 AMENDMENT NO. 1 AND LIMITED WAIVER TO 

AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 This AMENDMENT NO. 1 AND LIMITED WAIVER TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), dated as of May 9, 2013, is entered into by and among ENCORE CAPITAL GROUP, INC.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Guarantors indentified on the signature pages hereto, certain Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below)) party hereto, and SUNTRUST BANK, as Administrative Agent (in
such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), Collateral Agent, Swingline Lender and Issuing Lender. 
 RECITALS

 WHEREAS, the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of November 5, 2012 (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Lenders have extended revolving
credit and term loan facilities to the Borrower; and 
 WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested certain
amendments to the Credit Agreement set forth herein, and the Administrative Agent and each of the undersigned Lenders (the “Consenting Lenders”) have agreed to such requests, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment;

 WHEREAS, Sections 5.10 and 5.11 of the Credit Agreement require the Loan Parties to deliver certain
collateral documents with respect to new Subsidiaries formed or acquired after the Closing Date; and 

WHEREAS, Midland Credit Management, Inc., a Loan Party, has established two Immaterial Subsidiaries previously
identified to the Administrative Agent (each, a “New Subsidiary” and collectively, the “New Subsidiaries”) and, in each case, has not been able to complete the requirements of Sections 5.10 and 5.11 of the Credit
Agreement regarding the delivery of such collateral documents resulting in an Event of Default (collectively, the “Specified Events of Default”). 

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties
hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 1.        Defined
Terms.    Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment. 

2.        Amendments to Credit Agreement and Guaranty
Agreement.    Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and with effect from and after the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) the Credit Agreement (including Exhibits and Schedules thereto (after giving effect to
clause (b) below)) shall be amended so that, after giving effect to all such amendments, it reads in its entirety as set forth in Exhibit A as attached hereto. The parties hereto (including the Guarantors) further agree that the
defined term “Guaranteed Obligations” in the Guaranty Agreement shall be deemed to exclude any and all “Excluded Swap Obligations” (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment). 

3.        Waiver.    Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein and in reliance on the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties made herein, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders signatory hereto hereby (i) waive the Specified Events of Default, and (ii) consent
to the delivery of the relevant collateral documents with respect to each New Subsidiary on or before the date that is forty-five (45) days following the Amendment Effective Date (which time period may be extended by the Collateral Agent in its
reasonable discretion). 







 The waiver set forth in this Section 3 is a one time waiver and is limited to
the extent specifically set forth above and no other terms, covenants or provisions of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document are intended to be affected hereby all of which remain in full force and effect. The Loan Parties acknowledge and
agree that the waiver contained above in this Section 3 shall not waive (or be deemed to be or constitute a waiver of) any other covenant, term or provision in the Credit Agreement or hinder, restrict or otherwise modify the rights and
remedies of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of any other present or future Default or Event of Default (whether or not related to the Specified Events of Default) under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document. 
 4.        Representations and
Warranties.    The Borrowers and the Guarantors hereby represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as follows: 
 (a)        Except for the Specified Events of Default, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof, nor will any Default or
Event of Default exist immediately after giving effect to this Amendment. 

(b)        The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this
Amendment are within such Loan Party’s organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational, and if required, shareholder, partner or member, action. This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each
Loan Party. Each of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby, constitute the valid and binding obligations of the Loan Parties, enforceable against them in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited by
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity. 

(c)        The execution, delivery and performance by the Loan Parties of this
Amendment (i) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any action by, any Governmental Authority, except those as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) will not violate any
organizational documents of, or any law applicable to, any Loan Party or any judgment, order or ruling of any Governmental Authority, (iii) will not violate or result in a default under the Credit Agreement, the Prudential Senior Secured Note
Agreement, any Material Indebtedness Agreement, any other material agreement or other material instrument binding on any Loan Party or any of their assets or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party,
(iv) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of any Loan Party, except Liens (if any) created under the Loan Documents and/or (v) will not result in a material limitation on any licenses, permits or other
governmental approvals applicable to the business, operations or properties of the Loan Parties. 

(d)       The execution, delivery, performance and effectiveness of this Amendment
will not: (i) impair the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to any Loan Document, and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all of the applicable Obligations, whether
heretofore or hereafter incurred and (ii) require that any new filings be made or other action taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens.

provisions of the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document are and shall remain in full force and effect and all references in any Loan Document to the “Credit Agreement” shall henceforth refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by
this Amendment. Nothing in this Amendment or in any of the transactions contemplated hereby is intended, or shall be construed, to constitute a novation or an accord and satisfaction of any of the Obligations of the Borrower under the Credit
Agreement or to modify, affect or impair the perfection, priority or continuation of the security interests in, security titles to or other Liens on any Collateral for the Obligations. 

(b)        This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the

OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT (AS AMENDED HEREBY) RELATING TO GOVERNING LAW, JURISIDICTION AND WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY, THE PROVISIONS OF WHICH ARE BY THIS REFERENCE INCORPORATED HEREIN IN FULL. 

(d)       This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Amendment and the other Loan Documents 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 

  
 - 4 -









 
in Section 4, this Amendment shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts
hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties required to be a party hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment. This Amendment may not be amended except in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement. 

(e)        If any provision of this Amendment or the other Loan Documents is held
to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor
in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of compliance with any term or condition contained in the
Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or constitute a course of conduct or dealing among the parties. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents. 

(f)        The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for
all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment and the other agreements and documents
executed and delivered in connection herewith. 
 (g)        In
consideration of the amendments contained herein, each of the Loan Parties hereby waives and releases each of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent from any and all claims and defenses, known or unknown as of the date
hereof, with respect to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. 
 (h)       This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” under and as defined in the Credit Agreement.

difference between (x) the lesser of (1) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (2) the Borrowing Base in effect at such time minus (y) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders; provided, that the
Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 (b)      The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or
telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Swingline Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4 attached hereto (“Notice of Swingline Borrowing”) prior to 10:00 a.m. on the requested date of each
Swingline Borrowing. Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the principal amount of such Swingline Loan, (ii) the date of such Swingline Loan (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) the
account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of such Swingline Loan should be credited. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of each Notice of Swingline Borrowing. Each Swingline Loan shall accrue interest at the Base
Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The aggregate principal amount of each Swingline Loan shall be not less than $100,000 or a larger multiple of $50,000, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower. The Swingline
Lender will make the proceeds of each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in Dollars in immediately available funds at the account specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Swingline Borrowing not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested date of such Swingline Loan. 
 (c)      The Swingline Lender, at any
time and from time to time in its sole discretion, may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), and shall, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes
and directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf) on the fifth (5th) 

  
 40 









 
Business Day following each Swingline Borrowing give a Notice of Revolving Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) to make Base Rate Loans in
an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of any Swingline Loan. Each Lender will make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in accordance
with Section 2.7, which will be used solely for the repayment of such Swingline Loan. 

(d)      If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to
its Pro Rata Share thereof on the date that such Base Rate Borrowing should have occurred. On the date of such required purchase, each Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participating interest to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender. 
 (e)      Each
Lender’s obligation to make a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.4(c) or to purchase the participating interests pursuant to Section 2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including without limitation (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of any event or condition which has had or could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for
each day from the date of demand thereof (i) at the Federal Funds Rate until the second Business Day after such demand and (ii) at the Base Rate at all times thereafter. Until such time as such Lender makes its required payment, the
Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of the unpaid participation for all purposes of the Loan Documents. In addition, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of
principal and interest on its Loans and any other amounts due to it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund the amount of such Lender’s participation interest in such Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to fund pursuant to this
Section 2.4, until such amount has been purchased in full. 

(f)      If the Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall have occurred in respect of
any tranche of Revolving Commitments at a time when another tranche of Revolving Commitments is in effect with a longer Revolving Commitment Termination Date as a result of an Extension, then on the earlier occurring Revolving Commitment Termination
Date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on such date. 

Section 2.5.         Term Loan Commitments. 

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make (or be deemed to make) on the
Closing Date (i) a single term loan to the Borrower (the 

  
 41 









 
“Term Loan A”) in a principal amount equal to the Term Loan A Commitment of such Lender and (ii) subject to Section 2.24(e), a single term loan to the Borrower (the
“Term Loan A-1”) in a principal amount equal to the Term Loan A-1 Commitment of such Lender; provided, that if for any reason the full amount of any such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment is not fully drawn on the Closing
Date, the undrawn portion thereof shall automatically be cancelled. The Term Loans may be, from time to time, Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans or a combination thereof; provided, that on the Closing Date all Term Loans shall be Base Rate
Loans. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Borrower and the satisfaction of all conditions precedent pursuant to Section 3.1 shall be deemed to constitute the Borrower’s request to borrow the Term Loans on the
Closing Date. 
 Section 2.6.         Funding of
Borrowings. 
 (a)      Each Lender will make available each Loan to be
made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer in immediately available funds by 11:00 a.m. to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office; provided, that the Swingline Loans will be made as set forth in
Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts that it receives, in like funds by the close of business on such proposed date, to an account maintained by the
Borrower with the Administrative Agent or at the Borrower’s option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amounts to an account designated by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. 

(b)      Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to
5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the date of a Borrowing in which such Lender is to participate 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 amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance on such assumption, may make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such
corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with
interest at the Federal Funds Rate until the second Business Day after such demand and thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest at the rate specified for such Borrowing. Nothing in this subsection shall
be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 

(c)      All Revolving Borrowings shall be made by the Lenders on the basis of their
respective Pro Rata Shares. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligations hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make its Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any
other Lender to make its Loans hereunder. 

  
 42 










Section 2.7.         Interest Elections. 

