constituted capital leases on the date hereof (assuming for purposes hereof that they were in existence on the date hereof) shall
be considered capital leases, and all calculations and deliverables under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made
in accordance therewith (provided that all financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with

no nearest number).


 


SECTION 1.6                 
References to Agreement and Laws. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (a) any definition or reference to

SECTION 1.9                
Covenant Compliance Generally. For purposes of determining compliance under Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.5
and 7.6, any amount in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars in a manner consistent with that
used in calculating Consolidated Corporate Net Income in the most recent annual financial statements delivered pursuant to Section
6.1(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with Sections 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3,
with respect to any amount of Indebtedness or Investment in a currency other than Dollars, no breach of any basket contained in
such sections shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such
Indebtedness or Investment is incurred; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section
1.9 shall otherwise apply to such Sections, including with respect to determining whether any Indebtedness or Investment may
be incurred at any time under such Sections.


 


SECTION 1.10             
Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware
law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of
any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred
from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed
to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.


 


SECTION 1.11             
Limited Condition Acquisitions. In the event that the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing that
any proposed acquisition is a Limited Condition Acquisition and that the Borrower wishes to test the conditions to such acquisition
and the Indebtedness to be used to finance such acquisition in accordance with this Section, then, so long as agreed to by the
Administrative Agent and the lenders providing such Indebtedness, the following provisions shall apply:


 


(a)               
any condition to such acquisition or such Indebtedness that requires that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing at the time of such acquisition or the incurrence of such Indebtedness, shall be satisfied if (i) no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the execution of the definitive purchase agreement, merger
agreement or other acquisition agreement governing such acquisition and (ii) no Event of Default under any of Sections 9.1(a),
9.1(b), 9.1(i) or 9.1(j) shall have occurred and be continuing both before and after giving effect to such
acquisition and any Indebtedness incurred in connection therewith;


 


(b)               
any condition to such acquisition or such Indebtedness that the representations and warranties in this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents shall be true and correct at the time of such acquisition or the incurrence of such Indebtedness shall be
subject to customary “SunGard” or other customary applicable “certain funds” conditionality provisions
(including, without limitation, a condition that the representations and warranties under the relevant agreements relating to such
Limited Condition Acquisition as are material to the lenders providing such Indebtedness shall be true and correct, but only to
the extent that the Borrower or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such agreement as a
result of a breach of such representations and warranties or the failure of those representations and warranties to be true and
correct), so long as all representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct at
the time of execution of the definitive purchase agreement, merger agreement or other acquisition agreement governing such acquisition;


 


(c)                any
financial ratio test or condition, may upon the written election of the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent prior
to the execution of the definitive agreement for such acquisition, be tested either (i) upon the execution of the
definitive agreement with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition or (ii) upon the consummation of the Limited
Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, in each case, after giving effect to the relevant Limited
Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, on a Pro Forma Basis; provided that the failure to
deliver a notice under this Section 1.11(c) prior to the date of execution of the definitive agreement for such
Limited Condition Acquisition shall be deemed an election to test the applicable financial ratio under sub-clause (ii) of
this Section 1.11(c); and


 



    38


     


    

 


(d)               
except as provided in the next sentence, if the Borrower has made an election with respect to any Limited Condition Acquisition
to test a financial ratio test or condition at the time specified in clause (c)(i) of this Section, then in connection with any
subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket on or following the relevant date of execution of the definitive agreement with respect
to such Limited Condition Acquisition and prior to the earlier of (i) the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated
or (ii) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation
of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be required to be satisfied both (x) on a Pro Forma Basis
assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including the incurrence or assumption
of Indebtedness) have been consummated and (y) assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection
therewith (including the incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness) have not been consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
calculation of a ratio in connection with determining whether or not the Borrower is in compliance with the requirements of Section
7.14 shall, in each case be calculated assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith
(including the incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness) have not been consummated.


 


The foregoing provisions
shall apply with similar effect during the pendency of multiple Limited Condition Acquisitions such that each of the possible scenarios
is separately tested. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall there be more than two Limited Condition
Acquisitions at any time outstanding.

receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (other than a prepayment with the proceeds of Refinancing Term
Loans) so notify the applicable Lenders. Each prepayment of the Term Loans under this Section shall be applied on a pro rata
basis among the Initial Term Loans and, if applicable, Incremental Term Loans, Extended Term Loans and Refinancing Term Loans (as
determined based on the then outstanding principal amount of each such Term Loan), except to the extent that any applicable amendment
or other governing document implementing an Incremental Term Loan, Extended Term Loan and/or Refinancing Term Loan provides that
the applicable Class of Term Loans made thereunder shall be entitled to less than pro rata treatment. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
each prepayment of Term Loans under this Section with proceeds of Refinancing Term Loans shall be applied solely to the Class of
Term Loans being Refinanced thereby. Amounts so applied shall be further applied (A) on a pro rata basis to the remaining
scheduled principal installments of the Initial Term Loans and (B) as determined by the Borrower and the applicable Class of Lenders

outstanding immediately prior to such amendment that are subject to such amendment (including, without limitation, any Initial Term B Loans
of a Non-Consenting Lender that is replaced pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with such amendment). Such fees
shall be due and payable within three (3) Business Days of the date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction. For
the purpose of this clause (c), “Repricing Transaction” means (x) any prepayment or repayment of the Initial Term B
Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of the Initial Term B Loans
into, any new or replacement tranche of term loans or Indebtedness incurred for the primary purpose (as determined pursuant
to a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, upon which the Administrative Agent may rely) of reducing the
“effective yield” (taking into account, for example, upfront fees, interest rate spreads, interest rate
benchmark floors and original issue discount, but excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication or other
fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders of such new or replacement loans) to an
amount less than the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term B Loans
(as such comparative yields are determined in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent consistent with generally
accepted financial practices) and (y) any amendment, amendment and restatement, mandatory assignment or other
transaction that modifies the pricing terms of the Initial Term B Loans
which reduces the “effective yield” applicable to the Initial Term B
Loans, but which in each case does not include any refinancing that involves an upsizing in connection with an acquisition by
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) or other fundamental change or any other
transaction not otherwise permitted by this Agreement.

GENERAL LOAN PROVISIONS


 


SECTION 3.1                 
Interest.


 


(a)               
Interest Rate Options. Subject to the provisions of this Section, at the election of the Borrower, the Initial Term
Loans shall bear interest at (A) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (B) the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable
Margin (provided that the LIBOR Rate shall not be available until three (3) Business Days after the Closing Date unless
the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section
3.9 of this Agreement). The Borrower shall select the rate of interest and Interest Period, if any, applicable to the Initial
Term B Loan at the time a Notice of Borrowing
is given or at the time a Notice of Conversion/Continuation is given pursuant to Section 3.2.


