AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS 

2.1 Term Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (the
“Initial Term Loan”) to the Borrowers on the Closing Date in an amount equal to such Lender’s Term Commitment as of the Closing Date. The Initial Term Loan may from time to time consist of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans,
as determined by the Borrowers and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.12. 

2.2 Procedure for Initial Term Loan Borrowing. The Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent
irrevocable written notice in the form of a Notice of Borrowing in substantially the form of Exhibit D (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, (a) three Business Days (or in the case
of the initial Borrowing hereunder, such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent shall agree) prior to the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) one Business Day (or or in the case of the initial Borrowing
hereunder, such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent shall agree) prior to the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of ABR Loans), requesting that the Term Lenders make the Initial Term Loan on the Closing Date and specifying the
amount to be borrowed. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Lender thereof. Not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Closing Date, each Term Lender shall make available to the
Administrative Agent in the Agent’s Account an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Initial Term Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall disburse, on behalf of the Borrowers in accordance with the
instructions set forth in the initial Notice of Borrowing, the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders in immediately available funds. 

  
 28 








 2.3 Repayment of Term Loans. Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay,
on the Maturity Date, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans on such Maturity Date. 

2.4 [Reserved]. 

2.5 [Reserved]. 

2.6 [Reserved]. 

2.7 [Reserved]. 

2.8 Certain Fees The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates as set forth in
the Agent Fee Letter and any other fee agreements with the Administrative Agent and to perform any other obligations contained therein. 

2.9 [Reserved]. 

2.10 Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty, upon irrevocable written notice in substantially the form of Exhibit G-1 hereto delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar
Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans;
provided, that if any applicable Borrower makes a voluntary prepayment of any Loans pursuant to this Section on or prior to the two year anniversary of the Closing Date, the applicable Borrower(s) shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the ratable account of the applicable Term Lenders, a prepayment premium in an amount equal to (x) on or prior to the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, 2.00% of the principal amount of Term Loans prepaid or repaid and (y) after the
one year anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the two year anniversary of the Closing Date, 1.00% of the principal amount of Term Loans prepaid or repaid; provided, further, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day
other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.20(c). Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each
relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of the Term
Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Prepayments of the Term Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be applied in accordance with
Section 2.17(b). 
 2.11 Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a) Subject to the prior application of such amounts as required under the First Lien Credit Agreement, if on any date any Group Member shall
receive Net Cash Proceeds from any 

  
 29 








 
Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, the Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent a notice of mandatory prepayment in
substantially the form of Exhibit G-2 hereto (which notice shall specify the date and amount of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Group Member, the amount, if any, which is subject to prior application under the First Lien Credit Agreement, and
the amount which is to be applied to the Loans hereunder) and such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on the date such notice is delivered toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(b); provided, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year and
(ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in
Section 2.11(b). 
 (b) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to
Section 2.11(a) shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(b). The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be made, first, to ABR
Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.11 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. 

2.12 Conversion and Continuation Options. 

(a) The Borrowers may elect from time to time to Convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent a
Conversion/Continuation Notice (which notice, when given, shall be irrevocable) no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed Conversion date, provided that any such Conversion of Eurodollar Loans
may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrowers may elect from time to time to Convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (which notice, when
given, shall be irrevocable) no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed Conversion date (which notice shall specify, among other things, the length of the initial Interest Period therefor),
provided that no ABR Loan may be Converted into a Eurodollar Loan when: (i) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such Conversions. Upon receipt of any Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, any such conversions or continuations shall be in
aggregate principal amounts of (i) in the case of ABR Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. 

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then-current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrowers
giving a Conversion/Continuation Notice (which notice, when given, shall be irrevocable) no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed continuation date (which shall be the last day of the
then-current Interest Period), which notice shall specify, among other things, the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that no Eurodollar 

  
 30 








 
Loan may be continued as such when (i) any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their
sole discretion not to permit such continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrowers shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the
preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically Converted to ABR Loans on the last day of the then-expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of a Conversion/Continuation Notice pursuant to this provision 2.12(b), the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
 2.13 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the
aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be in conformity with Section 2.12 and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 

2.14 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. 

