 2. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AND SWING LOAN FACILITY 
 2.1 Commitments. 
 2.1.1 Loans. 
 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Lender severally
agrees to make Loans to the Borrower at any time or from time to time on or after the date hereof to the Expiration Date, provided, that after giving effect to such Loan the aggregate amount of Loans from such Lender shall not exceed such
Lender’s Commitment minus such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Letters of Credit Outstanding. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant
to this Section 2.1. 
 2.1.2 Swing Loan Commitment. 
 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, and in order to
facilitate loans and repayments between Settlement Dates, PNC Bank may, at its option, cancelable at any time for any reason whatsoever, make swing loans (the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrower at any time or from time to time after the date
hereof to, but not including, the Expiration Date, in an aggregate principal amount up to but not in excess of the Swing Loan Commitment, provided, that the aggregate principal amount of PNC Bank’s Swing Loans and the Loans of all the
Lenders at any one time outstanding shall not exceed the Commitments of all the Lenders. Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this
Section 2.1.2. 
 2.2 Nature of Lenders’ Obligations with Respect to Loans. 
 Each Lender shall be obligated to participate in each request for Loans pursuant to Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] in accordance with its Ratable Share.
The aggregate of each Lender’s Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrower at any time shall never exceed its Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the Letters of Credit Outstanding. The obligations of 

  

 27 








 
each Lender hereunder are several. The failure of any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrower to any
other party nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder. The Lenders shall have no obligation to make Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date. 
 2.3 Commitment Fees. 
 Accruing from
the date hereof until the Expiration Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, as consideration for such Lender’s Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to
the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed) on the average daily difference between the amount of (i) such Lender’s Commitment as the same may be
constituted from time to time (for purposes of this computation, PNC Bank’s Swing Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Commitment) and the (ii) the sum of such Lender’s Loans outstanding plus its Ratable Share of
Letters of Credit Outstanding. All Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each April, July, October and January after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Loans. 
 2.4 Swing Loan Requests. 
 Except as
otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request PNC Bank to make Swing Loans by delivery to PNC Bank not later than 1:00 p.m. Pittsburgh time on the proposed Borrowing Date of a duly completed
request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4 hereto or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex (each, a “Swing Loan Request”), it being understood that the Agent may rely on
the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Swing Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed Borrowing Date and the principal amount of
such Swing Loan, which shall be not less than $100,000. 
 2.5 Loan Requests. 
 Except as otherwise provided herein, the Borrower may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Lenders to make Loans, or renew or
convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Loans pursuant to Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], by delivering to the Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed
Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies or the conversion to or the renewal of the Euro-Rate Option for any Loans; and (ii) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the
making of a Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of
Exhibit 2.5 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, facsimile or telex in such form (each, a “Loan Request”), it being understood that the Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making
such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation. Each Loan Request shall be 

  

 28 








 
irrevocable and shall specify (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche,
which shall be in integral multiples of $1,000,000 and not less than $3,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies and not less than the lesser of $100,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to which
the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the Euro-Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the applicable Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option
applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche. 
 2.6 Making Loans and Swing Loans.

 2.6.1 Making Loans. 
 The Agent shall, promptly after receipt by it of a Loan Request pursuant to Section 2.5 [Loan Requests], notify the Lenders of its receipt of such Loan Request specifying: (i) the proposed Borrowing Date and
the time and method of disbursement of the Loans requested thereby; (ii) the amount and type of each such Loan and the applicable Interest Period (if any); and (iii) the apportionment among the Lenders of such Loans as determined by the
Agent in accordance with Section 2.2 [Nature of Lenders’ Obligations]. Each Lender shall remit the principal amount of each Loan to the Agent such that the Agent is able to, and the Agent shall, to the extent the Lenders have made funds
available to it for such purpose and subject to Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan], fund such Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on the applicable
Borrowing Date; provided, that if any Lender fails to remit such funds to the Agent in a timely manner, the Agent may elect in its sole discretion to fund with its own funds the Loans of such Lender on such Borrowing Date, and such Lender
shall be subject to the repayment obligation in Section 9.16 [Availability of Funds]. 
 2.6.2 Making Swing
Loans. 
 So long as PNC Bank elects to make Swing Loans, PNC Bank shall, after receipt by it of a Swing Loan Request
pursuant to Section 2.4, fund such Swing Loan to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Principal Office prior to 2:00 p.m. Pittsburgh time on the Borrowing Date. 
 2.7 Notes; Swing Loan Note. 
 The
Obligation of the Borrower to repay the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans made to it by each Lender, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a face amount equal to the
Commitment of such Lender. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Swing Loans made to it by PNC Bank together with interest thereon shall be evidenced by a demand promissory note of the Borrower in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1(S)(2) payable to the order of PNC Bank in a face amount equal to the Swing Loan Commitment. 
  

 29 








 2.8 Borrowings to Repay Swing Loans. 
 PNC Bank may, at its option, exercisable at any time for any reason whatsoever, demand repayment of the Swing Loans, and each Lender shall make a Loan in
an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swing Loans, plus, if PNC Bank so requests, accrued interest thereon; provided, that no Lender shall be obligated in any event to make
Loans in excess of its Commitment. Loans made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall bear interest at the Base Rate Option and shall be deemed to have been properly requested in accordance with Section 2.5 without regard to any of the
requirements of that provision. PNC Bank shall provide notice to the Lenders (which may be telephonic or written notice by letter, facsimile or telex) that such Loans are to be made under this Section 2.8 and of the apportionment among the
Lenders, and the Lenders shall be unconditionally obligated to fund such Loans (whether or not the conditions specified in Section 6.2 are then satisfied) by the time PNC Bank so requests, which shall not be earlier than 3:00 p.m. Pittsburgh
time on the Business Day next after the date the Lenders receive such notice from PNC Bank. 
 2.9 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

 2.9.1 Issuance of Letters of Credit. 
 The Borrower, if applicable, may request the issuance of a letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) on behalf of itself or
another Loan Party by delivering or having such other Loan Party deliver to the Agent a completed application and agreement for letters of credit in such form as the Agent may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time,
at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Agent, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Each Letter of Credit issued under this Section shall be a Standby Letter of Credit. Subject to the terms
and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.9, the Agent or any of the Agent’s Affiliates will issue a Letter of Credit provided, that each Letter of Credit shall
(A) have a maximum maturity of twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) in no event expire later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Expiration Date and providing that in no event shall (i) the Letters of
Credit Outstanding exceed, at any one time, $10,000,000 or (ii) the Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Commitments. Schedule 2.9.1 sets forth letters of credit, issued by Agent and the Agent’s Affiliates as an “issuing
bank” under the Prior Credit Agreement, which are outstanding as of the Closing Date (the “Existing Letters of Credit”). It is expressly agreed that the Existing Letters of Credit are Letters of Credit under this Agreement.

