pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this subsection or (y) in the case of overdue interest, fees and other amounts, 2% above the rate described in paragraph (b) of this subsection, in each case from the date of such nonpayment until
such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date;
provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this subsection shall be payable on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the Required Lenders. 

4.8 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest in respect of ABR Loans at any time the ABR is calculated based on the Prime Rate
and all fees hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366, as the case may be, day year for the actual days elapsed. Interest in respect of Eurodollar Loans and ABR Loans at any time the ABR is not calculated based on the Prime Rate
shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Agent and the Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest
rate on a Term Loan resulting from a change in the ABR shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the ABR becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower Agent
and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change. 
 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the written request of the Borrower Agent, deliver
to the Borrower Agent a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining the Eurodollar Rate. 
 4.9
[Reserved]. 
 4.10 Certain Fees. New Holdings shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the fees set forth
in the Fee Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein. Such fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever and will be in addition to the reimbursement of the Agent’s out-of-pocket expenses in accordance with Section 11.5. 

4.11 [Reserved].

 4.15 Inability to Determine Interest Rate for Eurodollar Loans. 

(a) In the event that (i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Borrowers) that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market generally, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period (including because the Eurodollar Screen Rate is
not available or published on a current basis) with respect to (x) any Eurodollar Loans that will result from the requested conversion of all or part of ABR Loans into Eurodollar Loans or (y) the continuation of any Eurodollar Loan as such
for an additional Interest Period, (ii) the Required Lenders shall have determined (and notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such determination) (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that the
Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for any Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders constituting the Required Lenders of maintaining their affected Eurodollar Loans during such Interest Period by reason
of circumstances affecting the interbank eurodollar market generally or (iii) the Required Lenders shall have determined (and notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such determination) (which determination shall be conclusive and binding
upon the Borrowers) that dollar deposits in the relevant amount and for the relevant period with respect to any such Eurodollar Loan are not available to any of the Lenders in their respective Eurodollar Lending Offices’ interbank eurodollar
market, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Borrower Agent and the Lenders at least one day prior to, as the case may be, the conversion date or the last day of such Interest
Period. If such notice is given, (A) any ABR Loans that were to have been converted to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (B) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then current
Interest Period applicable thereto, into ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made and no ABR Loans shall be converted to Eurodollar Loans. 

(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the
circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor or the administrator of the Eurodollar
Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the Eurodollar Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for
loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurodollar Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for
syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt,
such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in subsection 11.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b)
(but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this subsection 4.15(b), only to the extent the Eurodollar Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current
basis), (x) any requested Eurodollar Loans shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any ABR Loans that were to have been converted to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted,
on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, into ABR Loans. 

  
 42 








 4.16 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each payment by the Borrowers on account of any
fee hereunder (other than as set forth in subsection 4.10) shall be made pro rata according to the Term Loan Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on the Term
Loans (other than as set forth in subsections 4.6, 4.17, 4.18 and 4.19) shall be made pro rata according to the Term Loan Percentages of the Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers on account of principal, interest
and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in lawful money of the United
States of America and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such payments ratably to each Lender in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurodollar Loans) becomes due
and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If
any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Working Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Working Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at
the then applicable rate during such extension unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Working Day. 

(b) [Reserved]. 
 (c)
[Reserved]. 
 (d) All payments and prepayments (other than mandatory prepayments as set forth in subsection 4.6 and other than prepayments
as set forth in subsection 4.18 with respect to increased costs) of Eurodollar Loans hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Eurodollar
Loans with the same Interest Period shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 
 (e)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 4.16 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrowers may (i) make prepayments of Term Loans at a discount to the par value of such Term Loans and on a non pro rata basis in
accordance with subsection 4.23, (ii) purchase Term Loans on a non pro rata basis pursuant to Open Market Purchases in accordance with subsection 11.6(h) and (iii) extend the final maturity of Term Loans in connection with an Extension
that is permitted under subsection 4.24 without being obligated to effect such extensions on a pro rata basis among the Lenders (it being understood that no such extension (x) shall constitute a payment or prepayment of any Term Loans for
purposes of this subsection or (y) shall reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due under subsection 2.2, except that the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due to a Lender of Extended Term Loans may be reduced to the
extent provided pursuant to the express terms of the respective Extension Offer) without giving rise to any 

  
 43 








 
violation of this subsection or any other provision of this Agreement. Furthermore, the Borrowers may take all actions contemplated by (A) subsection 4.23 in connection with the prepayment
of Term Loans at a discount to the par value of such Loans, (B) subsection 4.24 in connection with any Extension (including modifying pricing, amortization and repayments or prepayments of Extended Term Loans) and (C) subsection 11.6(h) in
connection with the purchase of Term Loans on a non pro rata basis pursuant to Open Market Purchases and, in each case, such actions taken in accordance with subsection 4.23, 4.24 and 11.6, as applicable, shall be permitted hereunder, and the
differing or non pro rata payments contemplated therein shall be permitted without giving rise to any violation of this subsection or any other provision of this Agreement. 

4.17 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any Change in Law occurring after the date that any Person becomes a
Lender party to this Agreement shall make it unlawful for such Lender to maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans or to convert all or a portion of ABR Loans into
Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and such Lender’s Term Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall, if required by law and if such Lender so requests in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent, be
converted automatically to ABR Loans on the date specified by such Lender in such request. To the extent that such affected Eurodollar Loans are converted into ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Eurodollar
Loans shall be applied instead to such Lender’s ABR Loans. The Borrowers hereby agree promptly to pay any Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender in making any
conversion in accordance with this subsection 4.17 including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar Loans hereunder (such Lender’s notice
of such costs, as certified to the Borrower Agent through the Administrative Agent, to be conclusive absent manifest error). 
 4.18
Requirements of Law. (a) In the event that, at any time after the Effective Date any Change in Law or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental
Authority: 
 (i) does or shall subject the Administrative Agent or any Lender 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; 
 (ii) does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit,
compulsory loan, liquidity requirement or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of
such Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
 (iii) does or shall impose on such Lender
any other condition; 

