 In
the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower determine that any Section 9.1 Financials previously delivered were incorrect or inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is

Borrower shall as soon as practicable deliver to the Administrative Agent the correct Section 9.1 Financials for such Applicable Period, (b) the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if the pricing level for such higher Applicable
Margin were applicable for such Applicable Period, and (c) the Borrower shall within 10 Business Days of demand thereof by the Administrative Agent pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued additional interest owing as a result of such

originally delivering such notice, (y) of the waiver of such Default or Event of Default in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.1 or (z) from the Administrative Agent that such Default or Event of Default is no longer
continuing. 
 (ii) On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, give notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, with
a copy to the Borrower, that all then-outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with a Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars, in which case Revolving Credit Loans constituting ABR Loans (each such Borrowing, a
“Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the same Business Day by all Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata based on each such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage, and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to
the Swingline Lender to repay the Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Credit Loans upon same Business Days’ notice pursuant to each Mandatory
Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified to it in writing by the Swingline Lender notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum
amount for each Borrowing specified in Section 2.2, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 7 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the date of such
Mandatory Borrowing or (v) any reduction in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after any such Swingline Loans were made. In the event that, in the sole judgment of the Swingline Lender, any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made
on the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrower), each Revolving Credit Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase from the Swingline
Lender (without recourse or warranty) such participation of the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages;
provided that all principal and interest payable on such Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date the respective participation is purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation,
shall be payable to the Lender purchasing the same from and after such date of purchase.

Lenders one or more Revolving Credit Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Credit Lender of an appointment as a Swingline Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Swingline Lender, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such

acknowledging receipt of such notice and (ii) the fifth Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the Swingline Exposure of such Swingline Lender
shall have been reduced to zero. Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such termination, the terminated Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect
to Swingline Loans made by it prior to such termination, but shall not make any additional Swingline Loans. 

2.2 Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing; Maximum Number of Borrowings. The aggregate principal amount of
each Borrowing of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be in a multiple of $500,000 and Swingline Loans shall be in a multiple of $100,000 and, in each case, shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount with respect for such Type of

Section 3.3 or Section 3.4, as applicable). More than one Borrowing may be Incurred on any date; provided that at no time shall there be outstanding more than 15 Eurodollar Borrowings under this Agreement (which maximum number of
Eurodollar Borrowings may be increased or adjusted by agreement between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in connection with any Incremental Facility or Extended Loans/Commitments). For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different

Eurodollar Loans and, if the Initial Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be, are to include Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto; provided that the Notice of Borrowing for the Borrowing of
Initial Term Loans may be revocable and conditioned upon the closing of the Sheridan Acquisition; provided further that each Notice of Borrowing for a Borrowing of Term Loans other than the Initial Term Loans shall be irrevocable. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing of Initial Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender’s

telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing.

the Borrower irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such Section. 

(e) Borrowings of Revolving Credit Loans to reimburse Unpaid Drawings under Letters of Credit shall be made upon the terms set forth in
Section 3.3 or Section 3.4(a). 
 (f) If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Notice of Borrowing then the applicable
Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as Eurodollar Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans in any such Notice of Borrowing, but fails to specify an Interest Period
(or fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation of Eurodollar Loans), it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. 

(g) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the
Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower. In each such case,
the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of any such telephonic notice. 
 2.4 
Disbursement of Funds. 
 (a) No later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing
(including Mandatory Borrowings and Borrowings to reimburse Unpaid Drawings under Letters of Credit), each Lender will make available its pro rata portion, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date in the manner provided below;
provided that on the Closing Date (or, with respect to any Incremental Facilities, on the relevant Incremental Facilities Closing Date), such funds may be made available at such earlier time as may be agreed among the relevant Lenders, the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent for the purpose of consummating the Transactions; provided, further, that all Swingline Loans shall be made available to the Borrower in the full amount thereof by the Swingline Lender no later
than 3:30 p.m. (New York City time). 
 (i) (i) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower under any
Borrowing for its applicable Commitments in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office and the Administrative Agent will (except in the case of Mandatory Borrowings and Borrowings to repay
Unpaid Drawings under Letters of Credit) make available to the Borrower by depositing to an account designated by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in writing, the aggregate of the amounts so made available in Dollars. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any such Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date,
the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any
obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made

available same to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith
upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent in Dollars. The Administrative Agent
shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then-applicable rate of
interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.8, for the respective 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 
 (ii) The Swingline Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower under any Borrowing of
Swingline Loans in immediately available funds to the Borrower, by depositing to an account designated by the Borrower to the Swingline Lender in writing, the aggregate of the amount so made available in Dollars. 

(c) Nothing in this Section 2.4, including any payment by the Borrower, shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to
fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any
other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder). 
 2.5 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

 (a) The Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, (i) on the Initial Term Loan
Maturity Date, all then outstanding Initial Term Loans, (ii) on the relevant Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date for any Class of Incremental Term Loans, any then outstanding Incremental Term Loans of such Class, (iii) on the Revolving

made on the Closing Date (with respect to each Initial Term Loan Repayment Date prior to the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date, as such amount may be reduced by, and after giving effect to, any voluntary and mandatory prepayments made in accordance
with Section 5 or as contemplated by Section 2.15) or (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans then outstanding (with respect to the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date) (each amount, an “Initial Term Loan
Repayment Amount”).

Table of Contents


 (c) In the event any Incremental Term Loans are made, such Incremental Term Loans shall mature
and be repaid in amounts and on dates as agreed between the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of such Incremental Term Loans in the applicable Incremental Agreement, subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.14. In the event that any
Extended Term Loans are established, such Extended Term Loans shall, subject to the requirements of Section 2.15, mature and be repaid by the Borrower in the amounts (each such amount, an “Extended Term Loan Repayment Amount”)
and on the dates (each an “Extended Repayment Date”) set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement. In the event any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are established, such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall, subject
to the requirements of Section 2.15, be terminated (and all Extended Revolving Credit Loans of the same Extension Series repaid) on dates set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement. 

(d) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the
appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from time to time
under this Agreement. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to
Section 13.6(b)(v), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, whether such Loan is an Initial Term Loan, an Incremental Term Loan (and
the relevant Class thereof), a Revolving Credit Loan, an Extended Term Loan (and the relevant Class thereof), an Extended Revolving Credit Loan (and the relevant Class thereof) or a Swingline Loan, as applicable, the Type of each Loan made and the
Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of any sum received
by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof and (iv) any cancellation or retirement of Loans contemplated by Section 13.6(i). 

(f) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) of this
Section 2.5 shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded and, in the case of the Register, shall be conclusive absent manifest error;
provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the
Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (g) For the
avoidance of doubt, all Loans shall be repaid, whether pursuant to this Section 
2.5 or otherwise, in Dollars. 
 2.6 Conversions and Continuations. 

(a) The Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day, subject to Section 2.11, to convert all or a portion equal to at least the

 88 







Table of Contents


 
Revolving Credit Loans of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type and except as otherwise provided herein the Borrower shall have the option on the last day of an Interest Period
to continue the outstanding principal amount of any Eurodollar Loans as Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period; provided that (i) no partial conversion of Eurodollar Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of
Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, (ii) ABR Loans may not be converted into Eurodollar Loans if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion and the
Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a) or 11.1(e), without any such determination),
(iii) Eurodollar Loans may not be continued as Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have,
determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation (or, in the case of an Event of Default under Section 11.1(a) or 11.1(e), without any such determination), and (iv) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant
to this Section 2.6 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.2. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by the Borrower giving the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to
1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least (i) three Business Days’, in the case of a continuation or, or conversion to, Eurodollar Loans or (ii) one Business Day in the case of a conversion into ABR Loans), prior written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) (each a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) specifying the Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Loans to be converted or continued, the requested date of the
conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), the principal amount of Loans to be converted or continued, as the case may be, and if such Loans are to be converted into or continued as Eurodollar Loans, the Interest
Period to be initially applicable thereto. If the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made or continued as the same Type of Loan, which if a Eurodollar Loan, shall have a
one-month Interest Period. Any such automatic continuation shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Loans. If the Borrower requests a conversion to, or continuation of
Eurodollar Loans in any such Notice of Conversion or Continuation, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, a Swingline Loan may not be converted to a Eurodollar Loan. The Administrative Agent shall give each applicable Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Loans. 

(b) If any Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed continuation of any Eurodollar Loans and the Administrative Agent has
or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the current Interest Period into ABR Loans. 

2.7 Pro Rata Borrowings. Each Borrowing of Initial Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by
the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Initial Term Loan Commitments. Each Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement

Incremental Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders of the relevant Class thereof pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Incremental Term Loan Commitments for the applicable Class. Each Borrowing of Extended Revolving
Credit Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders of the relevant Class thereof pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for the applicable Class. It is understood that (a) no Lender
shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender, severally and not jointly, shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure
of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder, and (b) other than as expressly provided herein with respect to a Defaulting Lender, failure by a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any of the Credit Documents shall not
release any Person from performance of its obligations under any Credit Document. 
 2.8 Interest.

 (a) The unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by
acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time plus the ABR in effect from time to time. 

(b) The unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time plus the relevant Eurodollar Rate in effect from time to time. 

(c) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or any interest payable thereon or any fees or other amounts due hereunder shall

Law, the rate described in Section 2.8(a) plus 2% from and including the date of such non-payment to but excluding the date on which such amount is paid in full. All such interest shall be payable on demand. 

(d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof, and
shall be payable in Dollars and, except as otherwise provided below, shall be payable (i) in respect of each ABR Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each
Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, and
(iii) in respect of each Loan (except, in the case of prepayments, any ABR Revolving Credit Loan), on any prepayment (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand;

the case may be. 
 2.9 Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or
Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) on or prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City
time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower shall have the right to elect, by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing), the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall be the period commencing on the date of such Borrowing and ending on the numerically corresponding day (or, if there is no numerically corresponding
day, on the last Business Day) in the calendar month that is one, two, three or six months thereafter (or if agreed to by all relevant Lenders participating in the relevant Credit Facility, twelve months thereafter or a period shorter than one
month). 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above: 

(a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any
conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding Interest Period expires; 

(b) if any Interest Period would end on a day other than a Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding

Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc. 
 (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or
(y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto): 

(i) on any date for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period that (x) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans
comprising any Eurodollar Borrowing are not generally available in the relevant market or (y) by reason of any changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for
ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or 
 (ii) that, due to a Change
in Law that shall (A) 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 by, any Lender (except any
reserve requirement taken into account in determining the Statutory Reserves); (B) subject any Lender to any tax (other than (1) taxes indemnified under Section 5.4, (2) taxes described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of
Section 5.4(a) or (3) taxes described in Section 5.4(f)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credits, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(C) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining
Eurodollar Loans or participating in Letters of Credit (in each case hereunder) increases by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems material or the amounts received or receivable by such Lender hereunder with respect to the foregoing shall be
reduced; or 
 (iii) at any time after the Closing Date, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has become unlawful by
compliance by such Lender in good faith with any Applicable Law (or would conflict with any such Applicable Law not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result
of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market; 
 then, and in any such event,
such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which
notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the
Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of

Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower with respect to Eurodollar Loans that have not yet been Incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the
case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly (but no later than ten Business Days) after receipt of written demand therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of
calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written
notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by Applicable Law. 