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the
Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan shall not be paid when due (whether
at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, and
(ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans plus 2% from the date of such nonpayment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment). 

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph
(c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
 2.15 Computation of Interest and Fees. 

(a) Interest payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect
to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent
shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become
effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable, notify the Borrowers and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change
in interest rate. 

  
 31 








 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision
of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the written request of the Borrowers, deliver to the Borrowers a statement showing the quotations
used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.15(a). 
 2.16 Inability to
Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined
(which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period; or

 (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be
determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period; 

(c) then the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy, telephonic or electronic mail notice thereof to the Borrowers and the relevant Lenders
as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day
of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be Converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by
the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrowers have the right to Convert any ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans. 

2.17 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. 

(a) Each borrowing by the Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made on a pro rata
basis according to the respective Term Percentages of the relevant Lenders. 
 (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrowers
on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders. Amounts paid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not
be reborrowed. 
 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise,
shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof 

  
 32 








 
to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to the Agent’s Account, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent after
1:00 P.M., New York City time on a Business Day may be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to each relevant Lender promptly upon receipt in full, in like funds as received, net
of any amounts owing by such Lender pursuant to Section 10.5. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to
extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon
shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in
writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount
available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may (but shall have no obligation to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the
Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate
and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of
the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative
Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, on demand, from the Borrowers.

 (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrowers prior to the date of any payment due to be made
by the Borrowers hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers are making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers within three Business Days after such due date, the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average
Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrowers. 

  
 33 








 2.18 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses
(b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan
requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate); or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting
this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender
or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or otherwise), then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other
Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in
Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the
Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the
policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s
holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or other Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender, its holding company or other Recipient, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or other Recipient the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender’s or other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or other Recipient pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or such other Recipient notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or 

  
 34 








 
reductions and of such Lender’s or other Recipient’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

2.19 Taxes. 
 (a)
Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers and any Loan Party under
any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or
withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.19) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 (d)
Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or
asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties
to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in
each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable 

  
 35 








 
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount
of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such
Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority
pursuant to this Section 2.19, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting
such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (g) Status of Lenders.
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by
the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of
withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as
will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the
completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.19(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) 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. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrowers are each a U.S. Person, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on
which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S.
federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to
the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the
reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

  
 36 








 (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty
to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (and/or as applicable, W-8BEN-E) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal
withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN (and/or as applicable, W-8BEN-E) establishing an exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent
shareholder” of either Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (and/or as applicable, W-8BEN-E); or 
 (4) to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN (and/or as applicable, W-8BEN-E), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of
Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents (including, without limitation, a valid withholding statement) from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign
Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit
H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to
time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly
completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

  
 37 








 (D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to
U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall
deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as
prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their
obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D),
“FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification
it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.19 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19), it shall pay to the indemnifying
party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such
indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the
amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental
Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the
indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the
indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes
that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (i) Survival. Each party’s
obligations under this Section 2.19 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
obligations under any Loan Document. 

  
 38 








 2.20 Indemnity. The Borrowers agree to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each
Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing of, Conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrowers have given a
notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrowers have given a notice thereof in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.21 or 2.22. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of
interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in
the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable
Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in
the interbank Eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 2.21
Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or requires the Borrowers to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental
Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrowers) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder
or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to
Section 2.18 or 2.19, as the case may be, in the future, and (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby
agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 2.22
Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the
account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.21, or if any Lender is a Defaulting
Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the
restrictions contained in Section 10.6), all its 

  
 39 








 
interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments made pursuant to Sections 2.18 and 2.19) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan
Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (a) such assignee shall meet the requirements to be an assignee under
Section 10.6(b)(ii) (subject to such consents, if any, as may be required under Section 10.6(b)(i)), (b) the Borrowers shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 10.6(b)(ii)(B), (c) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and the
other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.20) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), including, from the
Borrowers, the fees set forth in Section 2.10 on the aggregate principal amount of Loans such Lender is required to assign as if such Loans had been voluntarily prepaid pursuant to such Section 2.10 on the date
of assignment, (d) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.18 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, (e) such assignment shall not conflict with applicable law, and (f) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee
shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  
 2.23 [Reserved]. 

