EMPLOYEES OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING, FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS OR CAUSES OF ACTION OF ANY KIND, NATURE OR DESCRIPTION, WHETHER ARISING IN LAW OR EQUITY OR UPON CONTRACT OR TORT OR UNDER ANY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW OR OTHERWISE BUT ONLY TO THE
EXTENT ARISING UNDER, ON ACCOUNT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE 

  
 5 








 
LOANS AND/OR THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, WHICH SUCH LOAN PARTY HAS HAD, NOW HAS OR HAS MADE CLAIM TO HAVE AGAINST ANY SUCH PERSON FOR OR BY REASON OF ANY ACT, OMISSION, MATTER, CAUSE OR THING
WHATSOEVER ARISING FROM THE BEGINNING OF TIME TO AND INCLUDING THE FIRST AMENDMENT EFFECTIVE DATE, WHETHER SUCH CLAIMS, DEMANDS AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARE MATURED OR UNMATURED OR KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ALL CLAIMS,
DEMANDS OR CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR PART FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABLITY OF AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PARTY PURPORTED TO BE RELEASED HEREBY. 

The foregoing release shall apply to all unknown or unanticipated results of any events occurring prior to the time this Amendment is signed,
as well as those known or anticipated. Each Loan Party, to the extent permitted by law, expressly waives any and all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California with respect to the claims released herein.
Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California provides as follows: 
 A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor. 

Each Loan Party, to the extent permitted by law, expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and benefits afforded by said Section 1542,
and any comparable state or federal law. Each Loan Party understands that the facts in respect of which the foregoing release is given may hereafter turn out to be different from the facts now known or believed to be true. Each Loan Party hereby
accepts and assumes the risk that those facts may ultimately be found to be different, and agrees that the foregoing Release shall be in all respects effective, and not subject to termination or rescission by virtue of any such factual differences.

(I(I) the Junior Capital Event shall have occurred; (J) upon the Administrative Agent’s written request (which may be made at its sole option), the financial covenants set
forth in Section 6.11 shall be amended so as to reset such financial covenants at levels satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in light of the then financial plan and forecast for Borrowers as delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(f),
which  

  
 -48- 








 
financial plan and forecast shall be updated at the Administrative Agent’s request if the most recently delivered financial plan and
forecast does not reflect the occurrence the proposed Facility Increase (provided that for the avoidance of doubt, (x) the Administrative Agent shall not be required in any event to consent to any amendment to such financial covenants,
including any amendment that would make such financial covenants less restrictive, (y) any such amendment to make such financial covenants less restrictive shall require the consent of the Required Lenders at their sole option, and (z) the
Administrative Agent’s right to require an amendment pursuant to this clause (J) shall be in addition to the similar right (including any exercise of such right) in connection with the Junior Capital Event); and (K) any collateral
securing any such Incremental Commitments shall also secure all other Obligations on a pari passu basis. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate any Agent or any Lender to participate in or arrange for any Facility
Increase. 
 (ii) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the proposed Facility Increase and of the proposed terms
and conditions therefor agreed between the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each such Lender may, at its sole option, commit to participate in such Facility Increase by forwarding its commitment thereto to the Administrative
Agent in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In consultation with the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall allocate the commitments to be made as part of the Facility Increase to the Lenders from which it
has received commitments. If the Administrative Agent does not receive sufficient commitments from existing Lenders to effectuate the Facility Increase, it may at its election allocate unsubscribed amounts to any other Person who would constitute an
Eligible Assignee, and absent such allocation, such Facility Increase shall not become effective. 
 (iii) Each Facility Increase shall
become effective on a date agreed by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (a “Facility Increase Date”), subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02. 

(iv) On the Facility Increase Date for any Facility Increase applicable to the Commitments, each Lender or Person participating in such
Facility Increase (each, a “Participating Lender” and collectively, the “Participating Lenders”) shall purchase from each existing Lender an undivided interest in the outstanding Loans so as to ensure that, on the
Facility Increase Date after giving effect to such Facility Increase, each Lender holds its Pro Rata Share in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding on such Facility Increase Date. 

(v) Each Facility Increase shall be evidenced by an amendment or supplement to this Agreement executed by the Borrowers (and consented to by
all other Loan Parties), the Administrative Agent and the Participating Lenders. Unless otherwise agreed by the Loan Parties, all Lenders (including the Participating Lenders) and the Administrative Agent, the Commitments made to consummate a
Facility Increase shall be subject to the pricing, interest rate, fee and amortization provisions of this Agreement then applicable to the Commitments. Upon closing of a Facility Increase, new Participating Lenders shall be deemed to be Lenders, and
the Commitments made pursuant to a Facility Increase shall for all purposes be deemed to be Commitments hereunder. 

  
 -49- 








 (vi) For purposes of this Section, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

 (A) “Initial Yield” shall mean, with respect to any Incremental Commitment, the amount (as determined by the
Administrative Agent) equal to the sum of (i) the margin above the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such Incremental Commitment (including as margin the effect of any floor applicable to the Adjusted LIBO Rate on the date of the calculation), plus
(ii) (x) the amount of any Up-Front Fees on such Incremental Commitments (including any fee or discount received by the Lenders in connection with the initial extension thereof), divided by (y) the lesser of (1) the Weighted
Average Life to Maturity of such Incremental Commitments, and (2) four. 
 (B) “Up-Front Fees” shall mean the amount
of any fees or discounts received by the Lenders in connection with the making of Loans or extensions of credit, expressed as a percentage of such Loan or extension of credit. For the avoidance of doubt, “Up-Front Fees” shall not include
any arrangement fee paid to the Lead Arranger. 
 (C) “Weighted Average Life to Maturity” shall mean, when applied to any
Indebtedness at any date, the number of years obtained by dividing (i) the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (x) the amount of each then remaining installment, sinking fund, serial maturity or other required payments of
principal, including payment at final maturity, in respect thereof, by (y) the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth) that will elapse between such date and the making of such payment by (ii) the then outstanding principal
amount of such Indebtedness. 
 SECTION 2.02 Loans and Borrowings. 

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
respective Commitments. Any Protective Advance shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04. 
 (b)
Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars and comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan shall be denominated in
Dollars and shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the
obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) With regard to Eurodollar Borrowings:
at the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000. ABR Revolving Borrowings may be in any
amount. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of five (5) Eurodollar Revolving Borrowings outstanding. 

  
 -50- 








 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be entitled to
request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

SECTION 2.03 Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
request by telephone (or, if permitted by Administrative Agent, by request posted to Administrative Agent’s StuckyNET system) (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business
Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic (or posted) Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable
and the Administrative Borrower agrees to promptly confirm any such telephonic request by hand delivery, facsimile or Electronic Transmission to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent
and signed by the Administrative Borrower. Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Sections 2.01 and 2.02: 

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing, which amount shall be based upon and consistent with the then-current cash needs of the
Borrower to be specifically set forth in the Borrowing Request; 
 (ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; 

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the

 (v) in the case of a Revolving Borrowing, the Availability (after giving effect to
such Borrowing); and 
 (vi) if not a conversion or continuance, the Borrower to whom the proceeds from such Borrowing are to be disbursed.

 If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is
specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

 SECTION 2.04 Protective Advances. 

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in
the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable
(i) to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to
be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of principal, interest, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.04) and other sums payable
under the Loan Documents (any of such Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that no Protective Advance shall cause the Aggregate Exposure to exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments then in
effect; provided further that, the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, together with the aggregate amount of all Overadvance Loans made pursuant to
Section 2.01(b), shall not exceed ten percent (10%) of the Aggregate Commitment. Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances
shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances shall be ABR Borrowings. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective
Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Lenders to make a Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to
fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b). 
 (b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the
Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative
Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Commitments. Each Lender shall transfer (a “Transfer”) the amount of
such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Protective Advance with respect to such purchased interest and participation promptly when requested to the Administrative Agent, to such account of the
Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, but in any case not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day notified (if notice is provided by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. New York City time, and
otherwise on the immediately following Business Day (the “Transfer Date”). Transfers may occur during the existence of a Default or an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in
Section 4.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amount of the Protective Advance and, together with Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Protective Advance,
shall constitute Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any Lender on such Transfer Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender
together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.07. From and after the date, if any, on which any 

  
 -52- 








 
Lender is required to fund, and funds, its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance. 

SECTION 2.05 Swingline Loans. 

(a) The Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, promptly after the Administrative Borrower requests an ABR Borrowing, the Swingline Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to have the terms of this Section 2.05(a) apply to such Borrowing Request by
advancing, on behalf of the Lenders and in the amount requested, same day funds to the Borrowers on the applicable Borrowing date to the Funding Account (each such Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05(a)
is referred to in this Agreement as a “Swingline Loan”), with settlement among them as to the Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.05(c). Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all
the terms and conditions applicable to other ABR Loans funded by the Lenders, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Swingline Lender solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall
not exceed $4,000,000. The Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan if the requested Swingline Loan exceeds Availability (after giving effect to such Swingline Loan). Swingline Loans may not be made if the Swingline Lender has been
notified by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders that a Default exists and that Swingline Loans may not be made. All Swingline Loans shall be ABR Borrowings. 

(b) Upon the making of a Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default and regardless of whether
a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Swingline Loan), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent,
as the case may be, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in proportion to its Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Commitments. The Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any
time, require the Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund, and funds, its participation in any Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan. 

(c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Lenders
on at least a weekly basis or on any date that the Administrative Agent elects, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephone or Electronic Transmission no later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time on the date of such
requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender, in the case of the Swingline Loans) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal
amount of the applicable Swingline Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Administrative Agent, to such account of the 

  
 -53- 








 
Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default or
an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the Swingline
Lender’s Swingline Loans and, together with Swingline Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan, shall constitute Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any
Lender on such Settlement Date, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon as specified in Section 2.07. 

SECTION 2.06 Letters of Credit. 

