(b) This Agreement and the other Financing Documents are the result of negotiations among the parties hereto and their respective
counsel. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Financing Documents shall be deemed the product of all parties hereto or thereto, as the case may be, and no ambiguity in this Agreement, or any Financing Document shall be construed in favor of or
against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Arranger Party or any Lender Party that is a party hereto. 
 (c) All
accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made, and all financial statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
as in effect from time to time, applied on a basis consistent (except for changes concurred in by the Borrower’s independent public accountants) with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
delivered to the Lenders (“GAAP”); provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower wishes to amend the covenant in Section 5.03 to eliminate the effect of any change in generally
accepted accounting principles on the operation of such covenant (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders wish to amend Section 5.03 for such purpose), then the Borrower’s compliance with such
covenant shall be determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in effect immediately before the relevant change in generally accepted accounting principles became effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such
covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower and the Required Lenders.

 SECTION 1.03. Letter of Credit. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to
the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to mean the stated face amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms
of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all
increases thereof, whether or not such maximum face amount is in effect at such time. 
 ARTICLE II 

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES 

AND LETTERS OF CREDIT 

SECTION 2.01. The Advances. (a) Advance. Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth,
to make advances (each, an “Advance”) in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Final Maturity Date in an amount for each such Advance not to exceed
such Lender’s Unused Commitment at such time; provided that after giving effect to any Borrowing, (i) the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Facility, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Advances of
any Lender plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall consist of Advances of the same Type made simultaneously by the Lenders ratably according to their Commitments. Within the limits of each Lender’s Unused Commitment in effect from time to time, the
Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). 

(b) Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon
the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in Section 2.03, (A) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to make L/C Credit Extensions for the account of
the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(a)(i) and (ii), and (B) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit issued by it; and (ii) the
Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries and any L/C Borrowings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter
of Credit, (x) the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Facility and (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Advances of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations, shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance of, or an amendment to increase the amount of, any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit
Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be
fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 

 


					
		  	30	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (c) Letters of Credit Generally. (i) No Issuing Bank shall issue any Letter of
Credit if the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry date; provided that in no event shall the expiry date of any requested
Letter of Credit occur on or after the Business Day immediately preceding April 30, 2013. 
 (ii) No Issuing
Bank shall be under any Obligation to make any L/C Credit Extension if: 
 (A) any order, judgment or decree of
any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Applicable Law to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force
of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of Letters of Credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon
such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank
any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; 

(B) the making of such L/C Credit Extension would violate any Applicable Laws; 

(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is in an initial
face amount less than $100,000; 
 (D) such L/C Credit Extension is to be denominated in a currency other than
Dollars; 
 (E) such L/C Credit Extension contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated
amount after any L/C Borrowing thereunder; or 
 (F) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under
Section 2.03 exists, or any Lender is then a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Lender.

 (iii) No Issuing Bank shall amend any Letter of Credit if such Issuing Bank would not be permitted at such
time to make such L/C Credit Extension in its amended form under the terms hereof. 
  


					
		  	31	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (iv) No Issuing Bank shall be under the obligation to amend any Letter of
Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such
Letter of Credit. 
 SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03, each
Borrowing shall be made on notice, given by the Borrower not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or not
later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or
electronic mail. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or telecopier or electronic mail, in substantially the form of Exhibit B, specifying therein
the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest
Period for each such Advance. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s
Account, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitment of such Lender and the other Lenders. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon
fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower, by crediting the Borrowing Account; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall first make
a portion of such funds equal to the aggregate principal amount of any L/C Borrowings made by any Issuing Bank and by any Lender, as the case may be, and outstanding on the date of such Borrowing, plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to
and as of such date, available to such Issuing Bank or such other Lender, as the case may be, for repayment of such L/C Borrowing. 

(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances
for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $2,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.12 and (ii) the Advances may not
be outstanding as part of more than fifteen separate Borrowings. 
 (c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and
binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the Borrower has specified in the related Notice of Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense
incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated
profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such
failure, is not made on such date. 
 (d) Subject to the Administrative Agent giving prompt notice of the relevant Notice of
Borrowing received by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders, unless the 
  


					
		  	32	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender prior to the date of the Borrowing requested under such Notice of Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection
(a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available
to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available
to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and
(ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes.

