Section
2.1          
Revolving Credit Loans.


 


(a)              
Making of Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including Section
2.15, each Revolving Credit Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars to
the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, in an
aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving
Credit Commitment. Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans hereunder shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount (except that, subject to Section 2.15, any such borrowing of
Revolving Credit Loans may be in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments
of all Revolving Credit Lenders minus (y) the sum of the aggregate principal balance of all Revolving Credit Loans, Swingline
Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities). Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Credit Loans.


 


(b)               Requests
for Revolving Credit Loans. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day of a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans
that are Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans, and not later than 1:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days
prior to a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal
amount of the Revolving Credit Loans to be borrowed, the date such Revolving Credit Loans are to be borrowed (which must be a
Business Day), the use of the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans, the Type of the requested Revolving Credit Loans, and
if such Revolving Credit Loans are to be LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the initial Interest Period for such
Revolving Credit Loans. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable once given and binding on the Borrower (unless such
notice provides that such request is contingent on the consummation of a transaction, in which case, such notice shall be
revocable to the extent the transaction is not consummated on the date such borrowing is requested to be made, provided that
the Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders any funding or “breakage” charges incurred in
connection with such Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 5.4 hereof). Prior to delivering a Notice of Borrowing,
the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Revolving Credit Loan will be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that
the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with the most recent LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to the Borrower on the date of such request or as soon as possible
thereafter.

(c)              
Funding of Revolving Credit Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under the immediately preceding
subsection (b), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the proposed borrowing. Each Revolving
Credit Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such Revolving Credit Lender to the Borrower
with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of such
proposed Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans, and not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of
such proposed Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans). Subject to fulfillment of all applicable
conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Borrower in the account specified in the Disbursement
Instruction Agreement, not later than 4:00 p.m. on the date of the requested borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base
Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans and not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the requested borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans that
are LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent. No Revolving
Credit Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make a Revolving Credit Loan or to perform
any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Revolving Credit Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Revolving
Credit Lender to make a Revolving Credit Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall
not relieve the obligation of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make any Revolving Credit Loan or to perform any other obligation
to be made or performed by such other Lender.


 


(d)               Assumptions
Regarding Funding by Revolving Credit Lenders. With respect to Revolving Credit Loans to be made after the Effective
Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Revolving Credit Lender that such Revolving Credit
Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such Revolving Credit Lender
in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such
Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section, and the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of
such Revolving Credit Loan to be provided by such Revolving Credit Lender. In such event, if such Revolving Credit Lender
does not make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan, then such Revolving Credit
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan
with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Revolving Credit Loan is made available to the Borrower
but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such
Revolving Credit Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the
Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Type of Revolving Credit Loan elected by the Borrower in the Notice of
Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Revolving Credit Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to the Administrative Agent
for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest
paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Revolving Credit Lender pays to the Administrative Agent the amount of such
Revolving Credit Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Loan
included in the borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against
a Revolving Credit Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such
Revolving Credit Lender.

Section
2.2          
Term Loans.


 


(a)              
Making of Term Loans.  Prior to the Effective Date, certain “Tranche A-1 Term Loans” and “Tranche
A-2 Term Loans” were made to the Borrower under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement (such outstanding “Tranche
A-1 Term Loans” being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Tranche A-1 Term Loans” and such outstanding
“Tranche A-2 Term Loans” being hereinafter referred to as the “Existing Tranche A-2 Term Loans”).
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Borrower and each of the Lenders agree that on the Effective
Date but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Article VI, the Existing Tranche A-1 Term
Loans and the Existing Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall be reevidenced as Tranche A-1 Term Loans and Tranche A-2 Term Loans under this
Agreement. Amounts of any Term Loan (including any Additional Term Loan Advances or New Term Loans) that are repaid may not be
re-borrowed; provided, however, that during the Term Loan Commitment Period, the Borrower shall have the right (in up to three
(3) separate advances) to re-borrow (and each Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make) any Tranche
A-2 Term Loans that were repaid prior to such re-borrowing date in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this
Section (each, a “Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing”), provided that (i) each Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Re-Borrowing shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, and not more than three (3) Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings may be
permitted, (ii) all Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings shall be made no later than the last day of the Term Loan Commitment Period,
(iii) the aggregate principal amount of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings shall not exceed the amount of the aggregate unused
Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments on the date of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing, (iv) the outstanding principal amount
of Tranche A-2 Term Loans made by any Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender to the Borrower shall not exceed such Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Lender’s Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment, and (v) the outstanding principal amount of any Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing,
once repaid, may not be thereafter re-borrowed. Upon the expiration of the Term Loan Commitment Period, all undisbursed Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Commitments shall be automatically and permanently cancelled.


 


(b)               Requests
for Tranche A-2 Term Loans. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day of a Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of
Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans, and not later than 1:00 p.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to a
Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Each Notice of Borrowing shall specify the aggregate principal amount of the
Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings, the date of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings (which must be a Business Day), the
use of the proceeds of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings, the Type of the requested Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Re-Borrowings, and if such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings are to be LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the
initial Interest Period for such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowings. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable once
given and binding on the Borrower (unless such notice provides that such request is contingent on the consummation of a
transaction, in which case, such notice shall be revocable to the extent the transaction is not consummated on the date such
borrowing is requested to be made, provided that the Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders any funding or
“breakage” charges incurred in connection with such Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 5.4 hereof).
Prior to delivering a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower may (without specifying whether a Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing
will be a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan) request that the Administrative Agent provide the Borrower with the most recent
LIBOR available to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall provide such quoted rate to the Borrower on the
date of such request or as soon as possible thereafter.

(c)              
Funding of Tranche A-2 Term Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing under the immediately preceding
subsection (b), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender of the proposed Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Re-Borrowing. Each Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender shall deposit an amount equal to the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing to be made
by such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender to the Borrower with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available
funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of such proposed Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily
Loans, and not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of such proposed Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (other
than LIBOR Daily Loans). Subject to fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make
available to the Borrower in the account specified in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement, not later than 4:00 p.m. on the date
of the requested Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans and not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
date of the requested Tranche A-2 Term Loan Re-Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), the proceeds of such amounts
received by the Administrative Agent. No Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Lender to make a Tranche A-2 Term Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender to make a Tranche A-2 Term Loan or to perform
any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Lender to make any Tranche A-2 Term Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.


 


(d)               Assumptions
Regarding Funding by Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lenders. With respect to Tranche A-2 Term Loans to be made after the Effective
Date, unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender that such Tranche A-2 Term
Loan Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent a Tranche A-2 Term Loan to be made by such Tranche A-2 Term
Loan Lender in connection with any borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of
such Tranche A-2 Term Loan available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section, and the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower
the amount of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan to be provided by such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender. In such event, if such Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Lender does not make available to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan, then
such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent on demand the amount of
such Tranche A-2 Term Loan with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such Tranche A-2 Term Loan is made
available to the Borrower but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment
to be made by such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a
payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the Type of Tranche A-2 Term Loan elected by the Borrower
in the Notice of Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender shall pay the amount of such interest to
the Administrative Agent for the same or overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower
the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender pays to the
Administrative Agent the amount of such Tranche A-2 Term Loan, the amount so paid shall constitute such Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Lender’s Tranche A-2 Term Loan included in the borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any
claim the Borrower may have against a Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender that shall have failed to make available the proceeds of a
Tranche A-2 Term Loan to be made by such Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender.


 






    - 59 -


     


    

 


(e)              
Obligation of Term Loan Lenders. Without limitation of the foregoing, no Term Loan Lender (which for purposes of
this subsection (e) shall include (if and as applicable) each Additional Term Loan Lender or New Term Loan Lender) shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Term Loan Lender to advance its portion of the applicable Term Loan (which, for purposes of this subsection
(e) shall include (if and as applicable) each Additional Term Loan Advance, each New Term Loan and each reborrowing of Tranche
A-2 Term Loans) or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Term Loan Lender hereunder, and the failure
of any Term Loan Lender to advance its portion of the applicable Term Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed
by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Term Loan Lender to advance its portion of such Term Loan or to perform
any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.


 


Section
2.3          
Letters of Credit.


 


(a)               Letters
of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 2.15 and Section
3.9(c), each Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders, agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower
during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date, one or more standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) denominated in
Dollars up to the maximum aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities at any one time outstanding not to exceed $30,000,000,
as such amount may be reduced from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof (the “L/C Commitment
Amount”); provided that, unless such Issuing Bank shall otherwise consent thereto, no Issuing Bank shall be
obligated to issue Letters of Credit hereunder having a maximum aggregate Stated Amount in excess of the lesser of (i) such
Issuing Bank’s pro rata share of the L/C Commitment Amount (which amount is $15,000,000 for each Issuing Bank as of the
Effective Date) at any one time outstanding and (ii) (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Issuing Bank in its capacity
as a Revolving Credit Lender, minus (B) the sum of (x) the Stated Amount of any Letter of Credit issued by such
Issuing Bank, plus (y) such Issuing Bank’s participation interest under this Section 2.3 in each Letter of
Credit issued by any other Issuing Bank, minus (C) the sum of (x) all outstanding Swingline Loans made by such Issuing
Bank in its capacity as a Swingline Lender, if applicable, plus (y) if such Issuing Bank is not a Swingline Lender,
its participation interest under this Section 2.3 in all outstanding Swingline Loans.


 






    - 60 -


     


    

 


(b)              
Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the form, terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit, and
of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the applicable Issuing Bank in accordance with its customary
standards therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend
beyond not more than one (1) year beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, or (ii) any Letter of Credit have an initial
duration in excess of one year; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic
extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the applicable Issuing Bank but in no event shall
any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the date that is not more than one
(1) year beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, provided, further, however, that in the case of any Letter of Credit
that, either when initially issued or when renewed, has an expiration date beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower
shall be obligated to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.14(a). The initial Stated Amount
of each Letter of Credit shall be at least $100,000 (or such lesser amount as may be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank).


 


(c)               Requests
for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent
written notice at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank) prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to
describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations
proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the
proposed (i) initial Stated Amount, (ii) beneficiary, and (iii) expiration date. The Borrower shall also
execute and deliver such customary applications and agreements for standby letters of credit, and other forms as requested
from time to time by such Issuing Bank. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this
subsection and delivered such applications and agreements referred to in the preceding sentence, subject to the other terms
and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2,
such Issuing Bank shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the
stipulated beneficiary but in no event prior to the date five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be
reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank) following the date after which such Issuing Bank has
received all of the items required to be delivered to it under this subsection. No Issuing Bank shall at any time be
obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Bank, Administrative
Agent or any Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law. References herein to “issue” and
derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include extensions or modifications of any outstanding
Letters of Credit, unless the context otherwise requires. Upon the written request of the Borrower, the applicable Issuing
Bank shall promptly deliver to the Borrower a copy of (i) any Letter of Credit proposed to be issued hereunder prior to
the issuance thereof and (ii) each issued Letter of Credit after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term
of a Letter of Credit Document (excluding any certificate or other document presented by a beneficiary in connection with a
drawing under such Letter of Credit) is inconsistent with the terms and provisions of any Loan Document, the terms and
provisions of such Loan Document shall control. The Borrower shall examine the copy of any Letter of Credit or any amendment
to a Letter of Credit that is delivered to it by the applicable Issuing Bank and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance
with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will promptly (but in any event, within five (5)
Business Days after the later of (x) receipt by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit of the original of, or amendment to,
such Letter of Credit, as applicable and (y) receipt by the Borrower of a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, as
applicable) notify such Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the
applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(d)              
Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by the applicable Issuing Bank from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit
of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit (a “Drawing”) and such Issuing Bank’s determination
that such demand for payment complies with the requirements of such Letter of Credit, such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by such Issuing Bank as a result of such Drawing and the date on
which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to such beneficiary in respect of such Drawing; provided, however, that
such Issuing Bank’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from
the applicable Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse
(either with the proceeds of a Base Rate Loan as provided for in subsection (e) below or with funds from other sources) such Issuing
Bank for the amount of each Drawing at or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary
thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (other than the notice provided for in the first
sentence of this subsection (d).


 


(e)              
Manner of Reimbursement. Unless the Borrower shall notify the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent
on the day that such Issuing Bank provides notice of the Drawing on the Letter of Credit as provided in subsection (d) above that
the Borrower intends to reimburse such Issuing Bank for such Drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrower shall be deemed
to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Revolving Credit Lenders make a Base
Rate Loan in the amount of (a) such Drawing and (b) any amounts referred to in Section 3.5(c) incurred by such Issuing Bank
in connection with such payment, and the Revolving Credit Lenders shall make a Base Rate Loan in such amount in accordance with
subsection (j) below, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the amount of such Drawing and
costs and expenses.


 


(f)               
Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Credit Commitments. Upon the issuance by any Issuing Bank of any Letter
of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving
Credit Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such
Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

(g)              
Each Issuing Bank’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations. In examining
documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against
such documents, the applicable Issuing Bank shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with
examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and
making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower 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, none
of any Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders shall be responsible for, and the Borrower’s obligations
in respect of Letters of Credit shall not be affected in any manner by, (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness
or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing
honored under any Letter of Credit even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting
to transfer or assign any 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) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply
fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays
in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, facsimile, electronic mail, telecopy 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 Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication
by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences
arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent or the Revolving Credit Lenders. None of
the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Banks’ or the Administrative Agent’s rights
or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit,
if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final non-appealable judgment), shall not create against such Issuing Bank any liability to the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any Drawing
made under any Letter of Credit, and to repay any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of subsection (d)
above, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following
circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein;
(B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the
existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against any Issuing Bank, the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract
or dispute between the Borrower, any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand,
statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in
any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any
non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter
of Credit; (G) payment by any Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which
does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance
whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge
of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Section or Section 13.10, but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation
to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section and
to repay any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to the second sentence of subsection (d) above, the Borrower shall have no obligation
to indemnify the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender in respect of any liability incurred by
the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent arising out of the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Credit Lender (as the case may be) in respect
of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. Nothing in this
Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.

(h)              
Amendments, Etc. The issuance by the applicable Issuing Bank of any amendment, supplement or other modification to
any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of
Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through such Issuing Bank), and no such amendment, supplement
or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied
with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Administrative
Agent and Requisite Revolving Credit Lenders shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such amendment, supplement or
other modification, the Borrower shall pay the fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.5(c).