(a) Issuance. 
 (i)
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and Lenders agree to incur, from time to time prior to the Maturity Date, upon the request of the Administrative Borrower and for a Borrower’s account, Letter of
Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued by (i) Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof), (ii) a Lender (or an Affiliate thereof) selected by or acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (iii) a bank or other
legally authorized Person selected by or acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and guaranteed by the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof) (a “Letter of Credit Guaranty”) (each of (i) through
(iii), an “Issuing Bank”). The aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the leastlesser of (A) Four
Million Dollars ($4,000,000) (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit”), and (B) the aggregate Commitments less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans and Swingline Loans, and (C) the Borrowing Base less
the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Loans and Swingline Loans and (B) Availability. No such Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date that is more than one
year following the date of issuance thereof, unless otherwise determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (including with respect to customary evergreen provisions), and neither Administrative Agent nor Lenders shall be under any
obligation to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date that is later than the Maturity Date (though, for the avoidance of doubt, such obligation shall in any
event extend to a Letter of Credit that includes a customary evergreen provision that could cause such expiry date to potentially extend beyond the Maturity Date). 

(b) Advances Automatic; Participations. 

(i) In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank shall make any payment on or pursuant to any Letter of Credit Obligation,
such payment shall then be deemed automatically to constitute a Loan under Section 2.01 of this Agreement regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding the Borrowers’
failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02, and each Lender shall be obligated to pay its Applicable Percentage thereof in accordance 

  
 -54- 








 
with this Agreement. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank for Administrative Agent’s or Issuing Bank’s own account its Applicable
Percentage of any such Loan or payment by Administrative Agent under or in respect of a Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank its Applicable
Percentage thereof, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available such other Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any such payment. 

(ii) If it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Borrower to incur Loans as contemplated by Section 2.06(b)(i) because of an Event
of Default described in Section 7.01(g), Section 7.01(h), Section 7.01(i) or otherwise, if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Lender to be deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement
obligations owed to an Issuing Bank, or if the Issuing Bank is a Lender, then (i) immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Administrative Agent (or
such Issuing Bank, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (based on the Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then outstanding and
(ii) thereafter, immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Administrative Agent (or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be) an undivided interest and
participation in such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (based on the Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or
disbursements made under the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in this Agreement with respect to Loans. 
 (c) Cash
Collateral. 
 (i) If the Borrowers are required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to this
Agreement prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers will pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and Lenders cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Administrative Agent (“Cash Equivalents”) in an amount equal
to 105% of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account (the “Cash Collateral
Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Administrative Agent. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Administrative Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Borrowers hereby pledge and grant to Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, a security interest in all such funds and
Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. This
Agreement, including, without limitation, this Section 2.06, shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. 

  
 -55- 








 (ii) If any Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any
reason be outstanding on the Maturity Date, Borrowers shall either (a) provide cash collateral therefore in the manner described above, (b) cause all such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof, if any, to be canceled and returned, or
(c) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guarantee of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an
amount equal to 105% of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate and shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and
conditions, as are be satisfactory to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. 
 (iii) From time to time after funds are deposited in
the Cash Collateral Account by the Borrowers, whether before or after the Maturity Date, Administrative Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as
Administrative Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by the Borrowers to Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit Obligations of the Borrowers and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of
Credit Obligations of the Borrowers, to any other Obligations then due and payable. 
 (iv) Neither any Borrower nor any Person claiming on
behalf of or through any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all amounts payable
by the Borrowers to Administrative Agent and Lenders in respect thereof, any funds remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied to other Obligations then due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations any remaining amount
shall be paid to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by law. Interest earned on deposits in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held as additional Collateral for the Obligations. 

(d) Fees and Expenses. Each Borrower agrees to pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders
for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) all costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit
Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time in effect (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.13(d) of this Agreement) for
Revolving Eurodollar Loans multiplied by the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit. In addition, Borrower shall pay to any Issuing Bank, on demand, such fees (including all per annum fees),
charges and expenses of such Issuing Bank in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such
Letter of Credit is issued. 
 (e) Request for Incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations. Borrowers shall give Administrative Agent
at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the Issuing Bank) and an
application therefor completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Bank. 

  
 -56- 








 (f) Obligation Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse Administrative Agent
and Lenders for payments made with respect to any Letter of Credit Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities, and the obligations of each Lender to make
payments to Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, with respect to Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable. Such obligations of the Borrowers and Lenders shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof
under all circumstances including the following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents or any other agreement; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or
any of its Affiliates or any Lender may at any time have against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such transferee may be acting), Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person,
whether in connection with this Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or any of its Affiliates and the beneficiary for
which the Letter of Credit was procured); 
 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of
Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 

(iv) payment by the Administrative Agent (except as otherwise expressly provided in paragraph (g)(ii)(c) below) or any Issuing Bank under any
Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such guaranty; 

(v) any other circumstance or event whatsoever, that is similar to any of the foregoing; or 

(vi) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

(g) Indemnification; Nature of Lenders’ Duties. 

(i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby agrees to pay and to protect, indemnify, and
save harmless Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and allocated costs of internal
counsel) that the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender seeking indemnification or of any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de
facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction). 

  
 -57- 








 (ii) As between the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, on one hand, and the
Borrowers, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law none of
the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for: (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for an issuance
of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer
or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully
with conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that in the case of any payment by Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (or guaranty thereof), Administrative Agent or
Issuing Bank shall be liable to the extent such payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such
Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of
any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they may be in cipher; (E) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (F) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to
make a payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof or of the proceeds thereof; (G) the credit of the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; and (H) any consequences arising from causes beyond the
control of Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any of Administrative Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or any Lender’s rights or powers hereunder or under this
Agreement. 
 (iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any waivers, covenants, or indemnities made by the any
Borrower in favor of any Issuing Bank in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between such Borrower and such Issuing Bank. 

(h) Subrogation Rights; Letter of Credit Guaranty. 

(i) Upon any payments made by Administrative Agent to an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit Guaranty, the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the Lenders, shall acquire by subrogation, any rights, remedies, duties or obligations granted to or undertaken by the applicable Borrower to the Issuing Bank in any application for Letter of Credit, any standing agreement relating to
Letters of Credit or otherwise, all of which shall be deemed to have been granted to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and apply in all respects to the Administrative Agent and shall be in addition to any rights, remedies, duties
or obligations contained herein. 

  
 -58- 








 (ii) Each Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any Issuing Bank which is not a Lender
hereunder to deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Issuing Bank pursuant to such Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Administrative Agent’s instructions
with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Letter of Credit and the related application. 
 (iii) Any and all charges,
commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Administrative Agent relating to Letters of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank which is not a Lender hereunder in reliance on a Letter of Credit Guaranty shall be Letter of Credit Obligations for purposes
of this Agreement and immediately shall be reimbursable by Borrowers to Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 2.07 Funding of Borrowings.

 (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available
funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05.
The Administrative Agent will promptly make the proceeds of each such Loan available to the relevant Borrowers in like funds at the account of such Borrowers designated by the Administrative Borrower in the Borrowing Request; provided that a
Protective Advance may be retained by the Administrative Agent. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on
such date in accordance with Section 2.07(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Lender and the Borrowers
severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of any Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then
such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.08 Interest Elections. 

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing,
shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrowers may elect to convert 

  
 -59- 








 
such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08.
The Borrowers may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans
comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, the Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such
election by telephone (or, if permitted by Administrative Agent, by request posted to Administrative Agent’s StuckeyNet system) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were
requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic (or posted) Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand
delivery, facsimile or Electronic Transmission to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Administrative Borrower. 

(c) Each telephonic (or posted) and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected
with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting
Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.” 
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a
Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each affected Lender of the details
thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Administrative Borrower fails to deliver a timely
Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such


  
 -60- 








 
Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if a Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders so notifies the Administrative Borrower or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then, so long as such Default or Event of Default is continuing (i) Administrative Borrower may not elect a Eurodollar
Borrowing in any Borrowing Request, (ii) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at
the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

other Obligations together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

provided that (i) each reduction of the aggregate Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrowers shall not reduce the Commitments if, (a) after giving
effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the Aggregate Exposure would exceed the Borrowing Base then in effecttrigger a
mandatory prepayment, or an obligation to deliver cash collateral, or both, under Section 2.11(b)(i) or (b) after giving effect to such reduction, the aggregate
CommitmentsAggregate Commitment shall be less than $30,000,000. 

(d) The Administrative Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Sections
2.09(a), (b) or (c) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice,
the Administrative Agent shall advise the affected Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination
of the Commitments delivered by the Administrative Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Administrative Borrower (by notice to the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in
accordance with their respective Commitments.

the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (e) The entries made in the
accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.10(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each of the applicable Borrowers shall
prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at
all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.05) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns except to the extent that any such Lender
subsequently returns any such promissory note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in Sections 2.10(c) and (d).

 SECTION 2.11 Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in

(b) Mandatory Prepayments. 

(i) The Borrowers shall immediately repay, or provide cash collateral for, the Loans, and/or Swingline Loans if at any time after the

required to eliminate such excesscause Availability to be not less than zero. 

(ii) Immediately upon receipt by any Loan Party of the Net Cash Proceeds of any asset disposition (other than sales of Inventory or obsolete

(iii) If (A) at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default or
pursuant to the completion of the Junior Capital Event, any Borrower issues Capital Stock (other than Capital Stock issued to another Loan Party), (B) any Loan Party issues Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Sections

(v) Without in any way limiting the foregoing, immediately upon receipt by any Loan Party of proceeds of any sale of any Collateral, the
Borrowers shall cause such Loan Party to deliver such proceeds to the Administrative Agent, or deposit such proceeds in a deposit account subject to a control agreement acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Nothing in this

The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate per annum on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment during the period from and including
the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Lenders’ Commitments terminate. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the first calendar day following each calendar quarter and on the date on which the Commitments
terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. All commitment fees in respect of Commitments shall be payable in Dollars and shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

 (b) The Borrowers agree to pay the fees due and payable pursuant to the Fee Letter and fees payable in the amounts and at the times
separately agreed upon between the Borrowers, the Lead Arranger and the Administrative Agent.

