly
assumes all the Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; 
 (C) immediately after such transaction, no Default exists; and 

(D) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate, stating that such
consolidation, merger or transfer and such documentation relating to the Loan Documents, if any, comply with this Agreement; or 
 (ii) the transaction does not violate Section 6.05; 
 provided that the Borrower shall
promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any such transaction and shall take all required actions either prior to or upon the later to occur of 30 days following such transaction and the date of the required delivery of the next Pricing
Certificate (or such longer period as to which the Administrative Agent may consent) in order to preserve and protect the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations. In the case of clause (i)(A) above, the Successor Person will
succeed to, and be substituted for, such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Subsidiary Guarantor may (x) merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Subsidiary
Guarantor or the Borrower, or, to the extent constituting a Permitted Investment or a Restricted Investment permitted by Section 6.03, another Restricted Subsidiary or (y) dissolve, liquidate or wind up its affairs if such dissolution,
liquidation or winding up could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 6.05. Asset
Sales. Cause, make or suffer to exist an Asset Sale, unless: 
 (a) the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case
may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of; 

(b) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form
of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of: 
 (i) any liabilities (as shown on the
Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet or in the footnotes thereto) of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Obligations or that are
owed to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary, that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets and for which the Borrower and all of its Restricted Subsidiaries have been validly released by all creditors in writing, 

  
 112

having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (iii) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed 2.0% of Total Assets at the time of the receipt of
such Designated Non-Cash Consideration, with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value, 

shall be deemed to be cash for purposes of this provision and for no other purpose; and 

(c) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would exist after giving pro forma effect to such Asset Sale. 

To the extent any Collateral is disposed of as expressly permitted by this Section 6.05 or pursuant to any disposition that does not
constitute an Asset Sale but is otherwise permitted under this Agreement, in each case, to any Person other than a Loan Party, such Collateral shall be sold free and clear of the Liens created by the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent or
the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be authorized to take any actions deemed appropriate in order to effect the foregoing. 
 Section 6.06. Transactions with Affiliates.  
 (a) Except for
transactions by or among Loan Parties (or by and among the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries), sell or transfer any property or assets to, or purchase or acquire any property or assets from, or otherwise engage in any other transactions with,
any of its Affiliates, in each case, involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $1,000,000 unless such transaction is on terms that are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those
that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person on an arm’s-length basis. 
 (b) The foregoing provisions will not apply to the following: 
 (i)
the Transactions and the payment of the Transaction Expenses;

Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (vii) transactions pursuant to permitted agreements in existence on
the Closing Date and any amendment thereto to the extent such an amendment is not adverse to the interests of the Lenders in any material respect;

and (B) any Investment by a Loan Party in a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party shall be made in compliance with Section 6.01(f) and Section 6.03, as applicable;

the terms of, any stockholders agreement, principal investors agreement (including any registration rights agreement or purchase agreement related thereto) to which it is a party as of the

Closing Date and any similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of obligations under any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Closing Date shall only be permitted by this clause (xi) to the extent that the terms of any such
amendment or new agreement are not otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Lenders when taken as a whole; 

(xii) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the
ordinary course of business which are fair to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the board of directors of the Borrower or the senior management thereof, or are on terms at least as favorable as might
reasonably have been obtained at such time from an unaffiliated party;

ARTICLE 8 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT,
THE ARRANGERS AND THE AGENTS 
 Section 8.01.
Appointment And Authority.  
 (a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as
the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article (other than Section 8.06) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other
Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also
act as the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens
on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as Collateral Agent and any co-agents,
sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any
rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 8 and Article 9 (including Section 9.05(c), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

Section 8.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity
for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

  
 120









 Section 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that
the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable
for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

(d) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.08 and Article 7) or
(ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the
Borrower or a Lender. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into
(i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection
herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of
any Collateral, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, nor shall the Administrative Agent (nor
any Arranger) have any responsibility or liability for monitoring or enforcing any of the provisions set forth herein with respect to Disqualified Institutions. 

