      NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, and subject to
        the conditions set forth herein, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

       

      SECTION 1.  Interpretation.

       

      (a) Capitalized terms used and not defined herein (including in the recitals hereto) shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. The rules of interpretation set forth in
        Section 1.03 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

       

      SECTION 2.   Amendments to the Credit Agreement.  Effective as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by deleting the stricken text (indicated
        textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and adding the underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: underlined text) as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

       

      SECTION 3.   Benchmark Replacement.  In accordance with the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” as amended pursuant to this Amendment, each Tranche A Term Lender and each
        Revolving Lender party hereto hereby consents to the incorporation of a Benchmark Replacement Adjustment of 0.10% per annum with respect to each Interest Period and Available Tenor as set forth in the Fourth Amendment to be dated on or about the
        date hereof, relating to the Credit Agreement.

       

      SECTION 4.  Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower (with respect to itself and, where applicable, the Restricted Subsidiaries) represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and
        to the Lenders on and as of the Third Amendment Effective Date that:

       

      
        
          


        2

      

      
      (a) this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby are within each Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other
        organizational and, if required, stockholder or other equityholder action;

       

      (b) this Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and each other Loan Party and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person, enforceable
        against such Person in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity,
        regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;

       

      (c) the representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of representations and warranties qualified
        as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects), except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty is true and correct in all material
        respects (or in all respects, as applicable) as of such earlier date (it being understood and agreed that the reference in Section 3.15 of the Credit Agreement to “the Closing Date, after giving effect to the Transactions” shall be deemed to refer
        instead to “the Third Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to the transactions to be consummated on the Third Amendment Effective Date”); and

       

      (d) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

       

      SECTION 5.   Effectiveness.  This Amendment shall become effective as of the date first above written (the “Third Amendment Effective Date”) upon satisfaction of the following
        conditions:

       

      (a) the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Amendment that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the Borrower, each other Loan Party and Lenders collectively
        constituting the Required Lenders and the Required Covenant Lenders; provided that the provisions of Section 3 hereof shall be of no effect unless the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Amendment that, when taken
        together, bear the signatures of each Tranche A Term Lender and each Revolving Lender;

       

      (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received all fees and other amounts due and payable on or prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, including pursuant to Section 10 hereof, to the extent
        invoiced at least three Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (or such shorter period agreed by the Borrower in its sole discretion), reimbursement or payment of all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses
        (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) required to be reimbursed or paid by any Loan Party hereunder, under any other Loan Document or under any other agreement entered into by any of the Lead Arrangers or the Administrative Agent,
        on the one hand, and any of the Loan Parties, on the other hand;

       

      

      
        
          


        3

      

      (c) (i) the Administrative Agent shall have received, at least three Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory
        authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act, that has been requested at least 10 Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date and
        (ii) to the extent the Borrower qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation and any Lender has requested in a written notice to the Borrower at least 10 Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date
        a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to the Borrower, such Lender shall have received such Beneficial Ownership Certification with respect to the Borrower at least three Business Days prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date (provided
        that, upon the execution and delivery by such Lender of its signature page to this Amendment, the conditions set forth in this clause (v) shall be deemed to be satisfied); and

       

      (d) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate, dated the Third Amendment Effective Date and signed by a Financial Officer or the President or a Vice President of the Borrower,
        confirming accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.

       

      SECTION 6.  Effects on Loan Documents; No Novation.  (a) Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment (i) shall not by implication or
        otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) shall not
        alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in
        full force and effect.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle the Borrower or any other Loan Party to any future consent to, or waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or
        agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances.  After the Third Amendment Effective Date, any reference in the Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement shall mean the Credit Agreement as
        modified hereby.  This Amendment shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

       

      (a) This Amendment shall not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Credit Agreement or discharge or release the priority of any Security Document.  Nothing
        herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the Obligations outstanding under the Credit Agreement or any Security Document, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby.  Nothing expressed or
        implied in this Amendment or any other document contemplated hereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of any Loan Party under any Loan Document from any of its obligations and liabilities thereunder.

       

      
        
          


        4

      

      SECTION 7.   Miscellaneous.  The provisions of Sections 9.09, 9.10 and 9.11 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis
          mutandis.

       

      SECTION 8.  Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of
        which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Amendment and/or any document to be signed in connection with this Amendment
        and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed
        signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be.

       

      SECTION 9.  Reaffirmation.  Each of the Loan Parties hereby (a) reaffirms its obligations under the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party, in each case as
        modified by this Amendment, (b) reaffirms all Liens on the Collateral which have been granted by it in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) pursuant to the Loan Documents and (c) acknowledges and agrees that
        the guarantees of the Loan Parties and the grants of security interests by the Loan Parties contained in the Collateral Agreement and the other Security Documents are, and shall remain, in full force and effect in respect of, and to secure, the
        Obligations.

       

      SECTION 10.  Consent Fee.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender and Tranche A Term Lender that shall have executed and
        irrevocably delivered a signature page to this Amendment to the Administrative Agent on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on December 6, 2022, a consent fee in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving
        Commitment (whether drawn or undrawn) and the Tranche A Term Loans of such Lender on the Third Amendment Effective Date.

                JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent.

                to $400,000,000 and (b) the Revolving Lenders extend credit in the form of Revolving Loans and the Issuing Banks issue Letters of Credit, in each case at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period to the
                Borrower such that the Aggregate Revolving Exposure will not exceed $500,000,000 at any time.  The Net Proceeds of the Tranche A Term Facility, together with the proceeds of the Revolving Loans made on the Closing Date and cash on hand of
                the Borrower, will be used on the Closing Date to (i) refinance all outstanding obligations of the Borrower under the Borrower’s (x) Credit Agreement dated as of January 6, 2015, (y) Credit Agreement dated as of January 5, 2016 and (z)
                Credit Agreement dated as of August 30, 2017, including fees, breakage costs and cost reimbursements, (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the foregoing transactions and (iii) for general corporate purposes. The proceeds of the Revolving
                Loans made after the Closing Date will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes (including acquisitions and other Investments and Restricted Payments permitted by this Agreement) of the Borrower and the Restricted
                Subsidiaries.  Letters of Credit will be used by the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries for general corporate purposes.

               

              The Lenders are willing to extend such credit to the Borrower, and the Issuing Banks are willing to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, on the terms and subject to the

                reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides
                that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of
                administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

                      any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and
                      applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith and (ii) notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms

                    SECTION 1.06. Limited Condition Transaction.  (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when calculating any applicable
                      financial ratio or test or determining other compliance with this Agreement (including the determination of compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing
                      or would result therefrom) in connection with the consummation of a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio and determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or
                      would result therefrom or other applicable covenant shall, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), be deemed to be
                      (i) in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction described in clause (i) of the definition thereof, the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into and (ii) in the case of a Limited
                      Condition Transaction described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof, the date of giving of the irrevocable notice of redemption therefor (the “LCT Test Date”) and if, after such financial ratios and tests and other
                      provisions are measured on a Pro Forma Basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of
                      proceeds thereof) as if they occurred at the beginning of the applicable period being used to calculate such financial ratio ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in
                      compliance with such ratios and provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that at the option of the Borrower, the relevant ratios and baskets may be recalculated at the time of
                      consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction.  For the avoidance of doubt, (x) if any of such financial ratios or tests are exceeded (or, with respect to the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio or the Consolidated Adjusted
                      Interest Coverage Ratio, not reached) as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or test (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or otherwise) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transaction,
                      such financial ratios and tests and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded (or, with respect to the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio or the Consolidated Adjusted Interest Coverage Ratio, not reached) as a result
                      of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (y) such financial ratios and tests and other provisions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of
                      such Limited Condition Transaction or related transaction.  For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any
                      financial ratio or test (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any ratio contained in Sections 6.12 or 6.13) or basket availability with respect to any Limited Condition Transaction on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and
                      prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or, in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction described in clause (i) thereof, the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited
                      Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such subsequent transaction is permitted under this Agreement or any Loan Document, any
                      such ratio, test or basket shall be required to comply with any such ratio, test or basket on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence
                      of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated until such time as the applicable Limited Condition Transaction has actually closed or the definitive agreement with respect thereto has been terminated or
                      expires.

                     

                  

                  
                    (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Indebtedness or Liens incurred in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    72

                  

                  
                    compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any tests based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Interest Expense, Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense,
                      the First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA or Adjusted Consolidated EBITDA) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially
                      concurrently with any Indebtedness or Liens incurred in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test (including any tests based on the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio,
                      Consolidated Interest Expense, Adjusted Consolidated Interest Expense, the First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA or Adjusted Consolidated
                      EBITDA) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the incurrence of the
                      Incurrence-Based Amounts.

                     

                    SECTION 1.07. Divisions. For all purposes under this Agreement, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a
                      different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original
                      Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such
                      time.

                     

                    SECTION 1.08. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification.  The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or a Permitted Foreign Currency may be derived from an interest
                      rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform.  Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such
                      interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent
                      the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market.  In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer
                      persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank
                      offered rate.  As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on
                      Eurocurrency Loans.  In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate.  Upon
                      the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, a Term ESTR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.14(b) and (c) provide the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. 
                      The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not
                      warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO
                      Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.14(b) or (c),
                      whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, a Term ESTR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant
                      to Section 2.14(d)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    73

                  

                  
                    reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its
                      discontinuance or unavailability.

                     

                    SECTION 1.09. Permitted Foreign Currency Calculations.  (a) For purposes of determining the Dollar Equivalent of any Loan or Letter of Credit denominated in a Permitted
                      Foreign Currency or any related amount, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Exchange Rate as of each applicable Exchange Rate Date with respect to each Permitted Foreign Currency in which any requested or outstanding Loan or
                      Letter of Credit is denominated and shall apply such Exchange Rates to determine such amount (in each case after giving effect to any Loan to be made or repaid or Letter of Credit issued on or prior to the applicable date for such
                      calculation), and each such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such Loan or Letter of Credit until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this paragraph; provided that the Administrative Agent shall in addition
                      determine the Dollar Equivalent of any Letter of Credit denominated in any Permitted Foreign Currency as provided in Sections 2.05(e) and 2.05(n).

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  For purposes of any determination under Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.04 or 6.05 or under Article VII, all amounts incurred, outstanding or proposed to be incurred or outstanding in
                      currencies other than Dollars shall be translated into the Dollar Equivalent at the currency exchange rates in effect on the date of such determination (with such currency exchange rates being determined by the Borrower in good
                      faith); provided that no Default shall arise as a result of any limitation set forth in Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.04 or 6.05 being exceeded solely as a result of changes in currency exchange rates from the currency exchange rates
                      applicable at the time or times the applicable transaction was initially consummated in reliance on the applicable exception to the limitation set forth in such Section.

                    SECTION 2.01. Commitments.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) each Tranche A Term Lender agrees to make a Tranche A Term Loan denominated in
                      Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not exceeding its Tranche A Term Commitment and (b) each Revolving Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars or a Permitted Foreign Currency to the
                      Borrower from time to time, in each case during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or the
                      Aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Revolving Commitment.  Tranche A Term Loans may be ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as further provided herein.  Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions
                      set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.  Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

                     

                    SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings.  (a)  Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in
                      accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the
                      Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    74

                  

                  (b) Subject to Section 2.16, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith.  Each Lender at its option
                    may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan
                    advanced to it in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

                   

                  (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and
                    not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that a Eurocurrency Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurocurrency Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing.  At
                    the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum.  Borrowings of more than one Type and
                    Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not be more than a total of ten Eurocurrency Borrowings at any time outstanding unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees.  Notwithstanding anything to
                    the contrary herein, an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unfunded balance of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as
                    contemplated by Section 2.05(e).

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.03       Requests for Borrowings.  To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by submitting a Borrowing
                      Request (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City
                      time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable (provided that the Borrowing Request in connection
                      with any acquisition or other investment permitted under Section 6.04 may be conditioned on the closing of such acquisition or other investment, as applicable) and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the
                      Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower.  Each such Borrowing Request shall specify the following information (to the extent applicable, in compliance with Sections 2.01 and
                      2.02):

                            (ii)   the currency and the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

                             

                            

                          

                        

                      

                    

                    
                      
                        
                          (iii)   the requested date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

                           

                          

                        

                      

                      
                        
                          (iv)  whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

                           

                          

                        

                      

                      
                        
                          (v)  in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of
                            the term “Interest Period”;

                           

                          

                        

                      

                      
                        (vi)  the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06(a), or, if
                          the Borrowing is being requested to finance the reimbursement of an LC

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          75

                        

                      

                    

                  

                  
                    Disbursement in accordance with Section 2.05(e), the identity of the Issuing Bank that made such LC Disbursement; and

                  

                  
                    
                      
                        

                        

                        
                          (vii) that as of such date Sections 4.02(a) and 4.02(b) are satisfied.

                        

                      

                    

                  

                   

                  

                  If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then, if the specified currency of such Borrowing is (a) Dollars, the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing, and (b) Euros or Sterling, the
                    requested Borrowing shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing.  If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
                    duration.  If no currency is specified with respect to any requested Revolving Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected Dollars. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the
                    Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.04.   [Reserved].

                     

                    SECTION 2.05.   Letters of Credit.  (a)  General.  Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request (and each Issuing Bank shall
                      issue) Letters of Credit for the Borrower’s own account (or for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary so long as such Issuing Bank has completed its customary “know your client” procedures with respect to such Subsidiary), in each
                      case, denominated in Dollars or any Permitted Foreign Currency and in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability
                      Period.  The Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Subsidiary as provided above, the Borrower will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of LC
                      Disbursements, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of fees due under Section 2.12(b)  in respect thereof to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything
                      contained in any letter of credit application or other agreement (other than this Agreement or any Security Document) submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of
                      Credit, (i) all provisions of such letter of credit application or other agreement purporting to grant Liens in favor of such Issuing Bank to secure obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be disregarded, it being agreed
                      that such obligations shall be secured to the extent provided in this Agreement and in the Security Documents, and (ii) in the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions
                      of such letter of credit application or such other agreement, as applicable, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. On the Closing Date (or on the date specified in the relevant notice to the Administrative Agent),
                      each Existing Letter of Credit shall, without any further action by any Person, be deemed to have been issued as a Letter of Credit hereunder (without any breakage or transfer charges in connection therewith) and shall for all
                      purposes hereof (including paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section) be treated as and constitute a Letter of Credit.