 SECTION 2.13 Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable
Margin. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in
effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Each Protective Advance shall bear interest at the sum of the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus 2%. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
under Section 7.01(g) or (h) or so long as any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders elect, at their option, by notice to the Administrative Borrower (which
notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.03 requiring the consent of “each Lender affected thereby” for reductions in interest rates), the outstanding principal
amount of all Loans and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments thereon not paid when due and any fees and other amounts then due and payable hereunder, shall, commencing upon the occurrence of such Event of Default,
notwithstanding, if applicable, when such election is made, bear interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand by the Administrative Agent at a rate
that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the interest
rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for ABR Loans). 
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan, upon termination of the Commitments and on the Maturity Date; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.13(d) shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any
repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, and
(iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(f) All interest and Letter of Credit Fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 -65- 








 SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest
Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error)
that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing
for such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or
facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that
requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR
Borrowing. 
 SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity
requirement, compulsory loan, deposit insurance or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve
requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or 
 (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition
affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of
making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional
amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender 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 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 or liquidity adequacy), 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. 

  
 -66- 








 (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such
Lender or its holding company, as specified in Sections 2.15(a) or (b) shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on
any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section
for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’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 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive
effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan
other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the
failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(d) and is revoked in accordance
therewith), 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 Administrative Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or 9.03(e), then,
in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by
such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the
period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the
amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other
banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

SECTION 2.17 Taxes. 
 (a)
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes other than deductions on account of
Taxes that 

  
 -67- 








 
are required by law; provided that (i) if any Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, such Borrowers shall increase
the sum payable by an amount equal to the sum of (x) the amount deducted in respect of such Indemnified Taxes and (y) all Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17(a), (ii) such Borrowers and/or
the Administrative Agent shall make only such deductions required by law, and (iii) such Borrowers and/or the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(c) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and any other Taxes, in each case, paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower or any other Loan
Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) 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. Such indemnification shall be made on an after-Tax basis, such that the payment of the indemnification shall be increased by
an amount equal to the sum of (x) the amount deducted in respect of such Indemnified Taxes, (y) all Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17(c) and (z) all reasonable expenses of the
Administrative Agent or Lender. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of either any Indemnified Taxes or any other Taxes by any
Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Administrative Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) if reasonably available, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such
payment, (ii) a copy of the return reporting such payment or (iii) other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Any Lender that is legally entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the
relevant Borrowers are located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on or prior to the date on
which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and on or before the date that any such documentation described below expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change to such documentation), such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the foregoing, each
Non-U.S. Lender shall comply with any certification, documentation, information or other reporting necessary to establish relief or an exemption from withholding under FATCA and shall provide any other documentation reasonably requested by Loan
Party or Administrative Agent sufficient for the Loan Party and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Non-U.S. Lender has complied with such applicable reporting requirements. However, a Lender


  
 -68- 








 
will only be required to comply with the provisions of this paragraph (i) as long as such Lender is legally entitled to do so and (ii) if compliance with the provisions of this
paragraph does not materially impact, in the sole discretion of such Lender, such Lender’s commercial position. 
 (f) If the
Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund, whether in the form of a payment, credit or offset (but only to the extent such credit or offset is actually utilized), of any Indemnified Taxes as
to which it has been indemnified by any Borrowers or with respect to which any Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.17(a) and no Event of Default is then continuing, it shall pay over such refund to such Borrowers
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrowers under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses and Taxes of
the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid, credited or allowed as an offset, by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund, which interest shall be paid to such Borrowers);
provided, that such Borrowers, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to such Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority)
to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Nothing in this Section 2.17 shall be construed to require the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to the Borrowers or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less
favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. 

SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees or of amounts payable
under Sections 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date
may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 11
West 42nd St., New York, New York 10036 except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections
2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for
payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall


  
 -69- 








 
be made in Dollars. Checks and cash or other immediately available funds from collections of items of payment and proceeds of any Collateral shall be applied in whole or in part against the
Obligations, on the first Business Day following the day of receipt by the Administrative Agent, subject to actual collection. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Administrative Borrower, or unless a Default or an Event of Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any
payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan, or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans and, in
any event, the applicable Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. 
 (c) At the
election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.04), and other sums payable
under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder whether made following a request by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03 or a deemed request as provided in this
Section 2.18 or may be deducted from any deposit account of the applicable Borrowers under the control of the Administrative Agent pursuant to a Blocked Account Agreement or other control agreement in form and substance satisfactory to
the Administrative Agent. The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize (i) the Administrative Agent to make a Borrowing for the purpose of paying each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due
under the Loan Documents and agree that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Swingline Loans and Protective Advances) and that all such Borrowings shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Sections 2.03,
2.04 or 2.05, as applicable, and (ii) the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of the Borrowers maintained with the Administrative Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or
any other amount due under the Loan Documents. 
 (d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any
other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the
Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). 

  
 -70- 








 The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law,
that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrowers rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Administrative
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable
Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrowers
have not in fact made such payment, then each of such Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with
interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 (f) If any Lender shall fail to make any
payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(b), 2.05, 2.06(b), 2.07, 2.18(e) or 8.07, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof),
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under any such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if
the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then: 

(a) such Lender shall 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 (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.15 or
2.17, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (and the Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment); and 
 (b) the Borrowers may, at their sole expense
and effort, require such Lender or any Defaulting Lender (such Lender or Defaulting Lender herein, a “Departing Lender”), upon notice from the Administrative Borrower to the Departing Lender and the Administrative Agent, to assign
and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have 

  
 -71- 








 
received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) the Departing Lender shall have received payment
of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued
interest and fees) or the applicable Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Departing 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. 
 SECTION 2.20 Indemnity
for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person
because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or
part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the Borrowers shall be liable to
pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and each Borrower hereby indemnifies the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and holds the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The
provisions of this Section 2.20 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such
contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final
and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.21
Defaulting Lenders. In the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the fee payable to Lenders in
respect of Section 2.12(a), and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fee pursuant to Section 2.12(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment or Loans. 

(b) the Commitments and Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have
taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 9.03), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of each affected Lender which affects
such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

  
 -72- 








 (c) in the event a Defaulting Lender has defaulted on its obligation to fund any Loan, or
purchase any participation pursuant to Section 2.05(b) or Section 2.06(b) hereof, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender has been reduced to zero, any prepayments or repayments on account
of the Loans or participations purchased pursuant to Section 2.05(b) or Section 2.06(b) shall be applied to the Loans and funded participations of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans or funded
participations outstanding. 
 (d) If any Swingline Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding at the time a Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) all or any part of such Swingline Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated among the
non-defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage of the total Commitment provided that no Lender’s Exposure shall exceed its Commitment; 

(ii) if the reallocation described in paragraph (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one
Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (A) first, prepay the amount of the Swingline Loans equal to Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to paragraph
(i) above and (B) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Letter of Credit Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to paragraph (i) above) in accordance with the
procedures set forth in Section 2.06(c) and for so long as any such Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding; 
 (iii) if
the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.21(d), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 2.06(d) with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Letter of Credit Obligations which have been cash collateralized (and the Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to
receive any such fees); 
 (iv) if the Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Letter of Credit Obligations are reallocated
pursuant to this Section 2.21, then the letter of credit fees payable to the non-defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.06(d) shall be adjusted accordingly; and 

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Letter of Credit Liabilities is not cash collateralized or reallocated pursuant
to this Section 2.21(d), then without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.06(d) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of Letter of Credit Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Bank. 
 (e) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the
Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the
Commitments of the non-defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral 

  
 -73- 








 
will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.06(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued, extended or increased Letter of Credit or newly made
Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(d)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). 

(f) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately
remedied all matters which caused such Lender to become a Defaulting Lender, then the Applicable Percentages of Swingline Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s
Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) or participations in the Loans as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to
hold such Loans or participations in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. 
 (g) The rights and remedies with respect to a Defaulting
Lender under this Section 2.21 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

ARTICLE III 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

The Borrowers represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank that: 

SECTION 3.01 Organization; Powers. Each of the Loan Parties and each of its Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to so qualify could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 

SECTION 3.02 Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Loan Party’s corporate powers and have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action. The Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such
Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of
whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 SECTION 3.03 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions
(a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except any filings of the Mortgages
or any of the foregoing which are immaterial in nature and except for filings necessary to perfect Liens created under the Loan Documents, as contemplated by Section 3.16, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the
charter, 

  
 -74- 








 
by-laws or other organizational documents of any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any material
indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and (d) will not result in the
creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries except Liens created under the Loan Documents. 

SECTION 3.04 Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. 

(a) The Pro Forma Information (including the notes thereto), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared
giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) consummation of the Transactions, (ii) the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder to be made on the Effective Date and the use of proceeds thereof and
(iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Information has been prepared based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders
that such information as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projectionsthe financial plan
and forecast may differ materially from the projected results. 
 (b) ICD has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (i) audited
combined balance sheets of ICD as of each of the Fiscal Years ending in December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 and the notes thereto and the related combined statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of ICD for
the Fiscal Years then ended and (ii) unaudited combined balance sheets of ICD as of the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2013 and the related combined statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows of ICD for the Fiscal
Quarter then ended (subject to non-cash income adjustments related to derivative liability with respect to Capital Stock of ICD consisting of warrants, tax liability and other items agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Such financial statements
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of ICD as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP, subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes
in the case of the statements referred to in clauses (ii) and (iii) above. 
 (c) Since December 31, 2012, there has been no
change in the business, assets, operations, prospects or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 3.05 Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames,
copyrights, patents and other intellectual property necessary to the current and future anticipated conduct of the Loan Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ business, a correct and complete list of which, as of the Effective Date and after
giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, is set forth on Schedule 3.05, and the use thereof by the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries does not infringe in any material respect upon the rights of any other Person, and the Loan
Parties either (i) own the entire right, title and interest thereto or (ii) hold such interest pursuant to a valid, subsisting and enforceable license. 

  
 -75- 








 SECTION 3.06 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations by or
before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse
determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the Transactions. 

SECTION 3.07 Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders
of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Default has occurred and is continuing.

