(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds

 (b) Unless the Administrative

different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion
shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would 

  
 47 








 
be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Any such telephonic
Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance
with Section 2.02:

Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the Borrower fails
to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period
such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic
means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (w) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (x) unless repaid, each such
Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing.

such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Promissory Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Promissory Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more

Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.10, in the case of prepayments under Section 2.11(a), the Borrower may in its sole discretion select the

“Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Loans, not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory
Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Loan of (i) the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share
of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and (ii) if the Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, so instruct the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. In the event that the Borrower offers to the Lenders the option

 SECTION 2.13 Interest.

 (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such
Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other
amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case
of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount payable by the Borrower, 2.0% plus the rate
applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13; provided, that this clause (c) shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08. 

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and (ii) in the case
of Loans in respect of any Class, upon termination of the Commitments in respect of such Class; provided, that (x) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand, (y) in the
event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to
the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the ABR at
times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last
day). The applicable ABR, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 51 








 SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. 

If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do
not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative
Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such
Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the applicable Lenders by telephone or
telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that
requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in such currency shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, an ABR Borrowing and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. 

SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); 

(ii) subject the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes)
on its loans, loan principal, letter of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributed thereto; or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans
made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of
maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred 

  
 52 








 
or reduction suffered. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
 (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law
regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans
made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding
company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A
certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Promptly after any Lender has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such
Lender shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided,
that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to
such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180 day period
referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In
the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other
than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of Section 2.20), (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant
hereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender (it being understood that the
deemed amount shall not exceed the actual amount) to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been
applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a 

  
 53 








 
failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurocurrency Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on
such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurocurrency market. A
certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such
Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.17 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in good faith judgment of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from such payments by a
withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax
is an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the Administrative Agent or
any Lender, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. 
 (b) In addition,
the Loan Parties shall pay on a timely basis any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for such Other Taxes. 

(c) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written
demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) paid by the Administrative Agent or such
Lender, as applicable, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such person and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed
or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Loan Party by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a
Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days
after written demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties
to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c)(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the
Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses 

  
 54 








 
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such
payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender
under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d). 

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such
Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Loan Party is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to such Loan Party (with a copy to
the Administrative Agent), to the extent such Lender is legally entitled to do so, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as may reasonably be requested by
such Loan Party to permit such payments to be made without such withholding tax or at a reduced rate; provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation under this paragraph (e)(i) with respect to any withholding Tax imposed by any
jurisdiction other than the United States if in the reasonable judgment of such Lender such compliance would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material
respect. 
 (ii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax
imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(ii), “FATCA” shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 (g) 

  
 55 








 (i) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) on or prior to the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and from time to time thereafter (A) promptly upon the obsolescence, expiration or
invalidity of any form previously delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8IMY (or any other form prescribed by
applicable law reasonably requested by the Borrower), which certifies that payments by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity as payee of such payments and not as the beneficial owner of such payments) are exempt from
withholding under the Code. 
 (ii) If the Administrative Agent is a U.S. branch described in
Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)(A) of the Treasury Regulations and delivers to the Borrower a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY pursuant to Section 2.17(f) (i) certifying that the Administrative
Agent is a U.S. branch and intends to be treated as a U.S. person for purposes of withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person for purposes of
withholding under Chapter 3 of the Code, pursuant to Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations. 

(iii) In the event the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, 

A. each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two original copies of whichever of the following is applicable: (i) duly completed copies of
Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (ii) duly completed copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 871(h)(3) or
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any subsequent versions thereof or
successors thereto) and (iv) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, together with forms and certificates described in clauses (i) through (iii) above (and additional Form W-8IMYs) as may be required; and 

B. each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party and upon the expiration of any form previously delivered by such Lender, certifying that payments to such Lender
are exempt from withholding under the Code. 

  
 56 








 (h) Each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), any other form
prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States of America federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the
Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. In addition, in each of the foregoing circumstances, each Foreign Lender shall deliver such forms, if legally entitled to deliver such forms, promptly upon the obsolescence,
expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time 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 United States of America or other taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause, a Foreign Lender (for the avoidance of doubt, acting solely in
its capacity as a Lender) shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this clause that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver. 

