amount specified in this Agreement (other than in Section 2.18 or as set forth in clause (b) of this Section 1.07)
or any of the other Loan Documents to be in Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in any currency other than
Dollars, such equivalent amount to be determined at the applicable Exchange Rate; provided that (x) the determination
of any Dollar Amount shall be made in accordance with Section 2.18(m) and (y) if any

(in accordance with the EMU Legislation).  If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual
of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the
London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by
such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency.


 


(b)        Each
provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time
to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant

ARTICLE
II


 


THE CREDITS


 


Section 2.01        Commitments.
Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, (a) each Term Lender
agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Initial Term Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) on the Closing Date
in the principal amount equal to its Term Commitment on the Closing Date and (b) each Revolving
Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis), at any time
and from time to time on or after the Closing Date until the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the termination of the
Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time
outstanding that will not result in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Revolving Lender’s Revolving
Commitment; provided, however, no Revolving Loans shall be permitted to be made on the Closing Date. Amounts paid
or prepaid in respect of Term Loan may not be reborrowed. Within the limits set forth in clause (b) of the second preceding sentence
and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving
Loans.


 


Section 2.02         Loans.   (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably
in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in
itself 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). Except for Revolving
Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.18(e), any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral
multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.


 


(b)          Subject
to Sections 2.11 and 2.12, each Borrowing of Loans shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as
the Administrative 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 Lender to make such Loan or the Borrowers 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, that the Administrative
Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than 10 Eurodollar Borrowings in the
aggregate outstanding hereunder at any one time (or such greater number of Eurodollar Borrowings as may be acceptable to the Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion). For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether
they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.


 




    	 	63	 



     


    

 


(c)          Except
with respect to Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.18(e), 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 from time to time not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly
credit or remit the amounts so received to an account in the United States as directed by the Administrative 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, promptly return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.


 


(d)          Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received written 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 clause
(c) above, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Borrowers 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, each of such Lender and the Borrowers
(on a joint and several basis) 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 Borrowers until the date such amount is
repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation, and (ii)
in the case of the Borrowers, the greater of the interest rate applicable at the time to ABR Loans of the applicable Class and
the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender shall subsequently 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 the
Borrowers’ obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d)
shall cease and any amounts previously so repaid by the Borrowers shall be returned to the Borrowers.


 


(e)          Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any
Eurodollar Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the applicable Maturity Date.


 


Section 2.03        Borrowing
Procedure. (a) To request a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Borrowing,
the Administrative Borrower shall deliver a written request (by hand delivery, email through a “pdf” copy or telecopier,
or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing
by the Administrative Agent)), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of
a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed
Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day prior to the
proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request for a Revolving Loan or a Term Loan shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)           the
aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(a);


 




    	 	64	 



     


    

 


(ii)          the
date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;


 


(iii)         whether
such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;


 


(iv)         in
the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated
by the definition of the term “Interest Period” contained herein;


 


(v)          the
location and number of the respective Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the
requirements of Section 2.02(c);


 


(vi)         that
the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and (c) are satisfied as of the date of the notice; and


 


(vii)       whether
the requested Borrowing is to be a Revolving Borrowing or a Term Borrowing.


 


If no election as to
the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified
with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest
Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03,
the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan
to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.


 


(b)          The
Co-Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Borrower as its agent to request and receive Loans and Letters of Credit
pursuant to this Agreement in the name or on behalf of the Co-Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disburse the
Loans to such bank account of the Administrative Borrower or the Co-Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide
such Letters of Credit to a Borrower as the Administrative Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to the other Borrower
or any Guarantor. The Administrative Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by the Co-Borrower to act as the agent of the Co-Borrower
and agrees to ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to a Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of such Borrower,
or the issuance of any Letter of Credit for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower. The Co-Borrower
hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes the Administrative Borrower as its agent to receive statements on account and all other
notices from the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents. Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking made on behalf of the Co-Borrower
by the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by the Co-Borrower, as the case may be, and shall
be binding upon and enforceable against the Co-Borrower to the same extent as if made directly by the Co-Borrower.


 


(c)          All
Loans or Letters of Credit requested by the Administrative Borrower for ultimate use by the Loan Parties may be drawn or obtained
in the name of the Administrative Borrower or the name of the Co-Borrower. Upon request, the Administrative Borrower shall promptly
confirm for the Administrative Agent that each Loan or Letter of Credit has been issued in the name of the appropriate Borrower
and, in the event of any error, the respective records shall be adjusted without prejudice to the rights of the Agents or the Lenders.

Section 2.04         Repayment

Each of the Borrowers hereby unconditionally promises, jointly and severally, to pay to (i) the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Term Lender, the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Lender as provided in Section 2.09,
(ii) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan
of such Revolving Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date and (iii) the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each
Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the date that is three Business Days after such Swingline Loan
is made; provided, that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans
that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested.


 


(b)          Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers
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 amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class
thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due
and payable from Borrowers to each Lender hereunder, and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder
for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.


 


(d)          The
entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and
amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, 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 Borrowers and the other Loan Parties to
pay, and perform, the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and
records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such entries, the accounts
and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.


 


(e)          Any
Lender by written notice to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) may request that Loans of any
Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender
a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns)
in the form of Exhibit H-1, H-2 or H-3, as the case may be.


 


Section 2.05         Fees.

a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to 1.40% per annum of the average daily unused amount of the Revolving

Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of March, June,
September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof, and (B) on the date on which
such Revolving Commitment terminates. Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Commitment
Fees, the Revolving Commitment of a Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans
and Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure of such Revolving Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Revolving Lender shall be disregarded
for such purpose).


 




    	 	66	 



     


    

 


(b)          Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent Fees. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral

(c)          LC
and Fronting Fees. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Revolving Lender a participation fee (the “LC Participation Fee”) with respect to its participations in Letters
of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time used to determine the interest
rate on Eurodollar Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06 on the average daily amount of the Dollar Amount of such Revolving
Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and
including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates
and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank for its own account,
with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, a fronting fee (“Fronting Fee”), which shall
accrue at the rate of 0.25% per annum (or such other rate per annum as such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Borrower may from
time to time agree) on the average daily amount of the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable
to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination
of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued by
such Issuing Bank, as well as each Issuing Bank’s customary fees and charges with respect to the administration, issuance,
amendment, negotiation, renewal, payment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Accrued LC
Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December
of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate and no Letters of Credit remain outstanding. Any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments
terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall
be payable within five Business Days after demand therefor. All LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the
last day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default under Section 8.01(a)
or (b) or any Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (b), (g) or (h), the LC Participation Fee and
the Fronting Fee shall accrue, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to 2.00% in excess of the rate then
borne by the LC Participation Fee or the Fronting Fee, as the case may be. Each payment of fees hereunder on any Letters of Credit
denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made in Dollars.


 


(d)          Other
Fees. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Agents, each for their own accounts, such fees payable in the
amounts and at the times as have been or may be separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the applicable Agent.


 


(e)          Payment
of Fees. All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent for
distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Borrowers shall pay (i) the Fronting Fees directly to the
applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) the Fees provided under Section 2.05(d) directly to the applicable Agents. Once paid, none
of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.


 


(f)          Any
fees otherwise payable by the Borrowers to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be subject to Section
2.16(c).

at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to ABR Loans from time to time
(in each such case, the “Default Rate”).


 


(d)          Accrued
interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided, that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to Section 2.06(c) (and all interest on past due interest) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event
of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan), accrued interest
on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of
any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall
be payable on the effective date of such conversion.


 


(e)          All
interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Base
Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the
actual numbers of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day); provided, that any Loan that is repaid
on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.13, bear interest for one day. The applicable Alternate
Base Rate or Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with
the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.


 


Section 2.07         Termination
and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.21, the
Term Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Closing Date immediately upon the making
of the Initial Term Loans on such date. The Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment shall automatically
terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.


 


(b)          At
their option, the Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided,
that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not
less than $500,000 and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall not be terminated or reduced if, after
giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the
Total Revolving Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments.


 




    	 	68	 



     


    

 


(c)          Upon
the incurrence of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders under the
Class of Revolving Loans being refinanced shall be automatically and permanently reduced on a ratable basis by an amount equal
to 100% of the Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments so incurred.


 


(d)          The
Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce Commitments of
any Class under Section 2.07(b) at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction
(which effective date shall be a Business Day), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt
of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered
by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable; provided, that a notice of termination
of all then remaining Commitments delivered by the Administrative Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness
of other credit facilities in order to refinance in full the Obligation hereunder, in which case such notice may be revoked by
the Administrative Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition
is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments
of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments for such Class.


 


Section 2.08         Interest
Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of
the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest
Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type
or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided
in this Section 2.08. The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing,
in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and
the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
the Borrowers shall not be entitled to request any conversion or continuation that, if made, would result in more than eight Interest
Periods with respect to Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time (or such greater number of Eurodollar Borrowings
as may be acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline
Borrowings, which may not be converted into a Eurodollar Borrowing and shall, at all times, be maintained as an ABR Borrowing.


 


(b)          To
make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery, email through
“pdf” copy or telecopies, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for
doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to
the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Administrative
Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.
Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable.


 


(c)          Each
Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:


 


(i)           the
Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different
portions thereof, or if outstanding Borrowings are being combined, allocation to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information
to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);


 




    	 	69	 



     


    

 


(ii)          the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;


 


(iii)         whether
the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and


 


(iv)        if
the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” contained herein.


 


If any such Interest
Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Administrative Borrower shall
be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.


 


(d)        Promptly
following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and
of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.


 


(e)        If
an Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require, by notice to the Administrative Borrower, that (i)
no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.


 


Section 2.09         Amortization
of Term Borrowings. (a) The Borrowers, jointly and severally,
shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term Lenders, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December
31 (commencing on September 30, 2017) or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day (each
such date, a “Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Initial Term Loans equal to the Applicable
Amortization Percentage of the initial aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant
to Section 2.10), together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding
the date of such payment.


 


(b)          To
the extent not previously irrevocably paid in full in cash, all Term Loans of a Class shall be due and payable on the Term Loan
Maturity Date for such Class of Term Loans.


 


Section 2.10         Optional
and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans. (a) Optional Prepayments. Subject to
the provisions of Section 2.10(h), the Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing,
in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 2.10(g)) subject to the requirements of
this Section 2.10; provided, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of
$100,000 and not less than $500,000.


 




    	 	70	 



     


    

 


(b)          Mandatory
Prepayments.


 


(i)           In
the event of the termination of all the Revolving Commitments, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, on the date of such
termination, repay or prepay all outstanding Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and either (A) replace all outstanding Letters
of Credit or (B) Cash Collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
2.18(i).


 


(ii)          In
the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments by the Borrowers, then (x) at or prior to the effective date of
such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the Total Revolving
Exposure after giving effect thereto and (y) if the Total Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments
after giving effect to such reduction, then the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall, on the date of such reduction, first,
repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans and third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash
Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) in an aggregate
amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.


 


(iii)         If
at any time the Total Revolving Exposure exceeds the Revolving Commitments at such time, the Borrowers, jointly and severally,
shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans, and
third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures
set forth in Section 2.18(i) in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.


 


(iv)         In
the event that the aggregate Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure exceeds the LC Commitment then in effect, the Borrowers, jointly
and severally, shall, without notice or demand, immediately replace outstanding Letters of Credit or Cash Collateralize outstanding
Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i) in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate
such excess.


 


(v)          No
later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each Excess Cash Flow Period and (ii) the date on which the financial statements
with respect to such fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow Period occurs are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a),
the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) make prepayments in accordance with Section
2.10(d) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended; provided
that the aggregate principal amount of optional prepayments of Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.10(a) (and including
any Term Loans prepaid pursuant to a Discounted Prepayment Offer, but in the case of a Discounted Prepayment Offer, limited to
the amount of cash actually expended to purchase principal of such Term Loans) and the aggregate principal amount of optional prepayments
of Revolving Loans (but only to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction in the Total Revolving Commitments), in each case
made during such Excess Cash Flow Period with Internally Generated Funds shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount of
such mandatory prepayment otherwise required pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(v) in respect of such Excess Cash Flow Period.


 




    	 	71	 



     


    

 


(vi)         Not
later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Casualty Event by any Restricted
Party (other than Net Cash Proceeds of less than $5,000,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Administrative Borrower),
the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) apply 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to make prepayments
in accordance with Section 2.10(d); provided that: (x) so long as no Default shall then exist or would arise therefrom,
such Net Cash Proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that the Administrative Borrower shall
have delivered an Officer’s Certificate to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Net Cash Proceeds
are reasonably expected to be reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) in fixed or capital assets of any Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantor (or, with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Venture, in a
vessel (or vessels) that will become a Collateral Vessel (or Collateral Vessels)) within 12 months following the date of such Asset
Sale or Casualty Event, as applicable (which Officer’s Certificate shall set forth the estimates of the Net Cash Proceeds
to be so expended); provided that, if the property subject to such Asset Sale or Casualty Event constituted Collateral or
Equity Interests in a Specified Joint Venture, then all property purchased or otherwise acquired with the Net Cash Proceeds thereof
pursuant to this subsection shall be made subject to the First Priority perfected Lien (subject to Permitted Liens or, in the case
of any Vessels, Permitted Collateral Vessel Liens) of the applicable Security Documents in favor of the Collateral Agent, for its
benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured Parties in accordance with Section 5.10 and the preceding proviso in the
case of the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Ventures; and (y) if all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds
is not so reinvested within such 12-month period (or if committed to be reinvested pursuant to a legally binding commitment within
such 12-month period and not so reinvested within six months thereafter), such unused portion shall be applied on the last day
of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.10(b)(vi); and provided, further, that
(x) so long as no Default then exists or would result therefrom and (y) if the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sales and/or Casualty
Events exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be deposited in a Deposit Account (a “Reinvestment
Proceeds Account”) of the Administrative Borrower with the Administrative Agent (or another Deposit Account Bank reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) pursuant to a cash collateral arrangement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent (and subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement) whereby such Net Cash Proceeds shall be disbursed
to the Administrative Borrower from time to time as needed to pay actual costs incurred by it or the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor
in connection with the replacement or restoration of the respective properties or assets (or, with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds
from the sale of any Equity Interests in any Specified Joint Venture, in connection with the reinvestment in or purchase of a Collateral
Vessel (or Collateral Vessels)) (pursuant to such certification requirements as may be reasonably established by the Administrative
Agent) (it being understood and agreed that at any time while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required
Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent (in which case the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized by the Administrative
Borrower to, follow said directions) to apply any or all proceeds then on deposit in such Reinvestment Proceeds Account to the
repayment of the Secured Obligations).


 


(vii)        Not
later than one Business Day following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Debt Issuance by any Restricted Party, the Borrowers,
jointly and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(d) in
an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.


 


(viii)       Upon
the incurrence or issuance by any Borrower of any Refinancing Notes or any Specified Refinancing Term Loans, the Borrowers, jointly
and severally, shall (subject to Section 2.10(h)) prepay an aggregate principal amount of the applicable Class or Classes
of Term Loans that are to be refinanced with the proceeds of such Refinancing Notes or Specified Refinancing Term Loans in accordance
with Section 2.10(d) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom.


 


(c)          [Reserved].


 




    	 	72	 



     


    

 


(d)          Application
of Prepayments. Prior to any optional prepayment hereunder, the Administrative Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings
to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(e), subject to
the provisions of this Section 2.10(d). Any prepayments pursuant to Sections 2.10(b)(v)-(vii) shall be applied (i)
first, to prepay principal of outstanding Term Loans and, to the extent so applied, to reduce future scheduled amortization
payments required under Section 2.09 (including the payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) on a pro rata
basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date, and (ii) second,
to the extent there are prepayment amounts remaining after the application of such prepayments under preceding clause (i), such
excess amounts shall be applied to the prepayment of principal of outstanding Revolving Loans (but without any corresponding reduction
in Revolving Commitments (unless an Event of Default then exists, in which case the Revolving Commitments shall be so reduced and
the Borrowers shall comply with Sections 2.10(b)(i)-(iv)); provided, however, to the extent that a prepayment
is required pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(vi) with Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of a Vessel within six months after the
Borrowers incurred Revolving Loans to pay all or a portion of the consideration attributable to the purchase of a Collateral Vessel,
such Net Cash Proceeds may be applied (x) first, to the prepayment of principal of outstanding Revolving Loans up to the
amount so incurred to purchase such Collateral Vessel (without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments unless an Event
of Default then exists, as provided in preceding clause (ii)) and (y) thereafter, to prepay the principal of outstanding
Loans in accordance with clauses (i) and (ii) above. Any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(viii)
shall be applied to reduce future scheduled amortization payments required under Section 2.09 (including the payment due
on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) on a pro rata basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment
Date. Optional prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to reduce future scheduled amortization
payments under Section 2.09 (including the payment due on the applicable Term Loan Maturity Date) in the manner directed
by the Administrative Borrower in the respective notice of prepayment or, in the absence of such direction, in direct order of
maturity. Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the prepayment of Loans of any Class shall be applied first
to reduce outstanding ABR Loans of such Class. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar
Loans of such Class.