  
 121









 Section 8.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or
other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have
been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the
Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult
with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or
experts. 
 Section 8.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall
apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

Section 8.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice
of its resignation to the Lenders (the date of such notice referred to herein as the “Resignation Notice Date”) and the Borrower, which such notice shall be given at least 30 days prior to the effectiveness thereof. Upon receipt of
any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (but shall not be required if an Event of Default under paragraph (b), (g) or
(h) of Article 7 has occurred and is continuing)), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank or agency of a bank, in each case, having a combined capital and surplus of
at least $1,000,000,000 with an office in the United States. The resignation of the Administrative Agent shall be effective no later than the 30th day after the Resignation Notice Date, without regard to whether any successor has been appointed and/or has accepted
such appointment and further without regard to any consent rights of the Borrower, the Lenders or any other Person. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
after the Resignation Notice Date, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and with the consent of the Borrower to the extent required above, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth
above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective on the 30th day after the Resignation Notice Date and (a) the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents both in its capacity as 

  
 122









 
Administrative Agent and as Collateral Agent, (b) all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender
directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section and (c) any determinations provided to be made by the retiring Administrative Agent shall instead be made by the
Required Lenders until such time as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for herein; and provided further that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent on
behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, (x) continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed or
(y) appoint a successor collateral agent solely for purposes of holding such collateral security and completing any filings or undertakings with respect to such collateral security. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the
same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and
Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring
Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 8.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other
Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made
its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Section 8.08. No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Arrangers, Syndication Agents and Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder. 
 Section 8.09. Administrative Agent May
File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivorship, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent
(irrespective of whether the Obligations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise 

  
 123









 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05 and 9.05)
allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on
any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar
official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.05 and 9.05.

 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt
on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or in any such
proceeding. 
 Section 8.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent to comply with the provisions set forth in Section 9.17.

 (c) if to a Lender, to it at its address (or
fax number) set forth on Schedule 2.01 or in the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Lender shall have become a party hereto. 
 All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of


  
 125









 
receipt if delivered by hand or overnight courier service or sent by fax or electronic mail or on the date three (3) Business Days after dispatch by certified or registered mail if mailed,
in each case, delivered, sent or mailed (properly addressed) to such party as provided in this Section 9.01 or in accordance with the latest unrevoked direction from such party given in accordance with this Section 9.01; provided
that if any fax or electronic mail is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. 

The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Arrangers will make available to the Lenders materials
and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and
(b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including any such information about the
Borrower and its subsidiaries provided in the form of information with respect to the Borrower’s other Affiliates), or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities
with respect to such Persons’ securities. The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such
Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials
“PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and
proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in
Section 9.16); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Arranger
shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower
shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.” 
 THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS”
AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER
MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY
AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to Holdings, the Borrower, any
Lender or any other 

  
 126









 
Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission
of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful misconduct of such Agent Party. 

Section 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein or
any other Loan Document, shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Agents and the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, regardless of any investigation made by the Agents, the Lenders or on their behalf, and
notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or actual knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Event shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20
and 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments,
the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender. 

Section 9.03. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. 

Section 9.04. Successors And Assigns.  
 (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and
agreements by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. 

(b) Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i) each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment
other than assignments to a Lender or an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender (each, a “Lender Affiliate Assignee”) (which consent of the Borrower (x) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (y) shall not be
required during the continuance of any Event of Default arising under clause (b), (c), (g) or (h) of Article 7), provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by
written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof, (ii) (A) in the case of any assignment, other than assignments to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate Assignee, the amount of the
Term Loan Commitment or Term Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall
not be less than $1,000,000 (or if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Term Loan 