(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may
(and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) shall) either (x) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent
telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least
three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, if applicable; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected
Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b). 
 (c) If any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or
liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Letter of Credit Issuer’s or their respective parent’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s or Letter of Credit
Issuer’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer or their respective parent could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Letter
of Credit Issuer’s or their respective parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time, promptly (but no later than ten Business Days) after written demand by such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer or their respective parent for such reduction, it
being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s or Letter of Credit Issuer’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to
comply with, any such Applicable Law as in effect on the Closing Date except as a result of a Change in Law. Each Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this
Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower (on its own behalf) which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice
shall not, subject to Section 2.13, release or diminish any of the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) upon receipt of such notice.

 (d) This Section 2.10 shall not apply to taxes to the extent duplicative of
Section 5.4. 
 (e) The agreements in this Section 2.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 2.11 Compensation. If (a) any payment of
principal of a Eurodollar Loan is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loan as a result of a payment or conversion pursuant to Section 2.5, 2.6, 2.10, 5.1,
5.2 or 13.7, as a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Section 11 or for any other reason, (b) any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans is not made as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Borrowing or failure to satisfy
the conditions of Section 6 and Section 7, (c) any ABR Loan is not converted into a Eurodollar Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation, (d) any Eurodollar Loan is not continued as a Eurodollar Loan as
a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation or (e) any prepayment of principal of a Eurodollar Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 5.1 or 5.2, the Borrower shall, after
receipt of a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount and, absent clearly demonstrable error, the amount requested shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all
parties hereto), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender promptly upon demand any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of
such payment, failure to borrow, failure to convert, failure to continue, failure to prepay, reduction or failure to reduce, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) actually incurred by reason of the liquidation
or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Eurodollar Loan. The agreements in this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder. 
 2.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of
any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii), 2.10(a)(iii), 2.10(c), 3.5 or 5.4 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such
Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the
object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in
Section 2.10, 3.5 or 5.4. 
 2.13 Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this
Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.10, 2.11 or 3.5 is given by any Lender more than 180 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the
additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 3.5, as the case may be, for any such amounts incurred or
accruing prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof.

 2.14 Incremental Facilities. 

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent, request
(i) one or more additional Classes of term loans or additional term loans of the same Class as any existing Class of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”), or (ii) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments of any Class (each such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase” and, together with the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Facilities” and the commitments in respect
thereof are referred to as the “Incremental Commitments”). 
 (b) Each tranche of Incremental Term Loans and each
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the
limit set forth below) (and in minimum increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), and the aggregate amount of (X) the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases (after giving Pro Forma Effect thereto and the
use of the proceeds thereof) Incurred pursuant to this Section 2.14(b), plus (Y) the aggregate principal amount of Permitted Additional Debt Incurred under Section 10.1(w) shall not exceed, as of the date of Incurrence of such
Indebtedness or commitments, the sum of (A) the Incremental Base Amount plus (B) an aggregate amount of Indebtedness, such that, after giving Pro Forma Effect to such Incurrence (and after giving effect to any Specified Transaction
to be consummated in connection therewith and assuming that (i) all Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases then outstanding were fully drawn and (ii) all Incremental Commitments and all Permitted Additional Debt incurred under
Section 10.1(w) constitute Consolidated Secured Debt (whether or not such Indebtedness is in fact secured)), the Borrower would not have a Consolidated Secured Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio as of the last day of the Test Period most
recently ended on or prior to the Incurrence of any such Incremental Facility, calculated on a Pro Forma Basis, as if such Incurrence (and transactions) had occurred on the first day of such Test Period, greater than 3.25:1.00 (the
“Incremental Limit”). 
 (c) (A) The Incremental Term Loans (i) shall rank equal in right of payment and, if secured,
equal or junior in right of security with the Initial Term Loans (and shall be secured only by all or a portion of the Collateral securing the Obligations), (ii) shall not mature earlier than the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date,
(iii) shall not have a shorter Weighted Average Life to Maturity than the remaining Initial Term Loans, (iv) shall have the same optional and mandatory prepayment terms as the Initial Term Loans, (v) shall have a maturity date
(subject to clause (ii)), an amortization schedule (subject to clause (iii)), and interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment
premiums for the Incremental Term Loans as determined by the Borrower and the lenders of the Incremental Term Loans; provided that, in the event that the Effective Yield for any Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Effective Yield for
the Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50%, then the Applicable Margins for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans is equal to the Effective Yield for the Incremental
Term Loans minus 0.50%; and (vi) may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Initial Term Loans; provided that (x) except with respect to matters contemplated by clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) and
(v) above, any differences shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (except for covenants

and other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date), (y) the terms and conditions applicable to the Incremental Term Loans shall not, taken as a whole and as
reasonably determined by the Borrower, be more favorable to the Lenders and/or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans than the terms and conditions applicable to the Initial Term Loans and (z) the documentation governing any
Incremental Term Loans may include any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant so long as the Administrative Agent shall have been given prompt written notice thereof and this Agreement is amended to include such Previously Absent Financial
Maintenance Covenant for the benefit of each Credit Facility. 
 (B) The Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be treated
the same as the Revolving Credit Commitments (including with respect to maturity date thereof) and shall be considered to be part of the Revolving Credit Facility (it being understood that, if required to consummate an Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment Increase, the interest rate margins, rate floors and undrawn commitment fees on the Revolving Credit Commitments may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitment Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Revolving Credit Lenders)). 
 (d) Each notice from the
Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall be given in writing and shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases and shall contain a
confirmation that the lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments are existing Lenders or would otherwise constitute Eligible Assignees. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment Increases may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender with an Initial Term Loan Commitment will have an
obligation to make a portion of any Incremental Term Loan and no existing Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment will have any obligation to provide a portion of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase) or by any other bank,
financial institution, other institutional lender or other investor that would constitute an Eligible Assignee (any such other bank, financial institution or other investor being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that
the Administrative Agent shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases if such consent
would be required under Section 13.6(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender; provided further that, solely with respect to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment
Increases, the Swingline Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Additional Lender’s providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases if such consent would be
required under Section 13.6(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender. 
 (e)
Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Lender with a
Revolving Credit Commitment, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment)

under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Agreement”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents, executed by the Borrower, each
Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Agreement may, subject to Section 2.14(c), without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to
this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section (including, in connection with an Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment Increase, to reallocate Revolving Credit Exposure on a pro rata basis among the relevant Revolving Credit Lenders). The Borrower may use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases for
any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. The effectiveness of any Incremental Agreement (an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) and the occurrence of any Credit Event pursuant to such Incremental Agreement shall be subject to
the satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on the Incremental Facility Closing Date
before or after giving effect to the making of such Incremental Term Loans or the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase; provided that, with respect to any Incremental Term Loans the purpose of which is to
finance a Permitted Acquisition, compliance with this clause (i) shall be tested at the time of the execution of the acquisition agreement related to such Permitted Acquisition if the Lenders and/or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental
Term Loans so agree; 
 (ii) each of the representations and warranties made by any Credit Party contained herein and in the other Credit
Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifiers set forth therein) with the same effect as though such representations and warranties has been made on and as of the Incremental Facility
Closing Date (except where such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality
qualifiers set forth therein) as of such earlier date); provided that, with respect to any Incremental Term Loans the purpose of which is to finance a Permitted Acquisition, compliance with this clause (ii) may be waived by the Lenders
and/or Additional Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, provided that the accuracy of the Specified Representations may not be waived without the consent of the Required Lenders; 

(iii) the Borrower shall be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Performance Covenants (for the avoidance of doubt, without
regard to whether Commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility have been terminated and/or Obligations thereunder are outstanding) as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are required to have
been delivered pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(b) (after giving effect to any Specified Transaction to be consummated in connection therewith and assuming that all Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases then outstanding were fully
drawn); and 
 (iv) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent any customary legal opinion,
modifications of Mortgages, officer’s certificates or other documents (including, without limitation, a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors of each applicable Credit Party authorizing the Incremental Term Loans or Incremental
Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, as applicable) reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

 (f) No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitment Increases unless it so agrees and the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer any existing Lender the opportunity to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increases. 

(g) Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section, each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment of such
Class immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (each, an “Incremental Revolving Credit
Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s
participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations
hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class (including each such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the
percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class. If, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Credit Loans of such Class
outstanding, such Revolving Credit Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in
Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Credit Loans of such Class being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.11. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately
preceding sentence. 
 (h) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.7 or 13.1 to the contrary. For the
avoidance of doubt, any provisions of this Section 2.14 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided no such amendment shall require any Lender to provide any Incremental Commitment without such Lender’s
consent. 
 2.15 Extensions of Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments.

 (i) (i) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of each Term Loan of any Class (an
“Existing Term Loan Class”) be converted or exchanged to extend the scheduled final maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which
have been so extended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.15. Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide
written notice to the Administrative Agent 

  
 98 







Table of Contents


 
(who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class, with such request offered equally to all such Lenders of such Existing Term Loan Class)
(a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which terms shall be similar to the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class from which they are to be extended
except that (w) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of all or a portion of any principal amount of such Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled
amortization of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in Section 2.5 or in the Extension Agreement or the
Incremental Agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class of Term Loans from which such Extended Term Loans were extended, in each case as more particularly set forth in Section 2.15(c) below), (x)(A) the interest
rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be different than those for the Term Loans
of such Existing Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent
provided in the applicable Extension Agreement, (y) subject to the provisions set forth in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, the Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and prepayment terms and premiums) and
mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and (z) the Extension Agreement may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Maturity Date. No Lender shall have any
obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Class converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of
Term Loans from the Existing Term Loan Class of Term Loans from which they were extended. 
 (ii) The Borrower may at any time and from time
to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class and/or the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class (and, in each case, including any previously extended Revolving Credit Commitments), existing at the
time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Credit Commitment” and any related revolving credit loans under any such facility, “Existing Revolving Credit Loans”; each Existing Revolving Credit Commitment and
related Existing Revolving Credit Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Revolving Credit Class”) be converted or exchanged to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of
principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Revolving Credit Loans related to such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so extended,
“Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and any related revolving credit loans, “Extended Revolving Credit Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.15. Prior to entering into any
Extension Agreement with respect to any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing
Revolving Credit Commitments, with such request offered equally to all Lenders of such Class) (a “Revolving Credit Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established
thereunder, which terms shall be similar to

those applicable to the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class”) except that
(w) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit
Commitment Class, (x)(A) the interest rates, interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those for
the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in addition to
or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (y)(1) the undrawn revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those for the Specified Existing
Revolving Credit Commitment Class and (2) the Extension Agreement may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Maturity Date; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 2.15, Section 5.2(e) or otherwise, (I) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of the Extended Revolving Credit Loans under any Extended Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings and repayments of the Existing Revolving Credit Loans of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable
Extension Agreement and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and repayment procedures of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class), (II) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and
Extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 13.6 and (III) subject to the applicable limitations set forth in Section 4.2 and Section 5.2(e)(ii), permanent
repayments of Extended Revolving Credit Loans (and corresponding permanent reduction in the related Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be permitted as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. No Lender shall have any
obligation to agree to have any of its Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of any Existing Revolving Credit Class converted or exchanged into Extended Revolving Credit Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to any
Extension Request. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of revolving credit commitments from Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment
Class and from any other Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so established on such date). 

