 REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of July 8, 2010, by and among AIR

ARTICLE II 

The Revolving Credit Loans 
 SECTION 2.01. Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth,
each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make loans in Designated Currencies (the “Revolving Credit Loans”) to the Parent or to an Other Borrower from time to time on or after the date hereof and to but not including the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date; provided, 
  

	 	(i)	A Lender shall have no obligation to make any Revolving Credit Loan to the extent that, upon the making of such Loan, the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Committed Amount; and 


  
 19 










	 	(ii)	No Revolving Credit Loans shall be made hereunder to the extent that such Revolving Credit Loans would cause the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Total Revolving Credit
Exposure to exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. 

 Each Lender’s “Revolving Credit Committed Amount” at
any time shall be equal to the amount set forth as its “Initial Revolving Credit Committed Amount” on Schedule IV, as such amount may have been reduced pursuant to Section 2.04(c) or increased pursuant to Section 2.09 hereof at
such time, and subject to transfer to or from another Lender as provided in Section 12.14 hereof. 
 (b) Nature of
Credit. Within the limits of time and amount set forth in this Section 2.01, and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Credit Loans hereunder. Each Revolving Credit Loan shall be
made to a single Borrower and shall be made in one of the Designated Currencies selected by the Parent in accordance with this Article II. 
 (c) Maturity. To the extent not due and payable earlier, the Revolving Credit Loans shall be due and payable on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. 

SECTION 2.02. Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual
practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Revolving Loan and Competitive Bid Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable
and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it
will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, and the Funding Period or Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each
Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from any Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein
recorded (absent manifest error); provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the
Obligations in accordance with their terms. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
 (d) Any Lender may request that its Revolving Credit
Loans be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit A and that its Competitive Bid Loans be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit B. In such event,


  
 20 









 
the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender such Notes payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Notes and interest thereon shall at all
times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.14) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 12.14, except to the extent that any such Lender or
assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. 
 SECTION 2.03. Making of Revolving Credit Loans. (a) Procedures. Whenever the Parent desires that the Lenders make Revolving Credit Loans, the Parent shall provide Standard Notice to the
Administrative Agent setting forth the following information: 
  

	 	(i)	the identity of the Relevant Borrower; 

  

	 	(ii)	the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which such proposed Loans are to be made; 


 

	 	(iii)	the Designated Currency in which such proposed Loans are to be made and the aggregate principal amount of such proposed Loans, which shall be the sum of the principal
amounts selected pursuant to clause (iv) of this Section 2.03(a) and which (A) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars shall be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (B) in the case of Loans
denominated in a Designated Currency shall have an aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount not less than $5,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of the amount determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time to be the basic unit in which
such currency is traded in the eurocurrency market; provided that in the case of Loans made to refinance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.10(d), such Loans may be in the amount of such
LC Disbursement; 

  

	 	(iv)	the interest rate Option or Options selected in accordance with Section 2.05(a) hereof and the principal amounts selected in accordance with Section 2.05(c)
hereof of the Base Rate Portion and each Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion of such proposed Loans; and 

  

	 	(v)	with respect to each such Funding Segment of such proposed Loans, the Funding Period to apply to such Funding Segment, selected in accordance with Section 2.05(b)
hereof. 

 Standard Notice having been so provided, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the information
contained therein and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan, calculated in accordance with Section 2.03(b). Unless any applicable condition specified in Article VI hereof has not been satisfied, on the date specified in such Standard
Notice each Lender shall 

  
 21 









 
make the proceeds of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, no later than 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time, in funds immediately
available. The Administrative Agent will make the funds so received available to the Relevant Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s Office in funds immediately available; provided that the Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of
Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.10(d) directly to the applicable Issuer. 
 (b) Making of Revolving Credit Loans Ratably. Revolving Credit Loans shall be made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. 

(c) Revolving Loans to be Made in Euro. If any Revolving Credit Loan would, but for the provisions of this Section 2.03(c),
be capable of being made in either the Euro or in a National Currency Unit, such Revolving Credit Loan shall be made in the Euro. 
 SECTION 2.04. Fees; Reduction of the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts. (a) Commitment Fee. The Parent shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a fee (the
“Commitment Fee”) for each day from and including the Closing Date and to but not including the date that such Lender’s Commitment is terminated. Such fee shall be payable on the unused amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Committed Amount on such day and shall accrue at the applicable rate per annum for such day set forth on Schedule I under the caption “Commitment Fee”. Commitment Fees shall be due and payable for the preceding period for which such fees
have not been paid on each Regular Payment Date and on the date on which the Commitments terminate. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Parent agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a
participation fee with respect to its participations in each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Market Rate Spread applicable to such Letter of Credit on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) in respect of such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuer a fronting fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum separately agreed between the Parent and such Issuer (or such
Issuer’s Affiliate, if applicable) on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure associated with Letters of Credit issued by such Issuer (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period
from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuer’s standard fees with respect to the issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees (together, “Letter of Credit Fees”) shall be payable in arrears on each Regular Payment Date, the date on
which the Commitments terminate and thereafter on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuer pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. 

  
 22 









 (c) Optional Reduction of the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts. The Parent may at
any time or from time to time reduce Pro Rata the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts of the Lenders to an aggregate amount (which may be zero) not less than the sum of the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amounts of the Revolving Credit Exposures and
Competitive Bid Loans then outstanding plus the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of all Revolving Credit Loans, Letters of Credit and Competitive Bid Loans not yet made as to which notice has been given by the Parent under Section 2.03,
2.10(b) or 3.02 hereof, as the case may be. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts shall be in an aggregate amount which is an integral multiple of $20,000,000 or the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Reduction of the Revolving
Credit Committed Amounts shall be made by providing not less than five Business Days’ notice to such effect to the Administrative Agent. Such notice of reduction shall be irrevocable; provided that such a notice delivered by the Parent
may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition
is not satisfied. After the date specified in such notice which is not so revoked the Commitment Fee shall be calculated upon the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts as so reduced. The Administrative Agent will promptly send copies of such notice to
the Lenders. 
 SECTION 2.05. Interest Rates. (a) Optional Bases of Borrowing. The unpaid principal amount of
the Revolving Credit Loans shall bear interest for each day from and including the date on which funds are made available to the Relevant Borrower by the Administrative Agent and to but excluding the date of repayment on one or more bases selected
by the Parent from among the interest rate Options set forth below; provided, however, that the Base Rate Option may not be selected to apply to Revolving Credit Loans which are denominated in a currency other than Dollars. Subject to the provisions
of this Agreement the Parent may select different Options to apply simultaneously to different Portions of the Revolving Credit Loans and may select different Funding Segments to apply simultaneously to different parts of the Euro-Rate Portion of
the Revolving Credit Loans. The aggregate number of Funding Segments applicable to the Euro-Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans at any time shall not exceed six unless otherwise permitted by the Administrative Agent. 

 

	 	(i)	Base Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) for each day equal to (x) the Base Rate for such
day plus (y) the Applicable Margin for such day. 

  

	 	(ii)	 Euro-Rate Option: A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed or, in the case of Loans denominated in
U.K. pounds sterling, computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) for each day equal to (x) the rate per annum determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent in accordance with its usual procedures (which
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) by dividing (the resulting quotient to be rounded upward to the nearest
 1/100 of 1%) (1) the Euro-Rate for such day by
(2) a number equal to 1.00 minus the Euro-Rate Reserve Percentage, if any, for such day plus (y) the Applicable Margin for such day. 



  
 23 









 The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Parent and to the Lenders of the Euro-Rate so
determined. 
 (b) Funding Periods. At any time when the Parent shall select, convert to or renew the Euro-Rate Option to
apply to any part of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Parent shall specify one or more periods (the “Funding Periods”) during which each such Option shall apply, such Funding Periods being one, two, three or six months; provided,
that (i) each Euro-Rate Funding Period shall begin on a Business Day, and the term “month”, when used in connection with a Euro-Rate Funding Period, shall be construed in accordance with prevailing practices in the interbank
eurocurrency market at the commencement of such Euro-Rate Funding Period, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent (which determination shall be conclusive); and (ii) the Parent may not select a Funding Period that would end
after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. 
 (c) Transactional Amounts. Every selection of, conversion from, conversion
to or renewal of an interest rate Option and every payment or prepayment of any Revolving Credit Loans shall be either 
  

	 	(i)	in a principal amount such that after giving effect thereto the aggregate principal amount of the Base Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans, or the aggregate
principal amount of each Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans, shall be (A) in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars, $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (B) in
the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars, an amount the Dollar Equivalent Amount of which is greater than $5,000,000 and which is an integral multiple of the amount determined by the Administrative Agent from
time to time to be the basic unit in which such currency is funded in the eurocurrency market; or 

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of a prepayment by any Borrower, if the principal amount of the Base Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans or the aggregate principal amount of a
Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans is a Dollar Equivalent Amount of less than $5,000,000, in a principal amount equal to such principal amount. 


(d) Euro-Rate or Market Rate Spread Unascertainable; Impracticability. 

 

	 	(i)	If (A) on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be set the Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that: 

  

	 	(1)	adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate, or 


  
 24 










	 	(2)	a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the interbank eurocurrency market for the relevant currency, or 


 

	 	(3)	the effective cost to the Required Lenders of funding a proposed Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion shall exceed the Euro-Rate applicable to such Funding Segment,
or 

  

	 	(B)	at any time any Lender shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the making, maintenance or funding of
any part of the Euro-Rate Portion has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Lender or a Notional Funding Office in good faith with any Law or guideline or interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority
charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or with any request or directive of any such Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law); then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, may notify the Parent of such determination (and any Lender giving such notice shall notify the Administrative Agent). Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the
obligation of each of the Lenders to allow the Parent to select, convert to or renew the Euro-Rate Option with respect to the relevant currency or currencies shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall
have later notified the Parent (and any Lender giving such notice shall notify the Administrative Agent) of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s determination in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error) that the circumstance giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist. 

  

	 	(ii)	 If any Lender notifies the Parent of a determination under subsection (B) of Section 2.05(d)(i), the Euro-Rate Portion of the Loans of such
Lender (the “Affected Lender”) shall, subject to Section 4.08(c) hereof, (i) be automatically converted to the Base Rate Option, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars, or (ii) be repaid by the Relevant
Borrower, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars, on the last day of the then current Funding Period with respect to such Loans (in the case of a determination that the making, maintenance or funding of
any Euro-Rate Portion of such 



  
 25 










	 	 
Loans is impracticable) and the last day on which the making, maintenance or funding of any Euro-Rate Portion of such Loans is not unlawful (in the case of a determination that the making,
maintenance or funding of any Euro-Rate Portion of such Loans is unlawful) and accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable on such date. 


  

	 	(iii)	If at the time the Administrative Agent or a Lender makes a determination under subsection (A) or (B) of Section 2.05(d)(i) the Parent previously has
notified the Administrative Agent that it wishes to select, convert to or renew the Euro-Rate Option with respect to any proposed Revolving Credit Loans but such Loans have not yet been made, (A) such notification shall be deemed to provide for
selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option instead of the Euro-Rate Option with respect to any such Loans denominated in Dollars or, in the case of a determination by a Lender, any such Loans denominated in Dollars of such Lender
or (B) subject to Section 4.08(c), such notification shall be deemed to be revoked in the case of a selection of the Euro-Rate Option or shall be deemed to be a notice of prepayment in the case of a conversion or renewal, with respect to
any such Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars or, in the case of a determination by a Lender, any such Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars of such Lender. 


 

	 	(iv)	An Affected Lender shall take actions of the type referred to in Section 4.10, if such actions would avoid the application of clause (B) of
Section 2.05(d)(i) and would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be disadvantageous in any way to such Lender or its Affiliates at such time or in the future. 


 

	 	(v)	If on any date on which a Market Rate Spread would be set the Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive absent
manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Market Rate Spread, then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent and the Lenders of such determination and, until the
Administrative Agent determines that the Market Rate Spread can be ascertained, the applicable Market Rate Spread to be so set shall be the applicable maximum Market Rate Spread set forth on Schedule I. 