                    

                    

                  

                  (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions.  To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment, renewal or extension of an
                    outstanding Letter of Credit (other than any automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been
                    approved by such Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of
                    Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the requested

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    76

                  

                  date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the
                    currency and amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be requested by the applicable Issuing Bank as necessary to enable such Issuing Bank to prepare, amend,
                    renew or extend such Letter of Credit.  If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of
                    Credit.  An Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue any trade Letter of Credit (unless it otherwise consents) and no Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended unless (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or
                    extension of any Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the sum of the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Sublimit, (ii)
                    the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, (iii) the face amount of the Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank (unless
                    it otherwise agrees) and (iv) following the effectiveness of any Maturity Date Extension Request with respect to the Revolving Commitments of any Class, the LC Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit of such Class having an
                    expiration date after the fifth Business Day prior to the applicable Existing Maturity Date shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class of the Consenting Lenders extended pursuant to Section 2.22.  Each Issuing
                    Bank agrees that it shall not permit any issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit to occur unless it shall give to the Administrative Agent written notice thereof as required under paragraph (l) of this Section.
                    Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit if (x) any law applicable to such Issuing Bank from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such
                    Issuing Bank shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or (y) such issuance shall violate such Issuing Bank’s internal policies that are applicable to letters of credit generally.

                   

                  (c)    Expiration Date.  Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance
                    of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (unless such Letters of Credit
                    have been cash collateralized or backstopped on or prior to such fifth Business Day pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank); provided that (x) any Letter of Credit may, upon the request
                    of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional periods (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (unless such Letters of
                    Credit have been cash collateralized or backstopped on or prior to such fifth Business Day pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank)) unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary
                    thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed and (y) clause (c)(i) above shall not apply to a Letter of Credit if such long-dated Letter of Credit is consented to
                    by the applicable Issuing Bank. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Revolving Maturity Date in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments shall be extended pursuant to Section 2.22, “Revolving Maturity Date” as referenced in this
                    paragraph shall refer, with respect to the Class of Letters of Credit associated with such Class of Revolving Commitments, to the Revolving Maturity Date in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments as extended pursuant to Section
                    2.22; provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including Section 2.22 hereof) or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Revolving Maturity Date, as such term is used in reference to any Issuing Bank or
                    any Letter of Credit issued thereby, may not be extended with respect to any Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such Issuing Bank.

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    77

                  

                  (d)  Participations.   By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of
                    the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank that is the issuer of such Letter of Credit hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such
                    Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby
                    absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed
                    by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  Such payment by the Revolving Lenders shall be made (i) if the
                    currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment shall be in Dollars, then in Dollars and (ii) subject to paragraph (n) of this Section, if the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement or reimbursement shall be a
                    Permitted Foreign Currency, then in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such LC Disbursement or reimbursement payment, calculated by the Administrative Agent using the Exchange Rate on the applicable LC Participation
                    Calculation Date. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
                    circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall
                    be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.  Each Revolving Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending, renewing or extending any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall
                    be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of the Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02 unless, at least one Business Day prior to the time such Letter of Credit is
                    issued, amended, renewed or extended (or, in the case of an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, at least one Business Day prior to the time by which the election not to extend must be made by the
                    applicable Issuing Bank), the Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders shall have notified the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in writing that, as a result of one or more events or circumstances
                    described in such notice, one or more of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02(a) or 4.02(b) would not be satisfied if such Letter of Credit were then issued, amended, renewed or extended (it being understood and agreed
                    that, in the event any Issuing Bank shall have received any such notice, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit until and unless it shall be satisfied that the events and
                    circumstances described in such notice shall have been cured or otherwise shall have ceased to exist).

                   

                  (e)     Reimbursement.  If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to
                    the Administrative Agent an amount in the currency of such LC Disbursement equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided
                    that, in the case of an LC Disbursement denominated in Dollars in an amount equal to or in excess of $500,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such
                    payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing.  If
                    the Borrower fails to reimburse any LC Disbursement by the time specified above in this paragraph, the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving
                    Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the currency and amount of the payment then due from the Borrower

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    78

                  

                  in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof.  Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its
                    Applicable Percentage of the amount then due from the Borrower in the currency of the applicable LC Disbursement, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis,
                    to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders under this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the applicable Revolving Lenders.  Promptly
                    following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders
                    have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.  Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to
                    reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of an ABR Revolving Borrowing as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC
                    Disbursement.

                   

                  (f)  Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and
                    irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this
                    Agreement, or any term or provision thereof or hereof, (ii) 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, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever,
                    whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.  None of the
                    Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit, any payment or failure
                    to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), 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 applicable Issuing
                    Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential 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 such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and 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 an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a
                    court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised 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, an 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, and any such acceptance or refusal shall be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct.

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    79

                  

                  (g)  Disbursement Procedures.  Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter
                    of Credit.  Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing (via hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic imaging) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or
                    will make an 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 such Issuing Bank and the applicable Revolving Lenders with
                    respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

                   

                  (h)  Interim Interest.  If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC
                    Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement in full, at (i) in
                    the case of any LC Disbursement denominated in Dollars, and at all times following the conversion to Dollars of the reimbursement obligation with respect to any LC Disbursement made in Euro or Sterling pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
                    Section, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) in the case of an LC Disbursement denominated in any other Permitted Foreign Currency, at all times prior to the conversion of the reimbursement obligation
                    with respect thereto to Dollars pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, at a rate per annum determined by the applicable Issuing Bank (which determination will be conclusive absent manifest error) to represent its cost of funds plus
                    the Applicable Rate used to determine interest applicable to LIBOR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement in full when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section
                    2.13(c) shall apply.  Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving
                    Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which
                    the Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.

                   

                  (i)  Cash Collateralization.  If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or
                    the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral 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 Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash (in the currency of each applicable Letter of Credit) equal to the LC Exposure of the Revolving
                    Lenders with respect to the Letters of Credit issued on behalf of the Borrower as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective
                    immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other 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
                    7.01.  The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b), 2.20(c) or 2.22(c).  Each 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.  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 or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account.  Notwithstanding the terms of any Security Document, moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    80

                  

                  Agent to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not 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 (but subject to (i) the consent of a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders (treating the Classes of Revolving Commitments and
                    Revolving Loans as one Class) and (ii) in the case of any such application at a time when any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the
                    aggregate LC Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders), the consent of each Issuing Bank), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.  If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral
                    hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.  If
                    the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower to the extent that, after giving effect to
                    such return, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure in respect of the Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans would not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  If the Borrower is
                    required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.20(c), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no
                    Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Default shall have
                    occurred and be continuing

                   

                  (j)   Designation of Additional Issuing Banks.  The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with notice to the Administrative Agent, designate as additional Issuing
                    Banks one or more Revolving Lenders, that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below.  The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form
                    and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and shall specify the LC Commitment of such Issuing Bank, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Revolving Lender and,
                    from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to
                    include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder.

                   

                  (k)   Resignation or Termination of an Issuing Bank.  Any Issuing Bank may resign as a “Issuing Bank” hereunder upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative
                    Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant Issuing Bank shall have identified a successor Issuing Bank reasonably
                    acceptable to the Borrower willing to accept its appointment as successor Issuing Bank and the effectiveness of such resignation shall be conditioned upon such successor assuming the rights and duties of the Issuing Bank.  In the event
                    of any such resignation as Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such
                    successor shall affect the resignation of the resigning Issuing Bank except as expressly provided above.  The Borrower may terminate the appointment of any Issuing Bank as an “Issuing Bank” hereunder by providing a written notice
                    thereof to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent.  Any such termination shall become effective upon the earlier of (i) such Issuing Bank acknowledging receipt of such notice and (ii) the third Business Day following
                    the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and unless the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (or its Affiliates) shall have been
                    reduced to zero.  At

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    81

                  

                  the time any such resignation or termination shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section
                    2.12(b).  Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such resignation or termination, the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement
                    with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or termination, but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit.

                   

                  (l)  Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations
                    set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by
                    such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews
                    or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance,
                    amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date, amount and currency of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any
                    Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the currency and amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other
                    Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

                   

                  (m)  LC Exposure Determination.  For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides
                    for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect
                    at the time of determination.

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings.  (a)  Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
                      available funds by 3:00 p.m., Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by
                      promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement
                      of an LC Disbursement denominated in Dollars as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section
                      2.05(e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.

                    

                    

                  

                  (b)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative
                    Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption and
                    in its sole discretion, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and
                    the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    82

                  

                  amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (A) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, the greater
                    of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (B) in the case of Loans denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency, the Overnight Eurocurrency
                    Rate or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to (A) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, ABR Loans of the applicable Class and (B) in the case of Loans denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency, the
                    interest rate applicable to the subject Loan pursuant to Section 2.13.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
                    remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.07.   Interest Elections.  (a)  Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03 and,
                      in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or designated by Section 2.03.  Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a
                      different Type (provided that Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency may not be converted into ABR Borrowings but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan) or to continue such
                      Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section.  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 the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election in writing by the time that a Borrowing Request would be
                      required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable
                      and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower.

                     

                  

                  (c)  Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

                   

                  
                    (i)  the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the
                      portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      (ii)   the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

                       

                      

                    

                  

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

                    

                     

                    

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    83

                  

                  
                    
                       (iv)  if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest
                        Period”. 

                       

                      

                    

                  

                  If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s
                    duration.

                   

                  (d)  Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of such Lender’s
                    portion of each resulting Borrowing.

                   

                  
                    (e)  If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then,
                      unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a
                      Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency, such Borrowing shall be continued as a Borrowing of the applicable Type for an Interest Period of one month.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an
                      Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Borrower, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of a
                      Majority in Interest of the Lenders of any Class has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is
                      continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR
                      Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency shall be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of
                      one month’s duration.

                     

                  

                  
                    SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

                      (a)  Unless previously terminated, (i) the Tranche A Term Commitments shall automatically terminate and be reduced to $0 on the Closing Date upon the making of the Tranche A Term Loans and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall
                      automatically terminate and be reduced to $0 on the Revolving Maturity Date.

                     

                  

                  (b)  The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Commitments
                    of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment
                    of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment.

                   

                  
                    (c)  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior
                      to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class
                      of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments delivered under this paragraph may
                      state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    84

                  

                  
                    notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Any termination or reduction of the
                      Commitments of any Class shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

                    

                    

                  

                  
                    SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.  (a)  The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
                      Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan made by such Revolving Lender to the Borrower on the Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Tranche A Term Lender
                      the then unpaid principal amount of each Tranche A Term Loan made by such Tranche A Term Lender to the Borrower as provided in Section 2.10.

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made
                      by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be prima facie
                      evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of Loans made to the Borrower, LC Disbursements, interest and fees due or accrued, in each case, with respect to the Borrower hereunder; provided
                      that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of
                      this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the entries made pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section
                      shall control.

                    

                    

                  

                  (c)  The Administrative Agent shall, in connection with maintenance of the Register in accordance with Section 9.04(b)(iv) maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of
                    each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal, premium, interest or fees due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender
                    hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

                   

                  (d)  Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the Borrower of such Loans shall prepare, execute and deliver to such
                    Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note
                    and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered
                    note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

                  

                  

                  
                    SECTION 2.10.  Amortization of Tranche A Term Loans.  (a)  Subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, the Borrower shall repay to the
                      Administrative Agent, for the account of each Tranche A Term Lender, Tranche A Term Borrowings on each date set forth below in the aggregate principal amount set forth opposite such date (provided that if any such date is not a
                      Business Day, such payment shall be due on the immediately preceding Business Day):

                    Equivalent of any Loan or Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 1.09), the Borrower shall, within one Business Day, prepay its Revolving Borrowings (or, if no such Revolving Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an
                    account with the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.05(i)) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

                      percentage of such Net Proceeds such that such Indebtedness receives no greater than a ratable percentage of such Net Proceeds based upon the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans and such Indebtedness then outstanding) (such
                      Net Proceeds amount, as reduced in accordance with the proviso to this paragraph (c), the “Net Proceeds Prepayment Amount”); provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of
                      the term “Prepayment Event” and so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(b) or, solely with respect to the Borrower, Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) has occurred and be continuing if the Borrower shall, on or prior to the
                      date of the required prepayment, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that the Borrower intends to cause the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such
                      certificate) to be applied within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds to be reinvested in the business of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, or to enter into an acquisition permitted by this Agreement, then no
                      prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net
                      Proceeds that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period (or within a period of 180 days thereafter if by the end of such initial 365-day period the Borrower or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries shall have committed
                      to invest such proceeds), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied.

                     

                  

                  (d)  Following the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, the Borrower shall prepay Term Borrowings in an aggregate amount
                    equal to the Specified ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year (such amount, as reduced in accordance with the provisos to this paragraph (d), the “ECF Sweep Amount”); provided that such amount shall be
                    reduced by the aggregate amount of prepayments of Term Borrowings and Revolving Borrowings (but only to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the corresponding Commitment) made pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section and
                    the aggregate amount of voluntary prepayments or repurchases of other Indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis to the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations, in each case, during such fiscal
                    year (and, at the Borrower’s option (and without deducting such amounts against the subsequent fiscal year’s prepayment computation pursuant to this paragraph (d)), after the end of such fiscal year but prior to the date on which the
                    prepayment pursuant to this Section for such fiscal year is required to have been made); provided further that, in the case of any Term Loan (or other relevant Indebtedness) prepaid in connection with the purchase thereof
                    by a Purchasing Borrower Party pursuant to Section 9.04(e) at a discount to par (or the below-par purchase or prepayment of any other relevant Indebtedness), the prepayment required pursuant to this Section shall be reduced, with
                    respect to the prepayment of such Term Loan (or other Indebtedness), only by the actual amount of cash paid to the applicable Lender or Lenders (or other lender(s) or holder(s)) in connection with such purchase.  Each prepayment
                    pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date on which financial statements are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated (and in any event not
                    later than the last day on which such financial statements may be delivered in compliance with such Section).

                   

                  (e)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of Section 2.11(c) or (d), (A) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event by or Excess Cash Flow of a Foreign
                    Subsidiary of the Borrower giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) (a “Foreign Prepayment Event”) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the Borrower, the portion of
                    such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    89

                  

                  not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or (d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained
                    by such Subsidiary, and once the Borrower has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, then the amount of such Net Proceeds or
                    Excess Cash Flow will be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved if such amounts were repatriated) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to
                    Section 2.11(c) or (d), as applicable, (B) to the extent that and for so long as the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would
                    have a material adverse tax or cost consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the amount of Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to
                    be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary; provided that when the Borrower determines in good faith that
                    repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would no longer have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such Net Proceeds or
                    Excess Cash Flow shall be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against if such amounts were repatriated) to the repayment of the Term Loans
                    pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable, and (C) to the extent that and for so long as the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event
                    or Excess Cash Flow would give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Subsidiary, the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to
                    repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary.