  
 44 








 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or, in the case of (i), to
such Lender or the Administrative Agent) of converting, renewing or maintaining advances or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, in each case, in respect of its Eurodollar Loans or, in the case of (i), any Term Loans,
then, in any such case, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender (or, in the case of (i), such Lender or the Administrative Agent), on demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender (or, in the case of (i), such Lender or the
Administrative Agent) for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which such Lender (or, in the case of (i), such Lender or the Administrative Agent) deems to be material as determined by such Lender (or, in the case of (i), such Lender or
the Administrative Agent) with respect to such Eurodollar Loans or, in the case of (i), any Term Loans, together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the
Applicable Margin. 
 (b) In the event that at any time after the Effective Date any Change in Law with respect to any Lender shall, in the
opinion of such Lender, have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of the obligations of such Lender hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Change in Law
(taking into account such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time following notice by such Lender to the Borrower Agent of such Change in Law as provided in
paragraph (c) of this subsection 4.18, within 15 days after demand by such Lender, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender on an after-Tax
basis for such reduction. 
 (c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection 4.18, it shall
promptly notify the Borrower Agent through the Administrative Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. If any Lender has notified the Borrower Agent through the Administrative Agent of any increased costs pursuant to
paragraph (a) of this subsection 4.18, the Borrowers at any time thereafter may, upon at least two Working Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and subject to
subsection 4.19, prepay or convert into ABR Loans all (but not a part) of the Eurodollar Loans then outstanding. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of paragraph (a) of this subsection 4.18 or
entitling a Lender to receive additional amounts under paragraph (a) or (c) of subsection 4.20 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower Agent, and to the extent permitted by law or by the relevant Governmental
Authority, endeavor in good faith to avoid or minimize the increase in costs, reduction in payments, or payment of additional amounts resulting from such event (including endeavoring to change its Eurodollar Lending Office or any other lending
office); provided, however, that such avoidance or minimization can be made in such a manner that such Lender, in its sole determination, suffers no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage. 

(d) A certificate submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of
manifest error. The covenants contained in this subsection 4.18 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the outstanding Loans. 

  
 45 








 4.19 Indemnity. The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender
harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrowers in payment of the principal amount of or interest on any Eurodollar Loans of such Lender, including, but not limited to
any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Eurodollar Loans hereunder, (b) default by the Borrowers in making a conversion of ABR Loans to
Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower Agent has given notice in accordance with subsection 4.3 or in continuing Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period after the Borrower Agent has given a notice in accordance with clause (b) of the
definition of Interest Period, (c) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower Agent has given a notice in accordance with subsection 4.3 or (d) a payment or prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan or
conversion of any Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, in either case on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (any of the events referred to in clauses (b), (c) or (d), a “Breakage Event”). In the
case of a Breakage Event, such loss or expense shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender of (i) the cost of obtaining funds for the Eurocurrency Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the
period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds
released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period, but such loss or expense shall not, in any event, include any lost profit or loss of Applicable Margin. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that
such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This covenant shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment of the outstanding Obligations.

 4.20 Taxes. 
 (a)
Defined Terms. For purposes of this subsection, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 (b) Payments Free of
Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan 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 Loan Party shall be
increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this subsection) the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender receives an
amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

  
 46 








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

(d) Indemnification by Borrowers. The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Lender,
within 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 subsection) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or
the applicable Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender 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 Agent by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e) Indemnification by the
Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already
indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of
subsection 11.6(b) 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 Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to
this subsection, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of
such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to
an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the
Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent 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 Agent or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Administrative Agent as will
enable the 

  
 47 








 
Borrowers 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 paragraphs (g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) of this subsection) shall not be required if in the
Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

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

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent on or about 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 U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the
extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about 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 Agent 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 IRS
Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and
(y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(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 871(h) or
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-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 a Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to a Borrower as 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 IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or 

  
 48 








 (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, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-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 F-4 on behalf of each such
direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Agent
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about 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 Agent 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 U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers 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 U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were
to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower Agent and the Administrative Agent at the time
or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent 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 Agent or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers 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, if any, 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 Agent and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

  
 49 








 (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 subsection (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this subsection), it shall pay to the indemnifying
party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this subsection 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 subsection shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

4.21 [Reserved]. 
 4.22
Mitigation; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under subsection 4.18, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to subsection 4.20, then such Lender shall 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 reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to subsection 4.18 or subsection 4.20, as applicable, 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 Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or
assignment. 
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under subsection 4.18, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount
to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to subsection 4.20, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice by the Borrower Agent 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 subsection 11.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (A) (i) the Borrower Agent shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have 

  
 50 








 
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 from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) the Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in
subsection 11.6(d) and (iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under subsection 4.18 or payments required to be made pursuant to subsection 4.20, such assignment will result in a material reduction in
such compensation or payments and (B) substantially concurrently with satisfaction of the requirements set forth in clause (A) of this proviso, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned and delegated its interests, rights and
obligations under this Agreement and such Lender shall not be required to execute the Assignment and Assumption in connection therewith. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a
waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

4.23 Prepayments Below Par. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including subsection 4.16(a) or
11.7(a)) or any other Loan Document, the Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay Term Loans to the Lenders at a discount to the par value of such Term Loans and on a non pro rata basis (each, a “Discounted
Voluntary Prepayment”) pursuant to the procedures described in this subsection 4.23, provided that (A) on the date of the Discounted Prepayment Option Notice and after giving effect to the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment,
Liquidity shall be greater than or equal to $25,000,000, (B) the aggregate amount of Discounted Voluntary Prepayments made in any calendar year, together with aggregate amount of Open Market Purchases made in such calendar year, shall not exceed
$50,000,000 in the aggregate, (C) any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be offered to all Lenders of a particular tranche on a pro rata basis, (D) the Borrower Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, together with each
Discounted Prepayment Option Notice, a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Agent (1) stating that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, (2) stating
that each of the conditions to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment contained in this subsection 4.23 has been satisfied and (3) specifying the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans to be prepaid pursuant to such Discounted Voluntary
Prepayment and (E) the aggregate amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this subsection 4.23 (valued at the par amount thereof) shall not exceed 50% of the initial aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans. 