(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days (or such
shorter period as the Administrative Agent may determine in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Class are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or
acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.15. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans or Revolving Credit
Commitments (or any earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) of an Existing Class subject to such Extension Request converted or exchanged into Extended Loans/Commitments shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension
Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such

Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (and/or any earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) which it has elected to convert or exchange into
Extended Loans/Commitments (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate amount of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments (and any earlier Extended Revolving Credit
Commitments) subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Loans/Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments or earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable,
subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to or exchanged to Extended Loans/Commitments on a pro rata basis (subject to such rounding requirements as may be established by the Administrative Agent) based on the amount of Term Loans,
Revolving Credit Commitments and earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments included in each such Extension Election or as may be otherwise agreed to in the applicable Extension Agreement. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving
Credit Commitment into an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, unless expressly agreed by the holders of each affected Existing Revolving Credit Commitment of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, such Extended Revolving Credit
Commitment shall not be treated more favorably than all Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender in respect of Swingline Loans
under Section 2.1(d) and Letters of Credit under Section 3, except that the applicable Extension Agreement may provide that the Swingline Maturity Date and/or the last day for issuing Letters of Credit may be extended and the related
obligations to make Swingline Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued (pursuant to mechanics to be specified in the applicable Extension Agreement) so long as the applicable Swingline Lender and/or the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer
have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension). 

(c) Extended Loans/Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Agreement”) to this Agreement
(which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.15(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 13.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the
Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans/Commitments established thereby) executed by the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by
Section 2.15(a), each Extension Agreement in respect of Extended Term Loans shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.5 or the applicable Incremental Agreement or Extension Agreement with respect to the Existing
Class of Term Loans from which the Extended Term Loans were exchanged to reduce each scheduled Repayment Amount for the Existing Class in the same proportion as the amount of Term Loans of the Existing Class is to be reduced pursuant to such
Extension Agreement (it being understood that the amount of any Repayment Amount payable with respect to any individual Term Loan of such Existing Class that is not an Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof). In connection with
any Extension Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (i) as to the enforceability of such Extension Agreement, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other
Credit Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Credit Documents as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence) and covering customary matters and (ii) to the effect that such Extension Agreement,
including the Extended Loans/Commitments provided for therein, does not breach or result in a default under the provisions of Section 13.1 of this Agreement.

 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on
which any Existing Term Loan Class or Class of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments is converted or exchanged to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with paragraph (a) above (an “Extension Date”),
(I) in the case of the existing Term Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans so converted or
exchanged by such Lender on such date, and the Extended Term Loans shall be established as a separate Class of Term Loans (together with any other Extended Term Loans so established on such date), and (II) in the case of the Existing Revolving
Credit Commitments of each Extending Lender under any Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate
principal amount of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so converted or exchanged by such Lender on such date (or by any greater amount as may be agreed by the Borrower and such Lender), and such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be
established as a separate Class of revolving credit commitments from the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and from any other Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so
established on such date) and (B) if, on any Extension Date, any Existing Revolving Credit Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, such Existing Revolving Credit Loans (and
any related participations) shall be deemed to be converted or exchanged to Extended Revolving Credit Loans (and related participations) of the applicable Class in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Revolving
Credit Commitments to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class. 
 (e) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in
its sole discretion that the allocation of Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series or the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Extension Series, in each case to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest
administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such
affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension
Agreement”) within 15 days following the effective date of such Extension Agreement, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Agreement shall (i) provide for the conversion or exchange and extension of Term Loans under the
Existing Term Loan Class or Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (and related Revolving Credit Exposure), as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments
(and related revolving credit exposure) of the applicable Extension Series into which such other Term Loans or commitments were initially converted or exchanged, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative
error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans or Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Agreement, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the
satisfaction of such

in Section 2.15(c)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.15(c). 

(f) No conversion or exchange of Loans or Commitments pursuant to any Extension Agreement in accordance with this Section 2.15 shall
constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

any Lender to provide any Extended Loans/Commitments without such Lender’s consent.

Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

Section 4.1(f); 
 (b) the Commitment of and the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in
determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 13.1); provided that (i) any
waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (ii) the
Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender; 
 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or

limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage;
provided that (A) each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (B) neither
such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have
against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender, (ii) to the extent that all or any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure
and Swingline Exposure cannot, or can only partially, be so reallocated to Non-Defaulting Lenders, whether by reason of the first proviso in Section 2.16(c)(i) above or otherwise, the Borrower shall within two Business Days following notice by
the Administrative

Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) and (y) second, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting
Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above), in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.8 for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is
outstanding, (iii) if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to the requirements of this Section 2.16(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.1(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is Cash Collateralized, (iv) if the Letter of
Credit Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to the requirements of this Section 2.16(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 4.1(c) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting
Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.1(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure during the
period that such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is reallocated, or (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to the requirements of this
Section 2.16(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 4.1(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall
be payable to the Letter of Credit Issuer until such Letter of Credit Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated; 
 (d) (i) (i) the
Letter of Credit Issuer will not be required to issue any new Letter of Credit or amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend the expiry date thereof, unless the Letter of
Credit Issuer is reasonably satisfied that any exposure that would result from the exposure to such Defaulting Lender is eliminated or fully covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders or by Cash Collateralization or a
combination thereof in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.16(c) above or otherwise in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Letter of Credit Issuer; and 

(ii) the Swingline Lender will not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless the Swingline Lender is reasonably satisfied that any
exposure that would result from the exposure to such Defaulting Lender is eliminated or fully covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders or a combination thereof in accordance with the requirements of
Section 2.16(c) above; 
 (e) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving
Credit Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender that is 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, such Lender will, to the extent applicable with respect to a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender, purchase
at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of the other Revolving Credit Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause such outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and funded and
unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata

Section 2.16(c) shall be reallocated back to such 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; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of
any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender; and 
 (f) With respect to a Defaulting
Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender, 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
Section 11 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.8), 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, in the case of a Revolving Credit Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that
Defaulting Lender to each Letter of Credit Issuer and the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, 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; fourth, other than in the case of a Term Lender, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a
non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize, in
accordance with Section 3.8, the Letter of Credit Issuer’s potential future fronting exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuers or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, such Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender against that Defaulting
Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries pursuant to any Secured Hedging Agreement with such Defaulting Lender as certified by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Defaulting Lender) prior to such date of payment;
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 such payment is a payment of
the principal amount of any Loans or Unpaid Drawings, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of, and Unpaid Drawings owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied in the manner set
forth in this Section 2.16(f). 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 Section 3.8 shall

 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the
Letter of Credit Obligations at such time, would exceed the Letter of Credit Sub-Commitment then in effect, (ii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letter of Credit Obligations and the Revolving
Credit Loans and Swingline Loans outstanding at such time, would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect, (iii) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date occurring no later than the earlier of (x) in the case
of a standby Letter of Credit one year after the date of issuance (or renewal) thereof, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer or as provided under Section 3.2(e), and (y) the Letter of
Credit Maturity Date, (iv) each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, (v) no Letter of Credit shall be issued if it would be illegal under any Applicable Law for the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit to have a Letter of
Credit issued in its favor, and (vi) no Letter of Credit shall be issued after the Letter of Credit Issuer has received a written notice from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent stating that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing until such time as the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have received a written notice of (x) rescission of such notice from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or (y) the waiver of such Default or Event

(a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued (or amended, renewed or extended), it shall give the Administrative Agent
and the Letter of Credit Issuer a Letter of Credit Request by no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) (i) at least three (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer)
Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension for any Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor (provided that such Subsidiary Guarantor shall have also signed the applicable
Letter of Credit Request), (ii) at least five (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension for
any Letter of Credit for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Domestic Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor and (iii) at least ten (or such lesser number as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit
Issuer) Business Days prior to the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension for any Letter of Credit for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Credit Party. Each notice shall be executed by the
Borrower and shall be in the form of Exhibit E (each, a “Letter of Credit Request”). 
 (b) In the case of a request
for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall specify: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the Stated 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) such other matters as the Letter of Credit Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall

Administrative Agent in writing that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request from the applicable Borrower and, if not, the Letter of Credit Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.
Unless the Letter of Credit Issuer has received written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Credit Party, at least two Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter
of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Sections 6 and 7 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the
account of the applicable Borrower (or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the terms hereof. 

(d) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower that the Letter of Credit
may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Section 3.1(b).

Table of Contents


 (e) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Request, the Letter of Credit
Issuer may agree to issue a standby 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 Letter of
Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the
Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of
Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Letter of Credit 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 Section 3.1(b) or otherwise), or (B) it has
received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have elected not to
permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 7 are not then satisfied, and in each such case directing
the Letter of Credit Issuer not to permit such extension. 
 (f) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment,
renewal or extension to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Letter of Credit Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal
or extension. On the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, each Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide the Administrative Agent a list of all Letters of Credit issued by it that are outstanding at such time. 

3.3 Letter of Credit Participations. 

(a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have
sold and transferred to each other Revolving Credit Lender (each such Revolving Credit Lender, in its capacity under this Section 3.3(a), a “Letter of Credit Participant”), and each such Letter of Credit Participant shall be
deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (each, a “Letter of Credit Participation”), to the extent
of such Letter of Credit Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect
thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees will be paid directly to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Letter of Credit Participants as provided in Section 4.1(c) and
the Letter of Credit Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Letter of Credit Issuers in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder.

 (b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall
have no obligation relative to the Letter of Credit Participants other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of
such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not
create for the Letter of Credit Issuer any resulting liability. 
 (c) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment in respect of
an unpaid reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the Letter of Credit Participants, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Administrative
Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Letter of Credit Participant that has paid its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such reimbursement obligation, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, an amount equal to
such Letter of Credit Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded or deposited by such Letter of Credit Participant to the aggregate amount funded or deposited by all Letter of Credit Participants) of
the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective Letter of Credit Participations. 

(d) The obligations of the Letter of Credit Participants to purchase Letter of Credit Participations from the Letter of Credit Issuer and make
payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever
and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including under any of the following circumstances: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents; 

(ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a
Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Lender or other Person, whether in connection with this
Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated hereby or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit); 

(iii) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any 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; 
 (iv) the surrender or impairment of any
security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or 
 (v) the occurrence of any Default or
Event of Default; 
 provided, however, that no Letter of Credit Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any unreimbursed amount arising from any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting
willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer.