                   

                  (f)  Prior to any optional prepayment of Borrowings under this Section, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the
                    notice of such prepayment delivered pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section.  In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, the aggregate
                    amount of such prepayment shall be allocated among the Term Borrowings of each such Class (including the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans and the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans and, to the extent provided in the Incremental Facility
                    Amendment or Refinancing Facility Agreement for any Class of other Incremental Term Loans or Refinancing Term Loans, respectively, the Borrowings of such Class) pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings
                    of each such Class; provided that any Term Lender (including each Incremental Tranche B Term Lender and Refinancing Tranche B Term Lender and, to the extent provided in the Incremental Facility Amendment or Refinancing Facility
                    Agreement for any Class of other Incremental Term Loans or Refinancing Term Loans, any Lender that holds Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing (via hand delivery, facsimile or other
                    electronic imaging) at least one Business Day prior to the required prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Loans pursuant to this Section (other than (x) an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a)
                    of this Section or (y) a mandatory prepayment triggered by an event described in clause (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, neither of which may be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that
                    would have been applied to prepay such Loans may be retained by the Borrower.

                   

                  (g)  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (via hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic imaging) of any optional prepayment  and, to the extent

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    90

                  

                  practicable, any mandatory prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of a prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii)
                    in the case of a prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal
                    amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that (A) if a notice of optional prepayment is
                    given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section
                    2.08 and (B) a notice of prepayment of Term Borrowings pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be
                    revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise
                    the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof.  Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02,
                    except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued
                    interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

                   

                  (h)  In the event that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the First Refinancing Facility Agreement Effective Date, the Borrower (A) prepays, repays, refinances,
                    substitutes or replaces any Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment made as a result of a Prepayment Event described in clause (c) thereof that
                    constitutes a Repricing Transaction) or (B) effects any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable
                    account of each applicable Refinancing Tranche B Term Lender, (I) in the case of clause (A), a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans so prepaid, repaid, refinanced,
                    substituted or replaced and (II) in the case of clause (B), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans that are the subject of such Repricing Transaction outstanding
                    immediately prior to such amendment. If, on or prior to the date that is six months after the First Refinancing Facility Agreement Effective Date, all or any portion of the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans held by any Refinancing
                    Tranche B Term Lender are prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced pursuant to Section 2.19 as a result of, or in connection with, such Refinancing Tranche B Term Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver,
                    consent, modification or amendment in connection with a Repricing Transaction, such prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution or replacement will be made at 101% of the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted
                    or replaced. All such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.12.  Fees.  (a)  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) in
                      accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments for the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate (or are otherwise reduced to zero), a
                      commitment fee which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unfunded amount of the aggregate Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender.  Such accrued commitment fees accrued through and including the last day of
                      March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable in arrears on the fifteenth day following

                  

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    91

                  

                  
                    such last day and on the date on which all the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date. For purposes of computing commitment fees, a Revolving
                      Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender.

                     

                  

                  (b)  The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit,
                    which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate then used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s aggregate LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof
                    attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which all of such Lender’s Revolving Commitments terminate and the date on which such Lender
                    ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing
                    Bank (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of all the Revolving Commitments and the date
                    on which there ceases to be any such LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.  Participation
                    fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the fifteenth day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the
                    Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which all the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which all the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable
                    on demand.  Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand.

                   

                  (c)  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the
                    Administrative Agent.

                   

                  (d)  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Arranger and Lender, such other fees as shall have been separately
                    agreed upon in writing (including pursuant to the Fee Letter and including upfront fees, which may be in the form of original issues discounts to the Loans) in the amounts and at the times so specified.

                   

                  (e)  All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees
                    payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Revolving Lenders entitled thereto.  Fees paid hereunder shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

                   

                  
                    (f)  All commitment fees, participation fees, fronting fees and other fees payable pursuant to this Section and all interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days,
                      except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate and (ii) interest computed for any Borrowing denominated in Sterling shall, in each case, be
                      computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    92

                  

                  SECTION 2.13.  Interest.  (a)  The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

                  
                     

                  

                  (b)  The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable
                    Rate.

                   

                  (c)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated
                    maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing, such overdue amount shall bear interest, on and from such date, at a rate per annum equal to
                    (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.00% per annum
                    plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this paragraph (c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment
                    and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender.

                   

                  (d)  Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of a Revolving Loan of any Class, upon termination of the
                    Revolving Commitments of such Class; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment
                    of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any
                    conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

                   

                  SECTION 2.14.  Alternate Rate of Interest.

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    (a)  Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.14, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of any Class:

                     

                  

                  
                    (i)  the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate
                      and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or the LIBO Rate, as the case may be, for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

                     

                  

                  (ii)  the Administrative Agent is advised by a Majority in Interest of the Lenders of such Class that Adjusted Eurocurrency
                    Rate or the LIBO Rate as the case may be, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

                   

                  
                    then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders of such Class by telephone, facsimile or other electronic imaging as promptly as practicable
                      thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders of such Class that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) in the case of Borrowings denominated

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    93

                  

                  
                    in Dollars, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing of such Class to, or continuation of any Borrowing of such Class as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be
                      ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be continued as an ABR Borrowing and (B) any Borrowing Request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of such Class shall be made as a request for an ABR Borrowing, and (ii) in the case of Borrowings
                      denominated in Euros or Sterling, until the Administrative Agent notifies such Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Dollars, then
                      on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan
                      denominated in Dollars on such day and (ii) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in any Permitted Foreign Currency, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding
                      Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Eurocurrency
                      Loan, such Eurocurrency Loan denominated in any Permitted Foreign Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to
                      Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related
                      Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of
                      “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark
                      settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of
                      “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New
                      York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan
                      Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each Class.

                     

                  

                  (c)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, (x) with respect to a Loan denominated in Dollars,
                    if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date or (y) with respect to a Loan denominated in Euros, if a Term ESTR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, as applicable, have occurred
                    prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of
                    such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (c) shall not be effective
                    unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice or a Term ESTR Notice, as applicable.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any (x) Term
                    SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event or (y) Term ESTR Notice after the occurrence of a Term ESTR Transition Event, and may do so in its sole discretion.

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    94

                  

                  (d)  In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes
                    from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent
                    of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

                   

                  (e)  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (ii)
                    the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the
                    commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a
                    tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its
                    or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

                   

                  (f)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the
                    then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR, Term ESTR or LIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as
                    selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such
                    Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and
                    (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an
                    announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such
                    time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

                   

                  (g)  Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of, conversion to
                    or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x)  the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing
                    denominated in dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans or (y) any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency shall be ineffective.  During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at
                    any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. 
                    Furthermore, if any Eurocurrency Loan in any Permitted Foreign Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable
                    to such Eurocurrency Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Permitted Foreign Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14, (i) if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day
                    of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    95

                  

                  next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day or (ii)
                    if such Eurocurrency Loan is denominated in any Permitted Foreign Currency, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at
                    the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Eurocurrency Loan, such Eurocurrency Loan denominated in any
                    Permitted Foreign Currency shall be deemed to be a Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

                   

                  SECTION 2.15.  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 such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuing Bank;

                     

                  

                  (ii)  impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other
                    than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

                   

                  (iii)  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;

                   

                  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, such 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, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of
                    such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank
                    or such other Recipient, as applicable, for such additional costs or expenses incurred or reduction suffered.

                   

                  (b)  If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
                    such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such 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 held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved
                    but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    96

                  

                  adequacy), then, from time to time upon the request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will
                    compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

                   

                  (c)  A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding
                    company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and the calculation thereof shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such
                    Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

                   

                  (d)  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s
                    right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than
                    180 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s
                    intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be
                    extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

                   

                  (e)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Lender or Issuing Bank shall demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction pursuant to this Section if (i) it
                    shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender or Issuing Bank to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements and (ii) such increased cost or reduction
                    is due to market disruption, unless such circumstances generally affect the banking market and when the Required Lenders have made such a request.

                   

                  SECTION 2.16.  Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period
                    applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay
                    any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (whether or not such notice may be revoked in accordance with the terms hereof) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last
                    day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or 9.02(c), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense
                    attributable to such event (excluding loss of profit).  In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the
                    amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not including the Applicable Rate
                    applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest
                    Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the
                    applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank market.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    97

                  

                  
                    detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and the reasons therefor, and showing the calculation thereof, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall
                      be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section will not apply to losses, costs
                      or expenses resulting from Taxes.

                     

                  

                  SECTION 2.17.  Taxes.  (a)  Payment Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other
                    Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the
                    deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to
                    the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding
                    has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding
                    been made.

                  
                     

                  

                  (b)  Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of
                    the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

                   

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

                   

                  (d)  Indemnification by the Loan Parties.  The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally 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 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)  Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes
                    attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes
                    attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case that are payable or paid
                    by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other 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

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    98

                  

                  shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any
                    other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

                   

                  (f)  Status of Lenders.  (i)  Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any other
                    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 Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), 2.17(f)(ii)(B) or 2.17(f)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
                    expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

                   

                  
                    (ii)  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

                     

                  

                  
                    (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 copies 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:

                   

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

                     

                  

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

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    99

                  

                  (3)  in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of
                    the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-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 871(h)(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
                    Form W-8BEN-E; or

                   

                  (4)  to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS
                    Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9 and/or another certification document 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 J-4 on behalf of each such direct or 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 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 this Agreement or any other 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, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause
                    (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

                   

                  Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    100

                  

                  promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

                   

                  (g)  Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
                    indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts paid 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 paragraph (plus any penalties, interest or other
                    charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, in no event
                    will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such indemnified party
                    would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any
                    other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

                   

                  (h)  Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the
                    replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Loan Documents.

                   

                  (i)  For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

                   

                  SECTION 2.18.  Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.  (a)  Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, the Borrower shall make each payment
                    required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time
                    expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without any
                    defense, setoff, recoupment or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of
                    calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to such account or accounts as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, except that payments required to be made directly to any Issuing Bank shall be so made, payments
                    pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein.  The Administrative Agent shall
                    distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof.  If any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be due on a day that
                    is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments
                    hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan or LC Disbursement shall, except as otherwise expressly

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    101

                  

                  
                    provided herein, be made in the currency of such Loan or LC Disbursement; all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document 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, towards payment of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, 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.

                   

                  (c)  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term
                    Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest
                    thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving
                    Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the aggregate amount 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 Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving
                    rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment
                    made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans  or participations in
                    LC Disbursements to any Eligible Assignee, to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof in a transaction that complies with the terms of Section 9.04(e) or (f), as applicable.  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 setoff 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)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
                    Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
                    assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as applicable, the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as
                    applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
                    distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

                   

                  (e)  If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(a) or (b), 2.17(e), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative
                    Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    102

                  

                  thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations in respect of such payment until all such unsatisfied obligations have been discharged
                    and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order
                    as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

                   

                  SECTION 2.19.  Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.  (a)  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any
                    Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a
                    different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
                    or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, 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 in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agree to pay all reasonable and documented assignment fees in connection with any
                    such designation or assignment and delegation.

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  If (i) any Lender has requested compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) a Loan Party is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any
                      Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) any Lender has become a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender has become a Declining Lender under Section 2.22, then the Borrower may, at its sole
                      expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its
                      interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or, in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a
                      Lender having become a Declining Lender, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender of the applicable Class with respect to which such Lender is a Declining Lender) to an
                      Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of
                      the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent
                      shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon,
                      accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including, if applicable, the prepayment fee pursuant to Section 2.11(h) (with such assignment being deemed to be an optional prepayment for purposes of
                      determining the applicability of such Section)) (if applicable, in each case only to the extent such amounts relate to its interest as a Lender of a particular Class) from the assignee (in the case of such principal and accrued
                      interest and fees (other than any fee payable pursuant to Section 2.11(h)) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts (including any fee payable pursuant to Section 2.11(h)), (C) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid
                      (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b), (D) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments
                      required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments and (E) such assignment and delegation does

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    103

                  

                  
                    not conflict with applicable law.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise (including
                      as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required
                      pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

                     

                  

                  SECTION 2.20.  Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following
                    provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

                  
                     

                  

                  (a)  commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

                   

                  (b)  the Commitments, Loans and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken
                    or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification
                    requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders adversely affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof;

                   

                  (c)  if any LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then:

                   

                  
                    (i)  [reserved];

                    

                    

                  

                  (ii)  all or any part of the LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with
                    respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Sections 2.05(e) and 2.05(f)) of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolver Lenders in accordance with
                    their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the sum of all non-Defaulting
                    Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Commitments and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Exposure of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided that, subject
                    to Section 9.18, no reallocation under this clause (ii) 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;

                   

                  (iii)  if the reallocation described in clause (ii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall
                    within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that has not been reallocated in accordance with the
                    procedures set forth in Section 2.05(i) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    104

                  

                  (iv)  if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (iii) above, the
                    Borrower shall not be required to pay participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is
                    cash collateralized;

                   

                  (v)  if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (ii) above, then the
                    fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation;

                   

                  (vi)  [reserved]; and

                   

                  (vii)  if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized
                    pursuant to clause (ii) or (iii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all participation fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s
                    LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent that
                    such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

                   

                  (d)  so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that the
                    related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be fully covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or cash collateral provided by the Borrower in accordance with
                    Section 2.20(c), and participating interests in any such issued, amended, renewed or extended Letter of Credit will be allocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(c)(ii) (and such
                    Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

                   

                  In the event that (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Revolving Lender Parent shall occur following the Closing Date and for so long as such Bankruptcy Event shall continue or (ii)
                    any applicable Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Revolving Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Issuing Bank shall not be
                    required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or the applicable Revolving Lender, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank to defease any risk to
                    it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

                   

                  In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each applicable Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused the
                    applicable Revolving Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Revolving Lender
                    shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the applicable Class of the other Revolving Lenders of such Class as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such
                    Revolving Loans of such Class in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such
                    Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided further that, except as

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    105

                  

                  otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from a Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising
                    from such Revolving Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

                   