(b) To the extent the Borrowers seek to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower Agent will provide written notice to the
Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Option Notice”) that the Borrowers desire to prepay Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount specified therein by the Borrower
Agent (each, a “Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount”), in each case at a discount to the par value of such Term Loans as specified below. The Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount of any Term Loans shall not be less than
$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent). The Discounted Prepayment Option Notice shall further specify with respect to the proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment (A) the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount for
Loans to be prepaid, (B) a discount range (which may be a 

  
 51 








 
single percentage) selected by the Borrower Agent with respect to such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment equal to a percentage of par of the principal amount of the Term Loans to be
prepaid (the “Discount Range”), and (C) the date by which Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which shall be at least five Business Days following the
date of the Discounted Prepayment Option Notice (the “Acceptance Date”). 
 (c) Upon receipt of a Discounted Prepayment
Option Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. On or prior to the Acceptance Date, each such Lender may specify by written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (each, a “Lender
Participation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (A) a maximum discount to par (the “Acceptable Discount”) within the Discount Range (for example, a Lender specifying a discount to par of 20% would accept a purchase
price of 80% of the par value of the Term Loans to be prepaid) and (B) a maximum principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent) of the Term Loans to be prepaid held by such Lender with respect to which
such Lender is willing to permit a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment at the Acceptable Discount (“Offered Loans”). Based on the Acceptable Discounts and principal amounts of the Term Loans to be prepaid specified by the Lenders in the
applicable Lender Participation Notice, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower Agent, shall determine the applicable discount for such Term Loans to be prepaid (the “Applicable Discount”), which Applicable
Discount shall be (A) the percentage specified by the Borrower Agent if the Borrower Agent has selected a single percentage pursuant to subsection 4.23(b) for the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment or (B) otherwise, the highest Acceptable
Discount at which the Borrowers can pay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount in full (determined by adding the principal amounts of Offered Loans commencing with the Offered Loans with the highest Acceptable Discount); provided, however,
that in the event that such Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount cannot be repaid in full at any Acceptable Discount, the Applicable Discount shall be the lowest Acceptable Discount specified by the Lenders that is within the Discount Range. The
Applicable Discount shall be applicable for all Lenders who have offered to participate in the Voluntary Discounted Prepayment and have Qualifying Loans (as defined below). Any Lender with outstanding Term Loans to be prepaid whose Lender
Participation Notice is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Acceptance Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Applicable
Discount. 
 (d) The Borrowers shall make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment by prepaying those Term Loans to be prepaid (or the respective
portions thereof) offered by the Lenders (“Qualifying Lenders”) that specify an Acceptable Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Loans”) at the Applicable Discount, provided
that if the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would exceed the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each
case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrowers shall prepay such Qualifying Loans ratably among the Qualifying Lenders based on their respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Loans (subject to rounding requirements
specified by the Administrative Agent). If the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would be less than the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted
Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrowers shall prepay all Qualifying Loans. 

  
 52 








 (e) Each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be made within five Business Days of the
Acceptance Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree, given the time required to calculate the Applicable Discount and determine the amount and holders of Qualifying Loans), without premium or penalty (and not
subject to subsection 4.19), upon irrevocable notice substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto (each a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice”), delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. New York City Time,
three Business Days prior to the date of such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which notice shall specify the date and amount of the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and the Applicable Discount determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation
with the Borrower Agent. Upon receipt of any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice is given, the amount specified in such
notice shall be due and payable to the applicable Lenders, subject to the Applicable Discount on the applicable Term Loans, on the date specified therein together with accrued interest (on the par principal amount) to but not including such date on
the amount prepaid. The par principal amount of each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of a Term Loan shall be applied ratably to reduce the remaining installments of such Term Loans. 

(f) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to reasonable
procedures (including as to timing, rounding, minimum amounts, Type and Interest Periods and calculation of Applicable Discount in accordance with subsection 4.23(c) above) established by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent. 

(g) Prior to the delivery of a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice, (A) upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower
Agent may withdraw or modify the Borrowers’ offer to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment pursuant to any Discounted Prepayment Option Notice and (B) no Lender may withdraw its offer to participate in a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment
pursuant to any Lender Participation Notice unless the terms of such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment have been modified by the Borrower Agent after the date of such Lender Participation Notice. 

(h) Nothing in this subsection 4.23 shall require the Borrowers to undertake any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment. 

4.24 Extensions of Term Loans. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers
(each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower Agent to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like maturity date, on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans
with a like maturity date) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the
maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans pursuant to the terms of the relevant 

  
 53 








 
Extension Offer (including by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans)
(each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans as so extended, as well as the original Term Loans (not so extended), being a “tranche”; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche of Term Loans from
the tranche of Term Loans from which they were converted) so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer
is delivered to the Lenders, (ii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iii), (iv) and
(v), be determined by the Borrower Agent and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an extension with respect to such Term Loans extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term
Loans”) shall have the same terms as the tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer until the maturity of such Term Loans, (iii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then latest
maturity date hereunder and the amortization schedule applicable to Term Loans pursuant to subsection 2.2 for periods prior to the Maturity Date, as applicable, may not be increased, (iv) the weighted average life of any Extended Term Loans
shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life of the Term Loans extended thereby, (v) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any
voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer, (vi) if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) in respect of which Lenders
shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans offered to be extended by the Borrower Agent pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans of such Lenders shall be extended
ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (vii) all documentation in respect of such
Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, (viii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrowers and (ix) the Minimum Tranche Amount shall be satisfied unless waived by the
Administrative Agent. 
 (b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this subsection, (i) such
Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of subsection 4.5 or 4.6 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that (x) the
Borrower Agent may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower
Agent’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower Agent) of Term Loans of any or all applicable tranches be tendered and (y) no tranche of Extended Term Loans shall be in an amount of less than $50,000,000 (or, if less, the then
aggregate outstanding amount of the Term Loans) (the “Minimum Tranche Amount”), unless such Minimum Tranche Amount is waived by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions
contemplated by this subsection (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the
requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including subsection 4.5 or 4.6 and 4.16(a)) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section. 

  
 54 








 (c) No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any
Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans (or a portion thereof). All Extended Term Loans and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative
Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Term Loans so extended and
such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Agent in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or
sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this subsection. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the
Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest maturity date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date (or such later date as may be advised by local
counsel to the Administrative Agent). 
 (d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower Agent shall provide the Administrative Agent at
least 5 Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable
administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this subsection. 

4.25 Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably designates the Borrower Agent as its representative and agent for all purposes
under the Loan Documents, including selection of interest rate options, delivery or receipt of communications, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including
in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The Borrower Agent hereby irrevocably accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon,
and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication delivered by the Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may give any notice to or communication with a Borrower or other Loan Party
hereunder to the Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower or other Loan Party. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with the Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under this
Agreement. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of a Borrower by the Borrower Agent shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to
the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. 

