reimbursed the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.4(c) for its Pro Rata Share of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit shall thereupon acquire a pro-rata participation, to the extent of such reimbursement, in the claim
of the Issuing Bank against Borrower under this Section 2.4(d) and shall share, in accordance with that pro-rata participation, in any payment made by Borrower with respect to such claim.

by the Issuing Bank in good faith under the Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or any accompanying document which does not strictly comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit; 
 (vi) the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any property purported to be represented by

 (xiii) so long as the Issuing Bank in good faith determines that the contract or document appears to comply with the terms of the Letter
of Credit, the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any contract or document referred to in any document submitted to the Issuing Bank in connection with a Letter of Credit; and 
 (xiv) where the Issuing Bank has acted in good faith and observed general banking usage, any other circumstances whatsoever. 

(h) The Issuing Bank shall be entitled to the protection accorded to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 10.5 and 10.6,

then undisbursed portion of the Commitment, provided that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid commitment fees, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.7(d),
with respect to any portion of the Commitment being reduced or terminated. 
 2.6 Administrative Agent’s Right to Assume Funds
Available for Advances. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the funding by the Administrative Agent of any Loan that such Bank does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such
Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the total amount of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the Loan and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon
such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent has made funds available to Borrower based on such assumption and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by
such Bank, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Bank, 

  

 -28- 








 
which demand shall be made in a reasonably prompt manner. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s
demand therefor, the Administrative Agent promptly shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover from such Bank interest on such
corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal

default by such Bank hereunder.

Section 3.7, the Notes may, at any time and from time to time, voluntarily be paid or prepaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty, provided that with respect to any voluntary prepayment of the Notes under this
Section 3.1(e), 

  

 -30- 








 
(i) any partial prepayment shall be in an integral multiple of $250,000 which is not less than $500,000, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have
received written notice of any prepayment prior to 9:00 a.m. California time on the Banking Day of (or, in the case of any prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, three Eurodollar Banking Days before) the date of prepayment, which notice shall
identify the date and amount of the prepayment and (iii) each repayment of principal shall be accompanied by payment of interest accrued through the date of payment on the amount of principal paid. 
 3.2 Structuring Fees; Annual Agency Fees. On the Restatement Date, the Borrower shall pay certain non-refundable structuring fees as set forth in
the Fee Letter. On the Restatement Date and on each anniversary of the Restatement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent agency fees in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter. These agency fees are fully earned as of the date when
due, are solely for the account of Administrative Agent and are non-refundable. 
 3.3 Facility Fees. On the Restatement Date,
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, a non-refundable facility fee in amount equal to 0.25% of that Bank’s allocated Pro Rata Share. 
 3.4 Commitment Fees. From the Restatement Date, Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Banks according to their
Pro Rata Shares, commitment fees equal to the product of (a) the per annum percentage set forth below opposite the Utilized Commitment set forth in the then most recently delivered Pricing Certificate times (b) the average daily
Unused Commitment. 
  

				
	 Utilized Commitment
	  	Commitment Fees	 
	 Less than or equal to 33.3333%
	  	.625	%
	 Greater than 33.3333% but less than or equal to 50.0000%
	  	.500	%
	 Greater than 50.0000%
	  	.375	%

 The commitment fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, upon termination of the
Commitment under Section 2.5 and on the Maturity Date. 
 3.5 Standby Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower shall pay standby letter of
credit fees (a) to the Issuing Bank, for the sole account of the Issuing Bank, in an amount set forth in the Fee Letter, and (b) to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Banks in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, in
an amount equal to sum of the Applicable Percentage for Letters of Credit plus 0.25% times the maximum amount available for drawing under such Letter of Credit, in each case for the term of such Letter of Credit. The standby
letter of credit fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, upon termination of the Commitment under Section 2.5 and on the Maturity Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly make available to the Banks in
immediately available funds, pro-rata according to their Pro Rata Share, the standby letter of credit fees which are for the account of the Banks. 

  

 -31- 








 
Borrower shall also pay transfer, issuance, check fees and such other fees as the Issuing Bank normally charges (not to include origination fees) in
connection with standby letters of credit and activity pursuant thereto, which fees shall be solely for the account of the Issuing Bank. 
 3.6 Increased Commitment Costs. If any Bank shall have determined that the introduction of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or any change in the interpretation or
administration thereof by any central bank or other Governmental Agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by that Bank (or its Eurodollar Lending Office) or any corporation controlling that Bank, with any
request, guidelines or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such central bank or other authority, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by that Bank or any
corporation controlling that Bank and (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Bank’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is
increased as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Bank, Borrower shall immediately pay to that Bank, from time to time as specified by that Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate that Bank for
such increase. 
 3.7 Eurodollar Fees and Costs. 
 (a) If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any Special Eurodollar Circumstance: 
 (i) shall subject any Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office to any tax, duty or other charge or cost with respect to any Eurodollar Rate
Advance, its Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Bank of the principal of or interest on any Eurodollar Rate Advance or any other amounts due under this Agreement in
respect of any Eurodollar Rate Advance, its Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances (except for changes in any tax on the overall net income, gross income or gross receipts of such Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office);

 (ii) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any reserve imposed by the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit or similar requirements against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office; or 
 (iii) shall impose on any Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office or the Designated Eurodollar Market any other condition affecting any
Eurodollar Rate Advance, its Note, its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or this Agreement, or shall otherwise affect any of the same; 
 and the
result of any of the foregoing, as determined by such Bank, increases the cost to such Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance or in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Advance, its Note or its
obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank or its Eurodollar Lending 

  