                  
                    SECTION 2.21.  Incremental Extensions of Credit.  (a)  At any time and from time to time, commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the latest Maturity Date, subject
                      to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request (i) to add one or more additional
                      tranches of term loans denominated in Dollars (the “Incremental Term Loans”), (ii) one or more increases in the aggregate amount of any Class of Term Loans (each such increase, a “Incremental Term Loan Increase”), (iii)
                      to add one or more additional tranches of revolving commitments (each, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment”, and the loans made pursuant thereto, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”), (iv) solely during the Revolving
                      Availability Period, one or more increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and, together with the Incremental Term Loans, any Incremental Term Loan
                      Increase, any Alternative Incremental Facility Debt and the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Extensions of Credit”, the Incremental Revolving Commitments and the Incremental Revolving Loans, together with the
                      Incremental Term Loans, any Revolving Commitment Increase and any Incremental Term Loan Increase, the “Incremental Facilities”)) or (v) Alternative Incremental Facility Debt, in an aggregate principal amount of up to (i) the
                      sum of (x) the greater of $300,000,000 and 75.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower most recently ended on such date for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section
                      5.01(a) or (b), plus (y) the amount of any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans and any Alternative Incremental Facility Debt and permanent reductions in the amount of the Revolving Commitments, in each case, to the extent
                      not funded with long-term Indebtedness  (the sum of (x) and (y), the “Incremental Dollar Basket”), plus (ii) an additional amount if, after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional amount and the application
                      of the proceeds therefrom (assuming that the full amount of such Incremental Extensions of Credit being established on such date has been funded on such date), the First Lien Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 2.75 to 1.00
                      (assuming any such Incremental Revolving Commitments being established on such date are fully drawn and excluding any amounts incurred concurrently in reliance on the Incremental Dollar Basket) (it being understood that if the
                      proceeds of the relevant Incremental Extensions of Credit will be applied to finance a Limited Condition Transaction and the Borrower has made an LCT Election, compliance with the First Lien Leverage Ratio test prescribed above may be
                      determined as of the LCT Test Date in respect of such Limited  Condition Transaction on a Pro Forma Basis) (the “Incremental Ratio Basket”); provided that, at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of
                      each Incremental Facility Amendment, (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or shall result therefrom (or, in the event the proceeds of any Incremental Extension of Credit are used to finance any Limited Condition
                      Transaction permitted hereunder for which the Borrower has made an LCT Election, no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing as of the LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction), (B) the representations and warranties
                      of the Borrower and each other Loan Party, as applicable, set forth in the Loan Documents would be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of representations and warranties qualified as to materiality or Material
                      Adverse Effect, in all respects) on and as of the date of, and immediately after giving effect to, the incurrence of such Incremental Extension of Credit (or, if incurred in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, on the LCT
                      Test Date) (provided that in the event the proceeds of any Incremental Extension of Credit are used to finance any Investment permitted hereunder, such condition precedent related to the making and accuracy of such
                      representations and warranties may be waived or limited as agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Extension of Credit, without the consent of any other Lenders) and (C) the Borrower shall have delivered
                      a

                  

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    106

                  

                  
                    certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect set forth in clauses (A) and (B) above.  Each Class of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments, and each Revolving Commitment
                      Increase, shall be in an integral multiple of the $5,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000; provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such amount represents all the
                      remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Extensions of Credit set forth above.  

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  The Incremental Facilities (i) shall be documented pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment and rank pari passu in right of payment in respect of the
                      Collateral and with the Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments and the Initial Term Loans, (ii) shall not have a borrower other than the Borrower, (iii) shall not be secured by any property or assets of the Borrower or
                      any Restricted Subsidiary other than the Collateral or guaranteed by any Subsidiaries other than the Loan Parties and (iv) shall, except as otherwise set forth herein, be on terms and subject to conditions as agreed between the
                      Borrower and the Lenders providing the applicable Incremental Extension of Credit and to the extent such terms (other than with respect to maturity, amortization and pricing) are inconsistent with those governing the other Loans
                      hereunder, the covenants and events of default of any Incremental Facility shall be, when taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Lenders providing the applicable Incremental Facility than the terms governing the Loans hereunder
                      (as determined in good faith by the Borrower), unless (1) the Lenders receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms (it being understood to the extent that any covenant is added for the benefit of any Incremental Facility, no
                      consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such covenant is also added for the benefit of the Lenders), (2) such more restrictive terms only apply after the Latest Maturity Date or (3)
                      such terms shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; provided, further, that (A) any Incremental Tranche A Term Loan shall not have (1) a final maturity date earlier than the
                      Tranche A Term Maturity Date (but may have “springing maturity” provisions that are not more favorable to the lenders than those contained in this Agreement with respect to the Tranche A Term Loans) or (2) a weighted average life to
                      maturity that is shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then-remaining Tranche A Term Loans; provided that the requirements set forth in the foregoing clause (A) shall not apply to any Indebtedness
                      consisting of a customary bridge facility so long as such bridge facility converts into long-term Indebtedness that satisfies this clause (A); (B) any Incremental Tranche B Term Loan shall not have (1) a final maturity date earlier
                      than the Maturity Date for any then outstanding Term Loans (but may have “springing maturity” provisions that are not more favorable to the lenders than those contained in this Agreement with respect to the then outstanding Term
                      Loans) or (2) a weighted average life to maturity that is shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then-remaining Term Loans; provided that the requirements set forth in the foregoing clause (B)
                      shall not apply to any Indebtedness consisting of a customary bridge facility so long as such bridge facility converts into long-term Indebtedness that satisfies this clause (B); (C) any Incremental Revolving Commitment or any
                      Revolving Commitment Increase shall not have a maturity date that is earlier than the Revolving Maturity Date and shall not require any scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reductions prior to the Revolving Maturity Date and
                      (D) any Incremental Term Loan Increase shall be treated the same as the Class of Term Loans being increased (including with respect to maturity date thereof), shall be considered to be part of the Class of Term Loans being increased
                      and shall be on the same terms applicable to such Term Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and for the avoidance of doubt, any Incremental Facility Amendment may contain “most favored lender” and call
                      protection provisions and, in the case of any Incremental Facility Amendment documenting any Incremental Tranche B Term Loan, provisions then customary for loans of such Type.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the all-in-yield
                      applicable to any such Incremental Term Loan B Facility determined as of the initial funding date for such Incremental Term Loan B Facility is more than 0.50% higher

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    107

                  

                  
                    than the corresponding all-in-yield applicable to the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, then the interest rate margin for the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or
                      the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, as the case may be, shall be increased by an amount equal to the difference between the all-in-yield with respect to such Incremental Term Loan B Facility and the corresponding all-in-yield on the
                      Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, minus 0.50% (for purposes of such calculation and with respect to any such facility, (x) subject to clause (z) below, all-in yield shall be
                      deemed to include all upfront fees and original issue discount (based on a four-year average life to maturity or, if less, the remaining life to maturity) payable to all lenders providing such facility, (y) if the Incremental Term
                      Loan B Facility includes a “LIBOR” interest rate floor greater than the applicable interest rate floor with respect to the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans and such floor is greater than the
                      LIBO Rate for a 3-month Interest Period at such time, such excess amount (above the greater of such floor and such LIBO Rate) shall be equated to the applicable interest rate margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to
                      the interest rate margin under the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans or
                      the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case, the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the Incremental
                      Tranche B Term Loans or the Refinancing Tranche B Term Loans, as applicable, shall be increased to the extent of such excess and (z) all-in yield shall exclude structuring, advisory, success, underwriting, commitment, arrangement,
                      ticking, amendment, consent and similar fees payable in connection therewith whether or not shared with all lenders providing such facility and any other fees not paid by the Borrower generally to all lenders providing such facility
                      ratably or, if only one lender (or affiliated group of lenders) is providing such facility, are fees of the type not customarily shared with lenders generally).

                     

                  

                  (c)  Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to extend Incremental Extensions of Credit (i) shall, to the extent a consent would be
                    required under Section 9.04 if such additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person were taking an assignment of Loans or Commitments, be approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of
                    any Incremental Revolving Commitment or Revolving Commitment Increase, each applicable Issuing Bank) (such approval not be unreasonably withheld) (any such bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional





                      Lender”) and (ii) if not already a 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, each such Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent.  No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Extension of Credit unless it so agrees.  Commitments in respect of any Incremental Extension of Credit
                    shall become Commitments (or in the case of any Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Lender’s Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement upon the effectiveness of the
                    applicable Incremental Facility Amendment.  An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement or to any other Loan Document as may be necessary or appropriate, in
                    the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section (including to provide for voting provisions applicable to the Additional Lenders comparable to the provisions of clause (B) of the second proviso of
                    Section 9.02(b)).  To the extent required by the relevant Additional Lenders as set forth in the relevant Incremental Facility Amendment, the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment and the making of the initial Borrowings
                    thereunder shall be subject to the satisfaction on the effective date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 (it being understood and agreed that all references to a Borrowing

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    108

                  

                  in clauses (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment).

                   

                  (d)  On the date of effectiveness of any Revolving Commitment Increase, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding (the “Existing Revolving Borrowings”)





                    immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase shall be deemed to be repaid, (ii) each Revolving Commitment Increase Lender that shall have had a Revolving Commitment prior to the effectiveness of such
                    Revolving Commitment Increase shall pay to the Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which (A) (1) such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving
                    effect to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Resulting Revolving Borrowings (as hereinafter defined) exceeds (B) (1) such Revolving Commitment Increase
                    Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Revolving Borrowings, (iii) each Revolving
                    Commitment Increase Lender that shall not have had a Revolving Commitment prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase shall pay to the Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount equal to (1) such Revolving
                    Commitment Increase Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Resulting Revolving Borrowings, (iv)
                    after the Administrative Agent receives the funds specified in clauses (ii) and (iii) above, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Revolving Lender of the Applicable Class the portion of such funds that is equal to the amount, if
                    any, by which (A) (1) such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Revolving
                    Borrowings, exceeds (B) (1) such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the aggregate principal amount of the Resulting
                    Revolving Borrowings, (v) after the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase, the Borrower shall be deemed to have made new Revolving Borrowings (the “Resulting Revolving Borrowings”) in an aggregate principal amount
                    equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Revolving Borrowings and of the Types and for the Interest Periods specified in a Borrowing Request delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.03 (and the
                    Borrower shall deliver such Borrowing Request), (vi) each Revolving Lender of the Applicable Class shall be deemed to hold its Applicable Percentage of each Resulting Revolving Borrowing (calculated after giving effect to the
                    effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase) and (vii) the Borrower shall pay each Revolving Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on its Loans comprising the Existing Revolving Borrowings.  The deemed payments of the
                    Existing Revolving Borrowings made pursuant to clause (i) above shall be subject to compensation by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the date of the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase occurs
                    other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto.  Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act
                    be deemed to have assigned to each Revolving Commitment Increase Lender, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s
                    participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding
                    participations hereunder in Letters of Credit held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage.

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    109

                  

                  (e)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, after giving effect to any transaction contemplated in
                    this Section, there shall not be more than six Classes of Loans or Commitments (including any revolving and term loan facilities) hereunder at any one time outstanding.

                   

                  (f)  The Borrower may (i) incur Incremental Facilities under the Incremental Dollar Basket or the Incremental Ratio Basket in such order as it may elect in its sole discretion and shall
                    be allowed to classify under which basket such Incremental Facilities are being incurred at the time of such Incurrence and (ii) later reclassify Indebtedness incurred under the Incremental Dollar Basket as incurred under the
                    Incremental Ratio Basket, if at the time of such reclassification, the Borrower would have been permitted to incur such Indebtedness under the Incremental Ratio Basket.

                   

                  SECTION 2.22.  Extension of Maturity Date.

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    (a)  The Borrower may, by delivery of a Maturity Date Extension Request to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy thereof to each of the Lenders) not less than
                      30 days prior to the then-existing Maturity Date for the applicable Class of Commitments and/or Loans hereunder to be extended (the “Existing Maturity Date”), request that the Lenders extend the Existing Maturity Date in
                      accordance with this Section; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, each Lender may elect to agree or not agree, in its sole discretion, to an extension of a Maturity Date.  Each Maturity Date Extension Request shall (i)
                      specify the applicable Class of Commitments and/or Loans hereunder to be extended, (ii) specify the date to which the applicable Maturity Date is sought to be extended, (iii) specify the changes, if any, to the Applicable Rate to be
                      applied in determining the interest payable on the Loans of, and fees payable hereunder to, Consenting Lenders (as defined below) in respect of that portion of their Commitments and/or Loans extended to such new Maturity Date and the
                      time as of which such changes will become effective (which may be prior to the Existing Maturity Date) and (iv) specify any other amendments or modifications to this Agreement to be effected in connection with such Maturity Date
                      Extension Request; provided that no such changes or modifications requiring approvals pursuant to the provisos to Section 9.02(b) shall become effective prior to the Existing Maturity Date unless such other approvals have been
                      obtained.  In the event a Maturity Date Extension Request shall have been delivered by the Borrower, each Lender shall have the right to agree to the extension of the Existing Maturity Date and other matters contemplated thereby on
                      the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (each Lender agreeing to the Maturity Date Extension Request being referred to herein as a “Consenting Lender” and each Lender not agreeing thereto being referred to
                      herein as a “Declining Lender”), which right may be exercised by written notice thereof, specifying the maximum amount of the Commitment and/or Loans of such Lender with respect to which such Lender agrees to the extension of
                      the Maturity Date, delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) not later than a day to be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent following the date on which the Maturity Date Extension Request
                      shall have been delivered by the Borrower (it being understood and agreed that any Lender that shall have failed to exercise such right as set forth above shall be deemed to be a Declining Lender).  If a Lender elects to extend only a
                      portion of its then existing Commitment and/or Loans, it will be deemed for purposes hereof to be a Consenting Lender in respect of such extended portion and a Declining Lender in respect of the remaining portion of its Commitment
                      and/or Loans, and the aggregate principal amount of each Type and currency of Loans of the applicable Class of such Lender shall be allocated ratably among the extended and non-extended portions of the Loans of such Lender based on
                      the aggregate principal amount of such Loans so extended and not extended.  If Consenting Lenders shall have agreed to such Maturity Date Extension Request in respect of Commitments and/or Loans held by them, then, subject to
                      paragraph (d) of this Section, on the date

                     

                  

                  
                    
                      


                    110

                  

                  
                    specified in the Maturity Date Extension Request as the effective date thereof (the “Extension Effective Date”), (i) the Existing Maturity Date of the applicable Commitments and/or Loans shall,
                      as to the Consenting Lenders, be extended to such date as shall be specified therein, (ii) the terms and conditions of the applicable Commitments and/or Loans of the Consenting Lenders (including interest and fees (including Letter of
                      Credit fees) payable in respect thereof) shall be modified as set forth in the Maturity Date Extension Request and (iii) such other modifications and amendments hereto specified in the Maturity Date Extension Request shall (subject to
                      any required approvals (including those of the Required Lenders) having been obtained) become effective.