  
 55 








 SECTION 5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent that: 

5.1 Financial Condition. (a) (i) The audited consolidated balance sheet of the Prepetition Parent and its Subsidiaries at

(ii) the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Prepetition Parent and its Subsidiaries at March 31, 2018 and the related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the fiscal period ended on such date, fairly present in
all material respects (except, with respect to interim reports, for normal year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes) the consolidated financial position of the Prepetition Parent and its Subsidiaries
as at such date, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the fiscal periods then ended and, in the case of the statements referred to in the foregoing clause (ii), the portion of the fiscal year through March 31,
2018, in each case, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as noted therein). 
 (b) No
Change. Since the Effective Date, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.2 Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is a Person duly organized or formed, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (b) has the requisite power and authority and the legal right to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates and to conduct the business
in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that the failure to possess such power and authority and such legal right would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified and in good standing under the
laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in
compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law (including occupational safety and health, health care, pension, certificate of need, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, any
so-called “Superfund” or “Superlien” law, or any applicable federal, state, local or other statute, law, ordinance, code, rule, regulation, order or decree regulating, relating to, or
imposing liability or standards of conduct concerning, any Materials of Environmental Concern), except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.3 Corporate Power; Authorization. (a) Each Loan Party has the requisite power and authority and the legal right to make, deliver and
perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to obtain extensions of credit made or deemed made hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the
execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and in case of the Borrowers, to authorize the extensions of credit made or deemed made hereunder on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

  
 56 








 (b) No consent or authorization of, or filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of,
any Person (including any Governmental Authority) is required in connection with the extensions of credit made or deemed made hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance by any Loan Party, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or
any Loan Document to the extent that it is a party thereto, or the guarantee of the Obligations pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, except (i) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect,
(ii) filings necessary to perfect Liens created under the Loan Documents and (iii) those consents, authorizations, filings and notices, the failure of which to obtain or make could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.4 Enforceable Obligations. Each of the Loan Documents has been duly executed and
delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto and each of such Loan Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a
proceeding in equity or at law). 
 5.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of each Loan Document and the guarantee
of the Obligations pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation applicable to or binding upon any Group Member or any of its properties or assets, which violations,
individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect, and will not result in the creation or imposition (or the obligation to create or impose) of any Lien (other than any Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents) on any of its
or their respective properties or assets. 
 5.6 No Material Litigation. Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings or on Schedule 5.6,
no litigation or investigation known to any Borrower through receipt of written notice or proceeding of or by any Governmental Authority or any other Person is pending against any Group Member, (a) with respect to the validity, binding effect
or enforceability of any Loan Document, or with respect to the Term Loans deemed made hereunder, or (b) which would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.7 Investment Company Act. No Group Member is required to be registered as an “investment company” (as the quoted term is
defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended). 
 5.8 Federal Regulation. No extensions of credit hereunder will
be used for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board. No Group Member is engaged or will engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of
extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under said Regulation U. 

  
 57 








 5.9 No Default or Breach. Except as set forth in the SEC Filings made prior to the
Effective Date or on Schedule 5.9, no Group Member is in default or breach (i) in the payment or performance of any of its Contractual Obligations (other than Indebtedness) in any respect which would have a Material Adverse Effect, or
(ii) under any condition, term or requirement of any FCC License or any order, award or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator binding upon or affecting it or by which any of its properties or assets may be bound or affected in any
respect which would have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.10 Taxes. Each Group Member has paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable
on its Tax returns or extension requests or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other Taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than those the amount or
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 in the books of such Group Member), except any such Taxes, fees or charges, the
payment of which, or the failure to pay, would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no claims are being asserted with respect to any such Taxes, fees or other charges (other than those the amount or 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 in the books of the applicable Group Member), except as to any such Taxes, fees or other
charges, the payment of which, or the failure to pay, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.11 Subsidiaries; Loan Parties.
As of the Effective Date, (a) the Subsidiaries of Intermediate Holdings listed on Schedule 5.11(a) constitute all of the Domestic Subsidiaries of Intermediate Holdings, (b) the Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 5.11(b) constitute all of the
Foreign Subsidiaries of Intermediate Holdings and (c) the Loan Parties listed on Schedule 5.11(c) constitute all of the Loan Parties. As of the Effective Date, Schedule 5.11(a) identifies all of the Broadcast License Subsidiaries. 

5.12 Ownership of Property; Liens; Licenses. (a) Except as disclosed in Schedule 8.3 hereof, each Group Member has good and marketable
title to, or valid and subsisting leasehold interests in, all its real property used by such Group Member in the operation of its business, and good title to all its respective other owned property, except where the failure to have such title or
interest would not have a Material Adverse Effect. All such real property and other owned property is free and clear of any Liens, other than Liens permitted by subsection 8.3. 

(b) As of the Effective Date, Schedule 5.12 sets forth all FCC Licenses held by any Group Member (and the respective holders of such FCC
Licenses) and all other licenses and permits issued by any Governmental Authority which are held by any Group Member that are in effect as of the Effective Date and are material to the business of the Group Members. Each of the foregoing FCC
Licenses, and each other license or permit from a Governmental Authority that is material to the business of the Group Members, is valid and in full force and effect, and except as disclosed on Schedule 5.12, the Group Members are in compliance in
all material respects with the terms and conditions thereof and any requirements under applicable FCC regulation. 

  
 58 








 5.13 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or is licensed to use, all
Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No claim that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does any Borrower know of any valid basis for
any such claim. The use of Intellectual Property by the Group Members does not infringe on the rights of any Person in a manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.14 Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (a) there are
no strikes or other labor disputes against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of any Group Member have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards
Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member on account of insurance coverage, other contributions or liabilities associated with employee health and welfare benefit
plans have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Group Member.

Multiemployer Plan is, or is expected to be, Insolvent, in Reorganization, terminated or in “endangered” or “critical” status (within the meaning of Section 432 of the Code or Section 305 of ERISA). 

5.16 Environmental Matters. (a) Except as disclosed in the SEC Filings or on Schedule 5.16, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, the
Properties do not contain any Materials of Environmental Concern in concentrations which constitute a violation of, or would reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, Environmental Laws that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) The Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except for failure to be in
compliance that would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 59 








 (c) No Group Member has received any written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to the Properties that would have a Material Adverse Effect, nor does any Borrower
have knowledge that any such action is being contemplated, considered or threatened. 
 (d) There are no judicial proceedings or
governmental or administrative actions pending or threatened under any Environmental Law to which any Group Member is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties that would have a Material Adverse Effect, nor are there any consent
decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties that would have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.17 Disclosure. None of the written reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information (other than projections,
budgets or other estimates or forward-looking statements or information of a general economic or industry nature or reports or studies prepared by third parties that were not expressly commissioned by a Group Member (collectively, the
“Projections”)), taken as a whole, furnished by or on behalf of any Group Member to the Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to the Effective Date in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished prior to the Effective Date) contains any material misstatement of 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 materially misleading; provided that, with respect to Projections, the Borrowers represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon
assumptions believed by the Borrowers to be reasonable at the time such Projections were prepared, it being understood that Projections by their nature are uncertain and no assurance is given that the results reflected in such Projections will be
achieved. 
 5.18 Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law). In the case of the Pledged
Stock that are Securities (as defined in the UCC) described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent (together with a properly completed and signed
stock power or endorsement), and in the case of the other Collateral in which a security interest can be perfected under the relevant UCC by filing a UCC financing statement and described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing
statements and other filings specified on Schedule 5.18 in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 5.18, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right,
title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in the
case of Collateral other than Pledged Stock, Liens permitted by subsection 8.3 and, in the case of Collateral consisting of Pledged Stock, inchoate Liens arising by operation of law). 

