 In furtherance of the foregoing, the Borrower has requested that the
Lenders provide a revolving credit facility, and the Lenders have indicated their willingness to lend and the L/C Issuer has indicated its willingness to issue letters of credit, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
herein. 
 In consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto covenant and agree as
follows: 
 ARTICLE I 
 DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS 
 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this
Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below: 
 “Acquired Debt” means, with respect
to any specified Person: 
 (a) Indebtedness of any other Person existing at the time such other Person is merged with or into
or became a Subsidiary of such specified Person, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and 

(b) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person. 

“Acquisition Consideration” means the purchase consideration for any Investment made pursuant to
Section 7.03(g) and all other payments by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries in exchange for, or as part of, or in connection with, such Investment, whether in cash or non cash (including by exchange of Equity Interests or of properties
or otherwise) and whether payable at or prior to the consummation of such Investment or deferred for payment at any future time, whether or not any such future payment is subject to the occurrence of any contingency, and includes any and all
payments representing the purchase price (including the amount of any deferred purchase price obligations) and any assumptions of Indebtedness, “earn-outs” and other agreements to make any payment the








 
amount of which is, or the terms of payment of which are, in any respect subject to or contingent upon the revenues, income, cash flow or profits (or the like) of any person or business;
provided that any such future payment that is subject to a contingency shall be considered Acquisition Consideration only to the extent of the reserve, if any, required under GAAP at the time of such sale to be established in respect thereof
by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 “Act” means the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed
into law October 26, 2001)).

administrative agent under any of the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, or any successor administrative agent. 

“Administrative Agent’s Office” means the Administrative Agent’s address and, as appropriate, account as set
forth on Schedule 11.02, or such other address or account as the Administrative Agent may from time to time notify to the Borrower and the Lenders. 
 “Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. 

“Affiliate” means, with respect to any Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more
intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified. No Person in whom a Receivables Subsidiary makes an Investment in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction will be deemed to be an
Affiliate of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries solely by reason of such Investment. 
 “Agent Parties”
has the meaning specified in Section 11.02(c). 
 “Agreement” has the meaning specified in the
introductory paragraph hereto. 
 “Applicable Fee Rate” means, at any time, 0.75% per annum. 

“Applicable Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender at any time, the percentage (carried out to the ninth decimal
place) of the Facility represented by such Lender’s Commitment at such time, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.15. If the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and the obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit
Extensions have been terminated pursuant to Section 8.02, or if the Commitments have expired, then the Applicable Percentage of each Lender in respect of the Facility shall be determined based on the Applicable Percentage of such Lender
in respect of the Facility most recently in effect, giving effect to any subsequent assignments. The initial Applicable Percentage of each Lender in respect of the Facility is set forth opposite the name of such Lender on Schedule 2.01 or in
the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such Lender becomes a party hereto, as applicable. 
 “Applicable
Rate” means (i) from the Closing Date to the date on which the Administrative Agent receives a Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 6.02(b) for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2010, 3.50% per annum
for Base Rate Loans and 4.50% per annum for Eurodollar Rate Loans and Letter of Credit Fees and (ii) thereafter, the applicable percentage per annum set forth below determined by reference to the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as set forth in

 Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Rate resulting from a change in the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(b); provided, however, that if a Compliance Certificate is not
delivered when due in accordance with such Section, then, upon the request of the Required Lenders, Pricing Level 1 shall apply, in each case as of the first Business Day after the date on which such Compliance Certificate was required to have been
delivered and in each case shall remain in effect until the date on which such Compliance Certificate is delivered. 
 If, as a
result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any
applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under
the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest that should have been paid for such period over
the amount of interest actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(h) or 2.08(b)
or under Article VIII. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 

“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender
or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(c) Section headings herein and in the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement are included for convenience

 1.03. Accounting Terms. 
 (a) Generally. All accounting terms not
specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity
with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the Audited Financial Statements, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal
amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 and FASB ASC 470-20 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed,
and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect)
to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at “fair value”, as defined therein. 
 (b) Changes in GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required
Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the
Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be 

  
 -30-









 
computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents
required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. 

1.04. Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by
dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there
is no nearest number). 
 1.05. Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be
references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable). 
 1.06. Letter of Credit Amounts. Unless otherwise
specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or
the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving
effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time. 
 1.07. Currency
Equivalents Generally. Any amount specified in this Agreement (other than in Article II) or any of the other Loan Documents to be in Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in any currency other than Dollars, such
equivalent amount thereof in the applicable currency to be determined by the Administrative Agent at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate (as defined below) for the purchase of such currency with Dollars. For purposes of this
Section 1.07, the “Spot Rate” for a currency means the rate determined by the Administrative Agent to be the rate quoted by the Person acting in such capacity as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of such
currency with another currency through its principal foreign exchange trading office at approximately 11:00 a.m. on the date two Business Days prior to the date of such determination; provided that the Administrative Agent may obtain
such spot rate from another financial institution designated by the Administrative Agent if the Person acting in such capacity does not have as of the date of determination a spot buying rate for any such currency. 

ARTICLE II 
 THE
COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 
 2.01. The Loans. 

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Revolving
Credit Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however,
that after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Facility, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment; provided, further, that not
more than $5,000,000 of Revolving Credit Loans shall be made on the Closing Date. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01,
prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Revolving Credit Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. 

2.02. Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans. 

(a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three
Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing 

  
 -31-









 
of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or of any conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, and (ii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans; provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the
applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice
to the Appropriate Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m., three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation,
the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans
shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a
conversion of Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day),
(iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect
thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted
to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of,
conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan. 
 (b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Revolving Credit Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the
Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set
forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative
Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably
acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date a Committed Loan Notice with respect to a Revolving Credit Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then
the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, shall be made available to the Borrower as provided above. 

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period
for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, upon notice from the Required Lenders, Loans will cease to be able to be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans. 

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period
for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in
determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 

  
 -32-









 (e) After giving effect to all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving
Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than five (5) Interest Periods in effect. 

2.03. Letters of Credit. 
 (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this
Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, and to amend
or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for
the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (x) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Facility,
(y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or
amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and
subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that
have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 
 (ii) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if:

 (A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would
occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
 (B) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer have approved such expiry date. 

(iii) The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or
restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall
prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital
requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the
L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 
 (B) the issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate one or
more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally; 
 (C) except as otherwise agreed by
the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, the Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit; 

(D) the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or 

  
 -33-









 (E) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the L/C Issuer
has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure
(after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has
actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; 
 (iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter
of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 
 (v) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the
terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 
 (vi) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and
immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer
Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein
with respect to the L/C Issuer. 
 (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of
Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application,
completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time
as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof;
(C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify
in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); and (3) the nature of the proposed amendment.
Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or
the Administrative Agent may reasonably require in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. 
 (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of
such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any
Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in
accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer
a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 

  
 -34-









 (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C
Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit
the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension
Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for
any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later
than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to
issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a)), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in
writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Required Lenders or the
Administrative Agent on their behalf or from the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

 (iv) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion,
agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by
the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Lenders
shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement
Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the
“Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement
Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B) from the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent on their behalf or from the Borrower that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement.

 (v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of
any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 3:00 p.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer
delivers notice of such payment by 11:00 a.m. on such day or, if notice of such payment by the L/C Issuer is delivered after 11:00 a.m., not later than 10:00 a.m. on the next succeeding Business Day (each such date, an “Honor
Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by the time set forth in the preceding sentence,
such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such failure, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”),
and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the
Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Commitments and the conditions set forth
in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the AdministrativeAgent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in
writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

  
 -35-









 (ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds
available to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of
the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall
be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer. 
 (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be
satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand
(together with interest) and shall bear interest (A) at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans to the date reimbursement is required pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) and (B) thereafter at the Default Rate. In such event, each
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from
such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. 
 (iv) Until each Lender funds
its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the
account of the L/C Issuer. 
 (v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for
amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other
right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans (but not to fund L/C Advances or L/C Borrowings) pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice ). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment
made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 
 (vi) If any Lender fails to
make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in
Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for
the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance
with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid),
the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect
of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower
or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative
Agent.

 (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender,
at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit
and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense (other than payment in full of such L/C
Borrowing) or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer
or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of
Credit; 
 (iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or
certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the
benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense (other than payment in full of such L/C Borrowing) available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event
of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its
correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree
that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or
inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent,
participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action
taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or 

  
 -37-









 
enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee
with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or
transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the
matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C
Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct
or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of
Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary,
and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 (g) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise
expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits,
as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. 
 (h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter
of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise
payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be payable, to the
maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(iv), with the balance of
such fee, if any, payable to the L/C Issuer for its own account. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with
Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of
Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of
Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
 (i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and
Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at a rate of 0.25% per annum, computed on the daily amount available to be
drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period
(or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily
amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the
customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due
and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
 (j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between
the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 

  
 -38-









 (k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of
Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The
Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

 2.04. Swing Line Loans. 
 (a) The Swing Line Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this
Section 2.04, may, in its sole discretion, make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any
time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line
Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Facility at such time, and (ii) the aggregate
Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender at such time, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans at such time shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment; and provided further that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing
Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each
Swing Line Loan shall bear interest only at a rate based on the Base Rate. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a
risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan. 
 (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone.
Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and
(ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, completed and signed
by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative
Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in
writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of the Required Lenders) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result
of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account
of the Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds. 
 (c) Refinancing of Swing Line
Loans. (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base
Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes
hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Facility and the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan 

  
 -39-









 
Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Loan Notice
available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative
Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to
the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If for
any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be
a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to
Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. 
 (iii) If any Lender fails to make
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in
Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the
date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with
respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Each Lender’s
obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including
(A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or
(C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

 (d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation
in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line
Lender. 
 (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is
required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing
Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest
on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable
Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 

  
 -40-

principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender. 
 2.05. Prepayments.

notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not
later than 11:00 a.m. (1) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (2) one Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (B) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall

less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such
Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage). If such notice is
given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued
interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each prepayment of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages. 
 (ii) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any
time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than

this Section 2.05(b)(i) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Facility then in effect. 
 (ii) Prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(i), first, shall be applied ratably to the L/C Borrowings and the Swing Line Loans, second, shall be applied ratably to the
outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, and, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied

(b) Mandatory. (i) If after giving effect to any reduction or termination of Commitments under this Section 2.06,
the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the Facility at such time, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, as the case may be, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. 

(ii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing within one Business Day of the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any
Intercompany Loan Refinancings by Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings. Within five Business Days of such receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, Borrower shall (in a written notice (the “Offer Notice”) delivered to the Administrative
Agent for further delivery to each Lender) offer to each Lender to reduce its Commitments in an amount equal to the product of (x) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times (y) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. Each Lender may

agree, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Loan Documents, to any such reduction and repayment.

participations of the Lenders in Swing Line Loans, Letters of Credit and L/C Borrowings shall be re-allocated based upon the Lenders’ Applicable Percentages after giving effect to such reduction. After giving effect thereto and to
Section 2.06(b)(i), to the extent that (A) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any

Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law.

 2.09. Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(h) and
(i): 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Fee Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Facility exceeds the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and
(ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.15. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the
conditions in Article IV are not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the
last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears. 
 (b) Other
Fees. (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not
be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders such fees (if any) as
shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 

2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans determined by reference to clause
(b) of the definition of Base Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days
elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion
thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the
Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 2.11. Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender
shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive
absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of
the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such
matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans
and payments with respect thereto. 
 (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a),
each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest
error.

 2.12. Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as
provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and
any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be
reflected on computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 
 (b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative
Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such
Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with
Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation,
plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans.
If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such
period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any
claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii)
Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders
or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the
date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall
be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to
the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to
the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender,
without interest. 