                     

                  

                  
                    (b)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall have the right, in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.19(b) and 9.04, at any time prior to the Existing Maturity Date,
                      to replace a Declining Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, only in respect of that portion of such Lender’s Commitment and/or Loans subject to a Maturity Date Extension Request that it has not agreed to extend) with a Lender or other
                      financial institution that will agree to such Maturity Date Extension Request, and any such replacement Lender shall for all purposes constitute a Consenting Lender in respect of the Commitment and/or Loans assigned to and assumed by
                      it on and after the effective time of such replacement.

                     

                  

                  (c)  If a Maturity Date Extension Request has become effective hereunder:

                   

                  
                    (i)  solely in respect of a Maturity Date Extension Request that has become effective in respect of the Revolving
                      Commitments, not later than the fifth Business Day prior to the Existing Maturity Date, the Borrower shall make prepayments of Revolving Loans and shall provide cash collateral in respect of Letters of Credit, in each case, in the
                      manner set forth in Section 2.05(i), such that, after giving effect to such prepayments and such provision of cash collateral, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure as of such date will not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of the
                      Consenting Lenders extended pursuant to this Section (and the Borrower shall not be permitted thereafter to request any Revolving Loan or any issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit if, after giving effect
                      thereto, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments so extended);

                     

                  

                  (ii)  solely in respect of a Maturity Date Extension Request that has become effective in respect of the Revolving
                    Commitments, on the Existing Maturity Date, the Revolving Commitment of each Declining Lender shall, to the extent not assumed, assigned or transferred as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section, terminate, and the Borrower shall
                    repay all the Revolving Loans made by each Declining Lender to the Borrower to the extent such Loans shall not have been so purchased, assigned and transferred, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest and all fees and
                    other amounts owing to such Declining Lender hereunder, it being understood and agreed that, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, such repayments may be funded with the proceeds of new Revolving
                    Borrowings made simultaneously with such repayments by the Consenting Lenders, which such Revolving Borrowings shall be made ratably by the Consenting Lenders in accordance with their extended Revolving Commitments; and

                   

                  (iii)  solely in respect of a Maturity Date Extension Request that has become effective in respect of a Class of Term
                    Loans, on the Existing Maturity Date, the Borrower shall repay all the Loans of such Class made by each

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    111

                  

                  Declining Lender to the Borrower, to the extent such Loans shall not have been so purchased, assigned and transferred, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest and all
                    fees and other amounts owing to such Declining Lender hereunder, it being understood and agreed that, subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, such repayments may be funded with the proceeds of new Revolving
                    Borrowings made simultaneously with such repayments by the Revolving Lenders.

                   

                  (d)  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Maturity Date Extension Request shall become effective hereunder unless, on the Extension Effective Date, the conditions set forth in clauses (a)
                    and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to such Maturity Date Extension Request) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that
                    effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower.

                   

                  (e)  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, it is hereby agreed that no extension of an Existing Maturity Date in accordance with the express terms of this
                    Section, or any amendment or modification of the terms and conditions of the Commitments and the Loans of the Consenting Lenders effected pursuant thereto, shall be deemed to (i) violate the last sentence of Section 2.08(c) or Section
                    2.18(b) or 2.18(c) or any other provision of this Agreement requiring the ratable reduction of Commitments or the ratable sharing of payments or (ii) require the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders under Section 9.02(b).

                   

                  (f)  The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Consenting Lenders may enter into an amendment to this Agreement to effect such modifications as may be necessary to reflect the
                    terms of any Maturity Date Extension Request that has become effective in accordance with the provisions of this Section.

                   

                  (g)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, after giving effect to any transaction contemplated in
                    this Section, there shall not be more than six Classes of Loans or Commitments (including any revolving and term loan facilities) hereunder at any one time outstanding.

                   

                  SECTION 2.23.  Refinancing Facilities.  (a) The Borrower may, on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, obtain Refinancing Term Loan
                    Indebtedness. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that such Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness shall be made, which shall be a date not less than five
                    Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided that:

                  
                     

                  

                  
                    (i)  no Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) (with respect to the Borrower) or (i) (with
                      respect to the Borrower) shall have occurred and be continuing;

                     

                  

                  (ii)  substantially concurrently with the incurrence of such Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness, the Borrower shall repay
                    or prepay then outstanding Term Borrowings of the applicable Class made to the Borrower (together with any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and any prepayment premium with respect thereto) in an aggregate principal amount equal to
                    the Net Proceeds of such Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness, and any such prepayment of Term Borrowings of such Class shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled

                   

                  
                    
                      


                    112

                  

                  repayments of Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to Section 2.09(a) ratably,

                   

                  (iii)  such notice shall set forth, with respect to the Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness established thereby in the form
                    of Refinancing Term Loans, to the extent applicable, the following terms thereof: (a) the designation of such Refinancing Term Loans as a new “Class” for all purposes hereof, (b) the stated termination and maturity dates applicable to
                    the Refinancing Term Loans of such Class, (c) amortization applicable thereto and the effect thereon of any prepayment of such Refinancing Term Loans, (d) the interest rate or rates applicable to the Refinancing Term Loans of such
                    Class, (e) the fees applicable to the Refinancing Term Loans of such Class, (f) any original issue discount applicable thereto, (g) the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods applicable to Refinancing Term Loans of such Class and
                    (h) any voluntary or mandatory commitment reduction or prepayment requirements applicable to Refinancing Term Loans of such Class (which prepayment requirements may provide that such Refinancing Term Loans may participate in any
                    mandatory prepayment on a pro rata basis with any Class of existing Term Loans, but may not provide for prepayment requirements that are materially more favorable to the Lenders holding such Refinancing Term Loans than to the Lenders
                    holding such Class of Term Loans) and any restrictions on the voluntary or mandatory reductions or prepayments of Refinancing Term Loans of such Class, and

                   

                  (iv)  such Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness will, to the extent secured, rank pari passu or junior in
                    right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder on the terms set out in an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.

                   

                  (b)  Any Lender or any other Eligible Assignee approached by the Borrower to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness may elect or decline, in its sole
                    discretion, to provide any Refinancing Term Loan Indebtedness.

                   

                  (c)  Any Refinancing Term Loans shall be established pursuant to a Refinancing Facility Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower, each Refinancing Term Lender providing such
                    Refinancing Term Loan and the Administrative Agent, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in clause (a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender).  Each Refinancing Facility Agreement shall be
                    binding on the Lenders, the Loan Parties and the other parties hereto and may effect amendments to the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to
                    effect provisions of this Section, including any amendments necessary to treat such Refinancing Term Loans as a new “Class” of loans hereunder.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each
                    Refinancing Facility Agreement.

                   

                  (d)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, after giving effect to any transaction contemplated in
                    this Section, there shall not be more than six Classes of Loans or Commitments (including any revolving and term loan facilities) hereunder at any one time outstanding.

                    The Borrower (with respect to itself and, where applicable, the Restricted Subsidiaries) represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, each of the Issuing Banks and each of the
                      Lenders that:

                     

                    SECTION 3.01.  Organization; Powers.  Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and, to the extent that such concept is
                      applicable in the relevant jurisdiction, in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdictions) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (except, in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary, to
                      the extent the failure to be so could not (either individually or in the aggregate) reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect), (b) has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to carry on its
                      business as now conducted, to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement and each other Loan Document and (c) except where the failure to be so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected
                      to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and, to the extent that such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction, is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

                    
                       

                    

                    SECTION 3.02.  Authorization; Due Execution and Delivery; Enforceability.  This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and
                      each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower or such Loan Party, as applicable, enforceable
                      against such Person in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of
                      equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

                      which it is a party (a) as of the date such Loan Document is executed, do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or
                      made and are in full force and effect and except (i) filings necessary to perfect Liens created under the Loan Documents or (ii) where failure to obtain such consent or approval, or make such registration or filing, in the aggregate,
                      would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any Requirement of Law applicable to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture,
                      agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or their respective assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment, repurchase or redemption to be made by the Borrower or any
                      Restricted Subsidiary or give rise to a right of, or result in, termination, cancelation or acceleration of any obligation thereunder, except with respect to any violation, default, payment, repurchase, redemption, termination,
                      cancellation or acceleration under this clause (c) or clause (b) above that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the
                      Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, except Liens created under the Loan Documents or permitted by Section 6.02.

                        Unaudited Financial Statements, the absence of footnotes.

                       

                    

                    (b)  Since December 31, 2018, no event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

                      whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured,
                      (c) the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured and (d) the Borrower

                      liability.

                    SECTION 5.08.  [Reserved].

                    
                       

                    

                    SECTION 5.09.  Books and Records; Inspection and Audit Rights.  The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to keep proper books of record and
                      accounts in which full, true and correct entries, in conformity with GAAP and all Requirements of Law are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities.  The Borrower will, and will cause each of its
                      Restricted Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, upon at least 3 Business Days’ notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make extracts from its books and
                      records, to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants; provided that, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall be provided an
                      opportunity to participate in any such discussions with such accountants, all at such reasonable times during regular office hours but no more often than one (1) time during any calendar year absent the existence of an Event of
                      Default; provided that excluding any such visits and inspections during the continuation of an Event of Default, only the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may exercise visitation and inspection rights of the
                      Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section; provided, further that none of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary will be required to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making copies or
                      abstracts of, or

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      
                        


                      124

                    

                    
                      discussion of, any document, information or other matter (i) that constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the
                        Administrative Agent or any Lender (or their respective representatives or contractors) is prohibited by Requirement of Law or any binding agreement (not created in contemplation thereof) or (iii) that is subject to attorney-client
                        or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product.

                       

                    

                    
                      SECTION 5.10.  Compliance with Laws.  The Borrower will, and will take reasonable action to cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, comply with all Requirements of Law
                        (including ERISA, Environmental Laws and the USA PATRIOT Act) with respect to it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
                        Effect.

                    

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      SECTION 5.11.  Use of Proceeds; Letters of Credit.  (a)  The proceeds of the Term Loans, together with cash on hand, will be used solely for (i) the payment of fees and
                        expenses payable in connection with the Transactions, (ii) the Refinancing and (iii) general corporate purposes.  On the Closing Date, the proceeds of the Revolving Loans will be used for working capital and other general corporate
                        purposes of the Restricted Group.  Thereafter, the proceeds of the Revolving Loans, as well as the proceeds of any Incremental Extension of Credit (unless otherwise provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment) will be
                        used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and other Investments and Restricted Payments permitted by this Agreement, of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries. No part of the
                        proceeds of any Loan will be used in violation of the representation set forth in Section 3.10.  Letters of Credit will be used by the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries for general corporate purposes.

                    

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      (b)  The Borrower will not request any Borrowing or any Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Subsidiaries and its or their respective
                        directors, officers and employees shall not use, the proceeds of any Borrowing or Letter of Credit (A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of
                        value, to any Person in material violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any
                        Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, except to the extent permitted for a Person required to comply with Sanctions, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

                       

                    

                    SECTION 5.12.  Additional Subsidiaries.  (a)  If any additional Subsidiary (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) is formed or acquired or if any Subsidiary ceases to be an
                      Excluded Subsidiary or becomes a Designated Subsidiary, in each case after the Closing Date, the Borrower will, as promptly as practicable and, in any event, within 90 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent, acting
                      reasonably, may agree to in writing (including electronic mail)) after such Subsidiary is formed or acquired or ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary or becomes a Designated Subsidiary, notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, to
                      the extent applicable, cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied with respect to such Subsidiary (and any Material Real Property owned by such Subsidiary) and with respect to any Equity Interest in or Indebtedness
                      of such Subsidiary owned by or on behalf of any Loan Party and such other documents, certificates and opinions consistent with those delivered pursuant to Sections 4.01(b) and (c) that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request
                      with respect to such Subsidiary.

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      (b)  The Borrower may designate by writing to the Administrative Agent any wholly owned Restricted Subsidiary that is a U.S. Subsidiary and otherwise an Excluded Subsidiary as a
                        Designated Subsidiary (each such Restricted Subsidiary, a “Designated Subsidiary”).

                       

                    

                    
                      
                        


                      125

                    

                    SECTION 5.13.  Further Assurances.  (a)   The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries that is a Loan Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing
                      statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents, and the recording of instruments in
                      the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office), that may be required under any applicable law, or that the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request, to cause the
                      Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be and remain satisfied and are necessary in the applicable jurisdiction in order for Liens in the Collateral to remain perfected, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.  Notwithstanding
                      anything contained in this Agreement, no Mortgage shall be executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent with respect to any real property located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor
                      agency) as a “special flood hazard area” with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under Flood Insurance Laws unless and until each Lender has received, at least 30 calendar days prior to such execution and
                      delivery, a “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determination (together with a notice about special flood hazard area status and flood disaster assistance duly executed by the Borrower and each
                      applicable mortgagor relating thereto) (provided, that in no event shall the Borrower be required to deliver more than one flood determination to the Lenders as a whole) and each such lender has confirmed to the Administrative
                      Agent that flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance has been  completed to its reasonable satisfaction (such written confirmation not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided however that the time
                      period for execution and delivery of any such Mortgage (and any related documents pursuant to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement) by the applicable Loan Party shall, to the extent necessary, be automatically extended to the date
                      on which the Administrative Agent is permitted under this Section to enter into such Mortgage.

                    
                       

                    

                    (b)  If any material assets (other than Excluded Property) including any Material Real Property, or any IP Rights (other than Excluded Property) are acquired by a Loan Party after the
                      Closing Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the applicable Security Document that become subject to the Lien created by such Security Document upon acquisition thereof), the Borrower will notify the Administrative
                      Agent and the Lenders thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and will, subject to the Collateral and
                      Guarantee Requirement, take, and cause the Loan Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this Section, and otherwise cause the Collateral and
                      Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.

                     

                    
                      (c)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to pledges of, or grants of security interests in, assets acquired by a Loan Party after the Closing Date
                        (including Equity Interests of newly-acquired Restricted Subsidiaries) or that cease to be Excluded Property after the Closing Date, the Loan Parties shall have the timeframe set forth in the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee
                        Requirement”, or provided for in the Collateral Agreement or other applicable Security Document, or if no timeframe is so provided, ninety (90) days (or such longer period as agreed by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably)
                        after the date of such acquisition (or after the date such assets cease to be Excluded Property) to comply with the requirements of clauses (a) and (b) above.

                       

                    

                    SECTION 5.14.  Credit Ratings.  The Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the credit facilities made available under this Agreement to be continuously
                      rated by S&P and Moody’s (but not any particular rating).  The Borrower will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a corporate rating (but not any particular rating) from S&P and a

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      
                        


                      126

                    

                    
                      corporate family rating (but not any particular rating) from Moody’s, in each case, in respect of the Borrower.