 


(b)               
Default Rate. Subject to Section 9.3, (i) immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default under Section 9.1(a), (b), (i) or (j), or (ii) at the election of the Required Lenders,
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, (A) the Borrower shall no longer have the option
to request LIBOR Rate Loans, (B) all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum of two percent (2%) in
excess of the rate (including the Applicable Margin) then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of the applicable Interest
Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate (including the Applicable Margin) then applicable
to Base Rate Loans, (C) all outstanding Base Rate Loans and other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate (including the Applicable Margin) then
applicable to Base Rate Loans or such other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (D) all accrued
and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on demand of the Administrative Agent. Interest shall continue to accrue on the Obligations
after the filing by or against the Borrower of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any Debtor Relief Law.


 


(c)               
Interest Payment and Computation. Interest on each Base Rate Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on the last
Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing December 31, 2018; and interest on each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be due and payable
on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and if such Interest Period extends over three (3) months, at the end
of each three (3) month interval during such Interest Period; provided
that accrued and unpaid interest up to but excluding the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date for the Initial Term Loans (including the
Converted Initial Loans) shall be due and payable on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date. All computations of interest
for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the Prime Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days,
as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest provided hereunder shall be made on the
basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed
on the basis of a 365/366-day year).


 


(d)                Maximum
Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all amounts deemed interest under this Agreement
charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law
which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable hereto. In the event that such
a court determines that the Lenders have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the
rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law and the Lenders shall
at the Administrative Agent’s option (i) promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by the Lenders in excess
of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) apply such excess to the principal balance of the Obligations. It is the intent hereof
that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to
receive, directly or indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under
Applicable Law.


 






    43


     


    

 


SECTION 3.2                
Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is then continuing, the Borrower shall have the option to (a) convert at any time following the third Business Day after the
Closing Date all or any portion of any outstanding Base Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $5,000,000 or any whole multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans and (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period, (i) convert
all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof into Base Rate Loans or (ii) continue such LIBOR Rate Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrower desires
to convert or continue Initial Term Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior
written notice in the form attached as Exhibit D (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) not later than
11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Initial Term Loan is to
be effective specifying (A) the Initial Term Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be
converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or continuation
(which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Initial Term Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) the
Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued LIBOR Rate Loan. If the Borrower fails to give a timely Notice
of Conversion/Continuation prior to the end of the Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan, then the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan
shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan. Any such automatic conversion to a Base Rate Loan shall be effective as of the last day
of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable LIBOR Rate Loan. If the Borrower requests a conversion to,
or continuation of, LIBOR Rate Loans, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest
Period of one month. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation.


 


SECTION 3.3               
Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees
in the amounts and at the times specified in the Engagement Letter and the Administrative Agent’s Fee Letter. The Borrower
shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified.


 


SECTION 3.4                 Manner
of Payment. Each payment by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Term Loans or of any fee,
commission or other amounts payable to the Lenders under this Agreement shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date
specified for payment under this Agreement to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the
account of the applicable Lenders entitled to such payment in Dollars, in immediately available funds and shall be made
without any set off, counterclaim or deduction whatsoever. Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. on such
day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 9.1, but for all other purposes shall be deemed
to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been made
on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the
Administrative Agent shall distribute to each such Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its ratable share (or
other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment and shall wire advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender.
Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of
the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under Sections 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 or 11.3
shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to the definition of Interest
Period, if any payment under this Agreement shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be
made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in
computing any interest if payable along with such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there exists a Defaulting Lender
each payment by the Borrower to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be applied in accordance with Section
3.14(a)(ii).


 






    44


     


    

 


SECTION 3.5                 
Evidence of Indebtedness. The Term Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records
maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained
by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Term Loans made by the
Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however,
limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In
the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative
Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest
error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender
(through the Administrative Agent) a Term Loan Note which shall evidence such Lender’s Term Loans in addition to such accounts
or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Term Loan Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Term
Loan and payments with respect thereto.


 


SECTION 3.6                 
Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in
such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans and accrued interest thereon or
other such obligations (other than pursuant to Sections 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 or 11.3) greater than its pro
rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative
Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans and such other obligations of the
other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by
the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Term Loans
and other amounts owing them; provided that:


 


(i)                
if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations
shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and


 


(ii)              
the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and
in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting
Lender), or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its
Term Loans to any assignee or participant, other than, except to the extent provided in Section 11.9(g), to the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).


 


Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing
and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to
the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Credit Party in the amount of such participation.


 



    45


     


    

 


SECTION 3.7                 
Administrative Agent’s Clawback.


 


(a)               
Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
from a Lender (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, not later than 12:00 noon on the date of any proposed borrowing and (ii) otherwise,
prior to the proposed date of any borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s
share of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance
with this Agreement and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event,
if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment
to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the daily average Federal
Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation
and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and
such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an 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 Lender pays its
share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Term
Loan included in such borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against
a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.


 


(b)               
Payments by the Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. 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
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, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such
event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, 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.


 


(c)               
Nature of Obligations of Lenders. The obligations of the Lenders under this Agreement to make Term Loans are several
and are not joint or joint and several. The failure of any Lender to make available its ratable portion of any Term Loan requested
by the Borrower shall not relieve it or any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its ratable portion of such
Term Loan available on the borrowing date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its ratable
portion of such Term Loan available on the borrowing date.


 


SECTION 3.8                
Changed Circumstances.


 


(a)                Circumstances
Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. Unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (c)
below, in connection with any request for a LIBOR Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, if for any reason (i)
the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that
Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and
Interest Period of such Term Loan, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and
binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for the ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such
Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or (iii) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination
shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error), and shall have notified the Administrative Agent accordingly, that
the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Term Loans
during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. Thereafter,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation of the Lenders
to make LIBOR Rate Loans and the right of the Borrower to convert any Term Loan to or continue any Term Loan as a LIBOR Rate
Loan shall be suspended, and the Borrower shall either (A) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding
principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan together with accrued interest thereon (subject to Section 3.1(d)), on
the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan; or (B) convert the then outstanding
principal amount of each such LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as of the last day of such Interest Period.


 



    46


     


    

 


(b)               
Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable
Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending
Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank
or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices)
to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other Lenders. Thereafter,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders
to make LIBOR Rate Loans, and the right of the Borrower to convert any Term Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan or continue any Term Loan
as a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower may select only Base Rate Loans and (ii) if any of the Lenders
may not lawfully continue to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, the
applicable Term Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan for the remainder of such Interest Period.