(i) If any party determines, in good faith and in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been
indemnified or with respect to which such indemnifying party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to such indemnifying party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional
amounts paid under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out of pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) of such indemnified party, and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid
over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party
in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or
additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems, in
good faith and in its sole discretion, to be confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other person. 
 SECTION 2.18 Payments
Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to
be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16, or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or
deduction for any defense, recoupment, set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next


  
 57 








 
succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the
Administrative Agent except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other
person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any
payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under the Loan Documents of (i) principal and interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is
denominated and (ii) any other amount shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such
time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment. 

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of
principal, interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds or proceeds of Collateral (including any distributions of cash, securities or other property in a bankruptcy case of the Borrower) shall be applied, subject to the
Security Documents, the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any other applicable intercreditor agreement; (i) first, ratably, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent from
the Borrower; second, ratably, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower; third, ratably, to pay interest due and payable in respect of any Loans; fourth, ratably, to pay the outstanding principal of Loans
then due from the Borrower hereunder; fifth, ratably, to the payment of any amounts due and owing in respect of applicable Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements; and sixth, ratably, to pay all other applicable Obligations
due to the Agents or any Lender by the Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, no amount received from any Guarantor, or from the proceeds of Collateral pledged by such Guarantor, shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor.

 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of
or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender entitled thereto, then the Lender
receiving such greater proportion shall purchase participations in the Loans of other applicable Lenders entitled thereto to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the applicable Lenders entitled thereto
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the
Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any Assignee or Participant. The Borrower consents
to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under 

  
 58 








 
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then
each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the greater of (A) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (B) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such
Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or
any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and
obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as
applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon
notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement to an Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding 

  
 59 








 
principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued Fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest
and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. No action by or consent of the removed Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such
purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such removed Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided, that if such removed Lender does not comply
with Section 2.19 within three (3) Business Days after such Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 2.19 shall not be required to effect such assignment. 

(c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge
or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then, provided that no Event of Default exists, the
Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender
by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans and Commitments hereunder to one or more Assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided, that: (a) all Loan Document Obligations of the Borrower
owing to such Non-Consenting Lender (including accrued Fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder) being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender
shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with
such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall
otherwise comply with Section 9.04; provided, that if such Non-Consenting Lender does not comply with Section 9.04 within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 9.04 shall not be
required to effect such assignment. 
 SECTION 2.20 Incremental Commitments. 

(a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Commitments in an amount not to
exceed the Incremental Amount at the time of such request from one or more Incremental Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Term Loans in their own discretion; provided, that each Incremental
Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless such Incremental Lender is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (the “Incremental
Lenders”). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $2.5 million and a minimum amount of $10.0 million or equal to the remaining Incremental
Amount or such lesser amount acceptable to the Administrative Agent), 

  
 60 








 
(ii) the date on which such Incremental Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Amount Date”), and (iii) whether such Incremental Commitments are to be
(A) commitments to make Incremental Term Loans with terms identical to the Initial Term Loans or (B) commitments to make term loans with pricing terms, final maturity date and/or upfront or similar fees or amortization terms different from
the Initial Term Loans (such commitments, the “Other Term Loans”). 
 (b) The Borrower and each applicable Incremental
Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Commitment of such Incremental Lender.
Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the applicable Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder; provided that: 

(i) the Other Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Initial Term Loans and, except as
to pricing, amortization and final maturity date participation in and mandatory prepayments, shall have (x) the same terms as the Initial Term Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,

 (ii) the final maturity date of any Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Maturity Date of any then existing Term
Loans, 
 (iii) the weighted average life to maturity of the Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted
average life to maturity of any then existing Loans and 
 (iv) with respect to mandatory prepayments, such Other Term Loans
shall not participate on a greater than pro rata basis than the Initial Term Loans. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but
only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Commitments evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.08(e). Any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document that is necessary to effect
the provisions of this Section 2.20 and any such collateral and other documentation shall be deemed “Loan Documents” hereunder and may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and furnished to the other
parties hereto.

Loans or to ABR Rate Loans as reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to effect the foregoing. 
 SECTION 2.21 [Reserved].