 


(e)          Notice
of Prepayment. The Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline
Loan, the Swingline Lender) by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing,
not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day before the date of prepayment (ii) in the case of prepayment
of an ABR Borrowing (other than a Swingline Borrowing), not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the
date of prepayment, and (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Borrowing, not later than
1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable; provided, that
a notice of prepayment of all outstanding Loans may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit
facilities in order to refinance in full all Obligations hereunder, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Administrative
Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
Each such notice shall specify the Class of Loans being prepaid, the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or
portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such
prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative
Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Such notice to the Lenders may be by electronic communication.
Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type
as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment
of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section
2.10. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.06.


 




    	 	73	 



     


    

 


(f)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10, (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans (other than
any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(vii) or (viii)), any Term Lender may waive, by written notice
to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise
be required to be made hereunder, the right to receive its pro rata share of the amount of such mandatory prepayment of its Term
Loans, and (ii) if any Term Lender or Term Lenders elect to waive the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment,
all of the amount that otherwise would have been applied to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans of such Term Lender or Term Lenders
may be retained by the Borrowers.


 


(g)         Any
(x) prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution, conversion or replacement of any Initial Term Loans (other than pursuant
to Section 2.09(a), 2.10(b)(v), 2.10(b)(vi) (but in the case of such Section 2.10(b)(vi), only in respect
of a Casualty Event) or 2.22), in whole or in part, (y) acceleration in accordance with the Loan Documents of the then outstanding
principal amount of Initial Term Loans, and (z) amendment to this Agreement that, directly or indirectly, reduces the Effective
Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans, in each case, occurring on or prior to June 22, 2019, shall be accompanied by the payment
by the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) of (i) in the case of preceding clause (x) or (y), a prepayment premium equal to
(A) 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted, replaced, converted
or accelerated on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the
Initial Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted, replaced, converted or accelerated after the first anniversary
of the Closing Date, but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, and (ii) in the case of preceding clause (z),
a fee equal to (A) 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Initial Term Loans so amended on or prior to the first
anniversary of the Closing Date and (B) 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Initial Term Loans so amended
after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, but on or prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date. Any determination
by the Administrative Agent as contemplated by clause (z) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be conclusive and binding
on the Borrowers and all Lenders, absent manifest error.


 


(h)          Restrictions
on Term Loan Prepayments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document,
(x) if any Revolving Lender has any Revolving Exposure or any other outstanding Revolving Obligations and any Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, no optional prepayment of Term Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.10
and (y) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any mandatory repayment of Terms Loans is otherwise
required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.10, then (i) (x) Swingline Loans, and if no Swingline Loans are or remain
outstanding, Revolving Loans, and if no Swingline Loans or Revolving Loans are or remain outstanding, LC Exposure, shall first
be repaid in full in cash or, in the case of Letters of Credit, Cash Collateralized, as applicable, in the amount otherwise required
to be applied to the repayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10 in the absence of this clause (h) and (y)
if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Revolving Commitments also shall be permanently reduced by the amount
of any required payment pursuant to preceding clause (x) (determined as if Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans were outstanding
in such amount) and (ii) after application pursuant to preceding clause (i), any excess portion of such mandatory repayment of
Term Loans not so applied shall be applied to the repayment of Term Loans as otherwise required by this Section 2.10
in the absence of this clause (h).  If any Lender collects or receives any amounts received on account of the Obligations
to which it is not entitled as a result of the application of this Section 2.10(h), such Lender shall hold the same in trust
for the Revolving Lenders and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, for the
account of the applicable Revolving Lenders, to be applied in accordance with this Section 2.10(h).  Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, this Section 2.10(h) is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a
“subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and
shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable non-bankruptcy law.


 




    	 	74	 



     


    

 


Section 2.11        Alternate
Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar
Borrowing:


 


(a)          the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable
means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or


 


(b)        the
Administrative Agent is advised in writing by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such
Interest Period;


 


then the Administrative Agent shall give
written notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative
Agent notifies the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i)
any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar
Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made
as an ABR Borrowing.


 


Section
2.12         Increased Costs; Change in Legality.
(a) If any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)           impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, liquidity or similar requirement against
property of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve
requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Bank;


 


(ii)          impose
on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than with respect
to Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or


 


(iii)         subject
any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section
2.15, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (f) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on
its Loans, principal, letters of credit, Commitments or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital
attributable thereto;


 


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 of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing
Bank’s holding company, if any, of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation
to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or
such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will, jointly and severally, pay
to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; it being understood that this Section
2.12 shall not apply to Taxes that are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.15.


 




    	 	75	 



     


    

 


(b)          If
any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines (in good faith, but in its sole absolute discretion) that any Change in Law regarding
Capital Requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s
capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, or participations in
Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s
or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in
Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies
and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will, jointly and severally, pay to such Lender or such
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, for any such reduction suffered.


 


(c)          A
certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount
or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company,
as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.12 shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. The Borrowers, jointly and
severally, shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown
as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)          Failure
or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute
a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation;
provided that (i) the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an
Issuing Bank for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs
or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim
compensation therefor, (ii) if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day
period referred to above shall be extended to indicate the period of retroactive effect thereof and (iii) such increased costs
or reductions shall only be payable by the Borrowers to the applicable Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank under this Section
2.12 to the extent that such Lender or such Issuing Bank is generally imposing such charges on similarly situated borrowers.


 


(e)          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 Administrative Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:


 


(i)          such
Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness (as determined in good faith
by such Lender)) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter
(for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans), whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Loan (or to convert an ABR Loan
to a Eurodollar Loan or to continue a Eurodollar Loan for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed
a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar
Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn by such Lender by written notice
to the Administrative Borrower and to the Administrative Agent; and


 




    	 	76	 



     


    

 


(ii)          such
Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar
Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.12(f).


 


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 ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar
Loans.


 


(f)           For
purposes of clause (e) of this Section 2.12, a notice to the Administrative 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 Administrative Borrower.


 


Section 2.13        Breakage
Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory,
of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result
of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered
pursuant hereto (whether or not such notice is permitted to be withdrawn by the Borrowers), or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar
Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Administrative Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall compensate each Lender for
the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (including any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation
or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Loans but excluding loss of anticipated
profits). Each Lender shall calculate any amount or amounts in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner. A certificate
of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section 2.13 shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive
and binding absent manifest error. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any
such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.13 shall
not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.15 shall govern.


 


Section 2.14         Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment
required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or Reimbursement Obligations
or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required
hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New
York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts
received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the
next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative
Agent at its offices at 520 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, 10022; Attn: Account Manager – International Seaways Operating
Corporation, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 11.03 shall be made directly
to the persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the persons specified therein.
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. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business
Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case
of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each
Loan Document shall be made in Dollars; provided that, LC Disbursements paid by the
Borrowers in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made in such Alternative Currency.


 




    	 	77	 



     


    

 


(b)          Subject
to Section 9.01, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay in full
all amounts of principal, premium, Reimbursement Obligations, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied
(i) first, towards payment of interest, premium and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance
with the amounts of interest, premium and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and Reimbursement
Obligations then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Reimbursement
Obligations then due to such parties.


 


(c)          Other
than in connection with a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.22 or as provided in Section 2.10(b)(viii),
if any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim (including pursuant to Section 11.08) or otherwise
(including by exercise of its rights under the Security Documents), obtain payment in respect of any principal of or premium or
interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans, or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such
Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations
in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender entitled
thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving
Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the
benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and
accrued interest and premium on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline
Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto
is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest,
and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrowers
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender (x) as consideration
for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements
or Swingline Loans to any Eligible Assignee or participant, other than to any Company or
any Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall apply)
or (y) in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.21(e). Each Loan Party
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirements, that any Lender
acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim
with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
If under applicable Insolvency Law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this
Section 2.14(c) applies, such Secured Party shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured
claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Secured Party is entitled under this Section 2.14(c) to share
in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.


 


(d)          Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment
is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make
such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.
In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Bank, as the case
may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such
Issuing Bank 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 or practices on interbank compensation.


 




    	 	78	 



     


    

 


(e)          If
any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.14(d), 2.17(d),
2.18(d), 2.18(e) or 11.03(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy
such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.


 


Section 2.15        Taxes.
(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and free and clear of and without deduction, reduction or withholding for
any and all Taxes except as required by applicable Legal Requirements. If any amounts on account of Indemnified Taxes are required
to be deducted or withheld from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by or on behalf of such Loan Party shall be increased
as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions, reductions or withholdings applicable to additional
sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives
an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions, reductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrowers
shall make such deductions, reductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall timely pay to the
relevant Governmental Authority the full amount deducted or withheld in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.


 


(b)          In
addition, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable Legal Requirements, or at the option of the Administrative Agent reimburse it for payment of any Other Taxes.


 


(c)          The
Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank within 10 Business
Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and
any penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, 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 Administrative Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (in each case with a copy delivered
concurrently to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing
Bank shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(d)          Each
Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes
attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for
such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s
failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.04(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii)
any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection
with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly
or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise
payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under
this clause (d).


 




    	 	79	 



     


    

 


(e)          As
soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, and in any event within 30 days following any such payment
being due by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the
original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the Tax Return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrowers
fail to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fail to remit to the Administrative
Agent the required receipts or other documentary evidence, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank for any incremental Taxes or expenses that may become payable by the Administrative Agent
or such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as a result of any such failure.


 


(f)          Any
Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Loan
Document shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent such properly completed and executed documentation
and information reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to
be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign
Lender shall, to the extent it is legally able to do so, (i) furnish to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent
on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto, either (a) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form) (claiming the benefits of an applicable tax treaty), (b) two
accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI (or successor form), together with required
attachments, (c) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY (or successor form),
(d) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8EXP (or successor form) or (e) if such
Foreign Lender is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption,” an accurate and complete originally executed
“Portfolio Interest Certificate” in the form of Exhibit K and two accurate and complete originally executed
U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), in the case of each of the preceding
clauses (a) through (e), together with any required schedules or attachments, certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s
legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to all payments hereunder, (ii) promptly
notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent if such Foreign Lender no longer qualifies for the exemption or
reduction that it previously claimed as a result of change in such Foreign Lender’s circumstances, and (iii) to the extent
it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or
successor form), Form W-8IMY (or successor form), Form W-8EXP (or successor form) and/or Portfolio Interest Certificate upon the
expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form, or at any other time upon the reasonable request of the Administrative
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal
withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder. Each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish to the Administrative
Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date it becomes a party hereto two accurate and complete originally executed
U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form) or otherwise establish an exemption from U.S. backup withholding and
(ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, provide a new Form W-9 (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence
of any previously delivered form, or at any other time upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative
Agent, to reconfirm its complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payment hereunder.


 




    	 	80	 



     


    

 


(g)          If
a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document may be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed under FATCA if such Lender
were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b)
of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time
or times prescribed by law and at such times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
(A) such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the
Code), and (B) such other documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent as may
be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such
Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA, or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such
payment, or notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower that such Lender is not in compliance with FATCA. Solely
for purposes of this Section 2.15(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date
of this Agreement.


 


(h)          If
the Administrative Agent or a Lender (or an assignee) 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 the Borrowers or with respect to which the Borrowers have paid additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrowers (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrowers under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes
or the Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or
assignee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);
provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay all or a portion
of such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority, the Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender
(or assignee), shall repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers that is required to be repaid (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) within three
Business Days after receipt of written notice that the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay such
refund (or a portion thereof) to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.15(h) shall require the
Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential
or privileged to the Borrowers or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative
Agent or any Lender (or assignee) be required to pay any amount to the Borrowers the payment of which would place the Administrative
Agent or such Lender (or assignee) in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or
assignee) would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
had never been paid.


 


Section 2.16         Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)          Mitigation
of Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b), or if the Borrowers are required
to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15,
then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder
or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment
of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce materially amounts payable pursuant to Section
2.12(a), 2.12(b) or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed
cost or expense, (iii) would not require such Lender to take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory
restrictions, and (iv) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay all
reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting
forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 




    	 	81	 



     


    

 


(b)          Replacement
of Lenders. In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section
2.12(a) or (b), (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.12(e), (iii) the
Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account
of any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver
or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrowers that requires the consent of 100% of the Lenders or 100%
of all affected Lenders and which, in each case, has been consented to by the Required Lenders or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred
to in Section 11.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender
or such Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to restrictions contained in Section
11.04; provided that the failure of such assigning Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not affect the
validity and effect of such assignment), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee
which shall assume such assigned obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided, that (w) except in the case of clause (iv) above if the effect of such amendment, waiver or other modification
of the applicable Loan Document would cure any Default then ongoing, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (x) such
assignment shall not conflict with any applicable Legal Requirement, (y) the Administrative Borrower shall have received the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline
Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid to
the affected Lender or the affected Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of
and interest and any prepayment premium or penalty (if any) accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans or LC
Disbursements of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, respectively, affected by such assignment (including, in the case of any replacement
of a Term Lender pursuant to clause (iv) above on or prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, any premium payable
pursuant to Section 2.10(g) on the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of such Lender subject to such assignment)
plus all Fees and other amounts owing to or accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (including any
amounts under Sections 2.12 and 2.13); provided, further, that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment
the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section
2.13(a) or (b) or notice under Section 2.12(e) or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15, as the case
may be, cease to cause such Lender or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable
or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.12(e), or cease to result in
amounts being payable under Section 2.15, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or
such Issuing Bank pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.16), or if such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right
to claim further compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw
its notice under Section 2.12(e) or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.15 in respect of such
circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then
such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender
and each Issuing Bank 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 and such Issuing Bank as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary
to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated
by this Section 2.16(b). After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters
of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit.


 




    	 	82	 



     


    

 


(c)          Defaulting
Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,
then (i) during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender,”
and the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans, Term Commitments, Term Loans, Swingline
Exposure and LC Exposure shall be excluded for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on any matters (including the
granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents, except that the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s
Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans, Term Commitments, Term Loans, Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be included for purposes
of voting, and the calculation of voting, on the matters set forth in Sections 11.02(b)(i)-(viii) and 11.02(b)(x)-(xii)
(including the granting of any consents or waivers) only to the extent that any such matter disproportionately affects such Defaulting
Lender; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such
Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (A) any optional prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a)
shall, if the Administrative Borrower so directs at the time of making such optional prepayment, be applied to the Revolving Loans
of other Revolving Lenders in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had no Revolving Loans outstanding
and the Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (B) any mandatory prepayment of the Revolving Loans pursuant
to Section 2.10 shall, if the Administrative Borrower so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied
to the Revolving Loans and Revolving Exposure of other Revolving Lenders (but not to the Revolving Loans and Revolving Exposure
of such Defaulting Lender) in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of
such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that the Borrowers shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory
prepayment of the Revolving Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions
of this clause (B); (iii) the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans and LC Exposure shall
be excluded for purposes of calculating the Commitment Fee payable to Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(a) in respect
of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to
receive any Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.05(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment
in respect of any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender; (iv) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at
the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: (A) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall
be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments
but, in any case, only to the extent the sum of the Revolving Exposures of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders
does not exceed the total of the Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders; (B) if the reallocation
described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent),
the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) prepay such
Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender and (y) Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving
effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18(i)
for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; (C) if the Borrowers Cash Collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s
LC Exposure pursuant to this clause (iv), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any LC Participation Fee to such Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized; (D) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant
to this clause (iv), then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be adjusted in accordance
with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ reallocated LC Exposure; and (E) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither
Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this clause (iv), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing
Bank or any Lender hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with
respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and LC Participation
Fee payable under Section 2.05 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to each applicable
Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated; (v) the Revolving Exposure of all Lenders as at
any date of determination shall be calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender;
and (vi) so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline
Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related
exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided
by the Borrowers in accordance with clause (iv) of this Section 2.16(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued
or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent
with clause (iv)(A) of this Section 2.16(c) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). In the event that each
of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately
remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure, LC Exposure and Revolving
Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment
and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders as the
Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance
with its Revolving Commitment.

Section 2.17         Swingline
Loans


 


(a)          Swingline
Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the
Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) from time to time on any Business Day after the Closing Date and during the Revolving
Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (and upon each such Borrowing
of Swingline Loans, each Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that such Borrowing will not result in) (i) the aggregate
principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Swingline Commitment, or (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure exceeding
the Total Revolving Commitments at such time; provided, that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline
Loan to refinance, in whole or in part, any outstanding Swingline Loans. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans.


 


(b)          Swingline
Loans. To request a Swingline Loan, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery, email through a “pdf”
copy or telecopier, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been
approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent and
the Swingline Lender, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such
notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Swingline
Loan, the location and number of the respective Borrower’s account to which the funds are to be disbursed (which shall comply
with the requirements of Section 2.02(c)), and that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and (c))
are satisfied as of the date of the notice. Each Swingline Loan shall be (and shall be maintained as) an ABR Loan. The Swingline
Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Administrative
Borrower with the Swingline Lender, if any, or otherwise remitted to an account (which shall comply with the requirements of Section
2.02(c)) as directed by the Administrative Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan
made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.18(e), by remittance to the respective
Issuing Bank). The Swingline Lender shall endeavor to fund each Swingline Loan by 3:00 p.m., New York City time and shall in all
events fund each Swingline Loan by no later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Swingline
Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 above such amount.