 


(c)                Alternative
Rate of Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.8(a) above, if the Administrative Agent
has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances
described in Section 3.8(a)(i) or (a)(ii) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary,
(ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans
in the U.S. syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of
any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over
the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate
specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the U.S. syndicated loan market in the
applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with the Borrower and as
determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which
it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement
interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two
sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event
described in Section 3.8(a)(i), (a)(ii), (c)(i), (c)(ii) or (c)(iii) occurs with respect
to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Required Lenders (either directly or through the Administrative Agent) notify the Borrower
that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining the Term
Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section
3.8(c). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, Section 11.2), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any
other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of
the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required
Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such notice shall note with
specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects). To the extent the Replacement Rate is
approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (c), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner
consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not
administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably
determined by the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by the Administrative Agent shall not
require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).


 






    47


     


    

 


SECTION 3.9               
Indemnity. The Borrower hereby indemnifies each of the Lenders against any loss or expense (including any loss or
expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan or from fees payable
to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained) which may arise or be attributable to each Lender’s obtaining,
liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Term Loan (a) as a consequence of any
failure by the Borrower to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) due
to any failure of the Borrower to borrow or continue a LIBOR Rate Loan or convert to a LIBOR Rate Loan on a date specified therefor
in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR
Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor. The amount of such loss or expense shall be determined,
in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its ratable portion of the
LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank market and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems
appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed
to be correct save for manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding
the foregoing, no Lender shall demand, and the Borrower shall not be obliged to make, any funding loss payments pursuant to this
Section 3.9 with respect to the payment of accrued interest on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date with respect to the Converted
Initial Loans.


 


SECTION 3.10              
Increased Costs.


 


(a)               
Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)                
impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, any
Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate);


 


(ii)              
subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of
the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments,
or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or


 


(iii)             impose
on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement
or LIBOR Rate Loans made by such Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender
or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Term Loan (or of maintaining its
obligation to make any such Term Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other
Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender or other
Recipient, the Borrower shall promptly pay to any such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount
or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered.


 






    48


     


    

 


(b)               
Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office
of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity 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 or the Term Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such
Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies
and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written
request of such Lender the Borrower shall promptly 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.


 


(c)               
Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or other Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender, such other Recipient or any of their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as
specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
ten (10) days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)               
Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant
to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation;
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or any other Recipient pursuant to this Section
for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or such other
Recipient, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and
of such Lender’s or such other Recipient’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that if the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended
to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).


 


SECTION 3.11              
Taxes.


 


(a)               
Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.11, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.


 


(b)                Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall
be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as
determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or 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 applicable Credit 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.


 






    49


     


    

 


(c)               
Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. The Credit 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 Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Recipient,
within ten (10) 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 Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.


 


(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 any Credit Party
has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit
Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.9(d)
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 paragraph (e).


 


(f)                
Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority
pursuant to this Section 3.11, such Credit 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 Section 3.11(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B)
and (ii)(D) below) 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.


 



    50


     


    

 


(ii)              
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:


 


(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), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal
backup withholding tax;


 


(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:


 


(1)       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, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E, as applicable establishing an exemption
from, or reduction of, United States 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 W-BEN-E, as applicable establishing
an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty;


 


(2)       executed
copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


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


 


(4)       to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit
G-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 G-4
on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;


 



    51


     


    

 



 


(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), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in
United States 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


 


(D)             
if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States 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 Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
at the time or times prescribed by 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 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 3.11 (including by the payment
of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.11), 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 paragraph (h) (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 paragraph (h), in no event will the
indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) 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 paragraph 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 3.11 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 Term Loan
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 3.12              
Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.


 


(a)               
Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.10, or requires
the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of
any Lender pursuant to Section 3.11, then such Lender shall, at the request of the Borrower, use reasonable efforts to designate
a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Term Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to
another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate
or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.10 or Section 3.11, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would
not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower
hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.


 


(b)               
Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.10, or if the Borrower is required
to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant
to Section 3.11, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance
with Section 3.12(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its
sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.9), all
of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.10 or Section 3.11) and
obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which
assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:


 


(i)                
the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 11.9;


 


(ii)              
such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term Loans, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under
Section 3.9) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower
(in the case of all other amounts, including any amounts under Section 2.4(c));


 


(iii)            
in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.10 or payments required
to be made pursuant to Section 3.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;


 


(iv)             
such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and


 


(v)               
in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have
consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.


 


A Lender shall not
be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.


 






    53


     


    

 


SECTION 3.13              
Incremental Loans.


 


(a)               
At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request the
establishment of one or more incremental term loan commitments (any such incremental term loan commitment, an “Incremental
Term Loan Commitment”) to make up to three (3) additional term loans, including a borrowing of an additional term loan
the principal amount of which will be added to the outstanding principal amount of the existing Class of Term Loans with the latest
maturity date (any such additional term loan, an “Incremental Term Loan”); provided that (i) the total
aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall not exceed the Incremental Term Loan Limit and (ii) the
total aggregate amount for each Incremental Term Loan Commitment (and the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder) shall not, unless
otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, be less than a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 or, if less, the remaining
amount permitted pursuant to the foregoing clause (i). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount
Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that any Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall be effective, which shall be a
date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent (or such later
date as may be approved by the Administrative Agent). The Borrower may invite any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender and/or any
Approved Fund, and/or any other Person reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to provide an Incremental Term Loan
Commitment or any portion thereof (any such Person, an “Incremental Lender”). Any proposed Incremental Lender
offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Term Loan Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion,
to provide such Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Any Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall become effective as of such Increased
Amount Date; provided that, subject to Section 1.11, each of the following conditions has been satisfied or waived
as of such Increased Amount Date:


 


(A)             
no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date immediately before or immediately after giving
effect to (x) any Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the making of any Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto, (y) any permanent
repayment of Indebtedness consummated in connection therewith and (z) any Permitted Acquisition consummated in connection therewith;


 


(B)             
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the Borrower an Officer’s Compliance Certificate
demonstrating, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that the Borrower is in compliance with
the Financial Covenant based on the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b),
as applicable, both before and after giving effect (on a Pro Forma Basis) to (x) any Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the making
of any Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto (with any Incremental Term Loan Commitment being deemed to be fully funded), (y)
any permanent repayment of Indebtedness consummated in connection therewith and (z) any Permitted Acquisition consummated in connection
therewith;


 


(C)             
each of the representations and warranties contained in Articles V and VIII shall be true and correct in all
material respects, except to the extent any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality or reference to Material
Adverse Effect, in which case, such representation and warranty shall be true, correct and complete in all respects, on such Increased
Amount Date with the same effect as if made on and as of such date (except for any such representation and warranty that by its
terms is made only as of an earlier date, which representation and warranty shall remain true and correct as of such earlier date);


 






    54


     


    

 


(D)             
the proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans shall be used for general corporate purposes of the Credit Parties (including
Permitted Acquisitions);


 


(E)              
each Incremental Term Loan Commitment (and the Incremental Term Loans made thereunder) shall constitute Obligations of the
Borrower and shall be secured and guaranteed with the other Term Loans on a pari passu basis;


 


(F)             
in the case of each Incremental Term Loan (the terms of which shall be set forth in the relevant Lender Joinder Agreement):