  
 127









 
Commitment or Term Loans) and shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment or Term Loans, as
applicable of the applicable Class), provided, however, that simultaneous assignments to two or more Related Funds shall be combined for purposes of determining whether the minimum assignment requirement is met, and (B) in the
case of any assignment to any Lender Affiliate Assignee, after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans, as applicable, of the assigning Lender and its Affiliates and Related Funds shall be zero or not less
than $1,000,000 and the aggregate Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans, as applicable, of the assignee Lenders and their Affiliates and Related Funds shall be not less than $1,000,000, (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance (such Assignment and Acceptance to be (A) electronically executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent via an electronic settlement system then acceptable to the
Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and (B) delivered together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, unless waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion;
provided that only one such fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments by or to two or more Related Funds) and (iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender immediately prior to the assignment, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and the tax forms required under Section 2.20(f) or (g), as applicable. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective
date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment, as well as to any Fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). Any assignment or transfer that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for
purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section 9.04. 
 (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties
hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Term Loan Commitment and the outstanding balances of its
Term Loans without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, 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 this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or the performance or 

  
 128









 
observance by the Borrower or any of its subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto,
(iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent
financial statements referred to in Section 3.05(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.04, the Intercreditor Agreement 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, (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral 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 this Agreement, (vi) such assignee agrees to be bound by the Intercreditor Agreement, (vii) such assignee appoints and
authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the
terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, (viii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed
by it as a Lender and (ix) such assignee confirms that such assignee shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.16 or 2.20 than such assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of the date of such
assignment with respect to the interest being assigned, except to the extent that the entitlement to any greater payment results from any Change in Law after the date of such assignment. 

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of
each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and any changes thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans (and
related interest amount and fees with respect to such Loan) owing and paid to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice
to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (e) Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee
(unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to such assignment (in each
case to the extent required pursuant to paragraph (b) above) and any applicable tax forms required by Section 2.20(f) or (g), as applicable, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and
(ii) promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (f). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any
assignment by a Lender to a 

  
 129









 
Disqualified Institution (other than any such assignment made in good faith to a Specified Institution after an inquiry made in accordance with clause (m) below and a response by the
Borrower that the relevant named Person (as defined therein) is not a Specified Institution or a failure of the Borrower to respond in accordance with such clause (m)) shall be deemed null and void ab initio and the Register shall be modified
to reflect a reversal of such assignment, and the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment) against the Lender and such Disqualified
Institution, but in no case shall the Borrower be entitled to pursue any remedy against the Administrative Agent (except in its capacity as a Lender) or any Arranger. 
 (f) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than to Disqualified Institutions) in all or a portion
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other Persons shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions
contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections, including the requirements of Sections 2.20(f) and (g), to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any
particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant, except to the extent that the entitlement to any greater payment results from any Change in Law after the date of such participation
(iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, so long as such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18 as though it were a
Lender and (v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain
the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers described in clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) of Section 9.08(b) as it pertains to the Loans or Commitments in which such participant has an interest). Each Lender selling a participation to a participant shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower, keep a register, meeting the requirements of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), of each such participation, specifying such participant’s name, address and entitlement to payments of principal and interest with
respect to such participation (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant
or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment,
loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the purposes of the Participant Register,
an SPC shall be treated as a participant. Notwithstanding anything 

  
 130









 
herein to the contrary, any participation by a Lender or participant to a Disqualified Institution (other than any such assignment made in good faith to a Specified Institution after an inquiry
made in accordance with clause (m) below and a response by the Borrower that the relevant named Person (as defined therein) is not a Specified Institution or a failure of the Borrower to respond in accordance with such clause (m)) shall be
deemed null and void ab initio and the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment) against the Lender and such Disqualified
Institution, but in no case shall the Borrower be entitled to pursue any remedy against the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, or any Arranger. 
 (g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or
proposed assignee or participant any non-public information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee
or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such non-public information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the
Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16. 
 (h) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to any Federal Reserve Bank or to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender; provided that no such assignment shall
release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no such assignment by a Lender shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase
or change the obligations of the Borrower hereunder. 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option
to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC
to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an
SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of
such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower hereunder, except to the extent that such increase results from a Change in Law after the date of the grant, (y) no SPC shall be
liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (z) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes remain the Lender of record hereunder (except that
any SPC which makes a Loan as provided hereunder shall be reflected as a Participant on the Participant Register). In addition, notwithstanding 

  
 131









 
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (A) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without
paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency,
commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless it has complied with
Section 2.20(f) or (g), as applicable. 
 (j) The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any of its rights or duties
hereunder (other than in a transaction permitted by Section 6.04) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. 