2.24 Joint and Several Liability. 

(a) All Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several Obligations of each Borrower.
Anything contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Obligations of each Borrower hereunder, solely to the extent that such Borrower did not receive the benefit of the proceeds of Loans from any
borrowing hereunder, shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its Obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under §548 of the Bankruptcy Code, or
any applicable provisions of comparable state law (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Borrower, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under
the Fraudulent Transfer Laws (specifically excluding, however, any liabilities of such Borrower in respect of intercompany Indebtedness to any other Loan Party or Affiliates of any other Loan Party to the extent that such Indebtedness would be
discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Loan Party hereunder) and after giving effect as assets to the value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation or
contribution of such Borrower pursuant to (i) applicable law or (ii) any agreement providing for an equitable allocation among such Borrower and other Affiliates of any Loan Party of Obligations arising under the Guaranty Agreement
executed by such parties. 

  
 40 








 (b) Until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash and all Commitments under the Loan
Documents have been terminated, each Borrower shall withhold exercise of any right of subrogation, contribution or any other right to enforce any remedy which it now has or may hereafter have against the other Borrower or any other Guarantor. Each
Borrower further agrees that, to the extent the waiver of its rights of subrogation, contribution and remedies as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights such Borrower may
have against the other Borrower, any collateral or security or any such other Guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights the Administrative Agent may have against the other Borrower, any such collateral or security, and any such other
Guarantor. 
 (c) Co-Borrower hereby appoints Lead Borrower as its agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for the purpose of
(i) making any borrowing requests or other requests required under this Agreement, (ii) the giving and receipt of notices by and to Borrowers under this Agreement, (iii) the delivery of all documents, reports, financial statements and
written materials required to be delivered by Borrowers under this Agreement, and (iv) all other purposes incidental to any of the foregoing. Co-Borrower agrees that any action taken by Lead Borrower as
the agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of Co-Borrower shall be binding upon Co-Borrower to the same extent as if directly taken by
Co-Borrower. 
 (d) All Loans shall be made to Lead Borrower as borrower unless a different
allocation of the Loans as between Lead Borrower and Co-Borrower with respect to any borrowing hereunder is included in the applicable funding notice. 

2.25 [Reserved]. 

2.26 Defaulting Lenders. 

Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and the last sentence of Section 10.1. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no
longer 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, that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender;
provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that
Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 ARTICLE 3: 

[RESERVED]  

ARTICLE 4: 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans, the Borrowers hereby jointly and
severally represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that: 
 4.1 Financial Condition. The audited
consolidated balance sheets of the Group Members as at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for each of the two Fiscal Years ended on December 31, 2013 and
December 31, 2012, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from a Nationally Recognized Accounting Firm and included in the Lead Borrower’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Years ended December 31, 2013 and
December 31, 2012, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Group Members at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective Fiscal Years then ended. All such
financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed
therein). No Group Member has any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange
transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph. 

4.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2013, there has been no development or event with respect to the Borrowers or their
Subsidiaries that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. During the period from December 31, 2013 to and including the Closing Date there has been no Disposition by any Group Member of any material part of
its business or property. 
 4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which
it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires
such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law and all indentures, agreements and other instruments, except in the case of each of clauses (c) and (d), to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not,
in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable
Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. 