 3.4 Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings. 

(a) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer in Dollars with respect to any drawing under any Letter of Credit, by
making payment, whether with its own funds, with the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans or any other source, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer in immediately available funds, for any payment or disbursement
made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued by it (each such amount so paid until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”) (i) within one Business Day of the date of such payment or disbursement, if the Letter
of Credit Issuer provides notice to the Borrower of such payment or disbursement prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on such next succeeding Business Day after the date of such payment or disbursement or (ii) if such notice is
received after such time, on the next Business Day following the date of receipt of such notice (such required date for reimbursement under clause (i) or (ii), as applicable (the “Required Reimbursement Date”), with interest on
the amount so paid or disbursed by such Letter of Credit Issuer, from and including the date of such payment or disbursement to but excluding the Required Reimbursement Date, at the per annum rate for each day equal to the rate described in
Section 2.8(a); provided that, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to any Letter of Credit, (i) unless the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit
Issuer prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Required Reimbursement Date that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for the amount of such drawing with funds other than the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans,
the Borrower shall be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing requesting that the Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments make Revolving Credit Loans (which shall be ABR Loans) on the Required Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the amount
of such drawing, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Letter of Credit Participant of such drawing and the amount of its Revolving Credit Loan to be made in respect thereof, and each Letter of Credit Participant shall be
irrevocably obligated to make a Revolving Credit Loan to the Borrower in the manner deemed to have been requested in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the applicable Unpaid Drawing by 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such
Required Reimbursement Date by making the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent. Such Revolving Credit Loans made in respect of such Unpaid Drawing on such Required Reimbursement Date shall be made without regard
to the Minimum Borrowing Amount and without regard to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 7. The Administrative Agent shall use the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans solely for the purpose of reimbursing the Letter of
Credit Issuer for the related Unpaid Drawing. If and to the extent such Letter of Credit Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, such Letter of Credit Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand, such amount, together with interest thereon for each day from
such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time then in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar
fees customarily charged by the Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the foregoing. The failure of any Letter of Credit Participant to make 

  
 110 







Table of Contents


 
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any
other Letter of Credit Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any payment under such Letter of Credit on the
date required, as specified above, but no Letter of Credit Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Letter of Credit Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Letter of Credit Participant’s
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of any such payment. 
 (b) The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 3.4 to reimburse
the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment that the
Borrower or any other Person may have or have had against the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including in its capacity as a Letter of Credit Participant), including any defense based upon the failure of any drawing
under a Letter of Credit (each, a “Drawing”) to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing; provided that the Borrower shall not be
obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under the Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part
of the Letter of Credit Issuer as determined in the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 
3.5 Increased Costs. If a Change in Law shall either (a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by the Letter of
Credit Issuer, or any Letter of Credit Participant’s Letter of Credit Participation therein or (b) impose on the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Letter of Credit Participant any other conditions affecting its obligations under this
Agreement in respect of Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Participations therein or any Letter of Credit or such Letter of Credit Participant’s Letter of Credit Participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of
Credit Participant hereunder (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to (i) taxes indemnified under Section 5.4, (ii) taxes described in clause (A), (B) or (C) of Section 5.4(a) or (iii) taxes
described in Section 5.4(f) in respect of Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Participations therein, then, promptly after receipt of written demand to the Borrower by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant, as the
case may be (a copy of which notice shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant for such increased cost or reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that the Letter of Credit Issuer or a Letter of Credit
Participant shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Person’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such Applicable Law that would have existed in the event that a Change in Law had
not occurred. A certificate submitted to the Borrower by the Letter of Credit Issuer or a Letter of Credit Participant, as the case may be (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by the Letter of

Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant to the Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary
to compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Letter of Credit Participant as aforesaid shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent clearly demonstrable error. 

3.6 New or Successor Letter of Credit Issuer. 

(a) Any Letter of Credit Issuer may resign as a Letter of Credit Issuer upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative
Agent, the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower. Subject to the terms of the following sentence, the Borrower may replace the Letter of Credit Issuer for any reason upon written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer
and the Borrower may add Letter of Credit Issuers at any time upon notice to the Administrative Agent and with the agreement of such new Letter of Credit Issuer. If the Letter of Credit Issuer shall resign or be replaced, or if the Borrower shall
decide to add a new Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement, then the Borrower may appoint a successor issuer of Letters of Credit or a new Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent
not to be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor issuer shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the replaced or resigning Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, or such new issuer of Letters
of Credit shall be granted the rights, powers and duties of a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, and the term “Letter of Credit Issuer” shall mean such successor or such new issuer of Letters of Credit effective upon such appointment. At
the time such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay to the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Sections 4.1(c) and 4.1(d). The acceptance of any appointment
as a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, whether as a successor issuer or new issuer of Letters of Credit in accordance with this Agreement, shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such new or successor issuer of Letters of Credit, in a
form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, such new or successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall become a “Letter of Credit Issuer” hereunder. After the
resignation or replacement of a Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder, the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Letter of Credit Issuer under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or amend or renew Existing Letters of Credit. In
connection with any resignation or replacement pursuant to this clause (a) (but, in case of any such resignation, only to the extent that a successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall have been appointed), either (i) the Borrower, the
resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer and the successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall arrange to have any outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer replaced with Letters of Credit issued by
the successor issuer of Letters of Credit or (ii) the Borrower shall cause the successor issuer of Letters of Credit, if such successor issuer is reasonably satisfactory to the replaced or resigning Letter of Credit Issuer, to issue
“back-stop” Letters of Credit naming the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer as beneficiary for each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer, which new Letters of Credit shall have
a face amount equal to the Letters of Credit being back-stopped, and the sole requirement for drawing on such new Letters of Credit shall be a drawing on the corresponding back-stopped Letters of Credit. After any resigning or replaced Letter of
Credit Issuer’s resignation or replacement as

Letter of Credit Issuer, the provisions of this Agreement relating to a Letter of Credit Issuer shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it (A) while it
was a Letter of Credit Issuer under this Agreement or (B) at any time with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer. 

(b) To the extent that there are, at the time of any resignation or replacement as set forth in clause (a) above, any outstanding Letters
of Credit, nothing herein shall be deemed to impact or impair any rights and obligations of any of the parties hereto with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, any obligations related to the payment of fees
or the reimbursement or funding of amounts drawn), except that the Borrower, the resigning or replaced Letter of Credit Issuer and the successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall have the obligations regarding outstanding Letters of Credit described
in clause (a) above. 
 3.7 Role of Letter of Credit Issuer. Each Revolving Credit Lender and
the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective
Affiliates or any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Letter of Credit 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 Required Lenders or the
Required Revolving Credit 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 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 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 Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent,
any of their respective Affiliates or any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 3.3(d); provided that anything in such Section to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the Letter of Credit Issuer, and the Letter of Credit 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 caused by the Letter of Credit Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit 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 Letter of Credit 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.

be, or is required to be, delivered hereunder. 
 (b) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Required Revolving Credit
Lenders may require that the Letter of Credit Obligations be Cash Collateralized; provided that, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in Section 11.1(e), the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the Letters of

Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Revolving Credit Lenders). Derivatives of such terms have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuers and the Letter of Credit Participants, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked,
interest bearing deposit accounts with the Administrative Agent.

3.10 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.

Restricted 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 Restricted Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Letter of
Credit 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 Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the

reduction, (b) any such termination or reduction shall apply proportionately and permanently to reduce the Commitments of each of the Lenders of such Class, except that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the Borrower may allocate any
termination or reduction of Commitments among Classes of Commitments at its direction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to the Commitments with respect to any Class of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments without any termination or reduction
of the Commitments with respect to any Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the same Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class) and (2) in connection with the establishment on any date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments
pursuant to Section 2.15, the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of any one or more Lenders providing any such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on such date shall be reduced in an amount equal to the amount of Specified Existing
Revolving Credit Commitments so extended on such date (or, if agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, by any greater amount so long as the Borrower prepays the Existing Revolving Credit Loans of
such Class owed to such Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to the extent necessary to ensure that after giving effect to such repayment or reduction, the Existing Revolving Credit Loans of such Class are held by the Lenders
of such Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with their Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class after giving effect to such reduction) (provided that (x) after giving effect to any such reduction and to the repayment of

any

(d) after giving effect to such termination or reduction and to any prepayments of Loans or cancellation or Cash Collateralization of Letters of Credit made on the date thereof in accordance with this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the
Lenders’ revolving credit exposures for such Class shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment for such Class and (e) if, after giving effect to any reduction hereunder, the Letter of Credit Commitment or the Swingline
Commitment exceeds the sum of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, such Commitment shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. 

(b) Upon at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative
Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, on any day, permanently to terminate or reduce the Letter of
Credit Sub-Commitment in whole or in part; provided that, after giving effect to such termination or reduction, the Letter of Credit Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sub-Commitment.

under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Letter of
Credit Issuer, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

5.1 Voluntary Prepayments. 

(a) The Borrower shall have the right to prepay Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans,

and each partial prepayment of Swingline Loans shall be in a multiple of $100,000 and in an aggregate principal amount of at least $100,000; provided that no partial prepayment of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall
reduce the outstanding Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount for Eurodollar Loans; and (c) any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 on any day other than
the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto shall be subject to compliance by the Borrower with the applicable provisions of Section 2.11. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and
Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. Each prepayment in respect of any Class of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 shall be applied to reduce the Repayment Amounts in such order as the Borrower may determine and may be applied to any Class of
Term Loans as directed by the Borrower; provided that the Borrower (i) may prepay Term Loans of an Existing Term Loan Class pursuant to this Section 5.1 without any requirement to prepay Extended Term Loans that were converted or
exchanged from such Existing Term Loans Class and (ii) may not prepay Extended Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.1 unless the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted are also
prepaid ratably (or more than ratably) with such Extended Term Loans. In the event that the Borrower does not specify the order in which to apply prepayments to reduce Repayment Amounts or as between Classes of Term Loans, the Borrower shall be
deemed to have elected that such proceeds be applied to reduce the Repayment Amounts in direct order of maturity and/or a pro-rata basis among Term Loan Classes. All prepayments under this Section 5.1 shall also be subject to the provisions of
Sections 5.2(d) and 5.2(e). At the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.1, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Loan of a Defaulting Lender.

such date that are subject to an effective pricing reduction pursuant to such Repricing Transaction. Such fees shall be due and payable upon the date of the effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction. For the avoidance of doubt, on and after the
date that is six months following the Closing Date, no fee shall be payable pursuant to this Section 
5.1(b).

Lien on the Collateral not ranking junior to the Liens on such Collateral securing the Obligations (but without regard to the control of remedies), in each case to the extent the documentation with respect to which requires the issuer or borrower
under such Indebtedness to prepay or make an offer to prepay, redeem, repurchase or defease such Indebtedness with the proceeds of such Prepayment Event, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (x) the amount of such Net Cash
Proceeds multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Permitted Equal Priority Refinancing Debt and Permitted Additional Debt secured by a Lien on the Collateral ranking not junior to the Liens
on such Collateral securing the Obligations (but without regard to control of remedies) and with respect to which such a requirement to prepay or make an offer to prepay, redeem, repurchase or defease exists and the denominator of which is the sum
of the outstanding principal amount of such Permitted Equal Priority Refinancing Debt and Permitted Additional Debt and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

thereof, of the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class, if any, from which such Extended Term Loans were converted or exchanged (or such Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class have otherwise been repaid in full). 