  
 -45-









 (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make
Revolving Credit Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such
participation or to make any payment under Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of
any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 11.04(c). 

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place
or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 (f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due
hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and
(ii) second, toward payment of principal and L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and L/C Borrowings then due to such parties. 

2.13. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of (a) Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and
payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of
the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lenders at such time or (b) Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time to
(ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Parties at such time) of payment on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided that: 

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

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of the
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in
Section 2.14, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or participant,
other than an assignment to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 
 Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may
exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. 

  
 -46-









 2.14. Cash Collateral. 

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (i) if the L/C Issuer has
honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the
Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the
Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the
Defaulting Lender). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of
(x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of
Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, to reimburse the L/C Issuer in respect of the foregoing. 

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be
maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as
collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.14(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash
Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby,
the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. 

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this
Section 2.14 or Section 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.15 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line
Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other
application of such property as may be provided for herein. 
 (d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion
thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting
Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 11.07(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral;
provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and, in such case, following application as provided in this
Section 2.14 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.03), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be
released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations. 

  
 -47-









 2.15. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,
then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in
Section 11.01. 
 (ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or
other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the
Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that
Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the
Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the
Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative
Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement;
sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that
Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its
appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to,
all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis based on the percentage that the amount of such Loans or L/C Borrowings of such Lender is of the aggregate amount of all such Loans or L/C Borrowings of all Non-Defaulting Lenders) prior to being
applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to
post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to
Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall (A) be required to pay to each Lender to which the Defaulting Lender’s Commitment to acquire, refinance or fund a
participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans has been re-allocated pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(iv) the amount of such fee based on its revised “Applicable Percentage” calculated in accordance with that Section
allocable to its Fronting Exposure arising from that Defaulting Lender or, to the extent not so reallocated, to the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (B) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that
otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.03(h). 

  
 -48-









 (iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting
Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans
pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such
reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund
participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of that Lender.

 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in
writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to
any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the
Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages
(without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of
the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver
or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 ARTICLE III

 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01. Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold
Payments on Account of Taxes. (i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws, be made free and clear of and without
deduction or withholding of any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require the applicable withholding agent to withhold or deduct any Tax (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent), such Tax shall be withheld
or deducted in accordance with such Laws. 
 (ii) If the applicable withholding agent shall be required to
withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) the applicable withholding agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are required, (B) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to
the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be
increased as necessary so that after any required withholding and deductions on account of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes have been made (including withholding and deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this
Section 3.01), the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower and Holdings. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the
Borrower and Holdings shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Laws. 
 (c) Indemnification. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Borrower and Holdings shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each
Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after a written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or 

  
 -49-









 
Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate setting forth the calculation of the amount of any such payment or liability and the reasons for such payment or liability in reasonable detail delivered to the Borrower and Holdings by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent),
or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d)
Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, such Loan Party shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by applicable Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 

(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower, Holdings and to the Administrative Agent, whenever reasonably requested by
the Borrower, Holdings or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Laws and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrower, Holdings or the Administrative Agent,
as the case may be, (A) to determine whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document are subject to Taxes, (B) to determine, if applicable, the required rate of withholding or deduction and (C) to establish
such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction of, applicable Taxes in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise to establish such Lender’s
status for withholding tax purposes in an applicable jurisdiction (including, in the case of a Lender seeking exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax under Sections 1471-1474 of the Code, any documentation necessary to prevent
withholding under Sections 1471-1474 of the Code (and any applicable regulations or official interpretations thereof) and to permit the Borrower to determine that such Lender has complied with any requirements under such provisions to avoid or
reduce withholding tax). 
 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed originals of IRS Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower,
Holdings or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and 
 (B) each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Code or any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any payments hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower, Holdings and the Administrative Agent (in such number of signed originals as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter (1) if any documentation previously delivered has expired or become obsolete or invalid or (2) upon the request of the Borrower, Holdings or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is
applicable: 
 (I) IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor thereto) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party, 
 (II) IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto), 

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Sections 881(c)
or 871(h) of the Code (the “Portfolio Interest Exemption”), (x) a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1, H-2, H-3 or H-4, as


  
 -50-









 
applicable (a “Tax Status Certificate”), to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code,
(B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower or Holdings within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and
that no interest to be received is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business and (y) duly completed and executed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor thereto), 

(IV) where such Lender is a partnership (for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or otherwise not a beneficial owner
(e.g., where such Lender has sold a typical participation), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto) and all required supporting documentation (including, where one or more of the underlying beneficial owner(s) is claiming the benefits of
the Portfolio Interest Exemption, a Tax Status Certificate of such beneficial owner(s) (provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and not a participating Lender, the Tax Status Certificate from the beneficial owner(s) may be provided by
the Foreign Lender on the beneficial owner(s) behalf)), or 
 (V) any other form prescribed by applicable Laws as
a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the Borrower, Holdings or the Administrative Agent to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 
 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower, Holdings and the
Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any documentation previously provided. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 3.01(e), no Lender shall be required to deliver any documentation that it is
not legally eligible to deliver. 
 (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender
determines, in its good faith sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 3.01 with respect to the
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the
relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to repay the amount paid over to any Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest
or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, or such Lender, in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such amount to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall
not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary, in no event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party the payment of which would place such Lender in a less favorable net after Tax position than such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or
additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid. 
 (g) Payment by
Administrative Agent. For purposes of this Section 3.01, any payment made by the Administrative Agent to a Lender shall be deemed to be a payment made by the Borrower to such Lender. 

3.02. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that
it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any
Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender
making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on 

  
 -51-









 
which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be
determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate
Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender
may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining
or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the
Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued
interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 
 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine
that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount
and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an
existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the
preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of
the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such
request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 
 3.04. Increased Costs.

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

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

(ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of
Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except, in each case, for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer); or 
 (iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of
Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining
any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any


  
 -52-









 
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital
Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding
capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of
this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such
Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such
Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for
Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of
this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law
giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then
the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 3.05.
Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it
as a result of: 
 (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate
Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount
notified by the Borrower; or 
 (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of
the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.13; 
 excluding any loss of
anticipated profits but including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall
also pay any customary and reasonable administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 

  
 -53-









 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this
Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London
interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
 3.06. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Designation
of Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.05, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for
funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate
or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject
such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b)
Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.01 (other than pursuant to Section 3.01(b)) or if a Lender gives notice pursuant to Section 3.02, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 11.14. 

3.07. Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the
Facility, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

8.02. Remedies upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the
request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions: 
 (a)
declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated; 

(b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other
amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; 

(c) require that the Borrower Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount
thereof); and 

  
 -85-









 (d) exercise on behalf of itself, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer all rights
and remedies available to it, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under the Loan Documents; 
 provided, however, that upon the
occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit
Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the
L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 8.03. Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations
have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.14 and 2.15, be
applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 
 First, to payment of that portion of the
Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its
capacity as such; 
 Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities
and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer (including fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the respective Lenders and the L/C Issuer arising under the Loan
Documents and, if necessary, one local counsel and one regulatory counsel in any jurisdiction, and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second
payable to them; 
 Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid
Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans, L/C Borrowings and other Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third
payable to them; 
 Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of
the Loans, L/C Borrowings and Obligations then owing under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements, ratably among the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, the Hedge Banks and the Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective
amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 
 Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the L/C Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.05(b)(ii)
and 2.14; and 
 Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to
the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 
 Subject to Sections 2.03(c) and 2.14, amounts used to Cash
Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all
Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent
has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a
party to the Credit Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding 

  
 -86-









 
sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX hereof for itself and its
Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto. 
 ARTICLE IX 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 9.01. Appointment and Authority. 
 (a) Each of the Lenders and the L/C
Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf
and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a
potential Hedge Bank and a potential Cash Management Bank) and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing
any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral
agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the
Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article XI (including
Section 11.04(c), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

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

9.03. Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth
herein, in the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary
rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby, by the other Loan Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of
the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein, in the other Loan Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its
counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement or applicable law; 

  
 -87-









 (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein, in the other Loan
Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as
the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 
 (d) shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary,
under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and
until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the L/C Issuer; and 
 (e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or
the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements
or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Intercreditor Agreement or any other
agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set
forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 9.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper
Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any
condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to
such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel,
accountants or experts. 
 9.05. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder, under any other Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement by or through any one or more co-agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any
such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the
Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

9.06. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders,
the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. If the Lender acting as Administrative Agent is replaced pursuant to Section 11.14, then such Lender shall be deemed to have submitted its resignation as Administrative Agent concurrent with such
replacement. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such
bank with an office in the United States; provided that, so long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall have the right to 

  
 -88-









 
approve (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) such successor (it being understood that such approval shall be deemed given if Borrower shall have not responded to a request for such
approval within 15 days after notice is given to the Borrower of the name of the successor the Required Lenders intend to appoint). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer and in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative
Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become
effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement (except that in the case of any
collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor
Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as
the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and the
Intercreditor Agreement (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed
between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.04 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent. 
 Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also
constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and
(iii) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume
the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 9.07. Non-Reliance on Administrative
Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or
any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document,
the Intercreditor Agreement or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 9.08. No Other
Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Book Managers or Lead Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or
the Intercreditor Agreement, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder. 
 9.09. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim . In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the
Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any
demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise 

  
 -89-









 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be reasonably necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C
Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts
due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.09 and 11.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and
11.04. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or
accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or in any such proceeding. 
 9.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Cash Management Bank and a potential Hedge Bank) and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document
(i) upon termination of the Facility and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations and (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge
Agreements) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer shall have been made), (ii) that is sold or to be
sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 11.01; 

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result
of a transaction permitted hereunder; and 
 (c) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by
the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(k). 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or
items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s
expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or
to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10. 

  
 -90-









 9.11. Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. No Cash
Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03, the Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to
consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder, under any other Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a
Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents or the Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required
to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements upon termination of the Facility. 

9.12. Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any
Lender an amount equal to any applicable withholding tax. If the IRS or any Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from any amount paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason
(including because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax
ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower or Holdings and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the
Borrower and Holdings to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties, additions to tax or interest thereto, together with all expenses incurred, including legal
expenses and any out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set
off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.12. The agreements in this
Section 9.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
Obligations. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such
Lender. 
 ARTICLE X 
 CONTINUING GUARANTY 
 10.01. Guaranty. Holdings hereby absolutely and
unconditionally guarantees, as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times
thereafter, of any and all of the Obligations, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, of the Borrower to the Secured Parties, and whether arising hereunder or under any other Loan
Document, any Secured Cash Management Agreement or any Secured Hedge Agreement (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Secured
Parties in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof). The Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon
Holdings, and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Obligations. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any
Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of
Holdings under this Guaranty, and Holdings hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing. 

  
 -91-









 10.02. Rights of Lenders. Holdings consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may,
at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or
the terms of the Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Obligations; (c) apply such security
and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the
Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Holdings consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Holdings under this Guaranty or which, but for this
provision, might operate as a discharge of Holdings. 
 10.03. Certain Waivers. Holdings waives (a) any defense
arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of the Borrower; (b) any defense based
on any claim that Holdings’ obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Holdings’ liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the
Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured
Party; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. Holdings expressly waives all
setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with
respect to the Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Obligations. 
 10.04. Obligations Independent. The obligations of Holdings hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Obligations and the obligations of any other
guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against Holdings to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party. 
 10.05. Subrogation. Holdings shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until
all of the Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) have been paid and performed in full in cash and the Commitments and
the Facility is terminated. If any amounts are paid to Holdings in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce
the amount of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 
 10.06. Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a
continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than obligations and liabilities under Secured
Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) are paid in full in cash and the Commitments are terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any
payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or Holdings is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated,
declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior
revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of Holdings under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 10.07. Subordination. Holdings hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to Holdings, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not
limited to any obligation of the Borrower to Holdings as subrogee of the Secured Parties or resulting from Holdings’ performance 

  
 -92-









 
under this Guaranty, to the payment in full in cash of all Obligations (other than obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements). If the
Secured Parties so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrower to Holdings shall be enforced and performance received by Holdings as trustee for the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Secured Parties
on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Holdings under this Guaranty. 