 


(i)                 Revolving
Credit Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance by any Issuing Bank of any Letter
of Credit each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and
received from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the liability of such Issuing Bank with respect to
such Letter of Credit and each Revolving Credit Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume,
as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to such Issuing Bank to pay and discharge when
due, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Issuing Bank’s liability under
such Letter of Credit for which such Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower through a Base Rate Loan or
otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Revolving Credit
Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the
immediately following subsection (j), such Revolving Credit Lender shall, automatically and without any further action
on the part of such Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or such Revolving Credit Lender, acquire (i) a participation in
an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Issuing Bank by the Borrower in respect of such
Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation
(other than the Fees payable to such Issuing Bank pursuant to the last two sentences of Section 3.5(c)). Upon
receipt by the applicable Issuing Bank of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, such Issuing Bank shall
promptly pay to each Revolving Credit Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of this
subsection (i), such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment.


 






    - 64 -


     


    

 


(j)                
Payment Obligation of Revolving Credit Lenders. Each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, on demand or upon notice in accordance with subsection (e) above, in immediately
available funds in Dollars the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of each Drawing
paid by such Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to subsection
(d); provided, however, that in respect of any Drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Revolving
Credit Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Base Rate Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Drawing. If the notice referenced in the second sentence of subsection
(e) above is received by a Revolving Credit Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., then such Revolving Credit Lender shall make such
payment available to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of demand therefor; otherwise, such payment
shall be made available to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the next succeeding Business Day. Each Revolving
Credit Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, whether as a Base Rate
Loan or as a participation, and the Administrative Agent’s right to receive the same for the account of the applicable Issuing
Bank, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including,
without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the
financial condition of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Non-Loan Party BB Property Subsidiary, (iii) the existence
of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 11.1(e) or (f), or (iv) the
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing
Bank shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.


 


(k)               Information
to Revolving Credit Lenders. Promptly following any change in Letters of Credit outstanding, the applicable Issuing Bank
shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly deliver the same to each Revolving Credit Lender and the
Borrower, a notice describing the aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time. Upon the request of any
Revolving Credit Lender from time to time, such Issuing Bank shall deliver any other information reasonably requested by such
Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, no Issuing
Bank shall have any duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued
hereunder. The failure of any Issuing Bank to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Revolving
Credit Lender from its obligations under the immediately preceding subsection (j).

Section
2.4          
Swingline Loans.


 


(a)              
Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, including, without limitation, Sections 2.15
and 3.9(c), each Swingline Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower, during the period
from the Effective Date to but excluding the Swingline Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding
up to, but not exceeding, $40,000,000 (the “Swingline Sublimit”), as such amount may be reduced from time to
time in accordance with the terms hereof; provided that no Swingline Lender shall be obligated to make Swingline Loans in
an aggregate outstanding principal amount in excess of the lesser of (i) one-half of the Swingline Sublimit and (ii) an amount
equal to (x) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Swingline Lender in its capacity as a Revolving Credit Lender hereunder, minus
(y) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans made by such Swingline Lender in its capacity as a Revolving
Credit Lender hereunder and such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest under Section 2.3 in all Letters of Credit
hereunder (such lesser amount being such Swingline Lender’s “Swingline Availability”). If at any time
the aggregate Outstanding Amounts of the Swingline Loans exceeds the aggregate Swingline Commitments in effect at such time or
the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans made by any Swingline Lender shall exceed such Swingline Lender’s Swingline
Availability, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Swingline Lender the
amount of such excess. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline
Loans hereunder.


 


(b)              
Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the applicable Swingline
Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or telephonic notice of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan. Each Notice
of Swingline Borrowing shall be delivered to such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 p.m. on
the proposed date of such borrowing. Any telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written Notice of
Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent
to such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication on the
same day of the giving of such telephonic notice. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the requested Swingline Loan, the
applicable Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan available to the Administrative Agent at its Principal
Office in Dollars in immediately available funds, for the account of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall, subject to satisfaction
of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6.2 for such borrowing, make the amount so received available to
the Borrower on such date by depositing the same in Dollars in immediately available funds, in an account of the Borrower designated
by the Borrower in the Disbursement Instruction Agreement.


 


(c)               Interest.
Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate as in effect from time to time plus the
Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or at such other rate or rates as the Borrower and the
applicable Swingline Lender may agree from time to time in writing. Interest on Swingline Loans is solely for the account of
the applicable Swingline Lender (except to the extent a Revolving Credit Lender acquires a participating interest in a
Swingline Loan pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e)). All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans
shall be payable on the dates and in the manner provided in Section 2.5 with respect to interest on Base Rate
Loans (except as the applicable Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any
particular Swingline Loan made by such Swingline Lender).


 






    - 66 -


     


    

 


(d)              
Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc. Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples
of $500,000 in excess thereof, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the applicable Swingline Lender and the Borrower. Any
voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in integral multiples of $500,000 or the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding
Swingline Loans (or such other minimum amounts upon which the applicable Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and, in connection
with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give such Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent prior written notice thereof
not later than one (1) Business Day prior to such prepayment and not later than three (3) Business Days following the advance of
such Swingline Loan. The Swingline Loans owing to a Swingline Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced by a Swingline
Note in favor of such Swingline Lender.


 


(e)               Repayment
and Participations of Swingline Loans. The Borrower agrees to repay each Swingline Loan within five (5) Business Days
after the date such Swingline Loan was made (or, if earlier, the date on which any Revolving Credit Loan shall be made
following the date such Swingline Loan shall be made); provided, that the proceeds of a Swingline Loan may not be used
to pay a Swingline Loan. Any Swingline Lender making demand for repayment of a Swingline Loan made by such Swingline
Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent of such demand on the date such demand is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline
Loans on the Swingline Maturity Date. Unless the Borrower has repaid a Swingline Loan within three (3) Business Days of the
date on which such Swingline Loan was advanced, the Borrower hereby irrevocably directs the applicable Swingline Lender (for
and on behalf of the Borrower), and each such Swingline Lender hereby agrees, to request on such third (3rd)
Business Day (or the following Business Day) a borrowing of Base Rate Loans from the Revolving Credit Lenders in an amount
equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan. The amount limitations contained in the second sentence of Section 2.1(a)
shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans made pursuant to this subsection. Such Swingline Lender shall give notice
to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Base Rate Loans not later than 11:00 a.m. at least one (1) Business
Day prior to the proposed date of such borrowing. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the proposed date of such borrowing, each
Revolving Credit Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of such
Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Base Rate Loan to be made by such Revolving Credit
Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Base Rate Loans to such Swingline Lender, which shall apply
such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan. If the Revolving Credit Lenders are prohibited from making Loans required to be
made under this subsection for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence of any of the Defaults or
Events of Default described in Sections 11.1(e) or (f), each Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase from the
applicable Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan, by directly purchasing a
participation in such Swingline Loan in such amount and paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds. A Revolving Credit Lender’s
obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative
Agent, any Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of
Default (including, without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1(e) or
(f)), or the termination of any Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, (iii) the existence (or
alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of
any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or (v) any other
circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact
made available to such Swingline Lender by any Revolving Credit Lender, such Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover
such amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of
demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Revolving Credit Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon such
Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Revolving Credit Lender makes the required payment,
such Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid
participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Revolving
Credit Lenders to purchase a participation therein). Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned
any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, and any other amounts due it hereunder, to
such Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such
Revolving Credit Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result
of such assignment or otherwise).

Section
2.5          
Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.


 


(a)              
Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period
from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following
per annum rates:


 


(i)                
during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time), plus the Applicable
Margin for Base Rate Loans;


 


(ii)             
during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan), at LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest
Period therefor, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans, and


 


(iii)           
during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Daily Loan, at the LIBOR Market Index Rate, plus the Applicable Margin for LIBOR
Loans.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) automatically
upon any Event of Default under Section 11.1(a), (e) or (f), or (b) at the option of the Requisite Lenders (upon
notice to the Borrower) while any other Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender and each Issuing Bank, as the case may be, interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount
of any Loan made by such Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or
under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender or Issuing Bank (including, without limitation, accrued
but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).


 






    - 68 -


     


    

 


(b)              
Payment of Interest. All accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable
(i) monthly in arrears on the first day of each month, commencing with the first full calendar month occurring after the Effective
Date and (ii) on any date on which the principal balance of such Loan is due and payable in full (whether at maturity, due
to acceleration or otherwise). Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. All determinations
by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all
purposes, absent manifest error.


 


(c)              
Borrower Information Used to Determine Applicable Interest Rates. The parties understand that the applicable interest
rate for the Obligations and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain
financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to the Lenders by the Borrower (the “Borrower Information”).
If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including, without limitation,
because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, and
if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information
been timely provided, then such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower
Information. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because
of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Any recalculation of interest or fees required
by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative
Agent’s, any Issuing Bank’s, or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.


 


(d)              
Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, LIBOR and any Benchmark Replacement shall be subject to replacement in accordance with the terms and conditions of Exhibit
M.


 


Section
2.6          
Number of Interest Periods.


 


There may be no
more than (a) seven (7) different Interest Periods for Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Loans outstanding at the same
time during any time when no Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Daily Loans are outstanding (or six (6) different Interest
Periods during any time when a LIBOR Daily Loan which is a Revolving Credit Loan is outstanding) or (b) four (4) different
Interest Periods with respect to each Term Loan for the LIBOR Loans comprising such Term Loan outstanding at the same time
during any time when there are no LIBOR Daily Loans comprising such Term Loan that are outstanding (or three (3) different
Interest Periods during any time when there is a LIBOR Daily Loan comprising such Term Loan that is outstanding).

Prepayments.


 


(a)              
Optional. Subject to Section 5.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan in full or in part at any time without
premium or penalty. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice at least two (2) Business Days prior to
the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan or one (1) Business Day prior to the prepayment of any Base Rate Loan. Each voluntary partial
prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower may state that such
notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the successful closing of a disposition or acquisition
or other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower if such condition is not satisfied, provided that the
Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders any “breakage” charges incurred in connection with such notice
in accordance with Section 5.4 hereof.


 


(b)              
Mandatory.


 


(i)                
Revolving Credit Commitment Overadvance. If at any time the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Credit
Loans and Swingline Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, exceeds the aggregate amount
of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall immediately upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the Revolving Credit Lenders then holding Revolving Credit Commitments (or if the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated,
then holding outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Swingline Loans and/or Letter of Credit Liabilities), the amount of such excess.
All payments under this subsection (b)(i) shall be applied in accordance with Section 11.5(a).


 


(ii)              Maximum
Loan Availability Overadvance. If at any time the Outstanding Amount of all Loans, together with the aggregate amount of

Administrative Agent for prompt distribution to each Lender a written plan to eliminate such excess. If such excess is not
eliminated within fifteen (15) days of the Borrower obtaining knowledge of the occurrence thereof, then (unless
otherwise approved by the Requisite Lenders) the entire Outstanding Amount of all Loans, together with all accrued interest
thereon, and an amount equal to all Letter of Credit Liabilities for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account,
shall be immediately due and payable in full. All payments under this subsection (b)(ii) shall be applied in accordance
with Section 11.5(b).

(A)            
the Net Proceeds received by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower and their Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded FelCor Subsidiaries)

in Net Proceeds received as a result of one or more such asset sales in the aggregate during such Prepayment Period); provided,
that, if, as of the third (3rd) Business Day following the end of such six-month period, the Borrower or a Subsidiary
of the Borrower shall be a party to a binding contract for the purchase of a Borrowing Base Property executed during such six-month
period, then such Reinvestment Period shall be extended for an additional sixty (60) days (or such longer period as the Administrative
Agent may permit in its sole discretion in order to permit the closing of such property purchase) upon written notice from the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall attach a certified copy of the applicable purchase contract; and


 


(B)

Section
2.9          
Continuation.


 


So long as no Default
or Event of Default exists, (i) the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily
Loan), elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR
Loan and (ii) any LIBOR Daily Loans shall automatically continue as a LIBOR Daily Loan until such time as the Borrower converts
such LIBOR Daily Loan to a different Type in accordance with Section 2.10. Each Continuation of a LIBOR Loan shall be in
an aggregate minimum amount of $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount, and each new Interest Period
selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection
of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than
11:00 a.m. on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower
of a Continuation shall be by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Continuation,
specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loan and portion thereof subject to such Continuation
and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply
with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower
once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed
Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR
Daily Loan) in accordance with this Section, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period
therefor, continue as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month; provided, however that if a Default or Event of
Default exists, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate
Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.10 or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms
of such Section.


 


Section
2.10       Conversion.


 


So long as no
Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of
Conversion to the Administrative Agent by telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication, Convert all or a
portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type; provided, however, a Base Rate Loan may not be Converted
into a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default exists. Each Conversion of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be in an
aggregate minimum amount of $2,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount. Any Conversion of a LIBOR
Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan) into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period
for such LIBOR Loan. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than (i) 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days
prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Loans (or, with respect to any proposed Conversion on the Effective
Date, 11:00 a.m. on the Effective Date) and (ii) 11:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days prior to the date of any proposed
Conversion into Base Rate Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each
Lender of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by
telecopy, electronic mail or other similar form of communication in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying
(a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type
of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into
a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan), the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of
Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

Section
2.11       Notes.


 


(a)              
Notes. In the case of each Revolving Credit Lender that has notified the Administrative Agent in writing that it
elects to receive a Revolving Credit Note, the Revolving Credit Loans made by each Revolving Credit Lender shall, in addition to
this Agreement, also be evidenced at the request of such Lender by a Revolving Credit Note, payable to the order of such Revolving
Credit Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise
duly completed. The Swingline Loans made by any Swingline Lender to the Borrower shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be
evidenced at the request of such Swingline Lender by a Swingline Note payable to the order of such Swingline Lender. In the case
of each Term Loan Lender that has notified the Administrative Agent in writing that it elects to receive a Term Loan Note, the
portion of the applicable Term Loan made by such Term Loan Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced at the
request of such Term Loan Lender by a Term Loan Note, payable to the order of such Term Loan Lender in a principal amount equal
to the amount of its applicable Term Loan as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.


 


(b)              
Records. The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made
by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on
its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error; provided, however, that (i) the failure
of a Lender to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents and (ii) if
there is a discrepancy between such records of a Lender and the statements of accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant
to Section 3.8, in the absence of manifest error, the statements of account maintained by the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section 3.8 shall be controlling.


 


(c)              
Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender
that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii)(A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction,
an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender
a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

Section
2.12       Voluntary
Reductions of the Revolving Credit Commitment or the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment.