 


(c)          Prepayment.
The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon the
Administrative Borrower giving written notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent before 2:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the proposed date of repayment.


 




    	 	85	 



     


    

 


(d)          Participations.
The Swingline Lender (i) may at any time in its discretion and (ii) as directed by the Administrative Agent from time to time on
not less than one Business Day’s written notice to the Swingline Lender shall, by written notice given to the Administrative
Agent (provided such notice requirements shall not apply if the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent are the same
entity) not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following such notice, require the Revolving
Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice
shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such
notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Revolving Lender’s
Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt
of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s
Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire
participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.17(d) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or a reduction or termination of the Revolving
Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long
as such payment shall not cause such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving
Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this Section 2.17(d) by wire transfer of immediately
available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving
Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative
Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Administrative Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired by the Revolving Lenders pursuant
to this Section 2.17(d), and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent
and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrowers (or other party on behalf of the
Borrowers) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein
shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent. Any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this Section 2.17(d),
as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this Section 2.17(d) shall
not relieve the Borrowers of any default in the payment thereof. Subject to Sections 2.10(c), 2.14(b) and 9.01,
the Administrative Agent may apply payments on Revolving Loans to Swingline Loans, regardless of any designation by the Borrowers
to the contrary. The provisions of this Section 2.17(d) are solely for the benefit of the Swingline Lender and the other
Lenders, and none of the Loan Parties may rely on this Section 2.17(d) or have any standing to enforce its terms.


 


(e)          Resignation
or Removal of the Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender may resign as Swingline Lender hereunder at any time upon at least
30 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower. Following such notice
of resignation from the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Administrative
Borrower (with the Administrative Borrower’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Administrative
Agent and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline
Lender. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall repay
the outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans and shall pay all interest and unpaid fees accrued for the account of the
replaced Swingline Lender. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Swingline
Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans to
be made by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Swingline Lender”
shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline
Lenders, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of the Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline
Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swingline Lender under this
Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to make
additional Swingline Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17(e) or otherwise, the Swingline
Lender may not resign until such time as a successor Swingline Lender has been appointed.

Section 2.18         Letters
of Credit.


 


(a)          General.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Borrower may request an Issuing Bank, and each Issuing
Bank agrees, to issue Letters of Credit for the Administrative Borrower’s account or the account of the Co-Borrower or another
Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower, in each case to support payment and performance obligations
incurred in the ordinary course of business by the Administrative Borrower and its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries (other
than obligations in respect of any Restricted Indebtedness or Equity Interests) in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable
Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period (provided, that each Borrower shall
be a co-applicant, and shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any
Borrower or another Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower). No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation
to issue, and the Administrative Borrower shall not request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit at any time if after giving effect
to such issuance, (i) the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure would exceed the LC Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure would
exceed the Total Revolving Commitments at such time, or (iii) the expiry date of the proposed Letter of Credit is, subject to Section
2.18(c), on or after the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date. In the event of any inconsistency between
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement
submitted by the Administrative Borrower to, or entered into by the Administrative Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any
Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars
or in an Alternative Currency.


 


(b)          Request
for Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver by hand, email through a “pdf”
copy or telecopies, or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic communication if arrangements for doing so have
been approved in writing by the respective Issuing Bank) an LC Request to the respective Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent
not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day preceding the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension (or such later date and time as is acceptable to the respective Issuing Bank).


 


A request for an initial
issuance of a Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the respective Issuing Bank:


 


(i)           the
proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day);


 


(ii)          the
face amount and currency (which must be Dollars or an Alternative Currency) thereof;


 


(iii)         the
expiry date thereof (which shall not be, subject to Section 2.18(c), later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date);


 


(iv)         the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof;


 




    	 	87	 



     


    

 


(v)          whether
the Letter of Credit is to be issued for the Administrative Borrower’s own account or for the account of the Co-Borrower
or another Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower (provided, that each Borrower shall be a co-applicant,
and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or a Wholly Owned
Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower);


 


(vi)         the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder;


 


(vii)       the
full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; and


 


(viii)      such
other matters as the respective Issuing Bank may reasonably require.


 


A request for an amendment,
renewal or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the respective
Issuing Bank:


 


(i)           the
Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended;


 


(ii)          the
proposed date of amendment, renewal or extension thereof (which shall be a Business Day);


 


(iii)         the
nature of the proposed amendment, renewal or extension;


 


(iv)         the
expiry date thereof (which shall not be, subject to Section 2.18(c), later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date); and


 


(v)          such
other matters as the respective Issuing Bank may reasonably require.


 


If requested by an Issuing
Bank, the Administrative Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in
connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall apply
in respect of all such applications. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and, upon issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant
that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure shall not
exceed the LC Commitment, (ii) the Total Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments at such time, and
(iii) the conditions set forth in Article IV in respect of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension shall have been
satisfied. Unless an Issuing Bank shall agree otherwise, no Letter of Credit shall be in an initial amount less than the Dollar
Amount of $50,000.


 


(c)          Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date which is one year
after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such
renewal or extension) and (ii) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, that this Section 2.18(c) shall not
prevent an Issuing Bank from agreeing that a Letter of Credit (x) will, upon the request of the Administrative Borrower, automatically
be extended for one or more successive periods not to exceed one year each (and, in any case, not to extend beyond the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date) unless such Issuing Bank elects not to extend for any such additional period or (y) may have an expiry
date beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date so long as the requested Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized by the
Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.18(i) at least five Business Days prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date.


 




    	 	88	 



     


    

 


(d)          Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further
action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably grants to each Revolving Lender, and
each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to the Dollar Amount
of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.
In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay
to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s
Pro Rata Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided
in Section 2.18(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving
Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this Section 2.18(d) in respect
of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the
Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever
(so long as such payment shall not cause the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Revolving
Lender’s Revolving Commitment).


 


(e)          Reimbursement.
(i) If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers, jointly and severally,
shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to such Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement (and
in the same currency in which such LC Disbursement was made or, at the option of such Issuing Bank in the case of an LC Disbursement
in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, in the Dollar Amount thereof) not later than 1:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made if the Administrative Borrower shall have received notice of
such LC Disbursement prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Administrative
Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following
the day that the Administrative Borrower receives such notice; provided, that the Administrative Borrower may, subject to
the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with
ABR Revolving Loans in an equivalent Dollar Amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such
payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loans.


 


(ii)          If
the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, or if the amount is not financed pursuant to the proviso to Section 2.18(e)(i),
the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender
of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and the Dollar Amount of such Revolving
Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to
the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received
such notice later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on any day, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the immediately
following Business Day), an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the unreimbursed
LC Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving
Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving
Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrowers
pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.18(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Lender makes any payment pursuant to
the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers thereafter will be promptly
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as appropriate.


 




    	 	89	 



     


    

 


(iii)         If
any Revolving Lender shall not have made the Dollar Amount of its Pro Rata Percentage of such LC Disbursement available to the
Administrative Agent as provided above, each of the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis) and such Revolving Lender severally
agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance
with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable
Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided, that, if
the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 2.18(e), then the Default
Rate shall apply and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Lender, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined
by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.


 


(f)           Obligations
Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrowers as provided in Section 2.18(e) shall be absolute, unconditional
and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term
or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by any
Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to comply with the terms of
such Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might,
but for the provisions of this Section 2.18, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff
against, the obligations of any Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (vi) any
material adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, assets, liabilities (contingent or otherwise),
material agreements, properties, solvency, business, management, prospects or value of any Company; or (vii) any other fact, circumstance
or event whatsoever. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure
to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error,
omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating
to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical
terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided, that the foregoing
shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed
to consequential, exemplary, special, punitive or other indirect damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each
Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s
failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the
terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of
the applicable Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision) with respect
to such a determination, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of
the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear
on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion,
either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or
information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance
with the terms of such Letter of Credit.


 




    	 	90	 



     


    

 


(g)          Disbursement
Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent
a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent
and the Administrative Borrower of such demand for payment (and the amount thereof stated in the applicable currency) and whether
such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving
such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their joint and several Reimbursement Obligations to such Issuing Bank and the Revolving
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth
in Section 2.18(e)).


 


(h)          Interim
Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement
in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the Dollar Amount of the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on
demand, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is paid or disbursed to but excluding the date such Issuing
Bank was reimbursed by the Borrowers therefor at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate as in effect from time to time
plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Revolving Loans; provided, however, to the extent such amounts are not reimbursed
prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day following such payment or disbursement or following the occurrence
of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 8.01(g) or (h), interest shall thereafter accrue on the Dollar
Amount of the amounts so paid or disbursed by such Issuing Bank (and until reimbursed by the Borrowers) at a rate per annum equal
to the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.18(h) shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing
Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(e)
to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.


 


(i)           Cash
Collateralization. If (x) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower
receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this
Section 2.18(i) or (y) if any other event occurs or condition exists requiring the Borrowers to Cash Collateralize Letters
of Credit, the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall deposit in the LC Sub-Account, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount in cash equal to 103% of the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus
any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided, that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence
of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 8.01. Funds
in the LC Sub-Account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it
has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations
or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations of the Borrowers in accordance
with Article IX. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence
of an Event of Default, such amount plus any accrued interest with respect to such amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid)
shall, in accordance with Article IX, be returned to the Administrative Borrower within 10 Business Days after all Events
of Default have been cured or waived. To secure the LC Exposure and the other Secured Obligations, the Borrowers and Subsidiary
Guarantors hereby grant a security interest to the Collateral Agent in any cash collateral deposited with the Collateral Agent,
including the LC Sub-Account.

(j)           Additional
Issuing Banks. The Administrative Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate one or more additional Revolving
Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement, with the written consent of each of the Administrative Agent
(which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), each then existing Issuing Bank (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) and such Revolving Lender(s). Any Revolving Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this Section
2.18(j) shall be deemed (in addition to being a Revolving Lender) to be the Issuing Bank with respect to Letters of Credit
issued or to be issued by such Revolving Lender, and all references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing
Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Lender in its capacity as Issuing Bank,
as the context shall require.


 


(k)          Resignation
and Replacement of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’
prior written notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower. Following such resignation, such
Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank or any such
additional Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers, jointly and severally,
shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.05(c). From and after
the effective date of any such resignation or replacement or addition, as applicable, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank
shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued
by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall
be deemed to refer to such successor or such additional or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such additional
and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder,
the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be
required to issue additional Letters of Credit. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, the Administrative
Borrower may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.


 


(l)           Other.
No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue (or increase or extend or otherwise amend) any Letter of Credit if:


 


(i)           any
Order of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing
such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having
the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such
Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon
such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve, liquidity or Capital Requirement (for which such
Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank
any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and, in each case, which such Issuing Bank
deems material to it; or


 


(ii)          the
issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of general application of such Issuing Bank.


 


No Issuing Bank shall
be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such
Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the
proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.


 




    	 	92	 



     


    

 


(m)         Currency
Equivalents. The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of each Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative
Currency and any Reimbursement Obligation in respect thereof (i) as of the day of any issuance of a Letter of Credit, (ii) as of
the day of any increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit, (iii) as of the day of any drawing thereunder, (iv) as of the end
of each month of the Administrative Borrower and (v) as of any other day as any Issuing Bank may reasonably require, and shall
promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of each Dollar Amount so determined by it. Each such determination
shall be based on the Exchange Rate (w) on the date of the related LC Request for purposes of the initial such determination for
any Letter of Credit or any increase in the amount thereof, (x) as of the date of any drawing under any such Letter of Credit,
(y) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined and (z) as of such other date
as any Issuing Bank may reasonably require, for purposes of any subsequent determination (any such date pursuant to clause (w),
(x), (y) or (z) an “Exchange Rate Reset Date”).


 


Section 2.19         Nature
of Obligations.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is understood and agreed by the various
parties to this Agreement that all Obligations to repay principal of, interest on, and all other amounts with respect to, all Loans,
Letters of Credit and all other Obligations pursuant to this Agreement and each other Loan Document (including all fees, indemnities,
taxes and other Obligations in connection therewith or in connection with the related Revolving Commitments) shall constitute the
joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for all Obligations
regardless of which Borrower actually receives the proceeds of any Loan or the benefit of any Letter of Credit. In addition to
the direct (and joint and several) obligations of the Borrowers with respect to Obligations as described above, all such Obligations
shall be guaranteed pursuant to, and in accordance with the terms of, the Guarantees.


 


(b)          The
obligations of each Borrower with respect to the Obligations are independent of one another and of the obligations of the Guarantors
under the Guarantees of such Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Borrower
and each Guarantor (in its capacity as a Guarantor), whether or not any other Borrower or Guarantor is joined in any such action
or actions. Each Borrower waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its
liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute
of limitations as to any Borrower shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, operate to toll the statute of limitations as
to each Borrower.


 


(c)          Each
of the Borrowers authorizes the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders without notice or
demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability
hereunder, from time to time to, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and the Loan Documents:


 


(i)           exercise
or refrain from exercising rights against the other Borrower or any Guarantor or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;


 


(ii)          release
or substitute the other Borrower, endorsers, Guarantors or other obligors;


 




    	 	93	 



     


    

 


(iii)         settle
or compromise any of the Obligations of the other Borrower or any other Loan Party, any security therefor or any liability (including
any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or
any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of the Borrower to its creditors other than the Lenders;


 


(iv)        apply
any sums paid by the other Borrower or any other person, howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of such other Borrower
or other person regardless of what liability or liabilities of such other Borrower or other person remain unpaid; and/or


 


(v)         consent
to or waive any breach of, or act, omission or default under, this Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to
herein, or otherwise, by the other Borrower or any other person.


 


(d)          It
is not necessary for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to inquire into the capacity
or powers of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting
to act on its behalf, and any Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall constitute
the joint and several obligations of the respective Borrowers hereunder.


 


(e)          No
Borrower shall exercise any rights of contribution or subrogation with respect to any other Borrower as a result of payments made
by it hereunder at any time that an Event of Default exists and is continuing (or would result therefrom). This clause (e) is intended
only to define the relative rights of the Borrowers, and nothing set forth in this clause (e) is intended or shall impair the joint
and several obligations of each Borrower to pay the Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance
with the terms hereof.


 


(f)           Each
Borrower waives any right to require the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders to (a) proceed
against the other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from either Borrower,
any Guarantor or any other party or (c) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s, the Collateral Agent’s,
the Issuing Banks’ or Lenders’ power whatsoever. Each Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of suretyship
or any impairment of security held from any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party or on or arising out of any defense of the
other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations, including any defense based
on or arising out of the disability of any other Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Obligations
or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Borrower, in each case other
than as a result of the payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

Section 2.20         Extensions
of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Request”) made
from time to time by the Borrowers to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like Maturity Date or Revolving Commitments with a like
Maturity Date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans
or Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers
are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such
Extension Request to extend the Maturity Date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise
modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Request (including
by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings)
and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”,
and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), as applicable, in each case as so extended, as
well as the original Term Loans and the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) (in each case not so extended),
being a “Class”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term
Loans from which they were converted and any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments
from the Class of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) except
as to interest rates, fees, optional redemption or prepayment terms, final maturity, and after the final maturity date of the Revolving
Commitment, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrowers and the relevant Revolving Lenders and
set forth in the relevant Extension Request), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender extended pursuant to an Extension
(an “Extended Revolving Commitment”, such Revolving Lender, an “Extending Revolving Lender”,
and the Revolving Loans thereunder, “Extended Revolving Loans”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving
Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole,
no more favorable to the Extending Revolving Lenders, as the original Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided
that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except (A) for payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments
(and related outstandings), (B) for repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Commitments) of Revolving
Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date, and (C) as otherwise provided in Section
2.23 with respect to Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments that are unsecured or secured on a junior basis shall be made
on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans
which mature or expire after a Maturity Date when there exist Extended Revolving Commitments with a longer Maturity Date, all Swingline
Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Revolving Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance
with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments (without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect
to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued, although the respective Extension Amendment
may contain technical changes related to the borrowing, replacement Letter of Credit and Swingline Loan procedures of the Revolving
Commitments in respect of which the Extended Revolving Commitments were extended), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving
Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on
a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrowers shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate
commitments of any Revolving Facility on a better than pro rata basis as compared to any other Revolving Facility with a later
Maturity Date (x) if agreed to by the Revolving Lenders in respect of such Revolving Facility with a later Maturity Date in the
respective Extension Amendment or (y) if such Extended Revolving Commitments are unsecured or secured on a junior basis, (4) assignments
and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable
to Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and (5) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including
Extended Revolving Commitments, Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments and any original Revolving Commitments) which have
more than three different Revolving Maturity Dates; (ii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date,
optional prepayments, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately
succeeding clauses (iii), (iv) and (vi), be determined by the Borrowers and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant
Extension Request), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending
Term Lender” and, collectively with the applicable Extending Revolving Lender, the “Extending Lenders”)
extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as
a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Term Loans subject to such Extension Request
(except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the then Latest Maturity Date), (iii) the final maturity
date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date, (iv) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity
of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended
thereby, (v) the Extended Term Loans and the Extended Revolving Commitments shall not be (A) secured by any Lien on any asset other
than the Collateral and (B) guaranteed by any person other than the Guarantors, (vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on
a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any optional or mandatory repayments
or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Request, (vii) if the aggregate principal amount
of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders
or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request shall exceed the maximum aggregate
principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to
such Extension Request, then the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, of such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders,
as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed
actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such
Extension Request (subject to rounding required by the Administrative Agent) and (viii) all documentation in respect of such Extension
shall be consistent with the foregoing. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans or Revolving
Commitments extended pursuant to an Extension Request.