(a)      Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice
of Borrowing, and in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing into 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 2.7. The Borrower 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 Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall NOT apply to Swingline
Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b)      To make an
election pursuant to this Section 2.7, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.7 attached
hereto (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) that is to be converted or continued, as the case may be, (x) prior to 10:00 a.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of a conversion into a Base Rate Borrowing
and (y) prior to 11:00 a.m. three (3) Business Days prior to a continuation of or conversion into a Eurodollar Borrowing. Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the Borrowing to which
such Notice of Conversion/Continuation applies and if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof that are to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be
specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Notice of Conversion/Continuation, which shall be a Business
Day, (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period applicable thereto after giving effect to such
election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period”. If any such Notice of Conversion/Continuation requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, the Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month. The principal amount of any resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the minimum borrowing amount for Eurodollar Borrowings and Base Rate Borrowings set forth in Section 2.3. 

(c)      If, on the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any Eurodollar
Borrowing, the Borrower shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/ Continuation, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Borrowing to a Base Rate Borrowing. No
Borrowing may be converted into, or continued as, a Eurodollar Borrowing if a Default or an Event of Default exists, unless the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall have otherwise consented in writing. No conversion of any Eurodollar
Loans shall be permitted except on the last day of the Interest Period in respect thereof. 

(d)      Upon receipt of any Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

  
 43 










Section 2.8.         Optional Reduction and Termination of
Commitments. 
 (a)      Unless previously terminated, all Revolving
Commitments, Swingline Commitments and LC Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. The Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Closing Date upon the making of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.6.

 (b)      Upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice
(or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable; provided that any notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower under this Section 2.8 may state that such
notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked or delayed by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not
satisfied), the Borrower may reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in part or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in whole; provided, that (i) any partial reduction shall apply to reduce proportionately and permanently the
Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be in an amount of at least $5,000,000 and any larger multiple of $1,000,000, and (iii) no such reduction shall be permitted
which would reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitment to an amount less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure. Any such reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment below the principal amount of the Swingline Commitment or the LC
Commitment shall result in a dollar-for-dollar reduction (rounded to the next lowest integral multiple of $100,000) in the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment. Any reduction or termination of Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section
shall not be subject to reinstatement (other than increases pursuant to Section 2.24(a). The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders upon receipt of any written request by the Borrower to reduce or terminate the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section. 
 (c)      The Borrower may
terminate the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in
such event the provisions of Section 2.23(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or
other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank, the Swingline Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

Section 2.9.         Repayment of Loans. 

(a)      The outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable
(together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. 

(b)      The principal amount of each Swingline Borrowing shall be due and payable
(together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the earlier of (i) the fifth Business Day following each Swingline Borrowing and (ii) the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. 

  
 44 









 (c)      The Borrower unconditionally
promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in consecutive quarterly installments on the last Business Day of
each of March, June, September and December commencing on December 31, 2012 in the principal amount equal to the aggregate Term Loans outstanding immediately after closing on the Closing Date (subject to Section 2.24(e); it being
understood that if any portion of the Term Loan A-1 if funded after the Closing Date, such portion of the Term Loan A-1 funded after the Closing Date shall nonetheless be included for purposes of determining the amortization payment schedule under
this clause (c)) multiplied by (i) 1.25%, for the first eight (8) such quarterly installments, (ii) 1.875%, for the next four (4) quarterly installments thereafter and (iii) 2.5%, for the next eight
(8) quarterly installments thereafter; provided, that, to the extent not previously paid, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of (x) the Term Loan A-1 shall be due and payable on the Term Loan A-1 Maturity Date and (y) the
Term Loan A shall be due and payable on the Term Loan A Maturity Date; provided, further, in the event the entire outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan A-1 is repaid on the Term Loan A-1 Maturity Date, the principal payments
required to be made under clause (iii) immediately above will be multiplied by the aggregate Term Loan A outstanding immediately after closing on the Closing Date rather than the aggregate Term Loans. 

(d)      Not later than six (6) months prior to the initial Term Loan A-1 Maturity
Date, any Lender holding all or any portion of Term Loan A-1 shall provide written notice to the Borrower of its election whether or not to extend the Term Loan A-1 Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.25 for a period of two
(2) years (it being agreed that any Extension with respect to Term Loan A-1 shall be for a minimum of two (2) years). 
 Section 2.10.         Evidence of Indebtedness. 
 (a)      Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice appropriate records evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each
Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall maintain appropriate records in which shall be
recorded (i) the Revolving Commitment and Term Loan Commitment of each Lender, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder by each Lender, the Class and Type thereof and, with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (iii) the date of each continuation thereof pursuant to Section 2.8, (iv) the date of each conversion of all or a portion thereof to another Type pursuant to Section 2.8, (v) the date and amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of such Loans and (vi) both the date and amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower
in respect of the Loans and each Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. The entries made in such records shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, that the
failure or delay of any Lender or the Administrative Agent in maintaining or making entries into any such record or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued
interest) of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

  
 45 









 (b)      At the request of any Lender at any
time, the Borrower agrees that it will execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Credit Note, a Term Note A, a Term Note A-1 and/or a Swingline Note, payable to the order of such Lender. 

Section 2.11.         Optional Prepayments. 

The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part,
without premium or penalty, by giving irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent no later than (i) in the case of prepayment of any Eurodollar Borrowing, 11:00 a.m. not less than
three (3) Business Days prior to any such prepayment, (ii) in the case of any prepayment of any Base Rate Borrowing, not less than one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, and (iii) in the case of Swingline Borrowings,
prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the proposed date of such prepayment and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid. Upon receipt of any such
notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any such prepayment. If such notice is given, the aggregate amount specified in such notice shall be due
and payable on the date designated in such notice, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount so prepaid in accordance with Section 2.14(e); provided, that if a Eurodollar Borrowing is prepaid on a date other than
the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay all amounts required pursuant to Section 2.19. Each partial prepayment of any Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be in an amount that would be
permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type pursuant to Section 2.2 or in the case of a Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.4. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the
Loans comprising such Borrowing; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any prepayment of any Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made on a pro rata basis to each of Term Loan A and Term Loan
A-1 (with the application of such prepayment to be, as to each of Term Loan A and Term Loan A-1, to principal installments thereof in inverse order of maturity). 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any notice of prepayment delivered by the Borrower under
this Section 2.11 may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked or delayed by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 

Section 2.12.         Mandatory Prepayments. 

(a)      Within 10 Business Days after the consummation of any sale or other disposition
of Property (including the sale or other disposition of Receivables) by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary if the aggregate fair market value of the consideration received by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries for such sale or other
disposition, together with the aggregate fair market value of the consideration received by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries for all other such sales or other dispositions consummated during the period of twelve consecutive months
immediately preceding the consummation of such sale or other disposition, exceeds $25,000,000, the Borrower shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the 

  
 46 









 
Administrative Agent and the Lenders (notifying the Administrative Agent and the Lenders thereof and certifying the amount of Net Cash Proceeds received from such sales or other dispositions
during such period). Unless within 5 Business Days after receipt of such Officer’s Certificate the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Required Lenders, shall have notified the Borrower of the Required Lenders’ election to forego
prepayment, then on the date that is 7 Business Days after the date on which the Borrower shall have delivered such Officer’s Certificate to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the Borrower shall make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount
equal to the Ratable Share of the amount of Net Cash Proceeds certified in such Officer’s Certificate (or such lesser principal amount as shall then be outstanding), at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) up to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such sales or other dispositions with respect to which the Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent written notice (set forth in the applicable Officer’s Certificate delivered pursuant
to the first sentence of this clause (a)) of its intention to repair or replace the Property subject to any such sale or other disposition or invest such Net Cash Proceeds in the purchase of Property (other than securities, unless those
securities represent equity interests in an entity that becomes a Guarantor or an Unrestricted Subsidiary permitted hereunder (and provided that if such Guarantor or Unrestricted Subsidiary is a newly formed Person, such Person shall promptly use
the portion of the Net Cash Proceeds received by it for the sale of its equity interests in order to purchase Property to be used by it in its business)) to be used by one or more of the Borrower or the Guarantors in their businesses (such repair,
replacement or investment referred to as a “Reinvestment”) within six (6) months following such sale or other disposition, shall not be subject to the provisions of the first two sentences of this clause (a) unless
and to the extent that such applicable period shall have expired without such repair, replacement or investment having been made, and (ii) only the Net Cash Proceeds from sales or other dispositions of Property (including the sale or other
disposition of Receivables) with a fair market value of the consideration received therefor in excess of $25,000,000 (above and beyond the fair market value of the consideration of the dispositions of the Property with respect to which the Net Cash
Proceeds shall have been subject to Reinvestment) shall be subject to the provisions of the first two sentences of this clause (a). 
 (b)      Any prepayments made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.12(a) above shall be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows: first to repay
Term Loans on a pro rata basis as to each of Term Loan A, Term Loan A-1 and, unless otherwise provided in the Incremental Facility Amendment applicable to the related Incremental Term Loan, each Incremental Term Loan (with the application of such
prepayment to be, as to each of Term Loan A, Term Loan A-1 and Incremental Term Loan, to the remaining scheduled principal installments owing in respect of such Term Loan under Section 2.9(c) (or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, as
set forth in the Incremental Facility Amendment applicable to the related Incremental Term Loan) on a pro rata basis (including the final installment due and payable on each such Term Loan)), second, to repay outstanding Swingline Loans and
third to repay outstanding Revolving Loans. All prepayments in respect of Revolving Loans required under clause (b) shall be accompanied by a concurrent, automatic, irrevocable reduction and partial termination of the Revolving
Commitments in an amount equal to such required prepayment, with such reduction and partial termination allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Share. 