 SECTION 3.08 Investment and Holding Company Status. No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is, nor is controlled by a company
that is, an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

SECTION 3.09 Taxes. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.09, each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be
filed all federal and other material Tax returns and reports required to have been filed by it and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (x) Taxes that are being Properly Contested and (y) other
Taxes not exceeding $250,000 in the aggregate the non-payment of which, in the aggregate, is not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed on Schedule 3.09, no Tax liens have been filed and no material claims
have been asserted in writing with respect to any such Taxes. 
 SECTION 3.10 ERISA. 

(a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which
liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect the fair market value
of the assets of such Plan, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the
most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $250,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans. 

(b) No Non-U.S. Plan has incurred any unfunded liability which could reasonably be expected to give rise to a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 -76- 








 (c) Except as required by applicable law, or which could not reasonably be expected to give rise

SECTION 3.11 Disclosure. Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries have disclosed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all
agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which they are subject, and all other matters known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. None of the
reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder (as modified or
supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
provided that, with respect to projected financial information, the Borrowers represent only that such projected statements are based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time made. 

SECTION 3.12 Material Agreements. 

(a) As of the Effective Date, each Loan Party has provided to Administrative Agent or its counsel, on behalf of Lenders, accurate and complete
copies (or summaries) of all of the following agreements or documents to which it is subject (the “Material Agreements”) and each of which is listed in Schedule 3.12: (i) supply agreements and purchase agreements not
terminable by such Loan Party within sixty (60) days following written notice issued by such Loan Party and involving transactions in excess of $250,000 per annum; (ii) leases of equipment having a remaining term of one year or longer and
requiring aggregate rental and other payments in excess of $250,000 per annum; (iii) licenses and permits held by the Loan Parties, the absence of which could be reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect; (iv) instruments and
documents evidencing any Indebtedness of such Loan Party in excess of $250,000 and any Lien granted by such Loan Party with respect thereto; (v) instruments and agreements evidencing the issuance of any equity securities, warrants, rights or
options to purchase equity securities of such Loan Party; (vi) its model turnkey contract and its daywork drilling contracts and (vii) any other agreement to which a Loan Party is a party in interest the absence of which could be
reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

default (or event or condition, which after notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a material breach or material default) has occurred under (i) any material contract to which any Borrower is a party or (ii) any instrument or
agreement governing Material Indebtedness. 

  
 -77- 








 SECTION 3.13 Solvency. 

(a) Immediately after the consummation of the Transactions and immediately following the making of each Borrowing and the issuance of each
Letter of Credit, if any, and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Borrowing or such issuance of a Letter of Credit, with respect to any Loan Party, (i) the fair value of the assets of each Loan Party, at a fair
valuation, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of each Loan Party will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability
of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) each Loan Party will be able to pay its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or
otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) each Loan Party will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which it is engaged as such businesses are now conducted and are
proposed to be conducted after the date hereof. 
 (b) No Loan Party intends to, or will permit any of its Subsidiaries to, and believes
that it or any of its Subsidiaries will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the timing of and amounts of cash to be received by it or any such Subsidiary and the timing of the amounts of cash to be
payable on or in respect of its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of any such Subsidiary. 
 SECTION 3.14 Capitalization and
Subsidiaries. As of the Effective Date and after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, Schedule 3.14 sets forth (a) a correct and complete list of the name and relationship to ICD of each and all of ICD’s

record by the Persons identified on Schedule 3.14, and (c) the type of entity of each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party has been (to the extent such concepts
are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and is fully paid and non-assessable. 
 SECTION 3.15
Common Enterprise. The successful operation and condition of each of the Loan Parties is dependent on the continued successful performance of the functions of the group of the Loan Parties as a whole and the successful operation of each of
the Loan Parties is dependent on the successful performance and operation of each other Loan Party. Each Loan Party expects to derive benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body has determined that it may reasonably be expected to
derive benefit), directly or indirectly, from (i) successful operations of each of the other Loan Parties, and (ii) the credit extended by the Lenders to the Borrowers hereunder, both in their separate capacities and as members of the
group of companies. Each Loan Party has determined that execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to be executed by such Loan Party is within its purpose, will be of direct and indirect benefit to such Loan
Party, and is in its best interest. 
 SECTION 3.16 Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents will, when executed and delivered, create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, and (upon the filing of UCC financing statements

Office) such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except for
(a) Permitted Encumbrances, to the extent any such Permitted Encumbrances would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to any applicable law, and (b) Liens perfected only by possession (including possession
of any certificate of title) to the extent the Collateral Agent has not obtained or does not maintain possession of such Collateral. 

SECTION 3.17 Labor Matters. As of the Effective Date and after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions (a) except as
set forth on Schedule 3.17, there is no collective bargaining agreement or other material labor contract covering employees of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, (b) no union or other labor organization is seeking to organize, or
to be recognized as, a collective bargaining unit of employees of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or for any similar purpose, and (c) there is no pending or (to the best of the Borrowers’ knowledge) threatened, strike, work

delivered to the Administrative Agent true, complete and correct copies of the Contribution Documentation (including all schedules, exhibits, annexes, amendments, supplements, modifications and all other documents delivered pursuant thereto or in
connection therewith). The Contribution Documentation as originally executed and delivered by the parties thereto has not been amended, waived, supplemented or modified in any material respect without the consent of the Administrative Agent. On the
Effective Date and after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, none of the Loan Parties or any other party to any of the Contribution Documentation is in default in the performance of or compliance with any provisions under the
Contribution Documentation. The Contribution Transaction, including, without limitation, the contribution of certain assets to ICD as contemplated by the Contribution Agreement, was consummated on March 2, 2012 (the “Contribution
Transaction Closing Date”). To the best of each Loan Party’s knowledge, none of the “Fundamental GES Representations” (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted any
fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case, as of the Contribution Transaction Closing Date. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.19, each of the representations and warranties given by each applicable Loan Party
in the Contribution Documentation is true and correct in all material respects as of the Effective Date.

 -81- 








 
Subsidiaries nor any director, officer, or employee thereof, nor, to the Borrower’s knowledge, any, agent, affiliate or representative
of the Borrower, is an individual or entity that is, or is owned or controlled by a Person that is: (i) the subject of any sanctions administered or enforced by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control, the United
Nations Security Council, the European Union or Her Majesty’s Treasury (collectively, “Sanctions”), nor (ii) located, organized or resident in a country or territory that is the subject of Sanctions (including, without

otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person: (i) to fund or facilitate any activities or business of or with any Person or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding or
facilitation, is the subject of Sanctions; or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the offering, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise).

enter on such property and to remove such Rigs therefrom without interference from, or imposition of any Lien on, such Rig by any owner, landlord, tenant or other Person with an interest in such property. Each Rig (i) constitutes goods which
are movable, of a type normally used in more than one jurisdiction and not designed to be permanently used in any one location; and (ii) is not a fixtures under the laws of any jurisdiction in which any such Rig is located. Each Rig is neither
a “motor vehicle” nor property of the type such that the perfection of a Lien with respect to such Rig would be governed by a certificate-of-title statute and would not be governed exclusively by the UCC. Each Borrower has delivered to the
Administrative Agent true, correct and complete copies of its model turnkey contract and its daywork drilling contracts. Each Borrower represents and warrants that such contracts are not and will not constitute chattel paper or instruments.

Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party agrees that it will not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loans in offering, or to lend,
contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person: (i) to fund or facilitate any activities or business of or with any Person or in any country or territory that, at the time of such
funding or facilitation, is the subject of Sanctions or would result in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions or the United
States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended by any Person (including any Person participating in the offering, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise). 

SECTION 5.09 Insurance. Each Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party and each subsidiary of a Loan Party to, maintain with
financially sound and reputable carriers against: (i) loss or damage by fire and loss in transit; (ii) theft, burglary, pilferage, 

  
 -93- 








 
larceny, embezzlement, and other criminal activities; (iii) business interruption; (iv) general liability; and (v) and such other hazards, liabilities or risks, as is customary in
the business of such Person. All such insurance shall be in amounts, cover such assets and be under policies reasonably acceptable to the Agents. All policies covering the casualty of the Collateral are to be made payable to the Collateral Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, as its interests may appear, in case of loss, under a standard non-contributory “lender” or “secured party” clause and are to contain such other provisions as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably require to fully protect the Secured Parties’ interest in the Collateral and to any payments to be made under such policies. All certificates of insurance are to be delivered to the Agents. In addition, each Borrower will provide
loss payable and additional insured endorsements in favor of the Agents. Such endorsements shall provide for not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Agents of the exercise of any right of cancellation and that any loss
payable thereunder shall be payable notwithstanding any act or negligence of any Loan Party or any Secured Party which might, absent such agreement, result in a forfeiture of all or a part of such insurance payment. The Borrowers will not, and will
not permit any other Loan Party and its Subsidiaries to, use or permit any property to be used in any manner which would be reasonably likely to render inapplicable any insurance coverage. The Borrowers will cause any insurance or condemnation
proceeds received by any Loan Party to be immediately forwarded to the Collateral Agent and the Collateral Agent shall remit such proceeds to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with
Section 2.10(b). Original policies or certificates thereof reasonably satisfactory to the Agents evidencing such insurance shall be delivered to the Agents at least 30 days prior to the expiration of the existing or preceding policies.
For the avoidance of doubt, if any portion of the Collateral is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as an area having special flood hazards and in which flood insurance has been made available under the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (or any amendment or successor act thereto) for which the applicable Loan Party is eligible, then such Loan Party will maintain with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood insurance in an amount sufficient to
comply with applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to such Act. 
 SECTION 5.10 Appraisals. At any time that the
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent requests, each Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party to, at the sole expense of the Loan Parties, provide the Agents with appraisals or updates thereof of their Rigs from an appraiser selected
and engaged by the Agents, and prepared on a basis satisfactory to the Agents, such appraisals and updates to include, without limitation, information required by applicable law and regulations; provided, however, if no Default or
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, only two (2) such appraisals or updates per calendar year shall be conducted at Borrowers’ expense; provided, further, that either Agent may require appraisals or
updates more frequently at its own expense (and Borrowers shall cooperate in the completion of such appraisals and updates). Any access required to complete any appraisal made pursuant to this Section 5.10 shall not constitute an
“inspection” for purposes of Section 5.06. 