(k) If the Borrower wishes to replace all Loans with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the
Administrative Agent and subject to at least three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders, instead of prepaying the Loans to be replaced, to (i) require the applicable Lenders to assign such Loans to the Administrative Agent
or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.08 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9.08(d)); provided that any requirement to assign such
Loans shall be deemed to be an optional prepayment of the Loans by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(a). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans to be replaced shall be purchased at par plus any prepayment premium payable pursuant to
Section 2.12(d) (allocated among the applicable Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, any
amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16. By receiving such purchase price, the applicable Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Loans pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance, and accordingly no other action by
such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

 (l) 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (x) any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Person who, after giving effect to such assignment,
would be an Affiliated Lender or a Purchasing Borrower Party (with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) in accordance with Section 9.04(b) and (y) the Borrower, Holdings and any of their
respective Subsidiaries may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Term Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through (A) Dutch auction procedures open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures
to be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction) or (B) open market purchases; provided that: 

(A) other than with respect to Investment Funds, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would
result therefrom; 

  
 132









 (B) the assigning Lender and Affiliated Lender or Purchasing Borrower Party
purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment
Agreement”) in lieu of an Assignment and Acceptance; 
 (C) [Intentionally Omitted]; 

(D) any Term Loans assigned to any Purchasing Borrower Party (or purchased or prepaid by Holdings, the Borrower or any
Subsidiary of the Borrower acting in accordance with this Section 9.04(l)) shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder;

 (E) [Intentionally Omitted]; and 

(F) no Term Loan may be assigned to an Affiliated Lender pursuant to this Section 9.04(l), if after giving effect to
such assignment, (i) Affiliated Lenders together in the aggregate would own in excess of 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding and any assignments to Affiliated Lenders that would cause the Affiliated Lenders
in the aggregate to hold in excess of 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding shall be deemed void ab initio and the Register shall be modified to reflect a reversal of such assignment, (ii) in the case
of any assignment to an Investment Fund (and without limitation of clause (i) above), Investment Funds would own in excess of 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding and any assignments to Investment Funds that
would cause the Investment Funds in the aggregate to hold in excess of 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding shall be deemed void ab initio and the Register shall be modified to reflect a reversal of such
assignment and (iii) in the case of any assignment to a Management Investor (and without limitation of clause (i) above), Management Investors would own in excess of $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then
outstanding and any assignments to Management Investors that would cause the Management Investors in the aggregate to hold in excess of $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding shall be deemed void ab initio
and the Register shall be modified to reflect a reversal of such assignment; and 

  
 133









 (G) with respect to purchases or prepayments by any Purchasing Borrower
Party, the Borrower represents and warrants that it is not in possession of material non-public information within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws with respect to itself or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or the
respective securities of any of the foregoing, at the time of such purchase that has not been disclosed to the Lenders (other than Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries) prior to such time. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited,
(B) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made
available to any Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered to Lenders), or (C) make or bring (or
participate in, other than as a passive participant in or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender, against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or
obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan Documents. 

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.08 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for
purposes of determining whether the “Required Lenders” have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any
Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with
respect to or under any Loan Document, all Term Loans held by any Affiliated Lender that is not an Investment Fund shall be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not
Affiliated Lenders or who are Investment Funds for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions; provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver or consent
(x) described in clause (b)(i) or (ii) of Section 9.08 (which, for the avoidance of doubt, such Affiliated Lender would not be permitted to vote on (1) any change to the component definitions of the Consolidated Secured Debt
Ratio or (2) any amendment, modification, waiver or consent with respect to Section 6.06(b)(xiii)(B)) or (y) that disproportionately, directly and adversely affects such Affiliated Lender. 