 SECTION 2.22 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental
Authority has asserted after the DIP Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative
Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either convert all Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings,
either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

Affirmative Covenants 

Each of Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower covenants and agrees with each Lender that, until the Termination Date, unless the Required
Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing, such person will, and will cause each of the Material Subsidiaries to: 
 SECTION 5.01
Existence; Businesses and Properties. 
 (a) Do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve, renew and keep in full force and
effect its legal existence, except, in the case of a Subsidiary that is not the Borrower, where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided, that and
except as otherwise permitted under Section 6.05, Intermediate Holdings may liquidate or dissolve one or more Subsidiaries if the assets of such Subsidiaries to the extent they exceed estimated liabilities are acquired by Intermediate Holdings
or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Intermediate Holdings in such liquidation or dissolution, except that, unless otherwise permitted by Section 6.05, Subsidiary Loan Parties may not be liquidated into Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties and
Domestic Subsidiaries may not be liquidated into Foreign Subsidiaries. 
 (b) Except where the failure to do so, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, do or cause to be done all things necessary to (i) lawfully obtain, preserve, renew, extend and keep in full force and effect the permits, franchises,
authorizations, Intellectual Property Rights, licenses and rights with respect thereto necessary to the normal conduct of its business, (ii) comply in all material respects with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and judgments, writs,
injunctions, decrees and orders of any Governmental Authority, whether now in effect or hereafter enacted, and (iii) at all times maintain and preserve all property necessary to the normal conduct of its business and keep such property in good

if any, may be properly conducted at all times (in each case except as permitted by this Agreement). 
 SECTION 5.02 Insurance. 

(a) Maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance in such amounts and against such risks as are customarily

insured on liability policies. 

  
 75 








 (b) [Reserved]. 

(c) In connection with the covenants set forth in this Section 5.02, it is understood and agreed that: 

(i) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective agents or employees shall be liable for any loss or
damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.02, it being understood that (A) the Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the aforesaid parties
for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their agents or employees. If, however, the insurance policies, as a matter of the

to the extent permitted by law, to waive, and further agrees to cause each of its Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their agents and employees; and 

(ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.02

Subsidiary or the protection of their properties. 
 SECTION 5.03 Taxes. Except (in the case of the Debtors only) in accordance with
the Bankruptcy Code or by applicable order of the Bankruptcy Court, pay and discharge promptly when due all post-petition material Taxes imposed upon it or upon its income or profits or in respect of its property, before the same shall become
delinquent or in default, as well as all lawful claims which, if unpaid, might give rise to a Lien (other than Permitted Liens) upon such properties or any part thereof; provided, however, that such payment and discharge shall not be
required with respect to any such Tax or claim so long as the validity or amount thereof shall be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, and Intermediate Holdings or the affected Subsidiary, as applicable, shall have set aside on its
books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP with respect thereto or except (in the case of the Debtors only) to the extent the non-payment thereof is permitted by the Bankruptcy Code.

to customers of Intermediate Holdings and the Subsidiaries prior to the time that a Default has occurred and is continuing, or 

(ix) all assets that would constitute ABL Priority Collateral at any time that are not pledged to secure ABL Obligations (as
defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) at such time.

a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the
Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. Except as expressly otherwise provided in
this Agreement, each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions
which such Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 7.01, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the
Lenders. 
 (b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender (in its capacities as a Lender as potential counterparties to Secured Hedge
Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential counterparties to Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements) hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act
as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental
thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent (and any Subagents appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the
Security Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VIII (including, without limitation, Section 8.07) and
Section 9.05 as though the Administrative Agent (and any such Subagents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

  
 117 








 SECTION 8.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact (to which it shall be entitled to grant power
of attorney for these purposes) and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any
agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent may also from time to time, when the Administrative Agent deems it to be necessary or desirable, appoint one or more trustees, co-trustees, collateral
co-agents, collateral subagents or attorneys-in-fact (each, a “Subagent”) with respect to all or any part of the Collateral; provided, that no such Subagent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any
Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent. Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower or any other Loan Party be required by any Subagent so appointed by the Administrative Agent
to more fully or certainly vest in and confirm to such Subagent such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by
the Administrative Agent. If any Subagent, or successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Subagent, to the extent permitted by law, shall automatically vest in and
be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Subagent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent, attorney-in-fact or Subagent that it selects in accordance with the
foregoing provisions of this Section 8.02 in the absence of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction). 