 2.9.2 Letter of Credit Fees. 
 The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to
the Euro-Rate Margin, and (ii) to the Agent for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed), which fees shall be computed on the daily average Letters of
Credit Outstanding and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the first day of each April, July, October and January following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date. The Borrower shall also pay to the Agent for
the Agent’s sole account the 

  

 30 








 
Agent’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Agent may generally charge or
incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit. 
 2.9.3 Disbursements, Reimbursement. 
 2.9.3.1 Immediately upon the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Agent a participation in such Letter of Credit
and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. 
 2.9.3.2 In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Agent will
promptly notify the Borrower. Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrower shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Agent shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Agent prior to 12:00
noon, Pittsburgh time on each date that an amount is paid by the Agent under any Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the amount so paid by the Agent. In the event the Borrower fails to reimburse the
Agent for the full amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the Drawing Date, the Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Loans be made by the
Lenders under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan]
other than any notice requirements. Any notice given by the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.9.3.2 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided, that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 2.9.3.3 Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.9.3.2
make available to the Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Lenders shall (subject to Section 2.9.3.4) each be deemed to have made a Loan under the
Base Rate Option to the Borrower in that amount. If any Lender so notified fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the Agent the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time on
the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Drawing Date to the date on which such Lender makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate
during the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date. The Agent will promptly give notice of
the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Agent to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Lender from its obligation under this
Section 2.9.3.3. 
  

 31 








 2.9.3.4 With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Loans under
the Base Rate Option to the Borrower in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.9.3.2, because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 [Each Additional Loan] other than any notice
requirements or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Agent a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in the amount of such drawing. Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on
demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Loans under the Base Rate Option. Each Lender’s payment to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.9.3.3 shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of
its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.9.3. 
 2.9.4 Repayment of Participation Advances. 
 2.9.4.1 Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for its account of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in
reimbursement of any payment made by the Agent under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Lender has made a Participation Advance to the Agent, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Agent under such a Letter of
Credit, the Agent will pay to each Lender, in the same funds as those received by the Agent, the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Agent shall retain the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Lender that
did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by Agent. 
 2.9.4.2 If the Agent is required at any time to
return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.9.4.1 in reimbursement of a payment
made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Lender shall, on demand of the Agent, forthwith return to the Agent the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Agent plus interest thereon from the date such
demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Lender to the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time. 
 2.9.5 Documentation. 
 Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Agent’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Agent’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit,
though such interpretation may be different from such Loan Party’s own. In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of
gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agent shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any
modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. 
  

 32 








 2.9.6 Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests. 
 In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Agent shall be
responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. 
 2.9.7 Nature of Participation and Reimbursement Obligations. 
 Each Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Loans or Participation Advances, as contemplated by
Section 2.9.3, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and the Obligations of the Borrower to reimburse the Agent upon a draw under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly
in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.9 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances: 
 (i)
any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Agent or any of its Affiliates, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; 
 (ii) the failure of any Loan Party or any other Person to comply, in connection with a Letter of Credit Borrowing, with the conditions set
forth in Section 2.1 [Commitments], 2.5 [Loan Requests], 2.6 [Making Loans] or 6.2 [Each Additional Loan] or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement for the making of a Loan, it being acknowledged that such conditions are not required for the
making of a Letter of Credit Borrowing and the obligation of the Lenders to make Participation Advances under Section 2.9.3; 
 (iii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) any claim of breach of warranty that
might be made by any Loan Party or any Lender against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, crossclaim, defense or other right which any Loan Party or any Lender may have at any time
against a beneficiary, successor beneficiary any transferee or assignee of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Agent or its Affiliates or any Lender or any other Person or,
whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of
Credit was procured); 
 (v) the lack of power or authority of any signer of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or
endorsement on) or the form of or lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of any draft, demand, instrument, certificate or other document presented under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or
alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit, or the transport of any property or 

  

 33 








 
provisions of services relating to a Letter of Credit, in each case even if the Agent or any of the Agent’s Affiliates has been notified thereof;

 (vi) payment by the Agent or any of its Affiliates under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or
certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
 (vii) the solvency of, or any
acts of omissions by, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other Person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit, or the existence, nature, quality, quantity, condition, value or other characteristic
of any property or services relating to a Letter of Credit; 
 (viii) any failure by the Agent or any of Agent’s
Affiliates to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by any Loan Party, unless the Agent has received written notice from such Loan Party of such failure within three Business Days after the Agent shall have furnished such Loan Party a
copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material and no drawing has been made thereon prior to receipt of such notice; 
 (ix) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Loan Party or Subsidiaries of a Loan Party; 
 (x) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any party thereto; 
 (xi) the occurrence or continuance of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Loan Party; 
 (xii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (xiii) the fact that the Expiration Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated and

 (xiv) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 2.9.8 Indemnity. 
 In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.5 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by the Borrower], the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Agent and any of
Agent’s Affiliates that has issued a Letter of Credit from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, taxes, penalties, interest, judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and
disbursements of counsel) which the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (i) the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Agent as determined by a final judgment 

  

 34 








 
of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) the wrongful dishonor by the Agent or any of Agent’s Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made
under any Letter of Credit, except if such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called
“Governmental Acts”). 
 2.9.9 Liability for Acts and Omissions. 
 As between any Loan Party and the Agent, or the Agent’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of,
or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent shall not be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any
Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter
of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or
sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any
reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any
other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions,
interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the
transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing
under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates, as applicable, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent
the vesting of, any of the Agent’s or the Agent’s Affiliates rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Agent from liability for the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection
with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence. In no event shall the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive,
exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other
communication believed in good faith by the Agent or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face to
comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court 

  

 35 








 
order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such
presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Agent or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement
(even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit;
(v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Agent or its Affiliate in any
way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of
Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit. 
 In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Agent
or the Agent’s Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Agent or the Agent’s Affiliates under any
resulting liability to the Borrower or any Lender. 
 2.10 Increase in Commitments. 
 2.10.1 Increasing Lenders and New Lenders. 
 The Borrower may, at any time prior to the earlier of (i) a request for a Reduction of Commitment pursuant to Section 4.4.4 or
(ii) the Expiration Date, make a maximum of three separate requests that (a) the current Lenders (each an “Existing Lender” and collectively, the “Existing Lenders”) increase their Commitments (any Existing Lender which
elects to increase its Commitment shall be referred to as an “Increasing Lender”) or (b) one or more new banks (each a “New Lender”) join this Agreement and provide a Commitment hereunder, subject to the following terms and
conditions: 
 (i) No Obligation to Increase. No Existing Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment and any
increase in the Commitment by any Existing Lender shall be in the sole discretion of such Existing Lender; 
 (ii)
Defaults. There shall exist no Event of Default or Potential Default on the effective date of such increase (each such date, a “Commitment Increase Date”) after giving effect to such increase;