 -32- 








 
Office with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance, its Note or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances (assuming such Bank’s Eurodollar Lending
Office had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Advance in the Designated Eurodollar Market), then, upon demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Bank for such increased cost or reduction (determined as though such Bank’s Eurodollar Lending Office had funded 100% of its Eurodollar Rate Advance in the Designated Eurodollar Market). A statement of any Bank claiming
compensation under this subsection and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Bank agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it
has actual knowledge occurring after the Restatement Date, which will entitle such Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section, and agrees to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office promptly if such designation will avoid the need for or
reduce the amount of such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, otherwise be disadvantageous to such Bank. If any Bank claims compensation under this Section, Borrower may at any time, upon at least four (4) Eurodollar
Banking Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and such Bank and upon payment in full of the amounts provided for in this Section through the date of such payment plus any prepayment fee required by Section 3.7(d), pay in
full the affected Eurodollar Rate Advances of such Bank or request that such Eurodollar Rate Advances be converted to Base Rate Advances. 
 (b) If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any Special Eurodollar Circumstance shall, in the opinion of any Bank, make it unlawful, impossible or impracticable for such Bank or its Eurodollar
Lending Office to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or materially restrict the authority of such Bank to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market, or to determine or charge
interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, and such Bank shall so notify the Administrative Agent, then such Bank’s obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended for the duration of such illegality, impossibility or
impracticability and the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice thereof to the other Banks and Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, the outstanding principal amount of such Bank’s Eurodollar Rate Advances, together with accrued
interest thereon, automatically shall be converted to Base Rate Advances on either (1) the last day of the Eurodollar Period(s) applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Advances if such Bank may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Eurodollar
Rate Advances to such day(s) or (2) immediately if such Bank may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances to such day(s), provided that in such event the conversion shall not be subject to payment of a
prepayment fee under Section 3.7(d). In the event that any Bank is unable, for the reasons set forth above, to make, maintain or fund its portion of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, such Bank shall fund such amount as a Base Rate Advance for the same
period of time, and such amount shall be treated in all respects as a Base Rate Advance. 
 (c) If, with respect to any
proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that, by reason of circumstances
affecting the Designated Eurodollar Market generally that are beyond the reasonable control of the Banks, deposits in dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to each of the Banks in the Designated Eurodollar Market for the
applicable Eurodollar Period; or 
  

 -33- 








 (ii) the Majority Banks advise the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate as
determined by the Administrative Agent (A) does not represent the effective pricing to such Banks for deposits in dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market in the relevant amount for the applicable Eurodollar Period, or (B) will not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of making the applicable Eurodollar Rate Advances; 
 then the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give
notice thereof to Borrower and the Banks, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Banks to make any future Eurodollar Rate Advances shall
be suspended. If at the time of such notice there is then pending a Request for Loan that specifies a Eurodollar Rate Loan, such Request for Loan shall be deemed to specify a Base Rate Loan. 
 (d) Upon payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Advance, (other than as the result of a conversion required under
Section 3.7(b)), on a day other than the last day in the applicable Eurodollar Period (whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), or upon the failure of Borrower to borrow on the date or in the amount
specified for a Eurodollar Rate Loan in any Request for Loan, Borrower shall pay to the appropriate Bank a prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee, as the case may be, calculated as follows (and determined as though 100% of the Eurodollar Rate
Advance had been funded in the Designated Eurodollar Market): 
 (i) principal amount of the Eurodollar Rate Advance,
times [number of days between the date of prepayment and the last day in the applicable Eurodollar Period], divided by 360, times the applicable Interest Differential; plus 
 (ii) all actual out-of-pocket expenses (other than those taken into account in the calculation of the Interest Differential) incurred by
the Bank (excluding allocations of any expense internal to that Bank) and reasonably attributable to such payment or prepayment; 
 provided
that no prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee shall be payable (and no credit or rebate shall be required) if the product of the foregoing formula is not a positive number. Each Bank’s determination of the amount of any prepayment fee or
failure to borrow fee payable under this Section 3.7(d) shall be based upon the Administrative Agent’s determination of the applicable Interest Differential but shall otherwise be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 3.8 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of the Loans shall, at the option of the Majority
Banks, thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage for Base Rate Loans plus 2% per annum, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including, without limitation, interest on past due interest) shall be compounded quarterly, on the last day of each calendar quarter, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Laws. 
  

 -34- 








 3.9 Computation of Interest and Fees. Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans shall be
calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of interest on Eurodollar Rate Loans and on fees under this Agreement shall be calculated on the basis of a year of
360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Borrower acknowledges that such latter calculation method will result in a higher yield to the Banks than a method based on a year of 365 or 366 days. Any Loan that is repaid on the same day
on which it is made shall bear interest for one day. For the purpose of complying with Nevada Revised Statutes Section 99.050, Borrower hereby declares that it understands that to the extent principal sums are advanced by the Banks for the
purpose of funding the payments of interest due on each Quarterly Payment Date, as set forth in this Article 3 or in any other obligation owing by Borrower to Administrative Agent or to the Banks under any Loan Document, a compounding of
interest results, which compounding is agreed to by Borrower as part of the terms of this Agreement and of the Notes. 
 3.10 Non-Banking
Days. If any payment to be made by Borrower or any other Party under any Loan Document shall come due on a day other than a Banking Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Banking Day and the extension of time shall
be reflected in computing interest. 
 3.11 Manner and Treatment of Payments. 
 (a) Each payment hereunder or on the Notes or under any other Loan Document shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each of the Banks or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the day of payment (which must be a Banking Day). Each such payment shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office. All payments received after 11:00 a.m., California time, on any particular Banking Day, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Banking Day. The amount of all payments
received by the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank shall be promptly paid (and, in any event, on the same Banking Day when deemed received) by the Administrative Agent to that Bank in immediately available funds. All payments shall be
made in lawful money of the United States of America. 
 (b) Each payment or prepayment on account of any Loan shall be made
and applied pro rata according to the outstanding Advances made by each Bank comprising such Loan. 
 (c) Each Bank shall use
its best efforts to keep a record of Advances made by it and payments received by it with respect to each of its Note and such record shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts owing. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, no Bank shall be liable
to any Party for any failure to keep such a record, and no such failure shall affect the amount of the Obligations hereunder. 
  