 




    	 	95	 



     


    

 


(b)          With
respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.20, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute
optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.10 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to
be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and
the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.20 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest,
fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, on such terms
as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including
Sections 2.10 and 2.14(a)) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other
transaction contemplated by this Section 2.20.


 


(c)          The
Administrative Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least 15 Business Days (or such shorter period as the
Administrative Agent may determine in its sole discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Class of Term
Loans or Revolving Commitments are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by,
or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.20.
Any Extending Lender wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to such Extension Request
converted into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (an
“Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its existing
Term Loans or Revolving Commitments subject to such Extension Request that it has elected to convert into Extended Term Loans or
Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent
and proration as provided in clause (vii) of Section 2.20(a)).


 




    	 	96	 



     


    

 


(d)          Extended
Term Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension
Amendment”) to this Agreement and, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the other Loan Documents (which,
except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.20(d) and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth in Section 11.02, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders
with respect to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, established thereby) executed by the
Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the respective Extending Lenders. In addition to any
terms and changes required or permitted by Section 2.20(a), each Extension Amendment may amend this Agreement to ensure
ratable participation in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans by Extended Revolving Commitments. It is understood and agreed
that each Lender hereunder has consented, and shall at the effective time thereof be deemed to consent, to each amendment to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents authorized by this Section 2.20 and the arrangements described above in connection
therewith.


 


In connection with any
Extension Amendment, the Borrowers shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (i) as
to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if
any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence)
and (ii) covering such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.


 


(e)          In
the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of Extended Term Loans or Extended
Revolving Commitments to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt
and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable
Extension Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized
to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Amendment”) within 15 days following the effective date of such
Extension Amendment, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion and extension
of Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Exposure) or Term Loans, as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause
such Lender to hold Extended Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Exposure) or Extended Term Loans, as the case may be,
in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation
of the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Amendment, in
the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension
Amendment described in Section 2.20(d)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference
and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.20(d).


 


(f)          No
exchange or conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section
2.20 shall (x) be made at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and no Extension Request shall
be delivered to the Lenders at any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) and (y) constitute an optional
or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.


 


Section 2.21         Increases
of the Commitments.


 


(a)          The
Borrowers may, from time to time after the Closing Date, request to increase the then effective aggregate principal amount of (x)
the Term Commitments and make Term Loans pursuant thereto (such Term Loans, “Incremental
Term Loans”) and/or (y) the Revolving Commitments of any Revolving Facility (such Revolving Commitments, “Incremental
Revolving Commitments”) and make Revolving Loans pursuant thereto (such Revolving Loans, “Incremental Revolving
Loans”); provided that:


 




    	 	97	 



     


    

 


(i)          the
aggregate principal amount of (x) all increases in the Term Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21 and the aggregate
principal amount of all Incremental Term Loans made pursuant thereto and (y) all increases in the Revolving Commitments pursuant
to this Section 2.21 shall not exceed $50,000,000, and the aggregate principal amount of any requested increase shall be
in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 (or $5,000,000 in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments or, in either case, such lower
amount that represents all remaining availability pursuant to this Section 2.21); provided that the Borrowers
may not obtain more than $25,000,000 in the aggregate of Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.21;


 


(ii)         the
incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans pursuant to any such increase shall be on the effective date of the respective Incremental
Loan Amendment and the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans
shall be used for the purposes permitted by Section 3.12;


 


(iii)        the
Borrowers and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver such agreements, instruments and documents and take such other actions as
may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such increases and at the time of any such proposed
increase;


 


(iv)        (x)
no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur after giving effect to such increase and the application of proceeds
therefrom (or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans the proceeds of which are used to finance
a Limited Condition Acquisition, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date that the definitive agreements relating
to such Limited Condition Acquisition are executed and become effective) and (y) except to the extent otherwise agreed to
by the respective Increasing Lenders and/or New Lenders in the case of Incremental Term Loans the proceeds of which are used to
finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, both immediately before and after giving effect to any such increase and the application
of proceeds therefrom, each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party set forth in Article III or in
any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true and correct in all respects in the case of
representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect) on and as of the date of such increase with
the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate
to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (or true
and correct in all respects in the case of representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect)
on and as of such earlier date);


 


(v)         immediately
after giving effect to any such increase and/or the incurrence of any such Incremental Term Loans and the application of proceeds
therefrom (but, for this purpose, assuming that Incremental Revolving Loans are incurred at such time in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate Incremental Revolving Commitments so obtained (whether or not such Incremental Revolving Loans are
actually incurred at such time), the Administrative Borrower shall be in compliance with the Loan to Value Test; and


 




    	 	98	 



     


    

 


(vi)        (A)
in the case of any Revolving Facility, Incremental Revolving Commitments may only take the form of an increase in Revolving Commitments
hereunder, and the terms of any respective Incremental Revolving Commitments (including as to maturity and pricing rates
but excluding upfront fees) shall be the same as the Revolving Facility being increased and the
documentation applicable to such Revolving Facility shall apply and (B) in the case of any Incremental Term Loans, except as otherwise
required below, all other terms of such Incremental Term Loans, if not consistent with the terms of the Initial Term Loans, will
be as agreed between the Borrowers and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans (and to the extent not consistent with
the Initial Term Loans, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent); provided, however, that (x) in the
case of a new Class of Incremental Term Loans, (I) the maturity and amortization of such Class of Incremental Term Loans may differ,
so long as such Class of Incremental Term Loans shall have (a) a final stated maturity date of no earlier than the Latest Maturity
Date then in effect and (b) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity as then in
effect for the Initial Term Loans (other than to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated
or reduced as a result of prepayment of such Initial Term Loans) and (II) the Effective Yield for such new Class of Incremental
Term Loans may exceed the Effective Yield then applicable to the Initial Term Loans, provided that, in the event that the
Effective Yield for such new Class of Incremental Term Loans exceeds the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans by more than
0.50%, the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased (to the extent necessary) such that the Effective Yield
thereof is not less than the Effective Yield of such new Class of Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50%, (y) Incremental Term Loans
will share ratably in right of prepayment with the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 (unless the Lenders holding
such Incremental Term Loans agree to participate on a less than ratable basis) and (z) in the case of Incremental Term Loans to
be made pursuant to (and to constitute a part of) the Initial Term Loans, (I) such new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same
Term Loan Repayment Dates as then remain with respect to such Initial Term Loans (with the amount of each payment on each Term
Loan Repayment Date applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans to be the same (on a proportionate basis) as is theretofore applicable
to the Initial Term Loans, thereby increasing the amount of each then remaining payment on each Term Loan Repayment Date proportionately,
(II) such new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same Applicable Margin as the Initial Term Loans; provided that, if
the Applicable Margin for such new Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans, the
Applicable Margin for such Initial Term Loans shall be increased by an amount necessary to eliminate such deficiency, (III) subject
to preceding clause (II), the Effective Yield applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrowers
and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans; provided that if the Effective Yield of such new Incremental Term
Loans exceeds the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans, the Effective Yield for such Initial Term Loans shall be increased
(to the extent necessary) such that the Effective Yield thereof is not less than the Effective Yield of such new Incremental Term
Loans minus 0.50%, and (IV) on the date of the making of such new Incremental Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary
set forth in Section 2.08, such new Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and form part of) each Borrowing of outstanding
Initial Term Loans on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various outstanding Borrowings), so that each Lender
will participate proportionately in each then outstanding Borrowing of Initial Term Loans and the Borrowers hereby agree, jointly
and severally, to compensate the Lenders making the new Incremental Term loans of the respective Class for funding Eurodollar Loans
during an existing Interest Period on such basis as may be agreed by the Administrative Borrower and the respective Lender or Lenders
or as may otherwise be provided in the respective Incremental Loan Amendment.

(b)          Any
request under this Section 2.21 shall be submitted by the Administrative Borrower in writing to the Administrative
Agent (which shall promptly forward copies to the Lenders).  The Administrative Borrower may also specify any fees offered
to those Lenders (the “Increasing Lenders”) that agree to increase the principal amount of their Term Commitments
and make Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto and/or their Revolving Commitments and make Incremental Revolving Loans pursuant
thereto, which fees may be variable based upon the amount by which any such Lender is willing to increase the amount of its Term
Commitment and make Incremental Term Loans and/or its Revolving Commitments and make Incremental Revolving Loans pursuant thereto. 
No Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to offer to increase the aggregate amount of its Term Commitment or Revolving
Commitment.  Only the consent of each Increasing Lender shall be required for an increase in the aggregate amount of the Term
Commitments and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.21.  No Lender which declines to
increase the amount of its Term Commitment and/or Revolving Commitments may be replaced with respect to its existing Term Commitment
or Revolving Commitment as a result thereof without such Lender’s consent.


 


(c)          Each
Increasing Lender shall as soon as reasonably practicable specify in writing the amount of the proposed increase of the Term Commitments
and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, that it is willing to assume (provided that any Lender not so responding within
five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be specified by the Administrative Agent) shall be deemed to have declined such
a request).  The Borrowers may accept some or all of the offered amounts or designate new lenders that are reasonably acceptable
to the Administrative Agent and, in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, to each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender,
as additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with this Section 2.21 (each such new lender being a “New Lender”),
which New Lenders may assume all or a portion of the increase in the aggregate amount of the applicable Term Commitments and/or
Revolving Commitments, as applicable.  The Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, shall have
discretion jointly to adjust the allocation of the increased aggregate principal amount of the Term Commitments and/or Revolving
Commitments, as applicable, among Increasing Lenders and New Lenders.


 


(d)          Subject
to the foregoing, any increase requested by the Borrowers shall be effective upon (A) delivery to the Administrative Agent
of each of the following documents: (i) an originally executed copy of a joinder agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Joinder Agreement”) signed by a duly authorized officer of
each New Lender (if any); (ii) a notice to the Increasing Lenders and New Lenders, in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to the Administrative Agent, signed by a Financial Officer of the Administrative Borrower; (iii) an Officer’s Certificate
of the Administrative Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; (iv) to the extent requested
by any New Lender or Increasing Lender, executed Notes issued by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.04(e); (v) an
amendment (an “Incremental Loan Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents,
executed by each Borrower, each Guarantor, each Increasing Lender (if any), each New Lender (if any) and the Administrative Agent;
and (vi) any other certificates or documents that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (B) satisfaction on the effective date of the Incremental Loan Amendment
of (x) each of the conditions specified in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date
of such Credit Extension” or similar language in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date
of the Incremental Loan Amendment), and (y) such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree.  Any such increase shall
be in an aggregate amount equal to (A) the amount that Increasing Lenders are willing to assume as increases to the amount of their
Term Commitments or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, plus (B) the amount offered by New Lenders with respect to the Term Commitments
or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in either case as adjusted by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent
pursuant to this Section 2.21.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.02, the Administrative
Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of the other Lenders, to amend the Loan Documents to the extent necessary or
appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to give effect to any increases pursuant to this Section 2.21.

(e)          On
each effective date with respect to any increase to any Revolving Facility pursuant to this Section 2.21, (x) each Revolving
Lender in respect of such Revolving Facility immediately prior to such increase or incurrence will automatically and without further
act be deemed to have assigned to each Increasing Lender and/or New Lender, as applicable, providing a portion of the increase
to such Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”),
and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion
of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding LC Exposure under the applicable Revolving Facility and
Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage
of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in LC Exposure and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held
by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) under the applicable Revolving Facility will
equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments in respect of such Revolving Facility of all Revolving Lenders represented
by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment in respect of such Revolving Facility and (y) if, on the date of such increase,
there are any Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the
effective date of such increase be prepaid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility made hereunder
(reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving
Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Revolving Lender in accordance with Section 2.13. The Administrative
Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere
in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.


 


Section
2.22         Discounted Voluntary Prepayments. 


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.10 or any other provision of this Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions
set forth or referred to below, the Borrowers may from time to time, at their discretion, offer to prepay Term Loans at less than
the principal amount thereof (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Offer”), and with each such Discounted Prepayment
Offer to be managed exclusively by the Auction Manager, so long as the following conditions are satisfied:


 


(i)          each
Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section
2.22 and the Auction Procedures;


 


(ii)         no
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the delivery of any Auction Notice and at the time of prepayment of
any Term Loans in connection with any Discounted Prepayment Offer;


 


(iii)        the
minimum aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans that the Borrowers shall offer to
prepay in any such Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative
Agent);


 




    	 	101	 



     


    

 


(iv)        all
Term Loans so prepaid by the Borrowers shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrowers on the applicable settlement
date (and, for the avoidance of doubt, may not be reborrowed);


 


(v)         no
more than one Discounted Prepayment Offer may be ongoing at any one time and no more than four Discounted Prepayment Offers may
be made in any four-quarter period;


 


(vi)        the
Borrowers represent and warrant that, at the commencement and settlement of the Discounted Prepayment Offer, they do not have material
information regarding the Term Loans or Holdings, the Administrative Borrower, their respective Subsidiaries or their respective
Affiliates that has not been disclosed to those who are not Lenders or shall disclose to the Lenders that it cannot make such representation
and warranty;


 


(vii)       each
Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be open and offered to all Lenders of the relevant Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis;


 


(viii)      no
purchase of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall be made with proceeds received from the incurrence of Revolving
Loans or Swingline Loans; and


 


(ix)         at
the time of the consummation of each purchase of Term Loans through a Discounted Prepayment Offer, the Administrative Borrower
shall have delivered to the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent an officer’s certificate of a Responsible Officer
of the Administrative Borrower certifying as to compliance with preceding clauses (ii), (vi) and (vii).


 


(b)          The
Borrowers must terminate any Discounted Prepayment Offer if they fail to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above
which are required to be satisfied at the time at which the Term Loans would have been prepaid pursuant to such Discounted Prepayment
Offer. If the Borrowers commence any Discounted Prepayment Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required
to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Discounted Prepayment Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such
time of commencement the Borrowers reasonably believe that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied
at the time of the consummation of such Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be satisfied, then the Borrowers shall have no liability
to any Lender or any other person for any termination of such Discounted Prepayment Offer as a result of their failure to satisfy
one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time which otherwise would have been the
time of consummation of such Discounted Prepayment Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Default hereunder. With
respect to all prepayments of Term Loans made by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.22, the Borrowers, jointly and
severally, shall pay on the settlement date of each such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent otherwise
set forth in the relevant Auction Procedures), if any, on the prepaid Term Loans up to the settlement date of such prepayment.


 


(c)          All
Term Loan prepayments conducted pursuant to Discounted Prepayment Offers shall not constitute optional or mandatory prepayments
for purposes of Section 2.10, but the face amount of the Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.22 shall be
applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans in inverse order of maturity.


 




    	 	102	 



     


    

 


(d)          Immediately
upon a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.22, (x) such Term Loans and all rights and obligations as
a Lender related thereto shall for all purposes (including under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise) be deemed
to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrowers shall neither
obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such payment and (y) the Borrowers
shall take all actions necessary to cause such Term Loans to be extinguished or otherwise cancelled in its books and records in
accordance with GAAP.


 


(e)          The
Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article X
and Section 11.03 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were
a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested
by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Discounted Prepayment
Offer.


 


(f)          No
Lender shall be obligated or required to participate in any Discounted Prepayment Offer.


 


Section
2.23         Specified Refinancing Term Loans and Specified Refinancing
Revolving Commitments.