(b) the aggregate amount of all increases since the Closing Date shall not exceed $100,000,000; 
  

 36 








 (iv) Minimum Increases; Minimum Commitments; Integral Multiples. Each such request
shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000; 
 (v) Resolutions; Opinion. The Loan Parties shall deliver to the Agent
on or before the Commitment Increase Date the following documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent: (1) certifications of their corporate secretaries with attached resolutions certifying that the increase in the
Commitment has been approved by such Loan Parties, and (2) an opinion of counsel addressed to the Agent and the Lenders addressing the authorization and execution of the Loan Documents by, and enforceability of the Loan Documents against, the
Loan Parties; 
 (vi) Notes. The Borrower shall execute and deliver (a) to each Increasing Lender a replacement
Note reflecting the new amount of such Increasing Lender’s Commitment after giving effect to the increase (and the prior Note issued to such Increasing Lender shall be deemed to be terminated and replaced) and (b) to each New Lender a Note
reflecting the amount of such New Lender’s Commitment; 
 (vii) Approval. The Agent shall have approved of (based
on Agent’s reasonable satisfaction with) the Increasing Lender or New Lender, as the case may be, that is providing such increase and the amount of the increase by each such Increasing Lender or New Lender; 
 (viii) Increasing Lenders. If any portion of the increase in Commitments is being provided by one or more Increasing Lenders, then
such Increasing Lenders shall confirm their agreement to increase their Commitment pursuant to a Commitment Increase Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.10(A) signed by them, the Agent and the Loan Parties and delivered to the Agent at
least five (5) Business Day before the Commitment Increase Date and 
 (ix) New Lenders —Joinder. If the
Borrower desires that one or more New Lenders provide all or a portion of such increase in Commitments, then such New Lender, the Loan Parties and the Agent shall execute a Lender Joinder and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit
2.10(B), pursuant to which the New Lender shall join and become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents effective on the Commitment Increase Date with a Commitment in the amount set forth in Schedule 1.1(B) to such Lender
Joinder and Assumption Agreement. 
 2.10.2 Treatment of Outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit. 
 2.10.2.1 Repayment of Outstanding Loans, Borrowing of New Loans. 
 On the Commitment Increase Date, the Borrower shall repay all outstanding Loans, subject to the Borrower’s indemnity obligations
under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity], provided, that it may borrow new Loans with a Borrowing Date on the Commitment Increase Date and, provided further, that the Borrower and the Agent shall use reasonable efforts 

  

 37 








 
to try to minimize amounts payable on account of Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity]. Each of the Lenders shall
participate in any new Loans made on or after the Commitment Increase Date in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares after giving effect to the increase in Commitments contemplated by this Section 2.10.2.1. 
 2.10.2.2 Outstanding Letters of Credit. 
 On each Commitment Increase Date, each Increasing Lender and each New Lender (a) will be deemed to have purchased a participation in
each then outstanding Letter of Credit equal to its Ratable Share of each such Letter of Credit and the participation of each other Lender in each such Letter of Credit shall be adjusted accordingly and (b) will acquire, (and will pay to the
Agent, for the account of each Lender, in immediately available funds) an amount equal to its Ratable Share of all outstanding Participation Advances. 
 3. INTEREST RATES 
 3.1 Interest Rate Options. 
 The Borrower shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by the Borrower from the Base Rate Option
or Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the
Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche; provided, that there shall not be at any one time
outstanding more than seven (7) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans, and, provided further, that only the Base Rate Option shall apply to the Swing Loans. If at any time the designated rate applicable to any
Loan made by any Lender exceeds such Lender’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Lender’s Loan shall be limited to such Lender’s highest lawful rate. 
 3.1.1 Interest Rate Options. 
 The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Loans (subject to the provisions above regarding Swing Loans): 
 (i) Base Rate Option: A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and
actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate or 
 (ii) Euro-Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the
Euro-Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
  

 38 








 3.1.2 Rate Quotations. 
 The Borrower may call the Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the rates
then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Agent or the Lenders nor affect the rate of interest which thereafter is actually in effect when the election is made. 
 3.2 Interest Periods. 
 At any time
when the Borrower shall select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option, the Borrower shall notify the Agent thereof at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Euro-Rate Option by delivering a Loan Request. The notice
shall specify an Interest Period during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following provisions shall apply to any selection of, renewal of, or conversion to a Euro-Rate Option: 
 3.2.1 Renewals. 
 In the case of the renewal of a Euro-Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of
interest for such day. 
 3.3 Interest After Default. 
 To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived: 
 3.3.1 Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate. 
 The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest for each Loan otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.9.2 [Letter of Credit
Fees] or Section 3.1 [Interest Rate Options], respectively, shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the interest applicable under the Revolving Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum; and 
 3.3.2 Other Obligations. 
 Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from
the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is paid in full; and 
 3.3.3 Acknowledgment. 

The Borrower acknowledges that the increase in rates referred to in this Section 3.3 reflects, among other things, the fact that
such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Lenders are entitled to additional 

  

 39 








 
compensation for such risk; and all such interest shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand by Agent. 
 3.4 Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. 
 3.4.1 Unascertainable. 
 If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Agent shall have determined that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate or (ii) a contingency
has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the Euro-Rate, then the Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 3.4.3. 
 3.4.2 Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available. 
 If at any time any Lender shall have determined that: 
 (i) the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by
compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or 
 (ii) such Euro-Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of the establishment or maintenance of any such
Loan, or 
 (iii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars for the relevant Interest
Period for a Loan, or to banks generally, to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, respectively, are not available to such Lender with respect to such Loan, or to banks generally, in the interbank eurodollar market, then the Agent shall have the rights
specified in Section 3.4.3. 
 3.4.3 Agent’s and Lender’s Rights. 
 In the case of any event specified in Section 3.4.1 above, the Agent shall promptly so notify the Lenders and the Borrower thereof,
and in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4.2 above, such Lender shall promptly so notify the Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Agent shall promptly send copies of
such notice and certificate to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (i) the Lenders, in the case of such
notice given by the Agent, or (ii) such Lender, in the case of such notice given by such Lender, to allow the Borrower to select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option shall be suspended until the Agent shall have later notified the Borrower,
or such Lender shall have later notified the Agent, of the Agent’s or such Lender’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. If at any time the Agent makes a
determination under Section 3.4.1 and the Borrower has 

  

 40 








 
previously notified the Agent of its selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Euro-Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect,
such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans. If any Lender notifies the Agent of a determination under Section 3.4.2, on the date
specified in such notice, the Borrower shall, subject to the Borrower’s indemnification Obligations under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity], as to any Loan of the Lender to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, either convert such Loan to the Base
Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 4.4 [Voluntary Prepayments]. Absent due notice from the Borrower of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to
the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date. 
 3.5 Selection of Interest Rate
Options. 
 If the Borrower fails to select a new Interest Period to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option at
the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.2 [Interest Periods], the Borrower shall be deemed to have converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Base Rate
Option commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period. 
 4. PAYMENTS 
 4.1 Payments 
 4.1.1
Payment Requirements. 
 All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees,
Letter of Credit Fees, Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder shall be payable prior to 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue. Such payments shall be made to the Agent at the Principal Office for the account of PNC
Bank with respect to the Swing Loans and for the ratable accounts of the Lenders with respect to the Loans in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, and the Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Lenders in immediately
available funds; provided, that in the event payments are received by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, by the Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Lenders on the same day received by the Agent, the Agent
shall pay the Lenders the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Agent and not distributed to the Lenders. The Agent’s and each Lender’s statement of account, ledger or other
relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement and shall be deemed an “account stated.”