10.08. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed, in connection with any
case commenced by or against Holdings or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Holdings immediately upon demand by the Secured Parties. 

10.09. Condition of Borrower. Holdings acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of,
obtaining from the Borrower and any other guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other guarantor as Holdings requires, and that none of the Secured Parties has any duty,
and Holdings is not relying on the Secured Parties at any time, to disclose to Holdings any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any other guarantor (Holdings waiving any duty on the part of the
Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same). 
 ARTICLE XI

 MISCELLANEOUS 
 11.01. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any
other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be
effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to
Section 8.02) without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article IV or of any Default is not considered an extension or increase in Commitments
of any Lender); 
 (b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment
(excluding mandatory prepayments) of principal, interest or fees due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under such other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender entitled to such payment; 

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or (subject to clause
(iv) of the second proviso to this Section 11.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender entitled to such amount; provided, however, that
only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (i) to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest or Letter of Credit Fees at the Default Rate or (ii) to amend
any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Borrowing or to reduce any fee payable hereunder; 

(d) change Section 8.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without
the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
 (e) change any provision of this
Section 11.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or
grant any consent hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 

  
 -93-









 (f) release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or
series of related transactions, without the written consent of each Lender; or 
 (g) release all or
substantially all of the value of the Guaranty, without the written consent of each Lender, except to the extent the release of any Subsidiary from the Guaranty is permitted pursuant to Section 9.10 (in which case such release may be
made by the Administrative Agent acting alone); 
 and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall,
unless in writing and signed by the L/C Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it;
(ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no amendment,
waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Intercreditor
Agreement; (iv) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto; and (v) any amendment, waiver or consent of the Intercreditor Agreement shall only require the
consent of any Loan Party to the extent required pursuant to the terms thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any
amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any
Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender
more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 If any Lender (other than any
Lender who was a Lender on the Closing Date or any Lender who is an Affiliate of such a Lender) does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement that requires the
consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 11.13; provided that such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be
effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this paragraph). 
 11.02. Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communications.

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereunder may be delivered or
furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the
Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures 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

(i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY
DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR
FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent
Parties”) have any liability to Holdings, the Borrower, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the
Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to Holdings, the Borrower, any Lender,
the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 
 (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and
other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number,
telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of
such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public
Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the

 11.03. Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and Lenders. The Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were
not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on
behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

11.04. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to
exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, under any other Loan Document or the Intercreditor Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other
Loan Document and the Intercreditor Agreement, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties
or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the
benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in
its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (d) any Lender
from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person
acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to
the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized
by the Required Lenders. 
 11.05. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the
preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof; provided that under
this Section 11.05(a) the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse the expenses of more than one firm of counsel to the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, plus, if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each applicable
jurisdiction and one regulatory counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, (ii) all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit
or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer (including the reasonable and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of any
one counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any jurisdiction and one regulatory counsel in any jurisdiction), in connection with the enforcement or protection
of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including
all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

  
 -96-









 (b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative
Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the L/C Issuer, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any
other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Intercreditor Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the
performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related
Parties only, the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to
honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous
Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any of the Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s
directors, shareholders or creditors, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under subsection
(a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent), the L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided
that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or
against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions
of Section 2.12(d). 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Intercreditor Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of
the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such
Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Intercreditor Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for
direct or actual damages resulting from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 30 Business Days after demand therefor.


  
 -97-









 (f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Facility and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

11.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the
L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not
been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under
clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 11.07. Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns
Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of
its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.07(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.07(d), or (iii) by way of
pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 11.07(f) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied,
shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 11.07(b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum
Amounts. 
 (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment and the Revolving Credit Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

(B) In any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for
this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the
Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless each of
the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments
to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of
determining whether such minimum amount has been met. 

  
 -98-









 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as
an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the
Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans. 
 (iii) Required
Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; 
 (B) the
consent of the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an
Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; 
 (C) the consent of the L/C Issuer
(such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).

 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and
recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any
of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person. 

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting
Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate
amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all
payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable
Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,


  
 -99-









 
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall
execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 11.07(d). 
 (c)
Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption
delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal and interest amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to
time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the
terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Registrar information regarding the designation, and revocation of
designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights
and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such
Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this
Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections, including the documentation requirements of
Section 3.01(e)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its participating interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.07(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this
purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower and Holdings (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and interest amounts) 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 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. 
 (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

 (f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its
rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, 

  
 -100-









 
including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (g) Resignation as L/C Issuer or
Swing Line Lender After Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 11.07(b), Bank of America
may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line
Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the
resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of
Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective
date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or
Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall
issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to
such Letters of Credit. 
 11.08. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors,
officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent
required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder, under any other Loan Document, the Intercreditor
Agreement or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section,
to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or
any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the
confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person
would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer
acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information
and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 

  
 -101-









 The Schedules to this Agreement shall be provided to the Administrative Agent and may be
viewed by any other Secured Party at the offices of the Administrative Agent upon request. 
 11.09. Right of Setoff. If
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and
apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or
for the credit or the account of the Borrower or Holdings against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or Holdings now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such obligations
of the Borrower or Holdings are due and payable, but irrespective of whether they are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights
of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender
and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.09, if at any time any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates maintains one or more deposit accounts for the Borrower or any other Loan Party into which Medicare
and/or Medicaid receivables are deposited, such Person shall waive the right of setoff set forth herein. 
 11.10. Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the
“Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal
parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 
 11.11. Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or
written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 11.12. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or
unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

  
 -102-









 11.13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or
the Intercreditor Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement shall not be
affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 11.13, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 
 11.14. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04 or 3.05, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives any notice under Section 3.02, or a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed
change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document that has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 11.01 but requires unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby
(as applicable) or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such
Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.07), all of its interests, rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: 

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee specified in Section 11.07(b); 

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued
interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from
a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and 
 (e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the
applicable replacement bank, financial institution or Fund consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; provided that the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall
not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans pursuant to this
Section 11.14 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment and Assumption. 
 A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such
assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 11.15. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.


  
 -103-









 (b) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND HOLDINGS IRREVOCABLY AND
UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE
COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES
THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL
JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT
THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWER OR HOLDINGS OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY
JURISDICTION. 
 (c) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH OF THE BORROWER AND HOLDINGS IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN
PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT.

 (d) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR
NOTICES IN SECTION 11.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 
 11.16. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING
DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 11.17. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification
hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Borrower and Holdings acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the
Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers, on the other hand,
(B) each of the Borrower and Holdings has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each of the Borrower and Holdings is capable of evaluating, and understands and
accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers each is and has been acting


  
 -104-









 
solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, Holdings
or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arrangers has any obligation to the Borrower, Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions
that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lead Arrangers has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, Holdings or
any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and Holdings hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers and the other Lead
Arranger(s) with respect to any breach or alleged breach (in each case, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct) of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. Holdings acknowledges
that one or more Affiliates of Barclays Capital (“Barclays”), the investment banking division of Barclays Bank PLC has been retained by Holdings as a buy-side financial advisor (in such capacity, the “Borrower Financial
Advisor”) in connection with the Transaction. Each of the Borrower and Holdings agrees not to assert any claim it might allege based on any actual or potential conflict of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one
hand, the engagement of the Borrower Financial Advisor and, on the other hand, Barclays’ or its Affiliates’ relationship with Holdings as described and referred to herein. Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement is intended
to, or shall, diminish the obligations or liabilities of the parties under the engagement letter agreement among the Sponsor and one or more Affiliates and one or more Affiliates of Barclays Capital as a buy-side financial advisor in connection with
the Transaction. 
 11.18. Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words
“execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic
signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent
and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act. 
 11.19. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the
Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information
includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request
by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and
anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

 Form of Guaranty 








 GUARANTY 
 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and in consideration of credit and/or financial accommodation heretofore or hereafter from time to time made or granted to C.P. ATLAS
ACQUISITION CORP. (the “Borrower”) which shall be merged with and into AMERICAN RENAL HOLDINGS INC. (the “Company”) on the Closing Date by BANK OF AMERICA, N.A. (the “Administrative Agent”) and the
other Secured Parties, the undersigned Guarantors (whether one or more the “Guarantor”, and if more than one jointly and severally) hereby furnishes its guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations (as hereinafter defined) as set forth
below. 
 Reference is made to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 7, 2010 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise
modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, each lender from time to time party thereto (the “Lenders”)
and the other parties thereto. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein (including, without limitation, the term “Obligations”, as used in Section 1 and elsewhere herein) are used with the meanings assigned to such terms in the
Credit Agreement. 
 1. Guaranty. The Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guaranty of
payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Obligations
whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, of the Borrower to the Secured Parties, and whether arising under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document, or under any Secured Cash
Management Agreement or any Secured Hedge Agreement (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with the
collection or enforcement thereof), and whether recovery upon such indebtedness and liabilities may be or hereafter become unenforceable or shall be an allowed or disallowed claim under any proceeding or case commenced by or against the Guarantor or
the Borrower under the Debtor Relief Laws, and including interest that accrues after the commencement by or against the Borrower of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The
Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon the Guarantor for the purpose of establishing the amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations and conclusive absent manifest error. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed
Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense (other than
a defense of payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations) to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of
the foregoing. 







 2. Rights of Lenders. The Guarantor consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may,
at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or
the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations;
(c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other
guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of the Guarantor
under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of the Guarantor. 
 3. Certain
Waivers. The Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of
the liability of the Borrower; (b) any defense based on any claim that the Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Guarantor’s
liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the Borrower, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any
right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the
liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. The Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices
of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed
Obligations. 
 4. Obligations Independent. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and
not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against the Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person
or entity is joined as a party. 
 5. Subrogation. The Guarantor shall not exercise any right of subrogation,
contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than obligations and liabilities under
Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) have been paid and performed in full in cash and the Commitments and the Facility are terminated. If any amounts are paid to the Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation,
then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 







 6. Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty
of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash
management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements) are paid in full in cash and the Commitments are terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment
by or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantor is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection
with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any
prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of the Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 7. Subordination. The Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower owing to the Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but
not limited to any obligation of the Borrower to the Guarantor as subrogee of the Secured Parties or resulting from the Guarantor’s performance under this Guaranty, to the payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than
obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements). If the Secured Parties so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrower to the Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by
the Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Secured Parties on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantor under this
Guaranty. 
 8. Stay of Acceleration. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against the Guarantor or the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor immediately upon demand by the
Secured Parties. 
 9. Expenses. The Guarantor shall pay all reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer (including the reasonable and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of any one counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one
local counsel in any jurisdiction and one regulatory counsel in any jurisdiction), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights under this Guaranty. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the resignation of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Guaranty and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Guaranteed Obligations 

10. Miscellaneous. No provision of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified, except by a written instrument
executed by the Administrative Agent 







 
and the Guarantor (with the consent of the Lenders or the Required Lenders if required under the Credit Agreement). No failure by Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any
right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.
The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or in equity. The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of this Guaranty shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision
herein. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Guarantor in writing, this Guaranty is not intended to supersede or otherwise affect any other guaranty now or hereafter given by the Guarantor for the benefit of the Secured
Parties or any term or provision thereof. 
 11. Guarantor Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any
Person of a Guaranty Supplement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Guarantor Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Guarantor” and shall become and
be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guaranty to a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be
a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and (b) each reference herein to “this Guaranty”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, and each reference in any other Loan Document to
the “Guaranty”, “thereunder”, “thereof” or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, shall mean and be a reference to this Guaranty as supplemented by such Guaranty Supplement. 