 (e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other
Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

 SECTION 2.03. Issuance of Letters of Credit; Drawings and Reimbursements; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit; Funding of
Participations. (a) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to
an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by such Issuing
Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least one (1) Business Day (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in their sole
discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the
respective Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof (which date shall be not later than the earlier of
(1) the date which is twelve (12) months after the proposed issuance date and (2) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (or such later date as may be agreed by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.01(c)(i)); (D) the name
and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder;
and (G) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the respective
Issuing Bank (w) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (x) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (y) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (z) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may
require. 
  


					
		  	33	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or
amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as each such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent may require. 
 (ii) Promptly
after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and,
if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the
requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article III shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on
the requested date, make an L/C Credit Extension for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately
upon the making of each L/C Credit Extension, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a risk participation in such L/C Credit Extension in an amount equal to the product
of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such L/C Credit Extension. 
 (iii) If the Borrower so requests
in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to make an L/C Credit Extension that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of
Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of
Credit) or upon notice to such Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower of an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary, by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day
(the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by such Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a
specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of
Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (or such later date as may be agreed by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.01(c)(i)); provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not
permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the
provisions of Section 2.01(c)(i), or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative
Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent or any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such
case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension. 
  


					
		  	34	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of
Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, such Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment thereof. 

(b) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of
any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the date of any payment by such Issuing Bank under a Letter of
Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such Issuing
Bank by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof.
In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in
Section 2.01 for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the other conditions set forth in Section 2.01 and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing). Any notice
given by such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the
conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 (ii) Each Lender (including the Lender acting as Issuing Bank) shall upon
any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent’s Account in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not
later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(b)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have
made a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to such Issuing Bank. 

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances because the conditions
set forth in Section 3.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing
shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus (B) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, plus
(C) 2% per annum. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C
Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. 

(iv) Until each Lender funds its Advance or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(b) to reimburse such Issuing Bank for any
amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such drawing shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Bank. 
  



					
		  	35	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Advances or L/C Advances to reimburse any Issuing
Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(b), shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse any Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under any Letter
of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 
 (vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent
for the account of any Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(b) by the time specified in Section 2.03(b)(ii), such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover
from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Bank at a rate
per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of such Issuing Bank submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(b)(vi) shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (c) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after an Issuing Bank has
made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(b), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Bank
any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will
distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the
Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank pursuant
to Section 2.03(b)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 2.12 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
 (d) Role of Issuing Bank. Each Lender and the
Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by any Letter of Credit) or to
ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent nor any of the respective correspondents,
participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders,

  


					
		  	36	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any
document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to any Letter of Credit; provided,
however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Bank,
the Administrative Agent, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(j);
provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any
direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any
Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an Issuing Bank may
accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of
any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 

(e) Cash Collateral. (i) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the request of the
Administrative Agent, (A) if an Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (or, if the
expiry date of such Letter of Credit is after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (as may be agreed by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.01(c)(i)), as of such later expiry date), any Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding
and partially or wholly undrawn, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing or the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date (or such later date as may be agreed by the Lenders in accordance with Section 2.01(c)(i)), as the case may be). 

(ii) At the request of the Administrative Agent (the Administrative Agent hereby agreeing to make such request upon a
request from any Issuing Bank), if (A) there is at any time a Defaulting Lender, and (B) (I) one or more Letters of Credit are then outstanding or (II) an Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter
of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing that is then outstanding, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall immediately (x) repay to each Issuing Bank such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such L/C Borrowing,
together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such repayment and (y) Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit. 

 


					
		  	37	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (iii) The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of each Issuing Bank and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances held in the Cash Collateral Account and all proceeds of the foregoing. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are
on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under Applicable Law, to reimburse each Issuing Bank. 

(f) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by an Issuing Bank and the Borrower upon issuing an L/C
Credit Extension, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at
the time of issuance, shall apply to each Trade Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of
any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 
 (h) Letters
of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any Obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank
hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the L/C Credit Extensions for the account of Subsidiaries inure to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives
substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 
 (i) Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank shall
furnish (A) to the Administrative Agent on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of L/C Credit Extensions issued during the preceding month and drawings during such month under each
Letter of Credit and (B) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate L/C Obligations during the preceding calendar quarter of all
Letters of Credit. 
 (j) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse each Issuing Bank for each
drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Financing
Document; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or
any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection
with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

 


					
		  	38	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to
make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) any payment by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit
against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit (so long as such draft or certificate substantially complies with such terms); or any payment made by such Issuing Bank under such
Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of
Credit; or 
 (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing,
including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower. 