  
 47 









 (c)      If at any time the Revolving Credit
Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the lesser of (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (ii) the Borrowing Base, in each case, then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately repay Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such excess (or, if
such excess exceeds $10,000,000, the Ratable Share of such excess), together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such excess amount and any amounts due under Section 2.20. Each prepayment shall be applied first to the Base Rate Loans
to the full extent thereof, and next to Eurodollar Loans to the full extent thereof. If such excess (or if the excess is greater than $10,000,000, the Ratable Share of such excess) is greater than the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Loans, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize its reimbursement obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit by depositing cash collateral in an amount equal to such excess (or, if the excess is greater than $10,000,000, the Ratable Share of the
remaining excess) plus any accrued and unpaid fees thereon into a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “LC Collateral Account”) at the Payment Office, in the name of the
Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which the Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 8.2. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns
and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, a Lien in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the
LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of SunTrust Bank
having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. The LC Collateral Account shall be administered in accordance with Section 2.22(g) hereof. If, after the date that the Borrower Cash Collateralizes its reimbursement obligations pursuant to this
Section, (x) the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders is less than the lesser of the (i) Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (ii) the Borrowing Base, in each case, then in effect, for a period of at least ten (10) consecutive
Business Days, and (y) no Default or Event of Default then exists, the funds in the LC Collateral Account shall be released by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. 

Section 2.13.         Interest on Loans. 

(a)      The Borrower shall pay interest on each Base Rate Loan at the Base Rate in effect
from time to time and on each Eurodollar Loan at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the applicable Interest Period in effect for such Loan, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. 

(b)      The Borrower shall pay interest on each Swingline Loan at the Base Rate
plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. 

(c)      Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, at the option of the Required Lenders, and after acceleration (in which case, such increase shall be automatic), the Borrower shall pay interest (“Default Interest”) with respect to all
Eurodollar Loans at the rate per annum equal to 2.0% above the otherwise applicable interest rate for such Eurodollar Loans for the then-current Interest Period until the last day of such Interest Period, and thereafter, and with respect to all Base
Rate Loans and all other Obligations hereunder (other than Loans), at the rate per annum equal to 2.0% above the otherwise applicable interest rate for Base Rate Loans. 

  
 48 









 (d)      Interest on the principal amount of
all Loans shall accrue from and including the date such Loans are made to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof. Interest on all outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June,
September and December and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, the Term Loan A Maturity Date or the Term Loan A-1 Maturity Date, as the case may be. Interest on all outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be payable on the last day of each
Interest Period applicable thereto, and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans having an Interest Period in excess of three months or 90 days, respectively, on each day which occurs every three months or 90 days, as the case may be, after the initial
date of such Interest Period, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date the Term Loan A Maturity Date or the Term Loan A-1 Maturity Date, as the case may be. Interest on each Swingline Loan shall be payable on the maturity date of such Loan,
which shall be the fifth Business Day following such Swingline Borrowing, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date. Interest on any Loan which is converted into a Loan of another Type or which is repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the
date of such conversion or on the date of any such repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid) thereof. All Default Interest shall be payable on demand. 

(e)      The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the
Loans hereunder and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of such rate in writing (or by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing). Any such determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 Section 2.14.         Fees. 

(a)      The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in
the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

(b)      The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Percentage per annum (determined daily in accordance with Schedule I-A) on the daily amount of the unused Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the Availability Period. For
purposes of computing commitment fees with respect to the Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure, but not Swingline Exposure, of such
Lender. 
 (c)      The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Lender, a letter of credit fee with respect to its participation in each Letter of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans then in effect on the average daily
amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to such Letter of Credit during the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to but excluding the date on which such Letter of Credit expires or is drawn in full
(including without limitation any LC Exposure that remains outstanding after the Revolving Commitment Termination Date) and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on
the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the Availability Period (or until the date that such Letter of Credit is irrevocably cancelled,

whichever is later), as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Required Lenders elect to increase the interest rate on the Loans to the Default Interest pursuant to Section 2.13(c), the rate per annum used to calculate the letter of credit fee pursuant to
clause (i) above shall automatically be increased by an additional 2% per annum. 

(d)      The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of
each Lender, the upfront fee previously agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, if any, which shall be due and payable on the Closing Date. 
 (e)      Accrued fees under paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December,
commencing on December 31, 2012 and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date (and if later, the date the Loans and LC Exposure shall be repaid in their entirety); provided further, that any such fees accruing after the
Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall be payable on demand. 

Section 2.15.         Computation of Interest and Fees.

 Interest hereunder based on the Administrative Agent’s prime lending rate shall be computed on the
basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year
of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable (to the extent computed on the basis of days elapsed). Each determination by the
Administrative Agent of an interest amount or fee hereunder shall be made in good faith and, except for manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 

Section 2.16.         Inability to Determine Interest Rates.

 If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, 

(i)        the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which
determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank market, adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or 

(ii)       the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their (or its, as the case may be) Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period, 

the Administrative Agent shall give written notice (or telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the
Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. Until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar


  
 50 









 
Revolving Loans or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended and (ii) all such affected Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans on the
last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto unless the Borrower prepays such Loans in accordance with this Agreement. Unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before the date of any
Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing for which a Notice of Revolving Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation has previously been given that it elects not to borrow on such date, then such Revolving Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.

 Section 2.17.         Illegality.

 If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain or fund any
Eurodollar Loan and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the other Lenders, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Revolving Loans, or to continue or convert outstanding Loans as or into Eurodollar Loans, shall be suspended. In the
case of the making of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Lender’s Revolving Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan as part of the same Revolving Borrowing for the same Interest Period and if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding,
such Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan either (i) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loan to such date or (ii) immediately
if such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loan to such date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the affected Lender shall, prior to giving such notice to the Administrative Agent, designate a different
Applicable Lending Office if such designation would avoid the need for giving such notice and if such designation would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in the good faith exercise of its discretion. 

Section 2.18.         Increased Costs. 

 (a)      If any Change in Law shall: 

(i)        impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or
the Issuing Bank; or 
 (ii)       subject any Recipient to
any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit,
commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 
 (iii)      impose on any Lender or on the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or any
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or any participation therein; 

  
 51 









 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such
other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or
maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether
of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Issuing Bank or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b)      If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of
such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the
Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank,
as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c)      A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower
shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d)      Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall not constitute a waiver of such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.18 for any increased cost or
reduction in respect of a period occurring more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower of such intention to claim compensation therefor unless the circumstances giving rise to such
increased cost or reduction became applicable retroactively, in which case no such time limitation shall apply so long as such Lender or the Issuing Bank requests compensation within six (6) months from the date such circumstances became
applicable. 

  
 52 










Section 2.19.         Funding Indemnity. 

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of a Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion or continuation of a Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the failure by the Borrower to
borrow, prepay, convert or continue any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any applicable notice (regardless of whether such notice is withdrawn or revoked), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender, within five
(5) Business Days after written demand from such Lender, for any loss, cost or expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be
the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan if such event had not occurred at the Adjusted LIBO Rate applicable to such Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Loan) over (B) the amount of
interest that would accrue on the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan for the same period if the Adjusted LIBO Rate were set on the date such Eurodollar Loan was prepaid or converted or the date on which the Borrower failed to borrow, convert
or continue such Eurodollar Loan. A certificate as to any additional amount payable under this Section 2.19 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

 Section 2.20.         Taxes. 

(a)      For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing
Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 (b)      Any and
all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith
discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall
timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such
deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or
withholding been made. 
 (c)      The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(d)      The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment
to such Recipient and any 

  
 53 









 
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 (e)      Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative
Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.4(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any
Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes
were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each
Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any
amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (e). 

(f)      As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a
Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such
payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(g)      (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding
Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such
Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set
forth in clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

  
 54 









 (ii)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the
event that the Borrower is U.S. Person: 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed
originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or
prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

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

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

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest
under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (iv) to the
extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or
Exhibit F)-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender
are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall 

  
 55 









 
be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding
Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include
any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. 
 (h)      If any party
determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section), it shall
pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such
indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the
amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.20(h)(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.20(h) the
payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or
otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.20(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any
other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

  
 56 









 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or
becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

Section 2.21.         Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment;
Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a)      The Borrower shall make each payment
required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.18, Section 2.19 or Section 2.20, or otherwise) prior to 12:00
noon on the date when due, in immediately available funds, free and clear of any defenses, rights of set-off, counterclaim, or withholding or deduction of taxes. 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 the Payment Office, except payments to be made
directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Section 2.18, Section 2.19 and Section 2.20 and Section 10.3 shall be made directly to
the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative 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 made payable for the period of such extension. All payments
hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 
 (b)      If at any time insufficient funds
are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to the fees and reimbursable
expenses of the Administrative Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, (ii) second, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the
amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, (iii) third, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties, and (iv) fourth, towards payment of all other Obligations then due, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Obligations then due to
such parties. 
 (c)      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 or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued
interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (x) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations
in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal
of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; 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 

  
 57 









 
rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (1) any payment
made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (2) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall
apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of
set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

(d)      The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute amounts due hereunder to the
Lenders from the Borrower only after such amounts have been paid by the Borrower to, and receipt thereof has been confirmed by, the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 2.22.         Letters of Credit. 
 (a)      During the Availability Period, the Issuing Bank, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders pursuant to Section 2.22(e), agrees to issue, at
the request of the Borrower, Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; provided, that (i) each Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (A) the date one year after
the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (or in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (B) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination
Date; (ii) each Letter of Credit shall be in a stated amount of at least $100,000; and (iii) the Borrower may not request any Letter of Credit, if, after giving effect to such issuance (A) the aggregate LC Exposure would exceed the LC
Commitment or (B) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders would exceed the lesser of (i) the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and (ii) the Borrowing Base, in each case, then in effect. Each Lender shall be deemed to, and
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank without recourse a participation in each Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit (i) on the Closing Date with respect to all Existing Letters of Credit and (ii) on the date of issuance with respect to all other Letters of Credit. Each issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving
Commitment of each Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation. 