(ii) With respect to each such prepayment required by Section 5.2(a)(i) and Section 5.2(a)(ii), (A) the Borrower will, not
later than the date specified in Section 5.2(a) for offering to make such prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent provide notice of such prepayment to
each Lender of Term Loans and the Administrative Agent will promptly provide such notice to each Lender of Term Loans, (B) other than if such prepayment arises due to a Specified Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event, each Lender of Term Loans will
have the right to refuse any such prepayment by giving written notice of such refusal to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower within five Business Days after such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of such prepayment
(and the Borrower shall not prepay any Term Loans until the date that is specified in clause (D) below) (such refused amounts, the “First Refused Proceeds”), (C) subject to the Lenders’ right to decline such offer as
set forth in clause (B), the First Refused Proceeds shall then be offered to prepay to the Term Loans of the remaining non-refusing Lenders on a pro rata basis, (D) the Borrower will make all such prepayments not so refused upon the fifteenth
Business Day after the Lender received first notice of repayment from the Administrative Agent and (E) thereafter, to the extent any First Refused Proceeds are not applied pursuant to the foregoing clauses (C) and (D) such amounts may
be retained by the Borrower (the “Retained Refused Proceeds”) (it being understood that if no Term Loans are outstanding at the time the notice referenced in clause (A) above is required to be delivered, such prepayment shall
be deemed Retained Refused Proceeds without any further action by the Borrower for purposes of this Section 5.2(c)(ii)).

 (d) Application to Term Loans. 

(i) With respect to each prepayment of Term Loans elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.1 or pursuant to a Debt Incurrence
Prepayment Event, such prepayments shall be applied to reduce Repayment Amounts in such order as the Borrower may specify (or, if not specified, in direct order of maturity) and the Borrower may designate the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid
and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made; provided that the Borrower pays any amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 with respect to prepayments of Eurodollar Loans made on any date other than the last
day of the applicable Interest Period. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in a manner that minimizes the amount of
payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11. 
 (ii) With respect to each prepayment of Term Loans by the
Borrower required pursuant to Section 5.2(a) (other than a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event), such prepayments shall be applied to reduce Repayment Amounts in direct order of maturity and on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans
(other than any Class of Term Loans that has agreed to receive less than a pro rata share of any such mandatory prepayment) being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans; provided that, if
no Lender exercises the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 5.2(c)(ii), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans
that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11. 

(e) Application to Revolving Credit Loans; Mandatory Commitment Reduction. 

(i) With respect to each prepayment of Revolving Credit Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Loans elected by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.1 or required by Section 5.2(b), the Borrower may designate (i) the Class and Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made and (ii) the Revolving Credit Loans or Extended
Revolving Credit Loans to be prepaid; provided that (x) Eurodollar Loans may be designated for prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.2 only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all Eurodollar Loans with
Interest Periods ending on such date of required prepayment and all ABR Loans have been paid in full; (y) each prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans of such Class (except that any
prepayment made in connection with a reduction of the Commitments of such Class pursuant to Section 4.2 shall be applied pro rata based on the amount of the reduction in the Commitments of such Class of each applicable Lender); and
(z) notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding clause (y), at the option of the Borrower, no prepayment made pursuant to Section 5.1 or Section 5.2(b) of Revolving Credit Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Loans shall be
applied to the Loans of any Defaulting Lender. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in a manner that minimizes the amount
of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11.

 (ii) With respect to each mandatory reduction and termination of Revolving Credit Commitments
(and any earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) required by clause (i)(y) or in connection with the Incurrence of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance any Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Extended Revolving
Credit Commitments, the Borrower may designate (A) the Classes of Commitments to be reduced and terminated and (B) the corresponding Classes of Loans to be prepaid; provided that (x) any such reduction and termination shall apply
proportionately and permanently to reduce the Commitments of each of the Lenders within any such Class and (y) after giving effect to such termination or reduction and to any prepayments of Loans or cancellation or cash collateralization of
letters of credit made on the date of each such reduction and termination in accordance with this Agreement, the aggregate amount of such Lenders’ credit exposures shall not exceed the remaining Commitments of such Lenders’ in respect of
the Class reduced and terminated. In connection with any such termination or reduction, to the extent necessary, the participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans may be required to be reallocated and related loans
outstanding prepaid and then reborrowed, in each case in the manner contemplated by Section 2.14(f)(ii) (as modified to account for a termination or reduction, as opposed to an increase, of such Commitment). 

(f) Eurodollar Interest Periods. In lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 5.2 in respect of any Eurodollar Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the
Eurodollar Loan to be prepaid and such Eurodollar Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on
terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the Obligations, provided that the Borrower may at any time direct
that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 5.2. 
 (g) Minimum Amount. No
prepayment shall be required pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) (except to the extent such prepayment arises due to a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event) unless and until the amount at any time of Net Cash Proceeds from Prepayment Events required to
be offered at or prior to such time pursuant to such Section and not yet offered at or prior to such time to prepay Term Loans pursuant to such Section exceeds (i) $5,000,000 for any single Prepayment Event or series of related Prepayment
Events and (ii) $10,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Prepayment Events in any fiscal year, at which time the entirety of such amount will be applied as provided in Section 5.2(a)(i), with the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds
being deemed for such purpose to be the date such thresholds set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (g) are met. 

(h) Foreign Asset Sales. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.2, (i) to the extent that any of or all the
Net Cash Proceeds of any asset sale by a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to an Asset Sale Prepayment Event (a “Foreign Asset Sale”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any Recovery Event from a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary (a
“Foreign Recovery Event”) or Excess Cash Flow, are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so

affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 5.2 but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary so long, but
only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions required by the applicable local law to
permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or
Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans (and, if applicable,
such other Indebtedness as is contemplated by this Section 5.2) pursuant to this Section 5.2 and (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign
Asset Sale, any Foreign Recovery Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the
applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (ii), (X) the Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate such material adverse tax consequences and (Y) on or before the date
on which any Net Cash Proceeds from any Foreign Asset Sale or Foreign Recovery Event so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to Section 5.2(a) (or, in the case of Excess Cash Flow, a
date on or before the date that is three months after the date such Excess Cash Flow would have been so required to be applied to prepayments pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) unless previously repatriated in which case such repatriated Excess
Cash Flow shall have been promptly applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 5.2(a)), (x) the Borrower applies an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if
such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the Borrower rather than such Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess
Cash Flow had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of
Indebtedness of a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary. 
 5.3 Method and Place of Payment. 

(a) All payments under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. Except as
otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the
Swingline Lender (except to the extent payments are to be made directly to the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender), as the case may be, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when due and shall be made in
immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower’s account at the
Administrative Agent’s Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by
the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day and, if not, on the next Business Day in the

Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto or to the Letter of Credit Issuer or the
Swingline Lender, as applicable. 
 (b) For purposes of computing interest or fees, any payments under this Agreement that are made later
than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (and the Administrative Agent may extend such deadline in its discretion whether or not
such payments are in process). Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. 

5.4 Net Payments. 

(a) Except as required by law, all payments made by or on behalf of any Credit Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be
made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any current or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected,
withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (including any interest, additions to tax and penalties) (collectively, “Taxes”) excluding in the case of each Lender and each Agent and except as otherwise provided in
Section 5.4(f), (A) net income Taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income Taxes) imposed on such Agent or such Lender as a result of a present or former connection between such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction
imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising from such Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or
enforced, or engaged in any other transactions pursuant to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document), (B) any branch profits Taxes imposed by the United States of America or any similar Tax imposed by any other jurisdiction described in
clause (A) and (C) any U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to FATCA (collectively, “Excluded Taxes”). If any such Taxes that are not Excluded Taxes are imposed on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any
obligation of any Credit Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld by a Withholding Agent from any amounts payable under this Agreement or any other Credit Document,
the applicable Credit Party shall increase the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes including those applicable
to any amounts payable under this Section 5.4) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in such Credit Document. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by any Credit Party, as promptly
as possible thereafter, the applicable Credit Party shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt, if available (or other evidence
acceptable to such Lender, acting reasonably) received by the applicable Credit Party showing payment thereof. The agreements in this Section 5.4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder.

mortgage, recording, excise, property or intangible taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made by such Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Documents or from the execution, enforcement, delivery or registration or
recordation of, performance under, perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 

(c) 
 (d) (i) Subject to
Section 5.4(f), the Credit Parties shall indemnify each Lender and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or
asserted (whether or not correctly or legally asserted) by any jurisdiction on any additional amounts or indemnities payable under this Section 5.4, imposed on or paid by such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability
(including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 10 days from the date such Lender or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

 (ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand
therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded Taxes and without
limiting the obligation of Credit Parties to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.6(d)(ii) relating to the maintenance of a
Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and
any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered
to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other
Credit Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). 
 (d) Each Lender shall, at such times as are
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by any Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
(i) as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding or (ii) as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding or information
reporting requirements. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so.

Notwithstanding anything foregoing to the contrary, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 5.4(d)(i), 5.4(e) and
5.4(g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial
position of such Lender. Without limiting the foregoing to the extent permitted by law, each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall: 

(i) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to
time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two originals of either (w) in the case of Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with

related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code) substantially in the form of Exhibit L (a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”)), (x) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, in either case, claiming an exemption from U.S. federal withholding Tax under an applicable income tax treaty, or Form W-8ECI, (y) to the extent a
Non-U.S. Lender is not the Beneficial Owner (for example, where the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Non-U.S.
Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information from each Beneficial Owner, as applicable (provided that, if one or more Beneficial Owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax
Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Non-U.S. Lender on behalf of such Beneficial Owner), or (z) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income Tax laws (including

Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding Tax on payments by the Borrower under this Agreement; and 

(ii) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further originals of any such form or certification (or any applicable successor
form) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate and promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower, unless in
any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required that renders any such form inapplicable or would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any
such form with respect to it. 
 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer
in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certification to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

 (e) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document would be
subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender
shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or
has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 5.4(e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after
the date of this Agreement. 
 (f) No Credit Party shall be required to indemnify any Lender or Agent pursuant to Section 5.4(c), or to

or Letter of Credit or changed its lending office; provided, however, that this Section 5.4(f) shall not apply to the extent that (x) the indemnity payments or additional amounts any Lender would be entitled to receive
(without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the person making the assignment or change in lending office would have been entitled to receive immediately prior to such assignment or change in
lending office, or (y) such assignment had been requested by a Credit Party or (ii) Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 5.4(d) or 5.4(g). 