SECTION 2.06. Conversion or Renewal of Interest Rate Options. (a) Conversion or Renewal. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.07 hereof, the Parent may convert any part of the Revolving Credit Loans denominated in any Designated Currency from any interest rate Option or Options to one or more different interest rate Options available for such Designated
Currency and may renew the Euro-Rate Option as to any Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion: 
  

	 	(i)	at any time with respect to conversion from the Base Rate Option; or 


  
 26 










	 	(ii)	at the expiration of any Funding Period with respect to conversions from or renewals of the Euro-Rate Option as to the Funding Segment corresponding to such expiring
Funding Period; 

 provided, that at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or exists,
(x) the Borrower may not select, convert to or renew the Euro-Rate Option with respect to any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars, (y) the Borrower may not convert any Revolving Credit Loans to any Designated Currency other than
Dollars, and (z) the Borrower may not select a Funding Period longer than one month with respect to Revolving Credit Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars. 
 Whenever the Parent desires to convert or renew any interest rate Option or Options, the Parent shall provide to the Administrative Agent Standard Notice setting forth the following information:

  

	 	(i)	the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed conversion or renewal is to be made; 


 

	 	(ii)	the principal amounts selected in accordance with Section 2.05(c) hereof of the Base Rate Portion and each Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion to be converted
from or renewed; 

  

	 	(iii)	the interest rate Option or Options selected in accordance with Section 2.05(a) hereof and the principal amounts selected in accordance with Section 2.05(c)
hereof of the Base Rate Portion and each Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion to be converted to; and 

  

	 	(iv)	with respect to each Funding Segment to be converted to or renewed, the Funding Period selected in accordance with Section 2.05(b) hereof to apply to such Funding
Segment. 

 Standard Notice having been so provided, after the date specified in such Standard Notice, interest shall be
calculated upon the principal amount of the Loans as so converted or renewed. 
 (b) Failure to Convert or Renew. Absent
due notice from the Parent of conversion or renewal in the circumstances described in Section 2.06(a)(ii) hereof, any part of the Euro-Rate Portion for which such notice is not received (i) shall be converted automatically to the Base Rate
Option, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars or (ii) the Euro-Rate Option shall be automatically renewed for a Funding Period of one month, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in a currency other than
Dollars, on the last day of the expiring Funding Period. 

  
 27 









 SECTION 2.07. Optional Prepayments. The Relevant Borrower shall have the right at its
option at any time and from time to time to prepay its Revolving Credit Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (subject, however, to Sections 2.05(c), 4.04 and 4.08(c) hereof). 

SECTION 2.08. Interest Payment Dates. Interest on the Base Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be due and payable on
the date of any conversion of all or part of the Base Rate Portion to a different interest rate Option on the amount converted, any prepayment of any part of the Base Rate Portion on the amount prepaid, and on each Regular Payment Date. Interest on
each Funding Segment of the Euro-Rate Portion of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be due and payable on the last day of the corresponding Euro-Rate Funding Period and, if such Euro-Rate Funding Period is longer than three months, also on the last
day of every third month during such Funding Period. After maturity of any part of the Loans (by acceleration or otherwise), interest on such part of the Loans shall be due and payable on demand. 

SECTION 2.09. Increase in Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The Parent may, at its option, on one or more occasions, seek to
increase the Total Revolving Credit Commitment by up to $500,000,000 in the aggregate for all such occasions (i.e., the maximum Total Revolving Credit Commitment is $2,500,000,000) upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the
Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such requested increase and shall state that, and be delivered at a time when, no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or exists. The Parent
may, after giving such notice, offer the increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment to any of the existing Lenders approved by the Issuers and/or to other banks, financial institutions or other entities reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent and the Issuers on a non pro-rata basis in such amounts as determined by the Parent and reasonably agreed to by the Administrative Agent. The Parent may elect to accept on any such occasion an increase in the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment in an amount up to the aggregate increased commitments offered to the Parent. No increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective until the existing or new Lender extending such incremental commitment amount
and the Parent shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent an agreement in writing in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto pursuant to which such Lender states its Revolving Credit Committed Amount and agrees to assume and accept
the obligations and rights of a Lender hereunder. No Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment hereunder. The Lenders (new or existing) shall accept an assignment from the existing Lenders, and the existing Lenders shall make an
assignment to the new or existing Lender accepting a new or increased Revolving Credit Committed Amount, of an interest in all then outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and a participation interest in all then outstanding Letters of Credit and
LC Disbursements such that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Credit Exposure is held ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolving Credit Committed Amounts. Assignments pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be
made in exchange for the principal amount assigned plus accrued and unpaid interest and Commitment Fees. The Parent shall make any payments under Section 4.08(c) resulting from such assignments. Any such increase in the Total Revolving Credit
Commitment shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $5,000,000 and shall be subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Parent of such supplemental opinions, resolutions, certificates and other
documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. 

  
 28 









 SECTION 2.10. Letters of Credit. (a) Issuance. Each Issuer hereby agrees,
on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify Letters of Credit (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to
time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to the Letter of Credit Maturity Date upon the request of the Parent and for the account of any Borrower; provided that a Letter of Credit shall be issued or Modified only if (and
upon each issuance or Modification the Relevant Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that) after giving effect to such issuance or Modification (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $1,000,000,000, (ii) the Revolving
Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment (either as in effect on the date of such issuance or Modification or, if the Revolving Credit Maturity Date has been extended pursuant to Section 4.01 and the expiration of
such Letter of Credit (as Modified, if applicable) would occur after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date without giving effect to such extension, as the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is scheduled to be in effect immediately following the expiry
of the Commitment of any Lender which is a Nonextending Lender relative to such extension) and (iii) the Issuer Exposure of the applicable Issuer shall not exceed its Issuer Commitment. Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in a Designated
Currency and shall be in a form satisfactory to the Issuer. No Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (such day, “the Letter of Credit Maturity Date”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or other regulatory body with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall purport by its
terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law or governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority or other regulatory body
with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the issuance of such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to any Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or
capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated) or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable, in effect and known to such Issuer as of the date of this Agreement and which such Issuer in good faith
deems material to it. 
 (b) Notice of Issuance or Modification; Certain Conditions. The Parent shall give the Issuer and
the Administrative Agent notice prior to 10:00 a.m., New York time, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period agreed to by the Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Letter of Credit, specifying the
beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification), the expiry date of such Letter of Credit, the amount and currency of such Letter of Credit and such other information as the Issuer may reasonably request to facilitate the requested
issuance or Modification. Such notice shall be by hand delivery, facsimile or, if arrangements for doing so have been agreed upon by the Parent, the Issuer and the Administrative Agent, by electronic communication. Upon request of a Lender, the
Administrative Agent agrees to provide the information contained in such notice to such Lender. If requested by the Issuer, the Relevant Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuer’s standard form in connection with
any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and 

  
 29 









 
conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Relevant Borrower to, or entered into by the Relevant Borrower with, the Issuer relating to any Letter
of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter
of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuer or the Lenders, the Issuer hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuer, a
participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely
and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuer, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuer and not reimbursed by the Relevant Borrower on the date due as
provided in paragraph (d) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Relevant Borrower for any reason. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this
paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of an Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(d) Reimbursement. If the Issuer shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Relevant Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent at its Office an amount in the applicable Designated Currency equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time, on the date that
such LC Disbursement is made, if the Parent or Relevant Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Parent or Relevant
Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time, on (i) the Business Day that the Parent or Relevant Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m.,
New York time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Parent or Relevant Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt;
provided that if the amount to be reimbursed is denominated in Dollars, the Parent or Relevant Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed
with Base Rate Option Revolving Credit Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Relevant Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Loans. If the
Relevant Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Relevant Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage thereof. Promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) following receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Relevant Borrower in the same
manner as provided in Section 2.03(a) with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuer the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Any amount due from a Lender
pursuant to the preceding sentence but not timely paid shall accrue interest for the account of the Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds 

  
 30 









 
Effective Rate for the first three days and thereafter at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to the Base Rate Portion. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any
payment from the Relevant Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuer or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuer, then to such
Lenders and the Issuer as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuer for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Revolving Credit Loans as contemplated above) shall not
constitute a Revolving Credit Loan and shall not relieve the Relevant Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The Relevant Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (d) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or
any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment
by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Relevant Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor
the Issuer, nor any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or
failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication
under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuer; provided that the
foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuer from liability to the Relevant Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Relevant Borrower to the
extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Relevant Borrower that are caused by the Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (including willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of documents strictly complying with the
terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit and payment in bad faith of a drawing under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of documents not substantially or reasonably complying with the terms and conditions of the
Letter of Credit) on the part of the Issuer (as determined by a non appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without
limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, either accept and
make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with
the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

  
 31 









 (f) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuer shall, promptly following its receipt
thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Parent or Relevant Borrower by telephone (confirmed by electronic or facsimile
transmission) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuer has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Relevant Borrower of its
obligation to reimburse the Issuer and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (g) Interim
Interest. If the Issuer shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for
each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Relevant Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum set forth in Section 4.05(b) (except that interest on
amounts timely paid pursuant to Section 2.10(d) shall bear interest at such rate minus two percent (2%) per annum). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuer, except that interest accrued on and
after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuer shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(h) Replacement of the Issuer. Any Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent, the Administrative
Agent and the successor Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the
replaced Issuer pursuant to Section 2.04(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit
to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuer, or to such successor and all previous Issuers, as the context shall require. After the
replacement of an Issuer hereunder, the replaced Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement,
but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default
which requires cash collateralization as specified in Section 9.02 shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Parent receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral
pursuant to this paragraph, the Parent shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders and Issuers, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date
plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any
kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Parent or Relevant Borrower described in clause (i) or (j) of 

  
 32 









 
Section 9.01. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. Subject to the express provisions of this
Section 2.10(i), the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be
made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Parent’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest; provided, however, that any deposits so invested shall be invested only in
certificates of deposit of the Administrative Agent, direct obligations of, or obligations unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America, money market funds rated AAA by S&P or similar investments, in each case having a
maturity of no more than thirty (30) days. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuer for LC Disbursements
for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held first for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Parent and Relevant Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the
Loans has been accelerated, shall be held for application to other Obligations held ratably (relative to Commitment Percentage) by the Lenders and thereafter, if the LC Exposure is zero, shall be applied to satisfy other Obligations. If the
Parent has provided an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Parent within three Business Days after all Events of
Default have been cured or waived. 
 ARTICLE III 
 The Competitive Bid Loans 
 SECTION 3.01. Competitive Bid Loans. In
addition to Revolving Credit Loans, the Parent may, as set forth in this Article III request the Lenders to make offers to make one or more Competitive Bid Loans to the Parent or to an Other Borrower. Each Lender may, but shall have no
obligation to, make one or more such offers and, subject to the terms and provisions hereof, the Parent may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Article III; provided, that no
Competitive Bid Loan shall be made or requested if the making of such Loan would cause the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of all Loans and LC Exposure outstanding hereunder to exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Competitive Bid
Loans may be Absolute Rate Loans or LIBOR-based Loans (each a “type” of Competitive Bid Loan) and, subject to Section 4.07 hereof, may be in any Designated Currency. Competitive Bid Loans shall be due and payable on the earlier of the
Competitive Bid Expiration Date and the applicable Competitive Bid Loan Maturity Date. 
 SECTION 3.02. Competitive Bid Loan
Procedures. (a) Competitive Bid Loan Quote Requests. When the Parent wishes to request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans under this Article III, it shall transmit to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission, at its
Office, a notice (a “Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request”) so as to be received no later than 11:00 a.m. New York time on (x) the fourth Business Day prior to the date of borrowing proposed therein, in the case of a LIBOR
Auction or (y) the Business Day next preceding the date of borrowing proposed therein, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in any case, such other time as the Parent and Administrative Agent may agree). The Parent may request offers to
make Competitive Bid Loans for different Interest Periods in a single notice; provided, 

  
 33 









 
the request for each separate Interest Period shall be deemed to be a separate Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request for a separate Competitive Bid Loan (all Competitive Bid Loans proposed to be
made at one time herein collectively referred to as a “Competitive Bid Borrowing”). Each such notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto and in any case shall specify as to each Competitive Bid Borrowing: 

 

	 	(i)	the identity of the Relevant Borrower for such Competitive Bid Borrowing; 

  


	 	(ii)	the proposed date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 


 

	 	(iii)	the currency or currencies in which such Competitive Bid Borrowing is to be made; 


 

	 	(iv)	the aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing which shall be a Dollar Equivalent Amount of at least $5,000,000 (or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000)
(but only to the extent practical in the case of Competitive Bid Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars), but shall not cause the limits specified in Section 3.01 hereof to be violated; 


 

	 	(v)	the duration of the initial Interest Period or Periods applicable thereto, subject to the provisions of the definition of “Interest Period” (including without
limitation that no such Interest Period shall end after the Competitive Bid Expiration Date); and 

  

	 	(vi)	whether the Competitive Bid Loan Quotes requested are to set forth a LIBOR-based Margin or an Absolute Rate. 