(b)      To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or any amendment, renewal or
extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall give the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of such issuance specifying the date
(which shall be a Business Day) such Letter of Credit is to be issued (or amended, extended or renewed, as the case may be), the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary
thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition to the satisfaction of the conditions in ARTICLE III, the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or any amendment
which increases the amount of such 

  
 58 









 
Letter of Credit) will be subject to the further conditions that such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and contain such terms as the Issuing Bank shall approve and that the Borrower shall
have executed and delivered any additional applications, agreements and instruments relating to such Letter of Credit as the Issuing Bank shall reasonably require; provided, that in the event of any conflict between such applications,
agreements or instruments and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. 

(c)      At least two Business Days prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the
Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received such notice and if not, the Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing
Bank has received notice from the Administrative Agent on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date the Issuing Bank is to issue the requested Letter of Credit (1) directing the Issuing Bank not to issue the Letter of Credit
because such issuance is not then permitted hereunder because of the limitations set forth in Section 3.2 or that one or more conditions specified in ARTICLE III are not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue such Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. 

(d)      The Issuing Bank shall examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for
payment under a Letter of Credit promptly following its receipt thereof. The Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make a LC Disbursement
thereunder; provided, that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to such LC Disbursement. The Borrower shall be
irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursements paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of such drawing, without presentment, demand or other formalities of any kind. Unless the Borrower shall have
notified the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately prior to the date on which such drawing is honored that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount of such drawing in
funds other than from the proceeds of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Revolving Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders to make a Base Rate Borrowing on the date on which such
drawing is honored in an exact amount due to the Issuing Bank; provided, that for purposes solely of such Borrowing, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 hereof shall not be applicable. The Administrative Agent shall
notify the Lenders of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.3, and each Lender shall make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank in
accordance with Section 2.7. The proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement. 

(e)      If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole
discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) shall be obligated to fund the participation that such Lender purchased pursuant to subsection
(a) in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such LC Disbursement on and as of the date which such Base Rate Borrowing 

  
 59 









 
should have occurred. Each Lender’s obligation to fund its participation shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation
(i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any other Person may have against the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default
or the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower or any other
Lender, (v) any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. On the date that such participation is required to be
funded, each Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank. Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Bank has received from any such
Lender the funds for its participation in a LC Disbursement, the Issuing Bank (or the Administrative Agent on its behalf) receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, will distribute to
such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment; provided, that if such payment is required to be returned for any reason to the Borrower or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or similar official in any bankruptcy proceeding, such
Lender will return to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank any portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to it. 

(f)       To the extent that any Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be
paid pursuant to paragraphs (d) or (e) of this Section on the due date therefor, such Lender shall pay interest to the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent) on such amount from such due date to the date such payment is made at a
rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate; provided, that if such Lender shall fail to make such payment to the Issuing Bank within three (3) Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Lender shall be
obligated to pay interest on such amount at the rate set forth in Section 2.14(d). 

(g)       If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day
that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding that its reimbursement obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit be Cash Collateralized pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit
in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid fees thereon;
provided, that such obligation to Cash Collateralize the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower with respect to Letters of Credit shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand
or notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 8.1. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the
payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Borrower agrees to execute any
documents and/or certificates to effectuate the intent of this paragraph. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the
Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest and profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative


  
 60 









 
Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it had not been reimbursed and to the extent so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of
the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, with the consent of the Required Lenders, be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
If the Borrower is required to Cash Collateralize the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower with respect to Letters of Credit as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such cash collateral so posted (to the extent not so applied as
aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
 (h)      Promptly following the end of each calendar quarter, the Issuing Bank shall deliver (through the Administrative Agent) to each Lender and the Borrower a report
describing the aggregate Letters of Credit outstanding at the end of such calendar quarter. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to such Lender any other information reasonably requested by such Lender
with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. 
 (i)       The
Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of
any of the following circumstances: 
 (i)        Any
lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement; 

(ii)       The existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right
which the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), any Lender
(including the Issuing Bank) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii)      Any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (iv)      Payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document to the Issuing Bank that does not comply with the terms of
such Letter of Credit; 
 (v)       Any other event or
circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.22, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s
obligations hereunder; or 
 (vi)      The existence of a Default
or an Event of Default. 

  
 61 









 Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Lenders nor any Related Party of any
of the foregoing shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
referred to above), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder),
any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the
extent of any actual direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect (including claims for lost profits or other consequential damages), or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by
applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise due care when determining whether drafts or other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto
expressly agree, that in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised due care in each such
determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit,
the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon
such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(j)       Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when
a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, (i) each standby Letter of Credit shall be governed by the “International Standby Practices 1998” (ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of
International Banking Law & Practice on any date any Letter of Credit may be issued), (ii) each documentary Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Uniform Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International
Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later revision as may be published by the International Chamber of Commerce on any date any Letter of Credit may be issued) and (iii) the Borrower shall specify the foregoing in each letter
of credit application submitted for the issuance of a Letter of Credit. 

Section 2.23.         Defaulting Lenders. 

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

(i)       Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove
any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders; 
 (ii)      Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or


  
 62 









 
mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to ARTICLE VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.8 shall be applied at
such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro
rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in
accordance with Section 2.28; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as
required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such
Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future
Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.28; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no
Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the
principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set
forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of,
or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without
giving effect to Section 2.23(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this
Section 2.23(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto; 
 (iii)     (A)      No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee described in Section 2.14(b) for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(B)      Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a fee
described in Section 2.14(c)(i) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Revolver Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash
Collateral pursuant to Section 2.28. 

  
 63 









   (C)      With
respect to any fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such
Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure or Swingline Exposure that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline
Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Issuing Bank’s or the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required
to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 
 (iv)      All or
any part of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolver Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting
Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at
such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such
Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including
any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (v)       If the reallocation described in clause (iv) immediately above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to
any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.28. 

(b)       If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the each Swingline Lender and
the Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein
(which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may
determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and the LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.23(a)(ii),
whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the 


  
 64 









 
Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from
Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

(c)      So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall
not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter
of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 

Section 2.24.         Incremental Credit Extensions.

 (a)      From time to time on or after the Closing Date, subject to the
terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, upon ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to
add one or more additional tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) or one or more increases in the Revolving Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments”; together with the Incremental Term
Loans, the “Incremental Facilities”), provided that at the time of the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall result therefrom,
(ii) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the covenants set forth in ARTICLE VI as of the last day of the most recently ended Fiscal Quarter after giving effect to such
Incremental Revolving Commitments (assuming for such purpose that such Incremental Revolving Commitments are fully drawn at such time) or Incremental Term Loans, as applicable, (iii) each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2
shall have been satisfied and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received from the Borrower such legal opinions, resolutions, certificates and other documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. Notwithstanding anything to
contrary herein, but subject to clause (e) immediately below, the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Facilities shall not exceed the sum of $380,000,000. Each Incremental Facility shall be in an integral multiple of $5,000,000
and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 in case of Incremental Term Loans or $10,000,000 in case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, provided that such amount may be less than the applicable minimum amount
if such amount represents all the remaining availability hereunder as set forth above or if the Administrative Agent agrees in writing to a lesser minimum amount. Each Incremental Facility shall rank pari passu in right of payment, and shall
have the same guarantees as, and be secured by the same Collateral securing, all of the other Obligations hereunder. 
 (b)      Except with respect to the Term Loan A-1, any Incremental Term Loans (i) for purposes of prepayments, shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any
event no more favorably than) the Term Loan A and (ii) other than amortization, pricing or maturity date, shall have the same terms as the Term Loans or such other terms as are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
provided that, except as provided in clause (f) below (A) any Incremental Term Loan shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the Term Loan A Maturity Date and (B) any Incremental Term Loan shall not have a
Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then-remaining Term Loan A. 

  
 65 









 (c)      Any Incremental Revolving Commitment
shall be on the same terms and conditions as, and pursuant to the same documentation as applicable to, the Revolving Commitments. From and after the making of an Incremental Term Loan or the addition of any Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant
to this Section, such Incremental Term Loan and such revolving loan funded pursuant to an Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be deemed a “Loan”, “Term Loan” and/or “Revolving Loan”, as applicable, hereunder for all
purposes hereof, and, except as set forth in clause (b) immediately above with respect to Incremental Term Loans, shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as each other Term Loan or Revolving Loan made pursuant to this
Agreement. 
 (d)      Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this
Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments. Except with respect to the Term Loan A-1, each Lender shall have the right for a period of ten
(10) days following receipt of such notice, to elect by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to provide the requested Incremental Facility by a principal amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Incremental Facility.
Any Lender who does not respond within such 10 day period shall be deemed to have elected not to provide such Incremental Facility. If any Lender shall elect not to provide such Incremental Facility pursuant to this Section 2.24, the
Borrower may designate any other bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the existing Lenders), which agrees to provide such Incremental Facility (any such other bank or other financial institution being
called an “Additional Lender”) and in the case of any Additional Lender, agrees to become a party to this Agreement, provided that the Issuing Bank (in the case of an increase through an Incremental Revolving Commitment) and
the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment if such consent
would be required under Section 10.4(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional Lender. Any Additional Lender shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment
(an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, such Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided, that no Incremental Facility
Amendment shall be required for the Term Loan A-1 if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower so determine. No Incremental Facility Amendment shall require the consent of any Lenders other than the Additional Lenders and/or any existing Lender who
has elected to provide any Incremental Term Loans or increase its Revolving Commitment with respect to such Incremental Facility Amendment. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments,
unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments shall become Commitments under this Agreement. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect
such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section. Upon each increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section, (a) each
Lender holding a Revolving Commitment immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each 

  
 66 









 
Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Revolving Commitment (each a “Incremental Revolving Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Lender
will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and
assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Lender holding a Revolving Commitment (including
each such Incremental Revolving Lender) will equal its Pro Rata Share and (b) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such increase of the
Revolving Commitments be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and
any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.19. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in
this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. This Section 2.24(d) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.21(a) and Section 10.2 to the contrary.