  
 42 








 
Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers,
to authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the
extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4,
which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each
other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings
hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties
or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation, other than Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent as contemplated in this Agreement. No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.6 Adverse Proceedings. There are
no Adverse Proceedings (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Neither the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries (a) is in violation of any applicable laws (including Environmental Laws and Health Care Laws) that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect, or (b) is subject to or in default with respect to any final judgments, writs, injunctions, decrees, rules or regulations of any court or any federal, state, municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency
or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.7 No Default. No Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that
could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 4.8
Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and none of such property is
subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3. 

  
 43 








 4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member and its Subsidiaries own, or possess
the right to use, all Intellectual Property that the Loan Parties consider reasonably necessary for the conduct of their respective businesses as currently conducted without any infringement upon the rights of any other Person that could have a
Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of Borrowers, the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No claim
or litigation regarding any of the foregoing is pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened, which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.10 Taxes. Except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.13, all federal tax returns, and all other tax
returns and reports of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries required to be filed by any of them (excluding such other tax returns and reports with respect to which the failure to pay or file could not result in the loss, suspension, or impairment of
any material Governmental Authorization, and otherwise could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) have been timely filed (including extensions), and all taxes shown on such tax returns to be due and payable and all
assessments, fees and other governmental charges upon the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and upon their respective properties, assets, income, businesses and franchises which are due and payable have been paid when due and payable. The Borrowers
know of no proposed tax assessment against the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries that is not being actively contested by the Borrowers or such Subsidiary in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in
conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Borrowers and/or their Subsidiaries, as the case may be; and as of the Closing Date no tax Lien has been filed, and to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no claim is being asserted, with
respect to any such tax, fee or other charge. 
 4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans, and no other
extensions of credit hereunder, will be used, directly or indirectly, (a) for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and
from time to time hereafter in effect for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulation U or (b) for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulation U. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will
furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U 1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. 

4.12 Labor Matters. Except as, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:
(a) there are no strikes or other labor disputes against any Group Member pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened; (b) hours worked by and payment made to employees of each Group Member have not been in violation of the
Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters; and (c) all payments due from any Group Member on account of employee health and welfare insurance have been paid or accrued as a liability on the
books of the relevant Group Member. 
 4.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding
deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan
has complied in all material respects with the applicable 

  
 44 








 
provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of
all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the
assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. Neither the Borrowers nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be
expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the Borrowers nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrowers or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw
completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent. 

4.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X of the Board) that limits
its ability to incur Indebtedness. 
 4.15 Subsidiaries. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.15, as of the Closing
Date, there are no existing subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments or other agreements to which the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries are a party requiring, and there is no membership interest or other Capital Stock of any
of the Subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower outstanding which upon conversion or exchange would require, the issuance by any of the Subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower of any additional membership interests or other Capital Stock of any of the
Subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower or other Securities convertible into, exchangeable for or evidencing the right to subscribe for or purchase, a membership interest or other Capital Stock of any of the Subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower.
Schedule 4.15 correctly sets forth the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary, as to each such Subsidiary, the ownership interest of the Lead Borrower and its Subsidiaries in its respective Subsidiaries as of
the Closing Date. Each Subsidiary of the Lead Borrower that is a Guarantor as of the Closing Date is identified in Schedule 4.15. 

4.16 Reserved. 

4.17 Environmental Matters. There are no Adverse Proceedings regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental
Laws that, individually or in the aggregate would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries nor any of their respective facilities or operations are subject to any outstanding written
order, consent decree or settlement agreement with any Person relating to any Environmental Law, any Environmental Claim, or any Hazardous Materials Activity that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. There are and, to each of the Borrowers’ and their Subsidiaries’ knowledge, have been, no conditions, occurrences, or Hazardous Materials Activities which would reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental
Claim against the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a 