(iv) Each Affiliated Lender other than an Investment Fund hereby agrees that if a case under Title 11 of the United States
Code is commenced 

  
 134









 
against any Loan Party, each such Affiliated Lender shall consent to provide that the vote of such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect to any plan of reorganization of
such Loan Party shall be deemed to be without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders or who are Investment Funds, except that such Affiliated Lender’s
vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be counted to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any respect to such Affiliated Lender than the
proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower. Each Affiliated Lender (other than an Investment Fund) hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an
interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any
action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this clause (iv). 
 (v) In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender, Investment Fund or Management Investor nor shall the
Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the number of Affiliated Lenders, Investment Funds or Management Investors or the aggregate amount of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders, Investment Funds or Management
Investors. 
 (vi) Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any case, within
three (3) Business Days following any request for such list by the Administrative Agent) provide to the Administrative Agent a list of all Affiliated Lenders, including Investment Funds and Management Investors, holding Term Loans or
Incremental Term Loans at such time and the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and Incremental Term Loans (as applicable) held by each such Affiliated Lender. 
 (m) The list of Disqualified Institutions referred to in clause (ii) of the definition thereof shall be posted, as in effect from time to time, on the Platform and available for inspection by
Lenders. The Borrower shall maintain the list of all Disqualified Institutions referred to in clause (i) of the definition thereof (each, including any affiliates referred to thereon, a “Specified Institution”) and shall
respond promptly (but in any event before the close of business, New York time, on the third succeeding Business Day or, in the event the Borrower requests additional information pursuant to the following proviso before the close of business, New
York time, on the third succeeding Business Day, within 3 Business Days after the requesting Person provides such information to the Borrower) to any request in writing by a Lender or any prospective Lender by assignment or prospective participant
as to whether such Person (the “named Person”) is a Specified Institution, provided that the requesting Person shall provide the Borrower with any information reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish the ownership or
control of the named Person (and, if the Borrower does not respond in such period either by notifying such Person (i) that the named Person is a 

  
 135









 
Specified Institution or (ii) identifying for such requesting Person the names of all Disqualified Institutions referred to in clause (i) of the definition thereof, such requesting
Person shall be entitled to assume that the named Person is not a Specified Institution). Any assignor of a Loan or Commitment or seller of a participation hereunder shall be entitled to rely conclusively on a representation of the assignee Lender
or purchaser of such participation in the relevant Assignment and Acceptance or participation agreement, as applicable, that such assignee or purchaser is not a Disqualified Institution. None of the Arrangers or Agents shall have any responsibility
or liability for maintaining or monitoring the list or identities of, or enforcing provisions relating to, Disqualified Institutions. 
 Section 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity.  
 (a) The Borrower agrees to pay
(i) if the Closing Date occurs, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (but limited, as to legal fees and expenses, to those of Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, counsel for the Agents and the Arrangers taken as a whole, and, if
reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any material jurisdiction) incurred by the Arrangers and the Agents, in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket expenses (but limited, as to legal fees and expenses, to one counsel for the Agents, and the Lenders and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons and their successors and assigns, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably
necessary, of one local counsel (exclusive of any reasonably necessary special counsel) in any material jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each similarly conflicted
group) incurred by the Agents or any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons and their successors and assigns in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights or remedies in connection with this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made hereunder. 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Arranger, the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons and their successors and assigns (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all costs, expenses (but limited, as to legal fees and expenses, to reasonable and documented fees, out-of-pocket disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel to the Indemnitees taken as a whole, and, if reasonably
necessary, of one local counsel in each material jurisdiction to the Indemnitees taken as a whole and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each similarly conflicted group), and
liabilities of such Indemnitee arising out of or in connection with (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their
respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facilities), (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans, (iii) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any 