  
 -94- 








 SECTION 5.11 Additional Collateral; Further Assurances. 

(a) The Borrowers will, unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, cause each subsidiary of any Loan Party (excluding any Non-U.S.
Subsidiary) formed or acquired after the date of this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to become a Borrower by executing this Agreement through a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent. Upon execution and delivery thereof, each such Person (i) shall automatically become a Loan Party hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties, and obligations in such capacity under the Loan
Documents, and (ii) will grant Liens to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, in any property of such Loan Party which constitutes Collateral. 

(b) Each Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party to cause (i) 100% of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of each of its
Subsidiaries (other than its Non-U.S. Subsidiaries) to be subject at all times to a first priority, perfected Lien (subject to Permitted Encumbrances) in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents or
other security documents as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request, and (ii) 65% of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) and 100% of the issued and
outstanding Capital Stock not entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) in each Non-U.S. Subsidiary directly owned by any Borrower or any Subsidiary to be subject at all times to a first priority, perfected Lien
(subject to Permitted Encumbrances) in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents or other security documents as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request; provided that if, as a result of a
change in applicable law after the date hereof, a pledge of a greater percentage than 65% of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) could not reasonably be expected to
cause (1) undistributed earnings of such Non-U.S. Subsidiary (as determined for federal income tax purposes) to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Non-U.S. Subsidiary’s domestic parent or (2) other material adverse tax
consequences, then the Borrowers will take steps to cause such greater percentage to be subject to a first priority, perfected Lien (subject to Permitted Encumbrances) in favor of the Collateral Agent. 

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, each Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party and each subsidiary of a Loan Party which is
required to become a Loan Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Agents such documents and agreements, and will take or cause to be taken such actions as any Agent may,
from time to time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including but not limited to all items of the type required by Section 4.01 (as applicable). 

(d) If any Loan Party proposes to acquire a fee ownership interest in real property after the date of this Agreement (to the extent such
acquisition is permitted hereunder), if an Event of Default is continuing or if Availability is ever less than $6,000,000, each Borrower will, and will cause each other Loan Party to, provide to the Collateral Agent (upon the Administrative
Agent’s request, which request may be made at the Administrative Agent’s sole option) a mortgage or deed of trust granting the Collateral Agent a first priority Lien on its real property, together with environmental audits, mortgage title
insurance commitment, real property survey, local counsel opinion(s), and, if required by the Collateral Agent, supplemental casualty insurance and flood insurance, and such other documents, instruments or agreements reasonably requested by the
Collateral Agent, in each case, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

 SECTION 5.12 Cash Management. 

(a) Each Loan Party shall (i) instruct all Account Debtors of such Loan Party to remit all payments in respect of any Account on which
such Account Debtor is obligated to a “P.O. Box” or “Lockbox Address” associated with a deposit account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement (each, a “Payment Account”), which remittances shall be collected by
the depository institution at which such “P.O. Box” or “Lockbox Address” is maintained and deposited in such Payment Account, (ii) except with respect to Excluded Accounts, Transition Accounts and the Operating Account,
cause each deposit account held by such Loan Party (including, without limitation, each Payment Account) to become subject to a Blocked Account Agreement pursuant to which (without limiting the terms thereof) all amounts on deposit and available at
the close of each Business Day in such deposit account shall be swept to an account designated by the Collateral Agent (the “Collection Account”), with such sweep instructions to be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed to by the
Collateral Agent and (iii) cause the Operating Account to become subject to a Blocked Account Agreement pursuant to which (without limiting the terms thereof) the Collateral Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, exercise full dominion over such account and sweep all funds on deposit therein to the Collection Account. Without limiting the foregoing, all amounts received by a Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in respect of any deposit account
(or by the depository institution at which such account is held), in addition to all other cash received from any other source, shall upon receipt be deposited into such deposit account. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not cause proceeds of any
deposit accounts to be otherwise redirected. 
 (b) All collected amounts received in the Collection Account shall be distributed and
applied on a daily basis in accordance with Section 2.10(b). 
 (c) If any cash or cash equivalents owned by any Loan Party
(other than (i) de minimis cash or cash equivalents from time to time inadvertently misapplied by any Loan Party, (ii) any funds which are held by any Borrower and any of their respective Subsidiaries on behalf of any customer in the
ordinary course of business and (iii) any funds which are held by any Borrower and any of their respective Subsidiaries in an Excluded Account or, subject to the terms of this Agreement, a Transition Account, in each case, in the ordinary
course of business) are deposited to any account, or held or invested in any manner, otherwise than in a deposit account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement in compliance with Section 5.12(a), then the Collateral Agent shall be
entitled to require the applicable Loan Party to close such account and have all funds therein transferred to an account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement in compliance with Section 5.12(a), and to cause all future deposits to be
made to such account. 
 (d) The Collection Account shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent. Each
Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (x) such Loan Party has no right of withdrawal from the Collection Account, (y) the funds on deposit in the Collection Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of
the obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (z) the funds 

  
 -96- 








 
on deposit in the Collection Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement. In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 5.12, any Loan Party receives or
otherwise has dominion and control of any proceeds or collections required to be transferred to the Collection Account, such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party for the Collateral Agent, shall not be commingled with
any of such Loan Party’s other funds or deposited in any account of such Loan Party and shall promptly be deposited into the Collection Account or dealt with in such other fashion as such Loan Party may be instructed by the Collateral Agent.

 SECTION 5.13 Environmental Matters. The Borrowers shall promptly notify the Lenders of any Release that triggers reporting
obligations under any applicable Environmental Laws. In the event of such a Release, at the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, at their own expense, shall provide to the Lenders within ninety (90) days after the Release an
environmental site assessment report of the property(ies) where such a Release has taken place or that has otherwise been impacted by the Release, by an environmental consulting firm chosen by the Borrowers and reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, addressing the Release, the proposed cleanup, response or remedy and the associated cost. Not limiting the generality of the immediately preceding two sentences, if the Administrative Agent determines that a material
environmental risk exists, the Administrative Agent may independently retain an environmental consulting firm to conduct an environmental site assessment of the property(ies) and the Borrowers hereby grant, and agree to cause any Subsidiary that
owns such property(ies) to grant, access to the property(ties) upon reasonable notice to the Administrative Borrower, subject to the rights of tenants, during normal business hours, provided, however, that no testing, sampling or other invasive
investigation shall be performed as part of such environmental site assessment. 
 SECTION 5.14 Post-Closing Obligations. The Loan
Parties shall comply with each requirement set forth on Schedule 5.14 on or before the date referred to therein (or within such longer period as Administrative Agent may agree at its sole option) with respect to such requirement. 

SECTION 5.15 Qualified ECP
Guarantors. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its
obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 5.15 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be     
hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 5.15 or otherwise under this Agreement, as it relates to such other Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating
to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until each Loan and all other Obligations (other than
contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) have been paid in full and all Commitments and Letters of Credit have been terminated. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section
constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Obligations;

satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

immediately before giving effect to the Permitted Acquisition; 
 (g) Indebtedness which represents an extension, refinancing, or renewal of

fees, interest, default interest, interest on interest, expense reimbursements and indemnities, shall be payable in accordance with the foregoing waterfall provisions irrespective of whether a claim in respect of such amounts is allowed or allowable
in any insolvency proceeding. Administrative Agent’s calculation of the allocation of amounts under the foregoing clauses shall be conclusive and binding upon Secured Parties absent manifest error. 

  
 -112- 








 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations shall be
excluded from the application described above or any other application of proceeds set forth in the Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the

 ARTICLE VIII 

THE AGENTS 
 SECTION
8.01 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints each of the Agents as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on
its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article VIII. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and the
Borrowers shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions contained herein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Agents shall not have any
duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Agents have or be deemed to have 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 Agents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agents” in this Agreement with reference to the
Agents is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only
an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any
discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which such Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (a) the determination of the applicability of
ineligibility criteria and other determinations with respect to the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (b) the making of Protective Advances pursuant to Section 2.04, and (c) the exercise of remedies pursuant to Article
VII, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders. 
 SECTION 8.02 Delegation of Duties. Each
Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees, attorneys-in-fact or through its Related Parties and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to
such duties. Neither Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, employee, attorney-in-fact or Related Party that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

  
 -113- 








 SECTION 8.03 Liability of the Agents. None of the Agents or any of their respective
Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Loan Party and Secured Party hereby
waives and agrees not to assert any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting primarily from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein,
as finally determined in a non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Agents or any of their respective Related Parties shall be: (i) responsible to any other Secured Party for the
due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any recital, statement, warranty or representation in, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement, document or order;
(ii) required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents; (iii) responsible to any
other Secured Party for the state or condition of any properties of the Loan Parties constituting Collateral for the Obligations or any information contained in the books or records of the Loan Parties; (iv) responsible to any other Secured
Party for the validity, enforceability, collectability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other certificate, document or instrument furnished in connection therewith; or (v) responsible to any
other Secured Party for the validity, priority or perfection of any Lien securing or purporting to secure the Obligations or for the value or sufficiency of any of the Collateral. 

SECTION 8.04 Reliance by the Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing,
resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, Electronic Transmission, telegram, facsimile, telex, or telephone message, statement, 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, without limitation, counsel to any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each 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 as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be
indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in
refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders if so required by Section 9.03) and such request and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. 
 SECTION 8.05 Notice of Default. Neither Agent shall be deemed to
have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless such Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that
such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the
Required Lenders in accordance with Section 7.01; provided, however, that unless and until an Agent has received any such request, such 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.

 SECTION 8.06 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agents or any of
their respective Related Parties has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by an Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by such Agent or Related Parties to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or Related Party and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws
relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or Related
Party 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 investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition, and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly
herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by an Agent, neither Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other
condition, or creditworthiness of any Borrower which may come into the possession of any of such Agent or its Related Parties. 
 SECTION
8.07 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders agree toeach Lender agrees to severally (and not jointly)
indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties and without limiting the obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder), ratably according to their
respectiveits Applicable Percentages of the Aggregate Exposure, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action taken or omitted to be
taken by any Agent in connection therewith; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such
Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to an Agent or any other such Person for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be
insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender
agrees severally (and not jointly) to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand, ratably according to its Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Exposure, for any out-of-pocket expenses
(including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal
advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Loan Document, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Loans Parties. The
obligations of the Lenders under this Section 8.07 are subject to Section 9.14 (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this Section 8.07(c)). The undertaking in this Section shall survive the
payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation of any Agent. 