No Competitive Bid Loan Request shall be given if such request could result in more than six Competitive Bid Loans being outstanding at any one time
unless otherwise permitted by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Invitation for Competitive Bid Loan Quotes. Promptly after
receipt of a Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request, the Administrative Agent shall transmit to the Lenders by facsimile transmission notice of such Competitive Bid Loan Request, which notice shall constitute an invitation by the Parent to each Lender
to submit Competitive Bid Loan Quotes offering to make Competitive Bid Loans in accordance with such Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request. 
 (c) Submission and Contents of Competitive Bid Loan Quotes. 
  

	 	(i)	 Each Lender may submit one or more Competitive Bid Loan Quotes, each containing an offer to make a Competitive Bid Loan in response to any Competitive
Bid Loan Quote Request; provided, if the Parent’s request under Section 3.02(a) hereof specifies more than one Interest Period, such Lender may make a single




  
 34 










	 	 
submission containing one or more Competitive Bid Loan Quotes for each such Interest Period. Each Competitive Bid Loan Quote must comply with the requirements of this Section 3.02(c) and
must be submitted to the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission at its Office not later than (x) 10:00 a.m. New York time on the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR Auction or
(y) 10:00 a.m. New York time on the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction (or, in either case upon reasonable notice to the Lenders, such other time and date as the Parent and the Administrative Agent may
agree in writing); provided that any Competitive Bid Loan Quote submitted by the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent) in the capacity of a Lender may be submitted, and may only be submitted, if the Administrative
Agent (or such Affiliate) notifies the Parent of the terms of the offer or offers contained therein not later than (x) 9:30 a.m. New York time on the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of a LIBOR
Auction or (y) 9:30 a.m. New York time on the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction. Subject to Sections 4.07 and 6.01 hereof, any Competitive Bid Loan Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the
written consent of the Administrative Agent given on the written instructions of the Parent. 


  

	 	(ii)	Each Competitive Bid Loan Quote shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto and shall in any case specify: 


 

	 	(A)	the proposed date of borrowing, the proposed currency and the Interest Period therefor; 


 

	 	(B)	the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which each such offer is being made, which principal amount shall be a Dollar Equivalent Amount of at least
$5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 (but only to the extent practical in the case of Competitive Bid Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars); provided, the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Loans
for which a Lender submits Competitive Bid Loan Quotes (x) may be greater than, less than or equal to the Revolving Credit Committed Amount of such Lender but (y) may not exceed the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing for
which offers were requested in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request; 

  

	 	(C)	 in the case of a LIBOR Auction, the margin above (or, if a negative margin is offered, below) the applicable LIBO-Rate (the “LIBOR-based
Margin”) offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan, expressed as a percentage (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest
 1/10,000th of 1%) to be added to the applicable
LIBO-Rate; 



  
 35 










	 	(D)	 in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, the rate of interest per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year (rounded upwards, if necessary, to
the nearest  1/10,000th of 1%) (the “Absolute
Rate”) offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan; and 


  

	 	(E)	the identity of the quoting Lender. 

  

	 	(iii)	No Competitive Bid Loan Quote shall contain qualifying, conditional or similar language or propose terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable
Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request and, in particular, no Competitive Bid Loan Quote may be conditioned upon acceptance by the Parent of all (or some specified minimum) of the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which such Competitive
Bid Loan Quote is being made, and the Administrative Agent shall disregard any Competitive Bid Loan Quote that contains such language or terms or conditions or that arrives at the Administrative Agent’s Office after the time set forth for
submission of Competitive Bid Loan Quotes in Section 3.02(c)(i) hereof. 

 (d) Notice to the Parent.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly after 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the last day on which Competitive Bid Loan Quote may be submitted pursuant to Section 3.02(c), notify the Parent by facsimile transmission of the terms
(i) of any Competitive Bid Loan Quote submitted by a Lender that is in accordance with Section 3.02(c) hereof and (ii) of any Competitive Bid Loan Quote that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Competitive
Bid Loan Quote submitted by such Lender with respect to the same Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request. Any such subsequent Competitive Bid Loan Quote shall be disregarded by the Administrative Agent unless such subsequent Competitive Bid Loan Quote is
submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Competitive Bid Loan Quote. The Administrative Agent’s notice to the Parent shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Loan for which Competitive Bid
Loan Quotes have been received for each Interest Period specified in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request, and (B) the respective principal amounts and LIBOR-based Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, so offered by each
Lender, identifying the Lender that made each Competitive Bid Loan Quote. 
 (e) Acceptance and Notice by the Parent. Not
later than one hour after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of Competitive Bid Loan Quotes pursuant to Section 3.02(d) (or, in either case upon reasonable prior notice to the Lenders, such other time and date as the Parent and the
Administrative Agent may agree), the Parent shall notify the Administrative Agent by facsimile transmission at its Office of its acceptance or nonacceptance of the Competitive Bid Loan Quotes so notified to it pursuant to Section 3.02(d) hereof
(and the failure of the Parent to give such notice by such time shall constitute nonacceptance) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender in accordance with 

  
 36 









 
Section 3.02(g) hereof. In the case of acceptance, such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Bid Loan Quotes for each Interest Period that are accepted. The
Parent may accept one or more Competitive Bid Loan Quotes in whole or in part (provided that any Competitive Bid Loan Quote accepted in part shall be a Dollar Equivalent Amount of at least $5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000 (but
only to the extent practical in the case of Competitive Bid Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars)); provided that: 
  

	 	(i)	the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request;


  

	 	(ii)	the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be a Dollar Equivalent Amount of at least $5,000,000 (or a higher integral multiple of
$1,000,000) (but only to the extent practical in the case of Competitive Bid Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars); 

  

	 	(iii)	acceptance of offers may be made only in ascending yield order of LIBOR-based Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be; and 


 

	 	(iv)	the Parent shall not accept any offer where the Administrative Agent has advised the Parent that such offer fails to comply with Section 3.02(c)(ii) hereof or
otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement. 

 (f) Allocation by the Administrative
Agent. If Competitive Bid Loan Quotes are made by two or more Lenders with the same LIBOR-based Margins or Absolute Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which Competitive Bid Loan
Quotes are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such Competitive Bid Loan Quotes are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Lenders as nearly as
possible (in such multiples, not less than $500,000, as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such offers. If two or more such Competitive Bid Loan Quotes cannot be allocated evenly within
the limits set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall have discretion to allocate a larger share of such Competitive Bid Loans to one or more of the successful Lenders and in making such allocation shall use
reasonable efforts to take into account previous allocations of unequal shares to one or more of such Lenders in connection with other Competitive Bid Loans. Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans to be
allocated to each such Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (g) Notice to Lenders. On the date the Parent
notifies the Administrative Agent of its acceptance of one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to Section 3.02(e) hereof, the Administrative Agent shall (x) not later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on such date,
in the case of a LIBOR Auction or (y) as promptly as practicable on such date (but in no event later than 3:00 p.m. New York time), in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction notify each Lender which has made an offer (i) of the
aggregate amount of each Competitive Bid 

  
 37 









 
Borrowing with respect to which the Parent accepted one or more Competitive Bid Loan Quotes and such Lender’s share of such Competitive Bid Borrowing or (ii) that the Parent accepted no
offers, such notice to be by facsimile transmission. 
 (h) Funding of Competitive Bid Loans. Any Lender whose offer to
make any Competitive Bid Loan has been accepted shall on the date specified in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, no later
than 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time, in the case of a LIBOR Auction, and 3:00 p.m. New York City time, in the case of an Absolute Rate Auction, in funds immediately available at such Office. The Administrative Agent will make the funds
so received available to the Relevant Borrower in funds immediately available. 
 SECTION 3.03. Competitive Bid Loan Maturity
Dates. The principal amount of each Competitive Bid Loan shall be due and payable on the last day of the applicable Interest Period specified in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote Request (the “Competitive Bid Loan Maturity Date”)
and no prepayments of Competitive Bid Loans shall be permitted. 
 SECTION 3.04. Interest Rates for Competitive Bid
Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Competitive Bid Loan shall bear interest for each day until due at the following rate or rates per annum: 
  

	 	(i)	for each LIBOR-based Loan, a rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed or, in the case of Loans denominated in U.K. pounds
sterling computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) equal to the LIBOR Rate applicable to the Interest Period therefor plus the LIBOR-based Margin quoted by the Lender making such Loan in the related Competitive Bid Loan
Quote submitted in accordance with Section 3.02(c) hereof; and 

  

	 	(ii)	for each Absolute Rate Loan, a rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the Absolute Rate quoted by the Lender
making such Loan in the related Competitive Bid Loan Quote submitted in accordance with Section 3.02(c) hereof. 

 SECTION 3.05. Competitive Bid Loan Interest Payment Dates. Interest on each Competitive Bid Loan shall be due and payable on the Competitive Bid Loan Maturity Date thereof, and if any Interest
Period is longer than three months, also on each third month of such Interest Period. After maturity of any Competitive Bid Loan (by acceleration or otherwise), interest on such Competitive Bid Loan shall be due and payable on demand. 

SECTION 3.06. Competitive Bid Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of Lenders that have made Competitive Bid Loans and the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loans owing to each Lender from time to time together with the Competitive Bid Loan Maturity Dates and interest rates applicable to each such
Competitive Bid Loan, and other terms applicable thereto (the 

  
 38 









 
“Competitive Bid Register”). The Competitive Bid Register shall be available for inspection by the Parent or any Lender, as to its bid only, at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 Provisions Applicable to Loans 
 SECTION 4.01. Extension of Revolving
Credit Maturity Date and Competitive Bid Expiration Date. The Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the Competitive Bid Expiration Date may be extended at any time for any period at the request of the Parent with the express consent of the Lenders
as provided below. 
 (a) Request for Extension. The Parent may, in a written notice to the Administrative Agent, request
(an “Extension Request”) that the Revolving Credit Maturity Date be extended for a period of 364 days. The Parent may only submit a total of two Extension Requests to the Administrative Agent, one of which may be made only during the
period prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the other may be made only during the period after the first anniversary and prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly inform the
Lenders of such Extension Request. Each Lender that agrees with such Extension Request shall deliver to the Administrative Agent its express written consent thereto no later than 30 days after the date of such Extension Request. Each Lender shall
have the right to withhold such consent in its sole discretion. 
 (b) Replacement Lenders. If the Requisite Extending
Lenders have expressly consented in writing to any such Extension Request as provided in Section 4.01(a), then the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Parent and the Parent, at its option, may replace any Lender which has not agreed to
such Extension Request (a “Nonextending Lender”) with another commercial lending institution (which may be a Lender) which agrees to such extension and is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuers (a
“Replacement Lender”) by giving (not later than 90 days after the date of the Extension Request) notice of the name of such Replacement Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Issuers. Unless the Administrative Agent or an Issuer shall
object to the identity of such proposed Replacement Lender prior to the date 100 days after the date of the Extension Request, upon notice from the Administrative Agent, each Nonextending Lender shall, upon indefeasible payment in full to it of all
amounts owed to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including all amounts owed under Section 4.08(c) hereof, assign all of its interests hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to such Replacement Lender and such Replacement
Lender shall assume all of such Nonextending Lender’s obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.14(c) hereof. 