12. Other Guarantors. To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required hereunder to pay a portion of the Guaranteed
Obligations exceeding the greater of (a) the amount of the economic benefit actually received by such Guarantor from the Loans and (b) the amount such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of
the Guaranteed Obligations (excluding the amount thereof repaid by the Borrower) in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s net worth at the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors (taken
together with the aggregate net worth of all other “Guarantors” (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement) obligated with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (the “Other Guarantors”)) at the date of
enforcement is sought hereunder, then each Other Guarantor shall reimburse such other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worths of such Other Guarantors at the date enforcement hereunder is sought.

 13. Condition of Borrower. The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has
adequate means of, obtaining from the Borrower and any other guarantor such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of the Borrower and any such other guarantor as the Guarantor requires, and that none of the Secured
Parties has any duty, and the Guarantor is not relying on the Secured Parties at any time, to disclose to the Guarantor any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of the Borrower or any other guarantor (the Guarantor
waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same). 







 14. Setoff. If and to the extent any payment is not made when due hereunder, the
Administrative Agent may setoff and charge from time to time any amount so due against any or all of the Guarantor’s accounts or deposits with the Administrative Agent. 
 15. Representations and Warranties. Each of the representations set forth in Credit Agreement set forth in Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03 and 5.04 of the Credit Agreement,
insofar as they relate directly to any Guarantor, are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties
expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date. 
 16. Indemnification and Survival. Without limitation on any other obligations of the Guarantor or remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Guaranty, the Guarantor shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Secured Parties from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and the allocated
cost and disbursements of internal legal counsel) that may be suffered or incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with or as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms. The obligations of the Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty. 

17. GOVERNING LAW. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 18. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO
THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND
DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN
OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS GUARANTY SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE L/C ISSUER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AGAINST THE GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 
 19. WAIVER OF
VENUE. THE GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY 







 
APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION
18. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 

20. SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN
SECTION 11.02 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT. NOTHING IN THIS GUARANTY WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

 ARTICLE III 
 PERFECTION; SUPPLEMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES; 

USE OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL 
 SECTION 3.1. Delivery of Certificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all certificates or instruments representing or evidencing the Securities Collateral in
existence on the date hereof have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank and that the Administrative Agent will have a
perfected first priority security interest therein upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 4 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that all certificates or instruments representing or
evidencing Securities Collateral acquired by such Pledgor after the date hereof shall promptly (but in any event within fifteen days after receipt thereof by such Pledgor, or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole
discretion) be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto. All 

  
 -10-









 
certificated Securities Collateral shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to
register in the name of the Administrative Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral, without any indication that such Securities Collateral is subject to the security interest hereunder. In
addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates representing or evidencing Securities Collateral for certificates of smaller or
larger denominations. 
 SECTION 3.2. Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and
warrants that the Administrative Agent has a perfected first priority security interest in all uncertificated Pledged Securities pledged by it hereunder that are in existence on the date hereof. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that if any of the Pledged
Securities of a Wholly Owned Subsidiary that constitute “Securities” as defined in Section 8-102(a)(15) of the UCC are at any time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, cause the issuer to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged Securities substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto or such other form that is reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 3.3. Financing Statements and Other Filings; Maintenance of Perfected
Security Interest. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all financing statements, agreements, instruments and other documents necessary to perfect the security interest granted by it to the Administrative Agent on the date hereof in respect
of the Pledged Collateral have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in completed and duly executed form for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 4 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Pledgor
agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such Pledgor will, at the request of the Admninistrative Agent, maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected first priority security
interest subject only to Liens permitted under Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement (“Permitted Liens”). 
 SECTION 3.4. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Administrative Agent to enforce, the Administrative Agent’s security
interest in the Pledged Collateral, each Pledgor represents and warrants (as to itself) as follows and agrees, in each case at such Pledgor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Pledged Collateral:

 (a) Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. As of the date hereof, no amounts payable in excess of
$500,000 (or solely with respect to intercompany Indebtedness of the Pledgors, no amounts payable) under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral are evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, other than such Instruments and
Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 8 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Instrument and each item of Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 8 

  
 -11-









 
to the Perfection Certificate has been properly endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank. If any
amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper
not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, exceeds $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors (provided that solely with respect to intercompany Indebtedness of the Pledgors, such minimum threshold shall not apply), the Pledgor
acquiring such Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper shall promptly (but in any event within 15 days after receipt thereof or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) endorse, assign and deliver the same to
the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 

(b) Deposit Accounts. As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any Deposit Accounts other than Excluded Deposit
Accounts and those accounts listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate. The Administrative Agent has a security interest in each such Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts), which security interest, when required by
Section 6.17 of the Credit Agreement, will be perfected by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Deposit Account unless (1) it shall have given the Administrative Agent 10 days’ prior written notice of its
intention to establish such new Deposit Account with a Bank and (2) such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account. The
Administrative Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Administrative Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with
respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and notice shall have been given by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights. Each
Pledgor agrees that once the Administrative Agent sends an instruction or notice to a Bank exercising its Control over any Deposit Account (other than Excluded Deposit Accounts) (with a copy of such instruction or notice to the Borrower) such
Pledgor shall not give any instructions or orders with respect to such Deposit Account including, without limitation, instructions for distribution or transfer of any funds in such Deposit Account. No Pledgor shall grant Control of any Deposit
Account to any person other than the Administrative Agent and the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 (c) Securities
Accounts and Commodity Accounts. (i) As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts other than those listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate. The Administrative Agent has a security
interest in each such Securities Account and Commodity Account, which security interest, when required by Section 6.17 of the Credit Agreement, will be perfected by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities
Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) it shall have given the Administrative Agent 10 days’ prior written notice of its 

  
 -12-









 
intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary and (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity
Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment
Property in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and within one (1) Business Day of actual receipt thereof, deposit any and all cash and Investment Property received by it into a Deposit Account or Securities Account subject to
Administrative Agent’s Control. The Administrative Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Administrative Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities
Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such investment
and withdrawal rights, would occur, and notice shall have been given by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights. Each Pledgor agrees that once the Administrative Agent sends an instruction or notice to a
Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary exercising its Control over any Securities Account and Commodity Account (with a copy of such instruction or notice to the Borrower) such Pledgor shall not give any instructions or orders with
respect to such Securities Account and Commodity Account including, without limitation, instructions for investment, distribution or transfer of any Investment Property or Financial Asset maintained in such Securities Account or Commodity Account.
No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property to any person other than the Administrative Agent and the Notes Collateral Agent. 
 (ii) As between the Administrative Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to,
or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a Security Entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the Control of, the Administrative Agent, a Securities Intermediary, a Commodity
Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person. 
 (d) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records.
As of the date hereof, no amount under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral is evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record” (as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction) other than such Electronic Chattel Paper and transferable records, (i) listed in
Schedule 8 to the Perfection Certificate or (ii) whose value does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic
Chattel Paper or any transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and shall take such action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request
to vest in the Administrative Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control under 

  
 -13-









 
Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in
such jurisdiction, or such transferable record. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record in which the
Administrative Agent has not been vested control within the meaning of the statutes described in the immediately preceding sentence, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. The Administrative Agent agrees with such Pledgor that
the Administrative Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Administrative Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations
to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic
Chattel Paper or transferable record. 
 (e) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a
beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Pledgor that is not a Supporting Obligation, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the
Administrative Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, either (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such Letter of Credit to
consent to an assignment to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such
Letter of Credit, with the Administrative Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be paid to the applicable Pledgor unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The actions in
the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the aggregate amount of all other Letters of Credit for which the actions described above in clauses (i) and (ii) have
not been taken, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 
 (f) Commercial Tort Claims.
As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims other than those listed in Schedule 10 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial
Tort Claim, such Pledgor shall promptly (but in any event within 15 days or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree, in its sole discretion) notify the Administrative Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details
thereof and grant to the Administrative Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim, together with the amount of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in which the Administrative Agent does not
have a security interest, does not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors.

 SECTION 3.5. Joinder of Additional Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause each
Subsidiary of the Borrower which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto, within thirty (30) days of the date on which it was acquired or created and, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary
shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not
require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the
Administrative Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as may be necessary or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to create, perfect, preserve and
protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity,
enforceability and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Pledged Collateral,
including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest
created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office)
wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Administrative
Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits
and proceedings as the Administrative Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in or the perfection thereof in the Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the
sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. 
 ARTICLE IV 
 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 
 Each Pledgor represents, warrants and
covenants as follows:

benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and 

  
 -15-









 
Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns and has rights in each item of Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder, free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others, except for minor defects in
title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes or where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. In addition, no Liens or claims exist on the Securities Collateral, other than Permitted Collateral Liens. 
 SECTION 4.2. Validity of Security Interest. The security interest in and Lien on the Pledged Collateral granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder

SECTION 4.3. Defense of Claims; Transferability of Pledged Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, take any
and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Administrative Agent except with respect to such Pledged Collateral
that such Pledgor determines in its reasonable business judgment is no longer necessary or beneficial to the conduct of such Pledgor’s business, and the priority thereof against any Lien not other than Permitted Liens, at its own cost and
expense, subject to the rights of such Pledgor under Section 9.10 of the Credit Agreement and corresponding provisions of the Loan Documents to obtain a release of the Liens created under the Loan Documents. 

SECTION 4.4. Other Financing Statements. It has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file, any valid or effective

the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to such Permitted Lien. No Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar
statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the
security interests granted by such Pledgor to the holder of the Permitted Liens.

SECTION 4.7. Consents, etc. In the event that the Administrative Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual
rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent,
such Pledgor agrees to use its best efforts to assist and aid the Administrative Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

complete in all material respects. 
 SECTION 4.9. Insurance. In the event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are
paid to any Pledgor after the Administrative Agent has exercised its right to foreclose after an Event of Default and after notice thereof is given to the Pledgors by the Administrative Agent, such proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of
the Administrative Agent and promptly after receipt thereof shall be paid to the Administrative Agent upon demand for application in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

Pledgors that their rights under this Section 5.2(a) are being suspended: 
 (i) Each Pledgor shall be
entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms or purposes hereof, the Credit Agreement or any other document evidencing

(ii) Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and to utilize free and clear of the Lien hereof, any and all
Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and applicable law; provided, however, that any and all such Distributions consisting of rights or

without further action or formality to have granted to each Pledgor all necessary consents relating to voting rights and shall, if necessary, upon written request of any Pledgor and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, from time to
time execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in order to permit such Pledgor to exercise the voting and other rights which it is entitled to exercise

Distributions. 
 (c) Each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent instruments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to permit the Administrative Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i)
hereof and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under Section 5.2(b)(ii) hereof.

 ARTICLE VI 
 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL 
 PROPERTY COLLATERAL 

SECTION 6.1. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent, during the continuance
of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX hereof at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to
the Administrative Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be
located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. Nothing in this Section 6.1 shall require Pledgors to
grant any license that is prohibited by any requirement of law, or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or gives rise to any right of acceleration, modification or cancellation under any
Contract (for as long as, such prohibition is not terminated or rendered unenforceable or otherwise deemed ineffective by the Uniform Commercial Code, any other requirement of law or principles of equity); provided, further, that such
licenses to be granted hereunder with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks.