 (e)      If the Term Loan A-1 Commitment provided on the Closing Date is less
than $50,000,000, the Borrower shall have the right for a period of 30 days following the Closing Date to obtain an Incremental Term Loan in accordance with this Section 2.24, and the principal amount of such Incremental Term Loan shall
be excluded for purposes of determining the limitations set forth in clause (a) of this Section 2.24; provided, that (i) such Incremental Term Loan shall for all purposes be deemed to be the “Term Loan
A-1” and shall be subject to the terms, conditions and provisions herein related to the “Term Loan A-1” and (ii) in no event shall such Incremental Term Loan, together with any portion of the Term Loan A-1 funded on the
Closing Date, if any, exceed $50,000,000. 
 (f)      Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, no more than $180,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Incremental Facilities that are incurred after the Amendment Effective Date shall have either (i) a final maturity date earlier than the Term Loan A Maturity
Date or (ii) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then-remaining Term Loan A. Any Incremental Facilities incurred pursuant to this clause (f) shall be incurred, if at all,
(x) on no more than one occasion and in no more than one tranche in the aggregate of Incremental Term Loans and (y) on or before August 7, 2013. 

Section 2.25.         Maturity Extensions. 

(a)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (but subject to
Section 2.9(d)), pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like maturity date or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity
date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower
is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that 

  
 67 









 
accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Term
Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing or decreasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and
related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or after giving effect to such Extension, (ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be
determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Commitment of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Commitment extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving
Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Revolving Commitments being extended (and related outstandings); provided
that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending
Revolving Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis
with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other
Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and
(3) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans so extended,
(iii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and
(vi), be determined between the Borrower and the Extending Term Lenders and be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term
Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer, (iv) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall
be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date, (v) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby, (vi) any
Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension
Offer, (vii) if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which relevant Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall
exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such
Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum 

  
 68 









 
amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (viii) all documentation
in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, (ix) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition (as defined in clause (b) below) shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower and (x) at no time
shall there be (A) Revolving Commitments hereunder which have more than two different maturity dates and (B) Term Loans hereunder which have more than two different maturity dates, unless, in either case, the Administrative Agent agrees to
permit additional maturity dates. For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be obligated or otherwise required to participate in any Extension without its express consent. 

(b)      With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this
Section, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.11 or Section 2.12 and (ii) each Extension Offer is required to be in a minimum amount of
$10,000,000; provided that the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant
Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable tranches be tendered. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent
to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in
the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section. 

(c)      No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to
effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect to any Extension of the
Revolving Commitments, the consent of the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under the Loan Documents that
are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under the Loan Documents. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any
Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section and any Extension
(including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments and as a separate “Tranche” and “Class” hereunder of
Loans and Commitments, as the case may be). In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans expiring on or after
the Revolving Commitment Termination Date in respect of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such
amendment; provided that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such
participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. 

  
 69 









 (d)      In connection with any Extension,
the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation,
regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case
acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section. 
 (e)      If the
Revolving Commitment Termination Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if another tranche of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the Revolving Commitment
Termination Date shall not have occurred is then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving
Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.22.) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the
aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to
immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank but only up to the amount of such Letter of Credit not so reallocated.
Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Revolving Commitment Termination Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Commitments
shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Revolving Commitment Termination Date. 

(f)      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender hereby
irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent on its behalf, and without further consent, to enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the
Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to effectuate the terms of this Section 2.25; provided that no amendment or modification shall result in any increase in the amount of any Lender’s Commitment or any
increase in any Lender’s Pro Rata Share, in each case, without the written consent of such affected Lender. 
 Section 2.26.         Mitigation of Obligations. 
 If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.20, then 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 sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts 

  
 70 









 
payable under Section 2.18 or Section 2.20, 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. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment. 

Section 2.27.         Replacement of Lenders.

 If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, (b) the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, (c) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (d) in connection with any proposed amendment,
waiver, or consent, the consent of all of the Lenders, or all of the Lenders directly affected thereby, is required pursuant to Section 10.2, and any such Lender refuses to consent to such amendment, waiver or consent as to which the
Required Lenders have consented, then, in each case, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (but without prejudice to any rights or remedies the Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender), upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 10.4(b)) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender but excluding any Defaulting Lender); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) prior to, or contemporaneous with, the replacement of such Lender, such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest
thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (in the case of such outstanding principal and accrued interest) and from the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of a claim for
compensation under Section 2.18 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) in the case of clause (d) above,
the assignee Lender shall have agreed to provide its consent to the requested amendment, waiver or consent. 

Section 2.28.         Cash Collateral For Defaulting
Lenders. 
 At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following
the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after
giving effect to Section 2.23(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by or in respect of such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than 103% of the Fronting Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such
time. 
 (a)      The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting
Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’
obligations in respect of LC Exposure, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) immediately below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the
Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral 

  
 71 









 
is less than 103% of the Fronting Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding at such time, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or
provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by or in respect of the Defaulting Lender). 

(b)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash
Collateral provided under this Section or Section 2.23 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation in respect of its LC Exposure (including, as to Cash Collateral
provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 

(c)      Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the
Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status
of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.23, the Borrower or other Person providing
Cash Collateral and the Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral to be so held was
provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

later date demonstrating Borrowing Base availability to support such increased Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure; and 
 (e)      the Borrower shall have delivered a Notice of Borrowing (if applicable).

conditions of the Existing Credit Agreement and any other “Loan Document” as defined therein, as amended and restated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents being executed and

conditions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended as set forth herein and, as so amended and restated, shall be restated in their entirety, but shall be amended only with respect to the rights, duties and obligations among the Borrower,

longer set forth herein or is modified hereby; and (h) any and all references in the Loan Documents to the Existing Credit Agreement shall, without further action of the parties, be deemed a reference to the Existing Credit Agreement, as

Revolving Loans equal to its Applicable Revolver Percentage (based on the Revolving Commitment of each Lender as set forth on Schedule II-A) and each Lender holds Term Loans equal to the amount set forth on Schedule II-A and
Schedule II-B, respectively, in an amount equal to the Term Loan Commitment of such Lender, if any. 
 ARTICLE IV

 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender as follows: 

Section 4.1.         Existence and Standing. 

Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership (in the case of Subsidiaries only) or
limited liability company (a) duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, (b) validly existing and (c) (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except in the case of this clause (c) where failure to be in good standing or to be so
authorized could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it being understood and agreed, for purposes of this Section, that the failure of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries to be in good standing or to be authorized
to conduct its business in any jurisdiction where such failure could have a material and adverse impact on the ability of such Person to enforce or otherwise collect in the Receivables of such Person in any such jurisdiction shall be deemed to have
a Material Adverse Effect). 

Section 4.2.         Authorization and Validity.

 The Borrower has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to
which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper proceedings,
and the Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent conveyances, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and
(iii) requirements of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. 

  
 78 










Section 4.3.         No Conflict; Government Consent.

 Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, of the
Loan Documents to which such Person is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or
award binding on the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (ii) the Borrower’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or
certificate of organization, by-laws, or operating agreement or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iii) the provisions of any material indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with, or constitute a default thereunder, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of the Borrower or a
Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of, any such indenture, instrument or agreement, except, in the case of clause (i), for any such violation which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No order,
consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has
not been obtained by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the
other Loan Parties, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrower of the Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. 

Section 4.4.         Financial Statements; No Material Adverse
Change. 
 The December 31, 2012 audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated financial
condition and operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at such date and the consolidated results of their operations for the period then ended. Since December 31, 2012, there has been no change in the business, Property, prospects,
condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Borrower, any Guarantor, or the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken together, in each case which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect 

Section 4.5.         Litigation and Contingent Obligations.

 There is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to
the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of
any Credit Extensions. Other than liabilities incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which could not reasonably be expected to be in an aggregate amount in excess of $5,000,000, none of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries has
any material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 4.4. 

  
 79 










Section 4.6.          Compliance with Laws.

 The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have complied in all material respects with all applicable
statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction over the conduct of their respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property,
except for any failure to comply which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 4.7.          Investment Company Act.

 Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company
“controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Section 4.8.          Taxes. 
 Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.8, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed and have
paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except in respect of such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves
have been provided in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles and as to which no Lien exists (except as permitted by Section 7.2(a)). Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.8 as of the Closing Date, none of the United States
income tax returns of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries are being audited by the Internal Revenue Service. To the knowledge of any of the Borrower’s officers, no Liens have been filed, and no claims are being asserted with respect to
such taxes. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate. 

Section 4.9.          Regulation U. 

Neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important
activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate of buying or carrying margin stock (as defined in Regulation U), and after applying the proceeds of each Credit Extension, margin stock (as
defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or any other restriction hereunder. 

Section 4.10.        ERISA. 

The Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans and all nonqualified deferred compensation arrangements do not in
the aggregate exceed $5,000,000. Neither the Borrower nor any other member of the Controlled Group has incurred, or is reasonably expected to incur, within the meaning of Section 4201 of ERISA, any withdrawal liability to Multiemployer Plans in
excess of an amount that would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations. No Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan. Neither the Borrower nor
any other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Multiemployer Plan within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA or initiated steps to do so, and no steps have been taken to reorganize or terminate, within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA,
any Multiemployer Plan.