(g) Each Lender that is organized in the United States of America or any state thereof or the District of Columbia shall (A) on or prior
to the date such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or
certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this Section 5.4(g) and (D) from time to time if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant, the relevant Lender), provide the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of a participant, the relevant Lender) with two duly completed and signed originals of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (certifying that
such Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax) or any successor form. 
 (h) If any Lender or the Administrative
Agent determines in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of a Non-Excluded Tax or Other Taxes for which a payment has been made by a Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement, which refund in the good faith
judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by such Credit Party, then such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Credit Party for such amount
(together with any interest received thereon from any Governmental Authority) as such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, reasonably determines to be the proportion of the refund as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no
better or worse position than it would have been in if the payment had not been required; provided that the Credit Party, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Credit Party (with interest

and penalties) in the event such Lender or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be
obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to any Credit Party in connection with this paragraph (h) or any other provision of this Section 5.4; provided, further, that nothing in this
Section 5.4 shall obligate any Lender (or Transferee) or the Administrative Agent to apply for any refund. 
 (i) For purpose of this
Section 
5.4, the term “Lender” shall include any Swingline Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer. 
 5.5
 Computations of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days and, in the case of ABR Loans determined by reference to the Prime Rate, 365/366 days,
in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. 

5.6 Limit on Rate of Interest. 

(a) No Payment Shall Exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any
interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any Applicable Law. 

(b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment that it otherwise would be required to make, as a
result of Section 5.6(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with Applicable Law. 

(c) Adjustment if Any Payment Exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would
obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any Applicable Law, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be
deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by Applicable Law (in the case of the Borrower), such adjustment to be effected, to the extent
necessary, as follows: 
 (i) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender
under Section 2.8; and 
 (ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid by the
Borrower to the affected Lender. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have
received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any Applicable Law, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent, to obtain reimbursement from such Lender in an amount equal to such
excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by such Lender to the Borrower.

to any self-insurance which the Borrower believes (in the good faith judgment of management of the Borrower) is reasonable and prudent in light of the size and nature of its business) and against at least such risks (and with such risk retentions)
as are usually insured against in the same general area by companies engaged in businesses similar to those engaged by the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries; and will furnish to the Administrative Agent for further delivery to the Lenders,
upon written request from the Administrative Agent, information presented in reasonable detail as to the insurance so carried. The Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be the additional insured on any such liability
insurance and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be the additional loss payee or additional mortgagee under any such casualty or property insurance, except in each case as the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
may otherwise agree and the Administrative Agent shall communicate in writing to the Collateral Agent. The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause all such insurance (i) to provide that the relevant insurer shall endeavor to

claims in respect of taxes imposed, assessed or levied that, if unpaid, could reasonably be expected to become a material Lien upon any properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that the failure to do so could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; provided that none of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim that is being diligently contested in good
faith and by proper proceedings if it has maintained adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP.

the extent and in the manner customary for companies in the industry in which the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries conduct business and consistent with third party leases, except in each case to the extent the failure to do so could not be
reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower will, and will cause each of the other TN Credit Parties to, if it or any other TN Credit Party shall create or assume any Lien upon any of its property or assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, other than Liens permitted pursuant

 (d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Collateral Agent and the Borrower
reasonably determine in writing that the cost of creating or perfecting any Lien on any property is excessive in relation to the benefits afforded to the Lenders thereby, then such property may be excluded from the Collateral for all purposes of the
Credit Documents. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower shall not be required to take any actions outside the
United States to (i) create any security interest in assets titled or located outside the United States or (ii) perfect or make enforceable any security interests in any Collateral. 

(f) The Borrower shall, and shall cause the Guarantors and the other Restricted Subsidiaries to, complete each action set forth on Schedule
9.14(f) within the timeframe set forth therein for such action (or within such longer timeframe as the Administrative Agent may permit in its sole discretion) (it being understood and agreed that all representations, warranties and covenants of the
Credit Documents with respect to the completion of such action are qualified by the non-completion of such action until such time as such action is completed or required to be completed in accordance with this Section 9.14(f)). 

9.15 Designation of Subsidiaries. The Board of Directors of the Borrower may at any time designate
any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (a) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, (b) immediately after giving effect to such designation, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Performance Covenants (for the avoidance of doubt, without regard
to whether Commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility have been terminated and/or Obligations thereunder are outstanding) as such ratio is recomputed on the last day of the Test Period most recently ended on or prior to such date of
designation, calculated as if such designation occurred as of the first day of such Test Period, (c) no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it was previously designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary and then
redesignated as a Restricted Subsidiary and (d) no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a “Restricted Subsidiary” for the purposes of the Existing Notes Indenture, the Senior Notes Indenture
or any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof or any other material Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Closing Date shall
constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Borrower’s investment therein and shall be subject to Section 10.5. The designation of any Unrestricted
Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute the Incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and shall be subject to Section 10.1, 10.2 and 10.5. 

9.16 Maintenance of Ratings. The Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the
public credit rating for the Credit Facilities issued by S&P and the public credit rating for the Credit Facilities issued by Moody’s, and the Borrower’s public corporate credit rating issued by S&P and public corporate family
credit rating issued by Moody’s to each be maintained (but not to obtain or maintain a specific rating).

(versus the Lenders), the Revolving Credit Commitments (versus the Commitments), the Revolving Credit Loans and the Swingline Loans (versus the Loans), and the Letters of Credit. 

11.2 Application of Proceeds. After the exercise of any rights or remedies provided for in
Section 11.1 (or after the Loans and all Obligations have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in the proviso of the penultimate unnumbered paragraph of Section 11.1), any amounts received by the Administrative
Agent or the Collateral Agent on account of the Obligations shall be applied as follows: 
 (i) FIRST, to the payment of all
reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with any sale, collection or realization of the Collateral or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, the
other Credit Documents or any of the Obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent
under any Security Document or any other Credit Document on behalf of any Credit Party and any other reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any
other Credit Document; 
 (ii) SECOND, to the Secured Parties, an amount equal to the sum of (x) all Obligations
constituting accrued and unpaid interest and fees owing to them and (y) all Cash Management and Hedging Obligations constituting unpaid fees, premiums, and scheduled periodic payments then due and owing to them, in each case, on the date of any
such distribution, and, if such moneys shall be insufficient to pay such amounts in full, then ratably (without priority of any one over any other) to such Secured Parties in proportion to the unpaid amounts thereof; 

(iii) THIRD, to the Secured Parties, an amount equal to all Obligations (other than those described in clause SECOND above)
owing to them on the date of any such distribution, and, if such moneys shall be insufficient to pay such amounts in full, then ratably (without priority of any one over any other) to such Secured Parties in proportion to the unpaid amounts thereof;
and

 (iv) FOURTH, any surplus then remaining shall be paid to the Borrower or to
whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the
payments pursuant to clause FIRST above, if a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (including a Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement) has been entered into among the holders of Obligations that provides for the application of proceeds received by the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral, then such proceeds shall be applied pursuant to the terms of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement
(including a Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement) and in making the determination and allocations required in any Customary Intercreditor Agreement the Collateral Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the applicable authorized
representatives thereunder as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to such Obligations and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any liability to any of the Secured
Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information. 
 SECTION 12. The Administrative Agent and
the Collateral Agent. 
 12.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints Citi as Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under
the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with
such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or
any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.
Each Joint Lead Arranger, in its capacity as such, shall not have any liability, obligations, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 12. The Syndication Agent and Documentation
Agents, in their respective capacities as such, shall not have any liability, obligations, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Section 12. Each Lender hereby appoints Citi (together with
any successor Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 12.11) as the Collateral Agent hereunder and authorizes the Collateral Agent to (i) take such action on its behalf and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies and perform the duties as
are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent under such Credit Documents and (iii) exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. For purposes of the exculpatory, liability-limiting and other similar provisions of this
Section 12, references to the “Administrative Agent” shall be deemed to include the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such. 

12.2 Limited Duties. Under the Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent (i) is acting solely
on behalf of the Lenders (except to the limited extent provided in Section 2.5(e)), with duties that are entirely administrative in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative Agent,” the terms
“agent,” “administrative agent” and “collateral agent” and 

  
 184 







Table of Contents


 
similar terms in any Credit Document to refer to the Administrative Agent, which terms are used for title purposes only, (ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Credit Document other
than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or any other Secured Party and (iii) shall have no implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities under any
Credit Document, and each Lender hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on the roles, duties and legal relationships expressly disclaimed in clauses (i) through (iii) above. 

12.3 Binding Effect. Each Lender agrees that (i) any action taken by the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders (or, if expressly required hereby, a greater proportion of the Lenders) or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Documents, (ii) any action taken by the Administrative Agent
in reliance upon the instructions of Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders and (iii) the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required,
such greater proportion) or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties. 

12.4 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or
misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 12.5 Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action taken by it in good faith in connection with the entry into, or any amendment of, any Customary Intercreditor Agreement contemplated by
the terms hereof (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, any
Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent
under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for any failure of the Borrower, any
Guarantor or any other Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements
contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower. 

12.6 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex, electronic mail message or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be
genuine and correct and 

  
 185 







Table of Contents


 
to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts
selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment,
negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (and
such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans, except to the extent that a greater proportion of Lenders is required pursuant to Section 13.1).

 12.7 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice
of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such
notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a written notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall take
such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may
(but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (except to the extent that this Agreement requires
that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable). 
 
12.8 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any
representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as
it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, any Guarantor and any other Credit Party and made its own decision to
make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as
to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the 

  
 186 







Table of Contents


 
Borrower, any Guarantor and any other Credit Party. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower,
any Guarantor or any other Credit Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 

12.9 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such
(to the extent required to be reimbursed by the Borrower and not so reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the Total Credit Exposure in effect on
the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the
Total Credit Exposure in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any
time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or
any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no
Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct as determined in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 12.9 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

12.10 Citi in Its Individual Capacity. Citi and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits
from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, any Guarantor and any other Credit Party as though Citi were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, Citi
shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include
Citi in its individual capacity. 
 12.11 Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent and/or the
Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Letter of Credit Issuer, the other Agents and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent
and/or Collateral Agent becomes a Defaulting Lender, then such Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may be removed as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, at the reasonable request of the
Borrower and the Required Lenders. If the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent shall resign or be removed as Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then (a) the Required
Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor for the Lenders within 20 days, or (b) in the case of a resignation, the 

  
 187 







Table of Contents


 
Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, selected from among the Lenders.
In either case, the successor shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing), whereupon such successor shall succeed to the
rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent,” and/or “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor effective upon such appointment and approval, and the
former Administrative Agent’s and/or Collateral Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent
and/or Collateral Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any Lenders or other holders of the Loans. If no successor has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent by the date which is twenty (20) days
following the retiring Administrative Agent’s and/or Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, as the case may be, (x) the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders
shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor as provided for above and (y) the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless
thereupon become effective at such time as a successor Collateral Agent shall have been appointed, and such successor Collateral Agent shall have accepted such appointment, in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.11 and upon the
execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may
reasonably request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s and/or the Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal as
Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent under this Agreement and
the other Credit Documents. 
 Any resignation by Citi as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its
resignation or replacement as Letter of Credit Issuer and Swingline Lender. If Citi resigns as a Letter of Credit Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Letter of Credit Issuer hereunder with respect to all
Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation or replacement as Letter of Credit Issuer and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans
or fund risk participations in Unpaid Drawings pursuant to Sections 3.3 and 3.4. If Citi resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and
outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Credit Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.1(d)(ii). Upon the appointment
by the Borrower of a successor Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, (b) the retiring Letter of Credit Issuer and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, and (c) the successor Letter of Credit 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 Citi to effectively assume the obligations of Citi with respect to such Letters of Credit.