  

 41 








 4.2 Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders. 
 Each borrowing shall be allocated to each Lender according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate
Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrower with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees or other fees (except for the Agent’s Fee) or amounts due from the Borrower hereunder to the Lenders with respect
to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights] in the case of an event specified in Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Etc.], 4.4.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or 4.6 [Additional
Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Lender and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Lender. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing,
each borrowing or payment or prepayment by the Borrower of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrower with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC Bank according to Section 2. 
 4.3 Interest Payment Dates. 
 Interest
on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on the first day of each April, July, October and January after the date hereof and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Notes. Interest on Loans to
which the Euro-Rate Option applies shall be due and payable on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) Months, also on the 90th day of such Interest Period. Interest on
mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 4.5 [Mandatory Prepayments] shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due. Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable on
demand after such principal amount or other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise). 
 4.4 Voluntary Prepayments. 
 4.4.1 Right to Prepay. 
 The Borrower shall have the right at its option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except
as provided in Section 4.4.2 below or in Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]): 
 (i) at
any time with respect to any Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies; 
 (ii) on the last day of the applicable Interest
Period with respect to Loans to which a Euro-Rate Option applies and 
 (iii) on the date specified in a notice by any Lender
pursuant to Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] with respect to any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies. 
  

 42 








 Whenever the Borrower desires to prepay any part of the Loans, the Borrower shall provide
a prepayment notice to the Agent by 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of prepayment of the Loans or not later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans, setting forth the following
information: 
 (x) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; 
 (y) a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Swing Loans and the Loans; and 
 (z) the total principal amount of such prepayment, which shall not be less than (1) $100,000 for any Swing Loan or Loans to which a
Base Rate Option applies and (2) $1,000,000 for any Loans to which a Euro-Rate Option applies. 
 All prepayment notices shall be
irrevocable. The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount except with respect to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, shall be due and payable on the date specified
in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. Except as provided in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s rights], if the Borrower prepays a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing
Tranche which the Borrower is prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied first to Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies. Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrower’s
Obligation to indemnify the Lenders under Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity]. 
 4.4.2 Replacement of a Lender.

 In the event any Lender (i) gives notice under Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] or
Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.], (ii) does not fund Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Lender, (iii) becomes a Nonconsenting Lender or (iv) becomes subject to the control of
an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), then the Borrower shall have the right at its option, with the consent of the Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to prepay the Loans of such Lender in whole, together with
all interest accrued thereon, and terminate such Lender’s Commitment within ninety (90) days after (w) receipt of such Lender’s notice under Section 3.4 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable, Etc.] or 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.],
(x) the date such Lender has failed to fund Loans because the making of such Loans would contravene Law applicable to such Lender, (y) such Lender becomes a Nonconsenting Lender or (z) the date such Lender became subject to the
control of an Official Body, as applicable; provided, that the Borrower shall also pay to such Lender at the time of such prepayment any amounts required under Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] and any
accrued interest due on such amount and any related fees; provided, however, that the Commitment of such Lender shall be provided by one or more of the remaining Lenders or a replacement bank acceptable to the Agent; provided
further, the remaining Lenders shall have no obligation hereunder to increase their Commitments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent may only be replaced subject to 

  

 43 








 
the requirements of Section 9.14 [Successor Agent] and provided, that all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated or replaced or
cash-collateralized. 
 4.4.3 Change of Lending Office. 
 Each Lender agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under Section 3.4.2
[Illegality, Etc.] or 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.] with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any
Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event; provided, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence
of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 4.4.3 shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the rights of the Agent or any Lender provided in this
Agreement. 
 4.4.4 Reduction of Commitment. 
 The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent
to permanently and ratably reduce, in whole multiples of $1,000,000 of principal, or terminate the Commitments without penalty or premium, except as hereinafter set forth, provided, that any such reduction or termination shall be accompanied
by (i) the payment in full of any Commitment Fee and other fees then accrued on the amount of such reduction or termination and (ii) prepayment of the Notes (together with cash collateralization, if necessary, of the Letters of Credit),
together with the full amount of interest accrued on the principal sum to be prepaid (and all amounts referred to in Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]), to the extent that the aggregate amount thereof then
outstanding exceeds the Commitments as so reduced or terminated. From the effective date of any such reduction or termination, the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Commitment Fee shall correspondingly be reduced or cease, as the case may be.

 4.5 Mandatory Prepayments. 
 4.5.1 Sale of Assets. 
 Promptly after the receipt of proceeds from any sale, lease or
transfer of assets authorized by Section 7.2.7(v) (which are not reinvested in the time period set forth therein), the Borrower shall promptly make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Loans, subject to the terms in Section 4.5.5,
equal to the net after-tax proceeds of such sale (as estimated in good faith by the Borrower) (the “Sale Proceeds”). 
 4.5.2 Debt or Equity Offering. 
 Within five (5) Business Days of (i) any receipt of any funds
resulting from additional member interests being issued in any Loan Party or partnership interests being issued in Parent (other than the issuance of the Parent’s equity interests in connection with a Permitted Acquisition) or (ii) any
proceeds of Indebtedness incurred by any of the Loan Parties 

  