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it pursuant to
Section 2.03(a)(iv) and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any
such claim against the Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (k) Liability.
The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither any Issuing Bank, any of its Affiliates, nor any of its respective officers,
directors, agents, employees, attorneys and advisors shall be liable or responsible for: (i) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (ii) the
validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (iii) payment by such Issuing Bank against
presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to any Letter of Credit; or (iv) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or
failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by
the Borrower that the Borrower proves were primarily caused by (A) such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether
documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (B) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

issued by such Issuing Bank, and upon such payments, the obligations of such Lender hereunder with respect to such Unused Commitment which have been terminated shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged; provided, however,

Base Rate Advances and three Business Days’ notice in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if the notice is given the
Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount
prepaid; provided that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $2,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) if any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Advance is made on a

Section 2.06, the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank all accrued fees, costs and expenses, accrued interest thereon, if any, and any other amounts due under the Financing Documents in respect of the principal amount of
the Advances or L/C Borrowings so prepaid, including pursuant to Section 8.04(e).

(a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender from
the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum: 

(i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal
at all times to the sum of (A) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (B) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date during such periods and on the date such Base Rate
Advance shall be Converted or paid in full. 
 (ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances. During such periods as such
Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (B) the Applicable
Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the
date of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

 (c) Notice of Interest Period and Interest Rate. Promptly after receipt of a Notice
of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a), a Notice of Conversion/Continuation pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period”, in
each case from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender of the applicable Interest Period and the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of clause (a)(i) or
(a)(ii) above. 
 SECTION 2.08. Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders a commitment fee from the
date hereof, in the case of each Initial Lender, and from the effective date specified in either a joinder agreement pursuant to Section 2.16 or the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other
Lender, until the Final Maturity Date, commencing on the Closing Date, and payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each Quarterly Date and on the Final Maturity Date, at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily
Unused Commitment of such Lender during such fiscal quarter; provided, however, that no commitment fee shall accrue on the Unused Commitment of a Defaulting Lender during any period that such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. 

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with
its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily
maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due
and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each Quarterly Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand; provided,
however, that no Letter of Credit Fee shall accrue on the Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit of a Defaulting Lender during any period that such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any payment-related Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances plus 2%. 

(c) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Banks, Etc. The Borrower shall pay directly to the
relevant Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued hereunder in the amount to be agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank of the L/C Obligations (whether or not such maximum
amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit) (the “Fronting Fee”). The Fronting Fee shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and shall be due and payable on each Quarterly Date, commencing with the first
such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall, with respect to all Letters of Credit issued at its request, pay directly to each
Issuing Bank for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Bank relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees
and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
  


					
		  	42	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (d) The Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and such Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 2.09. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, under the Notes and
under any Financing Document owing to any Lender Party, in full, and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in immediately available funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if the payment by (or for the account of) the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and
under the Notes to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and
(ii) if such payment is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;
provided, that with respect to any prepayment, if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender at the time of any such prepayment, such prepayment of the Advances shall, if the Administrative Agent so directs at the time of making such prepayment, be
applied to the Advances of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Advances outstanding and the outstanding Advances of such Defaulting Lender were zero until such time as the proportion (expressed as a fraction) of the principal amount
outstanding of all Advances owed to each Lender (including Defaulting Lenders) is equal to the Pro Rata Share of such Lender. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register
pursuant to Section 8.07(e), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party
assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. 

(b) All payments under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents to the Administrative Agent (whether for its own account or for
the account of any Lender Party) shall be made to such Administrative Agent. 
 (c) The Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender
Party and each of its Affiliates, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party by the Borrower is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under its Note or Notes, to charge from time to time, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, against any or all of the Borrower’s accounts with such Lender Party or such Affiliate any amount so due. 

(d) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366
days, as the case may be, and all 
  


					
		  	43	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days
(including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (e) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall
be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the
case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

 (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is
due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the
Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such
Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 
 (g)
If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations under the Financing Documents under circumstances for which the Financing Documents do not specify the Advances or the Facility to which, or the manner in which, such
funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each Lender Party ratably in accordance with such Lender Party’s proportionate share of the principal amount of all
outstanding Advances and the L/C Obligations then outstanding, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Advances or other Obligations owed to such Lender Party, and for application to such principal installments, as the Administrative
Agent shall direct; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable to any Lender Party with respect to any such distribution by the Administrative Agent. 