  
 45 








 
Material Adverse Effect. Neither Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries nor, to any Loan Party’s knowledge, any predecessor of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries has filed any notice under
any Environmental Law indicating past or present treatment of Hazardous Materials at any facility in violation of any Environmental Law where such violation is reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Borrowers’ or any
of their Subsidiaries’ operations involves the generation, transportation, treatment, storage or disposal of hazardous waste, as defined under 40 C.F.R. Parts 260-270 or any state equivalent, except in the ordinary course of its business in
compliance with all Environmental Laws. Compliance with all current or reasonably foreseeable future requirements pursuant to or under Environmental Laws would not be reasonably expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse
Effect. No event or condition has occurred or is occurring with respect to the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries relating to any Environmental Law, any Release of Hazardous Materials, or any Hazardous Materials Activity which individually or in the
aggregate has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 4.18 Accuracy of Information, Etc.
No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document, the Confidential Information Memorandum, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the
Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the Closing Date), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The Projections and pro forma
financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Lead Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such
financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.
Borrowers have no knowledge of any matter or occurrence that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the Confidential Information Memorandum, in the other Loan Documents, or in
any other documents, certificates and statements furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. 

4.19 Solvency. Each Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the Loan Documents and to the incurrence of all Obligations being
incurred in connection herewith on the Closing Date and on any date on which this representation and warranty is made, will be, Solvent. 

4.20 Employee Benefit Plans. The Borrowers, each of their Subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in
compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee
Benefit Plan, except where such non-compliance or non-performance would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a
favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit 

  
 46 








 
Plan is so qualified and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status that would
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), the Internal Revenue Service, any Employee Benefit Plan or any trust established under Title IV of ERISA has been or is
expected to be incurred by Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates except to the extent reflected on the consolidated financial statements of the Lead Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the notes thereto. No ERISA Event
has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except to the extent required under Section 4980B of the Code or similar state laws, no Employee Benefit Plan provides
health or welfare benefits (through the purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates. The present value of the aggregate benefit
liabilities under each Pension Plan sponsored, maintained or contributed to by the Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the end of the most recent plan year on the basis of the actuarial assumptions
specified for funding purposes in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan), did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Pension Plan. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which
the actuarial report is available, the potential liability of the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and their respective ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when
aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of ERISA is zero. The Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and each of their ERISA Affiliates
have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

 4.21 Compliance with Health Care Laws. 

(a) The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, when taken as a whole, are in compliance in all material respects with all material Health Care Laws
applicable to it, its products and its properties or other assets or its business or operation. Each of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has in effect all material Governmental Authorizations necessary for it to carry on its
business and operations, as presently conducted. All such Governmental Authorizations are in full force and effect and there exists no default under, or violation of, any such Governmental Authorization and neither Borrower nor any of their
Subsidiaries has received notice or has knowledge that any Governmental Authority is considering limiting, suspending, terminating, adversely amending or revoking any such Governmental Authorization, in each case, except where the failure to be in
full force and effect, and/or default, or violation or such notice would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.21, all reports, documents, claims, notices or approvals required to be filed, obtained,
maintained or furnished by the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries pursuant to any Health Care Law to any Governmental Authority have been so filed, obtained, maintained or furnished except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, and all such reports, documents, claims and notices were complete and correct in all material respects on the date filed (or were or will be corrected in or supplemented by a subsequent filing). 