 SECTION 6.2. Protection of Administrative Agent’s Security. Except where the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, on a continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Administrative
Agent of any adverse determination in any proceeding in any federal, state or local court or administrative body or in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office regarding any Material Intellectual Property
Collateral, such Pledgor’s right to register such Material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) maintain all Material Intellectual Property Collateral as
presently used and operated, (iii) not permit to lapse or become abandoned any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, and not settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any such
Material Intellectual Property Collateral, in either case except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) following such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing
of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of any Material Intellectual Property Collateral or the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent in relation thereto including a levy or
threat of levy or any legal process against any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, (v) not license any Intellectual Property Collateral other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of
business, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property
Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral created therein hereby, without the consent 

  
 -20-









 
of the Administrative Agent, (vi) diligently keep adequate records respecting all Intellectual Property Collateral and (vii) furnish to the Administrative Agent from time to time upon
the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request therefor, reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the United States federal registered and applied for Intellectual Property Collateral and such other
materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property Collateral. 
 SECTION 6.3. After-Acquired
Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time after the date hereof (i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any
renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, or if any intent-to use trademark application
is no longer subject to clause (vi) of the definition of “Excluded Property,” the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall automatically
constitute Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any
party. Each Pledgor shall promptly provide to the Administrative Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i) and
(ii) above by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, preserve, protect or perfect the Administrative
Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Administrative Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules 9(a) and 9(b) to the Perfection Certificate to include
any Intellectual Property Collateral that is registered, or whose registration has been applied for, with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office) of such Pledgor acquired or arising
after the date hereof. 
 SECTION 6.4. Litigation. Except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to
have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, each Pledgor agrees to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair
competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Material Intellectual Property Collateral owned by such Pledgor. 
 SECTION 6.5. Permitted Disposal of Intellectual Property Collateral. Nothing in this Agreement prevents any Pledgor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, failing to pursue or
otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate or put into the public domain any of its Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement if such Pledgor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such action is
desirable in the conduct of its business.

 ARTICLE VII 
 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING RECEIVABLES 
 SECTION 7.1. Maintenance of
Records. Each Pledgor shall keep and maintain at its own cost and expense complete records of each Receivable, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all
merchandise returned and all other documentation relating thereto. Each Pledgor shall, at such Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, upon the Administrative Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Receivables, including all documents evidencing Receivables and any books and records relating thereto to the Administrative Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and
records may be retained by such Pledgor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor’s books, records, credit information, reports,
memoranda and all other writings relating to the Receivables to and for the use by any person that has acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Receivables or the Administrative Agent’s security interest therein without
the consent of any Pledgor. 
 SECTION 7.2. Legend. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default and upon the Administrative Agent’s request, each Pledgor shall legend, at the request of the Administrative Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Receivables and the other books, records and
documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining to the Receivables with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Administrative
Agent has a security interest therein. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 TRANSFERS 
 SECTION 8.1. Transfers of Pledged Collateral. No Pledgor shall
sell, convey, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

ARTICLE IX 

REMEDIES 

SECTION 9.1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may from
time to time exercise in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies: 

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, from
any Pledgor or any other person who then 

  
 -22-









 
has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located, remove
such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other
facilities of any Pledgor; 
 (ii) Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable
or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such
agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Administrative Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided,
however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Administrative Agent; 

(iii) Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license
to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 

(iv) Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the
same to the Administrative Agent at any place or places so designated by the Administrative Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the
Administrative Agent and therewith delivered to the Administrative Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Administrative Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Administrative Agent and
(C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to
deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific
performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 
 (v) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other
property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

(vi) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

  
 -23-









 (vii) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the
Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and 

(viii) Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, and the Administrative Agent may
also, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or
at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Administrative Agent
or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making
settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the
Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of
any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter
enacted. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time
by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the
Administrative Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public
sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one offeree. 
 SECTION 9.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten
(10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No
notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 

SECTION 9.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or
judicial hearing in connection with the Administrative Agent’s taking possession or the Administrative Agent’s disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any


  
 -24-









 
prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:
(i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Administrative Agent’s rights hereunder and
(iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this
Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest
all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or
attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. 
 SECTION 9.4. Certain Sales of Pledged Collateral. 
 (a) Each Pledgor
recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to
limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale
without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Administrative
Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 
 (b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions
contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws, the Administrative Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who
will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may
be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Administrative Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and,
notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to
delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state
securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, cause any registration, 

  
 -25-









 
qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the
sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and
compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in
effect), qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Administrative Agent
to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Administrative Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents
incident thereto as the Administrative Agent from time to time may reasonably request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Administrative Agent and all others participating in the distribution
of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like)
or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 

(d) If the Administrative Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property,
upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Administrative Agent all such information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number of securities included in the
Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Administrative Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in
effect. 
 (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will
cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every
covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a
defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 SECTION 9.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

 (a) No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the
part of the Administrative Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Administrative Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein
provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 

  
 -26-









 (b) In the event that the Administrative Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Administrative Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged
Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 

SECTION 9.6. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, upon the written demand of the Administrative Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights and Goodwill and such other
documents as are necessary to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Administrative Agent, each Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the
Administrative Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor’s employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to permit such Pledgor to
continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights, and each Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such
persons available to perform their prior functions on the Administrative Agent’s behalf. 
 ARTICLE X 

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 
 SECTION 10.1. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Pledged
Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Administrative Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement. 

ARTICLE XI 

MISCELLANEOUS 

SECTION 11.1. Concerning Administrative Agent. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent has been appointed as Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Administrative Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit
Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, 

  
 -27-









 
and to take or refrain from taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent
may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Administrative Agent may resign and a successor Administrative
Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become
vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any
retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Administrative Agent. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral
in its possession if such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, generally accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it
being understood that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating
to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any
Pledged Collateral. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate,
order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice
of counsel selected by it. 
 (d) If any item of Pledged Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Administrative
Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or
instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the provisions hereof shall control. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent may
rely on advice of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in Section 6.02(g) of the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide
information to the Administrative Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor’s property
constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Administrative Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Administrative
Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Administrative Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor. 

  
 -28-









 SECTION 11.2. Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Liens and security interests granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder are subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. In the
event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. 
 THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT DATED AS OF MAY 7, 2010 (AS AMENDED, SUPPLEMENTED OR OTHERWISE MODIFIED FROM TIME TO TIME), AMONG C.P. ATLAS
ACQUISITION CORP. (TO BE MERGED WITH AND INTO AMERICAN RENAL HOLDINGS INC.), THE GRANTORS PARTY THERETO, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., AS CREDIT AGREEMENT ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, WILMINGTON TRUST FSB, AS SENIOR SECURED NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT AND EACH
ADDITIONAL NOTES COLLATERAL AGENT FROM TIME TO TIME PARTY THERETO. 
 SECTION 11.3. Administrative Agent May Perform;
Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall in no event be bound
to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement.
Any and all amounts so expended by the Administrative Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.05 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.3 nor any action
taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.3 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event
of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time to take any action and to
execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Administrative Agent shall not
be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the
term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 

SECTION 11.4. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Pledged
Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon 

  
 -29-









 
the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent
and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the
benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Secured Party that is a party to a Secured Hedging Agreement or a Secured Cash
Management Agreements, such Secured Hedging Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, as applicable. Each of the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be
reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of all or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise.

 SECTION 11.5. Termination; Release. When all the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments of the Lenders
to make any Loan or to issue any Letter of Credit under the Credit Agreement shall have expired or been sooner terminated and all Letters of Credit have been terminated or cash collateralized in accordance with the provisions of the Credit
Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the
provisions of the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or
warranty by the Administrative Agent except as to the fact that the Administrative Agent has not encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of
the Administrative Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or
releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case may be. 
 SECTION 11.6.
Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with
the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any
Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other document
evidencing the Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

  
 -30-









 SECTION 11.7. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement,
any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower set forth in the
Credit Agreement and as to the Administrative Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to
delivery with the terms of this Section 11.7. 
 SECTION 11.8. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service
of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. Sections 11.15 and 11.16 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. 

SECTION 11.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.10. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or
supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall
constitute one and the same agreement. 
 SECTION 11.11. Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided
in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with
the same force and effect as if made on such other day. 
 SECTION 11.12. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition.
Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the
terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof. 
 SECTION 11.13.
No Claims Against Administrative Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Administrative Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any
materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or
other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Administrative Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other
property is prior to the Lien hereof. 

  
 -31-









 SECTION 11.14. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, nor the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed
under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe
any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor
relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection
herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged
Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract,
agreement or other document included in the Pledged Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.14 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations
under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 11.15. Obligations Absolute. All

ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 Opinion Matters–Counsel to Loan Parties 








 May 7, 2010 
 Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative 
 Agent under the Credit Agreement,
as hereinafter 
 defined (the “Administrative Agent”) 

and 
 The Lenders listed on
Schedule I hereto 
  

					
		 	 Re:    Credit Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”), among C.P.
Atlas Intermediate Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holdings”), C.P. Atlas Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”; to be merged with and into American Renal Holdings Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”)), the lending institutions identified in the Credit Agreement (the “Lenders”) and the Administrative Agent
	 	

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 We have acted as counsel to Holdings, the Borrower, the Company, the subsidiaries of Holdings named on Part A of Schedule II attached hereto (the “Delaware Subsidiaries”) and the
subsidiaries of Holdings named on Part B of Schedule II attached hereto (the “Texas Subsidiaries” and, together with the Delaware Subsidiaries, each a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and collectively, the “Subsidiary
Guarantors”; Holdings, the Borrower, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors are referred to herein collectively as the “Credit Parties”) in connection with the preparation, execution and delivery of the following
documents: 
 (i) the Credit Agreement; 
 (ii) the Guaranty; 
 (iii) the promissory note delivered to Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association pursuant to the Credit Agreement on the date hereof; 









					
		 	-3-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 (iv) the Security Agreement; 

(v) the Trademark Security Agreement in respect of United States Trademark registrations and applications, dated as of the date hereof,
between American Renal Associates LLC (“ARA LLC”) and the Administrative Agent (the “Trademark Security Agreement”); and 
 (vi) the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 The documents described in the foregoing
clauses (i) through (vi) are collectively referred to herein as the “Credit Documents”, and the documents described in the foregoing clauses (iv) and (v) are collectively referred to herein as the
“Security Documents”. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used but not defined herein or in the schedules hereto shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement. This opinion is delivered to you
pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(viii) of the Credit Agreement. 
 We have examined the following: 

the Credit Agreement, signed by each Credit Party that is a party thereto and by the Administrative Agent and certain of the Lenders;

 each other Credit Document, signed by each Credit Party that is a party thereto; 

forms of the Notes to be delivered to the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement after the date hereof; and 

unfiled copies of the financing statements listed on Schedule III attached hereto (the “Delaware Financing
Statements”), naming the Credit Parties indicated on such Schedule III as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured party, which we understand will be filed in the Office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the
“Delaware Filing Office”). 
 In addition, we have examined, and have relied as to matters of fact upon, the
documents delivered to you at the closing, and upon originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such corporate and limited liability company records, agreements, documents and other instruments and such certificates or comparable
documents of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Credit Parties, and have made such other investigations, as we have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions










					
		 	-4-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 
hereinafter set forth. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In addition, we have relied as to certain matters of fact
upon the representations made in the Credit Documents. 
 In addition, we have assumed that (1) the Credit Parties have
rights in the Collateral existing on the date hereof and will have rights in property which becomes Collateral after the date hereof and (2) “value” (as defined in Section 1-201(44) of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect on
the date hereof in the State of New York (the “New York UCC”)) has been given by the Lenders to the Credit Parties for the security interests and other rights in the Collateral. 