(h) If any Lender Party shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or
otherwise), other than pursuant to Section 2.10, 2.12 or 2.13, as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 8.07, as a result of the payment of an Amendment Fee which has been offered to or is available to all Lender Parties on the
same terms or payments made pursuant to Section 2.08(a), 2.08(b) or 2.09(a) during any period that any Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at
such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender
Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and 
  


					
		  	44	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to
such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the
Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time
obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall
be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from
each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price
paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
other Lender Party’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The
Borrower agrees that any Lender Party so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.09 may, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment
(including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the
case may be. 
 SECTION 2.10. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of
or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its
obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each
Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of such Lender to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its
internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to continue to perform its obligations to make
Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 

SECTION 2.11. Interest Elections. (a) Optional. (i) The Borrower may on any Business Day elect to Convert all or
any portion of the Advances comprising the same Borrowing from one Type into Advances of the other Type, and in the case of Eurodollar Rate 

 


					
		  	45	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Advances, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.11. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of any Borrowing, in which
case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments. At no time shall the total number of different Interest Periods for all Eurodollar Rate Advances outstanding exceed fifteen. 

(ii) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.11(a), the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior written notice
(or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) by telecopier or electronic mail (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) of the Conversion or Continuation, as the case may be, (i) by 11:00 a.m. (New York City time)
on the requested date of a Conversion into Base Rate Advances and (ii) by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) three Business Days prior to a Continuation of or Conversion into Eurodollar Rate Advances; provided, however, that any
Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not
less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b), no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b) and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing
shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments. Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) if different options are being elected with respect to different portions of
the relevant Borrowing, the portions thereof that are to be allocated to each resulting election (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (C) and (D) shall be specified for each resulting portion); (B) the
effective date of the election made pursuant to such Notice of Conversion/Continuation, which shall be a Business Day; (C) whether the resulting Borrowings are to be comprised of Base Rate Advances or Eurodollar Rate Advances; and (D) if
the resulting Borrowings are to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Interest Period applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period”. If
any such Notice of Conversion/Continuation requests that the relevant Borrowing be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances but does not specify an Interest Period, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. Each
Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 
 (iii) If, on the expiration of any
Interest Period in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, then, unless such Advances are repaid as provided herein, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to
Convert such Advances to Base Rate Advances. No Advances may be Converted into, or Continued as, Eurodollar Rate Advances if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, unless the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have
otherwise consented in writing. 
 (iv) Upon receipt of any Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s ratable share of each election. 
 (b)
Mandatory. (i) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $2,000,000, such Advances shall
automatically Convert into Base Rate Advances. 
  


					
		  	46	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (ii) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any
Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made to it in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders,
whereupon each such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance. 

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (A) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically,
on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended. 

SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way
of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of agreeing to maintain or participate
in the L/C Credit Extensions or of agreeing to make or of making or funding or maintaining L/C Credit Extensions (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.12, any such increased costs resulting from (A) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which
Section 2.13 shall govern) and (B) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has
its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost; provided, however, that a Lender Party claiming additional amounts under this Section 2.12(a) agrees to use reasonable
efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost that
may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) If any Lender Party determines that compliance with any
law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or
any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to participate in the making of L/C Credit Extensions hereunder and other
commitments of such type or the maintenance of or participation in the L/C Credit Extensions (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent),
the Borrower shall pay to the 
  


					
		  	47	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such
circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to participate in the L/C Credit Extensions or to the issuance or
maintenance of or participation in L/C Credit Extensions. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for
any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and
the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Required Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 

SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes shall be made, in accordance with
Section 2.09, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future withholding taxes, including levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case
of each Lender Party and the Administrative Agent, (i) taxes imposed on (or measured by) its overall net income, or any franchise taxes or similar taxes imposed for the privilege of carrying on a business in corporate form (other than taxes
imposed as a result of entering into this Agreement or any other Financing Document and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby), or taxes measured by its net worth or shareholder’s capital, by the United States, or by the jurisdiction
under the laws of which such recipient is organized or in which its Applicable Lending Office is located, (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which the Applicable
Lending Office of any Lender Party is located and (iii) withholding taxes excluded pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.13 (all such non-excluded taxes, including levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities
in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes being hereinafter referred to as “Covered Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Covered Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or
under any Note to any Lender Party or the Administrative Agent, (A) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as may be necessary so that after the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made,
(B) the Borrower shall make all such deductions and (C) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law. 