Section 4.11.         Ownership of Property. 

The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have good title, free of all Liens other than those permitted by
Section 7.2, to all of the Property and assets reflected in the Borrower’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the Administrative Agent, as owned by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, except for
minor irregularities in title that (i) do not materially interfere with the business or operations of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries as presently conducted and (ii) do not adversely affect the value of any of the Collateral in
any material respect. Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed, or otherwise has the right, to use, all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights and other intellectual property to its business, and
the use thereof by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe in any respect on the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringement which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 4.12.         Accuracy of Information.

 No Loan Document or written statement furnished by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
the Agents or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents contained, on the date such Loan Document was entered into or such statements were made, any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state
a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in their presentation of the Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries, their businesses and their
Property. The Borrower makes no representation or warranty concerning the forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements as to anticipated future performance or conditions, and the assumptions on which they were based,
except that as of the date made (i) such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements were based on good faith assumptions of the management of the Borrower and (ii) such assumptions were believed by such
management to be reasonable; it being understood and agreed that such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements, and the assumptions on which they are based, may or may not prove to be correct. In addition, the
information provided by or on behalf of the Loan Parties with respect to the Receivables owned or to be acquired by the Loan Parties (or the related purchase agreements) is, to the Borrower’s knowledge and as of the date provided, true and
correct in all material respects and, to the Borrower’s knowledge, does not contain any material omissions which would cause such information to be materially misleading with respect to such Receivables, taken as a whole. 

Section 4.13.         Environmental Matters. 

The Borrower is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except for any noncompliance which could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable


  
 81 









 
Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance
into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 4.14.         Subsidiaries. 
 Schedule 4.14 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Borrower as of the Amendment Effective Date, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of
their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Borrower or other Subsidiaries and whether such Subsidiary, as of the Amendment Effective Date, is an Immaterial Subsidiary. As of the Amendment Effective Date, there are no
Excluded Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of the Restricted Subsidiaries have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly
authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. 

Section 4.15.         Solvency. 

After giving effect to the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and the making of the Loans under this
Agreement, neither the Borrower nor its Restricted Subsidiaries will be “insolvent,” within the meaning of such term as defined in § 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended from time to time, or be unable to pay its
debts generally as such debts become due, or have an unreasonably small capital to engage in any business or transaction, whether current or contemplated. 
 Section 4.16.         Insurance. 
 The Borrower maintains, and has caused each Restricted Subsidiary to maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance on their Property as necessary to conduct their business
in such amounts, subject to such deductibles and self-insurance retentions and covering such properties and risks as is consistent with sound business practice.

Specifically Designated National and Blocked Persons (SDN) list issued by the Office of Foreign Asset Control of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America. 

Section 4.18.         Patriot Act. 

Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with (i) the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and
each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, and (ii) the Uniting And Strengthening

official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices
Act of 1977, as amended. 
 Section 4.19.        Plan
Assets; Prohibited Transactions. 
 The Borrower is not an entity deemed to hold “plan
assets” within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of
Section 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Loans hereunder gives rise to a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. 

Section 4.20.        Material Agreements. 

Except as described in Schedule 4.20, neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary is a party to any
agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate or similar restriction which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary is in default in any respect in the
performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any (i) agreement or instrument to which it is a party, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or
(ii) any agreement or instrument evidencing or governing Material Indebtedness. 

Section 4.21.        No Default or Event of Default.

 No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 5.8.           Insurance.

Section 5.10.         Guarantors. 

The Borrower shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Excluded Subsidiaries, Immaterial
Subsidiaries and each member of the Propel Group) to guarantee pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement or supplement thereto (or, in the case of a Foreign Subsidiary, any other guaranty agreement requested by the Administrative Agent) the Secured
Obligations. In furtherance of the above, after the formation or acquisition of any Restricted Subsidiary or a Subsidiary Redesignation, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event upon 

  
 88 









 
the earlier of (x) such time as such Restricted Subsidiary becomes a guarantor, co-borrower or other obligor under the Prudential Financing and (y) within 45 days after such formation
or acquisition or Subsidiary Redesignation (with any such time limit permitted to be extended by the Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion)) (i) provide written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders upon any Person becoming
a Restricted Subsidiary, setting forth information in reasonable detail describing all of the assets of such Person, (ii) cause such Person (other than any member of the Propel Group and any Immaterial Subsidiary) to execute a supplement to the
Guaranty Agreement and such other Collateral Documents as are necessary for the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to comply with Section 5.11, (iii) cause the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the issued and outstanding equity interests

may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing, including, without limitation, certified resolutions and other authority documents of such Person and, to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, favorable opinions of counsel to
such Person (which shall cover, among other things, the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the documentation referred to above), all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to execute and deliver the Guaranty Agreement (or supplement thereto) or such other guaranty agreement if such execution and delivery would cause a Deemed Dividend Problem or a
Financial Assistance Problem with respect to such Foreign Subsidiary and, in lieu thereof, the Borrower and the relevant Restricted Subsidiaries shall provide the pledge agreements required under this Section 5.10 or
Section 5.11. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower will be required to comply with this Section (x) with respect to any Subsidiaries of Propel Acquisition LLC to the extent that the provisions of the Propel Indebtedness no
longer prohibits the guaranty of the Obligations or the granting of security in respect thereto and (y) with respect to any Immaterial Subsidiary if it ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary under the terms of the definition thereof.

permitted by Section 7.2 (it being understood and agreed that (a) no control agreements will be required hereunder in respect of bank accounts and (b) Mortgages and Mortgage Instruments will only be required hereunder in
respect of Mortgaged Properties). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower will (i) cause the Applicable Pledge Percentage of the issued and outstanding equity interests of each Pledge Subsidiary directly owned by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to be subject at all times to a first priority, perfected Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent to secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents or such other
security documents as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request and (ii) will, and will cause each Guarantor to, deliver Mortgages and Mortgage Instruments with respect to real property owned by the


  
 89 









 
Borrower or such Guarantor to the extent, and within such time period as is, reasonably required by the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no pledge agreement in respect of the
equity interests of a Foreign Subsidiary shall be required hereunder to the extent such pledge thereunder is prohibited by applicable law or the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that such pledge would not provide material credit support
for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to legally valid, binding and enforceable pledge agreements. 

Section 5.12.        Post-Closing Obligations. 

The Borrower shall execute and deliver the documents and complete the tasks set forth on Schedule 5.12, in each
case as promptly as possible after the Closing Date and in any event within the time limits specified on such schedule (with any such time limit permitted to be extended by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). The provisions of

Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders evidencing the incorporation of such Most Favored Covenant, it being agreed that any failure to make such request or to enter into any such amendment shall in no way qualify or limit the incorporation by
reference described in clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence. 

Section 7.18.         Use of Proceeds. 

The Borrower will not request any Credit Extension with the intent, or for the purpose, of using the proceeds of such

 Section 8.2.          Acceleration.

 (a)      If any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(f)
or Section 8.1(g) occurs with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically terminate and the Obligations
shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of either Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, and the Borrower will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to
pay the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the LC Collateral Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time less (y) the amount or deposit
in the LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Event of Default occurs,
the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of
Credit, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without 

  
 105









 
presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives and (b) upon notice to the Borrower and in addition to the continuing right to demand
payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act pay to the Administrative Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount which
funds shall be deposited in the LC Collateral Account. 
 (b)      If at any time
while any Event of Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Administrative Agent may make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith
upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the LC Collateral Account. 

(c)      The Agents may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the
LC Collateral Account, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, apply such funds to the payment of the Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Lenders or the Issuing
Bank under the Loan Documents. 
 (d)      At any time while any Event of Default
is continuing, neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the LC Collateral Account. After all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full
and the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Collateral Agent to the Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time, including
pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement. 
 (e)      If, after acceleration of
the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit hereunder as a result of any Event of Default (other than any Event of Default
as described in Section 8.1(f) or Section 8.1(g) with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole
discretion) shall so direct, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination. 
 (f)       All proceeds from each sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral during the existence of an Event of Default shall be applied
pursuant to, and in accordance with, the Pledge and Security Agreement. 
 ARTICLE IX 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT 

Section 9.1.         Appointment; Nature of Relationship.

 SunTrust Bank is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative as
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder and under each other 

  
 106









 
Loan Document, and each of the Lenders authorizes each of the Agents to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement, on behalf of such Lender (each Lender hereby agreeing to be bound by the terms of
the Intercreditor Agreement, as if it were a party thereto, with the Holders of Prudential Note Obligations to be intended third-party beneficiaries of such agreement) and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes each of the Agents to act as the
contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Each Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this
ARTICLE IX. Notwithstanding the use of the defined terms “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, it is expressly understood and agreed that the Agents shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any of the
Secured Parties by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Agents are merely acting as the contractual representatives of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. In their capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representatives, (i) neither Agent hereby assumes any fiduciary duties to any of the Secured Parties, (ii) the Collateral Agent is a “representative” of the Secured
Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) each Agent is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders, for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates as Holders of Obligations, hereby agrees to assert no claim against either Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of
liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Holder of Obligations hereby waives. Except as expressly set forth herein, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall either Agent be liable for the failure to disclose,
any information relating to the Borrower or any other Loan Party that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

Section 9.2.           Powers. 

Each Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the such
Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Agent shall have any implied duties or fiduciary duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except
any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by such Agent. 

Section 9.3.           General Immunity.

 Neither Agent nor any of their Related Parties shall be liable to the Borrower, or any Lender or Holder
of Obligations for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment
by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person. 