 


(a)          The
Borrowers may, from time to time after the Closing Date, and subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), add one or more new term loan facilities (“Specified Refinancing
Term Loans”) or new revolving credit facilities (“Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments”) under
this Agreement pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrowers,
to refinance all or any portion of any Class of Term Loan or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), as applicable, then
outstanding under this Agreement (subject to clause (A) of the proviso at the end of this sentence), in each case pursuant to a
Refinancing Amendment; provided that any such Specified Refinancing Term Loans and Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments:
(i) will rank pari passu in right of payment as the other Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, hereunder;
(ii) will be incurred, jointly and severally, by the Borrowers and will not be guaranteed by any person that is not a Guarantor;
(iii) will be, if secured, (1) secured solely by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Liens securing
the Obligations and (2) subject to intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (iv) will have
such pricing and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrowers and the applicable Lenders thereof; (v) will have
a maturity date that is not prior to the Maturity Date of the Term Loans or the Revolving Commitments, as applicable, being refinanced
and (x) in the case of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, shall not have any mandatory commitment reductions or amortization
that is prior to the scheduled Maturity Date of the Revolving Commitments being refinanced (other than a mandatory commitment reduction
in conjunction with a mandatory prepayment of Revolving Loans made pursuant thereto on the same basis as is applicable to the existing
Revolving Commitments pursuant to Sections 2.10(d) and (h)) and (y) in the case of any Specified Refinancing Term Loans, will have
a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity then in effect of the Term Loans
being refinanced; (vi) any Specified Refinancing Term Loans and Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments will share ratably
(or if unsecured or junior as to security, on a junior basis in respect of) any optional and mandatory prepayments of Term Loans
or Revolving Loans, as applicable (unless the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing
Revolving Commitments, as applicable, agree to participate on a less than pro rata basis in any such optional or mandatory prepayments);
(vii) subject to clauses (iv) and (v) above, will have terms and conditions (other than pricing and optional prepayment
and redemption terms) that are substantially identical to, or less favorable, when taken as a whole, to the Lenders providing such
Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, than, the terms and conditions
of the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments being refinanced (provided that a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the
Administrative Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent in good faith at least five Business Days prior to the incurrence
of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, together with a reasonably
detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or drafts of the documentation
relating thereto, stating that the Administrative Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy
the requirements set forth in this clause (vii) shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy such requirement
unless the Administrative Agent provides notice to the Administrative Borrower of an objection (including a reasonable description
of the basis upon which it objects) within five Business Days after being notified of such determination by the Administrative
Borrower); and (viii) (x) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans shall be applied, substantially concurrently
with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Term Loans being so refinanced, in each case pursuant to
Section 2.10(b)(viii) and (y) upon the incurrence of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Commitments
being refinanced shall be permanently reduced as, and to the extent, provided in Section 2.07(c); provided, however,
that (A) the Net Cash Proceeds from any incurrence of Specified Refinancing Term Loans may not be used to prepay any Class of outstanding
Term Loans that are either unsecured or secured on a junior basis to the Obligations at a time when more senior Term Loans are
outstanding (or will remain outstanding after giving effect to any such prepayment), (B) Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments
may not be used to refinance any Class of Revolving Commitments that are either unsecured or secured on a junior basis to other
Classes of Revolving Commitments at a time when more senior Revolving Commitments are outstanding (or will remain outstanding after
giving effect to any such refinancing) and (C) such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments,
as applicable, (x) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed
among the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the then Latest Maturity Date
in effect and (y) shall not have a principal amount (or accreted value) greater than the Term Loans being refinanced (plus all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and all fees, discounts, premiums or expenses incurred in connection therewith) or the Revolving
Commitments being refinanced, as applicable. The Administrative Borrower shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Term
Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to a written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying
in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. Any proposed Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving
Commitments, as applicable, shall first be requested on a ratable basis from existing Lenders in respect of the Term Loans or Revolving
Commitments being refinanced. At the time of sending such notice to such Lenders, the Administrative Borrower (in consultation
with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each applicable Lender is requested to respond (which
shall in no event be less than 15 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice or such shorter period as may be agreed
by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). Each applicable Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time
period whether or not it agrees to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving
Commitments, as applicable, and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its ratable portion (based on
such Lender’s ratable share in respect of the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Commitments) of such Specified Refinancing
Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments. Any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Specified Refinancing
Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Specified
Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable. Any Lender not responding within such time
period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in providing such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing
Revolving Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and each applicable Lender of the Lenders’
responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested issuance of Specified Refinancing Term Loans
or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), the Administrative Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to
become Lenders in respect of such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable,
pursuant to a joinder agreement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b)          
The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions
set forth in clause (a) above and Section 4.02, and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a certificate of the
Administrative Borrower dated the date thereof signed by a Responsible Officer of the Administrative Borrower, certifying and attaching
the resolutions adopted by the Borrowers approving such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments,
as applicable, and certifying that the conditions precedent set forth in clause (a) above and Section 4.02 have
been satisfied 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, including any supplements or amendments
to the Security Documents providing for such Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments to
be secured thereby, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Lenders hereby authorize
the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers and the Loan
Parties as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments and to make such technical
amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower
in connection with the establishment of such new Classes of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments, in each case on terms consistent
with and/or to effect the provisions of this Section 2.23.


 


(c)          Each
Class of Specified Refinancing Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.23 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that
is not less than $25,000,000. Each Class of Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments incurred under this Section 2.23
shall be in an aggregate amount that is not less than $10,000,000.


 


(d)          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 Specified Refinancing Term Loans or Specified Refinancing
Revolving Commitments incurred pursuant thereto (including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Refinancing Amendment may,
without the consent of any person other than the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing
Term Loans or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, 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 Administrative
Borrower, to effect the provisions of or consistent with this Section 2.23.

Section
3.04         Financial Statements; Projections. (a) The Administrative
Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Lenders (i) the audited consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements
of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as of the fiscal years ended December 31,
2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, (ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements
of income of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, for purposes of this clause, the Restricted Parent Subsidiaries
and their respective Subsidiaries) as of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and
(iii) (x) the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity
and cash flows of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and (y) the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements
of income of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, for purposes of this clause, the Restricted Parent Subsidiaries
and their respective Subsidiaries), in each case, for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017. Such financial statements,
and all financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a), (b) and (c), have been prepared in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied throughout the applicable period covered, respectively, thereby and present fairly and accurately
in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations and, if applicable, cash flows of Holdings, the Administrative
Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, for purposes of this clause, the Restricted Parent Subsidiaries and their respective
Subsidiaries), in each case, as of the dates and for the periods to which they relate (subject, in the case of interim financial
statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes). Except as set forth in such financial statements,
as of the Closing Date, there are no liabilities of Holdings, the Administrative Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries
of any kind, whether accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, that would reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(b)          The
Administrative Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Lenders an unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and related pro
forma consolidated statement of income of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, for purposes of this
clause, the Restricted Parent Subsidiaries and their respective Subsidiaries) as of and for the
twelve-month period ended March 31, 2017, in each case after giving effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on such
date in the case of the balance sheet and as of the beginning of such period in the case of the statement of income.  Such
pro forma financial statements (a) have been prepared in good faith by the Administrative Borrower based
upon (i) in each case, the assumptions stated therein (which assumptions are believed by the Administrative Borrower on
the Closing Date to be reasonable) and (ii) the best information available to the Administrative Borrower as
of the date of delivery thereof, (b) in the case of the balance sheet, accurately reflect all adjustments required to be made to
give effect to the Transactions, and (c) present fairly in all material respects the pro forma consolidated financial position
and results of operations of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as of such
date and for such period.


 


(c)          The
Administrative Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Lenders the forecasts of financial performance consisting of  projected

and their respective Subsidiaries), in each case, for the fiscal years 2017–2021 (the “Projections”)

fiscal year prepared in detail of the Administrative Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, with appropriate presentation and
discussion in reasonable detail of the principal assumptions upon which such budget is based, accompanied by a certificate of a
Financial Officer of the Administrative Borrower certifying that the budget is a reasonable estimate for the periods covered thereby;


 


(j)          Other
Reports and Filings. Promptly after the filing or delivery thereof, copies all financial information, proxy materials and reports,
if any, which any Company shall publicly file with the SEC or deliver to the holders (or
any trustee, agent or other representative therefor) of the Administrative Borrower’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’
material Indebtedness pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent that
any such information, proxy materials or reports are not independently delivered pursuant to this Agreement;


 


(k)          Environmental

in Section 3.19, is not in compliance with Section 5.09(a) or has delivered a notice pursuant to Section 5.02(e),
provide, at the Borrowers’ sole expense and at the request of the Administrative Agent, either (a) an environmental site
assessment report concerning the Real Property owned, leased or operated by such Company that
is the subject of any such breach, noncompliance or notice, prepared by an environmental consulting firm reasonably approved by
the Administrative Agent, provided that if the Borrowers fail to provide the same within 45 days after such request was
made, the Administrative Agent may order the same at any time thereafter if the Borrowers are not diligently pursuing the completion
of such report, the cost of which shall be borne by the Borrowers, and in such case the respective Loan Party shall grant and hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective agents reasonable access to such Real Property and specifically
grant the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a license to undertake such an assessment at any reasonable time upon reasonable
notice to the Administrative Borrower, all at the sole expense of the Borrowers; or (b) copies of the reports of the United States

Information. Promptly, from time to time, such other information regarding the operations, business affairs and financial condition
of any Company, or compliance with the terms of any Loan Document, or the environmental
condition of any Vessel, Chartered Vessel or Real Property, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may
reasonably request. Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or
to maintain copies of the documents referred to in this Section 5.01, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor
compliance by any Loan Party with any such request for delivery, and each Lender shall be solely responsible for requesting delivery
(from the Administrative Agent) of or maintaining its copies of such documents:


 


Each Borrower and each Lender
acknowledge that certain of the Lenders may be Public Lenders and, if documents or notices required to be delivered pursuant to
this Section 5.01 or otherwise are being distributed through a Platform, any document or notice that the Administrative
Borrower has indicated contains Material Non-Public Information shall not be posted on that portion of the Platform designated
for such Public Lenders. Holdings and the Administrative Borrower agree to clearly designate all information provided to the Administrative
Agent by or on behalf of the Administrative Borrower which is suitable to make available to Public Lenders. If Holdings or the
Administrative Borrower has not indicated whether a document or notice delivered pursuant to this Section 5.01 contains
Material Non-Public Information, the Administrative Agent reserves the right to post such document or notice solely on that portion
of the Platform designated for Lenders who wish to receive Material Non-Public Information with respect to Holdings, the Administrative
Borrower, their respective Subsidiaries and their respective securities.

with respect to any of the other Transactions;

of Environmental Law, or knowledge by any Company that there
exists a condition that has resulted, or would reasonably be expected to result, in an Environmental Claim or a violation of or
liability under, any Environmental Law, except for Environmental Claims, violations, conditions and liabilities the consequence
of which would not be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and


 


(f)          (i)

Restricted Party that is an owner or charterer of any Vessel or Chartered Vessel will take any action that is reasonably likely
to be the basis for termination, revocation or denial of any material insurance coverage required to be maintained under the Loan
Documents in respect of any Vessel or Chartered Vessel or that could reasonably be the basis for a defense to any material claim
under any insurance policy maintained in respect of the Vessels and Chartered Vessels, and the Restricted Parties shall otherwise
comply in all material respects with all insurance policies in respect of the Vessels and Chartered Vessels. At no time on or after
the Closing Date shall Holdings or any Unrestricted Subsidiary of Holdings that is not a Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower
directly own or charter any Vessel or Chartered Vessel.

when due all material Taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in
respect of its property, before the same shall become delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful material claims for labor,

properties or any part thereof; provided, that such payment and discharge shall not be required with respect to any such
Tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim so long as (i) the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate
proceedings timely instituted and diligently conducted and the applicable Company shall have set aside on its books adequate reserves

Administrative Agent thereof.


 


(d)          Pay,
perform and observe all of the terms and provisions of its Indebtedness and other contractual obligations promptly and in accordance

Requirements, including the applicable provisions of ERISA, those relating to any Non-U.S. Plan and the Code, with respect to all

of the Loan Parties, under Section 5.13.


 


(b)          Within
60 days after the close of each fiscal quarter of the Administrative Borrower (or within 120 days after the close of the fourth

Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at which conference call shall be reviewed the financial results of the previous fiscal
quarter and the year-to-date financial condition of the Companies and the budgets presented for the current fiscal year of the

grant to the Collateral Agent (and in any event within 90 days of the acquisition thereof unless extended by the Administrative
Agent in its reasonable discretion) a Mortgage on each Real Property owned in fee by such Borrower or Guarantor as is acquired
by such Borrower or Guarantor after the Closing Date and that, together with any improvements thereon, individually has a Fair
Market Value in excess of $10,000,000 as additional security for the Secured Obligations (unless the subject property constitutes
Excluded Collateral). Such Mortgages shall constitute valid and enforceable (except as such enforceability may be subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, regardless
of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) perfected First Priority Liens subject only to Permitted Liens. The
Mortgages or instruments related thereto shall be duly recorded or filed by the Administrative Agent in such manner and in such
places as are required by applicable Legal Requirements to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral
Agent required to be granted pursuant to the Mortgages and all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall
be paid in full. Such Borrower or Guarantor shall otherwise take such actions and execute and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent
such documents as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall reasonably require to confirm the validity, enforceability,

title insurance company to remove the standard survey exceptions from the Mortgage Policy and issue the title endorsements reasonably

Property and execute and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent such insurance certificates and other documentation (including
with respect to title, flood certifications and evidence of flood insurance), in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.


 


(e)          If,
at any time, either (x) an Excluded Subsidiary no longer constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to the definition thereof
or (y) the aggregate total assets or total revenues of one or more Immaterial Subsidiaries exceeds the thresholds set forth in
the definition thereof, cause such Excluded Subsidiary (in the case of preceding clause (x)) or one or more Excluded Subsidiaries
selected by the Administrative Borrower to the extent not otherwise an Excluded Subsidiary (other than by virtue solely of clause
(b) of the definition thereof) (in the case of preceding clause (y)) to take the actions specified above in this Section 5.10
on the basis that each such Excluded Subsidiary ceased to be an Excluded Subsidiary hereunder, in each case to the extent that
such Excluded Subsidiary is a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower; provided, however,
in the case of preceding clause (y), such actions shall only be required to the extent that, after giving effect to such actions,
the aggregate total assets and total revenues of all then remaining Immaterial Subsidiaries do not exceed the thresholds set forth
in the second sentence of the definition thereof.


 


(f)          Promptly
after, and in any event within 45 days (as such date may be extended by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) of, (i)

any person that owns a vessel (other than a vessel that would be an Excluded Vessel) becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder
after the Closing Date or (iii) any Excluded Vessel of a Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to be an Excluded Vessel, grant
to the Mortgage Trustee a security interest in and Collateral Vessel Mortgage on such Vessel (which
shall be registered in an Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction).  Such Collateral Vessel Mortgage shall be granted pursuant
to documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent and the Mortgage Trustee and shall satisfy
the provisions of the Vessel Collateral Requirements and such Collateral Vessel Mortgage shall constitute a valid and enforceable
perfected First Priority Lien subject only to Permitted Collateral Vessel Liens related thereto.

or confirmatory of the Security Documents or otherwise deemed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent reasonably necessary
or desirable for the continued validity, enforceability, perfection and priority of the Liens on the Collateral intended to be
covered by the Security Documents, subject to no other Liens except Permitted Liens (or, in the case of Collateral Vessels, Permitted
Collateral Vessel Liens), or obtain any consents or waivers as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith and (ii)
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, execute, if required, and file, or cause to be filed, such financing or continuation
statements under the UCC, or amendments thereto, such amendments or supplements to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages (including any
amendments required to maintain the Liens granted by such Collateral Vessel Mortgages), and such other instruments or notices,
as may be reasonably necessary, or that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably require (subject to any
limitations that may be set forth in the Security Documents), to protect and preserve the Liens granted or purported to be granted
by the Security Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Intellectual Property, the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors
shall only be required to file and record short-form Intellectual Property security agreements with respect to any material registered
United States trademarks and United States patents, United States trademark and patent applications and United States registered
copyrights included in the Intellectual Property Collateral in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or in the United States
Copyright Office, as applicable (it being understood, without limiting the foregoing, that the Borrowers and Subsidiary Guarantors
shall not be obligated to take any actions to perfect any Liens in the Collateral that is Intellectual Property arising, protected
or otherwise existing under the laws of any jurisdiction outside of the United States).


 


(b)          If
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders determine that they are required by any Legal Requirements
to have appraisals prepared in respect of the Real Property of any Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor constituting Collateral, the
Borrowers and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall arrange for the Administrative Agent (at such Loan Parties’ expense) to obtain
appraisals that satisfy the applicable requirements of the Real Estate Appraisal Reform Amendments of FIRREA and are otherwise
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


 


(c)          At
the reasonable written request of any counterparty to a Bank Product Agreement entered into after the Closing Date, the applicable
Loan Party shall promptly execute an amendment to each Collateral Vessel Mortgage confirming that the obligations under such Bank
Product Agreement are Secured Obligations under each Collateral Vessel Mortgage, and cause the same to be promptly and duly recorded,
and such amendment shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

made under the UCC or otherwise that are required (x) for the Collateral Agent to maintain the validity, enforceability, perfection
and priority of the security interest of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Collateral, if applicable,
and (y) in the case of a Collateral Vessel, to ensure that the Vessel Collateral Requirements remain satisfied with respect to
such Collateral Vessel. Each Loan Party shall promptly provide the Administrative Agent with certified Organizational Documents
reflecting any of the changes described in the first sentence of this Section 5.12.

and the Administrative Agent may obtain at the Borrowers’ expense in any 12 month period (including in respect of the period
prior to the delivery of such Compliance Certificate in respect of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2017).


 


None of the Collateral Agent,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have any duty to any Loan Party to make any appraisal, nor to share any results
of any such appraisal or report with any Loan Party. Each of the Loan Parties acknowledges that all appraisals and reports described

Party in respect of any account of an account debtor of any Restricted Party shall upon receipt be deposited into a Specified Account.
At no time shall any Restricted Party (x) instruct any account debtor of such Restricted Party to remit any payments to a Deposit
Account or Securities Account of Holdings and, to the extent that any such payments are received in a Deposit Account or Securities
Account of Holdings, Holdings shall transfer such amounts within five Business Days to a Specified Account of the Administrative
Borrower or (y) deposit any amounts received by any Restricted Party in respect of any account of an account debtor of any Restricted
Party into a Deposit Account or Securities Account of Holdings.