  
 60 








 (b) Each of the Mortgages upon proper filing is effective to create in favor of the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law), and when the Mortgages are filed in the
appropriate recording offices, each such Mortgage shall constitute a valid and enforceable Lien with record notice to third parties on all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as
security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except that that the Lien created in the Mortgaged Properties may be subject to the Liens permitted by
subsection 8.3). 
 5.19 Solvency. As of the Effective Date and after giving effect to the Transactions, New Holdings and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent. 
 5.20 [Reserved]. 

5.21 Patriot Act. To the extent applicable, each Group Member is in compliance, in all material respects, with (i) the Trading
with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, and
(ii) the Act. No part of the proceeds of the Term Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone
else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended. 

5.22 Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions. Each Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to
ensure compliance by such Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and each Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees,
and to the knowledge of such Borrower, its directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (a) any Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective
directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any agent of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a
Sanctioned Person. No transaction contemplated by the Credit Agreement will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions. 
 5.23
Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. None of New Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” (within the meaning of Plan Asset Regulations), and neither the execution, delivery or performance of
the transactions contemplated under this Agreement, including the deemed making the Term Loans hereunder, will give rise to a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code. The representation in this section 5.23 is based on the assumption that none of the Lenders is, or is acting on behalf of, a benefit plan investor as defined in section 3(42) of ERISA.

 SECTION 10. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT  

10.1 Authorization and Action. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the
heading of this Agreement and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to
exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative
Agent may have under such Loan Documents. 
 (b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents
(including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written
instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each
Lender; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an
indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any
requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any
such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable
for the failure to disclose, any information relating to New Holdings, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers
if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in each instance where
discretionary rights or powers conferred upon the Administrative Agent may be exercised or refrained from being exercised, the Administrative Agent shall have the absolute right, in its sole discretion, to consult with, or seek the affirmative or
negative vote from, the Required Lenders or, if otherwise applicable, the Lenders, and it may do so pursuant to a negative notice or otherwise. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of God; earthquakes; fire; flood; terrorism; wars and other military
disturbances; sabotage; epidemics; riots; business interruptions; loss or malfunctions of utilities, computer (hardware or software) or communication services; accidents; labor disputes; acts of civil or military authority and governmental action.


  
 97 








 (d) The Administrative Agent shall not be (i) required to qualify in any jurisdiction in
which it is not presently qualified to perform its obligations as Administrative Agent or (ii) required to take any enforcement action against a Loan Party or any other obligor outside of the United States. 

(e) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf
of the Lenders (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other
relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other
implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties);
additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby;
and 
 (ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender
for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account. 
 (f) The Administrative Agent may
perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers 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 pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence
or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent. 

  
 98 








 (g) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal,
state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, 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 any of the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(i) 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 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 under subsections 4.7, 4.10, 4.18,
4.20 and 11.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (ii) 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 proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each other Secured Party 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 or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under subsection 11.5). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed
to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the
Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 (h) The provisions of this Section 10.1
are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and, except solely to the extent of any Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of New Holdings or any
Subsidiary shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the guarantees of the Obligations
provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article. 
 10.2 Administrative Agent’s
Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.. (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents (x) with the consent of 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 to be necessary, under the
circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable
judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for 

  
 99 








 
any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is
a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Agent or a Lender, and 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants,
agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or
document, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 6 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered
to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such
promissory note has been assigned in accordance with subsection 11.6, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in subsection 11.6(d), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent public
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or
representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) 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, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice to the contrary from such Lender sufficiently in advance of the making of such Term Loan and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by
acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof). 

10.3 Posting of Communications. (a) The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any
Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the
“Approved Electronic Platform”). 

  
 100 








 (b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with
generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is
secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a
deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there
are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. 

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE
PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE
COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM
VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY,
“APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN
TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. 

“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of
any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved
Electronic Platform. 
 (d) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been
posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the
form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address. 

  
 101 








 (e) Each of the Lenders agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required
by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies. 

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to
any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document. 
 (g) The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that certain of the Lenders
may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities) (each, a “Public
Lender”). The Borrowers hereby agree that so long as any Loan Party is the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such
securities it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) that may be
distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page
thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Loan Parties shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided,
however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 11.15); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made
available through a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable
only for posting on a portion of the Approved Electronic Platform not designated “Public Investor.” The Borrowers agree that (i) any Loan Documents and notifications of changes of terms of the Loan Documents (including term sheets)
and (ii) any materials delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 will be deemed to be “public-side” Borrower Materials and may be made available to Public Lenders. 

10.4 The Administrative Agent Individually. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent applicable, have and
may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The terms
“Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include, if applicable, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Required Lenders,
as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent 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
banking, trust or other business with, New Holdings, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

  
 102 








 10.5 Successor Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time
by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower Agent, and the Required Lenders may remove the Administrative Agent for any reason upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower Agent, in each case whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent with the approval of the
Borrower Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and not required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and
shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent,
which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case (whether a resignation or a removal), such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower Agent (which approval
may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative
Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the
retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent,
the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall, in the event that a successor Administrative Agent is being appointed at the time of such resignation or removal, take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor
Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. A retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall, in the event that a successor Administrative Agent is not appointed at the time of such resignation or removal, take
all actions reasonably requested by the Borrower Agent or the Required Lenders (for a reasonable period of time, not to exceed 60 days) (including providing the Borrower Agent and the Required Lenders with a copy of the Registrar and other documents
and information in the possession of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent that is reasonably requested by the Required Lenders or the Borrower Agent) in connection with (x) in the case of the Required Lenders, the Required
Lenders’ performance of the duties and obligations of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and (y) in the case of the Borrowers, the Borrowers’ obligation to make payments directly to the Lenders and provide notices and
information directly to the Lenders. 
 (b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative
Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment (x) within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign or (y) within 20 days after the removed Administrative Agent
receives notice of its removal, as applicable, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower Agent or the Required Lenders may give notice of the effectiveness of the
removal of the Administrative Agent to the Administrative Agent and the 