SECTION 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent or its Affiliates nor any of their respective Related Parties shall be
(a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable
decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or
warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in
connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (x) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (y) the Administrative Agent
shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or


  
 118 








 
any of its respective Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not
be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default
or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be
created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 8.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled
to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and
believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to any Credit Event, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a
Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to such Credit Event. The Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (including counsel to Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any
such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Promissory Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed
with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required
Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of
taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required
Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 

SECTION 8.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any
Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender, Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a
“notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent 

  
 119 








 
receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default
as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other Lenders); provided, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may
(but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 

SECTION 8.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their
Related Parties have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement.
Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition
and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty
or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may
come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 

SECTION 8.07 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not
reimbursed by Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower to do so), in the amount of its pro rata share (based on its aggregate outstanding Loans hereunder determined at
the time such indemnity is sought), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after
the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or
therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any 

  
 120 








 
amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent for its ratable share of
such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. The agreements in this Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the
Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
 SECTION 8.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may
make loans to, accept deposits from, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 

SECTION 8.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon ten (10) days’
notice to the Lenders and Intermediate Holdings. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for
the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by Intermediate Holdings (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor
agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s
rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor
agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is ten (10) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon
become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
 SECTION 8.10 Documentation Agent, Syndication Agent and Arrangers. None of the Documentation Agents, Syndication Agents
and the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have any relationship of trust or agency with any Loan Party or any duties, responsibilities or obligations hereunder in its respective capacity as such. 

SECTION 8.11 Security Documents and Collateral Agent Under Security Documents and Guarantees. The Lenders authorize the Administrative
Agent to release any Collateral or Guarantors in accordance with Section 9.18. The Lenders irrevocably agree that (a) the Collateral Agent may, without any further consent of any Lender, enter into or amend the ABL Intercreditor Agreement,
any Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is permitted to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is permitted under this
Agreement, (b) the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on a certificate of a Responsible 

  
 121 








 
Officer of Intermediate Holdings as to whether any such other Liens are permitted and (c) the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, the Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor
agreement referred to in the foregoing clause (a), entered into by the Collateral Agent, shall be binding on the Secured Parties. Furthermore, the Lenders (including in their capacities as potential Cash Management Banks and potential Hedge Banks)
hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) to the holder of any Lien on
such property that is permitted by Section 6.02 to be senior to the Liens of the Collateral Agent on such property or (ii) that is or becomes Excluded Property; and the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall do so upon request of
Intermediate Holdings; provided, that prior to any such request, Intermediate Holdings shall have in each case delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Intermediate Holdings certifying that such Lien is
permitted under this Agreement or that such property is Excluded Property, as applicable. 
 SECTION 8.12 Right to Realize on Collateral
and Enforce Guarantees. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, (i) the Administrative
Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the applicable
Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (A) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or all of the Obligations that are
owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and any Subagents allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (B) to collect and receive any
monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and (ii) any custodian, receiver, Assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the
Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative
Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (a) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the
Collateral or to enforce the Guarantees, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all
powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the 

  
 122 








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

discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or

Borrower to deliver such paper copies until a written request to cease delivering paper copies is given by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and (B) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender (by telecopier or
electronic mail) of the posting of any such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent by electronic mail electronic versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Except for such certificates required by Section 5.04(d), the
Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance by the Borrower with any such request for delivery,

benefit of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns. 

SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer without such
consent shall be null and void), and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04 or Article X. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be
construed to confer upon any 

  
 124 








 
person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04), and,
to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in subclause (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees
(each, an “Assignee”), other than a natural person, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written
consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 
 A. Intermediate Holdings; provided, that no
consent of Intermediate Holdings shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other person; provided,
further, that Intermediate Holdings shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless Intermediate Holdings shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having
received notice thereof; and 
 B. the Administrative Agent (except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of
a Lender or an Approved Fund). 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

A. except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Class, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1.0 million unless Intermediate Holdings and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided, that no such consent of Intermediate Holdings
shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds (with simultaneous assignments to or by
two or more related Approved Funds shall be treated as one assignment), if any; 
 B. the parties to each assignment shall
(x) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (y) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, in each case together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); and 

  
 125 








 C. the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17. 
 For the purposes of this
Section 9.04, “Approved Fund” means any person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is
administered or managed by (x) a Lender, (y) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall be permitted to
assign or transfer any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or sell any participation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to subclause (v) below, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 (subject to the limitations and requirements of
those Sections)). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in
such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 9.04. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent,
acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The
Register shall be available for inspection by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the
Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required
by clause (b) of this Section and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment, whether or not evidenced by a
Promissory Note, shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subclause (v). 