 


(b)          In
the event that (i) any Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Deposit Account Bank or Securities Intermediary at a financial
institution at which a Controlled Account is open, in either case shall terminate a Deposit Account Control Agreement or a Securities
Account Control Agreement for any reason or (ii) the Collateral Agent shall demand such termination as a result of the Deposit
Account Bank or the Securities Intermediary at which a Controlled Account is open to fail to comply with the applicable Security
Document or this Section 5.14, the applicable Loan Party shall notify all of its obligors that were making payments to such
terminated Controlled Account, to make all future payments to another Controlled Account of the Administrative Borrower or a Subsidiary
Guarantor in which a Deposit Account Control Agreement or Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect.


 


(c)          The
parties hereto hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that the implementation of the cash management arrangements contemplated herein
is a contractual right provided to the Agents and the Lenders hereunder in order for the Agents and the Lenders to manage and monitor
their collateral position and not a proceeding for enforcement or recovery of a claim, or pursuant to, or an enforcement of, any
security or remedies whatsoever, that the cash management arrangements contemplated herein are critical to the structure of the
lending arrangements contemplated herein, that the Lenders are relying on the Loan Parties’ acknowledgement, confirmation
and agreement with respect to such cash management arrangements in making accommodations of credit available to the Borrowers.

case of a Chartered Vessel) in order that such Vessel or Chartered Vessel shall continue to be registered pursuant to the laws
of such Acceptable Flag Jurisdiction or flag, as appropriate and (ii) not do or allow to be done anything whereby such registration

affecting class would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or result in any suspensions, discontinuances
or withdrawal of class.


 


(d)          Each
Restricted Party which owns, charters by demise or operates a Vessel or Chartered Vessel will submit such Vessel or Chartered Vessel

Collateral Vessel Liens) enforceable against, such Vessel or Chartered Vessel other than any of the foregoing (i) being contested
in good faith and diligently by appropriate proceedings, and, in the event of arrest of any Vessel or Chartered Vessel pursuant
to legal process, or in the event of its detention in exercise or purported exercise of any such Lien or claim as aforesaid, procure,
if possible, the release of such Vessel or Chartered Vessel from such arrest or detention forthwith upon receiving notice thereof
by providing bail or otherwise as the circumstances may require, (ii) Liens incurred or placed on Chartered Vessels by their respective
owners to the extent permitted by the terms of the respective charter (“Permitted Chartered Vessel Liens”),
or (iii) which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


(f)          Each
Restricted Party which owns, charters by demise or operates a Vessel or Chartered Vessel will maintain a valid Certificate of Financial
Responsibility (Oil Pollution) issued by the United States Coast Guard pursuant to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act to the
extent that such certificate may be required by applicable Legal Requirements for any Vessel or Chartered Vessel and such other
similar certificates as may be required in the course of the operations of any Vessel or Chartered Vessel pursuant to the International
Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage of 1969, or other applicable Legal Requirements (including the ISM Code
and the ISPS Code).

action as the Mortgage Trustee may reasonably request to ensure the Mortgage Trustee has a valid and perfected preferred mortgage
Lien thereon and (y) in the case of preceding clauses (i) and (ii) as they relate to a Collateral Vessel, the Administrative Agent
shall (at the Borrowers’ or Subsidiary Guarantors’ expense and reasonable request) cooperate with the Administrative
Borrower to record any filings that are required to ensure that the Vessel Collateral Requirements are satisfied.


 


(h)          Each
Restricted Party which enters into a Permitted Charter of a Collateral Vessel for an initial or extended period (in each case,
including extension options) in excess of 24 months shall cause to be included in such Permitted Charter or extension thereof a
provision confirming the priority of any preferred ship mortgages covering such Collateral Vessel over the rights of the charterer
under such Permitted Charter, and upon such Restricted Party’s request, the Mortgage Trustee shall enter into, with such
charterer, a quiet enjoyment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit O together with such additional terms reasonably
requested by such charterer, subject to the Mortgage Trustee’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(other than the Co-Borrower) to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary or designate (or re-designate, as the case may be) any Unrestricted
Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower; provided that (i) immediately before and after such
designation (or re-designation), no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) in the case of the designation of a Subsidiary
as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (x) the Subsidiary to be so designated does not (directly, or indirectly, through its Subsidiaries)
at such time own any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or own or hold any Lien on any property of, Holdings, the Administrative
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and (y) the Investment resulting from the designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary as described in the immediately succeeding sentence is permitted by Sections 6.04(n) and/or (o),
(iii) in the case of the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, before and after giving effect to
such designation, the total assets of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries (excluding intercompany accounts with other Unrestricted Subsidiaries
to be so designated at such time and investments in Subsidiaries of such Unrestricted Subsidiaries to be so designated at such

Restricted Subsidiaries’ Investment therein.  The designation (or re-designation, as the case may be) of any Unrestricted
Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower shall constitute, at the time of designation (or re-designation,
as the case may be), the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any Unrestricted Subsidiary that has been re-designated a Restricted Subsidiary may not be subsequently re-designated
as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Borrower to the Administrative Agent (i) attaching a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Administrative

as sureties, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment and performance in full when
due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of,
premium (if any) and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and
the Notes, if any, held by each Lender of, the Borrowers, and all other Secured Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured
Parties by any Loan Party in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively
called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if the Borrowers
or other Guarantors shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of
any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due
(whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.


 




    	 	152	 



     


    

 


Section 7.02         Obligations
Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 7.01 shall constitute a
guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements,
are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred
to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, and irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge
or defense of a surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations). Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability
of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described
above:


 


(a)          at
any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;


 


(b)          any
of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement
or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;


 


(c)          the
maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any
respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended
or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released
or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;


 


(d)          any
Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Secured Party as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall
fail to be valid, perfected or to have the priority required under the Loan Documents; or


 


(e)          the
release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.09.


 


The Guarantors hereby expressly
waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party
exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrowers or any Guarantor under this Agreement or the Notes, if any,
or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or
security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver,
termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee
or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created,
contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrowers and the Secured Parties shall likewise
be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as
a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to any right of offset
with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and
liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other
person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrowers or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect
of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with
respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its
terms upon the Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and
their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be
no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

Section 7.03         Reinstatement.
The obligations of the Guarantors under this Article VII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for
any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded
or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy
or reorganization or otherwise.


 


Section 7.04         Subrogation;
Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction
in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement
it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by
it of its guarantee in Section 7.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against any of the Borrowers or any other Guarantor
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness or other Obligation
of any Loan Party to a Guarantor shall be subordinated to such Loan Party’s Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in
the Intercompany Subordination Agreement.


 


Section 7.05         Remedies.
The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrowers under
this Agreement and other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article VIII (and
shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article VIII) for purposes
of Section 7.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations
from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations
being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by any Borrower) shall
forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01.


 


Section 7.06         Instrument
for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article
VII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option,
in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action
under New York CPLR Section 3213.


 


Section 7.07         Continuing
Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article VII is a continuing guarantee of payment and
performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.


 


Section 7.08         General
Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate
limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or other Legal Requirement affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 7.01
would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other
creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the
contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other person,
be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the rights of subrogation and contribution established
in Sections 7.04 and 7.10, respectively) that is valid and enforceable, not void or voidable and not subordinated
to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 7.09         Release
of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, (i) all
of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred or (ii) any Subsidiary Guarantor is designated
as an Unrestricted Subsidiary (in any such case, a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a person or persons (other than
any Loan Party), such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer or designation, be released from
its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 11.03) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral
owned by it pursuant to any Security Document and, in the case of the sale of all of the Equity Interests of the Transferred Guarantor,
the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents shall be released, and so long as
the Administrative Borrower shall have previously provided the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent such certifications
or documents as the Collateral Agent and/or the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, the Collateral Agent shall take,
and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent to take, such actions as are necessary to effect each release
described in this Section 7.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents.


 


Section 7.10         Right
of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have
paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution
from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s
right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 7.04. The provisions of this Section 7.10
shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to any Secured Party, and each Guarantor shall remain
liable to the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.


 


Section 7.11         Keepwell.
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such
funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under Section
7.01 in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be
liable under this Section 7.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its
obligations under this Section 7.11, or otherwise under Section 7.01, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent
conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this
Section 7.11 shall remain in full force and effect until a discharge of Guaranteed Obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor
intends that this Section 7.11 constitute, and this Section 7.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell,
support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the
Commodity Exchange Act.

    	 	157	 



     


    

 


(m)          there
shall have occurred a Change in Control;


 


then, and in every such event
(other than an event with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the
continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders (or, (x) if a Revolver Covenant
Event of Default occurs and is continuing and/or (y) if any other Event of Default has continued for a period of 180 days and (in
the case of this clause (y)) the Required Lenders have not exercised their rights and remedies hereunder or under the Security
Documents (and shall not be diligently pursuing such rights and remedies) at such time, in either case, at the request of the Majority
Revolving Lenders only, and in each such case, without limiting Section 8.01(b), only with respect to the Revolving Facilities,
any Letters of Credit and other Revolving Obligations) shall, by notice to the Administrative Borrower, take any or all of the
following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments; (ii) declare the Obligations then outstanding
to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Obligations so declared to be due and payable,
together with accrued interest thereon, any fees or repayment premiums applicable under Section 2.10(g), and any unpaid
accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith
due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived
by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary notwithstanding; and
(iii) exercise (and/or direct the Collateral Agent to exercise) any and all of its (or the Collateral Agent’s) other rights
and remedies under applicable Legal Requirements, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; and in any event with respect to
any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Obligations
then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon, any fees or repayment premiums applicable under Section 2.10(g),
and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder and under any other Loan Document,
shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document or otherwise to the contrary
notwithstanding.


 


In addition, without limiting
the foregoing, in the event of a foreclosure (or other similar exercise of remedies) by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral
pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party
may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and, in addition, the Collateral Agent
or the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of all of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or
their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose
of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale
or other disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable
by Collateral Agent at such sale.


 


Section
8.02         Rescission. If at any time
after termination of the Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Loan Parties shall pay all arrears of interest
and Fees and all payments on account of principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing by them that shall have become
due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and Fees and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest,
at the rates specified herein) and all Defaults (other than non-payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and
payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 11.02, then upon the written consent
of the Required Lenders (which may be given or withheld in their sole discretion) and written notice to the Administrative Borrower,
the termination of the Commitments or the acceleration of the Loans and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled; but such
action shall not affect any subsequent Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding
sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties to a decision that may be made
at the election of the Required Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit any Loan Party and do not give any Loan
Party the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein
are met.

In the event that any such
proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in clauses (a) through (g) of this Section 9.01, the Loan Parties
shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any deficiency.

THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT


 


Section 10.01         Appointment.
(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably designates and appoints (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement,
each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to irrevocably designate and appoint) each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent as an agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank irrevocably
authorizes (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to irrevocably authorize)
each Agent, in such capacity, through its agents or employees, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to such Agent by the
terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
The provisions of this Article X are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Bank Product
Providers, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect
to the Collateral and any rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as
an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency
or trust with or for any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is
not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable
law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative
relationship between independent contracting parties.


 


(b)          Each
Lender irrevocably appoints each other Lender, and the Collateral Agent irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent, as its agent
and bailee for the purpose of perfecting Liens (whether pursuant to Section 8-301(a)(2) of the UCC or otherwise), for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, in assets in which, in accordance with the UCC or any other applicable Legal Requirement, a security interest
can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of
any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly following the Collateral Agent’s
request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with
the Collateral Agent’s instructions. The Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement,
each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge and authorize) that the Collateral Agent may act as the collateral agent
for the Secured Parties.


 


Section 10.02         Agent
in Its Individual Capacity. Each person serving as an 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 an Agent, and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,
include the person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such person and its Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to, act as financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business
with, any Company or any Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without duty to account therefor to the Lenders
or the Issuing Banks.


 




    	 	160	 



     


    

 


Section 10.03         Exculpatory
Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in
the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied
duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary
action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents
that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as
shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01 or 11.02); provided, that no Agent
shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability, if
the Agent is not indemnified to its satisfaction, or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements including,
for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Insolvency Law or that may effect
a foreclosure, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender under any Insolvency Law, and (c) except as expressly
set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to any Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any
of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it 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 any Agent shall
believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.01 or 11.02) or in the
absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof describing such
Default is given to such Agent by any Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any 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 in any Loan Document
or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan
Document. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent may from
time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other collateral
related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Loan Documents and the notification
to the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and
that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Loan
Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider. Neither any Agent nor any of
its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent
under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents.


 


Section 10.04         Reliance
by Agent. Each 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 a proper person. Each 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, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to
the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such
Issuing Bank unless each Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to
the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel
for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other advisors 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 advisors.


 




    	 	161	 



     


    

 


Section 10.05         Delegation
of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one
or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of the preceding
paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply, without
limiting the foregoing to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for
herein as well as activities as Agent. The Agents shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except
to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such Agent acted with
gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.


 


Section 10.06         Successor
Agent. Each Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 10 days’ prior notice to
the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Borrower and without notice to the Bank Product Providers. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, so long as no Event of
Default shall have then occurred and be continuing, to appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. If no successor shall
have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after the retiring Agent
gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor
Agent, which successor shall be a commercial banking institution or other finance or trust company organized under the laws of
the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case,
having combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided, that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a
commercial banking institution or other finance or trust company that is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the
qualifications set forth above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the retiring
(or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, and the Lenders shall assume and
perform all of the duties of the Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
Agent.


 


Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor
unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions
of this Article X, Section 11.03 and Sections 11.08 to 11.10 shall continue in effect for the benefit
of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by
any of them while it was acting as Agent.


 




    	 	162	 



     


    

 


Section 10.07         Non-Reliance
on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender, Bank Product Provider and Issuing Bank acknowledges
that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based
on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, conducted its own independent investigation of the financial condition
and affairs of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.
Each Lender further represents and warrants that it has reviewed each document made available to it on the Platform in connection
with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof (including
any such terms and conditions set forth, or otherwise maintained, on the Platform with respect thereto). Each Lender (and each
Bank Product Provider) and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent
or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 


Section 10.08         Name
Agents. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the persons named
as Co-Managers on the cover page of this Agreement hold their titles in name only, and that such titles confer no additional rights
or obligations relative to those conferred on any Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder.


 


Section 10.09         Indemnification.
The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrowers or the Guarantors and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers or the Guarantors to do so),
ratably according to their respective outstanding Loans and Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought
under this Section 10.09 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have been terminated
and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such outstanding Loans and Commitments as in effect immediately
prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims,
suits, judgments, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever
that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by
or asserted against such Agent or Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, the Loans, this Agreement,
any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the Transactions or any of the
other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent or Related Person under or in connection
with any of the foregoing (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY
OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY AGENT OR RELATED PERSON); provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion
of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, judgments, litigations, investigations,
inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted solely and directly from such Agent’s or Related Person’s, as the
case may be, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 10.09 shall survive the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and the termination of the Commitments.


 


Section 10.10         Withholding
Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable Legal Requirements, the Administrative Agent
may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If any payment has been made
to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative
Agent has paid over the applicable withholding Tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the
Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold
Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed
or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from,
or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that
a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such
Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent
as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal
costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

Section 10.11         Lender’s
Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgements (a)  Each Lender represents and warrants
that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Companies in
connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness
of the Companies. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on
a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any
credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time
or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information
provided to the Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that no Agent or Related Person of any Agent has made any
representation or warranty to it. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by an Agent to
the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility (either express or implied) to provide any Lender
or any Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, including
the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate
of a Loan Party, that may come in to the possession of an Agent or any of its Related Persons.


 


(b)          Each
Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, shall be deemed to have acknowledged
receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the
Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Closing Date.


 


Section 10.12         Security
Documents and Guarantees.


 


(a)          Each
Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the
benefit of the Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Guarantees, the
Collateral and the Loan Documents; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any
fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Bank Product
Obligations with respect to any Bank Product Agreement. Subject to Section 11.02, without further written consent or authorization
from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may execute any documents or instruments
necessary to (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any
item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which the Required Lenders (or such other
Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 8.01 or 11.02) have otherwise consented or (ii) release
any Guarantor from the Guarantees pursuant to Section 7.09 or with respect to which the Required Lenders (or such other
Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 8.01 or 11.02) have otherwise consented.


 




    	 	164	 



     


    

 


(b)          Anything
contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, each Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the
Collateral or to enforce the Guarantees, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under
any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit
of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents
may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and
(ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a
public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the
Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k),
Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral
at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not
any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required
Lenders (or the Majority Revolving Lenders, as the case may be), for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of
the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations
as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.


 


(c)          (i)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as
applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any Affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any
Bank Product Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral subject to any
disposition permitted by the Loan Documents, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any person subject
to such disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents.


 


(ii)         Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Secured Obligations (other than Secured Obligations
in respect of any Bank Product Agreement and contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim or demand has been made)
have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and all Letters of Credit have terminated or expired (or have
been Cash Collateralized), upon request of the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall
(without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Bank Product Agreement)
take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations
provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Secured Obligations in respect
of Bank Product Agreements. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee
obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby
shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization
of any Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar
officer for, the Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made.


 


(d)          The
Agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence,
value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon,
or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lenders
for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.