  
 47 








 (c) Each of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, to the extent that it is billing the related
payor, has the requisite provider number or other Governmental Authorization to bill under Medicare, the respective Medicaid program in the state or states in which such entity operates, or Private Third Party Payor Programs (as defined below).
There is no investigation, audit, claim review, or other action pending, or threatened to the knowledge of the Borrowers, which would result in a revocation, suspension, termination, probation, restriction, limitation, or non-renewal of any
Governmental Third Party Payor or Private Third Party Payor (as defined below) provider number or result in any of the Borrowers’ or any of their Subsidiaries’ exclusion from any Governmental Third Party Payor Program or Private Third
Party Payor Program which individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Governmental Third Party Payor” means Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE,
state government insurers and any other person or entity which presently or in the future maintains Governmental Third Party Payor Programs. In addition, for purposes of this Agreement, “Governmental Third Party Payor
Programs” means all governmental third party payor programs in which the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries participates (including, without limitation, Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE or any other federal or state health care
programs). For purposes of this Agreement, a “Private Third Party Payor” means private insurers and any other person or entity which presently or in the future maintains Private Third Party Payor Programs. In addition, for
purposes of this Agreement, “Private Third Party Payor Programs” means all non-governmental third party payor programs in which the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries participate (including, without limitation, managed
care plans, or any other private insurance programs). 
 (d) Each of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries (i) has received and
maintains accreditation to the extent required by law in good standing and without limitation or impairment by all applicable accrediting organizations, including without limitation, the Accreditation Commission for Health Care, Inc. or other
applicable nationally recognized accrediting agency, and (ii) if applicable, has cured all deficiencies or submitted or will submit a plan of correction to cure all deficiencies noted in its most recent accreditation survey reports, except in
the case of clause (i) and (ii) where the failure to require, maintain, cure or submit would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(e) There are no facts, circumstances or conditions that, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, would reasonably be expected to form the basis
for any valid investigation, suit, claim, audit, action (legal or regulatory) or proceeding (legal or regulatory) by a Governmental Authority relating to any of the Health Care Laws against or affecting the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries that
would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.21, neither Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries (i) is a party to a corporate integrity agreement, or (ii) has any reporting obligations
pursuant to a settlement agreement, plan of correction, or other remedial measure entered into with any Governmental Authority. Each of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, has complied with the terms and conditions of any corporate
integrity agreements, settlement agreements, plans of correction, or other remedial measures or demand of any Governmental Authority to which it is subject except where non-compliance would not be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 48 








 (f) Neither Borrower nor any of their Subsidiaries or their respective officers, directors,
employees or agents is, has been, or has been threatened to be, (i) excluded from any Governmental Third Party Payor Program pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b and related regulations, or (ii) made a party to any other action by
any Governmental Authority that may prohibit it from selling products to any governmental or other purchaser pursuant to any federal, state or local laws or regulations, except where the same would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (g) To the extent applicable to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, and for so long as (i) the Borrowers or
any of their Subsidiaries are a “covered entity” as defined in 45 C.F.R. § 160.103, (ii) the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries are a “business associate” as defined in 45 C.F.R. § 160.103, (iii) the
Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries are subject to or covered by the HIPAA Administrative Requirements codified at 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 & 162 (the “Transactions Rule”) and/or the HIPAA Security and Privacy
Requirements codified at 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 & 164 (the “Privacy and Security Rules”), and/or (iv) the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries sponsor any “group health plans” as defined in 45

Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder, each of the Borrowers shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: 

7.1 Financial Condition Covenants. 

(a) Total Leverage Ratio; First Lien Leverage Ratio.  

(i) The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries will not permit the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any Fiscal Quarter to
be greater than (A) 4.3125 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2014 and for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2014, (B) 4.025 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending December 31, 2014 and for the Fiscal Quarter
ending March 31, 2015, (C) 3.7375 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2015 and for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2015 and (D) 3.45 to 1.0 for each Fiscal Quarter ending thereafter. 

(ii) The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries will not permit the First Lien Leverage Ratio as of the last day of any Fiscal
Quarter to be greater than (A) 2.875 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2014 and for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2014, (B) 2.5875 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending December 31, 2014 and for the

 60 








 (iii) With respect to any rolling four quarter period during which a Material
Asset Sale, a Material Acquisition or, in the Lead Borrower’s discretion, any other Permitted Acquisition has occurred (each, a “Subject Transaction”), for purposes of determining compliance with the Total Leverage Ratio
and the First Lien Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be calculated on a pro forma basis (without duplication) giving effect to such Subject Transaction as if it had been consummated or incurred or repaid at the beginning of the
relevant four quarter period. The determination of such pro forma Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA shall be further modified pursuant to Section 7.1(c)(i). 