 12.12 Withholding Tax. To the extent the Administrative
Agent reasonably believes that it is required by any Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. Without limiting or expanding the obligations of the
Credit Parties under Section 5.4, if the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of
any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax
ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all
expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. The agreements in this Section 12.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable
hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to set off any amounts owing to it under Section 12.12 against any amounts otherwise payable to the applicable Lender. 

12.13 Duties as Collateral Agent and as Paying Agent. Without limiting the generality of
Section 12.1 above, the Collateral Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority (to the exclusion of the Lenders, each Hedge Bank and each Cash Management Bank), and is hereby authorized, to (i) act as the disbursing and
collecting agent for the Secured Parties with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Credit Documents (including in any proceeding described in Section 11.1(e) or any other bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
proceeding), and each Person making any payment in connection with any Credit Document to any Secured Party is hereby authorized to make such payment to the Collateral Agent, (ii) file and prove claims and file other documents necessary or
desirable to allow the claims of the Secured Parties with respect to any Obligation in any proceeding described in Section 11.1(e) or any other bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding (but not to vote, consent or otherwise act on behalf of
such Secured Party), (iii) act as collateral agent for each Secured Party for purposes of the perfection of all Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the
Collateral, (v) take such other action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the Liens created or purported to be created by the Credit Documents, (vi) except as may be otherwise specified in any Credit
Document, exercise all remedies given to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, whether under the Credit Documents, applicable requirements of law or otherwise and (vii) execute any amendment, consent
or waiver under the Security Documents on behalf of the Secured Parties, to the extent consented to in accordance with Section 13.1 and the terms thereof; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent hereby appoints, authorizes
and directs each Lender to act as collateral sub-agent for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all Liens with respect to the Collateral, including any deposit account maintained by a Credit Party
with, and cash and Permitted Investments held by such Secured Party and may further authorize and direct the Secured Parties to take further actions as collateral sub-agents for purposes of enforcing such Liens or otherwise to transfer the
Collateral subject thereto to the Collateral Agent, and each Secured Party hereby agrees to take such further actions to the extent, and only to the extent, so authorized and directed.

 12.14 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release or subordination of Liens or the Guarantees contemplated by Section 13.17 without further action or consent by the
Lenders. 
 12.15 Intercreditor Agreements. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to enter into
any Customary Intercreditor Agreement to the extent contemplated by the terms hereof, and the parties hereto acknowledge that such Customary Intercreditor Agreement is binding upon them. Each Lender (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by
and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Customary Intercreditor Agreement and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Customary Intercreditor Agreement and to subject the Liens on the
Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof. In addition, each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into (i) any amendments to any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) any other intercreditor
arrangements, in the case of clauses (i), and (ii) to the extent required to give effect to the establishment of intercreditor rights and privileges as contemplated and required by Section 10.2 of this Agreement. 

12.16 Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. By accepting the benefits of
the Guarantee and the Collateral, each Hedge Bank and Cash Management Bank shall be deemed to have appointed the Collateral Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Credit Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in
this Section 12.16. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Guarantee or any Security Document, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of any Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions
hereof or of any Guarantee or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document 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 Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12 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 Hedging Agreements unless the
Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, 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. 

SECTION 13. Miscellaneous. 

13.1 Amendments and Waivers. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither this Agreement
nor any other Credit Document (other than the Fee Letter), nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 13.1. The Required Lenders may, or, with the written
consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent shall, from time to time, (a) enter into with the relevant Credit Party or Credit Parties written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the
other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any

conditions as the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default
and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification shall directly: 
 (i)
reduce or forgive the principal of any Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness of principal) or extend any
scheduled amortization payments or the final scheduled maturity date of any Loan (other than as a result of waiving the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6 and 7 or other than as a result of a waiver or amendment of any Default, Event
of Default or mandatory prepayment of Term Loans (which shall not constitute an extension, forgiveness or postponement of any maturity date)), (provided that any Lender, upon the request of the Borrower, may extend the maturity date of any
Term Loans owing to it in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.15 without the consent of any other Lender, including the Required Lenders) or reduce the stated interest rate applicable to its Loans (it being understood that any
change (x) to the definition of “Consolidated Secured Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio” or (y) in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate and provided that only the consent of the
Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the “default rate” or amend Section 2.8(c) or to waive any requirement of Section 2.14(c), or reduce or forgive any portion, or extend
the date for the payment, of any interest or fee payable hereunder (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and other than as a result of a waiver or amendment of any Default, Event of
Default or mandatory prepayment of Term Loans (which shall not constitute an extension, forgiveness or postponement of any date for payment of principal, interest or fees)) or extend the final expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment
(provided that any Lender, upon the request of the Borrower, may extend the final expiration date of its Commitments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.15 without the consent of any other Lender, including the
Required Lenders) or extend the final expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the date specified in Section 3.1(a) or increase the aggregate amount of any Commitment (other than with respect to any Incremental Facility to which such
Lender has agreed) of any Lender (other than as a result of waiving the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 6 and 7 or other than as a result of a waiver or amendment of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment of Term Loans
(which shall not constitute an extension or increase of any commitment)) or decrease or forgive any Repayment Amount, or extend any scheduled Initial Term Loan Repayment Date or any date scheduled for the repayment of any installment of Incremental
Term Loans, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or 
 (ii) amend, modify or waive any

 provided, further, that (A) any waiver, amendment or modification of

agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of
Lenders hereunder at the time and (B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or
inconsistency (including, without limitation, amendments, supplements or waivers to any of the Security Documents, guarantees, intercreditor agreements or related documents executed by any Credit Party or any other Subsidiary in connection with this
Agreement if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order to cause such Security Documents, guarantees, intercreditor agreements or related documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents) so long as, in
each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice
from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; provided that the consent of the Lenders or the 

  
 192 







Table of Contents


 
Required Lenders, as the case may be, shall not be required to make any such changes necessary to be made in connection with any borrowing of Incremental Term Loans to effect the provisions of
Section 2.14, the provision of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase or otherwise to effect the provisions of Section 2.14, 2.15 or 10.2(a) and (C) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may, without the input or
consent of the other Lenders, (i) effect changes to Exhibit N as may be necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, (ii) effect changes to this Agreement that are necessary and appropriate to provide for the mechanics
contemplated by the offering process set forth in Section 13.6(g)(B) herein.

to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or any of their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Borrower hereby agrees that (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the
Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or any of its securities for purposes of United

Law, including United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public
information with respect to the Borrower or any of their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES
WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE
COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND

litigation or proceeding was brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates or creditors or any other third person), arising out of, or with respect to the Transactions or to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and
administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents or the use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit, including any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability
under, any Environmental Law or any actual or alleged presence of or Release of Hazardous Materials applicable to or otherwise relating to the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Real Property (all the foregoing in this

(unless increased costs would result therefrom), (y) any assignment made in connection with the primary syndication of the Commitments and Loans by the Joint Lead Arrangers or (z) if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment of a Term Loan unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent
within five Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided, further, that it shall be understood that, without limitation, the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any assignment if, in order for such

(B) the Administrative Agent and, in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Loans, the Swingline Lender and each Letter

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, any assignment of any Loans to a Purchasing Borrower Party shall
also be subject to the requirements of Section 13.6(g). 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

 (A) except in the case of (i) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (ii) an assignment of

or Term Loans, $1,000,000, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and
provided, further, that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by affiliated Lenders or related Approved Funds or by a single assignor to related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum
assignment amount requirements stated above;

execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;

 (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax
form required by Section 5.4 and an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material
non-public information about the Credit Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and Applicable Laws,
including Federal and state securities laws. 
 (E) 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 Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (E) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations
among separate tranches of Loans (if any) on a non-pro rata basis. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing
or anything to the contrary set forth herein (i) any assignment of any Loans or Commitments to a Purchasing Borrower Party shall also be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 13.6(g) and (ii) no natural person may be an
Eligible Assignee with respect to any Loans or Commitments. 
 For the purpose of this Section 13.6(b), the term “Approved
Fund” has the following meaning: 
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person)
that is primarily engaged or advises funds or other investment vehicles that are engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in commercial loans, bonds and similar extensions of credit or securities in the ordinary course of business and
that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 13.6(b)(vi), from and after the effective date specified in each
Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 and subject to the requirements of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.4 and 13.5); provided, that except to the extent
otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any other party hereto against such Defaulting Lender arising from such Lender’s having been a
Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.6 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 13.6(d).

 (iv) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder
and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (A) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby
free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Initial Term Loan Commitment, Incremental Term Loan Commitment and Revolving Credit Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof
which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance, (B) except as set forth in (A) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any
statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other instrument or
document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any
other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (C) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (D) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this
Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 8.9 or delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis
and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (E) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (F) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to
take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (G) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 

(v) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a
copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans (and interest thereon) and any payment made by the Letter
of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Further, the Register shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and the lending
office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders
shall 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. The Register, as in effect at the close of business on the
preceding Business Day, shall be available for inspection by (x) the Borrower, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Collateral Agent and (y) any Lender (solely with respect to its own outstanding Loans and Commitments), at any reasonable
time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 (vi) Upon its receipt of and, if required, consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire and any tax form required by Section 5.4 (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and any written consent to such
assignment required by Section 13.6(b)(i), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this
Agreement unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary, any Lender may assign to one or more wholly owned special purpose funding vehicles (each, an “SPV”) all or any portion of its funded Loans (without the corresponding Commitment), without the consent of any Person or the
payment of a fee, by execution of a written assignment agreement in a form agreed to by such assigning Lender and such SPV, and may grant any such SPV the option, in such SPV’s sole discretion, to provide the Borrower all or any part of any
Loans that such assigning Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement. Such SPVs shall have all the rights which a Lender making or holding such Loans would have under this Agreement, but no obligations. Any such assigning
Lender shall remain liable for all its original obligations under this Agreement, including its Commitment (although the unused portion thereof shall be reduced by the principal amount of any Loans held by an SPV). Notwithstanding such assignment,
the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may deliver notices to such assigning Lender (as agent for the SPV) and not separately to the SPV unless the Administrative Agent and the Borrower are requested in writing by the SPV to deliver such notices
separately to it. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) neither the grant to the SPV nor the exercise by any SPV of such option will increase the costs or expenses or otherwise change the obligations of the Borrower under this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents, except, in the case of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4, where (A) the increase or change results from a change in any Applicable Law after the SPV becomes an SPV and the assigning Lender notifies the
Borrower in writing of such increase or change no later than ninety (90) days after such change in Applicable Law becomes effective or (B) the grant was made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, (ii) the assigning Lender
shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Credit Document and the receipt of any notices provided by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (as agent for the SPV) remain
the Lender of record hereunder and (iii) no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the assigning Lender). The Borrower shall, at the request of any
such assigning Lender, execute and deliver to such Person as such assigning Lender may designate, a Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 or G-2, in the amount of such assigning Lender’s original Note to evidence the Loans of such
assigning Lender and related SPV. 
 (d) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative

Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the other Lenders 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 or any other Credit Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver
described in the first proviso to Section 13.1 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits (and subject to the requirements, it being
understood that any requirement for a Participant to deliver any forms under Section 5.4 will be satisfied if such forms are delivered to the participating Lender rather than the Borrower or Administrative Agent) of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.4 and
13.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.6(b). To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.8(b)
as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.8(a) as though it were a Lender. 