  
 126 








 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of Intermediate Holdings, the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations and (C) Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and any other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; provided, that (x) such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that
(i) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to Section 9.04(a)(i) or subclauses (i), through (ix) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) and (ii) directly affects such Participant (but,
for the avoidance of doubt, not any waiver of any Default or Event of Default) and (y) no other agreement with respect to amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Each Lender that sells a
participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) or (c) with respect to any Participant. The Borrower agrees that
each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.17(f) and (g) (it being understood that the
documentation required under Sections 2.17(f) and (g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section;
provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.17 as if it were an Assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any
greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided, that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan
Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any person (including the identity of any Participant or any information
relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered
form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of 

  
 127 








 
the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the
Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the
Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice
from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Promissory Notes to any Lender requiring Promissory Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in clause (d) above. 

(f) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments of any Class with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with
the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders of such Class, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to
(i) require the Lenders of such Class, to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.08 (with such replacement, if applicable, being
deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9.04(b)(ii)). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders of such Class, in the same manner as would be required
if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any other amounts owing pursuant to this Agreement. By
receiving such purchase price, the Lenders of such Class, shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments of such Class, pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as Exhibit A,
and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this clause (h) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the
Collateral during any such replacement. 
 (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment may be made and, to the extent the list of such
Ineligible Institution has been made available to all Lenders, no participation sold to an Ineligible Institution without the prior written consent of Intermediate Holdings. 

  
 128 








 SECTION 9.05 Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication of the Commitments, administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence, initial and ongoing appraisals and Collateral examinations to the extent incurred in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, mortgage recordings, title registrations, UCC
filings and other filings in connection with the creation and perfection of the Liens of the Collateral Agent (and the priority thereof) as contemplated hereby or other Loan Documents and the reasonable fees, disbursements and charges of no more
than one counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not such amendment, waiver or modification is approved by the applicable Lenders),
including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Simpson, Thacher & Bartlett LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one
local counsel per applicable jurisdiction; and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made or the Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the fees, charges and disbursements of a single counsel for all such persons, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or
perceived conflict of interest where such person affected by such conflict informs Intermediate Holdings of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel with Intermediate Holdings’ prior written consent (not to be unreasonably
withheld), of another firm for such affected person). 
 (b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Agents, the
Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers, each Lender, each of their respective Affiliates, successors and assigns and each of their respective Related Parties (each such person being called an
“Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable documented counsel fees, charges and disbursements (excluding the
allocated costs of in house counsel and limited to not more than one counsel for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in
the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where such Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs Intermediate Holdings of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel with Intermediate Holdings’ prior written consent (not
to be unreasonably withheld), of another firm of such for such affected Indemnitee), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions
contemplated hereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, and regardless of whether any of
the foregoing is raised or initiated by a third party or Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower (including its equity holders, affiliates, creditors, or any other person) or any other Loan Party or any Subsidiary; provided, that such indemnity
shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (for purposes of this proviso only, (x) “Indemnitee” shall not 

  
 129 








 
include any agents or advisors and (y) each of the Administrative Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Syndication Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Lender shall be treated as several and
separate Indemnitees, but each of them together with its respective Related Parties, shall be treated as a single Indemnitee). Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee
against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements (limited to not more than one counsel, plus, if
necessary, one local counsel per jurisdiction) (except the allocated costs of in-house counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (a) any claim related in any way to
Environmental Laws and Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or (b) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any property currently or
formerly owned or operated by Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities
or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties. None of the Indemnitees
(or any of their respective affiliates) shall be responsible or liable to Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates or stockholders or any other person or entity for any special, indirect, consequential
or punitive damages, which may be alleged as a result of the facilities hereunder or the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this
Agreement, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. All
amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. 