(b) Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Borrowers and their Subsidiaries will not permit the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio as of the
last day of any Fiscal Quarter to be less than (i) 0.96 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2014 and for the Fiscal Quarter ending September 30, 2014, (ii) 1.0 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending December 31,
2014, (iii) 1.04 to 1.0 for the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2015 and for the Fiscal Quarter ending June 30, 2015 and (iv) 1.09 to 1.0 for each Fiscal Quarter ending thereafter. 

(c) (i) For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants set forth in this Section 7.1, in the
determination of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, the following items shall be added back to Consolidated Net Income for such four quarter period, to the extent deducted from revenues in the determination thereof and to the extent such items arise out
of events which are directly attributable to a Subject Transaction, are factually supportable and are expected to have an immediate and a continuing impact: severance costs, retention costs, consultant expenses, closure of facilities, Legacy Costs
and other similar restructuring and non-recurring charges incurred in connection with the Subject Transaction (such other restructuring and non-recurring charges not specifically listed in the preceding phrase to be subject to the approval of the
Administrative Agent); provided, however, that Legacy Costs shall not exceed $5,000,000 during the term of the Loans. 

(ii) With respect to any rolling four quarter period during which a Subject Transaction has occurred, for purposes of
calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDAR for such four quarter period shall be calculated, to the extent comprised of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, by computing Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for such four quarter
period in the manner set forth in Section 7.1(c)(i). 
 (iii) The failure of the Lead Borrower to include
a Permitted Acquisition in the pro forma calculations permitted to this Section 7.1 for any four quarter period shall not preclude the Lead Borrower from including such Permitted Acquisition in the calculation for any other four
quarter period including the quarter in which such Permitted Acquisition occurred. 
 (iv) The pro forma adjustments
calculated pursuant to Section 7.1 shall be set forth and certified by a Responsible Officer.

ARTICLE 9: 
 THE AGENT

 9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of
such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan 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 Loan
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 Loan 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 Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. 

  
 72 








 9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement and the other Loan 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. 
 9.3 Exculpatory
Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) 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 Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and non- appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such
Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this
Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The 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 Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any
Loan Party. 
 9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully
protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or email message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and 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 Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
deem and treat the payee of any Note 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 in accordance with Section 10.6. The
Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this
Agreement, all 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 refusing 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 Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
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. 

  
 73 








 9.5 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 unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender, or the Borrowers 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 notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect
to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all 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. 

9.6 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its respective
officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a
Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon 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 Loan Parties and their Affiliates 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 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 Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. 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, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness
of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates. 

9.7 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in
any kind of business with any Loan Party as though Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, if any, Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include Agent in its individual capacity. 

9.8 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty days’ notice to
the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other 

  
 74 








 
Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under
Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(f) with respect to the Borrowers shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed),
whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and
the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any
holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is thirty days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After
any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 and of Section 10.5 shall continue to inure to its benefit. 

9.9 Agreement Regarding Collateral. Agent and each Lender each hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of
perfecting Liens (for the benefit of Agent and each of the Lenders) in any Collateral that, in accordance with applicable law, can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify
Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with Agent’s instructions. 

ARTICLE 10: 

MISCELLANEOUS 

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended,
supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions
to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, as
the case may be, may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such
amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive any portion of or reduce the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan,
reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)) or
extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce the voting rights of any 

  
 75 








 
Lender under this Section 10.1 or otherwise amend this Section 10.1 in any manner adverse to any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;
(iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrowers of any of their rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or
substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, release all or a material portion of any Collateral, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of
Section 2.17 without the written consent of the Required Lenders; (v) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders without the written consent of all Lenders; or (vi) amend, modify or waive any
provision of Article 9 or any other provision of any Loan Document that affects the Administrative Agent without the written consent of the Administrative Agent. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall
apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall
be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other
Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or
amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time
outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to
include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. 
 Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall increase or extend the Commitment of such Defaulting
Lender, forgive any portion of or reduce the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loans or reduce the stated amount of any interest
or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders)), in each case, without the consent of such
Defaulting Lender.