 -35- 








 3.12 Funding Source. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Bank to obtain the
funds for any Loan or Advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Bank that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan or Advance in any particular place or manner. 
 3.13 Failure to Charge Not Subsequent Waiver. Any decision by the Administrative Agent or any Bank not to require payment of any interest
(including interest at the Default Rate), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate any amount payable by a particular method, on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver of the Administrative
Agent’s or such Bank’s right to require full payment of any interest (including interest at the Default Rate), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document, or to calculate an amount payable by another method, on any
other or subsequent occasion. 
 3.14 Administrative Agent’s Right to Assume Payments Will be Made by Borrower. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified by Borrower prior to the date on which any payment to be made by Borrower hereunder is due that Borrower does not intend to remit such payment, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, assume
that Borrower has remitted such payment when so due and the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to each Bank on such payment date an amount equal to such Bank’s share of such assumed
payment. If Borrower has not in fact remitted such payment to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Bank, together with interest
thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 3.15 Authority to Charge Account. Borrower hereby authorizes Bank of America to charge the Designated Deposit Account, or any other demand deposit
account maintained by Borrower with Bank of America, in such amounts as may from time to time be necessary to cause timely payment of principal, interest, fees and other charges payable by Borrower under the Loan Documents. Nothing herein shall
obligate Bank of America to charge the Designated Deposit Account, or any other account, in this manner or to charge any account at a time when there are not sufficient good funds in such account. 
 3.16 Fee Determination Detail. The Administrative Agent, and any Bank, shall provide reasonable detail to Borrower regarding the manner in which
the amount of any payment to the Banks, or that Bank, under Article 3 has been determined. 
  

 -36-

constitutes a Material Adverse Effect since December 31, 2004 or the Restatement Date. 
 4.7 Title to Property. As of the
Restatement Date, Borrower and its Subsidiaries have good and valid title to all the Property reflected in the financial statements described in Section 4.5(b) other than immaterial items of Property subsequently sold or disposed of in

Intangible Assets that are used in the conduct of their business as now operated and which are material to the condition (financial or otherwise), business or operations of Borrower, and no such Intangible Asset, to the best knowledge of Borrower,

of purchasing or carrying, any “margin stock” (as such term is defined in Regulations U and X) in violation of Regulations T, U and X. Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not engaged principally, or as one of their important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any such “margin stock.” Borrower and its Subsidiaries are not required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. 
 4.15 Disclosure. No written statement made by a Responsible Official of Borrower to the Administrative Agent
or any Bank in connection with this Agreement, or in connection with any Loan, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary in order to make the statement made not misleading in light of all the circumstances
existing at the date the statement was made. There is no fact known to Borrower (other than matters of a general economic nature or matters generally applicable to businesses of the types engaged in by Borrower and its Subsidiaries) which would
constitute a Material Adverse Effect that has not been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Banks. 
 4.16 Tax
Liability. Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed all material tax returns which are required to be filed, and have paid, or made provision for the payment of, all taxes with respect to the periods, Property or transactions covered by said

maintained; provided that as of each date following the Restatement Date, this representation is made solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  

 -40- 








 4.17 Projections. As of the Restatement Date, to the best knowledge of Borrower, the assumptions
set forth in the Projections are reasonable and consistent with each other and with all facts known to Borrower and no material assumption is omitted as a basis for the Projections, and the Projections are reasonably based on such assumptions.
Nothing in this Section shall be construed as a representation or covenant that the Projections in fact will be achieved. 
 4.18 Employee
Matters. There is no strike or work stoppage in existence or threatened involving Borrower or its Subsidiaries that would constitute a Material Adverse Effect; provided that as of each date following the Restatement Date, this
representation is made solely with respect to Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 4.19 Gaming Laws. Borrower and each of its Affiliates are in
compliance with all Gaming Laws that are applicable to them, except for any violations that would not constitute a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.20 Security Interests. The Security Agreement and the Subsidiary Security Agreement create valid first priority security interests in the Collateral described therein securing the Obligations (subject only to then existing
Permitted Encumbrances, Permitted Rights of Others and matters disclosed in Schedule 6.9 and to such qualifications and exceptions as are contained in the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the priority of security interests
perfected by means other than the filing of a financing statement or with respect to the creation of security interests in Property to which Division 9 of said Code does not apply) and all action necessary to perfect the security interests so
created have been taken and completed. The Deed of Trust and the Auxiliary Parking Lot Deed of Trust create valid Liens in the Collateral described therein securing the Obligations (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances, Permitted Rights of Others
and matters described in Schedule 6.9) and all action necessary to perfect the Liens so created, other than recordation thereof with the appropriate Governmental Agency, will have been taken and completed. 
 4.21 Hazardous Materials. Except as specifically described in Schedule 4.21, neither Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries nor, to
the best knowledge of Borrower, any predecessor in title or any third person at any time occupying or present on the Real Property at any time, has disposed of, discharged, released or threatened the release of any material amount of Hazardous
Materials on, from or under such real property in any manner that violates any Hazardous Materials Law. Except as specifically described in Schedule 4.21, to the best knowledge of Borrower no condition exists that violates any Hazardous
Material Law affecting the Real Property except for such violations that would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as specifically described in Schedule 4.21, the Real Property and each portion
thereof is not and has not been utilized by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries as a site for the manufacture of any Hazardous Materials and is in compliance in all material respects with all Hazardous Materials Laws. To the extent that any
Hazardous Materials have been, or are, used, generated or stored by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries on any Real Property, or transported to or from such Real Property by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, such use, generation,
storage and transportation have been and are, in compliance in all material respects with all Hazardous Materials Laws. 
 4.22
Non-Recourse. None of the creditors of any Unrestricted Subsidiary has any recourse to Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  