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or
similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or from the execution, delivery or registration 

 


					
		  	48	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Financing Document, but excluding all other U.S. federal taxes other than withholding taxes (hereinafter referred
to as “Other Taxes”). If revised disclosure regulations under Section 6011 of the Code are issued which modify the definition of a “reportable transaction” so that it does not include a transaction where
the issuer of a debt instrument provides an indemnity for taxes, in addition to withholding taxes imposed on interest paid on the debt instrument, for purposes of subsections (a) and (b) of this Section 2.13, the terms
“Covered Taxes” and “Other Taxes” shall include all such taxes (other than any taxes described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 2.13(a) above), whether or not collected by way of withholding.

 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender Party and the Administrative Agent for and hold them harmless against the full
amount of Covered Taxes and Other Taxes, and for the full amount of taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13, imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent (as the case may
be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent
(as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 
 (d) As soon as practicable (but in no event later than 90 days) after
the date of any payment of Covered Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment. Excluding payments made by the
Administrative Agent, in the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes by or on behalf of the Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of the Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if
the Borrower determines that no Covered Taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative
Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Covered Taxes. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.13, the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall
have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code. 
 (e) Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a
jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender
Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower with two duly completed copies of (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or any successor form thereto, certifying that the payments received from the Borrower hereunder are effectively connected with such Lender Party’s
conduct of a trade or business in the United States; or (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or any successor form thereto, certifying that such Lender Party is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is
a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest; or (iii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or any successor form thereto, together with a certificate stating that (1) the Lender Party is not a bank for
purposes of Code Section 881(c)(3)(A), or the obligation of the Borrower hereunder is not, with respect to such Lender 
  



					
		  	49	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Party, pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, within the meaning of that Section; (2) the Lender Party is not a 10% shareholder of the
Borrower within the meaning of Code Section 871(h)(3) or 881(c)(3)(B); and (3) the Lender Party is not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to the Borrower within the meaning of Code Section 881(c)(3)(C); or (iv) such
other governmental forms as may be applicable to the Lender Party, including Forms W-8IMY or W-8EXP, which will reduce the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest. Each Lender Party organized under the laws of the United States that is not a
corporation shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each
other Lender Party, and from time to time as requested in writing by the Borrower, provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. Each Lender Party shall deliver such
forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender Party (but only to the extent such Lender Party is lawfully able to do so). Each such Lender Party shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time that
it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the Internal Revenue Service for such purpose). If the forms provided by a Lender Party
at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Covered Taxes unless and until such Lender
Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Covered Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at
the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.13 in respect of United
States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term “Covered Taxes” shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise
includable in Covered Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than
information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required by the applicable Internal Revenue Service form (or related certificate described above), that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender
Party shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. 

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrower with the
appropriate form described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring after the date on which a form originally was required to be provided or if such form otherwise is not required under
subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.13 with respect to Covered Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided
that should a Lender Party become subject to Covered Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such
Covered Taxes. 
  


					
		  	50	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 (g) Any Lender Party claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this
Section 2.13 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office or Domestic Lending Office if the making of such a change
would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party. 

(h) If any Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has actually and finally realized, by reason of a refund, deduction
or credit of any Covered Taxes paid or reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to subsection (a) or (c) above in respect of payments under the Financing Documents, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained, and that
would result in the total payments under this Section 2.13 exceeding the amount needed to make such Lender Party whole, such Lender Party shall pay to the Borrower, with reasonable promptness following the date on which it actually realizes
such benefit, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such benefit or the amount of such excess, in each case net of all out-of-pocket expenses in securing such refund, deduction or credit. 

SECTION 2.14. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender Party shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or
accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender Party resulting from the Advances or L/C Credit Extensions and/or L/C Borrowings owing to such Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest
payable and paid to such Lender Party from time to time hereunder. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender Party to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other
evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender Party to evidence (whether for purposes of enforcement or otherwise) the Advances or L/C Borrowings owing to, or to be made by, such Lender Party, the Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver to such Lender Party, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Note, in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, payable to the order of such Lender Party in a principal amount equal to the Advances and/or L/C
Borrowings owing to, or to be made by, such Lender Party. All references to Notes in the Financing Documents shall mean Notes, if any, issued hereunder. 