                       

                    

                    
                      SECTION 5.15.  Post-Closing Date Matters.  As promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time period specified in Schedule 5.15 (or such longer period as the
                        Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, may agree to in writing), after the Closing Date, (i) the Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its subsidiaries that is a Loan Party to, deliver all Mortgages that are required to be
                        delivered pursuant to, and otherwise satisfy, the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement (if any), except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to its authority as set forth in the definition of the term
                        “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” and (ii) the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the items specified in Schedule 5.15 hereof or complete such undertakings described on Schedule 5.15 hereof, if any, on or before
                        the dates specified with respect to such items, or such later dates as may be agreed to by, or as may be waived by, the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

                    

                    
                       

                    

                    SECTION 5.16.  [Reserved].

                    
                       

                    

                    SECTION 5.17.  Designation of Subsidiaries.  The Borrower may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a
                      Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (a) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such designation and (b) no Subsidiary may be
                      designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it (i) is a “restricted subsidiary” or a “guarantor” (or any similar designation) for the Existing Senior Notes or any Material Indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the
                      Obligations, (ii) holds any IP Rights that are material to the operation of the business of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries or (iii) holds any Equity Interests in any Restricted Subsidiary.  The designation of any
                      Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the parent company of such Subsidiary therein under Section 6.04(u) at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of such parent
                      company’s investment therein.  The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary, and the making of
                      an Investment by such Subsidiary in any Investments of such Subsidiary, in each case existing at such time, and (ii) a return on any Investment in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the
                      fair market value at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary.

                    Negative Covenants

                     

                    Until the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and all fees, expenses and other amounts (other than contingent amounts not
                      yet due) payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document have been paid in full, and all Letters of Credit (other than those collateralized or back-stopped on terms reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) have
                      expired or been terminated and all LC Disbursements shall have been reimbursed:

                    SECTION 6.01.  Indebtedness; Certain Equity Securities.  (a)   The Borrower will not, nor will the Borrower permit any of the Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume
                      or permit to exist any Indebtedness, except:

                    
                       

                    

                    
                      (i)  Indebtedness created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to
                        Section 2.21 or 2.23);

                      

                      

                    

                    (ii)  the Existing Senior Notes;

                     

                    (iii)  Indebtedness (and Guarantees thereof) existing on the Closing Date and, to the extent having a principal amount in
                      excess of $10,000,000 individually or $25,000,000 in the aggregate set forth in Schedule 6.01 (in each case, except for intercompany Indebtedness) and any intercompany Indebtedness existing on the Closing Date;

                     

                    (iv)  Indebtedness of the Borrower to any Restricted Subsidiary and of any Restricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or any
                      other Restricted Subsidiary which is permitted pursuant to Section 6.04 so long as such Indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party owing to any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party shall be subordinated in right of
                      payment to the Obligations on the terms set forth in the Global Intercompany Note (or any other promissory note or agreement with substantially similar terms of subordination reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent); provided
                      such Indebtedness owed by a Loan Party to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party shall not be required to become subject to the Global Intercompany Note (or any other promissory note or agreement referred to above in this
                      clause providing for such subordination) until the 60th day after the latest of (x) the Closing Date, (y) the date such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary and (z) the date such Restricted Subsidiary becomes the obligor or lender
                      in respect of intercompany Indebtedness (other than in respect of Investments made pursuant to clause (ee) of Section 6.04) owed by or to a Loan Party in an aggregate principal amount of more than $20,000,000 (or, in each case, such
                      longer period as agreed by the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably);

                     

                    (v)  Guarantees by the Borrower of Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary and by any Restricted Subsidiary of
                      Indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (a)(iii) or (a)(vii) of this Section); provided that (A) the Indebtedness so Guaranteed is permitted by this
                      Section, (B) Guarantees by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of Indebtedness of any Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party shall be subject to Section 6.04, (C) Guarantees permitted under this clause (v) shall be subordinated to the
                      Obligations of the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to the same extent and on the same terms as the Indebtedness so Guaranteed is subordinated to the Obligations (if such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Obligations) and (D) none
                      of the Existing Senior Notes or any Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof shall be Guaranteed by any Subsidiary unless such Subsidiary is a Loan Party;

                     

                    (vi)  Indebtedness of any member of the Restricted Group incurred to finance the acquisition, construction, repair,
                      replacement or improvement of any fixed or capital assets, including Capital Lease Obligations and any Indebtedness

                    assumed by any member of the Restricted Group in connection with the acquisition of any such assets or secured by a Lien on any such assets prior to the acquisition thereof; provided
                      that such Indebtedness is incurred prior to or within 270 days after such acquisition or the completion of such construction, repair, replacement or improvement; provided further that at the time of incurrence thereof,

                      (b)  For purposes of determining compliance with this Section, in the event that an item of Indebtedness at any time, whether at the time of Incurrence or upon the application of
                        all or a portion of the proceeds thereof or subsequently, meets the criteria of more than one of the categories (other than ratio-based baskets) of Section 6.01(a), the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall, in their sole
                        discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or at any later time divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness solely between and among such categories and in each case, that would be permitted to be incurred in reliance
                        on the applicable exception as of the date of such reclassification; provided that Indebtedness incurred hereunder shall only be classified

                      as incurred under Section 6.01(a)(i) and the Existing Senior Notes shall only be classified as incurred under Section 6.01(a)(ii)(A). Accrual of interest or dividends, the accretion of accreted value,
                        the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest or dividends in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Disqualified Equity Interests in the form of
                        additional shares of Disqualified Equity Interests of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of
                        currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests for purposes of this covenant.  Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that are
                        otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence
                        of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this covenant.

                       

                    

                    (c)  For purposes of determining compliance with any dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign
                      currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first incurred (at the Borrower’s election), in the case
                      of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable dollar-denominated restriction to be
                      exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing
                      Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced (plus the aggregate amount of premiums (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and fees, discounts and expenses in connection
                      therewith).

                     

                    (d)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Foreign Subsidiary shall Guarantee any Material Indebtedness of the Borrower or any U.S. Subsidiary that is a Loan Party
                      unless substantially contemporaneously with the incurrence of such Guarantee such Foreign Subsidiary shall Guarantee the Obligations pursuant to documentation reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

                      that (A) such Lien shall not apply to any other asset of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than assets financed by the same financing source in the ordinary course of business and after-acquired property that is affixed
                      or incorporated into the asset(s) covered by such Lien or financed by Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01(a)(iii) or Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof) and (B) such Lien

                      extensions, renewals, replacements and refinancings does not exceed the principal amount of the obligations being extended, renewed, replaced or refinanced or, in the case of any such obligations constituting Indebtedness, that are
                      permitted under Section 6.01(a)(xxiv) as Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01(a)(iii);

                     

                    (iv)  any Lien existing on any asset prior to the acquisition thereof by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or
                      existing on any asset of any Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary (or of any Person not previously a Restricted Subsidiary that is merged or consolidated with or into a Restricted Subsidiary in a transaction permitted
                      hereunder) after the Closing Date prior to the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary (or is so merged or consolidated); provided that (A) such Lien is not created in contemplation of or in connection with such
                      acquisition or such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary (or such merger or consolidation), (B) such Lien shall not apply to any other asset of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than (x) assets financed by the same

                      pursuant to Section 6.05, so long as such disposition does not constitute a disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole;

                     

                    (iii)  any Restricted Subsidiary may liquidate or dissolve; provided that in the case of any dissolution or
                      liquidation of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Loan Party, such Subsidiary shall at or before the time of such dissolution or liquidation transfer its assets to another Loan Party unless such disposition of assets is permitted under

                      merge or consolidate with (or Dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to) any other Person; provided that (A) the Borrower shall be the continuing or surviving Person or (B) if (x) the Person formed by or surviving
                      any such merger or consolidation is not the Borrower (y) the Borrower is not the Person into which the Borrower has been liquidated or (z) in connection with a Disposition of all or substantially all of the Borrower’s assets, the

                          The provisions of this Section are solely for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, the Tranche A Term Lenders and the Incremental Tranche B Term Lenders and, unless otherwise provided in any
                            Incremental Facility Amendment, not for the benefit of any lenders providing any other Incremental Facility. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02, the Required Covenant Lenders may (i) amend or otherwise modify this
                            Section or, solely for the purposes of this Section, the defined terms used, directly or indirectly, therein, or (ii) waive any non-compliance with this Section or any Event of Default resulting from such non-compliance, in each

                          Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the completion of a Permitted Acquisition involving aggregate consideration in excess of $100,000,000 (a “Material Acquisition”)
                            that, on a pro forma basis would result in an increase in the Consolidated Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio, if the Borrower shall so elect by a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent within 30 days following such completion
                            (a “Total Leverage Increase Election”), the applicable maximum Consolidated Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio set forth above with respect to each four-fiscal quarter period ending within 18 months following the completion of
                            such Material Acquisition shall be increased by 0.50 to 1.00 (the period during which any such increase in the Consolidated Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio shall be in effect being called a “Total Leverage Increase Period”). 




                            The Borrower may terminate any Total Leverage Increase Period by a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent whereupon, on the last day of the fiscal quarter during which such notice was given and on the last day of each
                            fiscal quarter thereafter until another Total Leverage Increase Period has commenced as provided in this paragraph, the maximum Consolidated Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio shall be the applicable ratio set forth above.  If a
                            Total Leverage Increase Election shall have been made in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the Borrower may not make another Total Leverage Increase Election until a period of least one fiscal quarter during which a
                            Total Leverage Increase Period is not in effect shall have occurred following the termination or expiration of the most recent prior Total Leverage Increase Period.

                           

                        

                        SECTION 6.14.   Changes in Fiscal Periods. The Borrower will not make any change in fiscal year; provided, however, that the Borrower may, upon written
                          notice to the Administrative Agent, change its fiscal year to any other fiscal year reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in which case the Borrower and the Administrative Agent will, and are hereby authorized by the
                          Lenders, to make any adjustments to this Agreement that are necessary to reflect such change in fiscal year.

                            date thereof or at a date fixed for prepayment thereof or otherwise;

                          Agreement or any other Loan Document, when and as the same shall become due and payable, and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of five Business Days;

                         

                        (c)  any representation or warranty made or deemed made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in any
                          report, certificate or financial statement furnished pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect when made or deemed made and, to the
                          extent capable of being cured, such incorrect representation or warranty shall remain incorrect for a period of 30 days following written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent to the Borrower;

                         

                        (d)  the Borrower shall fail to observe or perform any covenant, condition or agreement contained in Section 5.02(a), 5.04 (with respect to the existence of the Borrower), 5.11 or
                          Article VI; provided that, unless otherwise provided in any Incremental Facility Amendment, any failure to comply with Section 6.12 or 6.13 shall not constitute an Event of Default with respect to any Incremental Loans

                        Lenders (without the requirement for Required Lender action) or by the Administrative Agent at the direction of such Lenders and (z) only if action has been taken in respect of such Event of Default
                          under clause (i) (with respect to the Revolving Loans) by a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders (excluding any Defaulting Lenders) or by the Administrative Agent at the direction of such Lenders or has been taken in
                          respect of such Event of Default under clause (ii) (with respect to the Tranche A Term Loans or the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans) by a Majority in Interest of the Tranche A Term Lenders or the Required Covenant Lenders, as the
                          case may be (excluding in each case any Defaulting Lenders) or by the Administrative Agent at the direction of such Lenders, then such Event of Default will be deemed to be an Event of Default with respect to any Incremental
                          Facility or Refinancing Term Loans hereunder and the remedies set forth above can be exercised in respect of any such Incremental Facility or Refinancing Term Loans.

                         

                        
                          SECTION 7.02.   Exclusion of Certain Subsidiaries. Solely for the purposes of determining whether a Default has occurred under clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01,
                            any reference in any such paragraph to any Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed not to include any Restricted Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstance referred to in such paragraph that is not a Material Subsidiary; provided
                            that (i) if it is necessary to exclude more than one Restricted Subsidiary from clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 pursuant to this paragraph in order to avoid a Default, the aggregate consolidated assets of all such excluded

                          The Administrative Agent

                         

                        
                          SECTION 8.01.   Appointment and Other Matters.

                           

                        

                        
                          (a)  Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors to serve
                            as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan
                            Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, each of the Lenders and the
                            Issuing Banks hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney to execute any Security Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s behalf. Without limiting
                            the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party,
                            to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.

                           

                        

                        (b)  In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks
                          (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

                         

                        
                          
                            


                          154

                        

                        
                          (i)  the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary
                            or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is
                            continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or
                            other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between
                            contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative
                              Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby;

                          

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (ii)  where the Administrative Agent is required or deemed to act as a trustee in respect of any Collateral over which a security interest has been created
                              pursuant to a Loan Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, the obligations and liabilities of the Administrative Agent to the Secured
                              Parties in its capacity as trustee shall be excluded to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law;

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iii)  nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any sum or the
                              profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          (c)  The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing
                            Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent.  The terms “Issuing Banks”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the
                            Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable.  The Person serving as Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to,
                            own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the
                            Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks.

                           

                        

                        (d) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in
                          nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a)  the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the
                          Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative
                          Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary,
                          under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes

                        exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this
                          Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or
                          that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further,
                          that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided,
                          and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any
                          Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

                         

                        (e)  The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more
                          sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of and all their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers by or through their respective
                          Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent and shall apply to their respective activities in
                          connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents
                          except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

                         

                        (f)   In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, State or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or
                          hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any LC Disbursement 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 (but not obligated) 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, LC 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 Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under
                            Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03) 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 any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each other
                          Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Secured Parties,
                          to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section

                        9.03).  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 or Issuing Bank, any plan of
                          reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in
                          any such proceeding.

                         

                        
                          (g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Arrangers nor any Person named on the cover page of this Agreement as a Syndication Agent or a Documentation
                            Agent shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities
                            provided for hereunder.

                           

                          

                          

                        

                        (h)  The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s
                          rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.  Each Secured Party, whether
                          or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.

                          (a)  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this
                            Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in
                            good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court
                            of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof
                            contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this
                            Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with
                            the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Loan Party
                            to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

                          

                          

                        

                        (b)  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 5.02 unless and until
                          written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 5.02” in respect of this Agreement and identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or (ii) notice of
                          any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. Further, the Administrative
                          Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
                          certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions

                         set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
                          Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, other than to confirm
                          receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
                          or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered
                          by the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Exposure or the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Bank.

                         

                        (c)  Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in
                          accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts
                          selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender
                          or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v)
                          in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, may presume that such
                          condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the
                          issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other
                          instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed
                          or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

                         

                        
                          SECTION 8.03.     Successor Administrative Agent.