 44 








 
other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 7.2.1, the Borrower shall promptly make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Loans, subject to the
terms in Section 4.5.5, equal to the net after-tax proceeds of such equity or debt offering (as estimated in good faith by the Borrower) unless such proceeds are promptly used for making a prepayment on Indebtedness of the type described in
Section 7.2.1(viii). 
 4.5.3 Insurance or Condemnation Proceeds. 
 Within one hundred eighty (180) days of any receipt of insurance or condemnation proceeds, which individually or in the aggregate,
involve more than $10,000,000 in any fiscal year, subject to the ability of the Loan Parties to reinvest such proceeds (the “Insurance Proceeds”), the Borrower shall have reinvested the after-tax proceeds of such Insurance Proceeds in
replacement or substitute assets or the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Loans equal to the net after-tax proceeds of such Insurance Proceeds. 
 4.5.4 Purchase Price Adjustment. 
 Within one hundred eighty (180) days of any receipt of funds resulting from any purchase price adjustment involving more than $10,000,000 on account of any Permitted Acquisition (a “Purchase Price
Adjustment”), the Borrower shall make a mandatory prepayment of principal on the Loans, subject to the terms in Section 4.5.5, equal to the net after-tax proceeds of such Purchase Price Adjustment. 
 4.5.5 Application of Prepayments on and Reduction in Commitments. 
 To the extent that the cumulative, aggregate amount of Sale Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and Purchase Price Adjustments received by the
Loan Parties exceeds 10% of Consolidated Assets, all proceeds of the foregoing shall be promptly applied to (i) prepay the Loans, and (ii) the Commitments shall be automatically and irrevocably reduced by the principal amount so prepaid
under clause (i) above. 
 4.5.6 Application Among Interest Rate Options. 
 All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 4.5 shall first be applied to the principal amount of the Loans subject to the Base
Rate Option and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, then to Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option and accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In accordance with Section 4.6.2 [Indemnity], the Borrower shall indemnify the Lenders for any loss or
expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period. 
  

 45 








 4.6 Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances. 
 4.6.1 Increased Costs or Reduced Return Resulting from Taxes, Reserves, Capital Adequacy Requirements, Expenses, Etc. 

If any Law, guideline or interpretation or any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official
Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any central bank or other Official Body: 
 (i) subjects any Lender to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans or payments by
the Borrower of principal, interest, Commitment Fees or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes (except for taxes on the overall net income of such Lender), 
 (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against credits or commitments to extend
credit extended by, or assets (funded or contingent) of, deposits with or for the account of, or other acquisitions of funds by, any Lender or 
 (iii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy or similar requirement (A) against assets (funded or contingent) of, or letters of credit, other credits or commitments to extend credit extended
by, any Lender or (B) otherwise applicable to the obligations of any Lender under this Agreement, 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to
increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including loss of margin) upon any Lender with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or the making, maintenance or funding of any part of the Loans (or, in the case of any
capital adequacy or similar requirement, to have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital, taking into consideration such Lender’s customary policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount which such Lender
in its sole discretion deems to be material, such Lender shall from time to time notify the Borrower and the Agent of the amount determined in good faith (using any averaging and attribution methods employed in good faith) by such Lender to be
necessary to compensate such Lender for such increase in cost, reduction of income, additional expense or reduced rate of return. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable
by the Borrower to such Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given. 
 4.6.2 Indemnity. 

In addition to the compensation required by Section 4.6.1 [Increased Costs, Etc.], the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender
against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Lender to fund or
maintain Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option) which such Lender sustains or incurs as a consequence of any 
  

 46 








 (i) payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option
applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due), 
 (ii) attempt by the Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any Loan Requests under
Section 2.5 [Loan Requests] or Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] or notice relating to prepayments under Section 4.4 [Voluntary Prepayments] or 
 (iii) default by any Loan Party in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrower to pay when due (by
acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder. 
 If any Lender sustains or incurs any
such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination may include such assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as
such Lender shall deem reasonable) to be necessary to indemnify such Lender for such loss or expense. Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination. Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to such
Lender ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given. 
 4.7 Settlement Date Procedures. 
 In order to minimize the transfer of funds between the Lenders and the Agent, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Loans and PNC Bank may
make Swing Loans as provided in Section 2.6.2 hereof during the period between Settlement Dates. Not later than 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on each Settlement Date, the Agent shall notify each Lender of its Ratable Share of the total of the
Loans and the Swing Loans (each a “Required Share”). Prior to 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on such Settlement Date, each Lender shall pay to the Agent the amount equal to the difference between its Required Share and its Loans, and the
Agent shall pay to each Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Agent with respect to the Loans. The Agent shall also effect settlement in accordance with the foregoing sentence on the proposed Borrowing Dates for Loans
and on mandatory prepayment dates hereunder and may at its option effect settlement on any other Business Day. These settlement procedures are established solely as a matter of administrative convenience, and nothing contained in this
Section 4.7 shall relieve the Lenders of their obligations to fund Loans on dates other than a Settlement Date pursuant to Section 2.8. The Agent may at any time at its option for any reason whatsoever require each Lender to pay
immediately to the Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of the outstanding Loans and each Lender may at any time require the Agent to pay immediately to such Lender its Ratable Share of all payments made by the Borrower to the Agent with respect
to the Loans.

subject or which are asserted against it, promptly as and when the same shall become due and payable, including all taxes, assessments and governmental charges upon it or any of its properties, assets, income or profits, prior to the date on which

appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be required by GAAP shall have been made, but only to the extent that failure to discharge any such liabilities would not result in a Material Adverse Change.

of attorney is coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable for the terms of this Agreement and all transactions hereunder. All costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the exercise of the rights under this Section shall be
paid by the Loan Parties on demand of the Agent. The Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agent agree that without any further action on the part of any of them, upon execution and/or delivery, the Security Documents and the Ancillary Security

as Agent for such Lender under this Agreement and to execute and deliver or accept on behalf of each of the Lenders the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of a Note shall be
deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein, and to exercise such powers and to perform
such duties hereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. PNC Bank agrees to act as the Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the extent provided
in this Agreement. 
 9.2 Delegation of Duties. 
 The Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees (provided such delegation does not constitute a relinquishment of its duties as Agent) and, subject to Sections 9.5

covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist. The duties of the Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Agent shall not have by reason of this
Agreement a fiduciary or trust relationship in respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as
expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of 

  

 84 








 
the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied
(or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting
parties. Each Lender expressly acknowledges (i) that the Agent has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender; (ii) that it has made and will continue to make, without reliance upon the Agent, its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs and its own
appraisal of the creditworthiness of each of the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement and the making and continuance of the Loans hereunder and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, that the Agent shall have no duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of any Loan or at any time or times thereafter.