(b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(e) shall include a control account, and a
subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Advance or L/C Advance or L/C Borrowing made hereunder (or deemed to be made hereunder), whether such Advance or L/C
Borrowing bears interest at the Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto; (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it; (iii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender Party; and (iv) the amount of any sums received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender Party’s share
thereof. 
 (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above,
and by each Lender Party in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of
the Register, each Lender Party and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender Party, under this 
  


					
		  	51	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect,
in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.15. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances and issuances of any Letter of Credit shall be available (and the
Borrower agrees that it shall use proceeds of Advances made to it and each Letter of Credit issued at its request) solely for general corporate purposes. 

SECTION 2.16. Request for Commitments. (a) Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which
shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may, from time to time, request an increase in the Facility by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding $100,000,000; provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in
a minimum amount of $25,000,000, and (ii) the Borrower may make a maximum of four such requests. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each
Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to
increase its Commitment and, if so, whether in an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to make any increase
pursuant to this Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. Subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld) and each Issuing Bank (in its sole discretion), the Borrower may invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its
counsel. 
 (b) If the Facility is increased in accordance with this Section 2.16, the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Commitment Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of
such increase and the Commitment Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the Commitment Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed
by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that: (A) before and after giving effect to such increase, the
representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in Article IV of this Agreement and the other Financing Documents are true and correct on and as of the Commitment Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.16, the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01(f) shall be deemed to
refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.04, (B) before and after giving effect to such commitments, no Default exists, and (C) all Governmental Approvals necessary for the Borrower to so increase
the Facility have been obtained, are in full force and effect. The Borrower shall prepay any Advances outstanding on the Commitment Effective Date 

 


					
		  	52	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
(and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.04(d)) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Advances ratable with the revised Pro Rata Share arising from any
nonratable increase in the Commitment under this Section 2.16. 
 (c) This Section shall supersede any provisions in
Section 2.09(h) and 8.01 to the contrary.

 ARTICLE IV 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

(a) Due Incorporation. The Borrower (i) is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and (ii) has all requisite corporate power and authority (including all Governmental Approvals) to carry on its business as now conducted, except, in the case of clause (ii) only, where the failure
to so qualify or be so licensed, or to have such power and authority, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Authorization; No Conflict. The execution, delivery and performance by it of each Financing Document to which it is or is to
be a party, and the consummation of the Transactions, are within its corporate powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, and do not and will not (i) contravene its Constituent Documents, (ii) violate any law,
rule, regulation (including Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award, (iii) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default or
require any payment to be made under, any material contract, loan agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other instrument binding on or affecting it or any of its properties or (iv) except for any Liens created under this
Agreement, result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of its Assets, except where, in the case of clauses (i) through (iv), the violation of any such Constituent Documents, law, rule, regulation,
permit, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award, breach of any such contract, loan agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other instrument, or creation or imposition of such Lien, could not be reasonably
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Governmental Approvals. No authorization or approval or other action
by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery, recordation, filing or performance by the Borrower of any Financing Document to which it is or is to be a party, or

force and effect, are held in the name of the Borrower and are free from any conditions or requirements that have not been satisfied, and are required to be satisfied, on or prior to the dates as of which this representation and warranty is made or
reaffirmed and (ii) as disclosed on Schedule 4.01(c). 
 (d) Validity & Enforceability. This Agreement has

similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity. 
 (e)
Litigation. There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding, including any Environmental Action, which has commenced against it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties or to its knowledge, pending
(but not yet commenced) or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against it or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties before any Governmental Authority that (i) except for Disclosed Matters, if adversely
determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than the matters described on Schedule 4.01(e) (the “Disclosed Litigation”)) or (ii) affects or could reasonably be expected to affect the
legality, validity or enforceability of any Financing Document or the consummation of the Transactions.

prepared in accordance with GAAP (subject, in the case of interim financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes), and fairly presents in all material respects the financial condition and results of
operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof. Except (A) for Disclosed Matters or (B) as set forth in Schedule 4.01(f), since the date of the most recent financial statements delivered under this Agreement, no
event, condition, occurrence or circumstance has existed or has occurred and is continuing which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

modified or otherwise supplemented by information so provided) any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were, are or will
be made, not misleading; provided that to the extent any such information, exhibit or report was based upon or constitutes a forecast or projection, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith on the basis of
the assumptions stated therein, which assumptions were believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time (it being understood that such forecasts or projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond
the Borrower’s control, and that the Borrower makes no representation as to the attainability of such forecasts or projections or as to whether such forecasts or projections will be achieved or will materialize).