 10.5 Expenses; Indemnification;
Damage Waiver. 
 (a) Costs and Expenses. Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay (i) all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Arranger, the Administrative Agent and their Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the
Facility, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any amendments, modification or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Arranger, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent
or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans, including all
such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. 

  
 78 








 (b) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Arranger,
the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursement of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrowers
or any other Loan Party) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of
the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property operated by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrowers or any

or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are found by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrowers or any other
Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrowers or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 10.5(b) shall not apply with respect to any Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(c) Reimbursement by the Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required
under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Arranger, the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Arranger, the Administrative Agent (or such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought
based on each Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage of the Aggregate Exposures at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that the unreimbursed expense
or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Arranger or the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any
of the foregoing acting for the Arranger or the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. 

  
 79 








 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to
in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission
systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 (e)
Payments. All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. 

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts
payable hereunder. 
 10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) neither Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and any attempted assignment
or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. 

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an

unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, of: 
 (A) the Borrowers, provided that (1) no consent of the
Borrowers shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; and (2) the Borrowers shall be deemed to have
consented to any such assignment unless they shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment
of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be

 80 








 
amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under the Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the
date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $300,000 unless each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that
(1) no such consent of the Borrowers shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together
with (other than as waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in
which the Assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrowers and their Affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective Securities)
will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws; and 

(D) no assignment shall be made to (1) a natural Person, (2) the Lead Borrower or any of its Affiliates or
Subsidiaries or (3) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (3). 

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a
natural person) that is or will be engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (i) a Lender, (ii) an
Affiliate of a Lender or (iii) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.  

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the
effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.19, 2.20 and
10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under 

  
 81 








 
this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 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 paragraph (c) of this Section.  
 (iv) The Administrative Agent,
acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of,
and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent 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. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the
Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such
assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that, if either the assigning
Lender or the Assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.17(d), 3.4, 10.5(c) or 10.7(a), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to
accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement
unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers or
the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than any Person described in paragraph (b)(ii)(D) of this Section) (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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent 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 pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.17, 2.19 and 2.20 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.19(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under
Section 2.19(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by 

  
 82 








 
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.21 and
2.22 as if it were an Assignee and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have
been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurred after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at
the Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.22 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a
participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in
the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity
of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United Stated Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (d) Any Lender may 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, 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. 
 10.7 Adjustments; Setoff. 

(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement, any other Loan Document or a court order expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a
particular Lender or to the Lenders, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it (other than in connection with an assignment made pursuant to
Section 10.6), or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a
greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest
in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such
collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of 

  
 83 








 
such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such
recovery, but without interest. 
 (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the
right, without notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any Obligations becoming due and payable by the Borrowers (whether at the stated maturity, by
acceleration or otherwise), to apply to the payment of such Obligations, by setoff or otherwise, 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, any Affiliate thereof or any of their respective branches or agencies to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrowers. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application.

 10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as
delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. 

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such
jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable
such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the
entire agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender
relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the nonexclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of
New York, and appellate courts from any thereof; 

  
 84 








 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; 

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail
(or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrowers, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified
pursuant thereto; 
 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law
or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may
have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 

10.13 Acknowledgments. Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges that: 

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

(b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to either of the Borrowers arising
out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of
debtor and creditor; and 
 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the
transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrowers and the Lenders.

Liens. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent is
hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 10.1) and agrees to take any action requested by the Borrowers having the effect of
releasing any Guarantee Obligations and/or any Collateral (i) to the extent necessary to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document or that has been consented to in accordance with
Section 10.1, (ii) under the circumstances described in paragraph (b) below or (iii) to the extent required by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement. 

(b) At such time as the Loans and the other obligations under the Loan Documents shall have been paid in full and the Commitments have been
terminated, the Security Documents 

  
 85 








 
and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without
delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. 
 10.15 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the

law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in
respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.15 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not

prospective Transferee or any direct or indirect counterparty to any Swap Agreement (or any professional advisor to such counterparty), (c) to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors or those of
any of its Affiliates, (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (f) if