 -41- 








 4.23 Certain Leases. The Certificate of a Responsible Official of Borrower and CS&Y dated as
of March 25, 1994 and delivered to the Administrative Agent certifying that the attached copy of the Lease dated July 21, 1972, as amended, between Borrower and CS&Y is true, correct and complete, remains accurate as of the Restatement

 (a) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of any Event of Default other than an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(j): 
 (i) the commitment to make Advances and issue Letters of Credit and all other obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank
and the Banks and all rights of Borrower and any other Parties under the Loan Documents shall be suspended without notice to or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly waived by Borrower, except that the Majority Banks (or, in the case of
any Event of Default which arises under a provision of the Loan Documents the amendment of which requires the consent of all the Banks under Section 11.2, all of the Banks) may waive the Event of Default or, without waiving, determine, upon
terms and conditions satisfactory to such Banks, to reinstate the Commitment and make further Advances and issue further Letters of Credit, which waiver or determination shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all the Banks; 

(ii) the Issuing Bank may, with the approval of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Majority Banks, demand immediate payment by
Borrower of an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit to be held by the Issuing Bank as cash collateral for the Obligations in non-interest bearing accounts with the Issuing Bank; and 
 (iii) the Majority Banks may request the Administrative Agent to, and the Administrative Agent thereupon shall, terminate the Commitment
and declare all or any part of the unpaid principal of all Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be forthwith due
and payable, without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower. 
 (b) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 9.1(j): 
 (i) the
commitment to make Advances and issue Letters of Credit and all other obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks and all rights of Borrower and any other Parties under the Loan Documents shall terminate without notice to

make further Advances and issue further Letters of Credit; 
 (ii) an amount equal to the aggregate amount available for
drawing under outstanding Letters of Credit shall forthwith become due and payable to the Issuing Bank without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are waived by Borrower; and 
  

 -59- 








 (iii) the unpaid principal of all Notes, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon and all
other amounts payable under the Loan Documents shall be forthwith due and payable, without protest, presentment, notice of dishonor, demand or further notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower. 
 (c) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (but only with the consent of the Majority Banks), without
notice to (except as expressly provided for in any Loan Document) or demand upon Borrower, which are expressly waived by Borrower (except as to notices expressly provided for in any Loan Document), may proceed in accordance with
applicable Laws (but only with the consent of the Majority Banks) to protect, exercise and enforce their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents (including the Collateral Documents) against Borrower and any other Party and such other rights and
remedies as are provided by Law or equity. 
 (d) The order and manner in which the Banks’ rights and remedies are to be
exercised shall be determined by the Majority Banks in their sole discretion, and all payments received by the Administrative Agent and the Banks, or any of them, shall be applied first to the costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and
disbursements payable pursuant to Section 11.3) of the Administrative Agent, acting as Administrative Agent, and of the Banks, and thereafter paid pro rata to the Banks in the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed to each Bank
under the Loan Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed under the Loan Documents to all the Banks, without priority or preference among the Banks. Regardless of how each Bank may treat payments for the purpose of its own accounting, for the
purpose of computing Borrower’s Obligations hereunder and under the Notes, payments shall be applied first, to the costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, acting as the Administrative Agent, and the Banks, as set forth above,
second, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest due under any Loan Documents to and including the date of such application (ratably, and without duplication, according to the accrued and unpaid interest due under each of the Loan
Documents), and third, to the payment of all other amounts (including principal and fees) then owing to the Administrative Agent or the Banks under the Loan Documents. No application of payments will cure any Event of Default, or prevent
acceleration, or continued acceleration, of amounts payable under the Loan Documents, or prevent the exercise, or continued exercise, of rights or remedies of the Banks hereunder or thereunder or at law or in equity.

 ARTICLE 10 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 10.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Banks and the Issuing
Bank hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as
are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Banks
and the Issuing Bank, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 10.2 Rights as a
Bank. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Bank as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term
“Bank” or “Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the
Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Banks. 
 10.3 Proportionate Interest of the Banks in any
Collateral. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of all the Banks, shall hold in accordance with the Loan Documents all items of any collateral or interests therein received or held by the Administrative Agent. Subject to the Administrative
Agent’s and the Banks’ rights to reimbursement for their costs and expenses hereunder (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other professional services), each Bank shall have an interest in any collateral or
interests therein in the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed such Bank under the Loan Documents (other than an Approved Swap Agreement) bear to the aggregate Obligations owed under the Loan Documents to all the Banks, without
priority or preference among the Banks. Any obligation owed to a Bank under an Approved Swap Agreement shall rank pari passu with the Obligations under the Loan Documents up to an amount equal to the risk assessment factor then generally
utilized by the Administrative Agent in assessing similar interest rate protection agreements times the notional amount of Indebtedness covered by that Approved Swap Agreement, and shall be subordinate to the Obligations under other Loan
Documents to the extent of any excess over such amount. 
 10.4 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Banks. Each Bank and
the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank or any of their Related Parties and based on
such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
  

 -61- 








 10.5 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall, if the Administrative Agent has received a notice of Default or Event of Default, give notice thereof to the Banks; 

(c) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and
powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided
for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is
contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 
 (d) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
(i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as
provided in Section 11.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to
the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Bank or the Issuing Bank. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any
duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or
thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VIII or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm
receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 10.6 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or 

  

 -62- 








 
otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it
to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled
to the satisfaction of a Bank or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Bank or
the Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 10.7 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to
any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as
Administrative Agent. 
 10.8 Reimbursement by Banks. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any
amount required under Sections 11.3 or 11.11 of this Agreement to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Bank severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Bank’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such
unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing
Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Banks under this Section are
subject to the provisions of Section 11.4. 
 10.9 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time
give notice of its resignation to the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Banks shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank
with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Banks and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above;
provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and 

  