(c) Extension. If the Requisite Extending Lenders shall have consented to any such Extension Request, then as of 5:00 p.m.
New York time on the date which is 30 days after the date of such Extension Request the Revolving Credit Maturity Date shall be deemed to have been extended until, and shall be, the date specified in the Extension Request, and if the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date is so extended, the Competitive Bid Expiration Date and the Letter of Credit Maturity Date (as such dates may have been previously extended pursuant to this 

  
 39 









 
Section) shall be deemed to have been extended for the same period. Under all other circumstances neither the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Competitive Bid Expiration Date nor the Letter of
Credit Maturity Date shall be extended. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall any such extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date be effective as to any Nonextending Lender. To the extent that any Nonextending
Lender has not theretofor been replaced as described above, then on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date which is applicable to such Nonextending Lender (i.e., the Revolving Credit Maturity Date determined without giving effect to any extension
thereof to which such Nonextending Lender has not consented), (i) the Parent (or, as applicable, Other Borrowers) shall make indefeasible payment in full to such Nonextending Lender of all amounts owed to it hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, including all amounts owed under Section 4.08(c) hereof, (ii) if the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are then satisfied, the participation of such Nonextending Lender in all Letters of Credit shall terminate and each
extending Lender shall be deemed to have acquired its pro rata (relative to Commitment Percentage) share of such participation and shall thereafter be liable to the Issuer in respect thereof and (iii) if the conditions set forth in
Section 6.02 are not then satisfied, the Parent shall deposit with the Administrative Agent for the account of the Nonextending Lender cash in the amount of such Nonextending Lender’s LC Exposure, which shall be held on the terms of
Section 2.10(i); provided that (A) amounts so deposited and interest thereon shall be applied exclusively to amounts for which such Nonextending Lender is or becomes liable to an Issuer pursuant to Section 2.10(d) and
(B) at such time as the LC Exposure of the Nonextending Lender is zero, all such amounts shall be refunded to the Parent. 
 SECTION 4.02. Calculation of Dollar Equivalent Amounts. (a) Calculation Upon Making and Repayment of Loans. Upon each issuance of a Letter of Credit, Modification of a Letter of Credit
which changes the undrawn face amount thereof and each making and repayment of a Revolving Credit Loan or a Competitive Bid Loan, in each case denominated in a currency other than Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar
Equivalent Amount of the applicable LC Exposure or Loan. 
 (b) Recalculation of Dollar Equivalent Amounts. In
determining the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of all LC Exposure and Loans outstanding and proposed to be outstanding, the Administrative Agent may use the respective Dollar Equivalent Amounts for LC Exposure and Loans calculated by
it pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section, unless such aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount so calculated exceeds 90% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, in which case the Administrative Agent shall recalculate the Dollar Equivalent
Amount of the LC Exposure and each Loan outstanding no less frequently than once each week. The Administrative Agent may recalculate the Dollar Equivalent Amounts of the LC Exposure and each outstanding Loan as frequently as it determines
to do so in its discretion, provided, that such recalculation shall be made for the LC Exposure and all Loans no less frequently than once each week during any period when the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of the LC Exposure
and Loans outstanding exceeds 90% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The Administrative Agent shall recalculate the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the LC Exposure and each outstanding Revolving Credit Loan and Competitive Bid Loan at the
Parent’s request made not earlier than one month after the Parent’s most recent such request. 
 SECTION 4.03.
Mandatory Prepayments. In the event that for any reason other than fluctuations in currency exchange rates the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of 

  
 40 









 
the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure exceeds at any time 100% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment as then in effect, the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Loans (subject to
Section 4.08(c) hereof) and/or cash collateralize Letters of Credit (in the manner set forth in Section 2.10(i)) as selected by the Parent in an amount necessary to reduce the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of the outstanding Loans and
Letters of Credit which are not cash-collateralized to an amount which does not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. If the Parent elects to prepay, or cause the prepayment of, Revolving Credit Loans in order to comply with the requirements
of this Section 4.03, such prepayment shall be made to the Lenders Pro Rata. 
 In the event that for any reason (including
fluctuations in currency exchange rates) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure at any time exceeds 105% of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment as then in effect, the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding
Loans (subject to Section 4.08(c) hereof) and/or cash collateralize Letters of Credit (in the manner set forth in Section 2.10(i)) as selected by the Parent in an amount necessary to reduce the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Amount of the
outstanding Loans and Letters of Credit which are not cash-collateralized to an amount which does not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. If the Parent elects to prepay, or cause the prepayment of, Revolving Credit Loans in order to comply
with the requirements of this Section 4.03, such prepayment shall be made to the Lenders Pro Rata. 
 SECTION 4.04.
Prepayment Procedures. Whenever any Borrower desires or is required to prepay any part of its Loans, the Parent shall provide not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent at its Office setting forth
the following information: 
  

	 	(a)	the identity of the Relevant Borrower; 

  

	 	(b)	the type of Loans to be prepaid and the identity of the portions of such Loans to be prepaid; and 


 

	 	(c)	the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made. 


SECTION 4.05. Payments Generally; Interest on Overdue Amounts. (a) Payments Generally. All payments and prepayments to
be made by the Parent or any Other Borrower in respect of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements, indemnity, expenses or other amounts due from the Parent or any Other Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document in
Dollars shall be payable by 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time, on the day when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind (other than notice of acceleration as required by Section 9.02 hereof), all of which are
hereby expressly waived, without set-off, counterclaim, withholding or other deduction of any kind or nature, except for payments to a Lender subject to a withholding deduction under Section 4.09 hereof. Except for payments to be made directly
to an Issuer as expressly provided herein and payments under Sections 4.08, 4.09 and 12.06 hereof, such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its Office in Dollars in funds immediately available at such Office, and payments
under Sections 4.08, 4.09 and 12.06 hereof shall be made to the applicable Lender at such domestic account as it shall specify to the Parent from time to time in funds immediately available at such account. 

  
 41 









 All payments and prepayments to be made by the Parent or any Other Borrower in respect of
principal, interest, reimbursement of LC Disbursements or other amounts due from any Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document in a currency other than Dollars shall be made by payment in that currency in freely transferable funds by 12:00
Noon, New York time, for value on the applicable payment date and such payment shall be due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind (other than notice of acceleration as required by Section 9.02 hereof), all of which are
hereby expressly waived, without set-off, counterclaim, withholding or other deduction of any kind or nature, except for payments to a Lender subject to a withholding deduction under Section 4.09 hereof. Except for payments to be made directly
to an Issuer as expressly provided herein and payments under Sections 4.08, 4.09 and 12.06 hereof, such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office. Any payment or prepayment received by the
Administrative Agent after 12:00 o’clock Noon, New York time on any day shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. 
 All payments hereunder of (i) principal or interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, (ii) reimbursement obligations (and interest in
respect of reimbursement obligations) shall be made in the currency in which the Letter of Credit in respect of which such reimbursement obligation exists was denominated or (iii) any other amount due hereunder or under another Loan Document
shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Lenders all payments received by it for the account of the Lenders from any Borrower as promptly as practicable after receipt by the Administrative Agent. Except as expressly
contemplated by Section 4.01(c), all payments on account of Revolving Credit Loans shall be distributed to the Lenders Pro Rata. If and to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not forwarded to any Lender such Lender’s share of any
such payment on the same Business Day as such payment is received (or deemed received) from such Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall pay to such Lender interest on such amount at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day until such payment
is made. 
 Upon termination of this Agreement and the expiration or cancellation of all Letters of Credit and payment in full
of all principal, interest, reimbursement amounts, fees, expenses and other amounts due from the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document, each Lender will promptly mark any Notes “cancelled” and forward them to the
Administrative Agent for delivery to the Parent. 
 (b) Interest on Overdue Amounts. To the extent permitted by Law,
after there shall have become due (by acceleration or otherwise) principal, interest, fees, obligations with respect to LC Disbursements, indemnity, expenses or any other amounts due from any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document,
such amounts shall bear interest for each day until paid (before and after judgment), payable on demand, at a rate per annum based on a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed which for each day shall be equal to the following: 

 

	 	(i)	 in the case of any part of the Euro-Rate Portion of any Revolving Credit Loans or of Competitive Bid Loans, (A) until the end of the




  
 42 










	 	 
applicable then-current Funding Period or until regularly scheduled maturity, as the case may be, at a rate per annum 2% above the rate otherwise applicable to such part, and (B) thereafter
in accordance with the following clause (ii); and 


  

	 	(ii)	in the case of any other amount due from any Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document, (A) 2% above the then current Base Rate, in the case of Loans or other
amounts denominated in Dollars or (B) 2% above the rate then borne by overnight deposit in the applicable currency in the eurocurrency market as determined by the Administrative Agent, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, Competitive Bid
Loans or other amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars. 

 SECTION 4.06. Availability of
Currencies. (a) Unavailability. If, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, a Designated Currency ceases to be available and freely tradable in the eurocurrency market then such currency shall cease to be a Designated
Currency hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Parent and the Lenders of any such determination. 

(b) Repayment in Dollars. In the event that (i) pursuant to Section 4.06(a), the Administrative Agent has determined
that a Designated Currency has ceased to be available and freely tradable in the eurocurrency market and (ii) the Administrative Agent has determined in good faith that such Designated Currency is not otherwise available to the Parent or any
Other Borrower, then, on the date any Loans or amounts in respect of a Letter of Credit denominated in such Designated Currency would become due under the terms of this Agreement (other than as a result of an optional prepayment or of the
acceleration of the Loans under Section 9.02), the Relevant Borrower may repay such Loans (or other amounts) by paying to each Lender an amount in Dollars equal to the amount determined in good faith by such Lender (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) to be the amount in Dollars necessary to compensate such Lender for the principal of and accrued interest on such Loans (or other amounts) and any additional cost, expense or loss incurred by such Lender as a result
of such Loans or other amounts being repaid in Dollars (rather than in their denominated currency). 
 SECTION 4.07. Changes
in Law Rendering Certain Loans Unlawful. In the event that any Law or guideline or interpretation or application thereof shall at any time make it unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund its Loans or its Letter of Credit
participations, such Lender shall promptly notify the Parent and the Administrative Agent thereof. Thereupon, the Relevant Borrower shall, subject to Section 4.08(c), if such Lender so requests, on such date as may be required by the relevant
Law, guideline, interpretation or application, prepay such Loans. Each Lender shall take actions of the type referred to in Section 4.10, if such actions would avoid such circumstances and would not in the good faith judgment of such Lender be
disadvantageous in any way to such Lender or its Affiliates at such time or in the future. No Lender shall be obligated to make any extension of credit hereunder in violation of any applicable law. 