In rendering the opinion set forth in paragraph 5 below with respect to the forms of Notes, we have assumed that at the time of any
execution and delivery of Notes after the date hereof, the Board of Directors of the Borrower (or any committee thereof acting pursuant to authority properly delegated to such committee by the Board of Directors) has not taken any action to rescind
or otherwise reduce the prior authorization of the issuance of such Notes. 
 Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and
subject to the qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 
 Each of Holdings
and the Borrower (a) has been duly incorporated or formed, as applicable. 
 Each of Holdings, the Borrower,
the Company and each Delaware Subsidiary (a) is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation or limited liability company, as applicable, under the law of the State of Delaware, (b) has the corporate or limited liability company
power and authority, as applicable, to execute and deliver each of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and to 









					
		 	-5-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 
borrow and perform its obligations thereunder and to grant the security interests to be granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party and (c) has duly
authorized, executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party. 
 The execution and delivery by
each Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, the Borrower’s borrowings in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the performance of each such Credit Party’s payment obligations under the Credit Documents
and the granting of the security interests to be granted by each such Credit Party pursuant to the Security Documents to which it is a party (a) will not result in any violation of (1) the certificate of incorporation or by-laws or
the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of such Credit Party (other than the Texas Subsidiaries, as to which we express no opinion) or (2) assuming that proceeds of borrowings will be used in accordance with the
terms of the Credit Agreement, any federal or New York statute, the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or any rule or regulation issued pursuant to any federal or New York statute, the Delaware General
Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act or any order known to us issued by any court or governmental agency or body and (b) will not breach or result in a default under or result in the creation of any lien upon or
security interest in any Credit Party’s properties pursuant to the terms of any agreement or instrument identified on Schedule IV hereto. 
 No consent, approval, authorization, order, filing, registration or qualification of or with any federal or New York governmental agency or body or any Delaware governmental agency or body acting pursuant
to the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act is required for the execution and delivery by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, the borrowings by the Borrower in accordance with
the terms of the Credit Agreement or the performance by any Credit Party of its respective payment obligations under the Credit Documents or the granting of any security interests under the Security Documents, except filings required for the
perfection of security interests granted pursuant to the Security Documents. 
 Assuming that each of the Credit
Documents is a valid and legally binding obligation of each of the parties thereto, other than the Credit Parties, and assuming that (a) each of the Texas Subsidiaries is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction
in which it is organized and has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Credit Documents to which it is a party in accordance with its organizational documents, (b) execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Credit
Documents to which it is a party do not violate the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or any other applicable laws (excepting the law of the State of New York, the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Delaware Limited Liability
Company Act and the federal laws of the United States) and (c) execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party do not constitute 









					
		 	-6-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 
a breach or violation of any agreement or instrument which is binding upon such Credit Party (except that we do not make the assumption in the foregoing clause (c) with respect to the
agreements and instruments that are the subject of clause (b) of opinion paragraph 3 of this opinion letter), each Credit Document constitutes and each Note delivered to a Lender after the date hereof, assuming the due execution and delivery by
the Credit Party which is the maker of such Note, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of each Credit Party which is a party thereto, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms. 

To our knowledge, there is no action, suit or proceeding now pending before or by any court, arbitrator or governmental
agency, body or official of the United States or any state of the United States to which any Credit Party is a party or to which the business, assets or property of any Credit Party is subject, and no such action, suit or proceeding is threatened to
which any Credit Party would be a party or to which the business, assets or property of any Credit Party would be subject, that in either case questions the validity of the Credit Documents. 

No Credit Party is an “investment company” within the meaning of, and subject to regulation under, the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Assuming that the Borrower will comply with the provisions of the
Credit Agreement relating to the use of proceeds, the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the Borrower, the borrowings by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the making of the Loans under the Credit
Agreement will not violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

The Security Agreement creates in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in
the Collateral described therein in which a security interest may be created under Article 9 of the New York UCC. 
 The Security Agreement creates in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest under the New York UCC in the investment property (as defined in Section 9-102
of the New York UCC) identified on Schedules 6(a)(i) and 6(a)(ii) to the Perfection Certificate, which includes pledged Equity Interests which are certificated and which are separately identified on Schedule 6(a)(i) to the Perfection Certificate
(the “Certificated Pledged Securities”), and other pledged Equity Interests which are uncertificated. 
 The Administrative Agent will have a perfected security interest in the Certificated Pledged Securities for the benefit of the Lenders under the New York UCC upon delivery to the Administrative Agent for
the benefit of the Lenders in the State of New York of the certificates representing the Certificated Pledged Securities in registered form, indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement or accompanied by undated powers with respect thereto duly
indorsed in blank by an effective indorsement. Assuming neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders has notice of any adverse claim to the Certificated Pledged Securities, the Administrative Agent will acquire the security interest in
the Certificated Pledged Securities for the benefit of the Lenders free of any adverse claim. 









					
		 	-7-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 The Administrative Agent will have a perfected security interest in that
portion of the Collateral constituting instruments (as defined in Section 9-102 of the New York UCC) identified on Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate for the benefit of the Lenders under the New York UCC upon delivery of such instruments
to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in the State of New York. 
 The Administrative Agent
will have a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Lenders in that portion of the Collateral constituting the U.S. trademark registrations of ARA LLC listed, and correctly identified, on Schedule I to the Trademark Security Agreement,
upon (a) the taking of all actions required under the law of the jurisdiction of organization of ARA LLC with respect to the perfection of a security interest in such intangible property and (b) the timely filing and recording of the
Trademark Security Agreement, including Schedules thereto, in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, in the manner specified by such office and in accordance with its rules and regulations. 

Although we express no opinion as to the law of the State of Delaware (other than the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Delaware
Limited Liability Company Act), we have reviewed Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of Delaware as set forth in the Commerce Clearing House, Inc. Secured Transactions Guide as supplemented through April 27, 2010
(the “Delaware UCC”) and, based solely on such review, we advise you that (a) the Delaware Financing Statements to be filed in the Delaware Filing Office are in appropriate form for filing in the Delaware Filing Office and
(b) upon the filing of the Delaware Financing Statements in the Delaware Filing Office, the Administrative Agent will have a perfected security interest for the benefit of the Lenders in that portion of the Collateral in which a security
interest is perfected by filing a financing statement in the Delaware Filing Office. 
 Our opinions in paragraphs 5, 9 and 10
above are subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether
considered in a 









					
		 	-8-	 	May 7, 2010

  

 
proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Our opinion in paragraph 5 above also is subject to the qualification that certain
provisions of the Security Documents may not be enforceable in whole or in part, although the inclusion of such provisions does not render the Security Documents invalid, and the Security Documents and the law of the State of New York contain
adequate remedial provisions for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby. 
 Our opinions in
paragraphs 9, 11 and 12, and our advice in the second preceding paragraph above, are limited to Article 9 of the New York UCC or the Delaware UCC, as the case may be, and our opinion in paragraph 10 is limited to Articles 8 and 9 of the
New York UCC, and, therefore, those opinion and advice paragraphs do not address (i) collateral of a type not subject to Article 8 or 9, as the case may be, of the New York UCC or the Delaware UCC and (ii) what law governs perfection
of the security interests granted in the collateral covered by this opinion letter. 
 We express no opinion and render no
advice with respect to: 
 perfection of any security interest in (1) any collateral of a type represented by a certificate
of title and (2) any collateral consisting of money or cash equivalents; 
 the effect of § 9-315(a)(2) of the
applicable Uniform Commercial Code with respect to any proceeds of Collateral that are not identifiable; 
 perfection of any
security interest whose priority is subject to Section 9-334 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; 
 except as
provided in paragraph 11, the priority of any security interest; 
 the effect of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code
(11 U.S.C. 552) (relating to property acquired by a pledgor after the commencement of a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code with respect to such pledgor) and Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code
(11 U.S.C. 506(c)) (relating to certain costs and expenses of a trustee in preserving or disposing of collateral); 
 any matters subject to any statute, judicial ruling or decree, and any administrative or governmental regulation of the United States of America or any state or other political

	 	Re:	American Renal Holdings, Inc. 

 Ladies and
Gentlemen: 
 We have acted as special Texas counsel to American Renal Texas L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“TLP”) and American
Renal Texas II, L.P., a Texas limited partnership (“TLP II” and together with TLP are collectively referred to herein as the “Credit Parties” and individually as a “Credit Party”), in connection with the execution and
delivery of Subject Documents referred to below. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(ix) of the Credit Agreement dated as of May 7, 2010 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among C.P. Atlas Acquisition Corp.,
a Delaware corporation (to be merged with and into American Renal Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”)), the lenders party thereto in their capacities as lenders thereunder and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative
agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the other parties thereto. Terms not otherwise defined herein are used herein as defined in the Credit Agreement. 
 In our examination of the documents referred to below, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as
originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to any facts material to this opinion that we did not independently verify,
we have, to the extent we deemed appropriate, without independent investigation, relied upon certificates, statements and representations of the Credit Parties and their officers and other representatives, and of public officials, including the
facts set forth in the Officer’s Certificate referred to below.

I. SCOPE OF REVIEW 

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have examined and relied on originals or copies of the following, all (except as otherwise indicated)
dated as of May 7, 2010, and all delivered pursuant to the Credit Agreement: 
 (a) the Guaranty;

 (b) the Security Agreement; 

(c) the Intercreditor Agreement; 
 (d) the Credit Agreement; 
 (e) with respect to each Credit Party,
a certificate of the Secretary of State of Texas, certifying as to the Certificate of Limited Partnership of such Credit Party (collectively, the “Charters”); 

(f) with respect to each Credit Party, a certificate of an authorized representative of such Credit Party certifying as to
(i) the Charters, (ii) the Agreement of Limited Partnership of such Credit Party (collectively, together with the Charters, the “Organizational Documents”), (iii) resolutions adopted on May 7, 2010, by the general
partner of such Credit Party, and (iv) the incumbency and specimen signatures of certain officers; 
 (g)
with respect to each Credit Party, a certificate of the Secretary of State of Texas, dated as of a recent date, attesting to the existence of such Credit Party in such state and a Certificate of Good Standing from the Texas Comptroller of Accounts;

 (h) a certificate (“Officer’s Certificate”) executed by the general partner of the Credit
Parties as to various factual matters regarding our opinions below; and 
 (i) with respect to each Credit Party,
an unfiled copy of a financing statement (individually a “UCC Financing Statement” and collectively the “UCC Financing Statements”) naming such Credit Party as debtor and the Administrative Agent as secured party, to be filed in
office of the Secretary of State of Texas with respect to the security interests granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement (a copy of each UCC Financing Statement being attached as Annex I). 

The documents referred to in clauses (a) through (c) above are herein collectively called the “Subject Documents”. 

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have, with your consent, relied only upon the examination of the documents described above and have made
no independent verification or investigation of the factual matters set forth therein. We did not participate in the negotiation or preparation of the documents and except as set forth herein have not advised the Credit Parties with respect to such
documents or transactions contemplated therein. 







 May 7, 2010

 For purposes
hereof, the following terms have the following meaning: (i) “Applicable Laws” means those laws, rules and regulations of the State of Texas which, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by
the Subject Documents, it being understood that the term Applicable Laws does not include any laws of the type mentioned in Parts IIIA(2) or IIIA(3) hereof, or any law, rule, regulation, ordinance, administrative decision or order of any
municipality, county or similar political subdivision or any agency or instrumentality thereof; (ii) “Governmental Authority” means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of Texas; and
(iii) “Governmental Approval” means any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any Governmental Authority pursuant to the laws of the State of Texas to the extent
specifically referred to herein. 
 As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, (i) “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial
Code, it being understood that the designation of a state before the UCC means the UCC as in effect in such state (i.e., the “Texas UCC” means the UCC as in effect in the State of Texas ); (ii) “Collateral” means any and all
collateral in which a security interest has purportedly been granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement, including the Pledged Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement); (iii) “UCC Collateral” means
any or all Collateral in which a security interest can be granted under Article 9 of the UCC; and (iv) terms defined in the UCC are used herein as defined in the Texas UCC. 
 We are admitted to the Bar in the State of Texas. We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Texas. In this respect we call to your attention that the
Subject Documents are governed by the laws of jurisdictions other than those described above and we express no opinion as to the effect of any such other laws on the opinions expressed herein. 