 The Agent agrees, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, to take or refrain from taking any action of the type specified as being within the
Agent’s rights, powers or discretion herein, provided, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable
Law. In the absence of a request by the Required Lenders, the Agent shall have authority, in its sole discretion, to take or not to take any such action, unless this Agreement specifically requires the consent of the Required Lenders or all of the
Lenders. Any action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions or discretion shall be binding on the Lenders, subject to Section 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.]. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.6, no Lender shall have
any right of action whatsoever against the Agent as a result of the Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, or in the absence of such instructions, in the absolute discretion of
the Agent.

out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements, including fees and expenses of counsel (including the out-of-pocket expenses of staff counsel), appraisers and environmental consultants, incurred by the Agent (i) in connection with the

Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided, that the Borrower shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements if the same results from
the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the
extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrower) or if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition,
the Borrower agrees to reimburse and pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent’s regular employees and agents engaged to perform (y) one annual audit of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties in the
absence of an Event of Default, and (z) additional audits of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties during the continuance of an Event of Default. 
 9.6 Exculpatory Provisions; Limitation of Liability. 
 Neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall (a) be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder, or in
connection herewith including pursuant to any Loan Document, unless caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for the effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness,
validity or the due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or for any recital, representation, warranty, document, certificate, report or statement herein or made or furnished under or in connection with this Agreement or any other
Loan Documents or (c) be under any obligation to any of the Lenders to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof or thereof on the part of the Loan Parties, or the financial
condition of the Loan Parties, or the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Potential Default. No claim may be made by any of the Loan Parties, any Lender, the Agent or any of their respective Subsidiaries against the Agent, any
Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates, or any of them, for any special, indirect or consequential damages or, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, for any punitive damages in respect of
any claim or cause of action (whether based on contract, tort, statutory liability, or any other ground) based on, arising out of or related to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission or event occurring in
connection therewith, including the negotiation, documentation, administration or collection of the Loans, and each of the Loan Parties (for itself and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries), the Agent and each Lender hereby waive, releases and
agree never to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether such claim now exists or hereafter arises and whether or not it is now known or suspected to exist in its favor. Each Lender agrees that, except for notices, reports and other documents
expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder or given to the Agent for the account of or with copies for the Lenders, the Agent and each of its directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates shall not
have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with an credit or other information concerning the business, operations, 

  

 86 








 
property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its
directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys or Affiliates. 
 9.7 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by Lenders.

 Each Lender agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Agent (to the extent required to be, but not reimbursed by the Borrower and without
limiting the Obligation of the Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share determined at the time any such claim is asserted from and against all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements (including the allocated costs of staff counsel), and costs of appraisers and environmental consultants, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against the Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided, that no Lender shall
be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (a) if the same results from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct,
(b) if such Lender was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that such Lender shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a
loss to the Lender) or (c) if the same results from a compromise and settlement agreement entered into without the consent of such Lender, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. In addition, each Lender agrees promptly upon demand to
reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the Obligation of the Borrower to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share for all amounts due and payable by the Borrower to the Agent in connection with the
Agent’s periodic audit of the Loan Parties’ books, records and business properties. 
 9.8 Reliance by Agent. 
 The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any writing, telegram, telex or teletype message, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, letter, cablegram,
statement, order or other document or conversation by telephone or otherwise believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon the advice and opinions of counsel and other
professional advisers selected by the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense
which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 
 9.9 Notice of Default. 
 The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received
written notice from a Lender or the Borrower or any other Loan Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” 
  

 87 








 9.10 Notices. 
 The Agent shall promptly send to each Lender a copy of all notices received from the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents promptly upon receipt
thereof. The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the other Lenders of each change in the Base Rate and the effective date thereof. 
 9.11 Lenders in Their Individual Capacities; Agent in its Individual Capacity. 
 With respect to its Commitment, and the
Loans made by it and any other rights and powers given to it as a Lender hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not the Agent, and the term “Lender” and “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Agent in its individual capacity. PNC Bank and its Affiliates and each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates
may, without liability to account, except as prohibited herein, make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, acquire equity interests in, accept deposits from, discount drafts for, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally
engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with, the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, in the case of the Agent, as though it were not acting as Agent hereunder and in the case of each Lender, as though
such Lender were not a Lender hereunder, in each case without notice to or consent of the other Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Agent or its Affiliates may (i) receive information regarding the Loan
Parties or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties or such Subsidiary or Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to
provide such information to them and (ii) accept fees and other consideration from the Loan Parties for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders. 
 9.12 Holders of Notes. 
 The Agent may
deem and treat any payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who at the
time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor. 

9.13 Equalization of Lenders. 
 The
Lenders and the holders of any participations in any Notes agree among themselves that, with respect to all amounts received by any Lender or any such holder for application on any Obligation hereunder or under any Note or under any such
participation, whether received by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or by any other non-pro rata source, equitable adjustment will be made in the manner
stated in the following sentence so that, in effect, all such 

  

 88 








 
excess amounts will be shared ratably among the Lenders and such holders in proportion to their interests in payments under the Notes, except as otherwise
provided in Section 3.4.3 [Agent’s and Lender’s Rights], 4.4.2 [Replacement of a Lender] or 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]. The Lenders or any such holder receiving any such amount shall purchase for cash from
each of the other Lenders an interest in such Lender’s Loans in such amount as shall result in a ratable participation by the Lenders and each such holder in the aggregate unpaid amount under the Notes; provided, that if all or any
portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from the Lender or the holder making such purchase, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if
any, required by law (including court order) to be paid by the Lender or the holder making such purchase. 
 9.14 Successor Agent.

 The Agent (i) may resign as Agent or (ii) shall resign if such resignation is requested by the Required Lenders (if the Agent is
a Lender, the Agent’s Loans and its Commitment shall be considered in determining whether the Required Lenders have requested such resignation) or required by Section 4.4.2 [Replacement of a Lender], in either case of (i) or
(ii) by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower. If the Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for
the Lenders, subject to the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Agent’s notice to
the Lenders of its resignation, then the Agent shall appoint, with the consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, a successor agent who shall serve as Agent until such time as the Required Lenders appoint and the Borrower
consents to the appointment of a successor agent. Upon its appointment pursuant to either clause (a) or (b) above, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean
such successor agent, effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this
Agreement. After the resignation of any Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to the benefit of such former Agent and such former Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability for
any actions taken or not taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement. 
 9.15 Agent’s Fee. 
 The Borrower shall pay to the Agent a nonrefundable fee (the “Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of a letter (the “Agent’s
Letter”) between the Borrower and Agent, as amended from time to time. 
 9.16 Availability of Funds. 
 The Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make the proceeds of a Loan available to the Agent unless the Agent shall have been notified by
such Lender on or before the later of (1) the close of Business on the Business Day preceding the Borrowing Date 

  

 89 








 
with respect to such Loan or two (2) hours before the time on which the Agent actually funds the proceeds of such Loan to the Borrower (whether using
its own funds pursuant to this Section 9.16 or using proceeds deposited with the Agent by the Lenders and whether such funding occurs before or after the time on which Lenders are required to deposit the proceeds of such Loan with the Agent).
The Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Lender, the Agent shall be
entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender (or, if such Lender fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand from the Borrower) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date
such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on the date the Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three (3) days after such interest shall begin to
accrue and (ii) the applicable interest rate in respect of such Loan after the end of such three-day period. 
 9.17
Calculations. 
 In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Agent shall not be liable for any error in computing the
amount payable to any Lender whether in respect of the Loans, fees or any other amounts due to the Lenders under this Agreement. In the event an error in computing any amount payable to any Lender is made, the Agent, the Borrower, and each affected
Lender shall, forthwith upon discovery of such error, make such adjustments as shall be required to correct such error, and any compensation therefor will be calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 
 9.18 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. 
 Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or
assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or
replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents
or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the
CIP Regulations or such other Laws. 
 9.19 Beneficiaries. 
 Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and the Loan Parties
shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not 