 


The Borrower may
terminate or reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments at any time and
from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior notice to the
Administrative Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the
amount of any such reduction (which in the case of any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or Tranche A-2
Term Loan Commitments shall not be less than $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount in the
aggregate) and shall be irrevocable once given (unless such notice states that it is conditioned upon the effectiveness of
other credit facilities or the successful closing of a disposition or acquisition or other event, in which case such notice
may be revoked by the Borrower if such condition is not satisfied, provided that the Borrower pays to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders any “breakage” charges incurred in connection with such notice in accordance with Section
5.4 hereof) and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent (“Commitment Reduction Notice”); provided,
however, the Borrower may not reduce the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments below $100,000,000 unless the
Borrower is terminating the Revolving Credit Commitments in full. Promptly after receipt of a Commitment Reduction Notice the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lender, as applicable, of the
proposed termination or commitment reduction. Without limitation of the provisions of Section 2.16, the Revolving
Credit Commitments and Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments, once reduced or terminated pursuant to this Section, may not
be increased or reinstated. In the case of a termination of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments, the Borrower shall pay all
fees, if any, accrued to the date of such termination of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lenders. In the case of a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the
Borrower shall pay all interest on the Revolving Credit Loans and all fees, if any, accrued to the date of such termination
of the Revolving Credit Commitments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders. In the case
of any reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments resulting in a repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans
pursuant to Section 2.7(a) or Section 2.8(b) (as applicable), the Borrower shall also pay any applicable
compensation due to each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with Section 5.4 of this Agreement.


 


Section
2.13       Extension

The Borrower shall

(a)              
The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with written notice of the Borrower’s request to exercise the
Option to Extend not more than one hundred twenty (120) days but not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the initial Revolving
Credit Maturity Date;


 


(b)              
As of the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice of the Borrower’s request to exercise the
Option to Extend and as of the initial Revolving Credit Maturity Date, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, and the Borrower shall so certify in writing;


 


(c)               All
representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such
Loan Party is a party shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless such representation and warranty
is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on
and as of the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice of the Borrower’s request to exercise the
Option to Extend and as of the initial Revolving Credit Maturity Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of
such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which
case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (unless such
representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation and warranty shall have been true
and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted under
the Loan Documents, and the Borrower shall so certify in writing;

(d)

of the Revolving Credit Lenders) the extension fee provided for in Section 3.5(d).


 


Section
2.14       Expiration
Date of Letters of Credit Past Revolving Credit Commitment Termination.


 


(a)              
If a Letter of Credit, either when initially issued or when renewed, has an expiration date that is later than the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower shall, on or before the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders and the applicable Issuing
Bank, an amount of money sufficient to cause the balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account
to equal the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.


 


(b)              
If on the date the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the
occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder, the Borrower shall, on
such date, pay to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders and the applicable
Issuing Bank, an amount of money sufficient to cause the balance of available funds on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account to equal the Stated Amount of all such Letters of Credit for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account.


 


(c)              
If a Drawing pursuant to any such Letter of Credit described in subsection (a) or (b) above occurs on or prior to the expiration
date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the
Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the payment made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary
with respect to such Drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment. If no Drawing occurs on or prior to the expiration
date of such Letter of Credit and provided no Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Borrower (or to
whomever else may be legally entitled thereto) the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account with respect to
such outstanding Letter of Credit on or before the date ten (10) days after the expiration date of such Letter of Credit.

Section
2.15       Amount Limitations.


 


Notwithstanding any
other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall make any Loan, and no Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter
of Credit and no reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12
shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Revolving
Credit Commitments the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of
Credit Liabilities, would exceed the Maximum Loan Availability.


 


Section
2.16       Increase
in Revolving Credit Commitments; Additional Term Loan Advances; New Term Loans.


 


(a)            The
Borrower shall have the right to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, to request
Additional Term Loan Advances in respect of any Term Loan Facility (or both) existing as of the Agreement Date or to
request the making of New Term Loans in the form of a new tranche, in each case, by providing written notice to the
Administrative Agent; provided, however, that after giving effect to any such increases, Additional Term Loan
Advances and/or New Term Loans, (i) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed $750,000,000,
(ii) the Outstanding Amount of the Tranche A-1 Term Loan Facility shall not exceed $600,000,000, (iii) the Outstanding Amount
of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Facility shall not exceed $600,000,000, and (iv) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all New
Term Loan Facilities shall not exceed $475,000,000. Any New Term Loan Facility shall be subject to substantially the same
terms and conditions of this Agreement that are applicable to all other Term Loans (other than the interest rates applicable
thereto, the maturity date (so long as such maturity date is not earlier than any then-existing Term Loan Maturity Date), the
amortization schedule, prepayment premiums, fees and other economic terms, which shall be determined by the Borrower and the
New Term Loan Lenders) or subject to such other terms and conditions that are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent. Each such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, Additional Term Loan Advances or New Term Loans
must be an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Arrangers, in
consultation with the Borrower, shall manage all aspects of the syndication of such increase in the Revolving Credit
Commitments, Additional Term Loan Advances or New Term Loans, including decisions as to the selection of the existing Lenders
and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders to be approached with respect to such increase and
the allocations of such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, Additional Term Loan Advances or New Term Loans among
such existing Lenders and/or other banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, participation in all or any portion of such increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, Additional Term
Loan Advances or New Term Loans shall be offered by the Arrangers to any existing Lender in the applicable Facility selected
by the Borrower or to any other bank, financial institution or other institutional lender selected by the Borrower, subject
to the approval of the Administrative Agent to the extent set forth in clause (w) of subsection (d) below. No Lender shall be
obligated in any way whatsoever to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment, make Additional Term Loan Advances or make any
New Term Loans, as applicable, and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested
increase or new facility must be an Eligible Assignee.


 






    - 76 -


     


    

 


(b)          
If a new Lender becomes a party to this Agreement as a Revolving Credit Lender, or if any existing Revolving Credit Lender
is increasing its Revolving Credit Commitment, such Lender shall on the date it becomes a Revolving Credit Lender hereunder or,
in the case of an existing Revolving Credit Lender, increases its Revolving Credit Commitment (and as a condition thereto) purchase
from the other Revolving Credit Lenders its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage (determined with respect to the Revolving Credit
Lenders’ relative Revolving Credit Commitments and after giving effect to the increase of Revolving Credit Commitments) of
any outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, by making available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such other Revolving
Credit Lenders, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the Outstanding Amount of
such Revolving Credit Loans to be purchased by such Lender, plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other
Revolving Credit Lenders under Section 2.3(j) that have not been repaid, plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and
as of such date on such portion of the Outstanding Amount of such Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving
Credit Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Revolving Credit Lenders under Section 5.4 as a result of the prepayment
of any such Revolving Credit Loans.


 


(c)          
If pursuant to this Section 2.16 one or more Additional Term Loan Lenders shall agree to make an applicable Additional
Term Loan Advance, or one or more New Term Loan Lenders shall agree to make available a New Term Loan Facility, such Additional
Term Loan Advance or New Term Loan Facility shall be made on a date agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
Additional Term Loan Lender or New Term Loan Lender, as applicable, in accordance with the following conditions and procedures:


 


(i)                 Not
later than 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to a borrowing of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Daily
Loans comprising all or a portion of an Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loans, and not later than 1:00 p.m. at
least three (3) Business Days prior to a borrowing of LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans) comprising all or
a portion of an Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loans, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a
Notice of Borrowing with respect to such Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loan and (B) with respect to any Additional
Term Loan Advance, Notices of Continuation and/or Notices of Conversion with respect to the then outstanding applicable Term
Loan, such that, on the date of such Additional Term Loan Advance, such Term Loan then outstanding and such Additional Term
Loan Advance shall be combined so that all applicable Term Loan Lenders (including such Additional Term Loan Lender)
hold pro rata amounts of each portion of such Term Loan (including such Additional Term Loan Advance) of each Type and
Interest Period. Each such Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Conversion and Notice of Continuation shall specify the Type of
such Term Loan (or Additional Term Loan Advance, as applicable), and if such portion of such Term Loan (or Additional Term
Loan Advance, as applicable), is to be a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan), the Interest Period therefor, all in
accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. Such notices shall be irrevocable once given and
binding on the Borrower (unless such notice provides that such request is contingent on the consummation of a transaction, in
which case, such notice shall be revocable to the extent the transaction is not consummated on the date such borrowing is
requested to be made, provided that the Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders any funding or
“breakage” charges incurred in connection with such notice in accordance with Section 5.4 hereof).

(ii)             
Each Additional Term Loan Lender or New Term Loan Lender shall deposit an amount equal to its applicable Additional Term
Loan Advances or New Term Loan with the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds not later
than 10:00 a.m. on the date on which it has agreed to make such Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loan.  Subject to
fulfillment of all applicable conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the Borrower at the
Principal Office, not later than 1:00 p.m. on such date the proceeds of such amounts received by the Administrative Agent.


 


(iii)           
The Borrower shall pay to the Term Loan Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Term Loan Lenders under Section 5.4
as a result of the Conversion of any portion of the applicable Term Loan as provided above.


 


(d)           The
increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the making of any Additional Term Loan Advance and the making of any New Term
Loans under this Section are subject to the following conditions precedent: (w) the Administrative
Agent’s approval (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of any new Lender (other than an
Eligible Assignee), (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such increase in
the Revolving Credit Commitment, such Additional Term Loan Advance or such New Term Loan, (y) the representations and
warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a
party shall be true and correct in all material respects (unless such representation and warranty is qualified by
materiality, in which event such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the effective date
of such increase or new term loans with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent
that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and
warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (unless such representation and warranty is qualified by
materiality, in which event such representation and warranty shall have been true and correct in all respects) on and as of
such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted under the Loan Documents, and (z) the
Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the secretary or
assistant secretary (or other individual performing similar functions) of (A) all corporate, partnership, member or
other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments or such borrowing
of such Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loans and (B) all corporate, partnership, member or other necessary
action taken by each Guarantor authorizing the guaranty of such increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments or Additional
Term Loan Advance or New Term Loan; (ii) a supplement to this Agreement executed by the Borrower and any Lender increasing
its Revolving Credit Commitment or issuing a new Revolving Credit Commitment or making an Additional Term Loan Advance or New
Term Loan confirming such increase or new Revolving Credit Commitment or Additional Term Loan Advance or New Term Loan which
supplement may include such amendments to this Agreement as the Administrative Agent deems reasonably necessary or
appropriate to implement the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.16 (including to incorporate the terms
applicable to any New Term Loans), together with the consent of the Guarantors thereto; (iii) if requested by the
Administrative Agent or any new Lender or Lender increasing its Revolving Credit Commitment or making any Additional Term
Loan Advance or New Term Loan, an opinion of counsel to the Loan Parties, and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders covering such matters as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; (iv) if requested by any new Revolving
Credit Lender or any existing Revolving Credit Lender increasing its Revolving Credit Commitment, a new Revolving Credit Note

Section
2.17       Funds
Transfer Disbursements.


 


The Borrower hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of any Loan made by the Lenders or any of their Affiliates pursuant
to the Loan Documents as requested by an authorized representative of the Borrower to any of the accounts designated in the Disbursement
Instruction Agreement.


 


ARTICLE
III Payments, Fees and Other General Provisions


 


Section
3.1          
Payments.


 


(a)               Payments
by Borrower. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest, Fees and other amounts
to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in
immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim (excluding Taxes required to be withheld pursuant
to Section 3.10), to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date on
which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made
on the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to Section 11.5, the Borrower shall, at the time of making each
payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the
Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds in
accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent from time to time, for the
account of such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for
the account of the applicable Issuing Bank under this Agreement shall be paid to such Issuing Bank by wire transfer of
immediately available funds in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by such Issuing Bank to the Administrative
Agent from time to time, for the account of such Issuing Bank. In the event the Administrative Agent fails to pay such
amounts to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on the Business Day of receipt of such amounts if received
by the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. on such day or, if received by the Administrative Agent later than 11:00 a.m., then
within one Business Day of receipt of such amounts, the Administrative Agent shall pay interest on such amount until paid at
a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If the due date of any payment under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to
the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall continue to accrue at the rate, if any, applicable to such payment for
the period of such extension.


 






    - 79 -


     


    

 


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

3.2

Except to the extent
otherwise provided herein, including, without limitation, Sections 3.9(c), 3.9(h), 5.6 and 13.7(d):

Revolving Credit Lenders, each payment of the fees under Sections 3.5(a), 3.5(b) (to the extent payable to the Revolving
Credit Lenders), the first sentence of 3.5(c), and 3.5(d), shall be made for the account of the Revolving Credit
Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments under Section 2.12 shall
be applied to the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in each case pro rata according to the
amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages;

Section
3.3          
Sharing of Payments, Etc.


 


If a Lender shall obtain
payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan under this Agreement or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing
by the Borrower or any other Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar
right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower
or any other Loan Party to a Lender (other than any payment in respect of Specified Derivatives Obligations) not in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders in accordance with Section 3.2
or Section 11.5, as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders’ participations in
(or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations
owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end
that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may actually be incurred by
such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2 or Section 11.5,
as applicable. To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations
sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing
a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off,
banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
holder of Loans in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right
or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other
indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.


 


Section
3.4          
Several Obligations.


 


No Lender shall be
responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such
other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed
by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be
made or performed by such other Lender.


 


Section
3.5          
Fees.


 


(a)              
Closing Fee. On the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each Lender all loan
fees as have been agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and Arrangers.


 


(b)              
Facility Fees.


 






    - 82 -


     


    

 


(i)                
During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of (x) the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date
and (y) the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving
Credit Lenders an unused facility fee equal to the sum of the daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitments exceeds the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities set forth in
the table below multiplied by the corresponding per annum rate:


 


	Amount by Which Revolving Credit Commitments

 Exceed Revolving Credit Loans and Letter of Credit

 Liabilities	 	Unused Fee	 
	$0 to and including an amount equal to 50% of the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments	 	 	0.20	%
	Greater than an amount equal to 50% of the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments	 	 	0.25	%



 


Such fee shall be computed on
a daily basis and payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this
Agreement and on the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date or any earlier date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments
or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments to zero. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of calculating an unused facility
fee, the Outstanding Amount of the Swingline Loans shall not be factored into the computation.


 


(ii)             
During the Term Loan Commitment Period, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Lenders an unused facility fee equal to the sum of the daily amount by which the aggregate amount of the Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Commitments exceeds the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans multiplied by the per annum rate
of 0.25% (the “Tranche A-2 Term Loan Unused Fee”). For clarity, in no event shall the Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Unused Fee accrue after the expiration of the Term Loan Commitment Period. Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable
quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April, July and October during the term of this Agreement and upon the expiration
of the Term Loan Commitment Period or any earlier date of termination of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments or reduction of
the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments to zero.


 


(iii)            From
and after the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the Revolving Credit Lenders a facility fee equal to the average daily aggregate amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments (whether or not utilized) multiplied by the corresponding per annum rate equal to the Applicable Facility
Fee. Such fee shall be computed on a daily basis and payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each January, April,
July and October during the term of this Agreement and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or any earlier date of
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments to zero. The Borrower
acknowledges that the fees payable hereunder are bona fide commitment fees and are intended as reasonable compensation to the
Lenders for committing to make funds available to the Borrower as described herein and for no other purposes.