  
 43 









 SECTION 4.08. Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances. (a) Increased Costs or
Reduced Return Resulting From Taxes, Reserves, Capital Adequacy Requirements, Expenses, Etc. If any Law or change therein or interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration
thereof or compliance with any request or directive of any Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of Law), in each case adopted or made after the date hereof (or, with respect to any Other Borrower, adopted or made at any time):

  

	 	(i)	subjects any Lender or Issuer or any Notional Funding Office to any tax or changes the basis of taxation with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, the Loans, the
Letters of Credit or payments by any Borrower of principal, interest, Commitment Fees or other amounts due from any Borrower hereunder or under the Notes (except for taxes on the overall net income or overall gross receipts of such Lender, such
Issuer or such Notional Funding Office imposed by the jurisdictions (federal, state and local) in which the Lender’s or Issuer’s principal office or Notional Funding Office is located), 


 

	 	(ii)	imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement or imposes any other condition adversely affecting the cost to a Lender or
Issuer or Notional Funding Office of making, maintaining or funding any Loan or issuing any Letter of Credit or acquiring or maintaining a participation in any Letter of Credit hereunder (other than requirements expressly included herein in the
determination of interest under the Euro-Rate Option), or 

  

	 	(iii)	imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy or similar requirement (A) against assets (funded or contingent) of, or credits or commitments to extend
credit extended by, any Lender, any Issuer or any Notional Funding Office hereunder, or any Person controlling a Lender or an Issuer, or (B) otherwise applicable to the obligations of any Lender, any Issuer or any Notional Funding Office under
this Agreement, or any Person controlling a Lender or an Issuer. 

 and the result of any of the foregoing is reasonably
determined by any Lender or Issuer to increase the cost to, reduce the income receivable by, or impose any expense (including loss of margin) upon such Lender or Issuer, any Notional Funding Office or, in the case of clause (iii) hereof, any
Person controlling a Lender or Issuer, with respect to this Agreement, the Notes or the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan or the issuing of any Letter of Credit or the acquiring or maintaining of a participation in any Letter of Credit (or,
in the case of any capital adequacy or similar requirement, to have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s, Issuer’s or controlling Person’s capital, taking into consideration such Lender’s, Issuer’s or
controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount which such Lender or Issuer reasonably deems to be material, such Lender or Issuer may from time to 

  
 44 









 
time promptly notify the Parent of the amount determined in good faith (using any reasonable averaging and attribution methods) by such Lender or Issuer (which determination shall be conclusive
absent manifest error) to be necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuer or such Notional Funding Office or controlling Person for such increase, reduction or imposition. Each Lender and Issuer will furnish the Parent and the Administrative Agent
with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis, the manner of calculation and the amount of each request by such Lender or Issuer for compensation from the Parent under this Section 4.08. Such amount shall be due and payable by
the Parent to such Lender or Issuer five Business Days after such notice is given. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parent will not be required to reimburse any Lender or Issuer for any such increase, reduction or imposition under this
Section 4.08(a) that (i) arises prior to 120 days preceding the date of such Lender’s or Issuer’s request for compensation under this Section 4.08(a), unless the applicable Law, guideline, change, interpretation or
application is imposed retroactively or (ii) if the applicable Law, guideline, change, interpretation or application is imposed retroactively, arises prior to 120 days preceding the later of the date the Lender or Issuer reasonably should have
learned of such Law, guideline, change, interpretation or application and the date of such Lender’s or Issuer’s request. 
 Each Lender will take actions of the type referred to in Section 4.10, if such actions would avoid the conditions referred to in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) of this Section 4.08(a)
and would not in the good faith judgment of such Lender be disadvantageous in any way to such Lender or its Affiliates at such time or in the future. 
 If a Lender requests reimbursement under this Section 4.08(a), so long as the circumstances giving rise to such request continue to exist, the Parent at its option, may replace such Lender with
another commercial lending institution (which may be a Lender) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent by giving notice of such replacement Lender to such Lender and the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent or any Issuer
shall object to the identity of such proposed replacement Lender within 10 days after receipt of such notice, the Lender being so replaced shall, upon indefeasible payment in full to it of all amounts owed to it hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, including all amounts owed under Section 4.08(c) hereof, assign all of its interests hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to such replacement Lender and such replacement Lender shall assume all of such other Lender’s
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.14(c) hereof. 

(b) Additional Reserve Costs. For so long as any Lender is required to make special deposits with the European Central Bank, the
Bank of England and/or The Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or comply with reserve assets, liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of the European Central Bank,
the Bank of England and/or The Financial Services Authority (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions), to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of the Euro-Rate Portion of such
Lender’s Revolving Loans, such Lender shall be entitled to require the Relevant Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Revolving Loans, additional interest on such Revolving Loan at a rate per annum
equal to the Mandatory Costs Rate calculated in accordance with the formula and in the manner set forth in Schedule V hereto. Any additional interest owed pursuant to this subsection 4.08(b) shall be determined in reasonable detail by the
applicable 

  
 45 









 
Lender, which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, and notified to the Relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) at least five Business Days
before each date on which interest is payable for the applicable Loan, and such additional interest so notified to the Relevant Borrower by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender on each date on which
interest is payable for such Loan. 
 (c) Funding Breakage. If any repayment of principal with respect to any part of any
Funding Segment of any Euro-Rate Portion of the Loans is made on a day other than on the last day of the corresponding Funding Period, or any prepayment of principal with respect to any Competitive Bid Loan is made, as a result of an acceleration of
the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 9.02 or for any other reason, or if any Borrower fails to borrow after giving notice of borrowing, the Parent shall reimburse each Lender on demand for any loss incurred by such Lender as a result of the
timing of such payment, prepayment or failure, including (without limitation) any loss incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties but excluding loss of margin for the period after such payment, prepayment or failure,
provided that such Lender shall have delivered to the Parent a certificate setting forth the basis for determining such loss, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 

SECTION 4.09. Taxes. (a) Payments Net of Taxes. All payments made by the Borrowers under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (x) in the case of each Lender, each
Issuer and the Administrative Agent, net income taxes imposed on such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, by the United States or a political subdivision thereof, and net income taxes and franchise taxes imposed
on such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is organized or by any political subdivision thereof, and
(y) in the case of each Lender, net income taxes and franchise taxes imposed on such Lender by the jurisdiction in which is located the Lender’s lending office which makes or books a particular extension of credit hereunder or any
political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deduction, charges, withholdings and liabilities being referred to as “Taxes”). If any Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of
any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Lender, any Issuer or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions
applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.09) such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such
Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law. 

(b) Other Taxes. In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or
property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document
(hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

  
 46 









 (c) Indemnity by the Parent. The Parent will indemnify each Lender and Issuer and the
Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.09) paid by such Lender or Issuer or Administrative
Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including, without limitation, penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. The Administrative
Agent and each Issuer and Lender agree to give notice to the Parent of the assertion of any claim against the Administrative Agent or such Issuer or Lender relating to such Taxes or Other Taxes as promptly as is practicable after being notified of
such assertion; provided, that the Administrative Agent’s or such Issuer’s or Lender’s failure to notify the Parent promptly of such assertion shall not relieve the Parent of its obligations under this Section 4.09 except
to the extent that the Parent is actually prejudiced thereby. Payments by the Parent pursuant to this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Administrative Agent or such Issuer or Lender makes written demand therefor
(submitted through the Administrative Agent), which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate describing in reasonable detail the basis therefor. 
 (d) Lender Indemnity. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but only to the extent that the Parent has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for
such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Parent to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender 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. The indemnity under this Section 4.09(d) shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent
delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. 

(e) Receipts, etc. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes, the Parent will furnish to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
 (f) Other. Nothing in
this Section 4.09 or otherwise in this Agreement shall require any Lender to disclose to any other party to this Agreement any of its tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary). 

(g) Withholding Tax Exemption. (i) Each Lender organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States
shall, on the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Parent or the Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent and the Parent with the forms prescribed by the
United States Internal Revenue Service certifying as to such Lender’s status for purposes of determining exemption from, or reduced rate applicable to, United States withholding taxes with respect to payments to be made to such Lender
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) if a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to United States Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails 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 

  
 47 









 
Administrative Agent and the Parent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Parent, 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 Administrative Agent or the Parent as may be necessary for such party to comply with its
obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.; provided, that a Lender shall not be obligated to
provide any such form specified in clause (i) or (ii) after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement if such Lender is not legally able to do so. 
 (h) Relief from Indemnity Obligations. The Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, or to pay any additional amounts to any Lender, in respect of United States Taxes (or any
Taxes imposed by a state of the United States that applies only when such United States Taxes are imposed), pursuant to Sections 4.09(a) or 4.09(c), to the extent that: 

 

	 	(i)	the obligation to pay amounts with respect to United States Taxes existed on the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement (including FATCA);
provided, that this clause (i) shall not apply (A) to a Lender that became a Lender as a result of an assignment made or other action taken at the request of the Parent, or (B) to United States Taxes that arise solely as a
result of the jurisdiction of incorporation or place of business of any Other Borrower, or 

  

	 	(ii)	the obligation to make such indemnification or to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such
Lender or the failure of such Lender to comply with the provisions of Section 4.09(g). 

 (i) Refunds.
If a Lender receives a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower, or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts, pursuant to this Section 4.09, such Lender shall promptly
after the date of such receipt pay over the amount of such refund to the Parent (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Borrower under this Section 4.09 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes
giving rise to such refund and only to the extent that such Lender has determined that the amount of any such refund is directly attributable to payments made under this Agreement), net of all reasonable expenses of such Lender (including additional
Taxes and Other Taxes attributable to such refund, as determined by such Lender) and without interest (other than interest, if any, paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Parent shall, upon demand, pay to such
Lender any amount paid over to the Parent by such Lender (plus penalties, interest or other charges) in the event such Lender is required to repay any portion of such refund to such Governmental Authority. 

(j) Cure Action. Each Lender agrees to take actions of the type referred to in Section 4.10, if such actions would avoid or
reduce payments under this Section 4.09 and would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be disadvantageous in any way to such Lender or its Affiliates at such time or in the future. 

  
 48 









 SECTION 4.10. Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate. (a) Notional
Funding. Each Lender shall have the right from time to time, prospectively or retrospectively, without notice to any Borrower, to deem any branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender to have made, maintained or funded any part of the Loans at
any time; provided, that if a Lender exercises such right as a matter of administrative convenience and not as required by Law or by this Agreement, then the Parent shall not be required to reimburse the Lender for any increased amounts
payable under Section 4.08(a) or 4.09 hereof that result from the exercise of such right. Any branch, subsidiary or Affiliate so deemed shall be known as a “Notional Funding Office.” Such Lender shall deem any part of its Loans or the
funding therefor to have been transferred to a different Notional Funding Office if such transfer would avoid or cure an event or condition described in Section 2.05(d)(i)(B) hereof or would lessen compensation payable by any Borrower under
Sections 4.08(a) or 4.09 hereof, and would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be disadvantageous in any way to such Lender or its Affiliates at such time or in the future (it being assumed for purposes of such determination that
the Loans are actually made or maintained by or funded through the corresponding Notional Funding Office). Notional Funding Offices may be selected by such Lender without regard to such Lender’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding
Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Lender. 
 (b) Actual Funding. Each Lender shall
have the right from time to time to make or maintain any part of the Loans by arranging for a branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender to make or maintain such part of the Loans; provided, that if a Lender exercises such right as a
matter of administrative convenience and not as required by Law or by this Agreement, then the Parent shall not be required to reimburse the Lender for any increased amounts payable under Section 4.08(a) or 4.09 hereof that result from the
exercise of such right. Such Lender shall have the right to (i) hold any applicable Note payable to its order for the benefit and account of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate or (ii) request any Borrower to issue one or more promissory
notes in the principal amount of such part, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A or B, as the case may be, with the blanks appropriately filled, payable to such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate and with appropriate changes
reflecting that the holder thereof is not obligated to make any additional Loans to any Borrower. Each Borrower agrees to comply promptly with any request under subsection (ii) of this Section 4.10(b). If any Lender causes a branch,
subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans and to any note payable to the
order of such branch, subsidiary or Affiliate to the same extent as if such part of the Loans were made or maintained and such note were a Note payable to such Lender’s order. 

SECTION 4.11. Several Obligations. The failure of any Lender to make a Revolving Credit Loan shall not relieve any other Lender of
its obligation to lend hereunder, but neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Revolving Credit Loan. 
 SECTION 4.12. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long
as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender : 
 (a) Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender
pursuant to Section 2.04(a). 

  
 49 









 (b) The Revolving Credit Committed Amount, Loans and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender
shall not be included in determining whether the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.03); provided, this
clause (b) shall not apply for purposes of any amendment, modification or waiver that (i) increases such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Committed Amount or extends the maturity of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment or
(ii) requires the consent of all Lenders or each Lender affected thereby and treats such Defaulting Lender differently than the other respective Lenders. 
 (c) If any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent
(A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time and (B) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all
non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments;

 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash

 (d) So long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuers shall be required to issue,

the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Parent in accordance with clauses (c)(i) and (ii) above. 
 (e) If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a parent entity of which any Lender is a subsidiary shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) an
Issuer has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of

Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations hereunder and (D) to the extent not applied or held as aforesaid, be distributed to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(g) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Parent and the Issuers each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied
all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving
Credit Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. 