  
 103 








 
Borrower Agent, as applicable, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation or removal stated in such notice, (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security Document for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Security
Document and Loan Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case solely until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts
such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Security Document), and (ii) the Required Lenders
shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 4.20 and other than any rights to indemnity payments
or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the effectiveness of such resignation or retirement); provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the
Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent
shall also directly be given or made to each Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and subsection 11.5, as well as any exculpatory,
reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, 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 and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause
(i) above. 
 10.6 Acknowledgements of Lenders. (a) Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding
commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Term Loans hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public
information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning New Holdings and its Affiliates) 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. 
 (b) Each Lender, by
delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date (or who shall otherwise be deemed to be party to this Agreement by virtue of the order of the Bankruptcy Court confirming the Plan of Reorganization), or delivering its signature
page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a 

  
 104 








 
Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or
satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date. 
 10.7 Collateral Matters. (a) Except with respect
to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with subsection 11.7(b) or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of
the Collateral or to enforce any guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in
accordance with the terms thereof. 
 (b) [Reserved] 

(c) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any
property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by subsection 8.3(h). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for (i) perfecting,
maintaining, monitoring, preserving or protecting the security interest or Lien granted under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the filing,
re-filing, recording, re-recording or continuing any document, financing statement, Mortgage, assignment, notice, instrument of further assurance or other instrument in
any public office at any time or times or (iii) providing, maintaining, monitoring or preserving insurance on or the payment of taxes with respect to any of the Collateral. The actions described in items (i) through (iii) shall be the sole
responsibility of the Borrowers. 
 10.8 Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent,
at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or
otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections
363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at
the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and
shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis
that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or
debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents as designated)
shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit 

  
 105 








 
bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents as designated) shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (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, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their
permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on
actions by the Required Lenders contained in subsection 11.1 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents as designated) on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be
authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition
vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle
are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or
otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such
Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the
acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests
in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by such credit bid. 
 10.9 Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of
the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations) of one or more Benefit

class 

  
 106 








 
exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement, and the conditions for exemptive
relief thereunder are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith, 
 (iii) (A) such Lender is an investment
fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such
Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Term Loans and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement, or 

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, and such Lender. 
 (b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately
preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause
(a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender
party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, that: 

(i) none of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender
(including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto), 

(ii) the Person making the investment decision on behalf of such Lender with respect to the entrance into, participation in,
administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement is independent (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-21, as amended from time to time) and is a bank, an insurance carrier, an
investment adviser, a broker-dealer or other person that holds, or has under management or control, total assets of at least $50 million, in each case as described in 29 CFR §
2510.3-21(c)(1)(i)(A)-(E), 
 (iii) the Person making the investment decision on
behalf of such Lender with respect to the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement is capable of evaluating investment risks independently, both in general and with regard to particular
transactions and investment strategies (including in respect of the Obligations), 

  
 107 








 (iv) the Person making the investment decision on behalf of such Lender with
respect to the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement is a fiduciary under ERISA or the Code, or both, with respect to the Term Loans and this Agreement and is responsible for
exercising independent judgment in evaluating the transactions hereunder, and 
 (v) no fee or other compensation is being
paid directly to the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for investment advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the Term Loans or this Agreement. 

(c) The Administrative Agent hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to
give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive
interest or other payments with respect to the Term Loans and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Term Loans for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Term Loans by such Lender or
(iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Loan Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees,

 10.10 Indemnification.
The Lenders severally agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), ratably (determined at the time such
indemnity is sought) according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans and obligations, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Term Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan
Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender
shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. The agreements contained in this subsection 10.10 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

  
 108 








 SECTION 11. MISCELLANEOUS 

11.1 Amendments and Waivers. No Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter) or any terms thereof may be amended, supplemented, waived or
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection 11.1. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented
or modified except pursuant to a document in writing entered into by the Required Lenders and the Loan Parties that are party hereto or thereto, as applicable; provided, however, that: 

(a) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) directly or indirectly release all or substantially all of
the Collateral or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or (ii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, in each case without the written
consent of all Lenders; 
 (b) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) extend the scheduled maturity
of any Term Loan or scheduled installment of any Term Loan or reduce any scheduled installment of any Term Loan or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to
amend the default rate provided in subsection 4.7(c) or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest at such default rate) or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or change the method of calculating interest thereon, or reduce
the amount or extend the time of payment of any fee payable to the Lenders hereunder without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this subsection 11.1 or consent to the
assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document without the consent of all Lenders, (iii) amend, modify or waive subsection 4.16(a) in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata
sharing of payments required thereby or (iv) amend, modify or waive Section 6.5 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with respect to the priority of payments set forth therein, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender
directly and adversely affected thereby; provided, that any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders if such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification otherwise satisfies
the requirements of this clause (b); 
 (c) [Reserved]; 

(d) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement, modification or consent shall adversely affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the written consent of the Administrative Agent; and 
 (e)
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent to establish an Extension permitted by subsection 4.24. 

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification described in this subsection 11.1 shall apply equally to each of the
Lenders and shall be binding upon each Loan Party, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Term Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former
position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Term Loans, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or
impair any right consequent thereon. 

  
 109 








 Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the
Borrowers, may amend, modify or supplement any Loan Document without the consent of any Lender or the Required Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest
error in any Loan Document. 
 In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed
Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not
obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this subsection 11.1 being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and
effort, upon notice from the Borrower Agent to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate,
without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in subsection 11.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that (i) (a) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (b) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from
the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), (c) the Borrowers or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and
recordation fee specified in subsection 11.6(d) and (d) such assignee has consented to the Proposed Change and (ii) substantially concurrently with satisfaction of the requirements set forth in clause (i) of this proviso, such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned and delegated its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and such Non-Consenting Lender shall not be
required to execute the Assignment and Assumption in connection therewith. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended
with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all or any portion of the outstanding Term
Loans (“Replaced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided, that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the
aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Term Loans, (b) the terms of Replacement Term Loans are (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors and optional prepayment or redemption terms), taken as a whole, no more favorable to the lenders providing
such Replacement Term Loans than those applicable to the Replaced Term Loans (other than any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Maturity Date), (c) the maturity date of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be earlier
than the maturity date of the Replaced Term Loans and (d) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Replaced Term Loans at the time of such
refinancing.

Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements

third party claims for personal injury or real or personal property damage) which may be incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee (x) arising out of or in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding related to this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Term Loans, or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, (y) with respect to any environmental matters, any environmental compliance
expenses and remediation expenses in connection with the presence, suspected presence, release or suspected release of any Materials of Environmental Concern in or into the air, soil, groundwater, surface water or improvements at, on, about, under,

limiting the generality of the foregoing, by reason of or in connection with the execution, performance, delivery, enforcement or administration, of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the
“indemnified liabilities”), provided that the Borrowers shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee (x) with respect to indemnified liabilities to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or (other than in the case of the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties) material breach by, such Indemnitee,
(y) under this subsection 11.5 for any Taxes other than Other Taxes or Taxes derived from a non-Tax claim or (z) with respect to indemnified liabilities arising out of a dispute solely between
Indemnified Parties not involving an act or omission by New Holdings or any of its Affiliates (other than any such indemnified liabilities asserted against any Indemnitee in its capacity, or in fulfilling its role, as an agent or similar role for
the Term Loans). All amounts due under this subsection 11.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. The agreements in this subsection 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Intermediate Holdings, the Borrowers, the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent, all future holders of the Term Loans, and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations hereunder except in accordance with
this Section. 
 (b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one
or more banks or other financial institutions or Lender Affiliates (other than a Disqualified Person) (“Participants”) participating interests in any Term Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender or any other interest
of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, each Lender shall have the right to sell one or more participations in all or any part of its Term Loans or
any other Obligation to one or more 

  
 114 








 
lenders or other Persons that provide financing to such Lender in the form of sales and repurchases of participations without having to satisfy the foregoing requirements. In the event of any
such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance
thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Term Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment,
modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to Section 11.1(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that if amounts outstanding under
this Agreement and the Term Loans are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its
participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Term Loan to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement or any Term Loan; provided that such
Participant shall only be entitled to such right of setoff if it shall have agreed in the agreement pursuant to which it shall have acquired its participating interest to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof, as provided in subsection 11.7.
The Borrowers also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and shall be subject to the limitations of, subsections 4.17, 4.18, 4.19 and 4.20 with respect to its participation in the Term Loans outstanding from time to time;
provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive (i) any greater amount pursuant to such subsections than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by
such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred or (ii) the benefits of subsection 4.20 unless such Participant complies with subsection 4.20(g) as if it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation
required under subsection 4.20(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and
address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). No Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person except to the extent such disclosure is necessary to establish that any Term Loan or Note is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall
treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 

  
 115 








 (c) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law,
with the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent;
provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or a portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund; 

(ii) [Reserved]; and 

(iii) the Borrower Agent; provided that (A) (i) no consent of the Borrower Agent shall be required for an
assignment to a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund or (ii) if an Event of Default under Section 9(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing and (B) the Borrower Agent shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment
unless the Borrower Agent has objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof, 

sell to any Eligible Assignee (an “Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other
Loan Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lender (except as otherwise permitted by subsection 4.22 and subsection 11.1) and, to the extent their consent is required, the Borrower Agent and the
Administrative Agent, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below); provided that (A) each such sale pursuant to this subsection 11.6(c) of less than all of a Lender’s
rights and obligations (I) to a Person which is not then a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund shall be of Term Loans of not less than $1,000,000 and (II) to a Person which is then a Lender, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved
Fund may be in any amount and (B) each Assignee shall comply with the provisions of subsection 4.20 hereof; provided, further that the foregoing shall not prohibit a Lender from selling participating interests in accordance with
subsection 11.6(a) in all or any portion of its Term Loans (without duplication). For purposes of clause (A) of the first proviso contained in the preceding sentence, the amount described therein shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender
and its Lender Affiliates, if any. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the
extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with the Term Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest transferred, as
reflected in such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under
this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of subsections 4.17, 4.18, 4.19, 4.20 and 11.5). Such Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the
extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Assignee and the resulting adjustment of Term Loan Percentages arising from the purchase by such Assignee of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such assigning
Lender under this Agreement. 
 Each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have
represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any prospective assignee is an
Eligible Assignee or have any liability with respect to any assignment made to a Disqualified Lender or any other Person that is not an Eligible Assignee or enforcing the list of Disqualified Lenders. 

  
 116 








 If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Lender, the Borrowers may, at
their sole expense and effort, upon notice from the Borrower Agent to the applicable Disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) in the case of outstanding Term Loans held by such Disqualified Lender, purchase or prepay such Term Loan
by paying the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal
amounts) payable to it hereunder and/or (B) require such Disqualified Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this subsection 11.6), all of its interest, rights and obligations under
this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations, in each case plus accrued interest,
accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Lenders (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrowers, the Borrower Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender,
(y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action
(or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and
(y) for purposes of voting on any Bankruptcy Plan, each Disqualified Lender party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such Bankruptcy Plan, (2) if such Disqualified Lender does vote on such Bankruptcy Plan notwithstanding the
restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and
such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Bankruptcy Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and
(3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the bankruptcy court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2). 

For the purposes of this subsection 11.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a Disqualified Person) that is engaged
in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an
affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 

  
 117 








 (d) The Administrative Agent acting on behalf of and as agent for the Borrowers, shall maintain
at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in subsection 11.2 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the
principal amount (and stated interest) of Term Loans owing to each Lender. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Term Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower Agent or any Lender at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and
Assumption executed by an assigning Lender, an Assignee and any other party required to executed such Assignment and Assumption pursuant to this subsection 11.6, together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee
of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (x) in the case of an assignee which is already a Lender or is an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender or
(y) if waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto, record the information
contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower Agent. The Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which
the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about New Holdings and its Affiliates and their related parties or
their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws. 

(e) The Borrowers authorize each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective
Transferee or to any pledgee referred to in subsection 11.6(f) or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or
professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those of subsection 11.15) any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning New Holdings
and its Subsidiaries which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers in connection with such Lender’s credit
evaluation of New Holdings and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement; provided that no such information shall be provided by any Lender to any Disqualified Lender. 

(f) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this subsection concerning assignments of Term
Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including any pledge or assignment (i) by a Lender of any Term Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank or
central bank having jurisdiction over such lender in accordance with applicable law and (ii) by a Lender Affiliate which is a fund to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided that any transfer of Term Loans or
Notes upon, or in lieu of, enforcement of or the exercise of remedies under any such pledge shall be treated as an assignment thereof which shall not be made without compliance with the requirements of this subsection 11.6. 