 






    - 83 -


     


    

 


(c)              
Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit
Lender a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Loans
times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter
of Credit (x) to and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is cancelled or (y) to but excluding the date
such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. The fee provided for in the immediately preceding sentence shall be nonrefundable and payable
in arrears (i) quarterly on the first day of each January, April, July and October, (ii) on the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date, (iii) on the date the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv) thereafter from time
to time on demand of the Administrative Agent. In addition to such fee, the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Bank solely
for its own account prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, a nonrefundable fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit
at a per annum rate agreed between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower
shall pay directly to such Issuing Bank from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs and expenses in the amounts
customarily charged by such Issuing Bank from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of
Credit, and any drawings, amendments, renewals, extensions or other transactions relating thereto.


 


(d)              
Extension Fee. If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in accordance with
Section 2.13, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender
a fee equal to fifteen hundredths of one percent (0.15%) of the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment (whether or not utilized).


 


(e)              
Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Administrative
Agent as provided in the Fee Letters and as may be otherwise agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent.


 


Section
3.6          
Computations.


 


Unless otherwise expressly
set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis
of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.


 


Section
3.7          
Usury.


 


In no event
shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by
Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such
excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing
that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto
that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess
of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that
the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest
specifically described in Section 2.5(a)(i) and (ii) and, with respect to Swingline Loans, in Section 2.4(c).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees,
facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or
“breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid
by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges
made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or
losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with
this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. All charges other than charges
for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

Section
3.8          
Statements of Account.


 


The Administrative
Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, accrued interest, charges and payments (other than Fees)
made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and quarterly with a statement of Fees paid pursuant to this Agreement,
and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure
of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its
obligations hereunder.


 


Section
3.9          
Defaulting Lenders.


 


Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is
no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:


 


(a)              
Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Requisite Lenders and in Section 13.7.


 


(b)               Defaulting
Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, Fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise)
or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.4 shall be applied at
such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any
amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata
basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to
Cash Collateralize any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with
subsection (e) below; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to
the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this
Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s
potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize any Issuing
Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future applicable Letters of
Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with subsection (e) below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of
such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event
of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of
its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans
or amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.3(j) in respect of Letters of Credit (such amounts
“L/C Disbursements”), in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate
share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth
in Article VI were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C
Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of,
or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in
Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans are held by the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with their
respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately following
subsection (d)). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or
held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection shall be deemed paid
to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(c)          
Certain Fees.


 


(i)                
During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date, no Defaulting Lender
shall be entitled to receive any Fee payable under Section 3.5(b)(i) or Section 3.5(b)(ii) for any period
during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would
have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). From and after the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date, each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the Fee payable under Section 3.5(b)(iii) for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans funded by it, and (2) its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for
which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following subsection (e).


 


(ii)              Each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the Fee payable under Section 3.5(c) for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the
stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to the immediately following
subsection (e).


 






    - 86 -


     


    

 


(iii)           
With respect to any Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding clauses (i)
or (ii), the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such Fee (other than pursuant to
Section 3.5(b)(ii)) otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation
in Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to the
immediately following subsection (d), (y) pay to the applicable Issuing Bank and the applicable Swingline Lender, as
applicable, the amount of any such Fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s
or such Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining
amount of any such Fee.


 


(d)              
Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation
in Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their
respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (determined without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Article VI (other than Section 6.2(c) or
(e)) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative
Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time),
and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such
Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 13.22, no reallocation hereunder shall
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Revolving Credit
Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s
increased exposure following such reallocation.


 


(e)           
Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans.


 


(i)                
If the reallocation described in the immediately preceding subsection (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected,
the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline
Loans in an amount equal to the applicable Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the
applicable Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in this subsection.


 


(ii)              At
any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two (2) Business Days following the written request of
the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash
Collateralize such Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving
effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an
amount not less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Bank with respect to the applicable Letters of Credit
issued and outstanding at such time.


 






    - 87 -


     


    

 


(iii)           
The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Bank, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities,
to be applied pursuant to the immediately following clause (iv). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash
Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank as herein provided,
or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the aggregate Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Bank with respect
to the applicable Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative
Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency
(after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).


 


(iv)            
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section
in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations
in respect of Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued
on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise
be provided for herein.


 


(v)              
Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the applicable Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure
shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this subsection following (x) the elimination of the
applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving Credit Lender),
or (y) the determination by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided
that, subject to the immediately preceding subsection (b), the Person providing Cash Collateral and such Issuing Bank may
(but shall not be obligated to) agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other
obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral
shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.


 


(f)                Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that
a Revolving Credit Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto,
whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which
may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Revolving Credit Lender will, to the extent applicable,
purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent
may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline
Loans to be held pro rata by the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages (determined without giving effect to the immediately preceding subsection (d)), whereupon such Revolving
Credit Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with
respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Revolving Credit Lender was a Defaulting
Lender; and provided, further, that, subject to Section 13.22, except to the extent otherwise
expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Revolving Credit Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Revolving Credit Lender’s having
been a Defaulting Lender.


 






    - 88 -


     


    

 


(g)              
New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no
Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after
giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter
of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.


 


(h)               Purchase
of Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment. During any period that a
Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, by the Borrower giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent,
such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, either (A) demand that such Defaulting Lender, and upon such demand
such Defaulting Lender shall promptly, assign its Revolving Credit Commitment or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment, as
applicable, its Loans and all of its other interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to
an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6(b), or (B) terminate the
Revolving Credit Commitment (if applicable) or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment (if applicable) of such Defaulting Lender and
notwithstanding Section 3.2 or any other provision herein to the contrary requiring the pro rata treatment of
payments to the Lenders, repay the entire Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans (if and as
applicable) held by such Defaulting Lender, together with all accrued interest thereon, whereupon such Defaulting Lender
shall no longer be a party hereto. No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or
to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. In addition, any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be
obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving
Credit Commitment or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments and Loans via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the
provisions of Section 13.6(b). In connection with any such assignment, such Defaulting Lender shall promptly
execute all documents reasonably requested to effect such assignment, including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption and,
notwithstanding Section 13.6(b), shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $7,500.
The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense
and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders. In the event that a Defaulting Lender does not
execute an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to Section 13.6(b) within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such
Defaulting Lender of notice under this Section 3.9(h) and presentation to such Defaulting Lender of an Assignment and
Assumption evidencing an assignment pursuant to Section 13.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but
not obligated) to execute such an Assignment and Assumption on behalf of such Defaulting Lender, and any such Assignment and
Assumption so executed by the Administrative Agent, the Eligible Assignee and the Borrower shall be effective for purposes of Section
13.6(b).

withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to
make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable
Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions
and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.


 


(c)              
Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for
the payment of, any Other Taxes.


 


(d)              
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each
Recipient, within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required
to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided
that the determinations in such statement are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.


 


(e)               Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or another
Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting
the obligation of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s
failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and
(iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent
in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the
amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to
such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection. The provisions of this subsection shall continue to
inure to the benefit of an Administrative Agent following its resignation or removal as Administrative Agent.

(f)          
Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to
a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the
return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.


 


(g)          
Status of Lenders.


 


(i)                
Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender,
if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable
Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other
than such documentation set forth in the immediately following clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required
if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.


 


(ii)           
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:


 


(A)         
any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which
such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an
executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


 






    - 91 -


     


    

 


(B)           
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:


 


(I)               
in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with
respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction
of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to
any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption
from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income”
article of such tax treaty;


 


(II)             
an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


(III)          
in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender
is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder”
of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation”
described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and
(y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or


 


(IV)         
to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E,
a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership
and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign
Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such
direct and indirect partner;


 


(C)              any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in
such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a
Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of any
other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding
Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 






    - 92 -


     


    

 


(D)            
if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA
if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section
1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal
Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary
for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.
Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement.


 


Each Lender agrees that if any form or
certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification
or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 


(h)               Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment
of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request
of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party
is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection,
in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection the
payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party
would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or
otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This
subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other
information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(i)                
Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of
the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

IV Borrowing Base Properties


 


Section
4.1          
Eligibility of Properties.


 


(a)              
Initial Borrowing Base Properties. The Properties identified on Schedule 4.1 shall, on the Effective
Date, be the initial Borrowing Base Properties, and the Unencumbered Asset Value initially attributable to such Borrowing Base
Properties shall be as set forth in the Compliance Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent on the Effective Date.


 


(b)              
Additional Borrowing Base Properties. If after the Effective Date the Borrower desires that any additional Hotel
Property be included in the Unencumbered Pool, the Borrower shall so designate such Hotel Property as a “Borrowing Base Property”
pursuant to any Compliance Certificate from time to time delivered hereunder. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of
such Compliance Certificate, such Hotel Property shall be included in the Unencumbered Pool, in which event such Hotel Property
shall thereafter constitute a Borrowing Base Property; provided, however, that the Operating Property Value of such Hotel
Property shall not be taken into account in determining the Unencumbered Asset Value unless and until the Borrower shall deliver
to the Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate that includes such Hotel Property in the Unencumbered Pool; provided,
further, however, that in no event shall Properties owned by, or subject to a Qualified Ground Lease to, any Excluded FelCor Subsidiary
be included in the Unencumbered Pool so long as such FelCor Subsidiary constitutes an Excluded FelCor Subsidiary.


 


Section

[Intentionally Omitted].


 


Section
4.3          
Removal of Properties.


 


The Borrower
may, upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time as
the Administrative Agent may agree), request removal of a Hotel Property from the Unencumbered Pool, subject to the following
conditions: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred that is continuing (other than a Default or Event of
Default that would be cured by removal of such Hotel Property from the Unencumbered Pool) or would result therefrom and (b)
the Borrower shall have delivered to Administrative Agent a Compliance Certificate, prepared as of the last day of the most
recent fiscal quarter, evidencing compliance with the covenants set forth in Section 10.1 as if such Hotel Property
had not been included in the Unencumbered Pool. Upon Administrative Agent’s confirmation that the conditions to such
removal have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall so notify (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed more than
five (5) Business Days after request therefor) Borrower and the Lenders in writing specifying the date of such removal.

Section
5.1         
Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.


 


(a)          
Capital Adequacy. If any Lender determines that any Regulatory Change affecting such Lender or any lending office
of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity ratios or requirements, has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations
in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies
of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time, within thirty (30)
days after written demand by such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate
such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 


(b)          
Additional Costs. In addition to, and not in limitation of the immediately preceding subsection (a), the Borrower
shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine
to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it reasonably determines are attributable
to its making or maintaining, continuing or converting of any Loans or its obligation to make, maintain, continue or convert any
Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital or liquidity in respect of its
Loans or its Revolving Credit Commitments (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional
Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:


 


(i)                
except as provided in Section 3.10(c), changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or its Revolving Credit Commitments (other than
Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and “Connection
Income Taxes” pursuant to Section 3.10(a));


 


(ii)             
imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirements (other than
Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other similar reserve requirement applicable to any
other category of liabilities or category of extensions of credit or other assets by reference to which the interest rate on Loans
is determined relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, or other credit
extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by such Lender (or its parent corporation), or any commitment of such Lender (including,
without limitation, the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender hereunder);

(iii)           
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender
could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital
adequacy and liquidity); or


 


(iv)            
imposes on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this
Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender.


 


(c)          
Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans. Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding
subsections (a) and (b), if by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on
or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that
includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category
of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on
the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into,
LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5
shall apply).


 


(d)          
Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding
subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital
guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or
deemed applicable any Tax (other than Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded
Taxes” and “Connection Income Taxes”), reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against
or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to any Issuing Bank
of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations
in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of
Credit, then, upon written demand by such Issuing Bank or such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Issuing Bank or,
in the case of such Lender, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such
Issuing Bank or such Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Issuing Bank or such Lender for
such increased costs or reductions in amount.


 






    - 96 -


     


    

 


(e)           Notification
and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, as the case
may be, agrees to notify the Borrower (and in the case of an Issuing Bank or a Lender, to notify the Administrative Agent) of
any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender
to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided,
however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender to give such notice shall not release
the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder; provided further, that none of the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Banks or the Lenders shall be entitled to claim any additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other
additional amount under this Article V if such Person fails to provide such notice to the Borrower within
180 days of the date the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, becomes aware of
the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional amount; provided
further that, if such occurrence giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day
period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The Administrative Agent,
each Issuing Bank and each Lender, as the case may be, agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and, in the case of an Issuing Bank
or a Lender, to the Administrative Agent as well) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and amount of
each request for compensation under this Section, provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Section 5.1, in the case of any Regulatory Change described in clauses (x) or (y) of the
definition of Regulatory Change, it shall be a condition to a Lender’s exercise of its rights, if any, under this Section 5.1
that such Lender shall generally be exercising similar rights with respect to borrowers under similar agreements where
available. Determinations by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, of the effect of
any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.


 


Section
5.2          
Suspension of LIBOR Loans.


 


Anything herein to
the contrary notwithstanding, subject to the provisions of Exhibit M, if, with respect to any LIBOR Daily Loans, on any
day, or, with respect to any LIBOR Loans (other than LIBOR Daily Loans), on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest
Period:


 


(a)          
the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive) that reasonable and adequate means do
not exist for ascertaining LIBOR as of such day or for such Interest Period;


 


(b)          
the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates
for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant
maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein; or


 


(c)          
the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the
relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans
for such day or Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining
LIBOR Loans for such day or Interest Period;


 


then the Administrative Agent shall give
the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under
no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower
shall, (i) with respect to any LIBOR Daily Loan, on such day, and (ii) with respect to any LIBOR Loan (other than LIBOR Daily Loans),
on the last day of each current Interest Period for such outstanding LIBOR Loan, either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into
a Base Rate Loan.

Section
5.3          
Illegality.


 


Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding)
that it is unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly
notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make
or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again
make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5 shall be applicable).


 


Section
5.4          
Compensation.


 


The Borrower shall
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts
as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its reasonable discretion shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender for any
loss, cost or expense attributable to:


 


(a)          
any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan) or Conversion
of a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan), made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration)
on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or


 


(b)          
any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions
precedent specified in Section 6.2 to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan) from such Lender
on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan) or Continue a
LIBOR Loan (other than a LIBOR Daily Loan) on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.


 


Not in limitation of
the foregoing, such compensation shall include, without limitation, in the case of any such LIBOR Loan, an amount equal to the
then present value of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such LIBOR Loan for the remainder of the Interest
Period at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loan, less (B) the amount of interest that would accrue on the same LIBOR Loan
for the same period if LIBOR were set on the date on which such LIBOR Loan was repaid, prepaid or Converted or the date on which
the Borrower failed to borrow, Convert or Continue such LIBOR Loan, as applicable, calculating present value by using as a discount
rate LIBOR quoted on such date; provided, that in no event shall such compensation include any loss of anticipated profits.
Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth in reasonable
detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Any such statement shall be
conclusive, provided that the determinations in such statement are made on a reasonable basis
and in good faith.

