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 of the United States,

that would 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) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or
debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid,
(ii) 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 the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in
clauses (a) through (i) of Section 10.01 of this Agreement, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Secured Parties, as

credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral


  
 19 








 
for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the
acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Secured Obligations
that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.” 

(ss) Section 9.10 (Guaranty Matters) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a
transaction permitted hereunder (unless such Person continues to guarantee the Senior Notes); 
 (b) to release any Lien on
any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) contingent indemnification obligations,
(y) obligations under any Guaranteed Cash Management Agreement and (z) obligations under any Guaranteed Hedge Agreement) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which

In addition, immediately upon the Collateral Release Date and without further action of any Person, the security interests of the
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties in the Collateral shall be terminated and released; provided that the Guarantee of each Loan Party of the Obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents shall remain in effect. The Administrative
Agent shall execute and deliver, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents or other instruments that the Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence the termination and release of such security interests and shall return all such Collateral in
their possession to the Borrower. 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the
authority of the Administrative Agent to release or subordinate its interest in particular property and of the Administrative Agent to release any Guarantor from its

interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this
Section 9.10. For the avoidance of doubt, the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Collateral Documents at any time prior to the Collateral Release Date shall not be permitted without the written consent of
each Lender hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any
representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection
therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.”

 SECTION 3. Representations and Warranties. To induce the other parties hereto to enter
into this Amendment, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that, on and as of the date hereof: 

(a) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other
organizational action, and does not conflict with or result in any material breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under (other than Liens permitted by clause (a) of Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement), or require any
payment to be made under any material Contractual Obligation to which such Person is a party or affecting such Person or its properties or any of its Subsidiaries; (iii) violate any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental
Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (iv) violate any Law in any material respect. 
 (b)
No approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of
this Amendment except such approvals, consents, exemptions, authorizations or other actions as have been made or obtained, as applicable, and are in full force and effect. 

(c) This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party. Each of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement constitutes, and
each other Loan Document when so delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency
or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally or by general principles of equity. 
 (d) Both immediately
before and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment on the date hereof, the representations and warranties of the Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in Article V of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, are true and
correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar concept applies to any representation or warranty, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all
respects), except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (except, if a qualifier relating to materiality, Material Adverse
Effect or a similar concept applies to any representation or warranty, such representation or warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date. 

(e) No Default or Event of Default exists, or will result from the execution of this Amendment on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date. 

SECTION 4. Fees; Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with this Amendment as and to the extent required pursuant to Section 10.04(a) of the Credit Agreement, including the fees,
charges and disbursements of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP. 
 SECTION 5.
Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent. Each Consenting Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis, appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan 

  
 24 








 
Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decisions to enter into this Amendment. Each Consenting Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Amendment,
the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their
Affiliates. 
 SECTION 6. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in
different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with
respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating
to the subject matter hereof. So long as this Amendment shall have become binding and effective on the parties hereto as of the date hereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 2, delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page
to this Amendment by any other Lender shall, immediately upon delivery, bind such Lender as a Consenting Lender to the terms of this Amendment and this Amendment shall be binding and effective as to such Consenting Lender in accordance with
Section 2. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (including PDF) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 7. Severability. If any provision of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal,
invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall
endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity
of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 8. Governing Law. THIS AMENDMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR
OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

SECTION 9. Submission to Jurisdiction. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE ANY ACTION,
LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER IN LAW OR EQUITY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR OTHERWISE, AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER, OR ANY RELATED PARTY OF THE FOREGOING IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT,
THE CREDIT 

  
 25 








 
AGREEMENT, THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO, IN ANY FORUM OTHER THAN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK
COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS AND AGREES THAT
ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL
JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION, LITIGATION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AMENDMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT
ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTIES
IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 
 SECTION 10. WAIVER OF VENUE. THE BORROWER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT, THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS, OR ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 9. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY
SUCH COURT. 
 SECTION 11. SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED
FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 10.02 OF THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS AMENDMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 

SECTION 12. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including
in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i)(A) the arranging and other services regarding
this Amendment provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the
terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby, by the Credit Agreement 

  
 26 








 
and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the
relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has any obligation to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein, in the Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender has any obligation to
disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to any breach
or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 
 SECTION 13.
Headings. The headings of this Amendment are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. 

SECTION 14. Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise
limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way
affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing
herein shall be deemed to entitle any Loan Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document in similar or different circumstances. This Amendment shall apply and be effective only with respect to the matters set forth herein. After the date hereof, any reference to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement, as modified
hereby. 
 SECTION 15. Loan Document. This Amendment shall be a Loan Document for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents.