 


(1)       such
Incremental Term Loan will mature and amortize in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Incremental Lenders making such Incremental
Term Loan and the Borrower, but will not in any event have a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the remaining weighted
average life to maturity of the Initial Term Loan or a maturity date earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date;


 


(2)       the
Applicable Margin and pricing grid, if applicable, for such Incremental Term Loan shall be determined by the applicable Incremental
Lenders and the Borrower on the applicable Increased Amount Date; provided that if the Applicable Margin in respect of any
Incremental Term Loan exceeds the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term B
Loan by more than 0.50%, then the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term B
Loan shall be increased so that the Applicable Margin in respect of such Initial Term
B Loan is equal to the Applicable Margin for the Incremental
Term Loan minus 0.50%; provided further in determining the Applicable Margin(s) applicable to each Incremental
Term Loan and the Applicable Margin(s) for the Initial Term B
Loan, (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts
of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under such Incremental Term Loan or the Initial
Term B Loan in the initial primary syndication
thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity) and (B) customary arrangement
or commitment fees payable to any Arranger (or its affiliates) in connection with the Initial
Term B Loan or to one or more arrangers (or
their affiliates) of any Incremental Term Loan shall be excluded (it being understood that the effects of any and all interest
rate floors shall be included in determining Applicable Margin(s) under this provision); and


 


(3)       except
as provided above, all other terms and conditions applicable to any Incremental Term Loan, to the extent not consistent with the
terms and conditions applicable to the Initial Term B
Loan, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (provided that such other terms and
conditions shall not be materially more favorable to the Lenders under any Incremental Term Loans than such other terms and conditions
under the Initial Term B
Loans);


 


(G)            
any Incremental Lender making any Incremental Term Loan shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the existing Lenders
under the Term Loan Facility;


 


(H)              such
Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Lender Joinder Agreements executed and delivered
by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Incremental Lenders (which Lender Joinder Agreement may, without
the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be
necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 3.13);
and


 






    55


     


    

 


(I)                
the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other documents (including, without
limitation, a resolution duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of each Credit Party authorizing
such Incremental Term Loan and/or Incremental Term Loan Commitment) and such written consent or acknowledgement, if any, from each
Agency with respect to such Incremental Term Loan as may be necessary or reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection
with any such transaction (which such consents or acknowledgments shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and the Incremental Lenders).


 


(b)           (i)              The Incremental Term Loans shall be deemed to be Term Loans; provided that any such Incremental Term Loan
that is not added to the outstanding principal balance of a pre-existing Term Loan shall be designated as a separate Class of Term
Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.


 


(ii)             The Incremental Lenders shall be included in any determination of the Required Lenders and, unless otherwise agreed, the
Incremental Lenders will not constitute a separate voting class for any purposes under this Agreement.


 


(c)          
On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Term Loan Commitment becomes effective, subject to the foregoing terms
and conditions, each Incremental Lender with an Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall make, or be obligated to make, an Incremental
Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment and shall become a Lender hereunder with respect
to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Term Loan made pursuant thereto.


 


SECTION 3.14              
Defaulting Lenders.


 


(a)               
Defaulting Lender Adjustments. 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:


 


(i)                
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 Required Lenders and Section 11.2.


 


(ii)               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 IX or otherwise)
or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.4 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, as the Borrower may request (so long as
no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Term 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; third, if so
determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in
order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Term Loans under this
Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, 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 sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided
that if (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Term Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender
has not fully funded its appropriate share and (2) such Term Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section
4.1 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Term Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on
a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Term Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as
all Term Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the applicable ratable shares of such Term Loans.
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 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably
consents hereto.


 






    56


     


    

 


(b)               
Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a 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, such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion
of outstanding Term Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary
to cause the Term Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Term Loan Commitments, whereupon such
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 Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further,
that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender
will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender.


 


SECTION 3.15              
Extension of Term Loan Maturity Date.


 


(a)               
The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Request”), which shall
promptly notify the applicable Class of Lenders, request one or more extensions of the maturity date applicable to the Term Loans
of such Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche” and the extended loans of such Class, the “Extended
Term Loans”) then in effect (such existing maturity date applicable to such Class of Term Loans being the “Existing
Term Loan Maturity Date”) to a date specified in such Extension Request.


 


(b)                Each
Extension Request shall specify (i) the date on which the Borrower proposes that the extension shall be effective, which
shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than thirty (30) days after the date of such Extension
Request (or such longer or shorter periods as the Administrative Agent shall agree in its sole discretion), (ii) the Existing
Term Loan Tranche to be extended, (iii) the amount of the Existing Term Loan Tranche that is subject to such Extension
Request and (iv) the proposed maturity date of such Extended Term Loan. Within the time period specified in such Extension
Request, each applicable Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it consents to such extension (which consent
may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion). Each Lender of the Existing Term Loan Tranche
shall be offered the opportunity to participate in such extension on a pro rata basis and on the same terms and conditions as
each other Lender of the Existing Term Loan Tranche pursuant to procedures established by, or reasonably acceptable to, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Any Lender not responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have
consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the applicable Lenders of such
Lenders’ responses. If the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Term Loan Tranche in respect of which the
applicable Lenders shall have accepted the Extension Request exceeds the amount set forth in such Extension Request, then the
Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Tranche shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective
principal amounts with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Request.


 






    57


     


    

 


(c)               
The maturity date applicable to any Class of Term Loans shall be extended only with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche
held by such Lenders that have consented thereto (it being understood and agreed that no other Lender consents shall be required
hereunder for such extensions). If so extended, the scheduled maturity date with respect to the Term Loans of the relevant Class
so extended shall be the date specified in the Extension Request, which shall become the new maturity date of the applicable Class
of Term Loans established pursuant to such extension (such maturity date for the Term Loans so affected, the “Extended
Term Loan Maturity Date”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to the applicable Lenders such extension,
specifying the effective date of such extension (the “Extension Effective Date”) and the Extended Term Loan
Maturity Date (after giving effect to such extension) applicable to the Extended Term Loans.


 


(d)               
The proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established shall be identical to the Term Loans under the Existing
Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be amended, except that:


 


(i)                
the maturity date of the Extended Term Loans shall be later than the maturity date of the applicable Existing Term Loan
Tranche;


 


(ii)              
the weighted average life to maturity of the Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average
life to maturity of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche;


 


(iii)            
the “effective yield” with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin,
upfront fees, original issue discount, interest rate floors or otherwise) may be different than the “effective yield”
for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment;


 


(iv)             
the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the final maturity
date of the Term Loans that are in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment
of such Extended Term Loans); and


 


(v)               
Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; and


 


(vi)             
the Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata or less than pro rata (but not greater than pro rata) basis in (A)
mandatory prepayments with the other Term Loans and (B) to the extent that any Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche
remain outstanding, any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans outstanding under the Existing Term Loan Tranche (it being understood
and agreed that the Extended Term Loans may not be voluntarily prepaid without a corresponding voluntary repayment of the Term
Loans outstanding under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were extended).