Section
5.5          
Treatment of Affected Loans.


 


If the
obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be
suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2, or Section 5.3 then such
Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current
Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 5.1(c), Section 5.2,
or Section 5.3 on such earlier date as such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, may specify to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as applicable)) and, unless and until such Lender or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1, Section 5.2,
or Section 5.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:


 


(a)          
to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that
would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and


 


(b)         
all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as
Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base
Rate Loans.


 


If such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as applicable, gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, as applicable) that
the circumstances specified in Section 5.1(c) or 5.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s
LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, agrees
to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then
such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s)
for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, or, with respect to LIBOR Daily Loans, on the next Business Day, to the extent necessary so that,
after giving effect thereto, (A) if such Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender, all Revolving Credit Loans held by the Revolving
Credit Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Revolving Credit Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and
Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, (B) if such Lender is a Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Lender, all Tranche A-2 Term Loans held by the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Commitments, and (C) if such Lender is a Tranche A-1 Term Loan Lender, all applicable Tranche A-1 Term Loans held
by the applicable Tranche A-1 Term Loan Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Tranche A-1 Term Loan Lender are held pro rata
(as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective applicable Tranche A-1 Term Loans.

Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, then the Borrower may either (A) demand that such
Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its
Revolving Credit Commitments, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment, its Loans and all of its other interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the
provisions of Section 13.6(b) for a purchase price equal to (x) the aggregate principal balance of all Loans then
owing to the Affected Lender, plus (y) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the Affected Lender under Section
2.3(j) that have not been repaid, plus (z) any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to
the Affected Lender, or any other amount as may be mutually agreed upon by such Affected Lender and Eligible Assignee, or (B)
terminate the Revolving Credit Commitment or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment (in each case, if applicable) of such Affected
Lender and notwithstanding Section 3.2 or any other provision herein to the contrary requiring the pro rata
treatment of payments to the Lenders, repay the entire Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans
(if and as applicable) held by such Affected Lender, together with all accrued interest thereon, whereupon such Affected
Lender shall no longer be a party hereto. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate
in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section and the Affected Lender shall promptly
execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof,
including an appropriate Assignment and Assumption, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender or
any other Lender be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible
Assignee. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and
expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders. The terms of
this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation
owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 3.10, 5.1 or
5.4) with respect to any period up to the date of replacement.


 


Section
5.7          
Change of Lending Office.


 


Each Lender agrees
that it will, in good faith, use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions)
to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in
Sections 3.10, 5.1 or 5.3 to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long
as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such
Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.


 


Section
5.8          
Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.


 


Calculation of all
amounts payable to a Lender under this Article shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Loans through
the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal
to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period (or, in the case of LIBOR Daily
Loans, a maturity of one month); provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees
fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article.

(b)

or which with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute, a default or event of default by, any Loan
Party or any other Subsidiary under any agreement (other than this Agreement) or judgment, decree or order to which any such Person
is a party or by which any such Person or any of its respective properties may be bound where such default or event of default

receive material non-public information with respect to the Parent Guarantor or its securities) shall designate to the Administrative
Agent one or more persons who are entitled to receive and view Information Materials containing material non-public information
to the same extent as Lenders that are not “public-side” Lenders.

cause the other Loan Parties, to provide, promptly upon any such request, to such Lender, such Loan Party’s name, address,
tax identification number and/or such other identification information as shall be necessary for such Lender to comply with federal
law. An “account” for this purpose may include, without limitation, a deposit account, cash management service, a transaction
or asset account, a credit account, a loan or other extension of credit, and/or other financial services product.

11.3       Intentionally
Omitted.


 


Section
11.4       Marshaling;
Payments Set Aside.


 


None of the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Specified Derivatives Provider shall be under any obligation to
marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other party or against or in payment of any or all of the Guaranteed
Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent and/or any Issuing
Bank and/or any Lender and/or any Specified Derivatives Provider or the Administrative Agent and/or any Issuing Bank and/or
any Lender and/or any Specified Derivatives Provider enforce their security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and
such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party
under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such recovery, the
Guaranteed Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor,
shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or setoff
had not occurred.

Section
11.5       Allocation
of Proceeds.


 


(a)         
Any payment required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(i) shall be applied in the following order
and priority:


 


First,
to payment of interest on Swingline Loans until paid in full;


 


Second,
to payment of interest on all Revolving Credit Loans, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, until paid in full;


 


Third,
to payment of principal on Swingline Loans until paid in full;


 


Fourth,
to payment of principal of all Revolving Credit Loans to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders until
paid in full; and


 


Fifth,
to amounts to be deposited into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account in respect of Letters of Credit.


 


(b)         
If an Event of Default exists and maturity of any of the Obligations has been accelerated or the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date or either Term Loan Maturity Date has occurred, all payments received by the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents
(or by any Lender as the result of the exercise of rights under Section 13.4), in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations
shall be applied in the following order and priority:


 


First,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including
attorney fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, each Issuing Bank in its capacity as such and each
Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, ratably among the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender in
proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause payable to them;


 


Second,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal
and interest) payable to the Lenders under the Loan Documents, including attorney fees, ratably among the Lenders in proportion
to the respective amounts described in this clause payable to them;


 


Third,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Swingline Loans;


 


Fourth,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and Reimbursement
Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause payable
to them;


 






    - 137 -


     


    

 


Fifth,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Swingline Loans;


 


Sixth,
to payment of that portion of the Guaranteed Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations,
other Letter of Credit Liabilities and payment obligations then owing under Specified Derivatives Contracts, ratably among the
Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Specified Derivatives Providers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause
payable to them; provided, however, to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to this clause are
attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of an outstanding Letter of Credit, such amounts shall be paid to the Administrative
Agent for deposit into the Letter of Credit Collateral Account; and


 


Seventh,
the balance, if any, after all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise
required by Applicable Law.


 


(c)         
Any payment required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.8(b)(iii) shall be applied pro rata among
the Facilities and the aggregate outstanding principal amount under the Pari Passu Debt to the extent required to reduce the Leverage
Ratio to or below 6.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis after taking into account any additional optional prepayments made pursuant
to Section 2.8(a). The aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments will be temporarily reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis
by the respective amounts of such portion of the mandatory prepayments that were applied to the prepayment of the Revolving Credit
Loans until the next Prepayment Provisions Termination Date; provided, however, that, with respect to any Net Proceeds
from asset sales applied as a prepayment by the Borrower prior to the end of the applicable Reinvestment Period for such Net Proceeds,
the Borrower may apply such Net Proceeds to prepay (including a partial prepayment of) any of the Facilities or the outstanding
principal amount of any Pari Passu Debt in such manner as it may designate; provided, further, that such temporary
reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be automatically terminated as of such Prepayment Provisions Termination Date.
For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that any voluntary or mandatory prepayment has the effect of reducing the Leverage Ratio
to or below 6.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis, the mandatory prepayment provisions applicable following a Collateral Trigger Date
shall terminate (the earlier of such date and the Collateral Release Date, the “Prepayment Provisions Termination Date”).
During a Prepayment Period, the Borrower shall not be permitted to request any Revolving Credit Loans that would cause the aggregate
Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (after accounting for any temporary
reductions to availability pursuant to this Section 11.5(c)).


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations arising under Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be excluded from the application described
above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative
Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives Provider. Each Specified Derivatives Provider not a party to this
Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged
and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article XII for itself and its Affiliates
as if a “Lender” party hereto.

Section
11.6       Letter
of Credit Collateral Account.


 


(a)          
As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, the Borrower hereby
pledges and grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Revolving
Credit Lenders as provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account established pursuant to the requirements of Section 2.14 or Section 3.9 (as applicable) and the
balances from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided
for below). The balances from time to time in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter
of Credit Liabilities until applied by the Administrative Agent as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding, funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this
Section, Section 2.14 or Section 3.9 (as applicable).


 


(b)          
Amounts on deposit in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account shall not be invested without the consent of the Borrower
and shall only be invested in Cash Equivalents approved by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. All such investments and
reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent for the ratable
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders; provided, that all earnings on such investments
will be credited to and retained in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable
care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised
such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds
deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for
taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account.


 


(c)          
If a Drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower
and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to use the monies deposited in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to reimburse
the applicable Issuing Bank for the payment made by such Issuing Bank to the beneficiary with respect to such Drawing.


 


(d)          
If an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent, if instructed by the Requisite Lenders, shall at any time and from
time to time elect to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply the proceeds thereof to the Letter of Credit Collateral
Account and apply or cause to be applied such proceeds and any other balances in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account to the
payment of any of the Letter of Credit Liabilities due and payable.


 






    - 139 -


     


    

 


(e)           So
long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in or credited to the Letter of Credit
Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing, the
Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but
without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account
(excepting amounts deposited pursuant to clause fifth of Section 3.9(b)) as exceed the aggregate amount of
Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time. When all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and no
Letters of Credit remain outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any
recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, the balances remaining in the Letter of Credit Collateral Account (excepting
amounts deposited pursuant to clause fifth of Section 3.9(b), which shall be applied as provided in Section
3.9(b)).


 


(f)           
The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges
for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent’s administration of the Letter of Credit Collateral Account
and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.


 


Section
11.7       Rescission
of Acceleration by Requisite Lenders.


 


If at any time after
acceleration of the maturity of the Loans and the other Obligations, the Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments
on account of principal of the Obligations which shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal
and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified in this Agreement) and all Events of
Default and Defaults (other than nonpayment of principal of and accrued interest on the Obligations due and payable solely by virtue
of acceleration) shall become remedied or waived to the satisfaction of the Requisite Lenders, then by written notice to the Borrower,
the Requisite Lenders may elect, in the sole discretion of such Requisite Lenders, to rescind and annul the acceleration and its
consequences. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind all of the Lenders to a decision which may be
made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right
to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are satisfied.


 


Section
11.8       Performance
by Administrative Agent.


 


If the Borrower or
any other Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative
Agent may, after notice to the Borrower, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower
or such other Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, the Borrower shall,
at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance
or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the
date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have
any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document.

Section
11.9       Rights
Cumulative.


 


(a)           Generally.
The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders under this Agreement and each of the
other Loan Documents and of the Specified Derivatives Providers under the Specified Derivatives Contracts shall be cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their
respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the Specified Derivatives
Providers may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any of the Issuing Banks, any of the Lenders
or any of the Specified Derivatives Providers in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single
or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or
right.


 


(b)         
Enforcement by Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan
Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or
any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be
instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article XI for the benefit of all
the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from
exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and
remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an Issuing Bank or as a Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder,
under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Specified Derivatives Provider from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to
its benefit under any Specified Derivatives Contract, (iv) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 13.4
(subject to the terms of Section 3.3), or (v) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings
on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided,
further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
then (x) the Requisite Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article XI
and (y) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 3.3,
any Lender may, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by
the Requisite Lenders. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to
or adopt on behalf of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment
or composition under any Debtor Relief Law affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline
Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of any claim of any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline
Lender in any such proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

ARTICLE
XII The Administrative Agent


 


Section
12.1       Appointment
and Authorization.


 


Each Lender
hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such
Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the
Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any
action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the
exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. In furtherance of the foregoing, and
not in limitation, each of the Lenders authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into one or more intercreditor
agreements, collateral agency agreements and Collateral Documents acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable
discretion with parties to any Pari Passu Debt, including (if applicable) for the purpose of acting as collateral agent for
the Secured Parties and the parties to such Pari Passu Debt (and each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Article
XII shall be deemed to include a reference to the Administrative Agent acting in such capacity, if applicable). Nothing
herein shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or to impose on the
Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the use of the terms “Agent”, “Administrative Agent”, “agent” and
similar terms in the Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or
other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead, use of such terms is
merely a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between
independent contracting parties. The Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Lender, promptly
upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent, copies of each of the financial statements, certificates, notices and other
documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article IX that the Borrower is not otherwise required to
deliver directly to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy
(or, where appropriate, an original) of any document, instrument, agreement, certificate or notice furnished to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan
Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or
collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any
action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from
acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other
provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the
Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or
which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent may exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence
of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have directed the Administrative Agent otherwise. Without
limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of
the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in
accordance with the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, or where applicable, all the Lenders. The Lenders hereby authorize
the Administrative Agent to release any Guarantor from the Guaranty (i) in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon
satisfaction of the conditions to release set forth in Section 8.14 or Section 8.15; (ii) if
approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders or all of the Lenders hereunder, as required under the
circumstances; or (iii) upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.11.
In connection with any such release of a Guarantor pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall (and is
hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense,
all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release (any execution
and delivery of such documents being without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent).


 






    - 142 -


     


    

 


Section
12.2       Wells
Fargo as Lender.


 


Wells Fargo shall have
the same rights and powers as a Lender or as a Specified Derivatives Provider, as the case may be, under this Agreement and any
other Loan Document and under any Specified Derivatives Contract, as the case may be, as any other Lender or Specified Derivatives
Provider and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Wells Fargo in each case in its individual capacity. Wells Fargo and its Affiliates
may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures
of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any
other Affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the Issuing Banks, the other Lenders
or any Specified Derivatives Providers. Further, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate may accept fees and other consideration
from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement or any Specified Derivatives Contract or otherwise without having
to account for the same to the Issuing Banks, the other Lenders or any Specified Derivatives Providers. The Issuing Banks and the
Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Wells Fargo or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower,
other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations
in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information
to them.


 


Section
12.3       Approvals
of Lenders.


 


All
communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or
disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a
description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall
advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe
the matter or issue to be resolved, and (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not
previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative
Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved. Unless a Lender shall give written notice to the
Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent within
ten (10) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the express terms of the
Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented
to such recommendation or determination.


 






    - 143 -


     


    

 


Section
12.4       Notice
of Events of Default.


 


The Administrative
Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative
Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such
Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If any Lender (excluding the Lender
which is also serving as the Administrative Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to
the Administrative Agent such a “notice of default”; provided, a Lender’s failure to provide such a “notice
of default” to the Administrative Agent shall not result in any liability of such Lender to any other party to any of the
Loan Documents. Further, if the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default,” the Administrative Agent
shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.


 


Section
12.5       Administrative
Agent’s Reliance.


