agreement


 


The parties to this
Amendment, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:


 


1.Amendments
to Credit Agreement. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 below, the Borrower and the
undersigned Lenders agree to amend the Credit Agreement as set forth below.


 


a.Deletion of
Defined Term. The definition of “Reference Banks” in Section 1.01 (Defined Terms) of the Credit Agreement
is hereby deleted in its entirety.


 




    	 



    	 



    

b.New Defined
Terms. The following defined terms are hereby added, in alphabetical order, to Section 1.01 (Defined Terms) of the Credit Agreement:


 


“Interpolated Rate”
means, with respect to any LIBO Rate Borrowing for any Interest Period, a rate per annum which results from interpolating on a
linear basis between (a) the applicable Screen Rate for the longest maturity for which a Screen Rate is available that is shorter
than such Interest Period and (b) the applicable Screen Rate for the shortest maturity for which a Screen Rate is available that
is longer than such Interest Period, in each case at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the date that is two Business Days
prior to the commencement of such Interest Period.


 


“Screen Rate”
has the meaning assigned to such term in the definition of “LIBO Rate” in this Section 1.01.


 


c.Amendment of
Defined Term. The definitions of “LIBO Rate” and “Prime Rate” in Section 1.01 (Defined
Terms) of the Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as follows:


 


“LIBO Rate”
means, with respect to any Interest Period, the London interbank offered rate as administered by the ICE Benchmark Administration
(or any other Person that takes over the administration of such rate for Dollars) for a period equal in length to such Interest
Period as displayed on the Reuters screen page that displays such rate (currently page LIBOR01) or, in the event such rate does
not appear on a page of the Reuters screen, on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate
as shall be selected by the Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion (in each case, the “Screen Rate”),
at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period; provided, that if
the Screen Rate shall not be available at such time for such Interest Period with respect to Dollars, then the LIBO Rate shall
be the Interpolated Rate. If the LIBO Rate (as determined pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this definition) for any Interest
Period is below zero, then the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period shall be deemed to be zero.


 


“Prime Rate”
means the rate of interest per annum determined from time to time by the Agent as its base rate in effect at its principal office
in New York City and notified to the Borrower (which Borrower acknowledges is not necessarily Lender’s lowest rate).


 


2.Representations
and Warranties. Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants, as of the date of this Amendment, that:


 


a.The representations
and warranties in each Loan Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects with the same effect
as though made on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier
date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, in each
case, such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified
by materiality in the text thereof;


 




    -2- 


     

    

b.The execution and
delivery of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action of such Loan Party. This Amendment has
been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable
in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally
and to general principles of equity;


 


c.The transactions
contemplated by this Amendment (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action
by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, except to the extent
that any such failure to obtain such consent or approval or to take any such action, would not reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any Requirement of Law applicable to such Loan Party, (c) will not violate or
result in a default under any other material indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon such Loan Party its assets,
or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by such Loan Party, and (d) will not result in the creation
or imposition of any Lien on any asset of such Loan Party; and


 


d.No Event of Default,
or event or condition that would constitute an Event of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or
both, has occurred and is continuing or would result after giving effect to this Agreement.


 


3.Ratification
and Confirmation of Loan Documents.


 


a.Except as expressly
set forth herein, the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment shall not alter, modify, amend, or in any way affect
any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants, or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document,
and shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power, or remedy of the Agent or any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any other
Loan Document.


 


b.Each Loan Party
hereby acknowledges that it has read this Amendment and consents to the terms hereof, and hereby confirms and agrees that notwithstanding
the effectiveness of this Amendment, the obligations of such Loan Party under the Loan Documents to which it is a party shall not
be impaired or affected and such Loan Documents and all promissory notes and all other instruments, documents and agreements entered
into by such Loan Party in connection with such Loan Documents are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are
hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects.


 


c.Each Subsidiary
Guarantor further agrees that nothing in the Credit Agreement, this Amendment or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to require
the consent of such Subsidiary Guarantor to any future amendment to the Credit Agreement.


 


4.Effectiveness.
This Amendment shall become effective on the date first written above (the “Effective Date”) only upon satisfaction
of the following conditions precedent on or prior to such date unless otherwise waived in writing by the Lenders:


 


a.The Agent (or its
counsel) shall have received from each party hereto either (i) a counterpart of this Amendment signed on behalf of such party or
(ii) written evidence


 




    -3- 


     

    

satisfactory
to the Agent (which may include facsimile or .pdf transmission of a signed signature page of this Amendment) that such party has
signed a counterpart of this Amendment.


 


b.The representations
and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth herein shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date.


 


c.No Event of Default,
or event or condition that would constitute an Event of Default but for the requirement that notice be given or time elapse or
both, shall be continuing as of the Effective Date.


 


d.The Agent shall
have received (i) an officer’s certificate from each Loan Party, dated the Effective Date, certifying that (A) attached thereto
are true, complete and correct copies of the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of such Loan Party (or certifying that there
have been no changes to such documents since they were most recently delivered and certified to the Agent in connection with the
Second Amendment), (B) attached thereto is a true, complete and correct copy of the resolutions duly adopted by such Loan Party
authorizing the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment and that such resolutions have not been amended, modified,
revoked or rescinded, and (C) such Loan Party is able to pay its debts as they become due and that no action has been taken by
such Loan Party, its directors or officers in contemplation of the liquidation or dissolution of such Loan Party as of the Effective
Date, and (ii) a good standing certificate for such Loan Party dated the Effective Date or a recent date prior to the Effective
Date satisfactory to the Agent from such Loan Party’s jurisdiction of organization.


 


e.The Agent shall
have received signature and incumbency certificates of the officers of each Loan Party executing this Amendment, each dated as
of the Effective Date.


 


f.The Agent and the
Lenders shall have received from the Borrower all fees required to be paid on or before the Effective Date.


 


g.The Borrower shall
have paid all reasonable and documented costs and expenses of the Agent (including the fees and expenses of Linklaters LLP as special
counsel to the Lenders to the extent previously agreed) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration
of this Amendment.


 


5.Miscellaneous.


 


a.The Loan Parties
acknowledge and agree that the representations and warranties set forth herein are material inducements to the Agent and the Lenders
to deliver this Amendment.


 


b.This Amendment
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto, and their respective permitted successors
and assigns.


 


c.This Amendment
is a Loan Document. Henceforth, this Amendment and the Credit Agreement shall be read together as one document and the Credit Agreement
shall be modified accordingly. No course of dealing on the part of the Agent, the Lenders or any of their respective officers,
nor any failure or delay in the exercise of any right by the Agent or the


 




    -4- 


     

    

Lenders,
shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude any later exercise
of any such right. The failure at any time to require strict performance by the Loan Parties of any provision of the Loan Documents
shall not affect any right of the Agent or the Lenders thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance. Any suspension
or waiver of a right must be in writing signed by an officer of the Agent, and or the Lenders, as applicable. No other person
or entity, other than the Agent and the Lenders, shall be entitled to claim any right or benefit hereunder, including, without
limitation, the status of a third party beneficiary hereunder.


 


d.This Amendment
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without reference to conflicts of law rules.
The provisions of Section 9.09 and Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement apply to this Amendment mutatis mutandis as if they were
incorporated herein.


 


e.If any provision
of this Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal
or unenforceable, that portion shall be deemed severed therefrom, and the remaining parts shall remain in full force as though
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable portion had never been a part thereof.


 


f.This Amendment
may be executed in any number of counterparts, including by electronic or facsimile transmission, each of which when so delivered
shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