Our opinions are also subject to the following assumptions and qualifications: 
 II. ASSUMPTIONS 
 A. We have assumed, with your
permission, that: 
 (1) each of the Subject Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
each party thereto, enforceable against such parties in accordance with its terms; 
 (2) the execution, delivery
and performance by each Credit Party of any of its obligations under the Subject Documents to which it is a party does not and will not conflict with, contravene, violate or constitute a default under (A) any rule, law or regulation to which
such Credit Party is subject (other than the Applicable Laws as to which we express our opinion in paragraph 3 herein), or (B) any judicial or administrative order or decree of any governmental authority; and 







 May 7, 2010 
 Page 4 
  
 (3) no authorization, consent or other approval of, notice to or filing with any court, governmental authority or regulatory body (other than the Governmental Approvals as to which we express our opinion
in paragraph 4 herein) is required to authorize or is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of any Subject Document to which it is a party or the transactions contemplated thereby. 

B. We have assumed with your permission (i) as to each Credit Party, the address pertaining to it, is as set forth in Schedule 1 to
the Officer’s Certificate, and (ii) the name of the Administrative Agent is Bank of America, N.A. 
 C. We have
assumed with your permission that (i) value has been given pursuant to Section 9-203 of the applicable UCC, and (ii) each Credit Party has rights in the Collateral or the power to transfer rights in the Collateral to the
Administrative Agent. 
 D. We have assumed with your permission that the description of the Collateral in the Security
Agreement, to the extent that such description entails all-inclusive or general language rather than specifically identifying language to describe the personal property to be covered thereby, is sufficient to enable its identification. 

E. We have assumed with your permission that none of the Credit Parties is a transmitting utility (as defined in UCC
Section 9-102(80)), a trust or trustee, or a decedent’s estate. 
 III. QUALIFICATIONS 

A. We express no opinion as to: 
 (1) the effect on the opinions herein stated of (a) the compliance or non-compliance of any party to the Subject Documents (other than the Credit Parties) with any federal, state, or other laws or
regulations applicable to them, or, (b) the legal or regulatory status or the nature of the business of such parties; or 
 (2) compliance with, or any governmental or regulatory filing, approval, authorization, license or consent required by or under, any (a) federal or state environmental law, (b) federal or state
antitrust law, (c) federal or state taxation law, (d) federal or state worker health or safety law, (e) federal or state patent, trademark or copyright statute, rule or regulation, (f) statutory or other requirement relating to
the disposition of hazardous waste or environmental protection, (g) federal or state receivership or conservatorship law, (h) securities registration or antifraud provisions under any federal or state securities law, (i) federal or

 May 7, 2010 
 Page 5 
  


environmental, permitting, land use or subdivision law, ordinance, code, rule or regulation, (l) labor, pension and employee benefit law, rule or regulation, (m) Federal Reserve margin
regulations, (n) usury law. 
 B. We express no opinion as to: 

(1) the creation or perfection of any security interest in any property excluded from the provisions of the UCC pursuant
to Section 9-109 of the New York or Texas UCC; 
 (2) any Collateral that consists of consumer goods, farm
products, agricultural liens, manufactured homes, fixtures, crops, timber, minerals (including oil and gas) before extraction, as-extracted collateral, accounts or general intangibles with respect to any governmental unit, an interest in a
decedent’s estate, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, or items which are subject to a requirement of any jurisdiction which provides for a registration or certificate of title or a filing other than under the UCC; 

(3) except for our opinion in paragraph 5, the perfection of any security interest in any of the UCC Collateral;

 (4) the priority of your security interests in any of the Collateral (including the UCC Collateral);

 (5) the extent to which any restriction on the right of any Credit Party to transfer or assign its interest in
any UCC Collateral is rendered ineffective pursuant to Section 9-406 or 9-408 of any applicable UCC; or 

(6) any actions that may be required to be taken periodically under the UCC or other applicable law in order for the
effectiveness of the UCC Financing Statements, or the validity or perfection of any security interest, to be maintained. 
 C.
We call to your attention that: 
 (1) the security interest of the Administrative Agent in any Collateral may be
subject to the rights of account debtors in respect of such Collateral, claims and defenses of such account debtors and the terms of agreements with such account debtors; and 

(2) the rights of the Credit Parties to assign receivables consisting of claims against any federal, state or local
government or governmental agency (including, without limitation, the United States or any agency or department thereof) may be limited by the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, the Social Security Act, and corresponding or similar state or local
statutes. 
 D. In the case of investment property: 

(1) we express no opinion as to the perfection, priority, or enforceability of the security interest of the Administrative
Agent in any securities issued by any person organized outside of the United States; 







 May 7, 2010 
 Page 6 
  
 (2) we call to your attention that in the case of the issuance of additional shares or other distributions in respect of Collateral consisting of securities, unless the Administrative Agent’s
security interest therein has been perfected by the filing of a financing statement the security interest of the Administrative Agent therein will be perfected only to the extent the Administrative Agent has control (as defined in Section 8-106
of the applicable UCC) and/or other action appropriate to the nature of the distribution is taken, in either case, in accordance with the provisions of the UCC and other applicable law; and 

(3) you should be aware that in the case of Collateral consisting of securities, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders
may not be entitled to exercise voting rights with respect to such securities or to receive dividends or other distributions directly from the issuer thereof prior to becoming record holder of such securities, nor may such securities be sold or
further transferred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, except pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in such act, and qualification or exemption under any applicable state
securities or “blue sky” laws. 
 E. You should be aware that the security interest created by a Credit Party in
proceeds of Collateral and the perfection of such security interest is limited to the extent set forth in Section 9-315 of the applicable UCC. 
 F. Our opinions below are subject to the qualification that the Subject Documents contain adequate remedial provisions for the practical realization of the rights and benefits afforded thereby.

 IV. OPINIONS 
 Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations, qualifications, exceptions and other limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 

1. Based solely on the certificates of existence referred to in Part I, each of the Credit Parties is in existence and good standing
under the laws of the State of Texas. 
 2. The execution and delivery of each of such Subject Documents to which it is a party
and the consummation by each of the Credit Parties of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by requisite limited partnership action on the part of each of the Credit Parties. Each of the Credit Parties has duly executed and
delivered each of the Subject Documents to which it is party. 







 May 7, 2010 
 Page 7 
  

3. The execution and delivery by each Credit Party of the Subject Documents to which it is a party and performance by each of the Credit
Parties of their obligations under such Subject Documents, each in accordance with its terms, do not (a) conflict with the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party or (b) violate any provision of Applicable Law. 

4. No Governmental Approval, which has not been obtained or taken and is not in full force and effect, is required to authorize or is
required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Subject Documents by any Credit Parties except (a) filings necessary to perfect Liens created by the Subject Documents in the Collateral, (b) as may be
required to be made or obtained by you as a result of your involvement in the transactions contemplated by the Subject Documents, and (c) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect. 

5. The UCC Financing Statements are in proper form for filing in the Office of the Secretary of State of Texas, and upon the filing of
the UCC Financing Statements of each Credit Party in such office, the security interests in the UCC Collateral granted by such Credit Party to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Security Agreement will be
perfected to the extent that such security interests may be perfected under the Texas UCC by the filing of a financing statement in the office of the Secretary of State of Texas. 

6. No taxes or other charges, including, without limitation, intangible or documentary stamp taxes, recording taxes, transfer taxes or
similar charges, are payable to the State or to any jurisdiction therein on account of the execution and delivery of the Subject Documents or the creation of the indebtedness evidenced or secured by any of the Subject Documents or the recording or
filing of the UCC Financing Statements, except for nominal filing or recording fees. 
 7. The choice of law provisions in the
Subject Documents will be upheld and enforced by the courts of the State of Texas and Federal courts sitting in and applying the laws of the State of Texas. 
 This opinion is limited to the matters expressly set forth herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly so stated. This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we do
not undertake any liability or responsibility to inform you of any change in circumstances occurring, or additional information becoming available to us, after the date hereof which might alter the opinions contained herein. 

This opinion is rendered only to you and your successors and permitted transferees under the Credit Agreement, and is solely for your and
their benefit. This opinion may not be relied upon by any other person or entity or for any other purpose or used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, in each case without our prior written consent.

the value of any Shared Collateral or Proceeds that are allocated to such Intervening Creditor shall be deducted solely from the Shared Collateral or Proceeds to be distributed in respect of First Lien Obligations of such Class. 

SECTION 2.03. Payment Over. Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and its Related Secured Parties, agrees that if such
Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties shall at any time obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or receive any Proceeds (other than as a result of any application of Proceeds pursuant to Section 2.01(b)), (i) such
Collateral Agent or its Related Secured Party, as the case may be, shall promptly inform each other Collateral Agent thereof, (ii) such Collateral Agent or its Related Secured Party shall hold such Shared Collateral or Proceeds in trust for the
benefit of the Secured Parties of any Class entitled thereto pursuant to Section 2.01(b) and, with respect to any Shared Collateral constituting Controlled Shared Collateral, such Collateral Agent shall comply with the provisions of
Section 4.01 and (iii) in the case of any such Proceeds, such Proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.01(b) as promptly as practicable. 
 SECTION 2.04. Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Obligations and Liens. Whenever the Collateral Agent of any Class shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the
performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First Lien Obligations of any other Class, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien Obligations of any other Class (and whether such
Lien constitutes a valid and perfected Lien), it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by the Collateral Agent of such other Class and shall be entitled to make such determination on the basis of the information so
furnished; provided that if, notwithstanding the request of the Collateral Agent of such Class, the Collateral Agent of such other Class shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the Collateral Agent of
such Class shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower. Each Collateral Agent may
rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the

 SECTION 3.02. Prohibition on Contesting Liens. Each Collateral Agent agrees, on
behalf of itself and its Related Secured Parties, that neither such Collateral Agent nor any of its Related Secured Parties will, and each hereby waives any right to, contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including
any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity, attachment or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any other Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties in all or any part of the Shared
Collateral; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties to enforce this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.03. Prohibition on Challenging this Agreement. Each Collateral Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and its Related Secured
Parties, that neither such Collateral Agent nor any of its Related Secured Parties will attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties to enforce this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.04. Release of Liens. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the release of Liens on any Shared Collateral
securing First Lien Obligations of any Class, whether in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition of such Shared Collateral or otherwise, shall be governed by and subject to the Secured Credit Documents of such Class, and that nothing
in this Agreement shall be deemed to amend or affect the terms of the Secured Credit Documents of such Class with respect thereto. 
 SECTION 3.05. Insurance and Condemnation Awards. So long as the Discharge of the Credit Agreement Obligations has not occurred, the Credit Agreement Administrative Agent and its Related Secured
Parties shall have the exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under and solely to the extent provided in the Credit Agreement Documents, to settle and adjust claims in respect of Shared Collateral under policies of insurance covering
Shared Collateral and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding, or any deed in lieu of condemnation, in respect of the Shared Collateral; provided that any Proceeds arising therefrom shall be subject to Article

 ARTICLE IV  
 Collateral 
 SECTION 4.01. Bailment for Perfection of Security
Interests. 
 (a) Each Collateral Agent agrees that if it shall at any time hold a Lien on any Shared Collateral that can be
perfected by the possession or control of such Shared Collateral or of any deposit, securities or other account in which such Shared Collateral is held, and if such Shared Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the
control of such Collateral Agent, or of agents or bailees of such Collateral Agent (such Shared Collateral being 

  
 -12-









 
referred to herein as the “Controlled Shared Collateral”), such Collateral Agent shall, solely for the purpose of perfecting the Liens of any other Collateral Agent granted on
such Shared Collateral under its Related Secured Credit Documents and subject to the terms and conditions of this Article, also hold such Controlled Shared Collateral as gratuitous bailee and sub-agent for each such other Collateral Agent (any
Collateral Agent that shall be holding any Controlled Shared Collateral as gratuitous bailee and sub-agent being referred to herein as the “Bailee Collateral Agent”). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Collateral Agent appoints
each Bailee Collateral Agent as such Collateral Agent’s gratuitous bailee and sub-agent hereunder with respect to any Controlled Shared Collateral that such Bailee Collateral Agent possesses or controls at any time solely for the purpose of
perfecting a Lien on such Controlled Shared Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that as of the date hereof and until such time as the Credit Agreement Obligations are Discharged, the Credit
Agreement Administrative Agent shall have the sole right to give any instructions, directions and entitlement orders (including any blockage or withdrawal instructions) with respect to any deposit, securities or other accounts, or any funds or
property contained thereinto and to exercise any other remedies under any control agreement entered into with respect to a deposit account, a securities account or any other account (whether or not the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent is also a
party thereto); provided that any amounts withdrawn therefrom shall be subject to Article II. It is further understood and agreed that as of the date hereof and until such time as the Credit Agreement Obligations are Discharged, the Credit
Agreement Administrative Agent shall be granted possession of all possessory Controlled Shared Collateral and, thereafter, possession shall be determined by Section 4.01(d). 