 


Section 10.13         Administrative
Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any Insolvency
Proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan 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 any Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:


 




    	 	165	 



     


    

 


(a)          to
file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies
with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;


 


(b)          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 Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections
2.03 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and


 


(c)          to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;


 


and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each
Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making
of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement out of the
estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be
paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive
in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.


 


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 or to authorize
the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.


 


Section 10.14         Ship
Mortgage Trust. The Mortgage Trustee agrees and declares, and each of the other Secured Parties
acknowledges, that, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.14, the Mortgage Trustee holds the Trust Property
in trust for the Secured Parties absolutely. Each of the other Secured Parties agrees that the obligations, rights and benefits
vested in the Mortgage Trustee shall be performed and exercised in accordance with this Section 10.14. For the avoidance
of doubt, the Mortgage Trustee shall have the benefit of all of the provisions of this Agreement (including exculpatory and indemnification
provisions) benefiting it in its capacity as Collateral Agent for the Secured Parties. In addition, the Mortgage Trustee and any
attorney, agent or delegate of the Mortgage Trustee may indemnify itself or himself out of the Trust Property against all liabilities,
costs, fees, damages, charges, losses and expenses sustained or incurred by it or him in relation to the taking or holding of any
of the Trust Property or in connection with the exercise or purported exercise of the rights, trusts, powers and discretions vested
in the Mortgage Trustee or any other such person by or pursuant to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages or in respect of anything else
done or omitted to be done in any way relating to the Collateral Vessel Mortgages.

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


 


(b)          Each
Loan Party hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it
is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices,
requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such
communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, Borrowing or other extension of credit (including

due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement or (iv)

e-mail address(es) provided to the Administrative Borrower by the Administrative Agent from time to time or in such other form,
including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue
to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. Nothing in this Section
11.01 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication
pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or as any such Agent shall require.


 


(c)          To
the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing from time to time, the Administrative Agent agrees that receipt
of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery
of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents.


 




    	 	168	 



     


    

 


(d)          Each
Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the other Agents, the Lenders
or the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on a Platform. The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided
“as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications,
or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic
Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for
a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent
in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall any Agent have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender
or any other person for damages of any kind, whether or not based on strict liability and including direct or indirect, special,
incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or related to any
Loan Party’s or any Agent’s transmissions of Communications through the Internet (including the Platform). Notices
or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient
at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (a) of notification that such notice or communication is available and
identifying the website address therefor. Each Loan Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium
is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes
the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence
of the Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.


 


(e)          The
Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address shall constitute
effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that
receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform
shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s
e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to
such e-mail address. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other
communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.


 


(f)          Each
Loan Party, each Lender and each Agent agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, store any Approved
Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary document retention procedures
and policies.


 


(g)          Each
Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private
Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public
Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United
States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public
Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Material Non-Public Information with respect to the Administrative
Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their securities for purposes of United States federal or state securities laws. In the event that
any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public
Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) neither any Borrower nor the
Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has
obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 11.02         Waivers;
Amendment. (a)  No failure or delay by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising
any right or power 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 each Agent, each Issuing
Bank 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 any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom
shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 11.02(b), and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether
any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on
any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.


 


(b)          Subject
to Sections 2.16(c), 11.02(d) and 11.02(e), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision
hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement
or agreements in writing entered into by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders (other than with respect to any amendment or
waiver contemplated in clause (b)(xiv) below, which shall only require the consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders) or, in the
case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent (in the case of any Security Document) and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case
with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided, that no such agreement shall:


 


(i)          increase
or extend the expiry date of any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that
no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any condition precedent, covenant or Default (or any
definition used, respectively, therein) shall constitute an increase in or an extension of the expiry date of any Commitment of
any Lender for purposes of this clause (i));


 


(ii)         reduce
the principal amount or premium, if any, of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than waiver
of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or reduce any Fees payable hereunder, or change the
form or currency of payment of any Obligation, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (including,
if directly affected, each Issuing Bank);


 


(iii)        postpone
or extend the maturity of any Loan, the required date of payment of any Reimbursement Obligation or any scheduled date of payment
of or the installment otherwise due on the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09, or any date for the payment
of any interest, premium or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other
than a waiver of any increase in the rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or postpone the scheduled date of expiration
of any Commitment or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date,
without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (including, if directly affected, each Issuing Bank);


 


(iv)        change
Section 11.04(b) in a manner which further restricts assignments thereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby (provided that any amendment that clarifies any ambiguity or defect in the definition or use of Disqualified
Institutions shall require only the consent of the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties);


 


(v)         change
Section 2.14(b) or (c) or Section 9.01 in a manner that would alter the order of or the pro rata sharing of
payments or setoffs required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;


 




    	 	170	 



     


    

 


(vi)        change
the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Majority Revolving Lenders”, or any
other provision of any Loan Document (including this Section 11.02) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders
of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder,
without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be);


 


(vii)       release
all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their respective Guarantees (except as expressly provided in Article VII),
or limit their liability in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender; 


 


(viii)      except
as expressly permitted in this Agreement or any Security Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the
Liens of the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Secured Obligations entitled to the Liens of the Security
Documents (except in connection with securing additional Secured Obligations equally and ratably with the other Secured Obligations),
in each case without the written consent of each Lender;


 


(ix)         change
the order of application of prepayments among Term Loans and Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Obligations) under Section 2.10(d)
or change the application of prepayments of Term Loans set forth in Section 2.10(d) in each case without the consent
of the Majority Revolving Lenders and Term Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Term
Loans; 


 


(x)          without
the written consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders, amend, modify or waive (w) the provisions of Section 2.10(h)
or Article IX, in each case, in a manner adversely affecting the priority status of the Revolving Obligations, (x) the provisions
of Section 11.04(k) or 11.23, (y) any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to the making
of any Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan or the issuance of any Letter of Credit or (z) alter the
rights or remedies of the Majority Revolving Lenders arising pursuant to Article VIII as a result of the failure of the
Required Lenders to exercise their rights and remedies within the time period set forth therein;


 


(xi)         without
the written consent of the Term Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans,
amend or modify this Agreement to provide for aggregate Revolving Commitments under all Classes to exceed $75,000,000; 


 


(xii)        subordinate
the Obligations under the Loan Documents to any other Indebtedness without the written consent of each Lender; 


 


(xiii)       modify
the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.04(h) without the written consent of such SPC;
or


 


(xiv)      (w)
amend or otherwise modify Section 6.06(b)(ii)(B), (x) amend or otherwise modify Section 6.10(b) (or for the purposes
of determining compliance with Section 6.10(b), any defined terms used therein), or (y) waive or consent to any Default
resulting from a breach of either Section 6.06(b)(ii)(B) or Section 6.10(b) or (z) alter the rights or remedies of
the Majority Revolving Lenders arising pursuant to Article VIII as a result of a breach of either Section 6.06(b)(ii)(b)
or Section 6.10(b), in each case, without the written consent of the Majority Revolving Lenders; provided, however, that
the amendments, modifications, waivers and consents described in this clause (xiv) shall not require the consent of any Lenders
other than the Majority Revolving Lenders;


 




    	 	171	 



     


    

 


provided, further
that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent,
such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may
be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if
their rights or obligations are affected thereby, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender) if (1) by the
terms of such agreement the Commitments of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon
the effectiveness of such amendment, (2) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives
payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing
to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement, and (3) Section 2.16(b) is complied with.


 


(c)          Without
the consent of any other person, the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent
may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment
or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection,
expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, or as required by applicable Legal Requirements to give effect to, or protect any security interest for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or assets so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Legal
Requirements.


 


(d)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if, following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower shall have agreed in their
sole and absolute discretion that there is an ambiguity, inconsistency, manifest error or any error or omission of a technical
or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Administrative
Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent
of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business
Days following receipt of notice thereof (it being understood that the Administrative Agent has no obligation to agree to any such
amendment).


 


(e)          Further,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended to effect (x) any amendment
as, and to the extent, provided in the definition of “Additional Permitted Unsecured Debt” contained herein and (y)
any Extension Amendment, any Corrective Extension Amendment, any Incremental Loan Amendment or any Refinancing Amendment as, and
to the extent, provided in Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 2.23.

(b)          The
Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Agents, each Lender, each Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each
Related Person of each of the foregoing (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold
each Indemnitee harmless from, all reasonable and documented expenses (including reasonable and documented fees, disbursements
and other charges of one counsel for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, one maritime counsel, local and foreign counsel in each

and foreign counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction) for such affected Indemnitee))) and any and all claims, damages, losses and
liabilities, fees, fines, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and related expenses, including reasonable Advisors fees, charges
and disbursements (collectively, “Claims”), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee, directly or indirectly,

Loan Documents, the Engagement Letter or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or the performance by the parties thereto
of their respective obligations thereunder, (ii) any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters

Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits by any of the Companies or any of their businesses, operations, Real Property, Vessels,
Chartered Vessels and other properties, (vii) the imposition of any environmental Lien encumbering Real Property or Vessels or
Chartered Vessels owned, leased or operated by any Company, (viii) the consummation of the Transactions (including the syndication

whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party or any of their respective
subsidiaries, affiliates or shareholders or otherwise, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided,
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or related expenses or other Claims are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to
have resulted primarily from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, (ii)
a material breach by such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons of any of its or their respective obligations under the Loan
Documents or (iii) any claims brought by an Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than against the Administrative Agent
or any other Agent in its capacity as such) not arising out of any act or omission by any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.


 




    	 	173	 



     


    

 


(c)          The
Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, that, without the prior written consent of the Agents and any affected Lender (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Loan Parties will not enter into any settlement of a Claim in respect of the subject
matter of Section 11.03(b) and asserted against an Indemnitee unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional
release from the party bringing such Claim of all Indemnitees and does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault,
culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee.


 


(d)          The
provisions of this Section 11.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the
term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the
Loans and any other Secured Obligations, the release of any Guarantor or of all or any portion of the Collateral, the expiration
of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, 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 Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender.
All amounts due under this Section 11.03 shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement,
indemnification or other amount requested.


 


(e)          To
the extent that the Loan Parties fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Agents, the Issuing Banks
or the Swingline Lender under clause (a) or (b) of this Section 11.03 in accordance with Section 10.03, each Lender
severally agrees to pay to the Agents, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, 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
(such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred
or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided, that the unreimbursed Claim was incurred by or asserted against
any of the Agents, the Issuing Banks, or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes of this clause (e),
a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Total Revolving
Exposure, the principal amount of outstanding Term Loans and unused Term Commitments at the time.


 




    	 	174	 



     


    

 


(f)          To
the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives,
any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, exemplary, consequential or punitive
damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of,
in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions,
any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, that such waiver of special, punitive, indirect
or consequential damages shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties to the extent such special, punitive,
indirect or consequential damages are included in any third party claim with respect to which the applicable Indemnitee is entitled
to indemnification under this Section 11.03. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended
recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.


 


(g)          All
amounts due under this Section 11.03 shall be payable no later than 10 Business Days after written demand (accompanied by
an invoice or other reasonable documentation) therefor; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund
an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final and non-appealable judicial determination of
a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant
to this Section 11.03.


 


Section 11.04         Successors
and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate or designee of any
Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that the Loan Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their
respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent,
the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lender and each Lender, which consent may be withheld in their respective sole discretion (and
any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void ab initio). Nothing in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate or designee of any Issuing Bank that
issues any Letter of Credit), Participants to the extent expressly provided in clause (e) of this Section 11.04 and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 


(b)          Any
Lender shall have the right at any time to assign to one or more assignees (other than any Company or
any Affiliate thereof (except as provided in Section 2.22) or a natural person) all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that:


 


(i)          except
in the case of (A) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (B) any assignment made in connection
with the primary syndication by the Arrangers of the Commitments and the Loans or (C) an assignment of the entire remaining amount
of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent) shall not be less than (x) in the case of Term Loans, $1,000,000 (or, in the case of any assignment made in connection with
the primary syndication of the Term Commitments and Term Loans by Jefferies Finance LLC and its Affiliates, $100,000),
and (y) in the case of Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, $2,500,000; provided, however, that concurrent assignments
to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or
to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether
such minimum amounts has been met;


 




    	 	175	 



     


    

 


(ii)         each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement , except that this clause (ii) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment
of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or
Loans;


 


(iii)        the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); provided,
however, in the case of contemporaneous assignments by any Lender to one or more Approved Funds, only a single processing
and recording fee shall be payable for such assignments;


 


(iv)        the
assignee, if it shall not then be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; 


 


(v)         the
assignee shall represent and warrant to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is an Eligible Assignee;
and


 


(vi)        each
of (x) the Administrative Agent, (y) with respect to any assignment of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, the Swingline
Lender and each Issuing Bank, and (z) (except (I) when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (II) in the case of
an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) the Administrative Borrower must give its prior written
consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that (i)
the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written
notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof and (ii) the consent of the Administrative
Agent shall not be required if such assignment is in respect of Term Loans that is made to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any consent of the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender required under
this clause (b) may be withheld by such person in its sole discretion. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
Section 11.04(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, 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 (provided, that any liability of the Borrowers to such assignee under Section 2.12,
2.13 or 2.15 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable thereunder by the Borrowers in
the absence of such assignment, except to the extent any such amounts are attributable to a Change in Law occurring after the date
of such assignment), and 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 of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 11.03.


 




    	 	176	 



     


    

 


(c)          The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Administrative 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 the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof
from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each person
whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative
Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only),
at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.


 


(d)          Upon
its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s
completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation
fee referred to in Section 11.04(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 11.04(b), the
Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register.
No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this
Section 11.04(d). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with the requirements of this Section 11.04 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 Section 11.04(e).


 


(e)          Any
Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of, or notice to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Bank or the Swingline Lender or any other person to sell participations to any person (other than any Company or
any Affiliate thereof or a natural person) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided,
that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment,
modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that
such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) is described
in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the proviso to Section 11.02(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.04(b). To the extent permitted by Legal Requirements,
each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender; provided, that
such Participant agrees in writing to be subject to Section 2.14(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender shall, acting
for this purpose as a “non-fiduciary” agent of the Borrowers, maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation
of the names and addresses of its Participants, and the amount and terms of its participations (the “Participant Register”).
The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender (and the Borrowers, to the extent
that the Participant requests payment from the Borrowers) shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register
as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 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, or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.


 




    	 	177	 



     


    

 


(f)          A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale
of the participation to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower (which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or the greater payment results from a Change in Law after the date the participation
was sold to the Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits
of Section 2.15 unless such Participant agrees to comply with Section 2.15(f) as though it were a Lender (it being
understood that the documentation required in Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender).


 


(g)          Any
Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank,
and this Section 11.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no
such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of any Lender that is a
fund that invests in bank loans or similar extensions of credit, such Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, each Issuing
Bank, the Swingline Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other person, collaterally assign or pledge all or any portion of its
rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and the Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under
this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued,
by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities.


 


(h)          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 Administrative Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender
would otherwise be obligated to make to a 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; provided
further that nothing herein shall make the SPC a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, obligate the Borrowers
or any other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to deal with such SPC directly, obligate the Borrowers or any other Loan Party
in any manner to any greater extent than they were obligated to the Granting Lender, or increase costs or expenses of the Borrowers.
The Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deal solely with, and obtain good discharge from, the Granting
Lender and shall not be required to investigate or otherwise seek the consent or approval of any SPC, including for the approval
of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document. 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 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). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees
(which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the
payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or
join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings
under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section 11.04(h), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Administrative 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 or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent)
providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and
(ii) disclose on a confidential basis any Material Non-Public Information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial
paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.


 




    	 	178	 



     


    

 


(i)          The
words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance
shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same
legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as
the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Legal Requirement, including the Federal Electronic Signatures
in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar laws domestic
or foreign, federal, state, provincial or otherwise, based on or analogous or similar to the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.


 


(j)          Any
assignor Lender of all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and the Loans at the time owing to it) or seller of a participation hereunder shall be entitled to rely conclusively on a representation
of the assignee Lender or Participant in the relevant Assignment and Acceptance or participation agreement, as applicable, that
such assignee or purchaser is not a Disqualified Institution. None of the Agents shall have any responsibility or liability for
monitoring the list or identities of, or enforcing provisions relating to, Disqualified Institutions. Upon request by any Lender
or prospective Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to disclose to such Lender or prospective Lender the identity
of the Disqualified Institutions.


 


(k)          (i)
Without prejudice to the enforcement of any of the
Agents’ or Lenders’ rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, at law or in equity or otherwise, the Revolving Lenders
agree that at any time following (a) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Loan Party, (b) any acceleration
of the Revolving Obligations or (c) each election by the Majority Revolving Lenders to assert any rights or withhold any consent
under or in respect of any provision of Section 11.23 at any time and from time to time, the Revolving Lenders will offer
the Term Lenders, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, the option to purchase the entire aggregate amount of outstanding
Revolving Obligations (including unfunded Revolving Commitments) at the Purchase Price without warranty or representation or recourse
except as provided in Section 11.04(k)(iii), on a pro rata basis among the Revolving Lenders.  The “Purchase
Price” will equal the sum of (1) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations included in the Obligations (including an amount in cash equal to 103% of the undrawn amount of outstanding Letters
of Credit), and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (but excluding any prepayment penalties or
premiums) and (2) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses and other amounts owed to the Revolving Lenders under the Loan Documents
as of the date of purchase.