(c) Except as expressly provided in Section 9.05(a) with respect to Other Taxes, which shall not be duplicative with any amounts
paid pursuant to Section 2.17, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages from any non-Tax claim. 

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waive,
any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of
any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

 (e) The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender,
the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 130 








 SECTION 9.06 Right of Set off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates are hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Holdings (prior to a Qualified IPO), Intermediate Holdings or any Subsidiary against any of and
all the Obligations of Holdings (prior to a Qualified IPO), Intermediate Holdings or any Subsidiary now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such
Lender or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the Obligations may be unmatured; provided, that no amounts set off with respect to any Guarantor shall be applied to any
Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor; provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent
for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of
each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have. 

SECTION 9.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OTHER THAN (AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS)
AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO SUCH LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

SECTION 9.08 Waivers; Amendment. 

(a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph
(b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such
person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

  
 131 








 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be
waived, amended or modified except (x) as provided in Section 2.20 or Section 8.15, (y) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings (prior to a Qualified IPO),
Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders and (z) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Loan Party thereto and the Administrative Agent and consented to
by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall 
 (i) decrease or forgive the principal
amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender
directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); provided, that no amendment to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for
purposes of this clause (i); 
 (ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or decrease any fees of any Lender
without the prior written consent of such Lender (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); provided, that waivers
or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Commitments shall not constitute an increase of the Commitments of any Lender; 

(iii) extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any Fees is due, without the prior written consent of each
Lender directly adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification); 

(iv) amend the provisions of Section 2.11(d) or 2.18(b) of this Agreement, Section 4.02 of the Collateral Agreement
or any comparable provision of any other Security Document in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby; 

(v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section 9.08 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other
provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected
thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and
Commitments are included on the DIP Closing Date); or 

  
 132 








 (vi) release all or substantially all the Collateral or release any of
Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Loan Parties from their respective Guarantees under the Collateral Agreement unless, in each case, sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by this
Agreement, without the prior written consent of each Lender; 
 provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent acting as such at the effective date of such agreement, as applicable. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver,
amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any Assignee of such Lender. 

(c) Without the consent of any Lender, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to
the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security
interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or
so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or this Agreement or in each case to otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Secured Party under any Loan Document. 

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders,
the Administrative Agent, Holdings (prior to a Qualified IPO), Intermediate Holdings and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding
thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof (provided that such credit
facilities shall not rank senior in right of payment or of security with the existing facilities hereunder unless otherwise agreed by each Lender directly adversely affected thereby) and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such
credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications
to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of Holdings (prior to a Qualified IPO), Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary (A) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or
(B) to integrate any Incremental Commitments in a manner consistent with Section 2.20. 
 (f) With respect to the incurrence of
any secured or unsecured Indebtedness (including any intercreditor agreement relating thereto), Intermediate Holdings may elect (in its discretion, but shall not be obligated) to deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible
Officer at least three (3) Business Days prior to the incurrence thereof (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent may agree), together with either drafts of the material documentation relating to such Indebtedness or a description of
such Indebtedness (including a description of the Liens intended to secure the same or the subordination provisions thereof, as applicable) in reasonably sufficient detail to be able to make the determinations referred to in this paragraph, which
certificate shall either, at Intermediate Holdings’ election, (i) state that 

  
 133 








 
Intermediate Holdings has determined in good faith that such Indebtedness satisfies the requirements of the applicable provisions of Section 6.01 and 6.02 (taking into account any other
applicable provisions of this Section 9.08), in which case such certificate shall be conclusive evidence thereof, or (ii) request the Administrative Agent to confirm, based on the information set forth in such certificate and any other
information reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, that such Indebtedness satisfies such requirements, in which case the Administrative Agent may determine whether, such requirements have been satisfied (in which case it shall deliver to
Intermediate Holdings a written confirmation of the same), with any such determination of the Administrative Agent to be conclusive evidence thereof, and the Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to make such determinations. 

SECTION 9.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate,
together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for,
charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the
rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate; provided, that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding
the legal limitation. 
 SECTION 9.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain
Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is
superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement
or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

 SECTION 9.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (a) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE,

this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or
unenforceable provisions.