 


Notwithstanding
any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related
Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, except for its or their own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection with its duties
expressly set forth herein or therein as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: may consult with legal counsel (including its own
counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it
and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties: (a) makes any warranty
or representation to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person or shall be responsible to any Lender, any Issuing Bank
or any other Person for any statement, warranty or representation made or deemed made by the Borrower, any other Loan Party
or any other Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (b) shall have any duty to
ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part
of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person;
(c) shall be responsible to any Lender or any Issuing Bank for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished
pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative
Agent on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks in any such collateral; (d) shall have any liability in respect of
any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties contained in any of the Loan Documents or any other
document, instrument, agreement, certificate or statement delivered in connection therewith; and (e) shall incur any
liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or
other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail) believed by it to be genuine and signed,
sent or given by the proper party or parties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under the Loan Documents
by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the
selection of such agent or attorney-in-fact as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable
judgment.

Section
12.6       Indemnification
of Administrative Agent.


 


Regardless of
whether the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are consummated, each Lender agrees to
indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the
Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), from and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature
whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent but not as a “Lender”) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan
Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be
liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however,
that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders, if expressly required
hereunder) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not
reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable
share of any out of pocket expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of the counsel to the Administrative Agent)
incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration, or
enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or
responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce
the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought
against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or
the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out of pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by
the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative
Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the
Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the
payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this
Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any
Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

Section
12.7       Lender
Credit Decision, Etc.


 


Each of the Lenders
and each Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties has
made any representations or warranties to such Issuing Bank or such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter
taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate, shall be
deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Issuing Bank or any Lender. Each of
the Lenders and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other
Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on the financial statements
of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent
due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its
review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such
other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that
it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent
or any of their respective Related Parties, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate
at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent
shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of the
Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for therein or to inspect the properties or books of, or make any
other investigation of, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Subsidiary. Except for notices, reports and other documents

Section
12.8       Successor
Administrative Agent.


 


The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof
to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may be removed as Administrative Agent by all of the Lenders (other
than the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent) and, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, the Borrower upon
thirty (30) days’ prior written notice if the Administrative Agent (i) is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in
a final, non-appealable judgment to have committed gross negligence or willful misconduct in the course of performing its
duties hereunder or (ii) has become or is insolvent or has become the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or
has had a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or
indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment. Upon any such resignation or
removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which appointment shall,
provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the
immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the current
Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the current Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the
Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be
willing to serve, and otherwise shall be an Eligible Assignee; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify
the Borrower and the Lenders that no Lender has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become
effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to
be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until
such time as a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed as provided for above in this Section; provided,
further that such Lenders and such Issuing Bank so acting directly shall be and be deemed to be protected by all indemnities
and other provisions herein for the benefit and protection of the Administrative Agent as if each such Lender or Issuing Bank
were itself the Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the current Administrative Agent, and the current Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. Any resignation by an Administrative Agent shall also constitute
the resignation as an Issuing Bank and as a Swingline Lender by the Lender then acting as Administrative Agent (the
“Resigning Lender”), which resignation shall be effective upon the agreement of the Lender that is the
successor Administrative Agent (or another Lender approved by the Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld) to assume the Swingline Commitment and the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder. Upon the acceptance
of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder and the assumption of the Swingline Commitment and the
rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder by the Lender that is the successor Administrative Agent (or another
Lender approved by the Borrower as provided above) (i) the Resigning Lender shall be discharged from all duties and
obligations of an Issuing Bank and a Swingline Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the
successor applicable Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for all Letters of Credit issued by the
Resigning Lender as an Issuing Bank outstanding at the time of such succession (which letters of credit issued in
substitutions shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the
Resigning Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the Resigning Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit. After
any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XII
shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may assign its
rights and duties under the Loan Documents to any of its Affiliates by giving the Borrower and each Lender prior written
notice.

Section
12.9       Titled
Agents.


 


The Syndication Agents
and Documentation Agents, in such respective capacities, assume no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation,
for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles
given to the Syndication Agents and Documentation Agents are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part
of the Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Borrower or any other Loan Party
and the use of such titles does not impose on the Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents any duties or obligations greater
than those of any other Lender or entitle the Syndication Agents or Documentation Agents to any rights other than those to which
any other Lender is entitled.


 


Section
12.10   Specified Derivatives Contracts.


 


No Specified Derivatives
Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 11.5 by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Loan Document shall
have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document
or otherwise in respect of any Loan Document other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly
provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XII to the contrary, the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Specified
Derivatives Contracts unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Specified Derivatives Contracts, together
with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Specified Derivatives Provider.

of the Loans, this Agreement and, with respect to a Revolving Credit Lender, the Revolving Credit Commitments; or


 


(iv)            
such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole

proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation to reimburse the Lenders and the Issuing Banks for fees and
expenses of counsel in connection with the matters described in items (c) and (d) above shall be limited to (x) one law firm
for the Administrative Agent, (y) one other law firm retained by the Requisite Lenders, together with (in the case of (x) and

the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of the Parent Guarantor or
the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not any or all of the Loans and all
other Obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 11.2,
and although such Obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section,
if any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over
immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.9 and,
pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide

Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is
not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, (2)
the aggregate amount of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or,
if the applicable Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the
assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, and (3) the principal outstanding balance of the Tranche A-1 Term Loan subject
to such assignment (in each case, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered
to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date)
shall not be less than $10,000,000 in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment and $10,000,000 in the case of
any assignment in respect of a Term Loan, unless each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower otherwise consents in its sole
discretion; provided, however, that if, after giving effect to such assignment, the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment
or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment held by such assigning Lender or the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of such assigning
Lender, as applicable, would be less than $10,000,000 in the case of a Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Credit Loans or
$10,000,000 in the case of a Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment or Term Loan, then such assigning Lender shall assign the entire
amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, and the Loans at the time owing to
it.

(ii)          
Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the
assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan, the Revolving Credit Commitment
or the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning
all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-rata basis.


 


(iii)           
Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B)
of this subsection (b) and, in addition:


 


(A)            
the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being agreed that the Borrower’s
withholding of consent to an assignment that would result in (i) the Borrower’s having to pay amounts under Section 3.10
as a result of the admission of an assignee or (ii) the admission of an assignee that refuses to receive confidential information
subject to the confidentiality requirements set forth herein shall in each case be deemed to be reasonable)) shall be required
unless (x) a Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment
unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received
notice thereof;


 


(B)             
the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for
assignments in respect of (x) a Revolving Credit Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender
with a Revolving Credit Commitment, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender, (y) a Tranche
A-2 Term Loan Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not already a Lender with a Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment,
an Affiliate of such a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such a Lender or (z) a Term Loan to a Person who is not
a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and


 


(C)             
the consent of each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender shall be required for any assignment in respect of a Revolving
Credit Commitment.


 


(iv)          Assignment and Acceptance; Notes. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $4,500 (or $7,500 in the event that such
transferor Lender is a Defaulting Lender) for each assignment (which fee the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion,
elect to waive), and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
If requested by the transferor Lender or the assignee, upon the consummation of any assignment, the transferor Lender, the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that (i) to the extent requested by the assignee or transferor Lender,
new Notes are issued to the assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate and (ii) any Notes held by the transferor Lender
are promptly returned to the Borrower for cancellation (and, to the extent not so returned, the Borrower shall be entitled to receive
a customary indemnity agreement of the type described in Section 2.11(c)(ii)(A) from such transferor Lender).


 






    - 158 -


     


    

 


(v)            No
Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates
or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or to any Person who, upon becoming a Lender
hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).


 


(vi)          No
Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person or a holding company, investment vehicle
or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person.


 


(vii)        
Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender
hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein,
the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient,
upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations,
or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable
pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee
and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender
to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon),
and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline
Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment
of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with
the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes
of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.


 


Subject to
acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately following subsection (c), from
and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this
Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a
Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease
to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.4, 13.2 and 13.10 and the
other provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 13.11 with respect to
facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release
of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a
Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes
of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with the
immediately following subsection (d).


 






    - 159 -


     


    

 


(c)              
Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of
the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries
in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice.


 


(d)               Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned
and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or
Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans owing to
it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and
(iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 13.4 or as otherwise expressly stated herein, no Participant shall have any rights
or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells
such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any
amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (w) increase such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment, (x) extend the date on which any scheduled payment of principal on the Loans or portions
thereof owing to such Lender is to be made, (y) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon (other than a
waiver of default interest and changes in calculation of the Leverage Ratio that may indirectly affect pricing) or
(z) release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as contemplated by Sections 8.14 or 8.15)
or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty (except as contemplated by Sections 8.14
or 8.15) or release the Parent Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case, as applicable to that
portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations that are subject to the participation. The Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10, 5.1, 5.4 (subject to the requirements and
limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.10(g) (it being understood that the documentation
required under Section 3.10(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were
a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided
that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 3.9(h) or 5.6 as if it were an
assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.1
or 3.10, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. Each
Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate
with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.9(h) or 5.6 with respect to any Participant. To the
extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.4 as though it
were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.3 as though it were a
Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the
Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and
stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the
“Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a
Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document)
to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of
credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The
entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)              
Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights
under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal
Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder
or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.


 


(f)               
No Registration. Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification
of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America
or of any other jurisdiction.


 


(g)              
USA Patriot Act Notice; Compliance. In order for the Administrative Agent to comply with “know your customer”
and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act, prior to any Lender that is organized
under the laws of a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America becoming a party hereto, the Administrative Agent may
request, and such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent, its name, address, tax identification number and/or such other
identification information as shall be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with federal law.

consent of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 6.1 or
6.2. or of any Default or Event of Default and the forbearance with respect to such Default or Event of Default is not considered
an increase in, or extension or reinstatement of, the Revolving Credit Commitments or Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments of any
Lenders);

reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or that will be charged (subject to the last sentence of Section 13.7(f))

(xi)

directly and adversely affected thereby.


 


(c)            Non-Consenting Lenders. If any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed
amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender or each Lender
directly affected thereby and that has been approved by the Requisite Lenders, the Borrower may replace such Non-Consenting Lender
in accordance with Section 5.6; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result
of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be
made pursuant to this subsection (c)).


 


(d)           Permitted
Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Loan Modification Offers and Permitted Amendments
(as hereinafter defined) shall be permitted in accordance with this subsection (d), regardless of the preceding provisions of
this Section 13.7. The Borrower may make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”)
to all the Lenders to make one or more Permitted Amendments (as defined below). Permitted Amendments shall become effective
only with respect to the Loans, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders that accept
the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”). The Borrower and each
Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a loan modification agreement (a “Loan
Modification Agreement”) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to
evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. In connection with any Loan
Modification Offer, the Borrower may, at its sole option, terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the
Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments, and/or repay or reduce any Loans, of one or more of the Lenders that are not Accepting
Lenders. Additionally, to the extent the Borrower has reduced the Revolving Credit Commitments, Tranche A-2 Term Loan
Commitments and/or Loans of such Lenders, it may request any other financial institution (with the consent of the
Administrative Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably conditioned, delayed or withheld) to provide a commitment to make
loans on the terms set forth in such Loan Modification Offer in an amount not to exceed the amount of the Revolving Credit
Commitments, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments or Loans reduced pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto
hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the
extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and
only with respect to the Loans, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments of the Accepting
Lenders (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit
Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments, it being understood that all borrowings
and repayments of Revolving Credit Loans (as applicable) will be made pro rata between all Revolving Credit Loans and all
repayments of Term Loans will be made pro rata between all applicable Term Loans; provided that to the extent any
Permitted Amendment extends the final maturity of the Revolving Credit Commitments or Loans of the Accepting Lenders, the
applicable Loans and related Obligations may be repaid on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the applicable Term Loan
Maturity Date (as applicable) on a non-ratable basis with the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments or Loans of the
Accepting Lenders. “Permitted Amendments” shall be an extension of the scheduled maturity of the applicable
Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loans of the Accepting Lenders, together with any one or
more of the following: (i) a change in rate of interest (including a change to the Applicable Margin and/or a provision
establishing a minimum rate), premium, fees or other amount with respect to the applicable Revolving Credit Loans and
Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loans of the Accepting Lenders (in each case effective after the scheduled maturity
of the Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans), (ii) additional fees to the Accepting Lenders and (iii) such other
amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative
Agent, to give effect to the foregoing Permitted Amendments.

(e)               Amendment
of Administrative Agent’s Duties, Etc. No amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any amendment, waiver or consent
relating to Section 2.4 or the obligations of the Swingline Lenders under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of each
Swingline Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3 or the obligations of the Issuing
Banks under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such
action, require the written consent of each Issuing Bank. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3
or the obligations of the Issuing Banks under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders
required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of each Issuing Bank. Any amendment, waiver or consent
with respect to any Loan Document that (i) diminishes the rights of a Specified Derivatives Provider in a manner or to an
extent dissimilar to that affecting the Lenders or (ii) increases the liabilities or obligations of a Specified Derivatives
Provider shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the consent of the Lender that
is (or having an Affiliate that is) such Specified Derivatives Provider. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no
Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any
amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected
with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Revolving Credit Commitments
of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the written consent of such Defaulting Lender,
(y) the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitments of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased, reinstated or extended without the
written consent of such Defaulting Lender, and (z) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all
Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders in
any material respect shall require the written consent of such Defaulting Lender. No waiver shall extend to or affect any
obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of dealing or delay or
omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or
otherwise be prejudicial thereto. Any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such time as such
Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure
or other action by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of
Default. Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the
Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(f)               
Technical Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.7, if the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or
an inconsistency between provisions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such
provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely
affect the interests of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks. Any such amendment shall become effective without any further action
or consent of any of other party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.7,
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, (x) enter into amendments or modifications
to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (y) enter into additional Loan Documents, in each case, as the Administrative
Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or otherwise effectuate the terms of Exhibit
M in accordance with the terms of Exhibit M.


 


(g)               Release
of Collateral. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole
discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by a Loan Party on any Collateral or pursuant to a
Transferred Mortgage (i) on the date on which all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full (other
than (1) contingent indemnification obligations that have not been asserted, (2) Letters of Credit the expiration dates of
which extend beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date as permitted under Section 2.3(b) and in respect of which the
Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such Section and Section 2.14 and (3) to the extent
arrangements reasonably satisfactory to a Specified Derivatives Provider under a Specified Derivatives Contract have been
entered into, Specified Derivatives Obligations under such Specified Derivatives Contract), (ii) as required to effect any
sale or other disposition of such Collateral or Property subject to a Transferred Mortgage in connection with any exercise of
remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 11.2, (iii) upon the occurrence of a
Collateral Release Date in accordance with the terms and conditions of Sections 8.14 and 8.15 or (iv) with
respect to any Transferred Mortgages in accordance with the terms of Section 13.21. Any such release shall not in any
manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or
obligations of any Loan Party in respect of) all interests retained by any Loan Party, including the proceeds of any sale,
all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral so long as a Collateral Period is then in effect. The
Administrative Agent agrees, and is hereby authorized by the Lenders, promptly after the Borrower requests and at the
Borrower’s sole cost and expense, to furnish to the Borrower any release, termination or other agreement or
document evidencing the foregoing release as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower, and which release, termination or
other agreement or document shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and to deliver
to the Borrower any portion of such Collateral so released that is in the Administrative Agent’s possession.