 -63- 








 
(1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in
the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks or the Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a
successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Bank and the Issuing Bank directly, until
such time as the Majority Banks appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become
vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its
sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank, (b) the retiring Issuing Bank shall
be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of
such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 10.10 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Lead Arranger or Book Manager listed on the cover page
hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Bank or the Issuing Bank hereunder. 
 10.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Letter of Credit Obligation shall then be
due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans,
Letter of Credit Obligations 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 Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including


  

 -64- 








 
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and their
respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Sections 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 11.3 and 11.11) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Bank
and the Issuing Bank 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 Banks and the Issuing Bank, 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 Article 3, 10.08, 11.3 and 11.11. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Bank or the Issuing Bank
any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Bank in any such proceeding. 
 10.12 Collateral Matters. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent is authorized by each Bank, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Bank, and without the obligation to take any such action, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or any
Collateral Document which may from time to time be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens of the Collateral Documents. 
 (b) The Banks irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of
the Commitment and the payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations payable under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents; (ii) constituting Property of Borrower or its Affiliates which is sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed of in connection with any transaction not prohibited by this Agreement; (iii) constituting Property leased to Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction not prohibited by
this Agreement or which will concurrently expire and which has not been and is not intended by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries to be, renewed or extended; (iv) consisting of an instrument, if the Indebtedness evidenced thereby has been
paid in full; or (v) if approved or consented to by those of the Banks required by Section 11.2. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Banks will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular
types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section. 
  

 -65- 








 10.13 No Obligations of Borrower. Nothing contained in this Article 10 shall be deemed
to impose upon Borrower any obligation in respect of the due and punctual performance by the Administrative Agent of its obligations to the Banks under any provision of this Agreement, and Borrower shall have no liability to the Administrative Agent
or any of the Banks in respect of any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Bank to perform any of its obligations to the Administrative Agent or the Banks under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where any
provision of this Agreement relating to the payment of any amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents provides that such payments shall be made by Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, Borrower’s obligations to
the Banks in respect of such payments shall be deemed to be satisfied upon the making of such payments to the Administrative Agent in the manner provided by this Agreement.

 11.1 Cumulative Remedies; No Waiver. The rights, powers, privileges and
remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks provided herein or in any Note or other Loan Document are cumulative and not exclusive of any right, power, privilege or remedy provided by Law or equity. No failure or delay on
the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank in exercising any right, power, privilege or remedy may be, or may be deemed to be, a waiver thereof; nor may any single or partial exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy
preclude any other or further exercise of the same or any other right, power, privilege or remedy. The terms and conditions of Article 8 hereof are inserted for the sole benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Banks; the same may be waived in whole or in part, with or without terms or conditions, in respect of any Loan or Letter of Credit without prejudicing the Administrative Agent’s, the Issuing Bank’s or the Banks’ rights to assert them
in whole or in part in respect of any other Loan or Letter of Credit. 
 11.2 Amendments; Consents. No amendment, modification,
supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by Borrower or any other Party therefrom, may in any event be effective
unless in writing signed by the Administrative Agent with the approval in writing of the Majority Banks (and, in the case of amendments, modifications or supplements of or to any Loan Document to which Borrower is a Party, the approval in writing of
Borrower), and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given; and, without the approval in writing of all the Banks, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent may be effective: 
 (a) To (i) decrease the principal of, or the amount of principal, principal prepayments or the rate of interest payable on, any Note,
or of any commitment fee payable to any Bank, or any other fee or amount payable to any Bank under the Loan Documents, or (ii) increase the amount of the Commitment; 
 (b) To postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, prepayment of principal of or any installment of interest on, any Note or
any installment of any commitment fee, or to extend the term of the Commitment, or to release any Collateral (except as specifically provided for in any Loan Document), or to release any guarantor from the Guaranty; 
 (c) To amend or modify the provisions of the definition of “Majority Banks”, Articles 9 or 10; or this
Section 11.2; 
 (d) To amend or modify any provision of this Agreement in a manner which materially and adversely
affects the Issuing Bank without the written consent of the Issuing Bank; or 
 (e) To amend or modify any provision of this
Agreement that expressly requires the consent or approval of all the Banks. 
  

 -67- 








 Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall apply
equally to, and shall be binding upon, all the Banks, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent. 
 11.3 Costs, Expenses and
Taxes. Borrower shall pay on demand the reasonable costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks in connection with the amendment, waiver, refinancing, restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization) and enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents, and any matter
related thereto, including, without limitation, filing fees, recording fees, title insurance fees, appraisal fees, search fees and other out-of-pocket expenses and the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of any legal counsel (including
the allocated fees and all disbursements and other expenses of any internal legal counsel), independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Administrative Agent or any Bank, and including, without limitation, any
costs, expenses or fees incurred or suffered by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in connection with or during the course of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of Borrower; provided that (a) Administrative Agent and the Banks
shall, in connection with any such amendment, waiver, refinancing, restructuring, reorganization, enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents shall use their best efforts to avoid duplicative efforts by legal counsel on behalf of
Administrative Agent and one or more Banks, and (b) in the event that Borrower is the prevailing party in any proceeding referred to above (other than any proceeding commenced or maintained after any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding with
respect to Borrower), Borrower shall be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable attorneys fees and costs. Borrower shall pay any and all documentary and other taxes (other than income or gross receipts taxes generally applicable to banks) and
all costs, expenses, fees and charges payable or determined to be payable in connection with the filing or recording of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or writing to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, or in
connection with any transaction pursuant hereto or thereto, and shall reimburse, hold harmless and indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Banks from and against any and all loss, liability or legal or other expense with respect to or resulting
from any delay in paying or failure to pay any tax, cost, expense, fee or charge or that any of them may suffer or incur by reason of the failure of any Party to perform any of its Obligations. Any amount payable to the Administrative Agent or any
Bank under this Section shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the second Banking Day of a demand for payment. 
 11.4 Nature of
Banks’ Obligations. The obligations of the Banks hereunder are several and not joint or joint and several. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and no action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Banks or any of
them pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make the Banks a partnership, an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among themselves or with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower. Each Bank’s obligation to
make any Advance pursuant hereto is several and not joint or joint and several. A default by any Bank will not increase the percentage of the Commitment attributable to any other Bank. Any Bank not in default may, if it desires, assume in such
proportion as the nondefaulting Banks agree the obligations of any Bank in default, but is not obligated to do so. The Administrative Agent agrees that it will use its best efforts either to induce the other Banks to assume the obligations of a Bank
in default or to obtain another Bank, reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, to replace such a Bank in default. 
  