 SECTION 9.17 Platform; Borrower Materials. Intermediate Holdings hereby acknowledges that
(a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Joint Lead Arrangers will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower hereunder (collectively,
“Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”), and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e.,
Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Intermediate Holdings hereby agrees that it
will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may not be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all the Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PRIVATE”
which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PRIVATE” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by not marking Borrower Materials “PRIVATE,” Intermediate Holdings shall be deemed to have authorized the
Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders to treat the Borrower Materials as either publicly available information or not material information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to Holdings, Intermediate
Holdings, the Borrower or their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Borrower Materials not marked “PRIVATE” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the

Agents and Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released: (i) in full, as set forth in Section 9.18(d) below; (ii) upon the sale
or other disposition of such Collateral by any Loan Party to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that
effect provided to it by the Responsible Officer of Intermediate Holdings upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent that such Collateral comprises property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration
of such lease, (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 9.08), (v) to the
extent that the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with the Collateral Agreement and clause (b) below, (vi) as provided
in Section 8.15, (vii) as contemplated by any intercreditor agreement, (viii) to the extent any asset or property constitutes Excluded Property and (ix) as required by the Collateral Agent to effect any sale or disposition of
Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those being released)
upon (or Obligations (other than those being released) of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale or disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral
except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. 

  
 137 








 (b) In addition, (i) the Agents and Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Subsidiary
Loan Parties shall be released from the Guarantees and the Security Documents upon consummation of any transaction not prohibited hereunder resulting in such Subsidiary Loan Party ceasing to constitute a Subsidiary Loan Party or otherwise a
Subsidiary (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Responsible Officer of Intermediate Holdings upon its reasonable request without further inquiry) and (ii) immediately prior to the
consummation of a Qualified IPO of Holdings (the “Holdings Date”), the Guarantee incurred by Holdings of the Obligations shall automatically terminate and Holdings shall be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents,
shall cease to be a Loan Party and any Liens created by any Loan Documents on any assets or Equity Interests owned by Holdings shall automatically be released. 

(c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments,
documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.18, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender. Any
representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be made. In connection with any release hereunder, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall
promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower and such Loan Party’s
expense in connection with the release of any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Subsidiary, property or asset. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, upon the Termination Date, upon request of Intermediate Holdings or the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall
(without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all Obligations under any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such
release there may be any (i) obligations in respect of any Secured Hedge Agreements or any Secured Cash Management Agreements and (ii) any contingent indemnification Obligations or expense reimburse claims not then due. Any such release of
Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or
returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the
Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. 
 (e)
Obligations of Intermediate Holdings and its Subsidiaries under any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Secured Hedge Agreement (after giving effect to all netting arrangements relating to such Secured Hedge Agreements) shall be secured and


  
 138 








 
guaranteed pursuant to the Security Documents only to the extent that, and for so long as, the other Obligations are so secured and guaranteed. No person shall have any voting rights under any
Loan Document solely as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any such Secured Hedge Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, no release of Collateral or Guarantors effected in the manner
permitted by this Agreement shall require the consent of any holder of obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements or any Secured Cash Management Agreements. 

SECTION 9.19 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 9.20 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and
not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and
address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Loan Parties and the Lenders is intended to be or has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether any
Lender has advised or is advising any Loan Party on other matters, and the relationship between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith and therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor,
(b) the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, have an arm’s length business relationship that does not directly or indirectly give rise to, nor do the Loan Parties rely on, any fiduciary duty to the Loan
Parties or their Affiliates on the part of the Lenders, (c) the Loan Parties are capable of evaluating and understanding, and the Loan Parties understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (d) the Loan Parties have been advised that the Lenders are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from the Loan Parties’ interests and that the Lenders have
no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Loan Parties, (e) the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent the Loan Parties have deemed appropriate in the
negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (f) each Lender has been, is, and will be acting solely as a principal and, except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing by it and the relevant parties, has
not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Loan Parties, any of their Affiliates or any other person, (g) no Lender has any obligation to the Loan Parties or their Affiliates with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents except those obligations expressly set forth herein or therein or in any other express writing executed and delivered by such Lender and the Loan Parties or any such Affiliate