  
 136









 
Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or
(iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or any liability under Environmental Laws related in any way to the
Borrower or any of its subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such costs, expenses or liabilities (x) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, fraud or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee (or its Related Parties) or material breach of its (or its Related Parties’) obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (y) relate to the presence or Release of Hazardous Materials that first
occur at any property owned by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries after such property is transferred to any Indemnitee or its successors or assigns by foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer or (z) resulted from any
dispute solely among Indemnitees and not involving the Borrower, the Sponsor or their respective Affiliates. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and to hold the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all
reasonable costs, expenses, and liabilities of the Administrative Agent arising out of or in connection with any reversal of an assignment or participation by a Lender to a Disqualified Institution and any remedy pursued with respect thereto
(whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment), and to reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (but limited as to legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable
and documented fees and expenses of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each material jurisdiction) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing. The Borrower
shall have no obligation to reimburse any Indemnitee for fees and expenses unless such Indemnitee provides the Borrower with an undertaking in which such Indemnitee agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower to such
Indemnitee to the extent any of the foregoing items in clauses (x) through (z) occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Tax matters, other than Taxes that represent damages arising out of a non-tax
claim. 
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to (i) the Arrangers, the
Administrative Agent or any other Indemnitee related thereto under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting its obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Arrangers, such Indemnitee and the
Administrative Agent, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount and (ii) the Collateral Agent or any other Indemnitee related
thereto under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.05, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Collateral Agent or any other Indemnitee related thereto, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as if the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity is sought) of such unpaid amount and; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted
against the Arrangers, the Agents or such Indemnitee in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” (x) in the case of clause (i) above, shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the
outstanding Term Loans and unused Term Loan Commitments at the time, and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, shall be determined based on its share of the sum of the outstanding Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments at the time.


  
 137









 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party
hereto hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall survive the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable within 30 days after receipt of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such amounts in reasonable detail.

 Section 9.06. Right of Setoff; Payments Set Aside.  

(a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time,
except to the extent prohibited by law, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its subsidiaries) to set off and apply any and
all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the
Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such
obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including
other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. 
 (b) To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the
Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set
aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then (i) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (ii) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon
demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time
in effect. 

  
 138









 Section 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER
THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 Section 9.08. Waivers; Amendment.  
 (a) No failure or delay of the
Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure
by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for
which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Subject to Section 2.24, Section 2.28, Section 2.29, clause (d) below, the Intercreditor Agreement and except for those actions expressly permitted to be taken by the Agents,
neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties that are
party thereto and are affected by such waiver, amendment or modification; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) reduce the principal amount of, or extend or waive the final scheduled maturity date or date for the
payment of any principal or interest on, any Loan, forgive any such payment or any part thereof, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that any waiver of default interest shall
only require the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders), (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 9.04(j) (it
being understood that any change to Section 6.04 shall only require approval of the Required Lenders) or the provisions of this Section (except as set forth below) or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors or all or substantially
all of the Collateral (except as permitted under the Intercreditor Agreement, Section 6.04 and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), without the prior written consent of each Lender or (iv) reduce the percentage contained in the
definition of the terms “Required Lenders” or “Required Facility Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any
determination or grant of any consent hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that (w) the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower, amend, modify or supplement this
Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or any Issuer, (x) no such agreement shall


  
 139









 
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, (y) the consent of the applicable Required Facility Lenders shall be required with respect to any amendment that by its terms adversely affects the rights of Lenders under any
Other Term Facility or any facility in respect of a Credit Increase in respect of payments hereunder in a manner different than such amendment affects such other facilities and (z) Section 9.04(i) may not be amended, waived or otherwise
modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and Section 2.26, in addition to any credit extensions and related Incremental Amendments effectuated
without the consent of Lenders in accordance with Section 2.24, this Agreement (including this Section 9.08 and Section 2.17) may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to
share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued interest and Fees in respect thereof, (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination
of the Required Lenders and other definitions related to such new credit facilities and (iii) to provide class protection for any additional credit facilities in a manner consistent with those provided herein for the Classes of Lenders
contemplated by this Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date. 
 (d) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this
Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term
Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche denominated in dollars (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the
aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Percentage for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Percentage for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to
Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has
been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Refinanced Term Loans) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term
Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such
refinancing. 
 (e) Each waiver, amendment, modification, supplement or consent made or given pursuant to this Section 9.08
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given, and such waiver, amendment, modification or supplement shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding on the Loan Parties, the Lenders,
the Agents and all future holders of the Loans and Commitments. 

  
 140









 Section 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the
maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the
operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount shall have been
received by such Lender. 
 Section 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan
Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder and, to the
extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees, the Arrangers, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 9.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO
THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY
HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11. 

