NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is acknowledged by each party hereto, it is agreed:









	I.	2016 Revolving Commitment Increase. 

 A. Pursuant to Section 2.20 of the Credit
Agreement, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section IV.E hereof, on and as of the Fifth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below): 

1. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Credit Agreement, each 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender hereby
agrees to provide the 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase to the Borrower on the Fifth Amendment Effective Date in the amount set forth opposite such 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender’s name on Schedule 1 hereto. 

2. Each 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender hereby agrees that upon, and subject to, the occurrence of the Fifth Amendment Effective
Date, such 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender shall be deemed to be, and shall become, a “Lender” under, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to its Revolving Commitment hereunder. From and after the Fifth
Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Revolving Commitments” shall include Revolving Commitments as increased by this 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase. 

3. From and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Revolving Commitments made pursuant to this Amendment shall for all purposes of the
Loan Documents be deemed to be “Revolving Commitments.” From and after the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, any loans extended utilizing 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase made pursuant to this Amendment shall be designated as, and for all
purposes of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be, “Revolving Loans” and “Loans”. The 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase (including any Revolving Loans extended utilizing the 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase) shall have
terms and provisions (and be subject to documentation) (including with respect to security interests and guarantees, but excluding upfront fees, original issue discount or similar fees) that are identical to those of the existing Revolving
Commitments (including any Revolving Loans extended utilizing the existing Revolving Commitments) prior to giving effect to this Amendment. 

4. Each 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Fifth Amendment; (ii) agrees
that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue
to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance
with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

 B. For purposes of the Credit Agreement, the Fifth Amendment Effective Date shall be considered
an “Incremental Revolving Facility Closing Date” and this Fifth Amendment shall be considered an “Incremental Revolving Facility Amendment”. 

C. Each Revolving Lender immediately prior to the Fifth Amendment Effective Date (the “Existing Revolving Lenders”) will
automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender, and each such 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a
portion of such Existing Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to the 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of
participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such 2016 Revolving Commitment
Increase Lender) will equal such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage. On the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, each 2016 Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will promptly purchase (for cash at face value) assignments of portions of
outstanding existing Revolving Loans of the Existing Revolving Lenders so that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their then-current Applicable Percentages. Any such assignments
shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04; provided that the parties hereto hereby consent to such assignments and the minimum assignment amounts and processing and recordation fee set forth in
Section 9.04(b) shall not apply thereto. On the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Existing Revolving Lenders, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amounts of their
existing Revolving Loans. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in the Credit Agreement shall not apply to the
transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 
 II. Additional Amendments to Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section IV.E hereof, on and as of the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 

A. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the following definitions in the proper alphabetical order: 

““Fifth Amendment” means the Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2016, by and among the
Borrower, Holdings, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders party thereto.” 
 ““Fifth Amendment Effective Date”
means July 1, 2016.” 
 B. Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and restating the definition of
“Revolving Commitment” set forth therein in its entirety as follows: 
 ““Revolving Commitment” means, with
respect to each Lender, the commitment, if any, of such Lender to make Revolving Loans and to acquire participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans hereunder, expressed as an amount representing the maximum possible aggregate amount of
such Lender’s Revolving Exposure hereunder, as such commitment may be (a) reduced from time to time pursuant to 

  
 -3- 








 
Section 2.08, (b) reduced or increased from time to time pursuant to (i) assignments by or to such Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption or (ii) a Refinancing

by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Loan Party. This Fifth Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party

fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (iii) implied
covenants of good faith and fair dealing.

document binding upon such Loan Party or its property or to which such Loan Party or its property is subject, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by such Loan Party, except for violations, defaults or the creation of
such rights that could not 

  
 -4- 








 
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (d) will not violate any Requirements of Law, except for violations that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any property of such Loan Party, except Liens created by the Security Documents and Liens permitted under the Loan Documents.