Section
13.8       Nonliability
of Administrative Agent and Lenders.


 


The relationship between
the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower
and lender. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, the “Lender Parties”)
may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and partners  and/or their Affiliates.
No Lender Party shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower or any other Loan Party and no provision in this Agreement
or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to
create any fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or
any other Loan Party. No Lender Party undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter
in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.


 


Section
13.9       Confidentiality.


 


Except as
otherwise provided by Applicable Law, each of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees that it
shall not disclose and treat confidentially all non-public information furnished by the Borrower or on its behalf
pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement or otherwise in connection with any requested amendment, waiver or
modification of the Loan Documents but in any event may make disclosure: (a) to any of their respective Affiliates
(provided any such Affiliate shall agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section
or terms at least as restrictive as the terms of this Section); (b) as reasonably requested by any bona fide
Assignee, Participant or other permitted transferee in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Revolving Credit
Commitment, Tranche A-2 Term Loan Commitment, Loan or participations therein as permitted hereunder (provided they shall
agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (c) to any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivatives transaction relating to the Borrower and its
obligations (provided they shall agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section);

connection with any legal proceedings or as otherwise required by Applicable Law (in which case, such Person shall, to the
extent permitted by law, inform the Borrower promptly in advance thereof); (e) to the Administrative Agent’s, such
Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall
be notified of the confidential nature of the information and are or have been advised of their obligation to keep
information of this type confidential); (f) if an Event of Default exists, to any other Person, in connection with the
exercise by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders (or Specified Derivatives Provider) of rights
hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents (or under any Specified Derivatives Contract) or any action or proceeding
relating to any Loan Documents (or any Specified Derivatives Contract) or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder;
(g) to the extent such information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section
or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower; (h) to the extent requested by, or required to be disclosed
to, any nationally recognized rating agency or regulatory or similar authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such
as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it; (i) to bank trade
publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; (j) on
a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of
CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loan Documents; (k) to any other party hereto; and (l) with the consent of the Borrower.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender may disclose any such confidential
information, without notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, to Governmental Authorities in connection with any
regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender or in accordance with the regulatory
compliance policy of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender. As used in this Section, the term
“Information” means all information received from the Borrower, any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or
Affiliate relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available
to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower,
any other Loan Party, any other Subsidiary or any Affiliate.

The Parent Guarantor’s and the Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply
to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party
in such Indemnity Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all costs and expenses of any Indemnified Party

by the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the
Parent Guarantor and the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking
by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.


 


(e)              
An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to,
any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified
Party shall be reimbursed by the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party
in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties
of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that (i) if
the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower are required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Parent Guarantor
and the Borrower have provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the Parent Guarantor and the Borrower
have the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to
such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior
written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution
of, any of the other obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

Section
13.11   Termination; Survival.


 


At such time as (a) all
of the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated, (b) all of the Tranche A-2 Term

and in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such Section and Section 2.14), (d) none
of the Lenders is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and (e) all Obligations (other than obligations
which survive as hereafter provided in this Section 13.11 and contingent indemnification obligations that have not

the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the
other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such
party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party
ceased to be a party to this Agreement. Upon the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent agrees to deliver to the Borrower,
at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, written confirmation of the foregoing termination.


 


Section
13.12   Severability of Provisions.


 


If any provision under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable,
that provision shall be deemed severed from the Loan Documents, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions shall remain in full force as thought the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been part of the Loan
Documents.


 


Section
13.13   GOVERNING LAW.


 


THIS AGREEMENT SHALL

Subsidiaries.


 


Section
13.16   Independence of Covenants.


 


All covenants hereunder
shall be given in any jurisdiction independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such
covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or be otherwise within the limitations of, another covenant
shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.


 


Section
13.17   Limitation of Liability.


 


None of the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability with respect to, and
the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental,
or consequential or punitive damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related

Bank or any Lender or any of the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s Affiliates, officers,
directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or
in any way related to, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letters, or any of the transactions contemplated

Section
13.21   Transferred Mortgages.


 


(a)          
The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that as an accommodation to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Super-Majority
Lenders may, from time to time, in their sole discretion, accept the benefits of Mortgages encumbering real property located in
the State of New York assigned from time to time pursuant to the terms of this Section to the Administrative Agent, for its benefit
and the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (any such Mortgage, a “Transferred Mortgage”). The agreement
of the Administrative Agent and the Super-Majority Lenders to accept the benefit of a Transferred Mortgage in their sole discretion
will be subject to, among other things, (i) the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s reasonable determination that
the real property subject to such Transferred Mortgage is not in an area determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency
to have special flood hazards, and (ii) the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s receipt of all internal approvals
regarding flood compliance with respect to the applicable real property subject to such Transferred Mortgage.


 


(b)          
In connection with the acceptance of the benefits of a Transferred Mortgage by the Administrative Agent and the Super-Majority
Lenders, the Borrower shall cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent each of the following, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent:


 


(i)                
the originals (or if not available, copies, together with one or more lost note affidavits) of each outstanding promissory
note evidencing the Indebtedness secured by such Transferred Mortgage, duly endorsed (by allonge or otherwise) to the order of
the Administrative Agent (collectively, “Existing Mortgage Notes”) ;


 


(ii)             
an amended and restated promissory note (each a “Restated Mortgage Note”) which amends, restates and,
if applicable, consolidates the applicable Existing Mortgage Notes, which (x) shall be payable to the order of the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of itself, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, (y) shall be in an initial aggregate principal amount equal
to the principal amount of Loans advanced hereunder in connection with the transfer of such Existing Mortgage Notes to the Administrative
Agent for the benefit of itself, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and (z) shall incorporate by reference all of the applicable
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;


 






    - 172 -


     


    

 


(iii)           
a copy of such Transferred Mortgage, including all amendments thereto, showing all recording information thereon certified
to the knowledge of an authorized officer of the Borrower as being true, correct and complete, and any other underlying loan documents
relating to such Transferred Mortgage;


 


(iv)            
an assignment of such Transferred Mortgage, in recordable form, executed by each holder of the Indebtedness secured by such
Transferred Mortgage (or an authorized agent acting on behalf of each such holder);


 


(v)              
a modification to such Transferred Mortgage executed by the applicable Loan Parties, such modification, among other things,
to modify such Transferred Mortgage (x) to provide that it secures the applicable Restated Mortgage Note, (y) to provide that the
maximum principal sum of Obligations secured by such Transferred Mortgage at execution or in the future shall not exceed the initial
principal amount of the applicable Restated Mortgage Note and (z) to include language reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent to the effect that payments in respect of the Obligations shall not be deemed to reduce the amount of the Obligations secured
by such Transferred Mortgage until such time as the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations shall have been reduced to
the initial principal amount of the applicable Restated Mortgage Note;


 


(vi)            
terminations of, or assignments and modifications to, any assignment of leases and rents, financing statements and any other
document, instrument or agreement securing the Indebtedness secured by such Transferred Mortgage, as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request;


 


(vii)         
a copy of any Phase I (and Phase II, if necessary) Environmental Site Assessment report on the Property subject to such
Transferred Mortgage and such other diligence materials as the Administrative Agent and the Super-Majority Lenders may reasonably
require;


 


(viii)       
an environmental indemnity agreement executed by the Parent Guarantor in favor of the Administrative Agent for its benefit
and the benefit of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; and


 


(ix)            
such other documents, agreements and instruments as the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuing Banks and the Lenders
may reasonably request.


 


(c)           Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, including without limitation, Section
13.7(g), (i) so long as no Event of Default then exists or would exist after giving effect thereto, upon the
Borrower’s written request and at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, the Administrative Agent shall release
any or all of the Transferred Mortgages and any other agreements or filings evidencing the Lien of the Administrative Agent
pursuant to any such Transferred Mortgage or assign any or all of the Transferred Mortgages to any Person requested by the
Borrower (any such assignment to be without recourse or warranty whatsoever) and (ii) the Administrative Agent may in its
discretion, and shall at the direction of the Required Lenders, release any or all of the Transferred Mortgages if the
Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, reasonably determined that holding any of such Transferred Mortgages
could be detrimental to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, and so long as the Administrative Agent shall have given to
the Borrower written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to any such release; provided, however, the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to give any such prior notice to the Borrower if the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, has determined that delay of such release would be detrimental to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. For
the avoidance of doubt, and without limitation of any requirement in connection with a release of a Hotel Property from the
Unencumbered Pool pursuant to Section 4.3, the Borrower shall not be required to repay any Indebtedness secured by such
Transferred Mortgages upon the release of such Transferred Mortgages.

(d)              
Not in limitation of any of the Borrower’s obligations under Section 13.2 or 13.10, the Borrower shall
and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and each other
Indemnified Party from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses
of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the fees and the reasonable
and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of one primary counsel to the Indemnified Parties, one specialty counsel to
the Indemnified Parties in each relevant specialty, one local counsel to the Indemnified Parties in each relevant local jurisdiction,
in each case selected by the Administrative Agent, and in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional
counsel to the affected Indemnified Parties that are similarly situated in each relevant jurisdiction in connection with any litigation,
investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection
with, arising out of, or by reason of, any Indemnity Proceeding which is in any way related directly or indirectly to (i) the failure
of any Person to pay any recording tax payable pursuant to N.Y. Tax Law, Ch. 60, Art. 11, Sec. 253 et seq. or other Applicable
Laws of the State of New York or any political subdivision of such State or (ii) any Transferred Mortgage.


 


(e)              
The Borrower represents and warrants that no Property encumbered by a Transferred Mortgage is located in an area determined
by the Federal Emergency Management Agency to have special flood hazards. If at any time in the future the Borrower becomes aware
that any portion of a Property encumbered by a Transferred Mortgage is located in an area determined by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency as special flood hazard area, then the Borrower will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and such Transferred Mortgage
relating to such Property which is in a special flood hazard area will be released pursuant to clause (c) above.

is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to,

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


 


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


 


(iii)           
the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of
any EEA Resolution Authority.


 


Section 13.23  
Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.


 


To the extent that
the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Derivatives Contracts or any other agreement or instrument
that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the
parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under
the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with
the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported
QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC
may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the
United States):


 


In the event a Covered
Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S.
Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and
obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or
such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under
the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights
in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a
BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under
the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such
Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special
Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the
United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect
to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit
Support.

a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order,
settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement,
any of the other Loan Documents, any Specified Derivatives Contract or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower,
and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied Party for the amounts so repaid
or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Administrative Agent or such other Guarantied
Party.


 


Section 10.            Subrogation.
Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of any other Loan Party, such Guarantor shall be
subrogated to the rights of the payee against such Loan Party; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any
right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of
action such Guarantor may have against such Loan Party arising by reason of any payment or performance by such Guarantor
pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in
full. If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or
causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
other Guarantied Parties and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against
the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held
by the Administrative Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.

Section 11.           
Payments Free and Clear. Section 3.10 of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable, mutatis mutandis, to all
payments required to be made by any Guarantor under this Guaranty.


 


Section 12.           
Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents, any Specified
Derivatives Contract or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, subject to Section 13.4 of the Credit Agreement,
each Guarantor hereby authorizes, each Guarantied Party, each Affiliate of a Guarantied Party and each Participant, at any time
while an Event of Default exists, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby
expressly waived, but in the case of a Guarantied Party (other than the Administrative Agent), an Affiliate of a Guarantied Party
(other than the Administrative Agent) or a Participant, subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent
and the Requisite Lenders exercised in their sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general
or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and
any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by a Guarantied Party, an Affiliate of a Guarantied Party or such Participant,
to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such
obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that any
Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation as fully as if such
Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation.


 


Section 13.           
Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and
the other Guarantied Parties that all obligations and liabilities of any other Loan Party to such Guarantor of whatever description,
including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from any other Loan Party (collectively, the “Junior
Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations. During the continuance of an
Event of Default, no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise)
from any Loan Party on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have
been indefeasibly paid in full.


 


Section 14.            Avoidance
Provisions. It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties that in any
Proceeding, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would
not otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such
Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and
(b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue
of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or
unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the
Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the
“Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder would
otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which such Guarantor
shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed
to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder (or any
other obligations of such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties), to be subject to avoidance
under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Administrative Agent and
the other Guarantied Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor
hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any
right or claim under this Section as against the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties that would not
otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition
of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied
Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guarantied Parties shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information
regarding such circumstances or risks.


 


Section 16.           
Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.


 


Section 17.           
Waiver of jury trial.


 


(a)               EACH
PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF
THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND
EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES,
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY
KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF
THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR
AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER GUARANTIED PARTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF
THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.


 






    F-7


     


    

 


(b)              
EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH OTHER GUARANTIED PARTY HEREBY AGREES THAT THE FEDERAL DISTRICT
COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE
JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THE
GUARANTIED PARTIES, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM
OR THEREFROM. EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE GUARANTIED PARTIES EXPRESSLY SUBMIT AND CONSENT IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN
ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH CLAIMS OR DISPUTES. EACH OF THE GUARANTORS HEREBY WAIVES
PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS ISSUED THEREIN, AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS
AND COMPLAINT, OR OTHER PROCESS OR PAPERS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO IT AT ITS ADDRESS FOR NOTICES
PROVIDED HEREIN. EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING
IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM
THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY ANY
PARTY OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY ANY PARTY OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.


 


(c)              
THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING
OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER
THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY.


 


Section 18.            Loan
Accounts. The Administrative Agent and each other Guarantied Party may maintain books and accounts setting forth the
amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, and in the case of
any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of the Guarantied Obligations or
otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed conclusive evidence of the amounts and other matters set
forth herein, absent manifest error. The failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party to maintain such
books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.


 






    F-8


     


    

 


Section 19.           
Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the other Guarantied Parties
in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof,
and no single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any of the other Guarantied Parties of any such right or remedy
shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.