  

 90 








 
be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any of the Loan Parties. 
 9.20 Certain Releases of Guarantors and Collateral. 
 It is expressly agreed by each Lender, that upon the written request of the Borrower (accompanied by such certificates and other documentation as the Agent may reasonably request) the Agent on behalf of the Lenders
and without any consent or action by any Lender, shall, so long as no Event of Default or Potential Default exists after giving effect thereto, release, or consent to the release of, any Collateral or any Guarantor from a Guaranty Agreement, in
either case, in connection with any sale, transfer, lease, disposition, merger or other transaction permitted by this Agreement, such release to include (i) releases from the Guaranty Agreement of (a) any Loan Party that ceases to be a
Subsidiary pursuant to any sale, transfer, lease, disposition, merger or other transaction permitted by this Agreement, (b) any Unrestricted Subsidiary or Immaterial Subsidiary which is simultaneously released as a guarantor under the
Indebtedness described in Section 7.2.1(viii) and (ii) (a) a release of all the assets of such Loan Party that ceases to be a Subsidiary other than a pledge of the capital stock or equity interests of a Subsidiary directly owned by
any Loan Party and (b) release of any assets of a Loan Party sold or transferred in a transaction permitted by Section 7.2.7 [Dispositions of Assets or Subsidiaries]. 
 10. MISCELLANEOUS 
 10.1 Modifications, Amendments or Waivers.

 With the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agent, acting on behalf of all the Lenders, and the Borrower, on behalf of the Loan
Parties, may from time to time enter into written agreements amending or changing any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the rights of the Lenders or the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder, or may grant written waivers or
consents to a departure from the due performance of the Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder. Any such agreement, waiver or consent made with such written consent shall be effective to bind all the Lenders and the Loan Parties;
provided, that, without the written consent of all the Lenders, no such agreement, waiver or consent may be made which will: 
 10.1.1 Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date. 
 Increase the amount of the Commitment of any
Lender hereunder or extend the Expiration Date; 
 10.1.2 Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal Interest or Fees;
Modification of Terms of Payment. 
 Whether or not any Loans are outstanding, extend the time for payment of principal or
interest of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation (excluding the due date of any mandatory prepayment of a Loan or any mandatory Commitment reduction in connection 

  

 91 








 
with such a mandatory prepayment hereunder except for mandatory reductions of the Commitments on the Expiration Date), the Commitment Fee or any other fee
payable to any Lender, or reduce the principal amount of or the rate of interest borne by any Loan or reduce the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender or otherwise affect the terms of payment of the principal of or interest of any
Loan, the Commitment Fee or any other fee payable to any Lender; 
 10.1.3 Release of Collateral or Guarantor.

 Except for sales of assets permitted by Section 7.2.7 [Disposition of Assets or Subsidiaries] and the releases
permitted in Section 9.20 [Certain Releases of Guarantors and Collateral], release any Collateral consisting of capital stock or other ownership interests of any Loan Party or its Subsidiary or substantially all of the assets of any Loan Party,
any Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty Agreement or Parent Guaranty Agreement or any other security for any of the Loan Parties’ Obligations or 
 10.1.4 Miscellaneous. 
 Amend Section 4.2 [Pro Rata Treatment of Lenders], 9.6 [Exculpatory Provisions, Etc.] or 9.13 [Equalization of Lenders] or this Section 10.1, alter any provision regarding the pro rata treatment of the
Lenders, change the definition of “Required Lenders” or change any requirement providing for the Lenders or the Required Lenders to authorize the taking of any action hereunder; 
 provided further, that no agreement, waiver or consent which would modify the interests, rights or obligations of the Agent in its capacity as Agent or as
the issuer of Letters of Credit shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent. 
 10.2 No Implied Waivers; Cumulative
Remedies; Writing Required. 
 No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power,
remedy or privilege under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to
enforce such a right, power, remedy or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power, remedy or privilege. The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and any other Loan Documents are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any Lender of any breach or default under this Agreement or any such waiver of
any provision or condition of this Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. 
 10.3 Reimbursement and Indemnification of Lenders by the Borrower; Taxes. 
 The Borrower agrees unconditionally upon demand
to pay or reimburse to each Lender (other than the Agent, as to which the Borrower’s Obligations are set forth in Section 9.5 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Agent by the Borrower]) and to save such Lender 

  

 92 








 
harmless against (i) liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees and expenses of counsel
(including out-of-pocket expenses of staff counsel) for each Lender), incurred by such Lender (a) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof
and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, and (b) in any workout or restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation,
exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, or (ii) all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Lender, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this
Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Lender hereunder or thereunder, provided, that the Borrower shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (A) if the same results from such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (B) if the Borrower was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to
participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrower shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrower), or (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement
agreement entered into without the consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Lenders will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Lenders which are subject to reimbursement by the Borrower
hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Lenders and the Agent if appropriate under the circumstances. The Borrower agrees unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar
impositions now or hereafter determined by the Agent or any Lender to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the Borrower agrees unconditionally to save the Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any
and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions. 
 10.4 Holidays. 
 Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day which
is not a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next Business Day (except as provided in Section 3.2 [Interest Periods] with respect to Interest Periods under the Euro-Rate Option) and such extension of time shall be included in
computing interest and fees, except that the Loans shall be due on the Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day. Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the
Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in
connection with such payment or action. 
  

 93 








 10.5 Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate. 
 10.5.1 Notional Funding. 
 Each Lender shall have the right from time to time, without notice to the Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 10.5 shall mean any corporation or
association which is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with any corporation or association which directly or indirectly controls such Lender) of such Lender to have made, maintained or funded any Loan
to which the Euro-Rate Option applies at any time; provided, that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from the Borrower to such other office), and as a result of such change, the Borrower would not be under
any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] than it would have been in the absence of such change. Notional funding offices may be selected by each Lender without regard to such
Lender’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding the Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Lender. 
 10.5.2 Actual Funding. 
 Each Lender shall have the right from time to time to make or
maintain any Loan by arranging for a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender to make or maintain such Loan subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.5.2. If any Lender causes a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain
any part of the Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans to the same extent as if such Loans were made or maintained by such
Lender, but in no event shall any Lender’s use of such a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder cause such Lender or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to incur any cost or expenses payable by the
Borrower hereunder or require the Borrower to pay any other compensation to any Lender (including any expenses incurred or payable pursuant to Section 4.6 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) which would otherwise not be
incurred. 
 10.6 Notices.