                           

                        

                        
                          (a) Subject to the terms of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign from its capacity as such upon 30 days’ notice of its intent to resign to the Lenders, the
                            Issuing Banks and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a
                            successor.  If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, then the
                            retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.  Upon the
                            acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the
                            retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those
                            payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and such successor.

                        (b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30
                          days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower,
                          whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided
                          that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested
                          with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until
                          such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to
                          take any further action under any Security Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
                          powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person
                          other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made
                          to each Lender and each Issuing Bank.  Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and
                          indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub‐agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken
                          or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above.

                            independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has
                            deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will,
                            independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may
                            contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
                            taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

                           

                        

                        (b)  Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or
                          any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, this Agreement and each other Loan Document and each other document
                          required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.

                         

                        
                          
                            


                          159

                        

                        (c)  (i) Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its
                          sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually
                          and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank  (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender
                          or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds,
                          together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the
                          greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such
                          Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative
                          Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.  A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section
                          8.04(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

                         

                        
                          (ii)  Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount
                            than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or
                            accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment.  Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware
                            a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in
                            no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in
                            respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a
                            rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

                           

                          (iii)  The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that has received
                            such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or
                            otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

                           

                          (iv)  Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.04(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by,
                            or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

                          SECTION 8.05.   Collateral Matters.

                        

                        
                          

                          

                        

                        
                          (a)   Except (x) with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender in accordance with Section 9.08 or (y) with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of
                            claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights
                            and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.

                           

                        

                        (b)   In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Cash Management Services the obligations under which constitute Secured Cash
                          Management Obligations and no Hedging Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Hedging Obligations will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection
                          with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such
                          arrangement in respect of Cash Management Services or any Hedging Agreement shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be
                          bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

                         

                        (c)  The Secured Parties party hereto irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release or subordinate any Lien on any property
                          granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document and any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(a)(v).  The Administrative Agent shall
                          not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative
                          Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the
                          Collateral.

                         

                        (d)  The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations
                          (including by accepting some or all of the applicable Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of such Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through
                          one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any
                          similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the
                          Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.  In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and
                          shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets
                          on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so
                          purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase).  In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be
                          authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition 

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          161

                        

                        vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to
                          such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any
                          actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing
                          documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may
                          be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such
                          acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership
                          interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v)
                          to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the
                          acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the applicable Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest
                          in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition
                          vehicle to take any further action.  Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured
                          Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the
                          Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

                         

                        (e)   The Lenders and the other Secured Parties party hereto hereby irrevocably authorize and instruct the Administrative Agent to, without any further consent of any Lender or
                          any other Secured Party, enter into (or acknowledge and consent to) or amend, renew, extend, supplement, restate, replace, waive or otherwise modify any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement; provided that the specific
                          consent of counterparties to any Hedging Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Hedging Obligations, each provider of Cash Management Services the obligations under which constitute Secured Cash Management
                          Obligations, or each Issuing Bank shall be required for any amendment, renewal, extension, supplement, restatement, replacement or waiver to the extent its rights and obligations solely in its capacity as such are materially
                          adversely affected.  The Lenders and the other Secured Parties irrevocably agree that any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the Administrative Agent shall be binding on the Secured Parties, and each Lender and
                          each of the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will take no actions contrary to the provisions of an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement.  The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to any provider of any
                          Indebtedness not prohibited by Section 6.01 hereof to extend credit to the Loan Parties and such persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions.

                          (a)  Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party
                            hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of

                          (i)   such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such
                            Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of, or performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, or this Agreement,

                            (iii)  (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning

                        Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices
                          and other communications sent by fax shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next
                          Business Day for the recipient).  Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications, to the extent provided in paragraph (b) of this Section, shall be effective as provided in such paragraph.

                        approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices under Article II to any Lender or any Issuing Bank if such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as
                          applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.  The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices
                          and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications or may be
                          rescinded by any such Person by notice to each other such Person.

                         

                        Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an
                          acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment) and (ii) notices and other communications posted to an Internet or
                          intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and
                          identifying the website address therefore; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or
                          communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.

                         

                        (c)  Change of Address, etc.  Any party hereto may change its address or fax number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

                         

                        (d)  Platform.

                         

                        
                          (i)  The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications by posting such Communication on Debt
                            Domain, IntraLinks, SyndTrak or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

                           

                        

                        
                          
                            (ii) Although the Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the
                              Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Platform
                              only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the
                              Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Platform, and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such
                              distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

                              

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iii) THE PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR
                              COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS

                            OR OMISSIONS IN THE PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A
                              PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM.  IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
                              ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY DOCUMENTATION AGENT, ANY SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”)
                              HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER
                              IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE PLATFORM EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH DAMAGES ARE FOUND IN A FINAL AND
                              NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT OF A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE BAD FAITH, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF AN APPLICABLE PARTY OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iv) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that
                              Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender or Issuing Bank (as applicable) for purposes of the Loan Documents.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank
                              agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice
                              may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (v) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any
                              notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        SECTION 9.02.  Waivers; Amendments. (a)  No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder
                          or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any
                          other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power.  The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and
                          are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be
                          effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  Without limiting the
                          generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of 

                        
                           

                          

                          
                            
                              


                            166

                          

                          Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the
                            time.  No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

                           

                        

                        
                          (b)   Except as provided in Sections 2.14(b), 2.21, 2.22, 2.23 and 9.02(c), none of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived,
                            amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (provided that the
                            Administrative Agent shall post any such amendments reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective) and, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the
                            Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender
                            without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default will not constitute an increase in the Commitment of any 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, in each case without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood and agreed that a
                            waiver of any Default or Event of Default will not constitute a reduction in the principal amount of any Loan), (iii) postpone the scheduled maturity date of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount
                            of any Term Loan under Section 2.10 or the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment or the required date of reimbursement of any LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce
                            the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood and agreed that a waiver
                            of any Default or Event of Default will not constitute a postponement of the scheduled maturity date of any loan, or the date of any scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees payable hereunder), (iv) change the last
                            sentence of Section 2.08(c), Section 2.18(a), Section 2.18(b), Section 2.18(c) or any other Section hereof or any other Loan Document providing for the ratable treatment of the Lenders, in each case in a manner that would alter
                            the pro rata termination of commitments or sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of the
                            term “Required Lenders” or “Majority in Interest” or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or otherwise
                            modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as applicable); provided that, with the consent of the
                            Required Lenders, the provisions of this Section and the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or “Majority in Interest” may be amended to include references to any new class of loans created under this Agreement (or to
                            lenders extending such loans) on substantially the same basis as the corresponding references relating to the existing Classes of Loans or Lenders; provided further that the definition of “Required Covenant
                            Lenders” may be amended to include the Lenders in respect of any additional Incremental Facility that will have the benefit of Section 6.12 or 6.13 to the extent provided in any Incremental Facility Amendment without the consent
                            of any other Lenders, (vi) release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees provided by the Loan Parties under the Security Documents, in each case without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly
                            provided in Section 9.14 or the Security Documents) (including any such release by the Administrative Agent in connection with any sale or other disposition of any Subsidiary upon the exercise of remedies under the Security
                            Documents), it being understood and agreed that an amendment or other modification of the type of obligations guaranteed under the Security Documents shall not be deemed to be a release of any

                          Guarantee), (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in Section 9.14
                            or the applicable Security Document (including any such release by the Administrative Agent in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Collateral upon the exercise of remedies under the Security Documents), it being
                            understood and agreed that an amendment or other modification of the type of obligations secured by the Security Documents shall not be deemed to be a release of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents), (viii)
                            waive any condition set forth in Section 4.01 (other than as it relates to the payment of fees and expenses of counsel), or, in the case of any Loans made or Letters of Credit issued on the Closing Date, Section 4.02, without
                            the written consent of each Lender with a Revolving Commitment and each Issuing Bank (as applicable), (ix) change any provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the
                            rights in respect of Collateral securing the obligations owed to, or payments due to, Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders
                            representing a Majority in Interest of each affected Class, (x) change the rights of the Tranche A Term Lenders to decline mandatory prepayments as provided in Section 2.11 or the rights of any Additional Lenders of any Class to
                            decline mandatory prepayments of Term Loans of such Class as provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, without the written consent of Tranche A Term Lenders or Additional Lenders of such Class, as applicable,
                            holding a majority of the outstanding Tranche A Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans of such Class or  (xi) change Section 6.12 or 6.13 or the definitions of “Consolidated Adjusted Interest Coverage Ratio” or “Consolidated
                            Adjusted Total Leverage Ratio” (or in each case any of the component definitions thereof), in each case solely as used within such Sections, without the written consent of the Required Covenant Lenders (and the Consent of any
                            other Lenders shall not be required); provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify, extend or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank without
                            the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, (B) any waiver, amendment or other modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of
                            the Lenders of one or more Classes (but not the Lenders of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite number or percentage in interest of each
                            affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time (provided that any change that would directly and
                            adversely affect a Class of Lenders hereunder shall require the written consent of the Majority in Interest with respect to each such Class directly and adversely affected thereby) and (C) if the terms of any waiver, amendment
                            or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document provide that any Class of Loans (together with all accrued interest thereon and all accrued fees payable with respect to the Commitments of such Class) will be
                            repaid or paid in full, and the Commitments of such Class (if any) terminated, as a condition to the effectiveness of such waiver, amendment or other modification, then so long as the Loans of such Class (together with such
                            accrued interest and fees) are in fact repaid or paid in full and such Commitments are in fact terminated, in each case prior to or substantially simultaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, then such Loans and
                            Commitments shall not be included in the determination of the Required Lenders with respect to such amendment.  Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, (1) no consent with respect to any waiver, amendment or other modification of
                            this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any waiver, amendment or other modification referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso of this
                            paragraph and then only in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be affected by such waiver, amendment or other modification, (2) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in
                            writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (i) to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency, (ii) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (iii) to cause any guarantee,

                            (including Mortgages) or other document to be consistent with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and each Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or (iv) to give effect to the provisions of
                              Section 2.14(b) or to amend time periods, minimum amounts and currency exchange rate calculations mechanics with respect to borrowing and payment mechanics with respect to the Revolving Commitments solely to the extent
                              necessary to implement a Permitted Foreign Currency and (3) this Agreement may be amended to provide for Incremental Extensions of Credit in the manner contemplated by Section 2.21, the extension of the Maturity Date as
                              provided in Section 2.22 and the incurrence of Refinancing Commitments and Refinancing Loans as provided in Section 2.23, in each case without any additional consents, and such amendments may effect such changes to the Loan
                              Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the existence and the terms of the Incremental Extensions of Credit, the extension of the Maturity
                              Date or the incurrence of Refinancing Commitments and Refinancing Loans, as applicable, and to the extent permitted under the terms of this Agreement, will be effective to amend the terms of this Agreement and the other
                              applicable Loan Documents (including to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the
                              other applicable Loan Documents with the other Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required
                              Lenders), in each case, without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document. 

                             

                          

                        

                        (c)     In connection with any Proposed Change requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any
                          Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any Class pursuant to clause (iv) of paragraph (b) of this Section, the consent of a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unfunded Commitments of such
                          Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this
                          Section being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender” for purposes of this clause (c)), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, require
                          such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that
                          shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) if the Administrative Agent is not such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall have received
                          the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have
                          received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (with such assignment being
                          deemed to be an optional prepayment for purposes of determining the applicability of such Section) from the assignee (in the case of such principal and accrued interest and fees or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts)),
                          (iii) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b), (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law and (v) the assignee shall
                          have given its consent to such Proposed Change and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and consents, such Proposed Change can be effected. Any assignment required
                          pursuant to this Section may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and the Lender required to make such assignment shall not be required to be a
                          party to such Assignment and Assumption.

                        (d)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Secured Party, consent to a departure by any Loan Party from any
                          covenant of such Loan Party set forth in this Agreement or any Security Document to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and
                          Guarantee Requirement”.

                         

                        (e)  The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute waivers, amendments or other modifications on behalf of such
                          Lender.  Any waiver, amendment or other modification effected in accordance with this Section, shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender.

                         

                        SECTION 9.03.  Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a)   The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable, documented and invoiced out‐of‐pocket expenses incurred by the
                          Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and their respective Affiliates (without duplication), including the reasonable fees and documented charges and disbursements of a single
                          primary counsel and to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in connection with the structuring, arrangement and syndication of the credit
                          facilities provided for herein and any credit or similar facility refinancing or replacing, in whole or in part, any of the credit facilities provided for herein, as well as the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and
                          administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any waiver, amendments or modifications of the provisions hereof or thereof, (ii) all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing
                          Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the
                          Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Arranger, including the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any of the foregoing, in connection with the enforcement or
                          protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses
                          incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

                        
                           

                        

                        (b)  The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks 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 Liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees,
                          charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of
                          special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of
                          such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee and, if reasonably necessary, of another firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a
                          single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for such affected Indemnitee)), incurred by or asserted against such Indemnitees arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any actual or prospective
                          claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to (i) the structuring, arrangement and syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this
                          Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the performance by the parties to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents of 

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          170

                        

                         their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (iii) any action taken in connection with this
                          Agreement, including, but not limited to, the payment of principal, interest and fees, (iv) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any 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) or (v) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, to
                          or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, in each
                          case, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and whether initiated against or by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing or any third party (and regardless of
                          whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto); provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to any Liabilities or related expenses to the extent they are found in a final and non-appealable
                          judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (A) the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, (B) a claim brought by the Borrower or any Subsidiary against such Indemnitee for
                          material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (C) a proceeding that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and that is brought by an
                          Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than a proceeding that is brought against the Administrative Agent or any other agent or any Arranger in its capacity or in fulfilling its roles as an agent or arranger hereunder or
                          any similar role with respect to the Indebtedness incurred or to be incurred hereunder).  This paragraph shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax
                          claim.

                         

                        (c)   To the extent that the Borrower fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid by it under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section to the Administrative Agent, any
                          Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing (and without limiting its obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as applicable,
                          such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood and agreed that the Borrower’s failure to pay any such
                          amount shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or Liability or related expense, as applicable, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative
                          Agent or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity; provided further
                          that, with respect to such unpaid amounts owed to any Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or to any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for any Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity, only the Revolving Lenders
                          shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts.  For purposes of this Section, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined by its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposure, unfunded Revolving Commitments and, except for
                          purposes of the second proviso of the immediately preceding sentence, the outstanding Term Loans and unfunded Term Commitments, in each case at that time.  The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph are subject to the
                          last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph).