 -68- 








 11.5 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder
and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied
upon by the Administrative Agent and each Bank, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Bank or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default at the time of any Advance or Letter of Credit, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

 11.6 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Loan Documents: (a) All notices, requests, demands,
directions and other communications provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document must be in writing and must be mailed, telegraphed, telecopied, delivered or sent by telex or cable to the appropriate party at the address set forth on the
signature pages of this Agreement or other applicable Loan Document or, as to any party to any Loan Document, at any other address as may be designated by it in a written notice sent to all other parties to such Loan Document in accordance with this
Section; and (b) Any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication given by telegram, telecopier, telex or cable must be confirmed within 48 hours by letter mailed or delivered to the appropriate party at its respective
address. Except as otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, if any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication required or permitted by any Loan Document is given by mail it will be effective on the earlier of receipt
or the third Banking Day after deposit in the United States mail with first class or airmail postage prepaid; if given by telegraph or cable, when delivered to the telegraph company with charges prepaid; if given by telex or telecopier, when sent;
or if given by personal delivery, when delivered. Notices given by the Borrower under Articles 2 and 3 shall be deemed given on actual receipt by the Administrative Agent. 
 11.7 Execution of Loan Documents. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise specifies with respect to any Loan Document, this Agreement and any
other Loan Document may be executed in any number of counterparts and any party hereto or thereto may execute any counterpart, each of which when executed and delivered will be deemed to be an original and all of which counterparts of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document, as the case may be, when taken together will be deemed to be but one and the same instrument. The execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party hereto or thereto will not become effective until
counterparts hereof or thereof, as the case may be, have been executed by all the parties hereto or thereto. 
 11.8 Binding Effect;
Assignment. 
 (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and thereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower and/or its Affiliates may not assign their rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all
the Banks. 

  

 -69- 








 
Any assignment by the Borrower or its Affiliates without the prior written consent of the Banks shall be void, provided that no Person other than the
Banks shall have any rights under this sentence. Each Bank represents that it is not acquiring its Note with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (subject to any requirement that disposition
of its Note must be within the control of such Bank). Any Bank may at any time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Bank under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release that Bank from
its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Bank hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge. 
 (b) From time to time following the Restatement Date, each Bank may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its Pro Rata Share; provided that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if not then a Bank or an Affiliate
or Approved Fund of the assigning Bank, shall be approved by each of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed or, if an Event
of Default has occurred and remains continuing, required), (ii) such assignment shall be evidenced by an Assignment and Assumption, a copy of which shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent, (iii) except in the case of an assignment
to an Affiliate or Approved Fund of the assigning Bank, to another Bank or of the entire remaining Commitment of the assigning Bank, the assignment shall be of a Pro Rata Share not less than $2,000,000, and (iv) the effective date of any
such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and Assumption, but not earlier than the date which is five (5) Banking Days after the date the Administrative Agent has received the Assignment and Assumption. Upon the effective date of
such Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be a Bank for all purposes of this Agreement, with the Pro Rata Share set forth therein and, to the extent of such Pro Rata Share, the assigning Bank shall be released from
its further obligations under this Agreement. Borrower agrees that it shall execute and deliver (against delivery by the assigning Bank to Borrower of its Note) to such assignee Bank, a Note evidencing that assignee Bank’s Pro Rata Share, and
to the assigning Bank, a Note evidencing the remaining balance Pro Rata Share retained by the assigning Bank. 
 (c) By
executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pro Rata Share being assigned
thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Bank has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Bank has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial
condition of Borrower or the performance by Borrower of the Obligations; (iii) it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 and such other
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Bank and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by this Agreement; and (vi) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are
required to be performed by it as a Bank. 
  

 -70- 








 (d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a
copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it. After receipt of a completed Assignment and Assumption executed by any Bank and an Eligible Assignee, and receipt of an assignment fee of $2,000 from such Eligible Assignee, Administrative
Agent shall provide notice thereof to Borrower and the Banks. 
 (e) Each Bank may grant participations from time to time in a
portion of its Pro Rata Share to one or more banks or other financial institutions (including another Bank); provided, however, that (i) the holder of such participation interest, if not then a Bank or an Affiliate of the
granting Bank, shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed or, if an Event of Default has occurred and remains continuing, required), (ii) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement
shall remain unchanged, (iii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) the participating banks or other financial institutions shall not be a Bank hereunder for any
purpose except, if the participation agreement so provides, for the purposes of Sections 3.6, 3.7, 11.11 and 11.26, (v) Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (vi) the participation interest shall be expressed as a percentage of the granting Bank’s Pro Rata Share as they then exist and shall
not restrict an increase in the Commitment, or in the granting Bank’s Pro Rata Share, so long as the amount of the participation interest is not affected thereby and (vii) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not
be required for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents other than those which (A) extend the Maturity Date or any date upon which any payment of any principal, fees or interest are due to the Banks, (B) reduce any
installment of principal due with respect to the Notes, the rate of interest on the Notes, or any fee payable to the Banks, or (C) increase the amount of the Commitment (only if the holder of such participation interest’s commitment is
also increased). 
 (f) Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the rights of the Banks to make assignments
of, and grant participations in, their Pro Rata Shares of the Commitment shall be subject to the approval of any Gaming Board, to the extent required by applicable Gaming Laws. 
 11.9 Lien on Deposits and Property in Possession of any Bank. As security for the prompt payment and performance of all Obligations, Borrower
hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks and each of them a Lien on and a security interest in all its right, title, and interest in and to any and all deposit accounts now or hereafter maintained with the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank and in and to any and all of its Property and the proceeds thereof now or hereafter in the possession of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank. If an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, any Bank (but only with the consent of the Majority Banks) may, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, exercise its rights under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code and other applicable Laws and apply any funds in
any deposit account maintained with it by Borrower and/or any Property of Borrower in its possession against the Obligations. 
  