  
 51 









 (h) So long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Parent may, at its option, replace
such Defaulting Lender with another commercial lending institution (which may be a Lender) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent by giving notice of such replacement Lender to such Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent. Unless
the Administrative Agent or any Issuer shall object to the identity of such proposed replacement Lender within 10 days after receipt of such notice, the Defaulting Lender being so replaced shall, upon indefeasible payment in full to it of all
amounts owed to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents assign all of its interests hereunder and under the Loan Documents to such replacement Lender and such replacement Lender shall assume all of such Defaulting Lender’s obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of 12.14(c). 
 (i) So long as such Lender is a
Defaulting Lender and no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred or exists, the Parent may, at its option, reduce the unused portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment without being required to reduce any other
Lender’s Commitment. Any such reduction shall be effective upon written notice by the Parent to the Administrative Agent.

following: 
  

	 	(a)	any lack of legality, validity, enforceability or allowability (in a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or similar proceeding, or otherwise), or any

	 	(c)	 any impairment by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person of any recourse of the Parent against any Other Borrower or any other
Person; any failure to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; any extensions of credit in excess of the amount committed under or contemplated by the Loan Documents, or in circumstances in which

 SECTION 10.03. Waivers, etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Parent hereby waives any
defense to or limitation on its obligations under this Article X arising out of or based on any event or circumstance referred to in Section 10.02. Without limitation, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Parent waives each of the
following for purposes of this Article X: 
  

	 	(a)	all notices, disclosures and demands of any nature which otherwise might be required from time to time to preserve intact any rights against the Parent, including
(i) any notice of any event or circumstance described in Section 10.02, (ii) any notice required by any Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction, (iii) any notice of nonpayment, nonperformance, dishonor, or protest
under any Loan Document or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) any notice of the incurrence of any Guaranteed Obligation, (v) any notice of any default (other than notices expressly required under Article IX hereof) or any failure

pertaining to the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Other Borrower or any other Person; 

  

	 	(b)	any right to any marshalling of assets, to the filing of any claim against any Other Borrower or any other Person in the event of any bankruptcy, insolvency,

requirement that the Parent receive notice of such acceptance; and 

  

	 	(c)	 any defense or other right arising by reason of any Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction pertaining to election of remedies (including
anti-deficiency laws, “one action” laws or similar laws), or by reason of any election of remedies or other 



  
 63 










	 	 
action or inaction by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including commencement or completion of any judicial proceeding or nonjudicial sale or other action in respect of collateral security
for any of the Guaranteed Obligations), which results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or Lenders to seek a deficiency against any Other Borrower or any other Person, or which otherwise discharges or impairs any of
the Guaranteed Obligations or any recourse of the Parent against any Other Borrower or any other Person. 



SECTION 10.04. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Parent under this Article X shall continue to be effective, or be
automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is avoided, rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any reason, all as though such payment had
not been made. 
 SECTION 10.05. No Stay. Without limitation of any other provision of this Agreement, if any
acceleration of the time for payment of any Guaranteed Obligation, or any condition to any such acceleration, shall at any time be stayed, enjoined or prevented for any reason (including stay or injunction resulting from the pendency against any
Other Borrower or any other Person of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, dissolution or similar proceeding), the Parent agrees that, for purposes of this Article X and its obligations hereunder, such Guaranteed Obligation shall be deemed
to have been accelerated, and such condition to acceleration shall be deemed to have been met. 
 SECTION 10.06.
Payments. All payments to be made by the Parent pursuant to this Article X shall be made at the times, in the manner and in the currency prescribed for payments in Section 4.05 of this Agreement, without set-off, counterclaim,
withholding or other deduction of any nature, except for payments and deductions permitted by Section 4.05. 
 SECTION
10.07. Subrogation, etc. Any rights which the Parent may have or acquire by way of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnity, and any similar rights (whether arising by operation of law, by agreement or otherwise),
against each Other Borrower, arising from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of any of the obligations of the Parent under or in connection with this Agreement, shall be subordinate in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations,
and the Parent shall not exercise any such rights until the earlier of the time when all Guaranteed Obligations and all other obligations under this Agreement have been paid in full and all Commitments shall have terminated or the time when such
Other Borrower ceases to be an Other Borrower hereunder. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any amount shall be received by the Parent on account of any such rights at any time prior to the earlier of the time when all Guaranteed Obligations under
this Agreement shall have been paid in full and all Commitments shall have terminated or the time when such Other Borrower shall have ceased to be an Other Borrower hereunder, such amount shall be held by the Parent in trust for the benefit of the
Lenders, segregated from other funds held by the Parent, and shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in the exact form received by the Parent (with any necessary endorsement), to be applied to the Guaranteed
Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with this Agreement, or to be held by 

  
 64 









 
the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders as security for the Guaranteed Obligations and disposed of by the Administrative Agent in any lawful manner, all as the Administrative Agent may
elect in accordance with this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.08. Continuing Agreement. The provisions of this Article X
are a continuing guaranty and shall continue in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full, and all Commitments have terminated, subject in any event to reinstatement in accordance with Section 10.04.

 ARTICLE XI 
 The Administrative Agent 
 SECTION 11.01. Appointment. Each Lender
and Issuer hereby appoints RBS to act as Administrative Agent for such Lender or Issuer under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes RBS as Administrative Agent to take such action on behalf
of such Lender or Issuer under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties, as are expressly delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. RBS hereby agrees to act as Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and Issuers on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
subject to its right to resign as provided in Section 11.10 hereof. Each Lender and Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver each of the Loan Documents and to accept delivery of such of the other Loan
Documents as may not require execution by the Administrative Agent. Each Lender and Issuer agrees that the rights and remedies granted to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents shall be exercised exclusively by the Administrative Agent,
and that no Lender or Issuer shall have any right individually to exercise any such right or remedy, except to the extent expressly provided herein or therein. 
 SECTION 11.02. General Nature of the Administrative Agent’s Duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document: 

 

	 	(a)	The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and no implied
duties or responsibilities on the part of the Administrative Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any Loan Document or shall otherwise exist. 

  

	 	(b)	The duties and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and the
Administrative Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or Issuer. 


  
 65 










	 	(c)	The Administrative Agent is and shall be solely the agent of the Lenders and Issuers. The Administrative Agent does not assume, and shall not at any time be deemed to
have, any relationship of agency or trust with or for, or any other duty or responsibility to, any Borrower or any other Person (except only for its relationship as agent for, and its express duties and responsibilities to, the Lenders and Issuers
as provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents). 

  

	 	(d)	The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document if the Administrative Agent believes in good
faith that taking such action may conflict with any Law or any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or may require the Administrative Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified.


 SECTION 11.03. Exercise of Powers. The Administrative Agent shall take any action of the type specified
in this Agreement or any other Loan Document as being within the Administrative Agent’s rights, powers or discretion in accordance with directions from the Required Lenders (or, to the extent this Agreement or such Loan Document expressly
requires the direction or consent of some other Person or set of Persons, then instead in accordance with the directions of such other Person or set of Persons). In the absence of such directions, the Administrative Agent shall have the authority
(but under no circumstances shall be obligated), in its sole discretion, to take any such action, except to the extent this Agreement or such Loan Document expressly requires the direction or consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders (or some
other Person or set of Persons), in which case the Administrative Agent shall not take such action absent such direction or consent. Any action or inaction pursuant to such direction, discretion or consent shall be binding on all the Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall not have any liability to any Person as a result of (x) the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (except where such direction directly
contravenes an express provision hereof under which the Administrative Agent is required to give notice or apply funds), (y) the Administrative Agent refraining from acting in the absence of instructions to act from the Required Lenders (or
other applicable Person or set of Persons), whether or not the Administrative Agent has discretionary power to take such action (except where such instruction directly contravenes an express provision hereof under which the Administrative Agent is
required to give notice or apply funds), or (z) the Administrative Agent taking discretionary action it is authorized to take under this Section (subject, in the case of this clause (z), to the provisions of Section 12.04(a) hereof).

 SECTION 11.04. General Exculpatory Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or
any other Loan Document: 
  

	 	(a)	The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
unless caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 


  
 66 










	 	(b)	The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuer for (i) the execution, delivery, effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or
adequacy of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) any recital, representation, warranty, document, certificate, report or statement in, provided for in, or received under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, (iii) any failure of any Borrower or Lender to perform any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, recordation, priority, adequacy
or value, now or hereafter, of any lien or other direct or indirect security afforded or purported to be afforded by any of the Loan Documents or otherwise from time to time, or (v) caring for, protecting, insuring, or paying any taxes, charges
or assessments with respect to any collateral. 

  

	 	(c)	The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to ascertain, inquire or give any notice to any Lender or Issuer relating to (i) the performance or
observance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of any Borrower, (ii) the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any Borrower or any other Person, or
(iii) except to the extent set forth in Section 11.05(f) hereof, the existence of any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default. 

  

	 	(d)	The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or Issuer with any notices, reports or
information of any nature, whether in its possession presently or hereafter, except for such notices, reports and other information expressly required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be furnished by the Administrative Agent to such
Lender or Issuer. 

 SECTION 11.05. Administration by the Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative
Agent may rely upon any notice or other communication of any nature (written or oral, including but not limited to telephone conversations, whether or not such notice or other communication is made in a manner permitted or required by this Agreement
or any Loan Document) purportedly made by or on behalf of the proper party or parties, and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to verify the identity or authority of any Person giving such notice or other communication. 

(b) The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, in-house counsel for the Administrative Agent
or in-house or other counsel for any Borrower), independent public accountants and any other experts selected by it from time to time, and the Administrative Agent 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. 

  
 67 









 (c) The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed in any certificates or opinions furnished to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Whenever the Administrative Agent shall deem it necessary
or desirable that a matter be proved or established with respect to any Borrower or Lender, such matter may be established by a certificate of such Borrower or Lender, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon such
certificate (unless other evidence with respect to such matter is specifically prescribed in this Agreement or another Loan Document). 
 (d) The Administrative Agent may fail or refuse to take any action unless it shall be indemnified to its satisfaction from time to time against any and all amounts, liabilities, obligations, losses,
damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

 (e) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through
agents or attorneys-in-fact. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in fact selected by it with reasonable care. 

(f) The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have any knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default or Potential
Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Event of Default or Potential Event of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall give prompt notice thereof to each Lender and Issuer. 
 SECTION 11.06. Lender Not Relying on the Administrative Agent or Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges as follows: (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Lender has made any
representations or warranties to it, and no act taken hereafter by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or such other Lender to it. (b) It has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents. (c) It will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, make its own decisions to take
or not take action under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 11.07.
Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuer and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by a Borrower as set forth herein and without
limitation of the obligations of the Borrowers to do so as set forth herein), Pro Rata, from and against any and all amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements
of any kind or nature (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent or 

  
 68 









 
such other Person in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such other Person shall be
designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such other Person as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, or any transaction financed in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any Loan, provided that no Lender or Issuer shall be liable for any
portion of such amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such other
Person, as finally determined in a non appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.08. The
Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its Commitments and the Obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and each other Loan Document as any other
Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lenders,” “holders of Notes” and like terms shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as such. The
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may, without liability to account, make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire debt or equity interests in, act as trustee under indentures of, and engage in any other business with, any Borrower and any
stockholder, subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower, as though the Administrative Agent were not an Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 SECTION 11.09. Lenders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Lender signatory hereto as a Lender hereunder for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person assigns all of its
interests hereunder pursuant to Section 12.14(c) hereof. Any authority, direction or consent of any Person who at the time of giving such authority, direction or consent is shown in the Register as being a Lender shall be conclusive and binding
on each present and subsequent transferee or assignee. 
 SECTION 11.10. Successor Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 10 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuers and the Parent. The Administrative Agent may be removed by the Required Lenders at any time by giving 10 days’ prior
written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, the Issuers, the other Lenders and the Parent. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to the consent of
the Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and consented to, and shall have
accepted such appointment, within 30 days after such notice of resignation or removal, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided, that if the
Administrative Agent is resigning, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective on the date that is 40 days after its initial notice of resignation and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the
duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Each successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank or trust company organized under the laws
of the United States of America or any State thereof and having a combined 

  
 69 









 
capital and surplus of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent
shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the properties, rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Administrative Agent, without further act, deed or conveyance. Upon the effective date of resignation or removal of a retiring
Administrative Agent, such Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, but the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted by it while it
was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11.11. Calculations. The Administrative Agent shall not be
liable for any calculation, apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith. If such calculation, apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment
was due but not made shall be to recover from the other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled or, if the amount due was not paid by the appropriate Borrower, to recover such amount from the
appropriate Borrower. 
 SECTION 11.12. The Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Parent agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for its individual account, a nonrefundable Administrative Agent’s fee in an amount and at such time or times as specified in the Fee Letter. 
 SECTION 11.13. Funding by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender not later than the time such Revolving Credit Loan is proposed
to be made that such Lender will not make its ratable share of such Revolving Credit Loans, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make its ratable share of such Loans, and in reliance upon such assumption the Administrative Agent
may (but in no circumstances shall be required to) make available to such Borrower a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that any Lender fails to make such payment to the Administrative Agent on such date, such Lender shall pay such amount on
demand (or, if such Lender fails to pay such amount on demand, such Borrower shall pay such amount on demand), together with interest, for the Administrative Agent’s own account, for each day from and including the date of the Administrative
Agent’s payment to and including the date of repayment to the Administrative Agent (before and after judgment) at the rate or rates per annum applicable to such Loans. All payments to the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be
made to the Administrative Agent at its Office without set-off, withholding, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature. 