 






    58


     


    

 


(e)               
As a condition precedent to such extension, (i) the representations and warranties contained in Article V made by
the Borrower that are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect shall be true and correct, and the representations that
are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects, in each case on and as of the Extension Effective Date,
except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case such representation
and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and no Default or Event of Default exists
or will exist as of the Extension Effective Date, (ii) the terms of such Extended Term Loans shall comply with clause (d) of this
Section and (iii) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower signed by a Responsible
Officer and dated as of the Extension Effective Date certifying as to the conditions described in sub-clause (i) of this clause
(e).


 


(f)                
Notwithstanding the terms of Section 11.2, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (without the
consent of any other Lenders except to the extent required above under this Section) to enter into any amendments (an “Extension
Amendment”) to this Agreement that the Administrative Agent believes are necessary to appropriately reflect, or provide
for the integration of, any extension of the maturity date and other amendments applicable to any Class of Term Loans pursuant
to this Section 3.15.


 


(g)               
Notwithstanding the terms of Sections 3.13, 3.15 and 3.16, in no event shall there be more than four
(4) (or such other amount as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) Classes of Term Loans (including the Initial Term Loans,
any Incremental Term Loans, any Extended Term Loans and any Refinancing Term Loans) under this Agreement.


 


SECTION 3.16              
Refinancing Term Loans.


 


(a)              
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative
Agent request the establishment of one or more additional tranches or Classes of term loans under this Agreement (“Refinancing
Term Loans”) which refinance, renew, replace, defease or refund (collectively, “Refinance”) one or
more Classes of Term Loans under this Agreement; provided that:


 


(i)                
no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;


 


(ii)              
the principal amount of such Refinancing Term Loans may not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans being
Refinanced plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon, any prepayment premiums applicable thereto and reasonable
fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith;


 


(iii)            
the Net Cash Proceeds of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be applied, concurrently or substantially concurrently with the
incurrence thereof, solely to the repayment of the outstanding amount of one or more Classes of Term Loans being Refinanced thereby;


 


(iv)             
each Class of Refinancing Term Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in
excess thereof (or such other amount necessary to repay any Class of outstanding Term Loans in full);


 


(v)               
the final maturity date of such Refinancing Term Loans shall not be earlier than the maturity date of the Term Loans being
Refinanced, and the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then remaining
weighted average life to maturity of each Class of Term Loans being Refinanced;


 






    59


     


    

 


(vi)             
subject to clause (v) above, such Refinancing Term Loans shall have pricing (including interest rates, fees and premiums),
amortization, optional prepayment, mandatory prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the relevant
Refinancing Term Lenders, so long as, in the case of any mandatory prepayment or redemption provisions, such Refinancing Term Loans
do not participate on a greater basis in any such prepayments as compared to the Term Loans being Refinanced;


 


(vii)           
all other terms applicable to such Refinancing Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) be
otherwise not more favorable to (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) the lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans than
those applicable to the then outstanding Term Loans, except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period
after the latest final maturity date of the Term Loans existing at the time of such refinancing or replacement;


 


(viii)         
such Refinancing Term Loans shall not be secured by (i) Liens on assets other than assets securing the Indebtedness being
Refinanced or (ii) Liens having a higher priority than the Liens, if any, securing the Indebtedness being Refinanced;


 


(ix)             
no Subsidiary is a borrower or a guarantor with respect to such Refinancing Term Loans unless such Subsidiary is a Credit
Party which shall have previously or substantially concurrently guaranteed the Secured Obligations; and


 


(x)               
no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Refinancing Term Loans.


 


(b)               
Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”) on which the Borrower
proposes that the Refinancing Term Loans be made, which shall be a date reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.


 


(c)               
The Borrower may approach any Lender or any other Person that would be an Eligible Assignee of Term Loans pursuant to Section
11.9 to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans (each a “Refinancing Term Lender”); provided
that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans may elect or decline, in its sole
discretion, to provide a Refinancing Term Loan. Any Refinancing Term Loans made on any Refinancing Effective Date shall be designated
a series (a “Refinancing Term Loan Series”) of Refinancing Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided
that any Refinancing Term Loans may, to the extent provided in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, be designated as an increase
in any previously established Refinancing Term Loan Series of Refinancing Term Loans made to the Borrower.


 


(d)                The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 3.16
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of interest, fees, amortization or premium in respect of the Refinancing
Term Loans on the terms specified by the Borrower) and hereby waive the requirements of this Agreement (including Section
3.6 and Section 11.2) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit such Refinancing or any other
transaction contemplated by this Section 3.16. The Refinancing Term Loans shall be established pursuant to Refinancing
Amendment and such Refinancing Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties party
thereto and the other parties hereto without the consent of any other Lender and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the
Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or
appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section
3.16, including in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of the Refinancing Term Loans and such
technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith and to adjust the amortization set forth in Section
2.3 (insofar as such schedule relates to payments due to Lenders the Term Loans of which are Refinanced; provided
that no such amendment shall reduce the pro rata share of any such payment that would have otherwise been payable to the
Lenders holding Term Loans which are not being Refinanced). The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject
to the satisfaction on the date thereof of conditions substantially consistent with the conditions in Section 4.1 and,
to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) customary legal
opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date (conformed

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE CREDIT PARTIES


 


To induce the Administrative
Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make the Term Loans, the Credit Parties hereby represent
and warrant to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereunder
that:


 


SECTION 5.1                 
Organization; Power; Qualification. Each Credit Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing and, where applicable,
in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, (b) has the power and authority to own its
Properties and to carry on its business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and (c) is duly qualified and authorized

as of the Closing Date are described on Schedule 5.1. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is an EEA Financial Institution.


 






    66


     


    

 


SECTION 5.2                  Ownership;
Voting Agreements. Each Subsidiary of each Credit Party as of the Closing Date is listed on Schedule 5.2. As of
the Closing Date, the capitalization of each Credit Party and its Subsidiaries consists of the number of shares, authorized,
issued and outstanding, of such classes and series, with or without par value, described on Schedule 5.2.
All outstanding shares have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and not subject to
any preemptive or similar rights, except as described in Schedule 5.2. As of the Closing Date, there are no
outstanding stock purchase warrants, subscriptions, options, securities, instruments or other rights of any type or nature
whatsoever, which are convertible into, exchangeable for or otherwise provide for or require the issuance of Equity Interests
of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof, except as described on Schedule 5.2. Each Excluded Subsidiary and the
Consolidated EBITDA of such Excluded Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries (for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended
immediately prior to the Closing Date for which financial statements are available and determined for this purpose as if all
references in the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” and any definitions used therein to “Borrower and its
Subsidiaries” refer to such Excluded Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries) is set forth on Annex A to the certificate
delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.1(f)(ii). There are no agreements or other arrangements
between the shareholders of the Borrower that would provide any shareholder or group of shareholders owning fifty percent

Borrower.