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby grants a security interest in the Controlled Shared Collateral to each
Collateral Agent that possesses or controls Controlled Shared Collateral as permitted in Section 4.01(a) for the benefit of the Secured Parties under any other Class of First Lien Obligations which have been granted a Lien on the Controlled
Shared Collateral possessed or controlled by such Collateral Agent. 
 (c) Subject to Section 4.01(a), for purposes of this
Section, the Bailee Collateral Agent shall be entitled to deal with the applicable Controlled Shared Collateral in accordance with the terms of its Related Secured Credit Documents as if the Liens thereon of the Collateral Agent or Secured Parties
of any other Class (and the agreements set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section) did not exist; provided that any Proceeds arising from any such Controlled Shared Collateral shall be subject to Article II. The obligations and
responsibilities of any Bailee Collateral Agent to any other Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties under this Article shall be limited solely to holding or controlling the applicable Controlled Shared Collateral as gratuitous bailee
and sub-agent in accordance with this Article. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) no Bailee Collateral Agent shall have any obligation or responsibility to ensure that any Controlled Shared Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the
Grantors, (ii) no Bailee Collateral Agent shall, by reason of this Agreement, any other Security Document or any other document, have a fiduciary relationship or other implied duties in respect of any other Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Party and (iii) without affecting the agreement of any Bailee Collateral Agent to act as a gratuitous bailee and sub-agent solely for the purpose set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section or the right of any other Collateral Agent to
enforce the rights and exercise the remedies (in each case other than through such Bailee Collateral Agent) as set forth in Section 3.01 and subject to the proviso in Section 4.01(a), each Collateral Agent agrees that


  
 -13-









 
such Collateral Agent shall not issue any instructions to any Bailee Collateral Agent, in its capacity as a gratuitous bailee and sub-agent of such Collateral Agent, with respect to the
Controlled Shared Collateral or otherwise seek to exercise control over any Bailee Collateral Agent. 
 (d) The Bailee
Collateral Agent of any Class shall, upon the Discharge of the First Lien Obligations of such Class, transfer the possession and control of the applicable Controlled Shared Collateral, together with any necessary endorsements but without recourse or
warranty, (i) if First Lien Obligations of any other Class are outstanding at such time, to the Collateral Agent of such other Class (or, if First Lien Obligations of more than one other Class are outstanding at such time, to the Collateral
Agent of the same Class as the Class of the First Lien Obligations the aggregate principal amount of which outstanding at such time exceeds the aggregate principal amount of the First Lien Obligations of any other Class outstanding at such time) and
(ii) if no First Lien Obligations are outstanding at such time, to the applicable Grantor or as directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, in each case so as to allow such Person to obtain possession and control of such Controlled Shared
Collateral. In connection with any transfer under clause (i) above by any Bailee Collateral Agent, such Bailee Collateral Agent agrees to take all actions in its power as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the transferee Collateral
Agent to permit the transferee Collateral Agent to obtain, for the benefit of its Related Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in the applicable Controlled Shared Collateral. 

SECTION 4.02. Delivery of Documents. Promptly after the execution and delivery to any Collateral Agent by any Grantor of any
Security Document (other than (a) any Security Document in effect on the date hereof and (b) any Additional First Lien Obligations Document referred to in paragraph (b) of Article VII, but including any amendment, amendment and
restatement, waiver or other modification of any such Security Document or Additional First Lien Obligations Document), the Borrower shall deliver to each Collateral Agent party hereto at such time a copy of such Security Document.

 (b) The Grantors agree that each Security Document (other than any Credit Agreement Document executed and delivered prior to the date hereof, without limitation of the applicability of this Agreement
thereto) creating a Lien on any Shared Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations (i) shall contain a legend substantially in the form of Annex I, or similar provisions approved by the Credit Agreement Administrative Agent, which approval
shall not be 

  
 -14-









 
unreasonably withheld, and (ii) shall provide that all powers, rights and remedies under such Security Document with respect to Shared Collateral may be exercised solely by the Collateral
Agent of the applicable Class on behalf of the Secured Parties of such Class in accordance with the terms thereof, and that no other Secured Party of the applicable Class shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Liens on Shared
Collateral granted thereunder to secure First Lien Obligations of such Class. 
 (c) The Grantors agree that they shall not
grant to any Person any Lien on any Shared Collateral securing First Lien Obligations of any Class other than through the Collateral Agent of such Class (it being understood that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit grants of set-off rights
to Secured Parties of any Class); provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit the granting of any Liens permitted by the terms of the Secured Credit Documents. 
 (d) The Grantors agree that they shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary to, grant or permit or suffer to exist any additional Liens on any asset or property to secure any Class of First Lien
Obligations unless it has granted a Lien on such asset or property to secure each other Class of First Lien Obligations; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) any class of First Lien Obligations from being secured by Equity
Interests (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that do not secure any other class of First Lien Obligations due to the Rule 3-16 Exception (as defined in the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agreement) or (ii) the granting of any Liens permitted
by the terms of the Secured Credit Documents. 
 SECTION 5.02. Refinancings. The First Lien Obligations of any Class may
be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent of the Collateral Agent or Secured Party of any other Class, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein (including, without limitation, the priority in
right of payment of the Priority Payment Lien Obligations) or the other provisions hereof; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall affect any limitation on any such Refinancing that is set forth in the Secured Credit Documents of any
such other Class; and provided further that, if any obligations of the Grantors in respect of such Refinancing indebtedness shall be secured by Liens on any Shared Collateral, such obligations and the holders thereof shall be subject
to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement and, if not already, the collateral agent under such obligations shall become a party hereto by executing and delivering a Collateral Agent Joinder Agreement. 

SECTION 5.03. Reinstatement. If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise, all or part of any payment with respect
to the First Lien Obligations of any Class previously made shall be rescinded for any reason whatsoever (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law), then the terms and conditions of
Article II shall be fully applicable thereto until all the First Lien Obligations of such Class shall again have been paid in full in cash. 
 SECTION 5.04. Reorganization Modifications. In the event the First Lien Obligations of any Class are modified pursuant to applicable law, including Section 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, any
reference to the First Lien Obligations of such Class or the Secured Credit Documents of such Class shall refer to such obligations or such documents as so modified. 
 SECTION 5.05. Further Assurances. Each of the Collateral Agents and the 

  
 -15-









 
Grantors agrees that it will execute, or will cause to be executed, such reasonable further documents, agreements and instruments, and take all such reasonable further actions, as may be required

 SECTION 6.01. No Reliance; Information.
Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of its Related Secured Parties, acknowledges that (a) its Related Secured Parties have, independently and without reliance upon any Collateral Agent or any Related Secured Parties, and based on such documents
and information as they have deemed appropriate, made their own credit analysis and decision to enter into the Secured Credit Documents to which they are party and (b) its Related Secured Parties will, independently and without reliance upon
any Collateral Agent or any of its Related Secured Parties, and based on such documents and information as they shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make their own credit decision in taking or not taking any action under this
Agreement or any other Secured Credit Document. The Collateral Agent or Secured Parties of any Class shall have no duty to disclose to any Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any other Class any information relating to the Borrower or any of
the Grantors or their Subsidiaries, or any other circumstance bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the First Lien Obligations, that is known or becomes known to any of them or any of their Affiliates. If the Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party of any Class, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to, as the case may be, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party of any other Class, it shall be under no obligation (i) to
make, and shall not be deemed to have made, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of the information so provided, (ii) to provide any additional
information or to provide any such information on any subsequent occasion or (iii) to undertake any investigation.

(b) No Collateral Agent or Secured Parties of any Class shall have any express or implied duty to the Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party of any other Class to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of a default or an Event of Default under any Secured Credit Document (other than, in each case, this Agreement), regardless
of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with.

 SECTION 6.03. Rights of Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent. 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Senior Secured Notes Collateral Agent shall be entitled to the same
rights, protections, immunities and indemnities as set forth in the Senior Secured Notes Indenture as if the provisions setting forth those rights, protections, immunities and indemnities are fully set forth herein. 

ARTICLE VII  
 Additional First Lien Obligations 
 The Borrower may from time to time,
subject to any limitations contained in any Secured Credit Documents in effect at such time, designate additional indebtedness and related obligations that are, or are to be, secured by Liens on any assets of the Borrower or any of the Grantors that

a statement of the maximum aggregate outstanding principal amount of such indebtedness as of the date of such certificate;

Additional First Lien Obligations, certified as being true and complete by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower; 
 (c) identifying the Person that serves as the Additional Collateral Agent; 
 (d) certifying that the incurrence of such Additional First Lien Obligations, the creation of the Liens securing such Additional First Lien Obligations and the designation of such Additional First Lien
Obligations as “Additional First Lien Obligations” hereunder do not violate or result in a default under any provision of any Secured Credit Document of any Class in effect at such time; 

(e) identifying such Additional First Lien Obligations as either Priority Payment Lien Obligations or Pari Passu Lien
Indebtedness, and if identified as Priority Payment Lien Obligations, certifying that the designation of such Additional First Lien Obligations as Priority Payment Lien Obligations does not violate or result in a default under any provision of any
Secured Credit Document of any Class in effect at such time;

(A) meet the requirements of Section 5.01(b) and (B) authorize the Additional Collateral Agent to become a party hereto by executing and delivering a Collateral Agent Joinder Agreement and provide that, upon such execution and

terms. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained herein shall be construed to constitute a waiver or an amendment of any covenant of the Borrower or any other Grantor contained in any Secured Credit Document, which restricts the incurrence of
any Indebtedness or the grant of any Lien. 
 SECTION 8.12. Additional Grantors. In the event any Subsidiary shall have
granted a Lien on any of its assets to secure any First Lien Obligations, the Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary, if not already a party hereto, to become a party hereto as a “Grantor”. Upon the execution and delivery by any Subsidiary
of a Grantor Joinder Agreement, any such Subsidiary shall become a party hereto and a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the
consent of any other party hereto. The rights and obligations of each party hereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

 SECTION 8.13. Specific Performance. Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and
its Related Secured Parties, may demand specific performance of this Agreement. Each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and its Related Secured Parties, hereby irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law and any other
defense that might be asserted to bar the remedy of specific performance in any action which may be brought by the Secured Parties. 
 SECTION 8.14. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Secured Credit Documents, represents the agreement of each of the Grantors and the Secured Parties with respect to the subject
matter hereof and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Grantor, any Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other
Secured Credit Documents.