SECTION 11.14. Co-Syndication Agents; Co-Documentation Agents. None of the Lenders identified in this Agreement as a
“Co-Syndication Agent” or “Co-Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement in such identified capacity other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.
Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgements with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the
Administrative Agent in Section 11.06. 

  
 70 









 ARTICLE XII 
 Miscellaneous 
 SECTION 12.01. Holidays. Whenever any payment or
action to be made or taken hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day and such extension of time shall
be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action. 
 SECTION 12.02. Records.
The unpaid principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender, the unpaid interest accrued thereon, the interest rate or rates applicable to such unpaid principal amount, the duration of such applicability, each Lender’s Revolving Credit
Committed Amount shall at all times be ascertained from the records of the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 12.03. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any Loan Document may be amended, modified or supplemented except in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The
Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrowers may from time to time amend, modify or supplement the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document for the purpose of amending, adding to, or waiving any provisions, or changing
in any manner the rights and duties of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment, modification or supplement of the provisions of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document of the kind described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 12.03 may be entered into from time to time by the Administrative Agent, each Lender affected thereby and the Parent. Any such amendment, modification or
supplement made by the Borrowers (or the Parent, as the case may be), the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Section shall be binding upon the Borrowers, each Lender and the Administrative
Agent; provided, that no amendment, modification or supplement shall be effective which will: 
  

	 	(a)	Increase the Revolving Credit Committed Amount of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect, or extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the Competitive Bid
Expiration Date (except in each case in accordance with Section 4.01) or extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless executed by each Lender affected thereby (and, with respect to Letters
of Credit, the applicable Issuer); 

  

	 	(b)	 Reduce the principal amount of or extend (except in accordance with Section 4.01) the scheduled final maturity of any Loan, or reduce the amount
of any LC Disbursement, or extend any scheduled payment date or prepayment date of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or reduce the rate of interest or extend the time for payment of interest borne by any Loan, or extend the time for payment of
or reduce the amount of any Commitment Fee or reduce or postpone the date for payment of any other fees, expenses, 



  
 71 










	 	 
indemnities or amounts payable under any Loan Document, unless executed by each Lender affected thereby (and, with respect to LC Disbursements, the applicable Issuer);



  

	 	(c)	Change the definition of “Required Lenders”, the definition of “Defaulting Lender” or the definition of “Designated Currency” or any
provision of this Agreement that states a requirement for the consent of all the Lenders or amend Section 4.12(b) or this Section 12.03, unless executed by all the Lenders; 


 

	 	(d)	Amend the third sentence of the third paragraph of Section 4.05(a) or Section 12.13, unless executed by all the Lenders; or 


 

	 	(e)	Amend or waive any of the provisions of Article XI hereof, or impose additional duties upon the Administrative Agent or any Issuer or otherwise adversely affect
the rights, interests or obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer, unless executed by the Administrative Agent or such Issuer, as the case may be; or 


 

	 	(f)	Release the Parent from any of its obligations under Article X hereof, unless executed by all Lenders; 


and provided further, that (i) Assignment Agreements may be entered into in the manner provided in Section 12.14 hereof and
(ii) any fees payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. Any such amendment, modification or supplement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent
set forth in such writing. Any Event of Default or Potential Event of Default waived or consented to in any such amendment, modification or supplement shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing to the extent and for the period set forth in such
waiver or consent, but no such waiver or consent shall extend to any other or subsequent Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all
documentation and receipt of all consents required by Section 2.09 to be delivered in connection with an increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended without further action by any party to reflect,
as applicable, the new Lenders and their new Revolving Credit Committed Amounts and any increase in the Revolving Credit Committed Amounts of any existing Lender. 
 SECTION 12.04. No Implied Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer or Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment
or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies under this Agreement and any other Loan Document are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights or remedies which would otherwise be available at law or in equity.

Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 
 (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the
Administrative Agent or as otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable
of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Parent may, in its respective discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by it or as it otherwise determines, provided that such determination or approval may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and
other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or
other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not given during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on
the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing
clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

(c) Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by written notice to
(i) the Administrative Agent and the 

  
 73 









 
Parent in the case of a change by a Lender or an Issuer, (ii) the Administrative Agent and each Lender in the case of a change by any of the Borrowers or (iii) all other parties hereto
in the case of a change by the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Any Lender giving any notice to the Borrowers or any other party to
a Loan Document shall simultaneously send a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the receipt by it of any such notice. 

(e) The Administrative Agent and each Lender may rely on any notice (whether or not such notice is made in a manner permitted or required
by this Agreement or any Loan Document) purportedly made by or on behalf of the Borrowers, and neither the Administrative Agent nor Lender shall have any duty to verify the identity or authority of any Person giving such notice. 

SECTION 12.06. Expenses; Indemnity; No Consequential Damages. (a) The Parent agrees to pay or cause to be paid and to save
the Agents harmless against liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable fees and expenses of one outside counsel) incurred by the Agents from time to time arising from or
relating to (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of any requested amendments, modifications, supplements,
waivers or consents (whether or not ultimately entered into or granted) to this Agreement or any Loan Document. The Parent agrees to pay or cause to be paid and to save each Issuer harmless against liability for the payment of all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Issuer in connection with its issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder. The Parent agrees to pay or cause to be paid and to save the Agents, each
Issuer and each Lender harmless against liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including but not limited to reasonable fees and expenses of one outside counsel for the Administrative Agent, each Issuer and each Lender,
and of in-house counsel and local counsel, and auditors, and all other professional, accounting, evaluation and consulting costs) reasonably incurred after the occurrence of an Event of Default by the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any Lender
from time to time arising from or relating to the enforcement or preservation of rights under this Agreement or any Loan Document. 
 (b) The Parent hereby agrees to reimburse and indemnify each of the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of one counsel and of in-house and local counsel for such Indemnified Party in connection with any investigative,
administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnified Party shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Indemnified Party as a result of, or
arising out of, or in any way related to or by reason of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, any transaction supported by any Letter of Credit or financed in whole or in part
or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit or any refusal by an Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents 

  
 74 









 
presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements to the extent they result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If and to the extent that the foregoing obligations of the Parent under this subsection
(b), or any other indemnification obligation of the Parent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, are unenforceable for any reason, the Parent hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations
which is permissible under applicable Law. 
 (c) Without limiting the provisions of Section 12.06(b), in no event will any
party hereto be liable to any other party hereto for any punitive, special, indirect or consequential damages for any matters arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, however, that the foregoing limitation shall
not be deemed to impair or affect the obligations of the Parent under Section 12.06(b). 
 SECTION 12.07.
Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction. 

SECTION 12.08. Prior Understandings. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents supersede all prior and contemporaneous
understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, among the parties hereto relating to the transactions provided for herein and therein except for the Fee Letter. 
 SECTION 12.09. Duration; Survival. All representations and warranties of each Borrower contained herein or in any other Loan Document or made in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the
making of, and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any investigation by or knowledge of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer or Lender, the making of any Loan or issuance or Modification
of any Letter of Credit, or any other event or condition whatever. All covenants and agreements of each Borrower contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall continue in full force and effect from and after the date hereof so long as any
Borrower may borrow hereunder and until payment in full of all Obligations. Without limitation, all obligations of the Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document to make payments to or indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall
survive the payment in full of all other Obligations, termination of the Borrowers’ right to borrow hereunder, and all other events and conditions whatever, including without limitation the assignment of a Lender’s Commitments and Loans
and LC Exposure hereunder. In addition, all obligations of each Lender to make payments to or indemnify the Administrative Agent shall survive the payment in full by the Borrowers of all Obligations, termination of the Borrowers’ right to
borrow hereunder, and all other events or conditions whatever. 
 SECTION 12.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 


  
 75 









 SECTION 12.11. Limitation on Payments. The parties hereto intend to conform to all
applicable Laws in effect from time to time limiting the maximum rate of interest that may be charged or collected. Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of any other Loan Document, the Borrowers shall not be required to make
any payment to or for the account of any Lender, and each Lender shall refund any payment made by the Borrowers, to the extent that such requirement or such failure to refund would violate or conflict with nonwaivable provisions of applicable Laws
limiting the maximum amount of interest which may be charged or collected by such Lender. 
 SECTION 12.12. Set-Off. Each
Borrower hereby agrees that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Lender and Issuer shall have the right, without notice to such Borrower, to set-off against and to appropriate and apply to such Obligation any matured
indebtedness or other fixed liability or matured obligation of any nature owing to such Borrower by such Lender or Issuer, including but not limited to all deposits (whether time or demand, general or special, provisionally credited or finally
credited, whether or not evidenced by a certificate of deposit) now or hereafter maintained by such Borrower with such Lender or Issuer. Such right shall be absolute and unconditional in all circumstances and, without limitation, shall exist whether
or not such Lender, such Issuer or any other Person shall have given notice or made any demand to such Borrower or any other Person, and regardless of the existence or adequacy of any collateral, guaranty or any other security, right or remedy
available to any Lender, Issuer or any other Person. Each Borrower hereby agrees that any Participant and any branch, subsidiary or Affiliate of any Lender or Issuer or any Participant shall have the same rights of set-off as a Lender or Issuer as
provided in this Section (regardless of whether such Participant, branch, subsidiary or Affiliate would otherwise be deemed in privity with or a direct creditor of such Borrower). The rights provided by this Section are in addition to all
other rights of set-off and banker’s lien and all other rights and remedies which any Lender or Issuer (or any such Participant, branch, subsidiary or Affiliate) may otherwise have under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, at law or in
equity, or otherwise, and nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall be deemed a waiver or prohibition of or restriction on the rights of set-off or bankers’ lien of any such Person. 

SECTION 12.13. Sharing of Collections. The Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any Lender shall receive (by voluntary
payment, realization upon security, set-off or from any other source) any amount on account of the Revolving Credit Loans and interest thereon or participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements in greater proportion (determined by reference to
the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures at such time) than any such amount received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall notify each other Lender and the Administrative Agent of such receipt, and
equitable adjustment will be made in the manner stated in this Section so that, in effect, all such excess amounts will be shared ratably among all of the Lenders. The Lender receiving such excess amount shall purchase (which it shall be deemed
to have done simultaneously upon the receipt of such excess amount) for cash from the other Lenders a participation in the applicable Revolving Credit Loans and interest thereon and participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements owed to such
other Lenders in such amount as shall result in a ratable sharing 

  
 76 









 
by all Lenders of such excess amount (and to such extent the receiving Lender shall be a Participant). If all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from the Lender making
such purchase, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by Law to be paid by the Lender making such purchase. Each Borrower hereby
consents to and confirms the foregoing arrangements. Each Participant shall be bound by this Section as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. 
 SECTION 12.14. Successors and Assigns; Participations; Assignments. (a) Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuers and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrowers shall not have the right to assign their respective rights or
obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.14(c), and (iii) any transfer by participation must be made in
compliance with Section 12.14(b). Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 12.14 shall, subject to Section 12.14(c)(iii), be null and void. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge
that clause (ii) of this Section 12.14 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 12.14 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any
Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any
Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the Assignor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and
until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.14(c). The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person
complies with Section 12.14(c); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct
payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent
of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or
assignee of the rights to such Loan. 
 (b) Participations.  

 

	 	(i)	 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating
interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a
Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the 



  
 77 










	 	 
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Loans and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under
the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers, the Issuers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. 