 




    	 	179	 



     


    

 


(ii)          The
Term Lenders (or any one or more of them) may in their sole and absolute discretion irrevocably accept such offer within 10 Business
Days of the receipt thereof (it being understood that a failure to affirmatively accept such offer within such time frame shall
be deemed to be a rejection of such offer).  If the Term Lenders (or any one or more of them) accept such offer, it shall
be exercised not more than 20 days, nor less than 10 days, after the receipt by the Revolving Lenders of the notice of
election by such Term Lenders, subject to any required approval of any court or other Governmental Authority then in effect, if
any.  Such sale shall be pursuant to documentation mutually acceptable to the Revolving Lenders and such Term Lenders, without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Borrower or any other Loan Party.  If the all of the Term Lenders reject such
offer (or any one or more of them does not so irrevocably accept such offer within the required timeframe), the Revolving Lenders
shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 11.04(k).  Each Revolving Lender will retain all rights

account prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, and interest shall be calculated to and including such Business Day if the amounts
so paid by such Term Lenders to the bank account designated by the Administrative Agent are received in such bank account later

Revolving Lender owns the Revolving Obligations purported to be owned by it free and clear of any Liens (other than participation
interests not prohibited by this Agreement, in which case the Purchase Price will be appropriately adjusted so that the Term Lenders
do not pay amounts represented by participation interests).

of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart
of this Agreement.


 


Section 11.07         Severability.
Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,

of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate
such provision in any other jurisdiction.

to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency)
at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party
against any and all of the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents
held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such
Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights
of each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. None of any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to
marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To
the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank
or any Lender (or to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks), or any Agent,
any Issuing Bank or any Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or
the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential,
set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Insolvency Law or any equitable cause,
then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights
and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments
had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

service on its behalf. Failure by the Process Agent to give notice to the applicable Loan Party, or failure of the applicable Loan
Party, to receive notice of such service of process shall not impair or affect the validity of such service on the Process Agent
or any such Loan Party, or of any judgment based thereon. Each Loan Party covenants and agrees that it shall take any and all reasonable
action, including the execution and filing of any and all documents that may be necessary to continue the designation of the Process

virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, the applicable Bank Product Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed
the Administrative Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Loan Documents; it being understood and agreed that

being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to the Collateral Agent and the
right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In addition, each Bank Product
Provider, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, shall be automatically deemed to have agreed that the Administrative

or proceeds of Collateral, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to any Bank Product
Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation)
to the Administrative Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by the Administrative
Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to
calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Bank Products, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount
due and payable from the relevant Bank Product Provider. In the absence of an updated certification, the Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the relevant Bank Product Provider is the amount last certified to the
Administrative Agent by such Bank Product Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Bank Product Provider
on account thereof). The Borrowers may obtain Bank Products from any Bank Product Provider, although the Borrowers are not required
to do so. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that no Bank Product Provider has committed to provide any Bank Products and that
the providing of Bank Products by any Bank Product Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank Product Provider.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Product
shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder
of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required
(other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents,
including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors.

DOCUMENT SHALL SECURE ANY EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS; AND (III) NO EXCLUDED SWAP OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GUARANTEED PURSUANT TO THE

if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when
converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could
have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate or exchange prevailing
on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

purposes of determining any rate of exchange for this Section 11.21, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable

other liability or obligation of such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries related to or arising from the transactions contemplated

the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Party further agrees that the waivers set forth in this Section 11.22 shall have

of the Bankruptcy Code if the Majority Revolving Lenders have consented to such sale or disposition of such assets.


 


(c)          The
provisions of preceding clause (b) shall not prohibit Term Lenders from agreeing to or supporting a sale or other disposition of
any Collateral free and clear of the Secured Parties’ Liens or other claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code
so long as all outstanding Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) are
paid in full in cash and the Revolving Commitments and all Letters of Credit are terminated (or such Letters of Credit are Cash
Collateralized on terms and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank)
at the time of the consummation of such sale or other disposition unless the Majority Revolving Lenders otherwise agree to such
sale or other disposition.


 


(d)          Each
Term Lender agrees that it will not support or agree to any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization.


 


(e)          Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.14 or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (other than as expressly provided
in Section 2.10(h) and Article IX), after the exercise of remedies (including rights of setoff) provided for in Article
VIII, any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations (whether as a result of a payment under a Guarantee, any realization
on the Collateral, any setoff rights, any distribution or other payment in connection with any insolvency or liquidation proceeding
under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) shall be applied as provided in Article IX, in any such case until the prior payment
in full in cash of all Revolving Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due and payable) and the
termination of all Letters of Credit (or the Cash Collateralization of such Letters of Credit on terms and pursuant to arrangements
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank).  If any Secured Party collects or receives any
amounts on account of the Secured Obligations to which it is not entitled under Article IX , such Secured Party shall hold
the same in trust for the Secured Parties and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the account of
the Secured Parties, to be applied in accordance with this clause (e).


 


(f)          Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.23, (i) this Section 11.23 is intended
to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a)
of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant
to applicable non-bankruptcy law and (ii) it is the intention of the parties hereto that (and to the maximum extent permitted by
law the parties hereto agree that) the Revolving Exposure and Revolving Commitments (and the security therefor) constitute a separate
and distinct class (and separate and distinct claims) from the other Secured Obligations (and security therefor).


 


Section
11.24         Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any
such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document,
to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority
and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 




    	 	188	 



     


    

 


(a)          the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which
may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and


 


(b)          the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


 


(i)          a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 


(ii)         a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or
other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document; or


 


(iii)        the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution
Authority.

OF

AUCTION PROCEDURES


 


This
outline is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the Auction Procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and
conditions of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2017 (as amended, amended and restated, modified,
supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among
INTERNATIONAL SEAWAYS, INC., a Marshall Islands corporation (“Holdings”), INTERNATIONAL SEAWAYS OPERATING
CORPORATION, a Marshall Islands corporation (the “Administrative Borrower”), OIN Delaware LLC, a Delaware limited
liability company, (the “Co-Borrower” and together with the Administrative Borrower, the “Borrowers”),
the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”),
Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent (in such capacity, including any successor thereto, the “Administrative
Agent”) for the Lenders, Jefferies Finance LLC, as collateral agent and mortgage trustee for the Secured Parties,
Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (publ), as Issuing Bank, and the other parties thereto. This is not intended to be a definitive
list of all of the terms and conditions of an Auction (as defined below) and all such terms and conditions shall be set forth
in the applicable Auction Procedures set for each Auction (the “Offer Documents”). None of the Administrative
Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates makes any recommendation pursuant to the Offer
Documents as to whether or not any Lender should sell its Term Loans to the Borrowers pursuant to the Offer Documents (including,
for the avoidance of doubt, by participating in the Auction as a Lender) or the Borrowers should purchase any Term Loans from
the Lenders pursuant to any Auction. Each Lender should make its own decision as to whether to sell any of its Term Loans and,
if so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney,
business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning this Auction and the Offer Documents.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Exhibit G have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.


 


Summary.
The Borrowers may make prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.22 of the Credit
Agreement (“Discounted Prepayments”) by conducting one or more auctions (each, an “Auction”)
pursuant to the procedures described herein.


 




     


     


    

 


Notice
Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the Borrowers will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution
to the Lenders) of the Term Loans that will be the subject of the Auction by delivering to the Auction Manager a written notice
in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Auction Manager (an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice
shall contain (i) the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans the Borrowers are willing to purchase in the Auction (the
“Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative
Agent); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000,
at which the Borrowers would be willing to purchase Term Loans in the Auction; and (iii) the date on which the Auction will conclude,
on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due at the time provided in the Auction Notice (such time, the “Expiration
Time”), as such date and time may be extended for a period not exceeding three Business Days upon notice by the Borrowers
to the Auction Manager not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided, however, that only
one extension per Discounted Prepayment Offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction”
in the event that either (x) the Borrowers withdraw such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time
occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
the Borrowers shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion
(whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous
Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.


 


Reply
Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Lender holding Term Loans wishing to participate in such Auction shall,
prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Auction Manager (the “Return Bid”, to be included in the Offer Documents) which shall specify (i) a
discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 of Term Loans (the “Reply Price”) within the Discount
Range and (ii) the principal amount of Term Loans, in an amount not less than $1,000,000, that such Lender is willing to offer
for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”); provided, that each Lender may submit a Reply Amount
that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the
entire amount of the Term Loans of the respective Class held by such Lender at such time. Each Lender may only submit one Return
Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying
Bid and each of which shall not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Lender resulting in a Qualifying
Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an assignment
and acceptance in the form included in the Offer Documents which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Auction Manager and the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) (the “Borrower Assignment and Acceptance”).
The Borrowers will not purchase any Term Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return
Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered
in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price (as defined below).


 


Acceptance
Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation
with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable
Threshold Price”) for the Auction within the Discount Range for the Auction that will allow the Borrowers to complete
the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Borrowers have received Qualifying
Bids). The Administrative Borrower shall (on behalf of the Borrowers) purchase Term Loans from each Lender whose Return Bid is
within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying
Bid”). All principal amount of Term Loans included in Qualifying Bids received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable
Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase price equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration.
If a Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple component bids at different Reply Prices, then all Term Loans of such
Lender offered in any such component bid that constitutes a Qualifying Bid with a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold
Price shall also be purchased at a purchase price in cash equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration.


 




     


     


    

 


Proration
Procedures. All Term Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component bid thereof) constituting Qualifying
Bids equal to the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase price equal to the Applicable Threshold Price; provided
that if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction
equal to the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans
purchased below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Administrative Borrower shall (on behalf of the Borrowers) purchase the Term
Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal
amounts offered and in an aggregate amount up to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. For the
avoidance of doubt, no Return Bids (or any component thereof) will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.


 


Notification
Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price no later than the next Business Day after
the date that the Return Bids were due and shall thereafter notify the Administrative Borrower and respective Lenders thereof.
The Auction Manager will insert the amount of Term Loans to be assigned and the applicable settlement date determined by the Auction
Manager in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) onto each applicable Borrower Assignment
and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon written request of the submitting Lender, the Auction Manager
will promptly return the Borrower Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying
Bid.


 


Additional
Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrowers may withdraw an Auction by written notice to the Auction
Manager no later than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time so long as no Qualifying Bids have been received by the Auction
Manager at or prior to the time the Auction Manager receives such written notice from either Borrower. Any Return Bid (including
any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled; provided
that a Lender may modify a Return Bid at any time prior to the Expiration Time solely to reduce the Reply Price included in
such Return Bid. However, an Auction shall become void if either of the Borrowers fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions
to the purchase of Term Loans set forth in Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement. The purchase price for each Discounted
Prepayment shall be paid in cash by the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) directly to the assigning Lenders
on a settlement date as determined by agreement of the Auction Manager and the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers)
(which shall be no later than 10 Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Borrowers shall execute each applicable
Borrower Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid.


 




     


     


    

 


All
questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of an Auction will be determined
by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), and the Auction Manager’s
determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 2.22
of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit G. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions
of the Offer Document, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers), will be final and binding
so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit
G.


 


None
of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent or any of their respective Affiliates assumes any responsibility
for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, or any of their Affiliates
contained in the Offer Documents or otherwise or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the
significance or accuracy of such information.


 


Immediately
upon the consummation of a Discounted Prepayment, the Term Loans subject to such Discounted Prepayment and all rights and obligations
as a Lender related to such Term Loans shall for all purposes (including under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents
and otherwise) be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and
the Borrowers shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender under the Credit Agreement or under the other Loan Documents
by virtue of such Discounted Prepayment.


 


This Exhibit
G shall not require the Borrowers to initiate any Auction.

Bank Products Provider”) and [identify the Loan Party].


 


1.            Appointment
of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. The Specified Bank Products Provider hereby designates and appoints the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by its signature below hereby
accepts such appointment, as its agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as, and to the extent, provided
therein. The Specified Bank Products Provider hereby acknowledges that it has reviewed Sections 10.01, 10.02, 10.03,
10.04, 10.05, 10.06, 10.07, 10.08, 10.09, 10.10, 10.12, 10.13,

Provisions”), including, as applicable, the defined terms referenced therein (but only to the extent used therein),
and agrees to be bound by the provisions thereof. The Specified Bank Products Provider, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent each agree that the Agency Provisions which govern the relationship, and certain representations, acknowledgements, appointments,
rights, restrictions, and agreements, between the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, on the one hand, and the Lenders
or the Secured Parties, on the other hand, shall, from and after the date of this letter agreement also apply to and govern, mutatis

Products Provider with respect to the Bank Products provided pursuant to the Specified Bank Product Agreement[s], on the other
hand.





 



     


     


    




 


2.            Acknowledgement
of Certain Provisions of Credit Agreement. The Specified Bank Products Provider also hereby acknowledges that it has reviewed
the provisions of Sections 9.01 and 11.02 of the Credit Agreement, including, as applicable, the defined terms referenced
therein, and agrees to be bound by the provisions thereof. Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing referenced
provisions, the Specified Bank Products Provider understands and agrees that its rights and benefits under the Loan Documents

share in Collateral as set forth in the Credit Agreement.


 


3.            Reporting
Requirements. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any obligation to calculate the amount
due and payable with respect to any Bank Products. On a monthly basis (not later than the 10th Business Day of each calendar month)
or as more frequently as the Administrative Agent shall request, the Specified Bank Products Provider agrees to provide the Administrative
Agent with a written report, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, detailing Specified Bank
Products Provider’s reasonable determination of the credit exposure (and mark-to-market exposure) of the Loan Parties in
respect of the Bank Products provided by the Specified Bank Products Provider pursuant to the Specified Bank Product Agreement[s].
If the Administrative Agent does not receive such written report within the time period provided above, the Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to assume that the reasonable determination of the credit exposure of the Loan Parties with respect to the Bank
Products provided pursuant to the Specified Bank Product Agreement[s] is zero.


 


4.           [Reserved].


 


5.            Bank
Product Obligations. From and after the delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of this letter agreement
duly executed by the Specified Bank Products Provider and the acknowledgement of this letter agreement by the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Borrower, the obligations and liabilities of the Loan Parties to the Specified Bank
Products Provider in respect of Bank Products evidenced by the Specified Bank Product Agreement[s] shall constitute Bank Product
Obligations (and which, in turn, shall constitute Secured Obligations), and the Specified Bank Products Provider shall constitute
a Bank Product Provider. The Specified Bank Products Provider acknowledges that other Bank Products (which may or may not be Bank
Products provided pursuant to the Specified Bank Product Agreement[s]) may exist at any time.


 


6.           Notices.
All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be given in the form and manner provided in Section 11.01
of the Credit Agreement, and, if to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, shall be mailed, sent, or delivered
to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement, and if to
the Borrowers, shall be mailed, sent, or delivered to the Administrative Borrower in accordance with Section 11.01 of the
Credit Agreement, and, if to the Specified Bank Products Provider, shall be mailed, sent or delivered to the address set forth

terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement or the Credit
Agreement, as applicable), among the Administrative Borrower, the other Loan Parties from time to time party thereto and the Collateral
Agent.


 


This
joinder agreement (this “Joinder Agreement”) supplements the Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement and
is delivered by the undersigned, [_______________] (the “Joining Party”), pursuant to (i) Section 5.10(b) of the Credit
Agreement and (ii) Section 3.5 of the Security Agreement.





 



     


     


    




 


The
Joining Party hereby agrees on execution hereof to be bound as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as a Pledgor by all of the terms, covenants,
obligations, liabilities and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents
to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and
the other Loan Documents on the execution date or dates of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and such other Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and in furtherance thereof, (i) the Joining Party absolutely, unconditionally
and irrevocably, and jointly and severally, guarantees the due and punctual payment and performance when due of all Guaranteed
Obligations (subject to the Credit Agreement and on the same basis as the other Guarantors under the Guarantees) and (ii) the
Joining Party hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security
for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise)
of the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Pledged
Collateral and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and a Pledgor under the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Joining Party hereby makes each of the
representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to (i) the Pledgors contained in the Security Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and (ii) [the Borrowers,] the Guarantors and the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, in each case as of the date hereof (except to the extent any such representation or warranty relates solely
to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such
earlier date).


 


Annexed
hereto are supplements to each of the Schedules to the Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement, as applicable, with respect
to the Joining Party and a Perfection Certificate with respect to the Joining Party. Such supplements shall be deemed to be part
of the Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable.

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

Joinder Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the
benefit of and be enforceable by each of the parties hereto and its successors and assigns; provided, however, that
the Joining Party may not assign any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under any other Loan Document except
as permitted by the Loan Documents. THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. In the event that any provision of this Joinder Agreement shall prove to be invalid or
unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Joinder Agreement which shall
remain binding on all parties hereto.


 


From
and after the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto, this Joinder Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document”
for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents.


  



     


     


    




 


Each
of the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and each other Loan Document and
applicable to the undersigned is true and correct in all material respects, both before and after giving effect to this Joinder
Agreement on the date hereof, except to the extent that any such representation and warranty relates solely to any earlier date,
in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (it being
understood that any representation or warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect”
or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects on the date hereof or as of such earlier date, as applicable).