Laws and Environmental Permits, (B) all past non-compliance with such Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits has been resolved without material ongoing obligations or costs and (C) no circumstances exist that could reasonably be

transferability under any Environmental Law. 
 (ii) Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.01(k) or in AYE’s filings with the
SEC or as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (A) none of the properties currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is listed or proposed for listing on the NPL or on the
CERCLIS or any analogous foreign, state or local list, (B) to its knowledge, there are no and never have been any unlawful underground or aboveground storage tanks or any unlawful surface impoundments, septic tanks, pits, sumps or lagoons in

Subsidiaries, and (C) Hazardous Materials have not been released, discharged or disposed of on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 7.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other

other applicable Financing Document do not unambiguously mandate the action the Administrative Agent is to take or not to take in connection therewith under the circumstances then existing, or the Administrative Agent is in doubt as to what action
it is required to take or not to take, the Administrative Agent (other than with respect to the Administrative Agent’s actions required under the final sentence of Section 7.01(a)) shall be entitled to refrain from taking any action until
directed otherwise in writing by a request signed jointly by the Required Lenders or by order of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(b) No Obligation. None of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents shall be construed to require the
Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, at the request or direction of the Borrower or any Lender Party, (i) if any action it has been requested or directed to take would be contrary to Applicable Law,
or (ii) unless the Administrative Agent shall have been offered security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction (including
interest thereon from the time incurred until reimbursed).

Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

primarily from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective
whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and
whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, attorneys and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facility, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or any
Letter of Credit, the Financing Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Financing Documents. 
 (c) The
indemnities provided by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the expiration, cancellation, termination or modification of this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, and
the provision of any subsequent or additional indemnity by any Person.

 (d) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made
by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.11(b) or 2.12(c), acceleration of the maturity of the
Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if the Borrower fails to make any payment or prepayment of an Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to

Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party any amounts required to compensate such Lender Party for any additional
losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of
the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender Party to fund or maintain such Advances.

hereafter existing under the Financing Documents, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note or Notes and although such Obligations may be unmatured. The
Administrative Agent and each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section 8.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that the Administrative Agent,
such Lender Party and their respective Affiliates may have. 
 SECTION 8.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become
effective at such time as it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender Party that such Initial Lender Party has executed it and thereafter shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest
herein without the prior written consent of the Lender Parties.

 SECTION 8.07. Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender Party may and, if
requested by the Borrower (following (i) a demand by such Lender Party for the payment of additional compensation pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.13, (ii) an assertion by such Lender Party pursuant to Section 2.10 that it is
unlawful for such Lender Party to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or (iii) a failure by such Lender Party to approve any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 8.01, provided that such amendment or waiver would otherwise have been
effective but for such Lender Party’s failure, together with the failure of any other Lender Party to which the Borrower has made a similar request under this clause (a), to approve such amendment or waiver, provided further that, with
respect to clause (iii), such failure to approve shall have continued for a period of not less than five Business Days following written notice by the Borrower to such Lender Party of such request by the Borrower), shall assign to one or more
Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it, L/C Credit Extensions and the Note or Notes held by it), including any pledge or
assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations of such Lender under and in respect of

in excess thereof; provided that Related Funds shall be combined for purposes of determining compliance with such minimum assignment amounts, (iii) with respect to any Commitment, Advance, L/C Credit Extension or L/C Borrowing, no such
assignments (other than pledges or assignment by way of security to a Federal Reserve Bank) shall be permitted without the consent of each Issuing Bank (in each case, acting in its sole discretion), the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) and, so long as no Specified Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), except, with respect to the Borrower’s consent only,
assignments to any other Lender Party, an Affiliate of any Lender, any Approved Fund, and (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (such fee to be paid by the Borrower if such assignment is being made pursuant to a request of the Borrower therefor
under this Section 8.07(a)); provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the case of contemporaneous assignments to or by two or more Approved Funds and (v) each such assignment thereof shall be made on a pro rata
basis with respect to each of (A) such Lender’s Advances and L/C Credit Extensions and (B) such Lender’s Commitment; provided further that (I) each such assignment made as a result of a request by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) shall be arranged by the Borrower with the approval of the Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and shall be either an assignment of all of the rights and