  
 -115- 








 SECTION 8.08 The Agents in Individual Capacity. The financial institutions serving as
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial
advisory, underwriting, or other business with any Borrower and its Affiliates as though they were not Agents hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such financial
institutions or their respective Affiliates may receive information regarding any Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of any such Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge
that neither such Agent nor such financial institution shall be under any obligation to provide such information to the Lenders. With respect to its Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans hereunder, such financial
institutions shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include such financial institutions in
their individual capacities. 
 SECTION 8.09 Successor Agents. 

(a) Any Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Administrative Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring
Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent which shall be any Lender or a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or any political subdivision
thereof which has combined capital and reserves in excess of $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges,
duties and obligations of the retiring Agent and the term “Administrative Agent,” “Collateral Agent,” or “Agents,” as the case may be, shall mean such successor agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it
while it was acting as an Agent. Any resignation by CIT Finance LLC as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.09(a) shall also constitute its resignation as the Collateral Agent, as a Swingline Lender and as the Issuing Bank,
unless otherwise specifically stated in writing by CIT Finance LLC at its sole option. 
 (b) If within forty-five (45) days after
written notice is given of the retiring Agent’s resignation under this Section 8.09 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (or such later date as such retiring
Agent may in its sole discretion notify the Lenders and the Administrative Borrower) (i) the retiring Agent’s resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations
under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required 

  
 -116- 








 
Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. After any
retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.

 SECTION 8.10 Collateral Matters. 

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Lien upon any
Collateral and to terminate any guarantee (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans and reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, and the termination of all outstanding
Letters of Credit (whether or not any of such obligations are due) and all other Obligations (other than contingent indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made); (ii) constituting property being sold
or disposed of if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the Collateral Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 6.03 (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on any such certification
without further inquiry); (iii) constituting property in which no Loan Party owned any interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; (iv) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired
or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement; or (v) pursuant to Section 8.10(b). Except as provided above, the Collateral Agent will not release any of its Liens without the prior written authorization of the
Lenders (as required by Section 9.03); provided that the Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, release the Collateral Agent’s Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $250,000 during each Fiscal Year
without the prior written authorization of any Lender. Upon request by the Collateral Agent or the Borrowers at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release any Collateral Agent’s Liens upon
particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.10. 
 (b) In the event that any Loan Party conveys, sells,
leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of any of the Capital Stock or assets of a Loan Party to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party, in each case in a transaction not prohibited by
Section 6.03 and so long no Event of Default is then continuing or would result therefrom, the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as
may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and at the Administrative Borrower’s expense to release, share or subordinate any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such assets or Capital Stock, and, in the case of a
disposition of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary that is a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by Section 6.03 and as a result of which such Subsidiary would cease to be a Loan Party, thus terminating such Subsidiary’s
Guaranty obligation under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (other than with respect to obligations that expressly survive a termination); provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any
such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent’s reasonable opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and
(ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being 

  
 -117- 








 
released) upon (or obligations of the Borrowers in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrowers, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the
Collateral. In addition, the Collateral Agent agrees to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower and at the Administrative Borrower’s expense to terminate the Liens and security interests created by the Loan
Documents when all the Obligations (other than in respect of contingent indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations for which no claim has been made) are paid in full and all Letters of Credit and Commitments are terminated, and upon
receipt by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Agents and Lenders, of liability releases from the Loan Parties in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan
Document relating to any such Capital Stock, asset or Subsidiary of the Administrative Borrower shall no longer be deemed to be made once such Capital Stock or asset is so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or disposed of. Upon any
release or termination in connection with the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower to evidence the release of the
Collateral Agent’s Liens upon such Collateral all without recourse or warranty. Notwithstanding the foregoing or the payment in full of the Obligations, Collateral Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in the Collateral unless,
with respect to any loss or damage Agents may incur as a result of dishonored checks or other items of payment received by Agents from any Borrower or any Account Debtor and applied to the Obligations, Agents shall, at their option, (i) have
received a written agreement satisfactory to Agents, executed by Administrative Borrower and by any Person whose loans or other advances to Borrowers are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying the Agents and each Lender
from any such loss or damage or (ii) have retained cash Collateral or other Collateral for such period of time as the Agents, in their reasonable discretion, may deem necessary to protect the Agent and each Lender from any such loss or damage.

 (c) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by
any Loan Party or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular
priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure, or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities, and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any of the
Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral
Agent’s own interest in the Collateral and its capacity as one of the Lenders, and that the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing. 

(d) In the event of a foreclosure by any Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or any court ordered sale of the
Collateral, such Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and such Agent, as agent for and representative of Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities
unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any
of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by such Agent at such sale. 

  
 -118- 








 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the
authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and
maintained exclusively by, the applicable Agent (or its agents or designees) in accordance with the Loan Documents for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) any Agent from
exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as such Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) each of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender from exercising the
rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as such) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender or Participant from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.09,
(iv) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Bankruptcy Code or other debtor relief law or (v) any Lender from
exercising any express right or remedy of such Lender under the Loan Documents where an Agent does not have the power and authority under the Loan Documents to act on behalf of such Lender; and provided, further, that if at any time
there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (A) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the applicable Agent pursuant to
Section 8.10 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in Section 8.10, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required
Lenders. Prior to the initial commencement of the exercise of the Collateral Agent’s secured creditor remedies as to the Rigs, the Collateral Agent shall endeavor to consult with the Lenders regarding the nature of the secured remedies it
proposes to commence, provided that nothing in this sentence shall (i) confer any right or remedy in favor of any CreditLoan Party or (ii) confer any
consent or blocking right in respect of the exercise, the manner of exercise or any other aspect related to such remedies. 
 SECTION 8.11
Restrictions on Actions by Lenders. Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by the Administrative Agent or unless acting as part of the
Required Lenders, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or against any Loan Party, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any
security interest in, any of the Collateral. 
 SECTION 8.12 Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as
agent for the purpose of perfecting the Lenders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession of any
such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with
the Collateral Agent’s instructions. 

  
 -119- 








 SECTION 8.13 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees
that any action taken by an Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by an Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, of their respective powers set
forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. 

SECTION 8.14 Reports and Financial Statements; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender: 

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Agents furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, (i) a copy of all financial
statements to be delivered by the Borrowers hereunder, (ii) a copy of any notice of Default or Event of Default received by such Agent and (iii) a copy of each Report; 

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that no Agent (i) makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or
(ii) shall be liable for any information contained in any Report; 
 (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not

on representations of the Borrowers’ personnel; 
 (d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with
Section 9.13; and 
 (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement,
agrees: (i) to hold the Agents and any such other Person or Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans
or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to
pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and any such other Person or Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable costs
of counsel) incurred by the Agents and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender. 

SECTION 8.15 Relation Among Lenders. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or
omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Agents) be authorized to act for, any other Lender.

 SECTION 9.02 Electronic Transmissions; Public-Side Lenders. 

(a) Authorization. Each Agent and its Related Parties is authorized to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole
discretion (but shall not be required to do so), Electronic Transmissions in connection with any Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein; provided, however, that no notice to any Loan Party shall be made by posting to
an Internet or extranet-based site or other equivalent service but may be made by e-mail or E-Fax. Each Borrower and each Secured Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic Transmissions is not necessarily secure and that there
are risks associated with such use, including, without limitation, risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks by hereby authorizing each Agent and its Related Parties to transmit Electronic
Transmissions. 
 (b) Signatures. No Electronic Transmission shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically.
Electronic Transmissions that are not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such Electronic Transmission, an
E-Signature, upon which each Secured Party and Loan Party may rely and assume the authenticity thereof. Each Electronic Transmission containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have
the same effect and weight as a signed paper original. Each E-Signature shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and each Electronic Transmission shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a
“writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, the UCC, the Federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural law governing such
subject matter. Each party or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of an Electronic Transmission or E-Signature under the provisions of any applicable law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed;
provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether an Electronic Transmission or E-Signature has been altered after transmission. 

  
 -122- 








 (c) Separate Agreements. All uses of an E-System shall be governed by and subject to, in
addition to this Section 9.02, separate terms and conditions posted or referenced in such E-System and related agreements, documents or other instruments executed by Secured Parties and Loan Parties in connection with such
use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the confidentiality restrictions posted or referenced in such E-System conflict with the confidentiality restrictions set forth in this Agreement, then
the confidentiality restrictions of this Agreement shall govern and control.  
 (d) Limitation of Liability. All E-Systems and
Electronic Transmissions shall be provided “as is” and “as available.” No Agent or any of their Related Parties warrants the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of any E-Systems or Electronic Transmission and disclaims all
liability for errors or omissions therein. No warranty of any kind is made by any Agent or any of its Related Parties in connection with any E-Systems or Electronic Communication, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects. Each Borrower and each Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) agrees that no Agent have any responsibility for maintaining or providing any
equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with all Electronic Transmissions or otherwise required for any E-System. 

(e) Public-Side Lenders. Each Borrower hereby acknowledge that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e.,
Lenders who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Borrowers agree to clearly and conspicuously designate as “PUBLIC” all
materials that the Loan Parties intend to be made available to Public Lenders. By designating such materials as “PUBLIC”, the Borrowers authorize such materials to be made available to a portion of any E-System designated “Public
Investor” (or equivalent designation), which is intended to contain only information that (x) prior to any public offering of securities by ICD or any other Loan Party, is of a type that would be contained in a customary offering circular
for an offering of debt securities made in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (y) following any public offering of securities by ICD or any other Loan Party, is either publicly available or not material information (though it may
be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to parent or any Loan Party or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and State securities laws. 

SECTION 9.03 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by any Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 9.03(b), and then
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver
of Event of Default, regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Event of Default at the time. 