 -71- 








 11.10 Sharing of Setoffs. Each Bank severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right
of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim against Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, or otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more than any other Bank, through any means, receives in payment of the
Obligations held by that Bank, then: (a) The Bank exercising the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such payment shall notify the Administrative Agent and thereafter shall purchase, and shall be deemed to
have simultaneously purchased, from the other Bank a participation in the Obligations held by the other Bank and shall pay to the other Bank a purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each Bank after the exercise of
the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) Such
other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all of the Banks share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Bank’s share of the
Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that, if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim
or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Bank by Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, the purchase of a participation shall be
rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery. Each Bank that purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices,
requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Bank were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. Borrower
expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Bank holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully
as if the Bank were the original owner of the Obligation purchased; provided, however, that each Bank agrees that it shall not exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim without first obtaining the consent of the
Majority Banks. 
 11.11 Indemnity by Borrower. Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank, the Lead Arranger and each Bank and their Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of
action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (other than the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lead Arranger or a Bank) if the claim, demand, action or cause of action directly or indirectly relates to a claim, demand,
action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against Borrower, any Affiliate of Borrower or any officer, director or shareholder of Borrower; (b) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action if the claim, demand,
action or cause of action arises out of or relates to the Commitment, the use or contemplated use of proceeds of any Loan, the relationship of Borrower and the Banks under this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement,
(c) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Agency arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in clauses (a) or (b) above; and (d) any and all liabilities, losses,
costs 

  

 -72- 








 
or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other professional services) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of
the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action or cause of action; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any claim, demand, action or
cause of action is asserted against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify Borrower, but the failure to so promptly notify Borrower shall not affect Borrower’s obligations under this Section unless such failure materially
prejudices Borrower’s right to participate in the contest of such claim, demand, action or cause of action, as hereinafter provided. Each Indemnitee may, and if requested by Borrower in writing shall, in good faith contest the validity,
applicability and amount of such claim, demand, action or cause of action with counsel selected by such Indemnitee and reasonably acceptable to Borrower, and shall permit Borrower to participate in such contest. Any Indemnitee that proposes to
settle or compromise any claim or proceeding for which Borrower may be liable for payment of indemnity hereunder shall give Borrower written notice of the terms of such proposed settlement or compromise reasonably in advance of settling or
compromising such claim or proceeding and shall obtain Borrower’s prior consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld. Each Indemnitee is authorized to employ counsel in enforcing its rights hereunder and in defending any claim,
demand, action or cause of action covered by this Section; provided that each Indemnitee shall endeavor, but shall not be obligated, in connection with any matter covered by this Section which also involves other Indemnitees, to use
reasonable efforts to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort by counsel for all Indemnitees. Any obligation or liability of Borrower to any Indemnitee under this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and the
repayment of all Loans and the payment and performance of all other Obligations owed to the Banks; provided, however, that such obligations or liabilities shall not, from and after the date on which the Notes are fully paid and the Commitment
is terminated, be deemed Obligations for any purpose under the Loan Documents. 
 11.12 Nonliability of the Banks. Borrower
acknowledges and agrees that: 
 (a) Any inspections of any Property of Borrower made by or through the Administrative Agent,
the Lead Arranger, the Issuing Bank or the Banks are for purposes of administration of the Loan Documents only and Borrower is not entitled to rely upon the same; 
 (b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, fulfilled or given to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or the Banks pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor the Banks shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency, legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term,
provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks; 
 (c) The relationship between Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks is, and shall at all times remain,
solely that of a borrower and lenders; neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank nor the Banks shall under any circumstance be construed to be partners or joint venturers of Borrower or its Affiliates; neither the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank nor the Banks shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in a relationship of confidence or trust or a 

  

 -73- 








 
fiduciary relationship with Borrower or its Affiliates, or to owe any fiduciary duty to Borrower or its Affiliates; neither the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank nor the Banks undertake or assume any responsibility or duty to Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their Property or
the operations of Borrower or its Affiliates; Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or
assumed by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks and neither Borrower nor any other Person is entitled to rely
thereon; and 
 (d) The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks shall not be responsible or liable to any Person
for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to Property or other loss, damage, liability or claim caused by the actions, inaction or negligence of Borrower and/or its Affiliates and Borrower
hereby indemnifies and holds the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks harmless from any such loss, damage, liability or claim. 
 11.13 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made for the purpose of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Banks in connection with
the Loans and Letters of Credit, and is made for the sole benefit of Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and the Administrative Agent’s and the Banks’ successors and assigns. Except as provided in Sections 3.3,
11.8, 11.11, and 11.26 no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof. 
 11.14 Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’
respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep
such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to
the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action
or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any
assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available
to the Administrative Agent, any Bank, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. 
  