  
 107










Section 9.4.         No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals,
Etc. 
 Neither Agent nor any of their Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty to
ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any Borrowing; (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any
Loan Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in ARTICLE III, except receipt of items required to be delivered
solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or
writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any Collateral; or (g) the financial condition of the Borrower or any guarantor of any of the Obligations or of any of
the Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries. Neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required to be furnished by the Borrower to such Agent at such time, but is voluntarily
furnished by the Borrower to such Agent (either in its capacity as an Agent or in its individual capacity). 

Section 9.5.           Action on Instructions of
Lenders. 
 Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders in the event that and to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires such), and such instructions and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that neither Agent shall be under any duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions
of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders in the event that and to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires such) or is otherwise required by
the Intercreditor Agreement. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and
all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. 

Section 9.6.           Employment of Agents and
Counsel. 
 Each Agent may execute any of its duties as Agent hereunder and under any other Loan
Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Each Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between such Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to such Agent’s duties hereunder and
under any other Loan Document. 

Section 9.7.           Reliance on Documents;
Counsel. 
 Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate,
affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex, electronic mail message, statement, paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper


  
 108









 
person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel reasonably selected by such Agent, which counsel may be employees of such Agent. For purposes of determining
compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.1 and Section 3.2, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other
matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the applicable date specifying its objection thereto.

 Section 9.8.           Agent’s
Reimbursement and Indemnification. 
 The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify each Agent ratably
in proportion to the Lenders’ Pro Rata Share (i) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrower for which such Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrower under the Loan Documents, (ii) for any other expenses incurred by such
Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by such Agent in connection with any dispute
between such Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (iii) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which
may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without
limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against such Agent in connection with any dispute between such Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of
any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of the such Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 2.20(e) and Section 10.4(d) shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, be paid by the
relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall survive payment of the Secured Obligations and termination of this Agreement. 

Section 9.9.           Notice of Default.

 No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default hereunder unless such Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that
either Agent receives such a notice, such Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. 

  
 109










Section 9.10.         Rights as a Lender. 

In the event either Agent is a Lender, such Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other
Loan Document with respect to its Revolving Commitment and its Credit Extensions as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when an Agent is a
Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include such Agent in its individual capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in
addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. Neither Agent, in its
individual capacity, is obligated to remain a Lender. 

Section 9.11.         Lender Credit Decision.

 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon either Agent, the
Arrangers or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Borrower and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent, the Arrangers or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to
make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 9.12.         Successor Administrative Agent. 

The Administrative Agent (i) may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the
Borrower and (ii), if the Total Exposure (as defined below) of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (in each case in their capacity as a Lender) is less than 7.5%, the Required Lenders may require the Administrative Agent to resign, such
resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, forty-five (45) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to
resign or the Required Lenders have requested such resignation. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, in consultation with the Borrower, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative
Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may
appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent may at any time without the consent of the Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates
which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder
and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such
successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor 

  
 110









 
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Administrative Agent.
Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the resigning Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of an
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this ARTICLE IX shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Administrative Agent by merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section, then the term
“Base Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Administrative Agent. The term “Total Exposure” shall mean, at any time of determination with respect to the
Revolving Commitment and Term Loans held by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (in their capacity as a Lender), the quotient (expressed as a percentage) of: (x) the sum of such Lenders’ Revolving Commitments (or if the Revolving
Commitments have been terminated or expired or the Revolving Loans have been declared to be due and payable, such Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposure) plus the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of such Lenders divided by
(y) the sum of all Lenders’ Revolving Commitments (or if such Revolving Commitments have been terminated or expired or the Revolving Loans have been declared to be due and payable, the Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders) plus
the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of such Lenders. 

Section 9.13.         Delegation to Affiliates.

 The Borrower and the Lenders agree that each Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement
to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and
other protective provisions to which such Agent is entitled under ARTICLE IX and ARTICLE X. 

Section 9.14.         Co-Agents, Documentation Agent,
Syndication Agent. 
 None of the Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a
“co-agent”, “documentation agent” or “syndication agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without
limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Administrative
Agent in Section 9.11. 

Section 9.15.         Collateral Documents. 

(a)      Each Lender and the Administrative Agent authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter
into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Secured Parties (other than the Collateral Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize
upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Collateral Documents and
the Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 111









 (b)      In the event that any Collateral is
hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized (subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement) to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan
Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. 
 (c)      Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its
discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity
obligations, Banking Services Obligations and Rate Management Obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) as permitted by, but only in
accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the
Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section. 

(d)      Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted
pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower to the Collateral Agent, the
Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to), subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens
granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute
any such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent’s 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 Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. 
 (e)      Each Lender hereby directs, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Agents: (i) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty
Agreement and any Collateral Document (including the release of any Lien granted by such Guarantor under any such Collateral Document) in connection with (x) the designation of such Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to the
definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” or (y) the execution by any Subsidiary of Propel Acquisition LLC of an agreement evidencing Propel Indebtedness the terms of which prohibit such Subsidiary from providing a guaranty of the
Obligations or the granting of security in respect thereto and (ii) to execute and deliver or file or authorize the filing of such documents, statements and instruments and do such other things as

are necessary to release such Guarantor from such obligations (and to release such Liens) pursuant to this clause (e) promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release. Upon request
by any Agent at any time, the Lenders shall confirm in writing each Agent’s authority to release the applicable Guarantor pursuant to this clause (e). 

(f)      No agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the
Collateral Agent without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. 

Section 9.16.         Reports. 

Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of either Agent;
(b) neither Agent (i) makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report or any of the information contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report
nor (ii) shall be liable for any information contained in any Report; (c) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, and that any Person performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding the
Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Agents undertake no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports;
(d) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) without limiting the generality of
any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages,
costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable attorney fees) incurred by as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender. 

Section 9.17.         Withholding Tax. 

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any
Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid
to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or
reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the
obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated
staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.

Claim. 
 (a)      In case of the pendency of any receivership,
insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Revolving Credit
Exposure shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise: 
 (i)       to file and prove a
claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans or Revolving Credit Exposure and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in
order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline
Lender and the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

 (ii)      to collect and receive any monies or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and 

(b)      Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other
similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such
payments directly to the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and
counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3. 
 Nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

 (b)      Any agreement of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders herein to receive certain notices by telephone, facsimile or other electronic
transmission is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by the Borrower
to give such notice and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders
in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and all other Obligations hereunder shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank and the Lenders to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders to be contained in any such telephonic or facsimile notice. 
 (c)      Notices and other communications to the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication
(including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to

Section 10.2.         Waiver; Amendments. 

(a)      No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
in exercising any right or power hereunder or any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, 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 right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.2, 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 the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of
whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. 
 (b)      Except as provided in Section 2.24 with respect to any Incremental Facility Amendment or Section 2.25 with respect to any Extension, no
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, nor consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and the
Required Lenders or the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided,
that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, amend or otherwise modify the definition of Estimated Remaining Collections or the methods and assumptions used in calculating Estimated Remaining
Collections; provided, further that no amendment or waiver shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce
the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any scheduled payment of any principal (excluding any mandatory
prepayment) of, or interest on, any Loan or LC Disbursement or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Commitment, without the written
consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.21(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change
any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder
or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender; (vi) release the Borrower or, except as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder, any Guarantor, or limit the liability of the Borrower under the Loan
Documents or any such Guarantor under any 

  
 117









 
guaranty agreement, without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that the creation of a class of unrestricted or similarly designated Subsidiaries approved by the Required
Lenders which class would not be required to guaranty the Obligations shall not be considered a release of any Guarantor); (vii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral securing any of the Obligations or agree to subordinate any Lien
in such Collateral to any other creditor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, without the written consent of each Lender; (viii) subordinate the Loans to any other Indebtedness without the consent of all Lenders; (ix) increase the aggregate
of all Commitments (other than pursuant to Section 2.24(a)) without the consent of all of the Lenders; or (x) change Section 7.2 of the Security Agreement (or the defined terms therein) in a manner that would alter the sharing
of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender (or Affiliate of such Lender) directly and adversely affected thereby; provided further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties
or obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such Person. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, (x) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to
approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (I) the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (II) subject in all respects to
Section 2.23, no amendment or waiver shall reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest on any Loan, in each case, owing to a Defaulting Lender, without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) this
Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this
Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (a), Section 2.20, Section 2.20(a) and
Section 10.3), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist (and shall be deemed to be continuing) until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with
the terms of this Section notwithstanding (i) any attempted cure or other action taken by the Borrower or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to or subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default (other than the granting of a waiver in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section). 

Section 10.3.         Expenses; Indemnification.

 (a)      The Borrower shall reimburse the Agents and the Arrangers for any
reasonable costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and time charges of attorneys for each Agent, which attorneys may be employees of such Agent and expenses of and fees for
other advisors and professionals engaged by such Agent or the Arrangers) paid or incurred by any Agent or the Arrangers in connection with the investigation, preparation, negotiation, documentation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution
(including, without limitation, via the internet), review, amendment, modification and administration of the Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders for any reasonable costs,
internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees and time charges 

  
 118









 
and expenses of attorneys and paralegals for the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, which attorneys and paralegals may be employees of the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing
Bank or the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Agents, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in connection with (i) the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents and (ii) any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect
of any of the Obligations. Expenses being reimbursed by the Borrower under this Section include, without limitation, the cost and expense of obtaining the field examination contemplated by Section 5.7 and the preparation of Reports
described in the following sentence based on the fees charged by a third party retained by either Agent or the internally allocated fees for each Person employed by such Agent with respect to each field examination. The Borrower acknowledges that
from time to time either Agent may prepare and may distribute to the Lenders (but shall have no obligation or duty to prepare or to distribute to the Lenders) certain audit reports (the “Reports”) pertaining to the Borrower’s
assets for internal use by the Agents from information furnished to them by or on behalf of the Borrower, after either such Agent has exercised its rights of inspection pursuant to this Agreement. 