Section 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan
Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood
that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any 

  
 141









 
other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as
close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 Section 9.13. Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as

Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), the Loan Documents and the terms and substance thereof, except that the Information and the Loan Documents may be disclosed (a) to its and its
Affiliates’ trustees, officers, directors, employees, members, partners and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors on a “need-to-know” basis (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is

Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person (including any Governmental Authority regulating any Lender or its Affiliates), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar

applicable law), (d) to the extent reasonably necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder or

such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.16. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower and related to the Borrower or
its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, other than by reason of disclosure by Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in breach of
this Section 9.16. 
 Section 9.17. Release of Collateral.  

(a) The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Agents to: 

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent under any
Loan Document (w) upon the Termination Date (and, concurrently therewith, to release all the Loan Parties from their obligations under the Loan Documents (other than those that specifically survive the Termination Date)), (x) that is sold
(or disposed of) or to be sold (or disposed of) as part of or in connection with any sale or disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than a Loan Party, (y) subject to Section 9.01, if approved,
authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, or (z) owned by a Guarantor upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (iii) below; 

  
 143









 (ii) at the request of the Borrower, to subordinate any Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by clauses (f) and (i) of Section 6.02 or, to the extent securing Capitalized Lease Obligations,
purchase money Indebtedness, industrial revenue bonds, industrial development bonds or similar financings, clause (s) of Section 6.02; and 
 (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under any Loan Document to which it is a party if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted
hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Junior Financing and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof unless and until such Guarantor is (or is being simultaneously)
released from its guarantee with respect to such Junior Financing and any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof. 
 (b)
Upon request by any Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under
the Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 9.17. In each case as specified in this Section 9.17, the relevant Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party
may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Loan Documents, or to release such Loan Party from its obligations under the Loan Documents, in
each case, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.17. 
 Section 9.18. USA PATRIOT
Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies each of the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each of the Loan Parties in
accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. 
 Section 9.19. Terms of Intercreditor Agreement; Etc.  

(a) EACH LENDER AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTION THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENTER INTO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ON
BEHALF OF SUCH LENDER, AND TO TAKE ALL ACTIONS (AND EXECUTE ALL DOCUMENTS) REQUIRED (OR DEEMED ADVISABLE) BY IT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. 
 (b) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 9.19 ARE NOT INTENDED TO SUMMARIZE ALL RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR 

  
 144









 
AGREEMENT, THE FORM OF WHICH IS ATTACHED AS AN EXHIBIT TO THIS AGREEMENT. REFERENCE MUST BE MADE TO THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ITSELF TO UNDERSTAND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS THEREOF. EACH LENDER
IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING ITS OWN ANALYSIS AND REVIEW OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS THEREOF, AND NO AGENT (AND NONE OF ITS AFFILIATES) MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION TO ANY LENDER AS TO THE SUFFICIENCY OR ADVISABILITY OF THE
PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. 
 (c) To the extent any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under
any other Security Document, including without limitation any obligation to grant sole possession or control or deliver or assign property or funds to a Collateral Agent or any other Person conflicts or is inconsistent with (or any representation or
warranty hereunder or under any other Security Document would, if required to be true, conflict or be inconsistent with) the obligations or requirements under a substantially similar provision of any First Lien Security Document, such obligations or
requirements under the First Lien Security Documents shall control, and such Loan Party shall not be required to fulfill such obligations (or make such representations and warranties) hereunder or under any Security Document, and shall be deemed not
to be in violation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of its performance of the obligations or requirements of such First Lien Security Document. For the avoidance of doubt, the absence of any specific reference to this
Section 9.19 in any other provision of this Agreement or in any Loan Document shall not be deemed to limit the generality of this Section 9.19. 
 Section 9.20. Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any
other obligor under any of the Loan Documents or any Hedging Obligation (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or
proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent; provided that if at any time there is no
Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.09 and (ii) subject to
Section 2.18, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. The provision of this Section 9.20 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders
and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party. 
 Section 9.21. No Fiduciary
Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their
Affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party,
its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the 

  
 145









 
transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the
one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its
Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any
Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent
or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is
responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a
fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