                         

                        (d)   To the extent permitted by applicable law (i) the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower hereby waives, any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any
                          Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent any Issuing Bank and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) for any Liabilities arising from
                          the use by others of information or other materials (including,

                        without limitation, any personal data) obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and
                          each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
                          connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided
                          that, nothing in this Section 9.03(d) shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee, as provided in Section 9.03(b), against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted
                          against such Indemnitee by a third party.

                         

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

                         

                        SECTION 9.04.   Successors and Assigns. (a)  General.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
                          and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its
                          rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and (ii) no Lender may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance
                          with this Section.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of
                          any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section), the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and, to the extent expressly contemplated
                          hereby, the Related Parties of any of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of
                          this Agreement.

                        
                           

                        

                        
                          (b)  Assignments by Lenders.  (i)  Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees
                            all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of (A) the Borrower (such consent not to be
                            unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for assignments of Commitments or Loans of any Class to another Lender under such Class, an Affiliate of a Lender under
                            such Class or an Approved Fund and (2) if an Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, for any other assignment and delegation; provided further
                            that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment and delegation of rights and obligations unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after having
                            received notice thereof, (B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment and delegation of
                            all or any portion of a Term Commitment or Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and (C) each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in the case of any assignment and
                            delegation of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure.

                           

                        

                        
                          (ii)   Assignments and delegations shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment and delegation to a
                            Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment and delegation of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment 

                          

                          

                          
                            
                              


                            172

                          

                          or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment and delegation (determined as of the trade date specified in
                            the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment and delegation or, if no trade date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment and delegation is delivered to the
                            Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 or, in the case of an Incremental Tranche B Term Loan, $1,000,000 (treating contemporaneous assignments by or to two or more Approved Funds as a single assignment for
                            purposes of such minimum transfer amount), unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of the
                            Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default of the type set forth in Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, (B) each partial assignment and delegation shall be made as an assignment and delegation
                            of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment and delegation of a proportionate part of
                            all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans, (C) the parties to each assignment and delegation shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
                            Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that (1) only one such processing and recordation fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments and delegations by or to two
                            or more Approved Funds, (2) the Administrative Agent may waive or reduce such fee in its sole discretion and (3) with respect to any assignment and delegation pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or 9.02(c), the parties hereto agree that
                            such assignment and delegation may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need
                            not be a party thereto, and (D) the assignee shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax forms required by Section 2.17(f) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to
                            whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, State and
                            foreign securities laws.

                           

                        

                        
                          
                            (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the
                              effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned and delegated by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and
                              obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned and delegated by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this
                              Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all 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 (and subject to the obligations and limitations of) Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet been paid).  Any assignment,
                              delegation or other transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of 

                             

                            

                            
                              
                                


                              173

                            

                            this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.04(c).

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall
                              maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated
                              interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
                              notice to the contrary.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and, as to entries pertaining to it, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
                              notice.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (v) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
                              Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 2.17(f) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred
                              to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment and delegation required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the
                              information contained therein in the Register; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to accept such Assignment and Assumption or so record the information contained therein if the Administrative
                              Agent reasonably believes that such Assignment and Assumption lacks any written consent required by this Section or is otherwise not in proper form, it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or
                              obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Assumption, any such duty and
                              obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee.  No assignment or delegation shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph and,
                              following such recording, unless otherwise determined by the Administrative Agent (such determination to be made in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, which determination may be conditioned on the consent of the
                              assigning Lender and the assignee), shall be effective notwithstanding any defect in the Assignment and Assumption relating thereto.  Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and
                              Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and
                              that such Assignment and Assumption is otherwise duly completed and in proper form, and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender
                              and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is an Eligible Assignee.

                            (vi) The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be
                              deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based
                              recordkeeping system, as applicable, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and
                              Records Act or any other similar State laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        (c)  Participations.  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more Eligible
                          Assignees (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 Commitments and Loans of any Class); provided that (A) such
                          Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
                          Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) the Participant will under no circumstances (x)
                          be subrogated to, or substituted in respect of, the Lender’s claims under this Agreement and (y) have otherwise any contractual  relationship with, or rights against, the Borrower under or in relation to this Agreement.  Any
                          agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any
                          provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or
                          waiver described in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (vi) or (vii) in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant or requires the approval of all the Lenders.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be
                          entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood and agreed that the documentation required under
                          Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment and delegation pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that
                          such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or
                          2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such participation was made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  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 2.19(b) with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by
                          law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document (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 this Agreement or
                          any other 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

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          175

                        

                        Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register
                          as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no
                          responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

                         

                        (d)  Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, at any time pledge or assign a security interest
                          in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than to a natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other
                          “central” bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
                          hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

                         

                        (e)  Purchasing Borrower Parties.  Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definition of “Eligible
                          Assignee”), any Lender may assign and delegate all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party (x) through open market purchases made by such Purchasing Borrower Party on a non-pro rata basis (subject to clause
                          (v) below) or (y) otherwise in accordance with clauses (i) through (vii) below (which assignment and delegation, in the case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y) will not constitute a prepayment of Loans for any purposes of this
                          Agreement and the other Loan Documents); provided that, in the case of assignments and delegations made pursuant to the foregoing clause (y):

                         

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

                           

                        

                        
                          
                            (ii) each Auction Purchase Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this paragraph and the Auction
                              Procedures;

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iii) the assigning Lender and Purchasing Borrower Party purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall
                              execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption;

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iv) for the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders shall not be permitted to assign or delegate Revolving Commitments or Revolving Exposure to a Purchasing
                              Borrower Party;

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            
                              
                                (v) to the extent permitted by applicable law, any Term Loans assigned and delegated to any Purchasing Borrower Party shall be automatically and
                                  permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and delegation and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder (it being understood and agreed that (A) except as expressly set forth
                                  in any such definition, any gains or losses by any Purchasing Borrower Party upon purchase or acquisition and cancellation of such Term Loans shall not be taken into account in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow,
                                  Consolidated Net Income and Consolidated EBITDA and (B) any purchase of Term Loans pursuant to this

                                paragraph (f) shall not constitute a voluntary prepayment of Term Loans for purposes of this Agreement); 

                              

                            

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (vi) the applicable Assignment and Assumption shall include or be supplemented by a customary “big boy” representation from each of the Purchasing Borrower
                              Party and the assignee or assignor, as the case may be (it being agreed that no Purchasing Borrower Party shall be required to make a representation as to absence of MNPI); and

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (vii) no Purchasing Borrower Party may use the proceeds from Revolving Loans to purchase any Term Loans.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          (f)  [Reserved].

                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.05.    Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in
                          the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution
                          and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that
                          the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
                          representation or warranty at the time this Agreement or any other Loan Document is executed and delivered or 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 LC Exposure is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the
                          foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing
                          Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result
                          of the obligations of the Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that
                          names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the
                          other Loan Documents, and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05(d) or 2.05(e). The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16,
                          2.17, 2.18(e) and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment or prepayment of the Loans, the expiration or
                          termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.06.    Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different
                          counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees
                          payable to the Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
                          understandings, oral or written, relating to the

                        subject matter hereof.  Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have
                          received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
                          and assigns.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) any Loan Document and/or (y) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered
                          pursuant to Section 9.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”)



                          that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
                          Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or
                          any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an
                          image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system,
                          as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided,
                          further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such
                          Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of
                          the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature  shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby (i) agrees that, for all
                          purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, Electronic
                          Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement,  any other Loan Document and/or any
                          Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (ii) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any
                          other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document
                          (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (iii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the
                          legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary
                          Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iv) waives any claim against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s
                          reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result
                          of the failure of the Borrower to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

                        SECTION 9.07.   Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
                          ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
                          particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.08.  Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank 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) or other amounts at any time held and
                          other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations then due of the Borrower now or hereafter
                          existing under this Agreement held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations of the Borrower
                          are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness.  Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and
                          the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this
                          Section.  The rights of each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or such Issuing Bank may have.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.09.   Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a)  This Agreement and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in
                          contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

                        
                           

                        

                        (b) The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not, and will not permit any controlled Subsidiary to, commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any
                          kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing in any way relating to this
                          Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and of the United States District Court for the
                          Southern District of New York (or if such court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan), and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties
                          hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any action, litigation or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such
                          New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court.  Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation 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 shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to
                          bring any action, litigation or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or any of its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

                         

                        (c)  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any
                          action, litigation or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any 

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          179

                        

                        other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by 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 service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01.  Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the
                          right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

                         

                        SECTION 9.10.   WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY 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 OR RELATING TO 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.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.11.   Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement
                          and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

                        
                          

                          

                        

                        SECTION 9.12.  Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as
                          defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors, it being understood and agreed that the Persons to whom such disclosure is
                          made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential and any failure of such Persons acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the
                          relevant Lender to comply with this Section shall constitute a breach of this Section by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the relevant Lender, as applicable, (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory
                          authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable
                          laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (provided, that to the extent practicable and permitted by law, the Borrower has been notified prior to such disclosure so that the Borrower may seek, at the
                          Borrower’s sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any suit,
                          action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, provided that each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable

                        relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower
                          or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided
                          for herein, (h) with the consent of the Borrower, (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any
                          Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary, which source is not known by the recipient of such information to be subject
                          to a confidentiality obligation or (j) to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower or its Obligations. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any
                          Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or their businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to
                          disclosure by the Borrower.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same
                          degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.13.  Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation
                          in any LC Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed
                          the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender or Issuing Bank holding such Loan or LC Disbursement or participation therein 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 or LC Disbursement or participation therein but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender
                          or Issuing Bank in respect of other Loans or LC Disbursements or participation therein or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the
                          Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender or Issuing Bank.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.14.  Release of Liens and Guarantees. Subject to the reinstatement provisions set forth in any applicable Security Document, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests
                          created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Loan Party shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Loan Party ceases to be a
                          Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary (or in case the Borrower elects that any Designated Subsidiary that would otherwise constitute an Excluded Subsidiary cease to be a Designated Subsidiary); provided
                          that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders (or if applicable, the Lenders) shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise; provided, further,
                          however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Required Lenders, no Loan Party that is a Restricted Subsidiary shall be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents if such Loan Party
                          becomes an Excluded Subsidiary solely pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Excluded Subsidiary” solely by virtue of a disposition of Equity Interests (unless, for the avoidance of doubt, another clause of the definition of
                          “Excluded Subsidiary” is then applicable), unless such disposition is a good faith 

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          181

                        

                        disposition to a bona-fide unaffiliated third party whose primary purpose is not the release of the Guarantee and obligations of such Loan Party under the Loan Documents.  Upon any sale or other
                          transfer by any Loan Party (other than to the Borrower or any other Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security
                          interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released.  Upon the release of any Loan
                          Party from its Guarantee in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest in any Collateral owned by such Loan Party created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released.  Upon the designation of a Restricted
                          Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest created by the Security Documents in the Equity Interests of such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be automatically released.  On the
                          date on which all (1) Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than (x) Secured Hedging Obligations not yet due and payable, (y) Secured Cash Management Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent
                          indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable) and (2) all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated (other than Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized or backstopped in an amount, by an institution
                          and otherwise pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank), all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests under the Security Documents shall be automatically released.  In
                          connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, and in connection with any Collateral becoming Excluded Property, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s
                          expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to file or register in any office, or to evidence, such termination or release, or, in the case of Collateral becoming Excluded Property, to effect, to file or
                          register in any office, or to evidence the release of any security interest created by the Security Documents in such assets.  Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or
                          warranty by the Administrative Agent.  Each of the Secured Parties irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to effect the releases set forth in this Section.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.15.  Certain Notices. Each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan
                          Party that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the
                          name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the
                          Beneficial Ownership Regulation, and each Loan Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to such Lender, such Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, as applicable.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.16.   No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrower, on behalf of itself and its subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions
                          contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower, the Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the
                          Documentation Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the
                          Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their respective Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such
                          transactions or communications.  The Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or
                          the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that 

                         

                        

                        
                          
                            


                          182

                        

                        involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the
                          Documentation Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their respective Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, the Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates.  To the
                          fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it or any of its Affiliates may have against the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation
                          Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

                        
                           

                        

                        SECTION 9.17.  Non-Public Information. (a)  Each Lender acknowledges that all information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower
                          or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI.  Each Lender represents to the Borrower and the
                          Administrative Agent that (i) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and that it will handle MNPI in accordance with such procedures and applicable law, including Federal, State and foreign securities
                          laws, and (ii) it has identified in its Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain MNPI in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal, State and
                          foreign securities laws.

                        
                          

                          

                        

                        (b)  The Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that, if information furnished the Borrower pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement is being distributed by the
                          Administrative Agent through the Platform, (i) the Administrative Agent may post any information that the Borrower has indicated as containing MNPI solely on that portion of the Platform as is designated for Lenders’ employees and
                          representatives willing to receive such MNPI (such employees and representatives, “Private-Siders”); and (ii) if the Borrower has not indicated whether any information furnished by it pursuant to or in connection with this
                          Agreement contains MNPI, the Administrative Agent reserves the right to post such information solely on that portion of the Platform as is designated for Private-Siders.  The Borrower agrees to clearly designate all information
                          provided to the Administrative Agent by or on behalf of the Borrower that is suitable to be made available to Lenders’ public-side employees and representatives who do not wish to receive MNPI (such employees and representatives,
                          “Public-Siders”), and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on any such designation by the Borrower without liability or responsibility for the independent verification thereof.

                         

                        
                          SECTION 9.18.  Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any
                            other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender or Issuing Bank that is an Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may
                            be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

                        

                        
                           

                        

                        
                          (a)  the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any
                            Lender or Issuing Bank party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

                           

                        

                        (b)  the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

                         

                        
                          (i)  a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

                           

                          
                            
                              


                            183

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent
                              entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability
                              under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          
                            (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution
                              Authority.

                             

                            

                          

                        

                        
                          SECTION 9.19.  Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in
                            one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the
                            Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall,
                            notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be
                            discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking
                            procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in the Agreement
                            Currency, the Borrower agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss.  If the amount of the
                            Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who
                            may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).

                        

                        
                           

                        

                        
                          SECTION 9.20. Cashless Settlement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a
                            portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the
                            Administrative Agent and such Lender.

                        

                        
                          

                          

                        

                        SECTION 9.21.  Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging
                          Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power
                          of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S.
                            Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by

                          Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such
                            Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support
                            (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to
                            a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are
                            permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a
                            state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party
                            with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