  

	 	(ii)	Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 12.03(a),
(b), (c), (d) or (f). 

  

	 	(iii)	Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Parent agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.07, 4.08 and 4.09 to the same extent
as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.14(c), provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.07, 4.08 or 4.09 than the
Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Parent, and
(ii) any Participant not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 4.09 to the same extent as if it were a Lender. 


 

	 	(iv)	 Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Parent, maintain a
register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”).
The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement
notwithstanding any notice to the contrary; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to the Parent or any other Person (including the identity of any Participant or any
information relating to a Participant’s interest under the Loan Documents) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish 



  
 78 










	 	 
that the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents are in registered form under Section 5f-103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 



(c) Assignments. 
  

	 	(i)	Permitted Assignments. Any Lender (each an “Assignor Lender”) may at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (each an “Assignee
Lender”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit E or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto (an “Assignment
Agreement”). Each such assignment with respect to an Assignee Lender which is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Commitment and Loans of the Assignor Lender or
(unless each of the Parent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $5,000,000. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Commitment or outstanding Loans (if the Commitment has been
terminated) subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the assignment. After giving effect to any assignment, the remaining Commitment of
the assigning Lender (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, then the aggregate principal amount of Loans held by the assigning Lender) shall either be zero or be at least $10,000,000. Unless such assignment is consented to by the Parent or is
required by applicable law, no assignment may be made to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender if such assignment would increase the amounts payable by any Borrower hereunder. No assignment may be made hereunder if such assignment violates applicable
law. 

  

	 	(ii)	Consents. The consent of the Parent shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Assignee Lender is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender
or an Approved Fund, provided that the consent of the Parent shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuer shall be required prior to an assignment becoming
effective. Any consent required under this Section 12.14(c) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

  

	 	(iii)	 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Administrative Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by
Section 12.14(c)(ii), and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date
specified in such 



  
 79 










	 	 
assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the Assignee Lender to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans under the
applicable assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Assignee Lender in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the
effective date of such assignment, such Assignee Lender shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under
the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the Assignor Lender shall be released with respect to the Commitment and Loans and LC Exposure assigned to such Assignee Lender without any further consent or
action by the Borrowers, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the Assignor Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the applicable agreement. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender
of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.14(c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
Section 12.14(b). Upon the consummation of any assignment to an Assignee Lender pursuant to this Section 12.14(c), the Assignor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall, if the Assignor Lender or the Assignee Lender desires
that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such Assignor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Assignee Lender,
in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment. 


 (d) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its office a copy of each assignment hereunder delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error and the Borrowers, the
Administrative Agent, the Issuers and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of the Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or any Issuer or
Lender, as to its commitment only, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

  
 80 









 (e) Financial and Other Information. Each Borrower authorizes the Administrative
Agent and each Issuer and Lender to disclose to any Participant, Assignee Lender or any Affiliate of such Lender (each, a “transferee”) and any prospective transferee any and all financial and other information in such Person’s
possession concerning any Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates which has been or may be delivered to such Person by or on behalf of any Borrower in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or such Person’s
credit evaluation of any Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates; provided, that such transferee or prospective transferee agrees in writing to maintain the confidentiality of any such information provided by the Parent
pursuant to Section 7.01(c)(iv) hereof. At the request of any Lender, the Parent, at the Parent’s expense, shall provide to each prospective transferee the conformed copies of documents referred to in Section 7 of the form of
Assignment Agreement. 
 SECTION 12.15. Judgment Currency. (a) Judgment Currency. The specification in this
Agreement and in the Notes of payment in a particular currency at the Administrative Agent’s Office is of the essence hereof and thereof. If any court or tribunal shall render a judgment or order for the payment of any amounts owing by any
Borrower to any Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note or for the payment by any Borrower of damages in respect of any breach of this Agreement or any Note or under or in respect of a judgment or order of
another court or tribunal for payment of such amounts or damages, and if such judgment or order is expressed in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency payable hereunder (the “Contractual Currency”), the
Relevant Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent against any deficiency in terms of the Contractual Currency in the amounts received by such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent arising or
resulting from any variation as between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purposes of such judgment or order and (ii) the rate of exchange at which such Issuer or
Lender or the Administrative Agent would, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent on the Business
Day following such receipt by such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Liquidation Currency. If any
Borrower shall wind up, liquidate, dissolve or become bankrupt while there remains outstanding any amounts owing by such Borrower to any Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note or any damages owing by such
Borrower to any Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent in respect of a breach of this Agreement or any Note or any judgment or order rendered against such Borrower in respect of such amounts or damages, such Borrower shall indemnify and hold
such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent harmless against any deficiency in terms of the Contractual Currency in the amounts received by such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent arising or resulting from any variation as between
(i) the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into another currency (the “Liquidation Currency”) for purposes of such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy with regard to the amount in the
Contractual Currency due under this Agreement or any Note (other than this Section 12.15(b)) or under any judgment or order into which the relevant obligations under this Agreement or any Note shall have been merged and (ii) the rate of
exchange at which such Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent would, in accordance with normal banking procedures, be 

  
 81 









 
able to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Liquidation Currency at the earlier of (A) the date of payment of such amounts or damages and (B) the final date or dates for the
filing of proofs of a claim in such winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy. As used in the preceding sentence, the “final date or dates for the filing of proofs of a claim in a winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or
bankruptcy” shall be the date fixed by the liquidator or other appropriate person or otherwise applicable under applicable Law as being the last practicable date as of which the liabilities of the Borrower may be ascertained for such
winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy before payment by the liquidator or other appropriate person in respect thereof. 
 (c) Independent Obligations. The indemnities provided by 12.15(a) and (b) hereof shall constitute obligations of each Borrower separate and independent from its other obligations under this
Agreement and the Notes, shall give rise to separate and independent causes of action against each Borrower, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by any Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue
in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order or the filing of any proof or proofs in the winding-up, liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy of any Borrower for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of other amounts due under this
Agreement or any Note or any damages owing to any Issuer or Lender or the Administrative Agent in respect of a breach of this Agreement or any Note or any judgment rendered in respect of such amounts or damages. 

SECTION 12.16. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction: Waiver of Jury Trial. (a) Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND
ALL OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT, IF ANY, OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAW
PRINCIPLES. 
 (b) Certain Waivers. EACH BORROWER, LENDER, ISSUER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL
BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BY ANY PERSON ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY STATEMENT, COURSE OF CONDUCT, ACT, OMISSION OR EVENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THEREWITH (COLLECTIVELY,
“RELATED LITIGATION”). IN ADDITION, EACH BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY: 
  

	 	(i)	AGREES THAT ANY RELATED LITIGATION BY ANY ISSUER OR LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SITTING IN
NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS (BUT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY ISSUER, LENDER OR BORROWER TO BRING ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN ANY OTHER FORUM);



  
 82 










	 	(ii)	WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY RELATED LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH RELATED
LITIGATION HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, AND WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO OBJECT, WITH RESPECT TO ANY RELATED LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, THAT SUCH COURT DOES NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH BORROWER; AND 


 

	 	(iii)	CONSENTS AND AGREES TO SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY RELATED LITIGATION BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED U.S. MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO SUCH
BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS FOR NOTICES DESCRIBED IN SECTION 12.05 HEREOF, AND CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE IN EVERY RESPECT VALID AND EFFECTIVE SERVICE (BUT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR EFFECTIVENESS OF PROCESS
SERVED IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW). 

 SECTION 12.17. USA PATRIOT Act Notification. The following
notification is provided to the Borrowers pursuant to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, 31 U.S.C. Section 5318: 
 IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to
obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product. What this means for
the Borrowers: When the Borrower opens an account, if the Borrower is an individual, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will ask for the Borrower’s name, residential address, tax identification number, date of birth, and other information
that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to identify the Borrower, and, if the Borrower is not an individual, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will ask for the Borrower’s name, tax identification number, business
address, and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to identify the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may also ask, if the Borrower is an individual, to see the Borrower’s driver’s
license or other identifying documents, and, if the Borrower is not an individual, to see the Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents. 
 SECTION 12.18. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Issuer and Lender agrees to hold any confidential information which it may receive from the Borrowers


  
 83 









 
in connection with this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and any agents engaged in connection with this Agreement and to the Administrative Agent and any
Issuer or other Lender and their respective Affiliates and any agents engaged in connection with this Agreement, (ii) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to such Person, (iii) to regulatory officials and agencies
or self-regulatory body, (iv) to any Person as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (v) to any Person in connection with any legal proceeding to which it is a party to the extent such disclosure is required by law and
(vi) to its direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements involving this Agreement or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties. The Borrowers agree that the terms of this
Section 12.18 shall set forth the entire agreement between the Borrowers and each Issuer and Lender (including the Administrative Agent) with respect to any confidential information previously or hereafter received by such Issuer or Lender in
connection with this Agreement, and this Section 12.18 shall supersede any and all prior confidentiality agreements entered into by such Issuer or Lender with respect to such confidential information. In connection with any disclosure of
confidential information pursuant to item (i), (ii) or (vi) above, the disclosing party shall inform the Persons to whom such disclosure is made of the confidential nature of such information and instruct them to keep such information
confidential. 
 SECTION 12.19. Termination of Existing Credit Agreement. Each Lender that is a party to the Existing
Agreement hereby waives the requirement set forth in Section 2.04(d) of the Existing Agreement that the Parent give at least five Business Days’ notice of termination of the “Total Revolving Credit Commitment” as defined in the
Existing Agreement.

 For purposes of the foregoing, (a) if
the Public Debt Ratings established or deemed to have been established by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”), and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.
(“Moody’s”) shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of S&P or Moody’s), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency;
(b) if the Public Debt Ratings established or deemed to have been established by S&P and Moody’s shall fall within different levels, the Applicable Amount shall be based on the higher of the two ratings unless one of the two ratings is
two or more levels lower than the other, in which case the Applicable Amount shall be determined by reference to the level next below that of the higher of the two ratings; and (c) if either S&P or Moody’s shall not have in effect a
Public Debt Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this paragraph), then such rating agency shall be deemed to have established a rating below BBB+/Baa1. Each change in the Applicable Amount shall apply
during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of S&P or Moody’s shall change, the Parent and the Lenders shall
negotiate in good faith to amend this paragraph to reflect such changed rating system and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Amount shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such
change. 
 “Public Debt Rating” means, as of any date, the rating that has been most recently announced by
either S&P or Moody’s, as the case may be, for any class of non-credit enhanced long-term senior unsecured debt issued by the Parent.

 SCHEDULE V 
 MANDATORY COSTS RATE FORMULA 
  

	1.	Amounts payable by reference to the Mandatory Costs Rate are additions to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the
requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 


 

	2.	The Mandatory Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a lending office in a participating member state of the European Community relating to Economic and Monetary Union
(other than the United Kingdom) that has adopted the Euro as its lawful currency will be the percentage reasonably determined by such Lender to be the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Revolving Credit Loans
made from such office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from such office. 

  

	3.	The Mandatory Costs Rate for any Lender lending from a lending office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by such Lender as follows: 


(a) in relation to a sterling Loan: 
  

			
	
AB + C (B – D) + E x 
0.01
	  	percent per annum
	100 – (A + C)	  

 (b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other
than sterling: 
  

			
	 E x 0.01
	 	percent per annum.
	300	 

 Where: 

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which such Lender is
from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 
 B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and the Mandatory Costs Rate and, if applicable, the additional rate of interest specified in Section 4.05(b) (Default
interest)) payable for the relevant Funding Segment on the applicable Loan. 
 C is the percentage (if any)
of Eligible Liabilities which such Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England. 







 D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to such
Lender on interest bearing Special Deposits. 
 E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the
Fees Rules and is calculated by the applicable Lender as being the rate of charge payable by such Lender to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority
(calculated for this purpose by such Lender as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to such Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of such Lender. 

 

	4.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

	 	(a)	“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of
England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 

  

	 	(b)	“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to
time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; 

  

	 	(c)	“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated
fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and 

  

	 	(d)	“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 


 

	5.	In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 percent will be included in the formula as 5 and not as
0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

  

	6.	The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Parent and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties to the Agreement any amendments
which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any
case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to the Agreement.