 


SECTION 5.3                 
Authorization; Enforceability. Each Credit Party has the right, power and authority and has taken all necessary corporate
and other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to
which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents have been duly
executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of each Credit Party that is a party thereto, and each such document constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party that is a party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal
Debtor Relief Laws from time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the availability
of equitable remedies.


 


SECTION 5.4                 
Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by
each Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a party, in accordance with their respective terms, the Term
Loans hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of
notice or otherwise, (a) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law relating to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary
thereof where the failure to obtain such Governmental Approval or such violation could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, (b) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or
other organizational documents of any Credit Party, (c) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any
indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or any
Governmental Approval relating to such Person, which could, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect, (d) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now
owned or hereafter acquired by such Person other than Permitted Liens or (e) require any consent or authorization of, filing with,
or other act in respect of, an arbitrator or Governmental Authority and no consent of any other Person is required in connection
with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document other than (i)

(and copies of which have been provided to the Administrative Agent prior to the date hereof), (ii) consents or filings under the
UCC, and (iii) filings with the United States Copyright Office and/or the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, all consents and approvals required from any Agency (including, without limitation, FHA and HUD)
under any of the Agency Agreements and from any Investor under any of the Investor Agreements that are Material Contracts have
been obtained by the Credit Parties and provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.1(d) and are in full
force and effect.


 






    67


     


    

 


SECTION 5.5                  Compliance
with Law; Governmental Approvals. Each Credit Party (a) has all Governmental Approvals required by any Applicable Law for
it to conduct its business, each of which is in full force and effect, is final and not subject to review on appeal and is
not the subject of any pending or, to its knowledge, threatened attack by direct or collateral proceeding, (b) is in
compliance with each Governmental Approval applicable to it and in compliance with all other Applicable Laws relating to
it or any of its respective properties and (c) has timely filed all material reports, documents and other materials required
to be filed by it under all Applicable Laws with any Governmental Authority and has retained all material records and
documents required to be retained by it under Applicable Law except in each case (a), (b) or (c) where the failure to have,
comply or file could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 5.6                 
Tax Returns and Payments. Each Credit Party has duly filed or caused to be filed all federal, state and other material
tax returns required by Applicable Law to be filed, and has paid, or made adequate provision for the payment of, all federal, state
and other material taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it and its property, income, profits and assets which
are due and payable (other than any amount the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings
and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided for on the books of the relevant Credit Party). Such
returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of any Credit Party for the periods covered thereby.
As of the Closing Date, except as set forth on Schedule 5.6, there is no ongoing audit or examination or, to its knowledge,
other investigation by any Governmental Authority of the tax liability of any Credit Party. No Governmental Authority has asserted
any Lien or other claim against any Credit Party with respect to unpaid taxes which has not been discharged or resolved (other
than (a) any amount the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect
to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided for on the books of the relevant Credit Party and (b) Permitted Liens).
The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of each Credit Party in respect of federal, state and other material taxes for
all Fiscal Years and portions thereof since the organization of any Credit Party are in the judgment of the Borrower adequate,
and the Borrower does not anticipate any additional taxes or assessments for any of such years. No Credit Party or any Subsidiary

mark rights, trade names, trade name rights, copyrights and other rights with respect to the foregoing which are reasonably necessary
to conduct its business. No event has occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit, the revocation
or termination of any such rights, and no Credit Party is liable to any Person for infringement under Applicable Law with respect
to any such rights as a result of its business operations.

or materially impair the fair saleable value thereof;

within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code; and


 


(h)               
As of the Closing Date the Borrower is not nor will be using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR §
2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Term Loans.


 


SECTION 5.10              
Margin Stock. No Credit Party is engaged principally or as one of its activities in the business of extending credit
for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” (as each such term is defined
or used, directly or indirectly, in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). No part of the proceeds
of any of the Term Loans will be used for purchasing or carrying margin stock or for any purpose which violates, or which would
be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of such Board of Governors. Following the application of the proceeds
of each Term Loan, not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of the assets (either of the Borrower only or of the Credit
Parties on a Consolidated basis) subject to the provisions of Section 7.2 or Section 7.5 or subject to any restriction

in excess of the Threshold Amount will be “margin stock”.


 


SECTION 5.11

Party is, or after giving effect to any Term Loan will be, subject to regulation under the Interstate Commerce Act, or any other
Applicable Law which limits its ability to incur or consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.


 


SECTION 5.12               Material
Contracts. Schedule 5.12 sets forth a complete and accurate list of all Material Contracts of each Credit Party in
effect as of the Closing Date. Other than as set forth in Schedule 5.12, as of the Closing Date, each such Material
Contract is, and after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will be, in
full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof. To the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, each
Credit Party has delivered to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of each Material Contract required to be
listed on Schedule 5.12 or any other Schedule hereto. As of the Closing Date, no Credit Party (nor, to its knowledge,
any other party thereto) is in breach of or in default under any Material Contract in any material respect or has received

Subsidiary) or to transfer any of its assets or properties to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than
an Excluded Subsidiary) in each case other than existing under or by reason of the Loan Documents, Applicable Law or customary
restrictions in any documentation governing a Permitted Subsidiary Credit Line or Material Contract restricting any sale, assignment,
lease, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or any substantial part of a Credit Party’s business which would
not prevent the granting of the Liens on the Collateral as contemplated by the Loan Documents.


 


SECTION 5.15              
Financial Statements. The projections delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(f)(i) were prepared in good faith
on the basis of the assumptions stated therein (after giving effect to the Transactions), which assumptions are believed to be
reasonable in light of then existing conditions except that such financial projections (it being recognized by the Lenders that
projections are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections
may vary from such projections).


 


SECTION 5.16              
No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2017, no event has occurred or condition arisen, either individually
or in the aggregate, that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 5.17

property and assets, except those which have been disposed of by the Credit Parties subsequent to such date which dispositions
have been in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder.


 


SECTION 5.19              
Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending nor, to their knowledge, threatened against or in
any other way relating adversely to or affecting any Credit Party or any of their respective properties in any court or before
any arbitrator of any kind or before or by any Governmental Authority that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.


 






    71


     


    

 


SECTION 5.20               Anti-Terrorism;
Anti-Money Laundering; Anti-Corruption and Sanctions. No Credit Party nor any of its Subsidiaries or, to their knowledge,

that enforces Sanctions or any Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws. No part of the proceeds of any Term Loans
hereunder will be unlawfully used directly or indirectly to fund any operations in, finance any investments or activities in
or make any payments to, a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Country, or in any other manner that will result in any
violation by any Person (including any Lender, any Arranger or the Administrative Agent) of any Anti-Terrorism Laws, any
Anti-Corruption Laws, any Anti-Money Laundering Laws or any applicable Sanctions.