Lender under this Agreement or an assignment of a portion of such rights and obligations made concurrently with another such assignment or other such assignments that, in the aggregate, cover all
of the rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement and (II) no Lender shall be obligated to make any such assignment as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 8.07(a) unless and until such Lender
shall have received one or more payments from one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount at least equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances owing to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date
of payment of such principal amount, and from the Borrower and/or one or more Eligible Assignees in an aggregate amount equal to all other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement and the other Financing Documents (including, without
limitation, any amounts owing under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 8.04). 
 (b) Any Issuing Bank may assign to an Eligible
Assignee all of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its commitment hereunder to issue Letters of Credit at any time; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee,

(c) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and
Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender or Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, hereunder and (ii) the Lender or Issuing Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights
(other than its rights under Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 8.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(d) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm
to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Financing Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or
security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with any Financing Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and

(iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and 
  


					
		  	82	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
each other Financing Document, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Sections 4.01(f), 5.04(b) and 5.04(c) and such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any other Lender
Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any other Financing Document; (v) such assignee
confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Financing Documents as are delegated to such Agent
by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this
Agreement and the other Financing Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. 

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Advances and L/C Borrowings owing to, each Lender Party from time to time (the
“Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon
reasonable prior notice. 
 (f) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender Party and an
assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance,
(ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its
own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender has retained a Commitment hereunder, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be in an aggregate principal
amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such surrendered Note or Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A. 

(g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower) in or to
all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment, the Advances owing to it, L/C Credit Extensions and the Note or Notes (if any) held by it); provided, however, that
(i) any such sale shall be of a uniform and not varying percentage of all of its rights and 
  


					
		  	83	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
obligations in respect of such Advances, (ii) such Lender Party’s obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitment and L/C Credit Extensions) shall remain unchanged,
(iii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (v) the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (vi) no participant
under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Financing Document, or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent
would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or
any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. 
 (h) Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including any other provision regarding assignments, participations, transfers or novations), any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may, without the consent of any other party hereto,
grant to a special purpose vehicle (whether a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or otherwise, an “SPV”) sponsored or managed by the Granting Lender or any Affiliate thereof, a participation in all or
any part of any Advance (including the Commitment therefor) that such Granting Lender has made or will make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) such Granting Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its
Commitment) shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Granting Lender shall remain the holder of its Note for all purposes under this Agreement; and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Granting Lender in connection with such Granting Lender’s rights and obligations under the Financing Documents. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (A) no SPV will be entitled to any rights or benefits that a Lender
would not otherwise be entitled to under this Agreement or any other Financing Document; and (B) an SPV may assign its interest in any Advance under this Agreement to any Person that would constitute a Lender subject to the satisfaction of all
requirements for an assignment by any Lender set forth in this Section 8.07. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Granting Lender and any SPV may, without the consent of any other party to this Agreement, and without
limiting any other rights of disclosure of the Granting Lender under this Agreement, disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of its Advances to (1) (in the case of the Granting Lender) any actual or
prospective SPV, (2) (in the case of an SPV) its lenders, sureties, reinsurers, guarantors or credit liquidity enhancers, (3) their respective directors, officers, and advisors, and (4) any rating agency. 

(i) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this
Section 8.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrower, subject to the requirements set forth in
Section 8.12. 
 (j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time
pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under 
  


					
		  	84	  	WPPC Credit Agreement








 
this Agreement (including the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it) to secure the obligations of such Lender Party, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender Party from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender Party as a party hereto.

hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement

this Agreement or any of the other Financing Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be
conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to

for purposes of enforcing this Agreement or any other Financing Document, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in

Borrower and (viii) with the consent of the Borrower. 
 (b) Neither the Administrative Agent, any Arranger Party nor any

becomes legally compelled to disclose any of the Confidential Information otherwise than as contemplated by Section 8.12(a), the Administrative Agent, such Arranger Party or such Lender Party shall provide the Borrower with notice of such event
promptly upon its obtaining knowledge thereof (provided that it is not otherwise prohibited by Applicable Law from giving such notice) so that the Borrower may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event that such
protective order or other remedy is not obtained, the Administrative Agent, such Arranger Party or such Lender Party shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally required to furnish and shall cooperate with the
Borrower’s counsel to enable the Borrower to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information.

SECTION 8.17. USA Patriot Act Notice. Each of the Lender Parties and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any
Lender Party) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in
accordance with the Act.

and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) the transactions contemplated by the credit documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one
hand, and the Borrower, on the other, and (b) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (i) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with
respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its
stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the credit documents and (ii) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of
the Borrower, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for
making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.