given to or made upon any party hereto under any provision of this Agreement shall be given or made by telephone or in writing (which includes means of electronic transmission (i.e., “e-mail”), facsimile transmission, setting forth such
Notice on a site on the World Wide Web (a “Website Posting”) if Notice of such Website Posting (including the information necessary to access such site) has previously been delivered to the applicable parties hereto or by another means set

 Any Lender giving a Notice to a Loan Party shall concurrently send a copy thereof to the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify the other Lenders of its receipt of
such Notice. 
 10.7 Severability. 
 The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 
 10.8 Governing Law. 
 Each Letter of
Credit and Section 2.9 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] shall be subject to the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (1993 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 500, as the same may be revised or
amended from time to time, and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the internal laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws principles, and the balance of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract under the Laws

termination of the Commitments. 
 10.11 Successors and Assigns. 
 (i) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, the Agent, the Loan Parties and their respective
successors and assigns, except that none of the Loan Parties may assign or transfer any of its rights and Obligations hereunder or any interest herein. Each Lender may, at its own cost, make assignments of or sell participations in all or any part
of its Commitments and the Loans made by it to one or more banks or other entities, subject to the consent of the Borrower and the Agent with respect to any assignee, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld; provided, that (1) no
consent of the Borrower shall be required (A) if an Event of Default exists and is continuing or (B) in the case of for an assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender and (2) any assignment by a Lender to a Person other than

accordingly, and upon surrender of any Note subject to such assignment, the Borrower shall execute and deliver a new Note to the assignee in an amount equal to the amount of the Commitment assumed by it and a new Note to the assigning Lender in an
amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Any Lender which assigns any or all of its Commitment or Loans to a Person other 

  

 96 








 
than an Affiliate of such Lender shall pay to the Agent a service fee in the amount of $3,500 for each assignment. In the case of a participation, the
participant shall only have the rights specified in Section 8.2.3 [Set-off] (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the
participant relating thereto and not to include any voting rights except with respect to changes of the type referenced in Sections 10.1.1 [Increase of Commitment, Etc.], 10.1.2 [Extension of Payment, Etc.], or 10.1.3 [Release of Collateral or
Guarantor]), all of such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall remain unchanged, and all amounts payable by any Loan Party hereunder or thereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such
participation. 
 (ii) Any assignee or participant which is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or
a state thereof shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent the form of certificate described in Section 10.17.1 [Tax Withholding Clause] relating to federal income tax withholding. Each Lender may furnish any publicly available information

to the Borrower or one or more of its Affiliates (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Lender or by one or more Subsidiaries or Affiliates of such Lender and each of the Loan Parties hereby authorizes each Lender to share any

authorized to give or withhold such consent in its sole and absolute discretion and to condition its consent upon the giving of additional collateral, the payment of money or any other matter. 
 10.15 Exceptions. 
 The
representations, warranties and covenants contained herein shall be independent of each other, and no exception to any representation, warranty or covenant shall be deemed to be an exception to any other representation, warranty or covenant

 10.17 Certifications From Lenders and
Participants 
 10.17.1 Tax Withholding. 
 Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state
thereof (and, upon the written request of the Agent, each other Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender) agrees that it will deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two (2) duly completed appropriate valid Withholding Certificates
(as defined under § 1.1441-1(c)(16) of the Income Tax Regulations (the “Regulations”)) certifying its status (i.e. U.S. or foreign person) and, if appropriate, making a claim of reduced, or exemption from, U.S. withholding tax on the
basis of an income tax treaty or an exemption provided by the Internal Revenue Code. The term “Withholding Certificate” means a Form W-9; a Form W-8BEN; a Form W-8ECI; a Form W-8IMY and the related statements and certifications as required
under § 1.1441-1(e)(2) and/or (3) of the Regulations; a statement described in § 1.871-14(c)(2)(v) of the Regulations or any other certificates under the Internal Revenue Code or Regulations that certify or establish the status of a
payee or beneficial owner as a U.S. or foreign person. Each Lender, assignee or participant required to deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a Withholding Certificate pursuant to the preceding sentence shall deliver such valid Withholding
Certificate as follows: (i) each Lender which is a party hereto on the Closing Date shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days prior to the first date on which any interest or fees are payable by the
Borrower hereunder for the account of such Lender and (ii) each assignee or participant shall deliver such valid Withholding Certificate at least five (5) Business Days before the effective date of such assignment or participation (unless
the Agent in its sole discretion shall permit such assignee or participant to deliver such valid Withholding Certificate less than five (5) Business Days before such date in which case it shall be due on the date specified by the Agent). Each
Lender, assignee or participant which so delivers a valid Withholding Certificate further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two (2) additional copies of such Withholding Certificate (or a successor form) on or before
the date that such Withholding Certificate expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent Withholding Certificate so delivered by it, and such amendments thereto or extensions or renewals
thereof as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent. Notwithstanding the submission of a Withholding Certificate claiming a reduced rate of or exemption from U.S. withholding tax, the Agent shall be entitled to withhold 

  

 99 








 
United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence
requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under § 1.1441-7(b) of the Regulations. Further, the Agent is indemnified under § 1.1461-1(e) of the Regulations against any claims and demands of any Lender or assignee or participant of a
Lender for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under § 1441 of the Internal Revenue Code. 
 10.17.2 USA Patriot Act. 
 Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is
not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both
(i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United states or foreign county and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository
institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot
Act and the applicable regulations: (1) within 10 days after the Closing Date and (2) as such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act. 
 10.18 Joinder of Guarantors. 
 Any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower which is required to join
this Agreement as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.2.9 [Subsidiaries, Partnerships and Joint Ventures] shall execute and deliver to the Agent within thirty days after the date on which it becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower
(whether by its creation or acquisition) by Loan Parties (i) a Guarantor Joinder in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1(G)(1), pursuant to which it shall join as a Guarantor each of the documents to which the Guarantors
are parties; (ii) documents in the forms described in Section 6.1 [First Loans] modified as appropriate to relate to such Restricted Subsidiary and (iii) documents as required by Section 7.1.13 to grant and perfect Prior Security
Interests to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in all Collateral held by such Restricted Subsidiary (other than Excluded Property). 
 10.19 Limitation on Recourse to General Partner. 
 Except as set forth below, the Agent and the Lenders shall not look to the
General Partner for the payment of the Obligations and the performance of the Loan Parties’ (or the Parent’s) other obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that the Agent and the Lenders
shall have the right to look to the General Partner on a joint and several basis for, and the General Partner on a joint and several basis shall indemnify, and hold harmless, the Agent and the Lenders from, any loss, damage, liability, claim, cost
or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Agent or any Lender may incur as a result of and to the extent caused by any misappropriation of assets, rights, rents, profits, issues, income or other properties or revenues of the
Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by the General Partner.

under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such
