valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 Section 1. Interpretation. The rules of interpretation specified in the Credit Agreement (including subsection 1.2 thereof) shall be applicable to
this Guarantee. 
  
 Section 2. Resolution of Drafting
Ambiguities. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it was represented by counsel in connection with the execution and delivery hereof, that it and its counsel reviewed and participated in the preparation and negotiation hereof
and that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party (i.e., the Administrative Agent) shall not be employed in the interpretation hereof. 
  
 Section 3. Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby guarantees,
jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not as a surety to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment,
declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the
Bankruptcy Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, Borrower, and all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by any Credit Party under any Credit Document in each case strictly in
accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that if Borrower or any other Guarantor shall fail to pay in full when due
(whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Subsidiary Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of
payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
  
 (a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each
Subsidiary Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of Borrower or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the assertion from any cause of the liability of Borrower, other than the
final payment in full in cash of the Obligations; provided that subsequent to the final payment in full in cash of the Obligations other than indemnity and other contingent liabilities not yet due and 
  

 -2- 








 payable, such Subsidiary Guarantor may additionally assert a defense arising from or in connection with
the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Secured Party in respect of an indemnity Obligation. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable
state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency and fraudulent conveyances or transfers, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be held or
determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability hereunder, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such
liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Credit Party or any other person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other
creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. 
  
 (b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guarantee contained in this Guarantee or
affecting the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party hereunder. 
  
 (c) The guarantee contained in this Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until all the Obligations of the Credit Parties (other
than any indemnity and other contingent obligations not yet due and payable), including the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under the Parent Guarantee of even date herewith, shall have been satisfied by payment in full, no Letter of Credit shall
be outstanding and the Commitments shall have been terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrower may be free from any Obligations. 
  
 (d) No payment made by Borrower, any of Holdings, any
Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party from any of Borrower, any of Holdings, any Subsidiary Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other person by
virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any
Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of
the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full (other than any indemnity and other contingent Obligations not yet due and payable), no
Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments are terminated. 
  

 -3- 








 (e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder is a guarantee of
payment when due, not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to any of the security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account
for credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other secluded party in favor of the Borrower or any other person. 
  
 Section 4. Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more
than its proportionate share of the aggregate of any payment made hereunder and by the Parent Guarantor under a Parent Guarantee, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor which
has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of all Guarantees. The provisions of this Section 4 shall in no respect limit the obligations
and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by it hereunder.

  
 Section 5. Right of Set-off. In addition to any rights
and remedies of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party provided by law, if an Event of Default exists and is continuing or the Loans have been accelerated, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and
each Secured Party at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor, any such notice being waived by each Subsidiary Guarantor 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 by, and other indebtedness, credits or claims (in each case, in any currency and whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured) at any time owing
by, the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party (or any branch or agency thereof) to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary Guarantor against any and all Obligations then due and payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (whether
at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise). Each Secured Party agrees to promptly notify the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Secured Party; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
  
 Section 6. No Subrogation; Subordination. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder or the set-off or application of
funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, no Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against the Borrower or any other
Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Subsidiary Guarator be entitled to seek any contribution or 
  

 -4- 








 reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Subsidiary Guarantor
hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties by the Loan Parties on account of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity Obligations) are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding. If
any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity Obligations) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such
Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent
in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as is consistent with
the Credit Agreement. The payment of any amounts due with respect to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter owing to any Subsidiary Guarantor by reason of any payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor under its guarantee
hereunder is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity Obligations). Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such
Indebtedness of the Borrower or such other Guarantor to such Subsidiary Guarantor until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than any contingent indemnity Obligations). If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, any
Subsidiary Guarantor shall, prior to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnity Obligations), collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such Indebtedness, such amounts shall be
collected, enforced and received by such Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for the Secured Parties and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations without affecting in any manner the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor
under the other provisions of its guarantee contained herein. 
  
 Section 7. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any other Guarantor and without notice to or
further assent by any other Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party and any of the Obligations continued,
and the Obligations, or the liability of any other person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended,
amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents, any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith
may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or
any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. The obligations hereunder 
  

 -5- 








 of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be affected by any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to
protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. 
  
 Section 8. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation,
renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Guarantee or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Guarantee;
the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Borrower
and any of the other Credit Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this
Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor waives except to the extent that any such waiver would be expressly prohibited by law, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the
other Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor understands and agrees that its guarantee contained herein shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the
validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the
Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance and solely after the final payment in full in cash of the Obligations other than indemnity and other contingent
liabilities not yet due and payable, a defense arising from or in connection with the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Secured Party in respect of an indemnity Obligation) which may at any time be available to or be asserted
by any Borrower or any other person against the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be
construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of Borrower for the Obligations, or of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its guarantee contained herein, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise
pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have
against any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other person or against any collateral security or guarantee for any Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to make
any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Borrower, any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of
offset, or any release of any Borrower, any other 
  

 -6- 








 Guarantor or any other person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve such
Subsidiary Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against such Subsidiary
Guarantor For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
  
 Section 9. Reinstatement. The guarantee contained herein shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if and to the extent
at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party 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 payments had not been made. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify, on a joint and several basis, each Secured Party on written demand (as invoiced in reasonable detail) for all reasonable costs and expenses (including
reasonable fees of counsel) incurred by such Secured Party in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference,
fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, other than any costs or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or bad faith of such Secured Party. 
  
 Section 10. Payments. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby guarantees that
payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in U.S. Dollars at the Administrative Agent’s office.