  
 118 








 (g) The Borrowers, upon receipt by the Borrower Agent of written notice from the relevant Lender,
agree to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (f) above. 
 (h) Any
Lender may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to New Holdings through, notwithstanding
subsection 4.16(a) or 11.7(a) or any other provision in this Agreement, an open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis (an “Open Market Purchase”); provided, that: 

(i) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so assigned or transferred to
New Holdings shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such assignment or transfer, (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and
extinguishing of the Term Loans then held by New Holdings and (c) the Borrower Agent shall promptly provide written notice to the Administrative Agent of such assignment or transfer of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt
of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register; 
 (ii) on the date of any Open
Market Purchase and after giving effect thereto, Liquidity shall be greater than or equal to $25,000,000; and 
 (iii) the
aggregate amount of Open Market Purchases made in any calendar year, together with the aggregate amount of Discounted Voluntary Prepayments made in such calendar year, shall not exceed $50,000,000 in the aggregate. 

11.7 Adjustments; Set-off. 

(a) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement (including subsections 4.23, 4.24 and 11.6), if any Lender (a “Benefited
Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of any of its Term Loans or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by
set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9(f), or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in
respect of such other Lender’s Term Loans, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders such portion of each such other Lender’s Term Loans or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits
of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if
all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The
Borrowers agree that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Term Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of 

  
 119 








 
set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give the
Borrower Agent notice of any set-off, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off. 

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 9(a) or Section 9(f), the Administrative Agent and each Lender
are hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being hereby waived by the Borrowers, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or
such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, on account of the liabilities of the Borrowers hereunder
and under the other Loan Documents and claims of every nature and description of the Administrative Agent or such Lender against the Borrowers in any currency, whether arising hereunder, or otherwise, under any other Loan Document as the
Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender has made any demand for payment and although such liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Lender
shall notify the Borrower Agent (and in the case of a setoff made by a Lender, the Administrative Agent) promptly of any such setoff made by it and the application made by it of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such
notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which the Administrative
Agent or such Lender may have. 
 11.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement
on any number of separate counterparts and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by e-mail
or facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. 
 11.9 Integration. Except for
matters set forth in the Fee Letter, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no
promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof or thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents. 

11.10 GOVERNING LAW; NO THIRD PARTY RIGHTS. (a) THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE TERM LOANS AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TERM LOANS SHALL, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN ANY MORTGAGE OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW

(iv) AGREES THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR

 121

(vi) EACH PARTY HERETO UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING REFERRED TO IN PARAGRAPH (a) ABOVE.

 11.12 Acknowledgements. Each of Intermediate Holdings and each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges that: 

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 

(b) none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has any fiduciary relationship to any Loan Party, and the relationship between the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor; and 

(c) no joint venture exists among the Lenders or among any Loan Parties and the Lenders. 

11.13 Releases of Guarantees and Liens. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably
authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by subsection 11.1) and the Administrative Agent hereby agrees to take any action requested by the Borrower Agent having the effect of
releasing or evidencing the release of any Collateral or guarantee obligations (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with subsection
11.1 or (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below. 
 (b) At such time as the Term Loans and the other
obligations under the Loan Documents (other than contingent indemnity obligations not due and payable) shall have been paid in full in cash, the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, and the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall terminate, all without delivery
of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 

  
 122 








 11.14 Joint and Several Liability. Each of the Borrowers shall be jointly and severally
liable with the other Borrowers for the Obligations. Each Borrower acknowledges that it is a co-borrower hereunder and is jointly and severally liable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any
payment made by a Borrower in respect of Obligations owing by one or more Borrowers shall be deemed a payment of such Obligations by and on behalf of all Borrowers. All Term Loans deemed to be extended to or on behalf of any Borrower shall be deemed
to be Term Loans extended for or on behalf of each of the Borrowers. 
 Each Borrower agrees that the joint and several liability of the
Borrowers provided for in this Section 11.14 shall not be impaired or affected by any modification, supplement, extension or amendment or any contract or agreement to which the other Borrowers may hereafter agree (other
than an agreement signed by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders specifically releasing such liability), nor by any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect
to any of the Obligations, nor by any other agreements or arrangements whatsoever with the other Borrowers or with any other Person, each Borrower hereby waiving all notice of such delay, extension, release, substitution, renewal, compromise or
other indulgence, and hereby consenting to be bound thereby as fully and effectually as if it had expressly agreed thereto in advance. The liability of each Borrower is direct and unconditional as to all Obligations, and may be enforced without
requiring the Administrative Agent or any Lender first to resort to any other right, remedy or security. Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, each Borrower hereby expressly waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other
notice with respect to any of the Obligations, the Notes, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or
exhaust any right or take any action against any Borrower or any other person or any collateral. 
 Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives
and releases each other Borrower from all “claims” (as defined in Section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code) to which such Borrower is or would be entitled by virtue of the provisions of the first paragraph of this
Section 11.14 or the performance of such Borrower’s obligations thereunder with respect to any right of subrogation (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise), reimbursement,
contribution, exoneration or similar right, or indemnity, or any right of recourse to security for any Obligations. 
 11.15
Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential all Information (as defined below) provided to it by any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this
Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (b) subject to an agreement to comply with
confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section, to any actual or prospective Transferee or any pledgee referred to in subsection 11.6(f) or any direct or indirect counterparty to any swap agreement (or any professional
advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its Affiliates or to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants 

  
 123 








 
and other professional advisors or those of any of its Affiliates (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such
information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant
to any Requirement of Law, (f) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (g) that has been publicly disclosed (other than in violation of this subsection 11.15), (h) to the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such
Lender (it being understood that any rating agency to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential) or (i) in connection with the exercise of
any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that, unless prohibited by applicable law or court order, such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower Agent of any disclosure pursuant to
clauses (d) or (e). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to New Holdings, its Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that is
available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to
data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry. 
 Each Lender acknowledges that information
furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrowers and their Affiliates and their related parties or their respective
securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material
non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the
course of administering, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about any Borrower and its Affiliates and their
related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may
contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

11.16 Usury Savings. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged hereunder, including all charges
or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law, shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate (as such term is defined below). If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this
Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate (as defined below), the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of
interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if and when the Term Loans made hereunder are repaid in full 

  
 124 








 
the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of
interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of
interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the Lenders and the Borrowers to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any
Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be
applied to the outstanding amount of the Term Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Borrowers. As used in this paragraph, the term “Highest Lawful Rate” means the maximum lawful interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to
time may be contracted for, charged, or received under the laws applicable to such Lender which are presently in effect or, to the extent allowed by law, under such applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher maximum
nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws now allow. 
 11.17 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited
or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.18 Patriot Act. Each Lender
that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the
requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers and each other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and each other Loan Party and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers and each other Loan Party in accordance with the Act. 
 11.19
Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such
parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and
acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 
 (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any
such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i)
a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

  
 125 








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