 


Section 20.           
Termination. This Guaranty shall remain in full force with respect to each Guarantor until the earliest of the (x)
the date on which all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full (other than (1) contingent
indemnification obligations that have not been asserted, (2) Letters of Credit the expiration dates of which extend beyond the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date as permitted under Section 2.3(b) and in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the
requirements of such Section and Section 2.14 and (3) to the extent arrangements reasonably satisfactory to a Specified
Derivatives Provider under a Specified Derivatives Contract have been entered into, Specified Derivatives Obligations under such
Specified Derivatives Contract) or (y) solely with respect to such Guarantor (but not any other Guarantor), release or termination
of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, at which point this Guaranty
shall (solely with respect to such Guarantor, in the case of clause (y)), automatically terminate and have no further force and
effect (other than any provisions of this Guaranty that expressly survive the termination hereof). The Administrative Agent agrees
to execute and deliver such documents as are reasonably requested in accordance with Section 8.14 or Section 8.15
of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, by the Borrower or any such Guarantor to evidence such termination or release, at the Borrower’s
or such Guarantor’s sole cost and expense.


 


Section 21.           
Successors and Assigns. Each reference herein to the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party shall be
deemed to include such Person’s respective successors and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied
Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to each Guarantor shall
be deemed to include such Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding. The Guarantied
Parties may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation,
or grant or sell participations in any Guarantied Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor
and without releasing, discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. Subject to Section 13.9 of the
Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party to any
Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Assignee or Participant) of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower
or any Guarantor. No Guarantor may assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent and all other Guarantied Parties and any such assignment or other transfer to which the Administrative
Agent and all of the other Guarantied Parties have not so consented shall be null and void.

Section 22.            Joint

of each of the other Guarantors hereunder.


 


Section 23.           
Amendments. This Guaranty may not be amended except in a writing signed by the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders
if required under the terms of the Credit Agreement), the Administrative Agent and each Guarantor subject to Section 13.17 of the
Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any Subsidiary Guarantor may be released hereunder in accordance with the
terms of Section 8.14 or Section 8.15 of the Credit Agreement, as applicable, and any Subsidiary may become a Guarantor hereunder
by executing and delivering an Accession Agreement in accordance with Section 8.14 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) to the Administrative Agent or any other Guarantied Party at its respective address for notices provided for in the Credit
Agreement or Specified Derivatives Contract, as applicable, or (c) as to each such party at such other address as such party
shall designate in a written notice to the other parties. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if
mailed, upon the first to occur of receipt or the expiration of three (3) days after the deposit in the United States Postal Service
mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the address of a Guarantor or Guarantied Party at the addresses specified; (ii) if

provided, however, that in the case of immediately preceding clauses (i) through (iii), non-receipt of which the
sending party was not notified or as the result of a refusal to accept delivery shall be deemed receipt of such communication.


 


Section 26.           
Severability. In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.


 


Section 27.           
Headings. Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of
this Guaranty.


 


Section 28.            Limitation
of Liability. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guarantied Parties, nor any of their respective
Related Parties, shall have any liability with respect to, and each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue
any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by a
Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty, any of the other Loan Documents, any
Specified Derivatives Contract or any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents, or any Specified Derivatives Contract. Each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue
the Administrative Agent, any other Guarantied Party or any of their respective Related Parties, for punitive damages in
respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any
of the other Loan Documents, any Specified Derivatives Contract or any of the transactions contemplated by Credit Agreement
or financed thereby.

Section 29.           
Electronic Delivery of Certain Information. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that information regarding the
Guarantor may be delivered electronically pursuant to Section 9.5 of the Credit Agreement.


 


Section 30.           
Right of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree as among themselves that, if any Guarantor shall make an Excess
Payment, such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution from each other Guarantor in an amount equal to such other Guarantor’s
Contribution Share of such Excess Payment. The payment obligations of any Guarantor under this Section shall be subordinate
and subject in right of payment to the Guarantied Obligations until such time as the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly
paid and performed in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated, and none of the Guarantors shall exercise any right
or remedy under this Section against any other Guarantor until such Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and
performed in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. Subject to Section 10 of this Guaranty, this Section
shall not be deemed to affect any right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution that any Guarantor may have under
Applicable Law against any other Loan Party in respect of any payment of Guarantied Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
all rights of contribution against any Guarantor shall terminate from and after such time, if ever, that such Guarantor shall cease
to be a Guarantor in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Loan Documents.


 


Section 31.           
Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes
to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations
under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under
this Section for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under
this Section, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent
transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain
in full force and effect until termination of this Guaranty in accordance with Section 20 hereof. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor
intends that this Section constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support,
or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity
Exchange Act.


 


Section 32.            Non-Recourse.
Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Guaranty or any document or instrument delivered in
connection herewith or otherwise, and notwithstanding the fact that DBT Met Hotel Venture, LP (“DBT
LP”) and Knickerbocker Holding Partnership, L.P. (“Knickerbocker LP”) may be limited partnerships, by
its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent and each of the Guarantied Parties acknowledge and
agree that no Non-Recourse Party has any obligation hereunder and that no recourse shall be had hereunder or under any
document or instrument delivered in connection herewith, or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such
obligations or their creation, against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any Non-Recourse Party, through the
Administrative Agent or the Guarantied Parties or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil,
by or through a claim by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or the Guarantied Parties against any Non-Recourse Party,
by the enforcement of any assessment, by any legal or equity proceeding, by virtue of any applicable law, or otherwise. For
the avoidance of doubt, Knickerbocker LP is not a Guarantor as of the Effective Date.

provided, however, that, for purposes of calculating the Contribution Shares of the Guarantors in respect of any Excess Payment,

FORM OF ACCESSION AGREEMENT


 


THIS ACCESSION AGREEMENT
dated as of ____________, 20__, executed and delivered by ______________________, a _____________ (the “New Guarantor”),
in favor of (a) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in its capacity as
Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for its benefit and the benefit of the other Guarantied Parties (as
defined in the Guaranty referred to below) under that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December

among RLJ Lodging Trust, L.P. (the “Borrower”), RLJ Lodging Trust, the financial institutions party thereto and their
assignees under Section 13.6 thereof (the “Lenders”), the Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto,
and (b) the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lenders (the “Guarantied Parties”).


 


WHEREAS, pursuant
to the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders have agreed to make
available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement and/or
any Loan Document;


 


WHEREAS, the Specified
Derivatives Providers may from time to time enter into Specified Derivatives Contracts with the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary
of the Borrower;


 


WHEREAS, the New
Guarantor is owned and controlled by the Borrower, or is otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower;


 


WHEREAS, the Borrower,
the New Guarantor, and the existing Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent on each other in the conduct
of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain
financing from the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied Parties through their collective efforts;


 


WHEREAS, the New
Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Administrative Agent and the other Guarantied
Parties making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and from the Specified Derivatives
Providers entering into Specified Derivatives Contracts and, accordingly, the New Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s
obligations to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on the terms and conditions contained herein; and


 


WHEREAS, the New
Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition to the Guarantied Parties’ continuing to make such
financial accommodations to the Borrower.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, for
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the New Guarantor, the New Guarantor
agrees as follows:


 


Section 1.                Accession
to Guaranty. The New Guarantor hereby agrees that it is a “Guarantor” under that certain Third Amended and
Restated Guaranty dated as of ____________, 2019 (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time,
the “Guaranty”), made by the Guarantors party thereto in favor of the Administrative Agent, for its benefit and
the benefit of the other Guarantied Parties, and assumes all obligations of a “Guarantor” thereunder and
agrees to be bound thereby, all as if the New Guarantor had been an original signatory to the Guaranty. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the New Guarantor hereby:


 






    F-1


     


    

 


(a)              
irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity,

Additional Terms and Conditions to the
Disbursement Instruction Agreement


 


Definitions. The following capitalized
terms shall have the meanings set forth below:


 


“Authorized Representative”
means any or all of the Closing Disbursement Authorizers, Subsequent Disbursement Authorizers and Restricted Account Disbursement
Authorizers, as applicable.


“Receiving Bank”
means the financial institution where a Receiving Party maintains its account.


“Receiving Party”
means the ultimate recipient of funds pursuant to a Disbursement Request.


“Restricted Account”
means an account at Wells Fargo Bank, National Association associated with the Loan to which Borrower’s access is restricted.


 


Capitalized terms used in these Additional
Terms and Conditions to Disbursement Instruction Agreement and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such
terms in the body of the Agreement.


 


Disbursement Requests. Except as expressly
provided in the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent must receive Disbursement Requests in writing and no verbal requests
will be accepted. Disbursement Requests will only be accepted from the applicable Authorized Representatives designated in the
Disbursement Instruction Agreement. Disbursement Requests will be processed subject to satisfactory completion of Administrative
Agent’s customer verification procedures. Administrative Agent is only responsible for making a good faith effort to execute
each Disbursement Request and may use agents of its choice to execute Disbursement Requests. Funds disbursed pursuant to a Disbursement
Request may be transmitted directly to the Receiving Bank, or indirectly to the Receiving Bank through another bank, government
agency, or other third party that Administrative Agent considers to be reasonable. Administrative Agent will, in its sole discretion,
determine the funds transfer system and the means by which each Disbursement will be made. Administrative Agent may delay or refuse
to accept a Disbursement Request if the Disbursement would: (i) violate the terms of this Agreement; (ii) require use of a bank
unacceptable to Administrative Agent or prohibited by government authority; (iii) cause Administrative Agent to violate any Federal
Reserve or other regulatory risk control program or guideline; or (iv) otherwise cause Administrative Agent to violate any applicable
law or regulation.


 


Limitation of Liability. Administrative
Agent, Issuing Banks, Swingline Lenders and Lenders shall not be liable to Borrower or any other parties for: (i) errors, acts
or failures to act of others, including other entities, banks, communications carriers or clearinghouses, through which Borrower’s
requested Disbursements may be made or information received or transmitted, and no such entity shall be deemed an agent of Administrative
Agent, Issuing Banks, Swingline Lenders and Lenders (other than as a result of the Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Banks’,
Swingline Lenders’ and Lenders’ own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final, non appealable judgment); (ii) any loss, liability or delay caused by fires, earthquakes, wars, civil disturbances,
power surges or failures, acts of government, labor disputes, failures in communications networks, legal constraints or other events
beyond Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Banks’, Swingline Lenders’ and Lenders’ control; or (iii) any special,
consequential, indirect or punitive damages, whether or not (A) any claim for these damages is based on tort or contract or (B)
Administrative Agent or Borrower knew or should have known the likelihood of these damages in any situation. None of the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Swingline Lender or any Lender makes any representations or warranties other than those expressly
made in this Agreement. IN NO EVENT WILL ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ISSUING BANKS, SWINGLINE LENDERS AND LENDERS BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES
ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY IF A DISBURSEMENT REQUEST IS EXECUTED BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IN GOOD FAITH AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.


 


Reliance on Information Provided. Administrative
Agent is authorized to rely on the information provided by Borrower or any Authorized Representative in or in accordance with this
Agreement when executing a Disbursement Request until Administrative Agent has received a new Agreement signed by Borrower. Borrower
agrees to be bound by any Disbursement Request: (i) authorized or transmitted by Borrower; or (ii) made in Borrower’s name
and accepted by Administrative Agent in good faith and in compliance with this Agreement, even if not properly authorized by Borrower.
Administrative Agent may rely solely (i) on the account number of the Receiving Party, rather than the Receiving Party’s
name, and (ii) on the bank routing number of the Receiving Bank, rather than the Receiving Bank’s name, in executing a Disbursement
Request. Administrative Agent is not obligated or required in any way to take any actions to detect errors in information provided
by Borrower or an Authorized Representative. If Administrative Agent takes any actions in an attempt to detect errors in the transmission
or content of transfers or requests or takes any actions in an attempt to detect unauthorized Disbursement Requests, Borrower agrees
that, no matter how many times Administrative Agent takes these actions, Administrative Agent will not in any situation be liable
for failing to take or correctly perform these actions in the future, and such actions shall not become any part of the Disbursement
procedures authorized herein, in the Loan Documents, or in any agreement between Administrative Agent and Borrower.


 


International Disbursements. A Disbursement
Request expressed in US Dollars will be sent in US Dollars, even if the Receiving Party or Receiving Bank is located outside the
United States. Administrative Agent will not execute Disbursement Requests expressed in foreign currency unless permitted by the
Loan Agreement.


 


Errors. Borrower agrees to notify Administrative
Agent of any errors in the Disbursement of any funds or of any unauthorized or improperly authorized Disbursement Requests within
fourteen (14) days after Administrative Agent’s confirmation to Borrower of such Disbursement. If Administrative Agent is
notified that it did not disburse the full amount requested in a Disbursement Request, Administrative Agent’s sole liability
will be to promptly disburse the amount of the stated deficiency. If Administrative Agent disburses an amount in excess of the
amount requested in a Disbursement Request, Lender will only be liable for such excess amount to the extent that Borrower does
not receive the benefit of such amount.


 


Finality of Disbursement Requests.
Disbursement Requests will be final and will not be subject to stop payment or recall; provided that Administrative Agent
may, at Borrower’s request, make an effort to effect a stop payment or recall but will incur no liability whatsoever for
its failure or inability to do so.

detail of the transactions and the condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries during the accounting period covered by the financial

warranty is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all
respects) on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent (x) that such representations and warranties expressly
relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all
material respects (unless such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation
and warranty shall have been true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and (y) of changes in factual

however, as applied to this subsection (a) only and for no other purposes, objection from the Lender acting as the

such Benchmark Replacement otherwise satisfy the Requisite Lender requirements. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in
Election will become effective on the date the Requisite Lenders have delivered to Administrative Agent written notice that such
Requisite Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of LIBOR with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Exhibit M
will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

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

or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, shall 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 to the prior written approval of the Borrower and as otherwise expressly required pursuant to the provision
of this Exhibit M.



 


		(d)	Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement
of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, Conversion to or Continuation
of, LIBOR Loans or LIBOR Daily Loans to be made, Converted or Continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing
that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or Conversion to Base Rate

below:



 


“Benchmark Replacement”
- means the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate (which may include Term SOFR) that has been selected by the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement rate or the mechanism for
determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining
a rate of interest as a replacement for LIBOR for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities and (b) the Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment; provided that, if the Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than zero percent (0%), the Benchmark
Replacement shall be deemed to be zero percent (0.00%) for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, for purposes of any Term Loan Facility, if the Borrower has delivered a written notice to the Administrative Agent
certifying (i) that all or any portion of the Term Loans under such Term Loan Facility are subject to a Derivatives Contract providing
for a “swap” within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act and (ii) that such Derivatives Contract
is not subject to a zero interest rate floor, then the Benchmark Replacement shall not be subject to a floor of zero with respect
to such Term Loans.


 


“Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment” - means, with respect to any replacement of LIBOR with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for each applicable
Interest Period, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive

any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the
replacement of LIBOR with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving
or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread
adjustment, for the replacement of LIBOR with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated
credit facilities at such time.


 


“Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes” - means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational
changes (including changes to the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making
payments of interest and other administrative matters) that the Administrative Agent decides may be appropriate to reflect the
adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent
in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion
of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for
the administration of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides
is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement).