  
 -123- 








 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter) nor any
provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and (x) the Required Lenders or (y) the
Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders, or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan
Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: 

(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; 

(ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan owing to any Lender or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any
interest or fees payable hereunder to any Lender, without the written consent of such Lender; 
 (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan
owing to any Lender, or any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan owing to any Lender, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder to any Lender, or reduce the amount of, waive or
excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment of any Lender, without the written consent of such Lender; 

(iv) increase the sum of aggregate Commitments to an amount in excess of
$60,000,000125,000,000, except with the consent of each Lender or except as contemplated under Section 2.01(c); 

(v) change Section 2.10(b), Section 2.11(c) or Section 7.03 in a manner that would alter the manner in
which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (vi) increase the advance rates or modify the
definition of “Borrowing Base” or any component definition directly used in such definition if such increase or modification would increase Availability, in each case without the written consent of each Lender, provided that the
foregoing shall not limit the discretion of the Administrative Agent to establish, change or eliminate Reserves (including the Availability Block) or to approve matters relating to completion
of a Junior Capital Event (provided further that to make any financial covenants less restrictive, the consent of the Required Lenders shall be required); 

(vii) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.03(b) or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other
provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; 

  
 -124- 








 (viii) except as provided in Section 8.10 or in any Collateral Document, release all
or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender; 
 (ix) affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be; or 

(x) contractually subordinate any of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent without the consent of each Lender, provided,
however, this subparagraph (ix) shall not apply to a subordination of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent if such subordination arises pursuant to the granting of liens or superpriority claims pursuant to Section 364 of Title
11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, neither the consent of the Required Lenders nor the consent of any affected Lender shall be required for any amendment or supplement to this Agreement entered into pursuant to or in connection with
Section 2.01(c). or any Junior Capital Event (except that to (x) make financial covenants less restrictive, or (y) permit the Junior Capital to be secured
by a Lien, the consent of the Required Lenders shall be required).  
 (d) The Administrative Agent may (i) amend the Commitment
Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.05, (ii) with consent of the Borrowers only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, so long as such
amendment, modification or supplement does not adversely affect the rights of any Lender, (iii) waive payment of the fee required under Section 9.05(b)(ii)(C) and (iv) upon the request of the Lead Arranger, implement any
Flex-Pricing Provisions contained in the Fee Letter or any separate letter agreement with respect to fees payable to CIT Finance LLC or any commitment letter delivered in connection with the transaction which is the subject of this Agreement without
obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement. 
 (e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent
requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but
not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrowers may elect to replace all, but not less than all, Non-Consenting Lenders as
Lenders party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) one or more Eligible Assignees shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lenders

the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the

relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee or any Loan Party is a party thereto; provided that such

negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee in a final nonappealable order or judgment. 
 (c)
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 by it
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; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not, and
shall not be deemed to, release any Person from liability arising under this Agreement (if any) resulting from such Person’s failure to comply with Section 9.13 hereof. The relationship between any Loan Party, on the one hand, and the
Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Agents, on the other hand, shall be solely that of debtor and creditor. None of the Agents, the Issuing Bank or any Lender (i) shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Loan Party, or
(ii) undertakes any 

  
 -127- 








 
responsibility to any Loan Party to review or inform such Loan Party of any matter in connection with any phase of any Loan Party’s business or operations. To the extent permitted by
applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in

 SECTION 9.05 Successors and Assigns. 

(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 (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrowers 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. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that
issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in Section 9.05(c)) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 9.05(b)(ii), any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it). 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining
amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment 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 $5,000,000 in the case of assignments of Commitments, unless each of the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent of


  
 -128- 








 
Administrative Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), provided that no such consent of the Administrative Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, provided further that the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five
(5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; 
 (B) after giving effect to any partial assignment of a Lender’s
Commitment, the assignor’s Commitment shall not be less than $5,000,000; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 payable to the Administrative Agent (unless waived by the Administrative Agent at its sole option); and 

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 9.05(b)(iv), 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 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights
or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.05 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
Section 9.05(c). 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as
ana non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States 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 Commitment of, and principal amount of and interest owing on, 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 Agents, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the absolute owner of any Obligations held
by such Person, as included in the Register, for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (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 Section 9.05(b), if
applicable and any written consent to such 

  
 -129- 








 
assignment required by Section 9.05(b), 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 Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.06, 2.07(b), 2.18(e) or 8.07, 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 all accrued 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, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or
the Lendersany Person a party to this Agreement (other than as is required under the definition of “Eligible Assignee”), sell participations to one or more banks or other
entities who would otherwise constitute Eligible Assignees (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment 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, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clauses (i) through (iii) of the first proviso to
Section 9.03(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 9.05(c)(ii), the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.05(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were
a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii) A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of
the participation to such Participant is made with the Administrative Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless
the Administrative Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though it were a Lender. 

(iii) Each Lender that
sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary 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 “Participation Register”) in a manner that shall cause the Loans to be considered to be in 

  
 -130- 








 
“registered form” for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose
all or any portion of the Participation Register to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is registered under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the
U.S. Federal Income Tax Regulations, or as reasonably requested by the Borrowers in order to comply with their respective reporting and withholding obligations under FATCA. The entries in the Participation Register shall be conclusive absent
manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participation Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement. 

(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 or an Affiliate of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 9.05 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. 

(e) Securitization. In addition to any other assignment permitted pursuant to this Section, Loan Parties hereby acknowledge that
(x) the Lenders, their Affiliates and Approved Funds (“Lender Parties”) may sell or securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to a Lender Party
or the assignment or issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans (such as, for instance, collateralized loan obligations), and (y) such Securitization may be rated by a rating agency. The Loan Parties shall reasonably cooperate with
the Lender Parties to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the
Securitization; provided that (i) any such amendment or additional documentation does not impose material additional costs on Borrower and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not materially adversely affect the rights,
or materially increase the obligations, of Borrower under the Loan Documents or change or affect in a manner adverse to Borrower the financial terms of the Loans, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders or
rating agencies in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify the Lender Parties, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the
Securitization, including any investors in a securitization entity (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Securitization Liabilities”) to which the Lender
Parties or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Securitization Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Loan Document or in any writing
delivered by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Lender Partiers in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their successors or assigns of the Loans, and (ii) agreeing to
reimburse the Lender Parties and the other Securitization Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Securitization Liabilities. 

  
 -131- 








 SECTION 9.06 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by
the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and
shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long
as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The
provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.04 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the
Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

SECTION 9.07 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto
on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable
to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as
provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agents and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.08
Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without
affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 9.09 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or
the Loans have been accelerated, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrowers, any such notice being waived by the Borrowers to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such 

  
 -132- 








 
Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the
Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after
any such set-off and application made by such Lender or any Affiliate; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDER OR
AFFILIATE THEREOF SHALL EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OF SET OFF, BANKER’S LIEN, OR THE LIKE AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF ANY BORROWER HELD OR MAINTAINED BY SUCH LENDER WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 

SECTION 9.10 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION; CONSENT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS.

SECTION 9.12 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.13 Confidentiality. 

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that (i) from time to time financial advisory, investment banking and other services may be offered or
provided to it (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by each Lender or by one or more subsidiaries of such Lender and (ii) information delivered to each Lender by the Loan Parties may be provided to each such subsidiary and
affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of Section 9.13(b) as if it were a Lender under this Agreement. 

  
 -134- 








 (b) Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders severally agrees to
maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, advisors, managers and agents, including accountants, legal counsel
and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (ii) to the extent
requested or required by any regulatory authority or by the NAIC, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vi) to any nationally recognized rating agency or service (including Moody’s Investor Services, Inc., Standard and Poor’s Ratings Group and Fitch Ratings Ltd.) that
requires access to information about a Lender’s (or a potential Lender’s) investment portfolio in connection with ratings to be issued with respect to such Lender (or potential Lender) or with respect to an Approved Fund,
(vii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially similar to those set forth in this Section, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement, (B) any investor or prospective investor in an Approved Fund and any trustee, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in an Approved Fund or (C) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its

than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (B) becomes available to any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers. For the purposes of this Section 9.13,
“Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to
disclosure by the Borrowers. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.13 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same
degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Agent or Lender may issue and disseminate to the public general information
describing this credit facility, including the names and addresses of the Borrowers and a general description of the Borrowers’ businesses, and may (so long as the Administrative Borrower has previously reviewed and approved the form of such
advertisement or promotional materials) use Borrowers’ names in published advertising and other promotional materials. The obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders under this Section 9.13 shall
terminate upon the termination of the Commitments and the payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations. 

SECTION 9.14 Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and
not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any
margin stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrowers in violation of
any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or regulation.

Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses of the
Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

 SECTION 9.17
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 “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with
applicable 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 9.17 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but
not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

SECTION 9.18 Administrative Borrower; Joint and Several Liability. 