 


SECTION 5.21              
Absence of Defaults. No event has occurred or is continuing (a) which constitutes a Default or an Event of Default,
or (b) which constitutes, or which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute, a default or event of
default by any Credit Party under (i) any Material Contract or (ii) any judgment, decree or order to which any Credit Party is
a party or by which any Credit Party or any of its properties may be bound or which would require any Credit Party to make any
payment thereunder prior to the scheduled maturity date therefor that, in any case under this clause (ii), could, either individually
or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.


 


SECTION 5.22              
Disclosure. Each Credit Party has disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all agreements, instruments
and corporate or other restrictions to which any Credit Party is subject, and all other matters known to them, that, individually
or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No financial statement, material report,
material certificate or other material information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf of any Credit Party
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Agreement
or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken together as a whole, contains any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light
of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information,
pro forma financial information, estimated financial information and other projected or estimated information, such information
was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time (it being recognized by the Lenders that
projections are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections
may vary from such projections). As of the Closing Date, all of the information included in any Beneficial Ownership Certification
is true and correct.

the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.2 for the benefit of all the Lenders; 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 Lender from exercising
setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.4 (subject to the terms of Section 3.6), or (iii) 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 Credit
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 (A) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.2 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the
preceding proviso and subject to Section 3.6, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights
and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

SECTION 9.4                 
Crediting of Payments and Proceeds. In the event that the Obligations have been accelerated pursuant to Section
9.2 or the Administrative Agent or any Lender has exercised any remedy set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
all payments received on account of the Secured Obligations and all net proceeds from the enforcement of the Secured Obligations
shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:


 


First, to payment
of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorneys’
fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;


 


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


 


Third, to payment
of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans, ratably among the Lenders
in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;


 


Fourth, to payment
of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Term Loans and payment obligations then owing under
Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements, ratably among the Lenders, the Hedge Banks and the Cash Management
Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth payable to them; and


 


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


 


Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Secured Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements 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 Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may
be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank 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 X for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.


 


SECTION 9.5                 
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief
Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal
of any Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the
Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention
in such proceeding or otherwise:


 


(a)               
to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loans
and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts
due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 3.3 and 11.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and


 






    101 


     


    

 





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


 


and any custodian, receiver, assignee,
trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender
to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of
such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative
Agent under Sections 3.3 and 11.3.


 


SECTION 9.6                 
Credit Bidding.


 


(a)               
The Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, shall have the right (but not the obligation) to
credit bid and purchase for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties all or any portion of Collateral at
any sale thereof conducted by the Administrative Agent or its designee under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Sections
9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC, at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code, including Section
363 thereof, or a sale under a plan of reorganization, or at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by the Administrative Agent
or its designee (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with Applicable Law. Such credit bid or purchase may be
completed through one or more acquisition vehicles formed by the Administrative Agent to make such credit bid or purchase and,
in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is authorized, on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties, to adopt documents
providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles, and assign the applicable Secured Obligations to any such
acquisition vehicle in exchange for Equity Interests and/or debt issued by the applicable acquisition vehicle (which shall be deemed
to be held for the ratable account of the applicable Secured Parties on the basis of the Secured Obligations so assigned by each
Secured Party); provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles,
including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of
the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions
by the Required Lenders contained in Section 11.2.


 


(b)               
Each Lender hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates that is a Secured Party, that, except as otherwise
provided in any Loan Document or with the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, it will not take
any enforcement action, accelerate obligations under any of the Loan Documents, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have
under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral.


 


SECTION 9.7                 
Fannie Mae Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Security Document to the contrary:
(i) the provisions of Section 8.01 of the Collateral Agreement are specifically incorporated herein by reference; and (ii)

(i) the provisions of Section 8.02 of the Collateral Agreement are specifically incorporated herein by reference; and (ii)
the terms and conditions of Section 8.4(b) hereof and Section 8.02 of the Collateral Agreement shall at all times
be applicable, including, without limitation, with respect to all limitations and requirements for consent by Freddie Mac therein
contained.


 


SECTION 9.9                  Ginnie
Mae Limitations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or any Security Document to the contrary: (i) the
provisions of Section 8.03 of the Collateral Agreement are specifically incorporated herein by reference; and (ii) the
terms and conditions of Section 8.4(c) hereof and Section 8.03 of the Collateral Agreement shall at all
times be applicable, including, without limitation, with respect to all limitations and requirements for consent by Ginnie
Mae therein contained.

ARTICLE
X


THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT


 


SECTION 10.1              
Appointment and Authority.


 


(a)               
Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such
powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders,
and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It
is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar
term) 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 such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to
create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.


 


(b)               
The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each
of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank and on behalf of any Affiliate thereof
which is a Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank, each of which Affiliate shall in any event be deemed to have joined in such appointment
by its acceptance of the benefits conferred to it herein and in the Security Documents) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes
the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender or other Secured Party for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing
any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Credit Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such
powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto (including, without limitation, to enter into additional Loan Documents
or supplements to existing Loan Documents on behalf of the Secured Parties). In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral
agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article
X for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents,
or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits
of all provisions of Articles X and XI (including Section 11.3, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact
were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.


 


SECTION 10.2              
Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers
in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the
term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise
requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates
may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for
and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.


 






    103 


     


    

 


SECTION 10.3              
Exculpatory Provisions.


 


(a)               
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other
Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder and thereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Administrative Agent:


 


(i)                
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing;


 


(ii)              
shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights
and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as
directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action
that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any
Loan Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay
under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in
violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and


 


(iii)            
shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that is
communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.


 


(b)               
The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request
of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent
shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.2 and Section 9.2)
or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by
final non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default
unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.


 


(c)               
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty
or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate,
report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.


 


SECTION 10.4               Reliance
by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any
electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement
made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any
liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Term Loan that by
its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is
satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior
to the making of such Term Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not
taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 






    104 


     


    

 


SECTION 10.5              
Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers (including as collateral agent) hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact
appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall
apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their
respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Term Loan Facility as well as activities as Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that
a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross
negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.


 


SECTION 10.6              
Resignation of Administrative Agent.


 


(a)               
The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of
any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor,
which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States.
If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days
after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required
Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated
to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or
not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective
Date.


 


(b)               
If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof, the
Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person, remove such
Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed
by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective
in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.


 


(c)                With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (1) the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
(except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of
the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such
time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the
Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring
or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties
and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.
After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring
or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.