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4 than the applicable Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless (A) the entitlement to a greater payment resulted from a change in any Applicable Law after the Participant became a Participant and the
participating Lender notifies the Borrower in writing of such entitlement to a greater payment no later than ninety (90) days after such change in Applicable Law becomes effective or (B) the sale of the participation to such Participant is
made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. Each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose, shall establish and maintain at its address a record of
ownership, in which such Lender shall register by book entry (A) the name and address of each such participant (and each change thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise) and (B) the rights, interest or obligation of each such
participant in any Obligation, in any Commitment and in any right to receive any interest or principal payment hereunder (such register, a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose
all or any portion of its Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Obligation or Commitment) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary to establish that such Obligation or Commitment is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the
parties shall treat the Person listed in the Participant Register as the Participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a
security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central banking authority, and this
Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In order to facilitate such pledge or assignment, the Borrower hereby agrees that, upon

request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made its initial Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense,
a Note evidencing the Loans owing to such Lender. 
 (f) Subject to Section 13.16, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to
any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that
has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s
credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything else to
the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party in accordance with Section 13.6(b) (which assignment will not, except for purposes of making the calculations
set forth in Section 5.2(a)(ii), constitute a prepayment of Loans for any purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents); provided that: 

(A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom; 

(B) such Purchasing Borrower Party shall offer to all Lenders within any Class of Term Loans (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, to every
Class) to buy the Term Loans within such Class on a pro rata basis based on the then outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans of such Class, pursuant to procedures to be reasonably agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; 

(C) the assigning Lender and Purchasing Borrower Party purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit I or such other form as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in lieu of an Assignment and Acceptance; 

(D) for the avoidance of doubt, Lenders shall not be permitted to assign Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended Revolving Credit Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party; 
 (E) any Term Loans assigned to any
Purchasing Borrower Party shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder (it being understood that any gains or losses by any
Purchasing Borrower Party upon purchase or acquisition and cancellation of such Term Loans shall not be taken into account in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow, Consolidated Net Income and Consolidated EBITDA); 

(F) no Purchasing Borrower Party may use the proceeds from Revolving Credit Loans or Swingline Loans (or any other revolving credit facility
that is effective in reliance on Section 10.1(a) or Section 10.1(w)) to purchase any Term Loans; 

  
 204 







Table of Contents


 (G) any purchases or assignments of Loans by a Purchasing Borrower Party made through
“dutch auctions” shall (i) be conducted pursuant to procedures to be established by the Administrative Agent that are consistent with this Section 13.6(g) and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and
(ii) require that such Person clearly identify itself as a Purchasing Borrower Party, as the case may be, in any assignment and acceptance agreement executed in connection with such purchases or assignments; 

(H) the Purchasing Borrower Party shall make a representation to the Administrative Agent and the assigning Lender that it is not in
possession of any information regarding the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their respective Affiliates, or their assets, the Borrower’s ability to perform its Obligations or any other matter that may be material to a decision by any Lender to
assign its Loans that has not previously been disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the non-Public Lenders; and 
 (I) the Borrower
shall be in compliance, on a Pro Forma Basis, with the Financial Performance Covenants (for the avoidance of doubt, without regard to whether Commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility have been terminated and/or Obligations thereunder are
outstanding) as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter for which financial statements are required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(b). 

(h) Upon any contribution of Term Loans to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary and upon any purchase of Term Loans by a Purchasing
Borrower Party, (A) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of such Term Loans shall automatically be cancelled and retired or extinguished by the Borrower on the date of such contribution or purchase (and, if
requested by the Administrative Agent, with respect to a contribution of Term Loans, any applicable contributing Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, or such other form as may be reasonably
requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in such Loans to the Borrower for immediate cancellation) and (B) the Administrative Agent shall record such cancellation or
retirement in the Register. 
 13.7 Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances. 

(a) The Borrower, at its sole expense, shall be permitted to replace any Lender (or any Participant) that (i) requests reimbursement for
amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4 that is materially more than the amounts, if any, requested by the other Lenders, (ii) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result thereof any of
the actions described in such Section is required to be taken or (iii) becomes a Defaulting Lender, with a replacement bank, financial institution or other investor that is an Eligible Assignee; provided that (A) such replacement
does not conflict with any Applicable Law, (B) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (C) the Borrower shall repay (or such replacement bank, financial institution or other institutional
lender or investor shall purchase, at par) all Loans and pay all other amounts (other than any disputed amounts) owing to such replaced Lender hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.11, 3.5 or 5.4, as the
case may be) and under the other Credit Documents prior to the date of replacement of such Lender, (D) such replacement bank, financial institution or other institutional lender or investor (if not already a Lender) and the terms and


  
 205 







Table of Contents


 
conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (E) the replaced Lender shall be replaced in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.6
and (F) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender or that the replaced Lender shall have against the Borrower and
the other parties for indemnity, contribution, payment of disputed and other unpaid amounts and otherwise. 
 (b) If any Lender (such Lender
a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, which pursuant to the terms of Section 13.1 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to
which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent), at its own cost and expense, to
replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans and Commitments to one or more Eligible Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) all Obligations of the
Borrower under this Agreement owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full (including any applicable premium under Section 5.1(b)) to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, (ii) the
replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, (iii) the replacement Lender shall consent to the proposed
amendment, waiver, discharge or termination and (iv) all Lenders required to have consented to such proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination (other than Non-Consenting Lenders which are simultaneously replaced) shall have consented
thereto. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 13.6(a). 

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party hereto agrees that any assignment pursuant to the terms of this
Section 13.7 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender making such assignment need not be a party thereto. 

13.8 Adjustments; Set-off. 

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or
part of the Loans of any Class and/or the participations in letter of credit obligations or swingline loans held by it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings
of the nature referred to in Section 11.1(e), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans of such Class or participations in
letter of credit obligations or swingline loans, as applicable, such Benefited Lender shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (ii) purchase for cash at face value from the other Lenders a participating interest in such
portion of each such other Lender’s Loans of such Class or participations in letter of credit obligations or swingline loans, as applicable, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof,
as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal of their respective Loans of the applicable Class or participations in
letter of 

  
 206 







Table of Contents


 
credit obligations or swingline loans, as applicable; provided that, (A) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender,
such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the
Borrower or any other Credit Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in
any of its Loans, Commitments or participations in a Letter of Credit Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant or (z) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of
the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Margin (or other pricing term, including any fee, discount or premium) in respect of Loans or Commitments of Lenders that
have consented to any such extension to the extent such transaction is permitted hereunder. Each Credit 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 Credit Party rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of
such participation. 
 (b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of
the Lenders provided by law, each Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by Applicable
Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to setoff and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or
agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower, as the case may be; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over
immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations
owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. Each Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and
application made by such Person; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 13.8(b) to the contrary, no Lender nor the Swingline
Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer will exercise, or attempt to exercise, any right of set-off, banker’s lien or the like against any deposit account or property of the Borrower or any other credit
party held or maintained by such Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as applicable, in each case to the extent the deposits or other proceeds of such exercise, or attempt to exercise, any right of set-off, banker’s lien or the like are, or are intended to be or are otherwise are held out to be applied to the Obligations hereunder or otherwise secured by the Collateral, without the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.

 13.17 Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations; Subordination of Liens. 

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Credit Parties on any Collateral shall be
automatically released (i) in full, as set forth in clause (b) below, (ii) upon the sale, transfer or other Disposition of such Collateral (including as part of or in connection with any other sale, transfer or other disposition
permitted hereunder) to any Person other than another Credit Party, to the extent such sale, transfer or other disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to
that effect provided to it by any Credit Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Credit Party by a Person that is not a Credit Party, upon termination
or expiration of such lease, (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 13.1),
(v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee (in accordance with the second succeeding sentence and Section 25 of the
Guarantee), (vi) as required by the Collateral Agent to effect any sale, transfer or other disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and (vii) to the

than those being released) of the Credit Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Credit Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise
released in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Documents. Additionally, the Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that any 

  
 210 







Table of Contents


 
Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its obligations under the Guarantee upon consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder resulting in such Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to
constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements
necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender. Any representation, warranty or covenant
contained in any Credit Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be repeated. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Credit Document, when all Obligations (other than (i) Hedging Obligations in respect of any Secured Hedging Agreements, (ii) Cash Management Obligations in respect of
any Secured Cash Management Agreements and (iii) any contingent obligations or contingent indemnification obligations not then due) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding
that is not Cash Collateralized or back-stopped, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be
required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all obligations under any Credit Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be any (i) Hedging Obligations in respect of any Secured Hedging
Agreements, (ii) Cash Management Obligations in respect of any Secured Cash Management Agreements and (iii) any contingent obligations or contingent indemnification obligations not then due. Any such release of Obligations shall be deemed
subject to the provision that such Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency,
bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any
substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any Liens permitted by the Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may (but, for the avoidance of
doubt, shall not be required to) (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to subordinate the Lien on any Collateral to any Lien permitted under Sections 10.2(c), (e) (solely as it
relates to clauses (c), (f) and (q) of Section 10.2), (f), (k), (l), (m), (o), (p), (q), (r), (s), (t), (w), (x) and clauses (b), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (i) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the Credit Documents to the contrary, at the direction of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent may, in exercising remedies, take any and all necessary and appropriate action to effectuate a credit bid of all Loans (or any lesser amount thereof) for the Borrower’s assets in a bankruptcy, foreclosure or other similar
proceeding, forbear from exercising remedies upon an Event of Default, or in a bankruptcy proceeding, enter into a settlement agreement on behalf of all Lenders.

 13.18 USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender hereby notifies the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT ACT, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will
allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT ACT. 
 13.19 Judgment
Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance
with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of a Borrower in respect of any such sum due from
it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance
with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment
Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the
Administrative Agent from such Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against
such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other
Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law). 
 13.20 Payments Set Aside. To the
extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent 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 such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding 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 severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any 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 applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect.
