          by the supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR described in clause (ii) of this Section 3.03(b), the U.S. Federal Reserve System, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over such administrator for LIBOR, a resolution authority with
          jurisdiction over such administrator for LIBOR or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over such administrator for LIBOR, which states that such administrator of LIBOR has ceased or will cease as of a specific date
          to provide LIBOR (permanently or indefinitely); provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that is acceptable to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide LIBOR after such
          specified date; or

       
      (v)     syndicated credit
          facilities substantially similar to the credit facilities under this Agreement being executed at such time, or that include language substantially similar to that contained in this Section 3.03(b), are being executed or amended, as the case may
          be, to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR for deposits in Dollars, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Eurodollar Base Rate with a Benchmark Replacement.
          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.01, any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event (A) pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 3.03(b) will become effective without any further action or
          consent of any other party to this Agreement at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower so long as the Administrative Agent has not
          received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders  or (B) pursuant to clause (v) of this Section 3.03(b), will become effective without any further action or consent of any other
          party to this Agreement on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment.  No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement
          pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) will occur prior to the date set forth in the applicable amendment.

      In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time
        and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this
        Agreement.

       
      

         

       
      The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (1) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event (other than pursuant to clause (v) of this Section
        3.03(b)), (2) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (3) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (4) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or
        election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.03(b), including, if applicable, any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event,
        circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each
        case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.03(b).

       
      

         

       
      Upon notice to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 10.02 of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period and until a Benchmark Replacement
        is determined in accordance with this Section 3.03(b), (A) any request pursuant to Section 2.02 that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Borrowing of a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be revoked by the
        Borrower and if not revoked shall be ineffective and any such Borrowing shall be continued as or converted to, as the case may be, a Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, and (B) if any request pursuant to Section 2.02 requests a Borrowing of a Eurodollar
        Rate Loan, such request may be revoked by the Borrower and if not revoked such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan.  During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of the Base Rate based upon the Eurodollar Rate
        will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

       
      

         

       
      (e)     Section 6.01 is hereby amended by adding
          a new clause (k) after clause (j) therein as follows:

          Subsidiaries as of the last day of such fiscal quarter.

      (f)  Section 7.02 is hereby amended by restating clause 7.02(i) as set forth below:

        during the period from the Second Amendment Effective Date through April 30, 2021, the aggregate amount of Indebtedness and other obligations outstanding at any time secured by Liens permitted under this clause (i) shall not exceed $100,000,000;

       
      

         

       
      (g)  Section 7.04 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by restating such section as set forth below:

          a Pro Forma Basis, so long as the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the inclusion or exclusion, as applicable, of the financial results of the Subsidiary, Person, business or assets acquired or disposed of in such
          acquisition or disposition, as applicable, on a Pro Forma Basis and provided any applicable financial information (including pro forma calculations) to the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, the Leverage Ratio shall not apply for
          any Test Period ending on May 2, 2020, August 1, 2020, October 31, 2020 or January 30, 2021.

          Second Amendment Effective Date through April 30, 2021, to be less than $1,500,000,000.

       
       

       
      (i)  Section 10.19 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated as set forth below:

          bound by:

       
       

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

       
       

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

       
       

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

       
       

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

       
       

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

          Agreement as amended hereby.  Except as expressly amended hereby, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and all documents, instruments and agreements related thereto, are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall continue
          in full force and effect.  The Credit Agreement, together with this Amendment, shall be read and construed as a single agreement.  All references in the Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document shall hereafter refer to
          the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document as amended hereby.

       
      

         

       
      Section 4.     Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lenders and Administrative Agent as follows:

       
      

         

       
      (a)     the representations and warranties of the
          Borrower contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement are (i) with respect to representations and warranties that contain a qualification as to materiality, true and correct in all respects (after giving effect to any such qualification
          therein), and (ii) with respect to representations and warranties that do not contain a qualification as to materiality, true and correct in all material respects, in each case as of the date hereof  except to the extent any such representation
          or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be (i) with respect to representations and warranties that contain a qualification as to materiality, true and correct in all respects
          (after giving effect to any such qualification therein), and (ii) with respect to representations and warranties that do not contain a qualification as to materiality, true and correct in all material respects, in each case on and as of such

          Credit Agreement;

       
      
        10

        
          


      

       
      (b)      the Borrower has the requisite corporate
          or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment;

       
       

       
      (c)      neither the execution and delivery by
          the Borrower of this Amendment, nor the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will (i) violate, in any material respect, any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction,
          decree or arbitral award binding on the Borrower, (ii) violate the Borrower’s Organization Documents, (iii) violate the provisions of any material indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or
          is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder;

       
       

       
      (d)      this Amendment, the Credit Agreement as
          amended hereby and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy,
          insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally) and is in full force and effect; and

       
       

       
      (e)       as of the date hereof, no Default or
          Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

      (a)       The Administrative Agent shall have
          received executed counterparts of this Amendment, from each of the Borrower and the Required Lenders;

       
       

       
      (b)     The Administrative Agent shall have
          received a copy of the certificate of incorporation (or comparable constitutive document) of the Borrower, together with all amendments thereto, certified by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary, or other appropriate officer of the Borrower, and a
          certificate of good standing, certified by the appropriate governmental officer of its jurisdiction of organization, together with  a copy, certified by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, as applicable, of its by-laws (or any comparable

          Borrower, which shall identify by name and title and bear the signature of the officers of the Borrower authorized to sign this Amendment;

       
       

       
      (c)       The Administrative Agent shall have
          received a fully executed copy of the Second Amendment to the 2022 Revolving Credit Agreement, which shall be in full force and effect; and

      Section 6.     Miscellaneous Provisions.

       
      

         

       
      (a)       THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
          AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

       
      

         

       
      (b)      This Amendment shall constitute a Loan
          Document under the Credit Agreement and all obligations included in this Amendment (including, without limitation, all obligations for the payment of fees and expenses and other amounts) shall constitute Obligations under the Credit Agreement.

       
      

         

       
      (c)      This Amendment may be executed in
          counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature
          page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Amendment
          shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based record keeping
          system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar
          state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

       
      

         

       
      

         

       
      (d)      In the manner provided, and subject to
          the limitations, in Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay to all reasonable out of pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of
          counsel for the Administrative Agent) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Amendment (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated).

       
      

         

       
      (e)      This Amendment shall be binding upon and
          inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

       
      

         

       
      (f)       This Amendment constitutes the entire
          agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements which may have existed with respect thereto.  Except as expressly provided herein, this Amendment shall not, by implication
          or otherwise, limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of
          the obligations or covenants contained in the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, all of which are ratified and confirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect.  To the extent there is any inconsistency
          between the terms and provisions of any Loan Document and the terms and provisions of this Amendment, the terms and provisions of this Amendment shall govern.