(a) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Independence Contract Drilling, Inc. as the borrowing agent and
attorney-in-fact for all Borrowers (the “Administrative Borrower”) which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the
Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative Borrower. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and
authorizes the Administrative Borrower (i) to provide the Agents, Issuing Bank and Lenders with all notices with respect to Borrowings and Letters of Credit obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under
this Agreement and (ii) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Borrowings and Letters of Credit and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the
purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Funding Accounts, Collection Account, any account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement and Collateral of Borrowers in a combined fashion, as more fully set forth herein, is done
solely as an accommodation to Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Borrowers in the most efficient and economical 

  
 -136- 








 
manner and at their request, and that no Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender shall incur any liability to any Borrower as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or
indirectly, from the handling of the Funding Accounts, Collection Account, any account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued
successful performance of the integrated group. To induce the Agents, Issuing Bank and Lenders to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, Issuing Bank and Lender and hold it
harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against such Lender by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (a) the handling of the Funding Accounts,
Collection Account, any account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement and Collateral of Borrowers as herein provided, (b) such Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower, or (c) any other
action taken by the Agent, Issuing Bank or Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, except that Borrowers will have no liability under this Section 9.18 with respect to any liability that has been finally determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such indemnified party. 
 (b)
Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references to “Borrower” or “Borrowers” herein shall refer to and include each of the Borrowers separately and all representations contained herein shall be deemed to be
separately made by each of them, and each of the covenants, agreements and obligations set forth herein shall be deemed to be the joint and several covenants, agreements and obligations of them. Any notice, request, consent, report or other
information or agreement delivered to any Agent or Lender by the Borrowers shall be deemed to be ratified by, consented to and also delivered by the other Borrowers. Each Borrower recognizes and agrees that each covenant and agreement of
“Borrower” or “Borrowers” under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall create a joint and several obligation of the Borrowers, which may be enforced against Borrowers, jointly or against each of the Borrowers
separately. 
 (c) All Loans to the Borrowers, upon funding, shall be deemed to be jointly funded to and received by the Borrowers. Each
Borrower jointly and severally agrees to pay, and shall be jointly and severally liable under this Agreement for, all Obligations of the Borrowers, regardless of the manner or amount in which proceeds of such Loans are used, allocated, shared, or
disbursed by or among the Borrowers themselves, or the manner in which an Agent and/or any Lender accounts for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower shall be liable for all amounts due to an Agent and/or
any Lender under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder or the amount of such Loans and extensions of credit received or the manner in which such Agent and/or such Lender accounts
for such Loans or other extensions of credit on its books and records. Each Borrower’s Obligations with respect to Loans and other extensions of credit made to it, and such Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and
several liability of such Borrower hereunder, with respect to Loans made to the other Borrowers hereunder, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such Obligations of the Borrowers shall be primary obligations of such Borrower. The
Borrowers acknowledge and expressly agree with the Agents, the Issuing Bank and each Lender that the joint and several liability of each 

  
 -137- 








 Borrower is required solely as a condition to, and is given solely as inducement for and in consideration of,
credit or accommodations extended or to be extended under the Loan Documents to any or all of the other Borrowers. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement and as an obligor under the Collateral Documents shall be separate and distinct
obligations. Upon any Event of Default, the Agents may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower
or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Agents shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of
the Obligations. 
 (d) With respect to any Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the
Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans or other extensions of credit made to any of the other Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, the Commitments and this Agreement shall
have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which an Agent and/or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any
benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to an Agent and/or any Lender to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to an Agent and/or any Lender. 

(e) Subject to Section 9.18(d), to the extent that any Borrower shall be required to pay a portion of the Obligations which shall
exceed the amount of Loans other extensions of credit received by such Borrower and all interest, costs, fees and expenses attributable to such Loans or other extensions of credit, then such Borrower shall be reimbursed by the other Borrowers for
the amount of such excess. This Section 9.18(e) is intended only to define the relative rights of Borrowers, and nothing set forth in this Section 9.18(e) is intended or shall impair the obligations of each Borrower, jointly
and severally, to pay to Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and Lenders the Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
Section 9.18(e) or any other provisions of this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the liability incurred by each Borrower in respect of the Obligations of the other Borrowers (and any Lien granted by each Borrower to
secure such Obligations), not constitute a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable law of any state or other governmental unit (“Fraudulent Conveyance”). Consequently, each Borrower, each
Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender hereby agree that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the incurrence of liability by any Borrower in respect of the Obligations of any other Borrower (or any Liens granted by such Borrower to
secure such Obligations) would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, such liability (and such Liens) shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause the same to constitute a
Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly, nunc pro tunc. 

  
 -138- 








 (f) Each Borrower’s obligation to pay and perform the Obligations shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement,
or any term or provision therein, as to any other Borrower, or (ii) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
 SECTION 9.19 Subordination of
Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Borrower hereby agrees that any Indebtedness (along with any Lien, whether now or hereafter arising, purporting to secure such Indebtedness) of any other Borrower or Loan Party now or hereafter owing to such
Borrower, whether heretofore, now or hereafter created (the “Borrower Subordinated Debt”), is hereby subordinated to all of the Obligations and that, except as permitted under Section 6.10, the Borrower Subordinated Debt
shall not be paid in whole or in part until the Obligations have been paid in full and this Agreement is terminated and of no further force or effect. No Borrower shall accept any payment of or on account of any Borrower Subordinated Debt at any
time in contravention of the foregoing. Each payment on the Borrower Subordinated Debt received in violation of any of the provisions hereof shall be deemed to have been received by such Borrower as trustee for the Secured Parties and shall be paid
over to the Administrative Agent immediately on account of the Obligations, but without otherwise affecting in any manner such Borrower’s liability hereunder. Each Borrower agrees to file all claims against the Borrower or Loan Party from whom
the Borrower Subordinated Debt is owing in any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law in respect of any Borrower Subordinated Debt, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to all of such
Borrower’s rights thereunder. If for any reason a Borrower fails to file such claim at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the last date on which such claim should be filed, such Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative
Agent as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to act as attorney-in-fact in such Borrower’s name to file such claim or, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, to assign such claim to
and cause proof of claim to be filed in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the Person or Persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to the Administrative
Agent the full amount payable on the claim in the proceeding, and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, each Borrower hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent all of such Borrower’s rights to any payments or distributions to which
such Borrower otherwise would be entitled. If the amount so paid is greater than such Borrower’s liability hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall pay the excess amount to the party entitled thereto. In addition, each Borrower hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its attorney-in-fact to exercise all of such Borrower’s voting rights in connection with any bankruptcy proceeding or any plan for the reorganization of the Borrower or Loan Party from whom the
Borrower Subordinated Debt is owing.

 Schedule 5.14 

Post-Closing Matters 
 The following are
the post-closing matters referenced in Section 5.14. The Loan Parties shall cause each requirement set forth blow to be satisfied in full, on or before the date specified for such requirement (or within such longer period as
Administrative Agent may agree at its sole option), time being of the essence, and to be satisfactory, in form and substance, as applicable, to Administrative Agent. The failure to satisfy any such requirement on or before the date when due (or
within such longer period as Administrative Agent may agree at its sole option) shall be an Event of Default, except as otherwise agreed to by Administrative Agent at its sole option. 

 

	 	1.	The Loan Parties shall (a) direct their Account Debtors to, from and after the Effective Date, remit all payments to a Payment Account in lieu of a Transition Account, (b) cause any monies on deposit in any
Transition Account to be used in accordance with this Agreement, and (c) on a daily basis, cause the funds in any Transition Account in excess of the Transition Account Limit (as defined below) to be transferred into a deposit account that is
subject to a Blocked Account Agreement. 

  

	 	2.	At all times from and after the earlier of (a) the date of the making of the initial Loan or, if earlier, the issuance of the initial Letter of Credit, and (b) May 31, 2013, the Loan Parties shall cause
the Transition Accounts to have an aggregate balance that is less than or equal to the lesser of (i) $500,000 and (ii) the aggregate amount of the outstanding checks or drafts that, as of any date of determination, can be drawn upon any
Transition Account (such lesser amount being the “Transition Account Limit”); provided, however, that funds in excess of the Transition Account Limit may be held in a Transition Account for a period of one
(1) Business Day so long as such funds (x) represent a deposit made to such Transition Account within such Business Day and (y) are remitted to a deposit account that is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement in accordance with
Section 1 of this Schedule 5.14. For the avoidance of doubt, it is a condition precedent to the making of any Loan, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit, during the period from the Effective Date until the date that the
Transition Accounts are closed, that the Loan Parties have provided evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that the Loan Parties are in compliance with this Section 2 of Schedule 5.14. 


 

	 	3.	On or prior to the date of the making of the initial Loan or, if earlier, the issuance of the initial Letter of Credit (and as a condition precedent to the making of such initial Loan and the issuance of such initial
Letter of Credit), the Loan Parties shall provide evidence acceptable to Administrative Agent that the operating account held by the Administrative Borrower at Compass Bank with account number 6710151065 has been established and that the
Administrative Borrower has the ability to initiate wire transfers and issue checks from such account. 









	 	4.	Not later than June 12, 2013, the Loan Parties shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a Collateral Access Agreement with respect to the following premises and related lease or license agreements, in each case in
form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and duly executed by the applicable landlord or licensor: 

  

	 	a.	Premises commonly known by the street address 7560 Breen Drive, Houston, Texas 77060, leased by ICD pursuant to that certain Lease Agreement, dated January 1, 2013, between Donald Wright and ICD; and


  

	 	b.	Premises commonly known by the street address 314 South East Ave. “L”, Seminole, Texas 79360, licensed by ICD pursuant to that certain Pipe Storage Agreement, dated in December 2012, between Jimmy Hart and
ICD. 

  

	 	5.	Not later than June 30, 2013, the Loan Parties shall (a) cause the Transition Accounts to be closed and (b) cause the remaining balance in each Transition Account to be transferred into a deposit account
that is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement, and, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b), provide evidence acceptable to Administrative Agent demonstrating the satisfaction of such requirement. 


 

	 	6.	The Loan Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent, not later than June 12, 2013, an acknowledgement and agreement to that certain Collateral Assignment of
Contribution Documents, dated as of the Effective Date, by the Administrative Borrower in favor of the Collateral Agent, which acknowledgement and agreement shall be (i) executed by each of Global Energy Services Operating, LLC, Independence
Contract Drilling, LLC and Southwest Oilfield Products, Inc. and (ii) in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver such acknowledgement shall not
constitute an Event of Default so long as commercially reasonable efforts were utilized in attempting to obtain such acknowledgement. 

  

	 	7.	The Loan Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause to be delivered to the Collateral Agent, not later than June 12, 2013, evidence in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Collateral Agent that the Loan Parties have submitted to the United States Patent and Trademark Office, for recording in the applicable records of such office, an assignment of the trademark “Quicksilver Drilling System”, Serial Number
78/569,368, Registration Number 3097651, from GES Global Energy Services, Inc. to ICD, and (ii) if such evidence is delivered, then, within ten (10) Business Days after receiving a recordation return or other indication that such
assignment has been recorded in the applicable records of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a trademark security agreement covering such trademark, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to satisfy the requirements described in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) shall not constitute an Event of Default so long as commercially reasonable
efforts were utilized in attempting to satisfy such requirements.