(b)      The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent
thereof), each Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and
disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of
(i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed 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 documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) the use by any Person of any information or materials obtained by or through SyndTrak or other internet web
sites, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any
other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other
Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 119









 (c)      The Borrower shall pay, and hold the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each of the Lenders harmless from and against, any and all present and future stamp, documentary, and other similar taxes with respect to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents,
any collateral described therein, or any payments due thereunder, and save the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes.

 (d)      To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to
be paid to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10.3, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided, that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. 

(e)      To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and
hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated herein or therein, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph
(b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed 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. 

(f)       All amounts due under this Section 10.3 shall be payable
promptly after written demand therefor. 

Section 10.4.         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, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way
of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (g) of this Section (and any other attempted
assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 120









  (b)      Any Lender may at any time
assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to either
Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 

(i)        Minimum Amounts. 

 (A)      in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount
of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to either Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph
(b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

 (B)      in any case not described in
Section 10.4(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding
balance of the Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if
“Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $3,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower
otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such lower amount unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative
Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof. 

(ii)       Proportionate Amounts.    Each
partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, Revolving Credit Exposure or the Commitments assigned, except that
this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis. 

(iii)      Required Consents.    No consent
shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 10.4(b)(i)(B) and, in addition: 
  (A)      the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object
thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

  
 121









  (B)      the consent of
the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i) the Revolving Facility or any unfunded Commitments with respect to the Term Loan Facility if such assignment
is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, or (ii) any Term Loans to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund; and 
  (C)      the consent of the
Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Facility. 
 (iv)      Assignment and Acceptance.  The parties to each assignment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a duly executed Assignment and
Acceptance, (B) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment, (C) an Administrative
Questionnaire unless the assignee is already a Lender and (D) the documents required under Section 2.20 if such assignee is a Foreign Lender. 

(v)       No Assignment to Borrower.   No such
assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of
the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B). 

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

  
 122









 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
paragraph (c) of this Section 10.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such
Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under
this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits
of Section 2.18 and Section 10.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties,
no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this
Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 10.4. If
the consent of the Borrower to an assignment is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified above), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent five
(5) Business Days after the date notice thereof has actually been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to the Borrower, unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such fifth Business Day.

 (c)      The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent
of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Atlanta, Georgia a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; information contained in the Register shall also be available for inspection by the Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. In establishing and maintaining the Register, the Administrative Agent shall serve as the Borrower’s agent solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section, and the Borrower
hereby agrees that, to the extent SunTrust Bank serves in such capacity, SunTrust Bank and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall constitute an “Indemnitee” for purposes of Section 10.3.

 (d)      Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s
obligations under this Agreement shall remain 

  
 123









 
unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be
responsible for the indemnity under Section 2.20(e) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). 
 (e)      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 Section 10.2(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.18 and Section 2.20 (subject
to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.20(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the
same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.25 and
Section 2.27 as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 and Section 2.20, with respect to any
participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable
participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.27 with respect to any
Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.8 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.21(c) as
though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts
(and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the
Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any
notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(f)      Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or to any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender;
provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

  
 124










Section 10.5.         Performance of Obligations.

 The Borrower agrees that the Collateral Agent may, but shall have no obligation to (i) at any time,
pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against any Collateral and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default make any other payment or perform any act
required of the Borrower under any Loan Document or take any other action which the Collateral Agent in its discretion deems necessary or desirable to protect or preserve the Collateral, including, without limitation, any action to (x) effect
any repairs or obtain any insurance called for by the terms of any of the Loan Documents and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof and (y) pay any rents payable by the Borrower which are more than 30 days past
due, or as to which the landlord has given notice of termination, under any lease. The Collateral Agent shall use its best efforts to give the Borrower notice of any action taken under this Section prior to the taking of such action or promptly
thereafter provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay the Collateral Agent, upon demand, the principal amount of all funds advanced by the Collateral Agent
under this Section, together with interest thereon at the rate from time to time applicable to Base Rate Loans from the date of such advance until the outstanding principal balance thereof is paid in full. If the Borrower fails to make payment in
respect of any such advance under this Section within one (1) Business Day after the date the Borrower receives written demand therefor from the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and each Lender agrees
that it shall thereupon make available to the Collateral Agent, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance. If such funds are not made available to the Collateral Agent by such
Lender within one (1) Business Day after the Collateral Agent’s demand therefor, the Collateral Agent will be entitled to recover any such amount from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during
the period commencing on the date of such demand and ending on the date such amount is received. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such unreimbursed advance under this Section shall
neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Collateral Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to
make such payment to the Collateral Agent. All outstanding principal of, and interest on, advances made under this Section shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral until paid in full by the Borrower 

Section 10.6.         Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to
Service of Process. 
 (a)      This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set
forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the law (without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof) of the State of New York. 

  
 125









 (b)      The Borrower hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York county and any
appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of
the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York court or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Federal court. Each
of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other
Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in
the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c)      The Borrower irrevocably and
unconditionally waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding described in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4(a) and brought in any court referred to in
paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4(a). Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court. 
 (d)      Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to the
service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.1. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

Section 10.7.         WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

  
 126










Section 10.8.         Right of Setoff. 

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or if any Loan Party shall have become insolvent, however
evidenced, each Lender (including the Swingline Lender), the Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any
and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the
credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Loan Parties may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a
branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any
such right of setoff hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.23 and,
pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide
promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective
Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

Section 10.9.         Counterparts; Integration.

 This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate
counterparts (including by telecopy or by email, in pdf format), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement, the Fee Letter, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter
agreement(s) relating to any fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto and thereto regarding the subject matters hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral
or written, regarding such subject matters. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement and any other Loan Document by telecopy or by email, in pdf format, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Document. 

Section 10.10.       Survival. 

All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein, in the Loan Documents and in the
certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the


  
 127









 
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 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
Section 2.18(a), Section 2.19, Section 2.20 and Section 10.3 and ARTICLE IX 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. All representations and warranties made herein, in the Loan Documents in the
certificates, reports, notices, and other documents delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit.

 Section 10.11.       Severability. 

Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction, shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the
illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

Section 10.12.       Confidentiality. 

The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to hold any Confidential Information (as hereinafter defined) which it
may receive from the Borrower in connection with this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to the Agents and any other Lender and their respective Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement (provided that such parties are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and are instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (ii) to legal counsel, accountants, and other
professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee (as defined below) in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (provided that such parties are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and are
instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (iii) to regulatory agencies or authorities purporting to have jurisdiction over the Loan Parties (including bank examiners and any self-regulatory authority such as the National
Association of Insurance Commissioners) upon request or as required by law, (iv) subject to the proviso below, to any Person as requested pursuant to or as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (v) to its direct or indirect
contractual counterparties and prospective counterparties in swap agreements related to the Credit Extensions or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties when provided for such purposes,
(vi) permitted by the last sentence of this Section, (vii) to rating agencies if requested or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Credit Extensions hereunder, (viii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any
similar organization and (ix) in connection with enforcement of the rights and remedies of the 

  
 128









 
Agents or any Lender under the Loan Documents to the extent such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to pursue such enforcement in a commercially reasonable manner; provided that, in
the case of subsection (iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent or relevant Lender to whom the disclosure request or requirement is made, agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly notify the
Borrower of such request or requirement so that the Borrower may (a) seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate order at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and/or (b) waive compliance with this proviso (it being
understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not have the right to obtain such an order or if the Borrower does not commence procedures to obtain such a protective order within 5 Business Days of receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent
and Lenders’ compliance with this proviso shall be deemed to have been waived with respect to such disclosure). Without limiting Section 10.9, the Borrower agrees that the terms of this Section shall set forth the entire agreement
between the Borrower and each Lender (including the Agents) with respect to any Confidential Information previously or hereafter received by such Lender in connection with this Agreement, and this Section shall supersede any and all prior
confidentiality agreements entered into by such Lender with respect to such Confidential Information. As used in this Section, “Confidential Information” means any information or material regarding the business operations,
procedures, methods and plans of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, any financial data, proposed transaction or financing structures, information relating to the Receivables or the Receivables Portfolios, and all reports (other than copies of
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission) and other information provided pursuant to Section 5.1, together with all notes, analyses, compilations, studies and other documents to the extent they contain or otherwise
reflect such information; provided that “Confidential Information” shall not include any such information which (i) is generally available to the public at the time it is provided by, or on behalf of, the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, (ii) was known to the intended recipient prior to such information being disclosed to either Agent or any Lender and/or (iii) is independently developed by or for the Agents or any Lender. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to
disclose to any Participant or Eligible Assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s
possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including without limitation any information contained in any Reports; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by this
Section. 
 Section 10.13.       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 may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by a 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 10.13 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 Rate
to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

  
 129









 Section 10.14.       Waiver
of Effect of Corporate Seal. 
 The Borrower represents and warrants that neither it nor any other Loan
Party is required to affix its corporate seal to this Agreement or any other Loan Document pursuant to any Requirement of Law, agrees that this Agreement is delivered by Borrower under seal and waives any shortening of the statute of limitations
that may result from not affixing the corporate seal to this Agreement or such other Loan Documents. 

Section 10.15.       Patriot Act. 

The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA
PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and
address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each Loan Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, provide to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining
compliance with the Patriot Act. 

Section 10.16.       Independence of Covenants. 

All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted
by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or
condition exists. 
 Section 10.17.       No Advisory or
Fiduciary Relationship. 
 In connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and
other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and
accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and,
except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative
Agent nor any Lender or Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan


  
 130









 
Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that
differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Arrangers has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by
law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender or either Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any
transaction contemplated hereby.