 






    105 


     


    

 


SECTION 10.7              
Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information
as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties
and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions
in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related
Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or any such Related Party
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute
any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Related Party to any Lender. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing or any other provision of this Article X each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that it has received and
reviewed a copy of the Agency Consents (and, to the extent applicable, any consent or acknowledgment of an Agency in connection
with an Incremental Term Loan) and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof as if a signatory thereto. Each Lender (and each assignee
of a Lender that becomes a party hereto after the Closing Date) including in its capacity as a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management
Bank and on behalf of any Affiliate thereof which is a Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank, hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative
Agent to enter into the Agency Consents (and, to the extent applicable, any consent or acknowledgment of an Agency in connection
with an Incremental Term Loan) on behalf of such Lender (or other Secured Parties) and agrees that the Administrative Agent may
take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of any such Agency Consent (or other consent or acknowledgement,
as the case may be). Each Affiliate of a Lender shall in any event be deemed to have by its acceptance of the benefits conferred
to it herein and in the Security Documents agreed to the provisions of this Section 10.7.


 


SECTION 10.8              
No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the syndication agents, documentation
agents, co-agents, arrangers or bookrunners listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender
hereunder.


 


SECTION 10.9              
Collateral and Guaranty Matters.


 


(a)               
Each of the Lenders (including in its or any of its Affiliate’s capacities as a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management
Bank) irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion:


 


(i)                 to
release any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the
Secured Parties, under any Loan Document (A) upon the payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than (1) contingent
indemnification obligations and (2) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge
Agreements), (B) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection
with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents, or (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing
in accordance with Section 11.2;


 






    106 


     


    

 


(ii)              
to subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the
holder of any Lien permitted pursuant to Section 7.2(h); and


 


(iii)            
to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under any Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary
as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents.


 


Upon request by the Administrative Agent
at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate
its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Collateral
Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.9. In each case as specified in this Section 10.9, the Administrative Agent
will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may
reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the
Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Collateral
Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 10.9. In the case of any such
sale, transfer or disposal of any property constituting Collateral in a transaction constituting an Asset Disposition permitted
pursuant to Section 7.5, the Liens created by any of the Security Documents on such property shall be automatically released
without need for further action by any person.


 


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


 


SECTION 10.10          
Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements. No Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains
the benefits of Section 9.4 or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Security 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 the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) 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 X 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, Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative
Agent has received written notice of such Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may
be.

amounts or proceeds 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 (including pursuant to any settlement) under any Debtor Relief
Law, other Applicable Law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or proceeds repaid, the Secured Obligations or

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 sub-participations,
or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable
pro rata share of Term Loans previously requested, but not funded by, the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable
assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as
appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Term Loans. 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.


 






    117 


     


    

 


Subject to acceptance and recording
thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, 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 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11 and 11.3 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’s 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
paragraph (d) of this Section (other than a purported assignment to a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the
Borrower’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates (except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.9(g)), which shall be null and
void.)


 


(c)               
Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each Lender Joinder Agreement
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Term Loan Commitment of,
and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Term 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 (but only to the extent of entries in the Register that are applicable to such 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 Subsidiaries or
Affiliates) (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 Term Loan Commitment and/or the Term 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 and the other
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 11.3(c)
with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).


 


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 any
amendment, modification or waiver or modification described in Section 11.2(a), (b), (c) or (d)
that directly and adversely affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.9, 3.10 and 3.11 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including
the requirements under Section 3.11(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section
3.11(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 paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be
subject to the provisions of Section 3.12 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall
not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10 or 3.11, with respect to any participation,
than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater
payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. 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 3.12(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by
law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.4 as though it were a Lender; provided
that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.6 as though it were a Lender.


 






    118 


     


    

 


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 of (and stated interest on) each Participant’s interest in the
Term 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 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 without limitation 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)                
Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange,
continue or rollover all or a portion of its Term Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar
transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and such Lender.


 


(g)               
Borrower Buybacks. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Lender may, at any time, assign
all or a portion of its Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis to the Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth on Exhibit
H, pursuant to an offer made available to all Lenders of the applicable Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis (a “Dutch
Auction”), subject to the following limitations:


 


(i)                
the Borrower shall represent and warrant, as of the date of the launch of the Dutch Auction and on the date of any such
assignment, that neither it, its Affiliates nor any of its respective directors or officers has any Excluded Information that has
not been disclosed to the Lenders generally (other than to the extent any such Lender does not wish to receive material non-public
information with respect to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective securities) prior to such date;


 


(ii)               immediately
and automatically, without any further action on the part of the Borrower, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other
Person, upon the effectiveness of such assignment of Term Loans from a Lender to the Borrower, such Term Loans and all rights
and obligations as a Lender related thereto shall, for all purposes under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
and otherwise, be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect
and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue
of such assignment;


 






    119 


     


    

 


(iii)            
no Lender shall be required to assign its Term Loans to the Borrower; and


 


(iv)            
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing before or immediately after giving effect to such assignment.


 


SECTION
11.10           Treatment
of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the

to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement, under any other Loan

derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this
Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) an investor or prospective investor in an Approved Fund that also agrees that
Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such Approved Fund, (iv) a trustee,
collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party in an Approved Fund in connection with the

the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates from a third party that is not, to such
Person’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations to the Borrower, (k) to governmental regulatory authorities

its subsidiaries or affiliates, (l) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such Person, or (m) for
purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense. For purposes of this Section,

Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different
counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the

which imposes additional burdens on the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or further restricts the rights of the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries or gives the Administrative Agent or Lenders additional rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or
inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect.

acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that (i) the facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or
other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of

hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Credit Parties have
consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate.


 


(b)               
Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that each Lender, each Arranger and any Affiliate thereof may lend money to, invest
in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any of the Borrower, any Affiliate thereof or any other person or entity
that may do business with or own securities of any of the foregoing, all as if such Lender, Arranger or Affiliate thereof were
not a Lender or Arranger or an Affiliate thereof (or an agent or any other person with any similar role under the Term Loan Facility)
and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender, any Arranger, the Borrower or any Affiliate of the foregoing. Each
Lender, each Arranger and any Affiliate thereof may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof
for services in connection with this Agreement, the Term Loan Facility or otherwise without having to account for the same to any
other Lender, Arranger, the Borrower or any Affiliate of the foregoing.

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

SECTION 11.24          
Amendment and Restatement; No Novation. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit
Agreement, effective from and after the Closing Date. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation
of any indebtedness or other obligations owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Existing Credit Agreement based
on facts or events occurring or existing prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement. On the Closing Date, the credit
facilities described in the Existing Credit Agreement, shall be amended, supplemented, modified and restated in their entirety
by the facilities described herein, and all loans and other obligations of the Borrower outstanding as of such date under the Existing
Credit Agreement, shall be deemed to be loans and obligations outstanding under the corresponding facilities described herein,
without any further action by any Person, except that the Administrative Agent shall make such transfers of funds as are necessary
in order that the outstanding balance of such Term Loans, together with any Term Loans funded on the Closing Date, reflect the