 -74- 








 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary
relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Bank or the Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to
maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as
such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that
(a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it
will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws. 
 11.15
Hazardous Materials Indemnity. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Banks and their respective
directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, fines, penalties, charges, administrative and judicial proceedings and orders, judgments, remedial action requirements,
enforcement actions of any kind, and all costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent that the defense of any such action has not been assumed by
Borrower), arising directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, out of (i) the presence on or under the Real Property of any Hazardous Materials, or any releases or discharges of any Hazardous Materials on, under or from the Real Property and
(ii) any activity carried on or undertaken on or off the Real Property by Borrower or any of its predecessors in title, whether prior to or during the term of this Agreement, and whether by Borrower or any predecessor in title or any employees,
agents, contractors or subcontractors of Borrower or any predecessor in title, or any third persons at any time occupying or present on the Real Property, in connection with the handling, treatment, removal, storage, decontamination, clean-up,
transport or disposal of any Hazardous Materials at any time located or present on or under the Real Property. The foregoing indemnity shall further apply to any residual contamination on or under the Real Property, or affecting any natural
resources, and to any contamination of any property or natural resources arising in connection with the generation, use, handling, storage, transport or disposal of any such Hazardous Materials, and irrespective of whether any of such activities
were or will be undertaken in accordance with applicable Laws, but the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to (i) Hazardous Materials on the Real Property, the presence of which is caused by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the
Banks or (ii) activities carried on or undertaken by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks, in each case subsequent to its or their entry into the Real Property pursuant to foreclosure under the Deed of Trust or the Auxiliary
Parking Lot Deed of Trust (but only to the extent that the same are not attributable to the Borrower). Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the
contrary, the obligations of Borrower under this Section shall be unlimited personal 

  

 -75- 








 
corporate obligations of Borrower and shall not be secured by any deed of trust on the Real Property. Borrower acknowledges that the Banks’
appraisal of the Real Property is such that the Banks are not willing to accept the consequences of inclusion of the obligations under this Section among the obligations secured by any deed of trust and that the Banks would not enter into this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby but for the personal corporate liability undertaken by Borrower for such obligations. 
 11.16 Further Assurances. Borrower shall (and shall cause its Subsidiaries to), at its sole expense and without expense to the Banks, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, do, execute and deliver such further acts and
documents as any Bank or the Administrative Agent from time to time reasonably requires for the assuring and confirming unto the Banks, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent of the rights hereby created or intended now or hereafter so to be,
or for carrying out the intention or facilitating the performance of the terms of any Loan Document. 
 11.17 Integration. This
Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any
conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Banks in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against
nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 
 11.18 Governing Law. Except to the extent
otherwise expressly provided therein, each Loan Document shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the local Laws of Nevada. 
 11.19 Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable or invalid as to any party or in any jurisdiction shall, as to that party or jurisdiction, be
inoperative, unenforceable or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions or the operation, enforceability or validity of that provision as to any other party or in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents
are declared to be severable. 
 11.20 Independent Covenants. Each covenant in Articles 5, 6 and 7 is
independent of the other covenants in those Articles; the breach of any such covenant shall not be excused by the fact that the circumstances underlying such breach would be permitted by another such covenant. 
 11.21 Headings. Article and Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are
not part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose. 
 11.22 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of
the Loan Documents. 
  

 -76- 








 11.23 Tax Withholding Exemption Certificates. At the times prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each Bank which is organized outside the United States of America shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) properly completed and duly executed
documentation required by applicable Laws to establish that payments due to such Bank under the Loan Documents may be made without withholding. Such documentation shall include, as applicable: 
 (A) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN relating to such Bank and claiming eligibility for benefits of an income
tax treaty to which the United States is a party, which benefits entitle it to complete exemption from withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Bank pursuant to this Agreement; 
 (B) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, relating to all payments to be made to such Bank by the Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement; 
 (C) in the case of a Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Bank is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the
meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or 
 (D) any other form prescribed by applicable law (or other evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) as a basis
for claiming complete exemption from United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower to determine that no withholding or deduction is
required to be made. 
 In addition, any Bank, if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not that Bank is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

 11.24 Arbitration Reference. 
 (a) Mandatory Arbitration. Any controversy or claim between or among the parties, including but not limited to those arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreements or instruments relating hereto
or delivered in connection herewith and any claim based on or arising from an alleged tort, shall at the request of any party be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the United States Arbitration Act
(Title 9, U.S. Code), notwithstanding any choice of law provision in this Agreement, and under the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitrators shall give effect to statutes of limitation in
determining any claim. Any controversy concerning whether an issue is arbitrable shall be determined by the arbitrators. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The institution and maintenance of an
action for judicial relief or pursuit of a provisional or ancillary remedy shall 

  

 -77- 








 
not constitute a waiver of the right of any party, including the plaintiff, to submit the controversy or claim to arbitration if any other party contests
such action for judicial relief. 
 (b) Real Property Collateral. Notwithstanding the provisions of
subparagraph (a), no controversy or claim shall be submitted to arbitration without the consent of all parties if, at the time of the proposed submission, such controversy or claim arises from or relates to an obligation to the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Bank which is secured by real property collateral. 
 (c) Provisional Remedies, Self-Help
and Foreclosure. No provision of this section shall limit the right of any party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies such as setoff, to foreclose against or sell any real or personal property collateral or security or to obtain
provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of a remedy does not waive the right of either party to resort to arbitration or
reference. At the Majority Banks’ option, foreclosure under a deed of trust or mortgage may be accomplished either by exercise of power of sale under the deed of trust or mortgage or by judicial foreclosure. 
 11.25 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH
PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 11.26 Purported Oral Amendments. BORROWER AND THE BANKS EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS MAY ONLY BE
AMENDED OR MODIFIED, OR THE PROVISIONS HEREOF OR THEREOF WAIVED OR SUPPLEMENTED, BY AN INSTRUMENT IN WRITING THAT COMPLIES WITH SECTION 11.2. BORROWER AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT RELY ON ANY COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR ORAL OR
WRITTEN STATEMENTS BY ANY REPRESENTATIVE OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY BANK THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH SECTION 11.2 TO EFFECT AN AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, WAIVER OR SUPPLEMENT TO THE AGREEMENT OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.
