 CREDIT AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of May 29,
2014, among ZIMMER HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the LENDERS (as defined herein) and CREDIT SUISSE AG, CAYMAN ISLANDS BRANCH, as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, the
“Administrative Agent”). 
 Pursuant to the Merger Agreement (such term and each other capitalized term used but not
defined herein having the meaning assigned to it in Article I), the Company will acquire (the “Acquisition”) all the Capital Stock of Biomet. In connection with the Acquisition, and to provide a portion of the financing
therefor, the Company has entered into this Agreement and the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement. 
 The Company has requested that
the Lenders, on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, extend credit to the Company in the form of Loans on the Funding Date in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $7,660,000,000. The proceeds of the Loans made on the
Funding Date are to be used solely by the Company (i) to pay a portion of the cash consideration in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (ii) to refinance Debt of the Company and Biomet and their respective subsidiaries (the
“Refinancing”) and (iii) to pay fees and expenses related to the Transactions and the Acquisition. The Lenders are willing to extend such credit on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth. 

Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 
 Definitions

 SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 

“ABR” when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing,
are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 
 “Acquisition” shall have the meaning
assigned to such term in the introductory statement of this Agreement. 
 “Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate” shall mean, with
respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing for any Interest Period (or, solely for purposes of clause (c) of the defined term “Alternate Base Rate”, for purposes of determining the Alternate Base Rate as of any date), an interest rate per
annum equal to (i) the Eurocurrency Rate in effect for such Interest Period divided by (ii) one minus the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements. 

“Administrative Agent” shall mean Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent for the Lenders under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any successor thereto.

 “Administrative Fees” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in
Section 3.07(b). 
 “Administrative Questionnaire” shall mean an administrative questionnaire delivered by a Lender
pursuant to Section 10.04 in the form of Exhibit D.

announced), (b) 1/2 of one percent above the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day and (c) one percent above the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate in effect on such day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately

manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate specified in clause (b) or the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate specified in clause (c) of the first sentence of this definition, for any reason, including, without
limitation, the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms hereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) or (c), as the case may be, of the
first sentence of this definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate shall be effective on the effective date of any change in such rate.

gains on the sales of assets outside of the ordinary course of business) and (c) any other non-cash income, all as determined on a consolidated basis. For the purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA for any period of four consecutive fiscal
quarters (each, a “Reference Period”) pursuant to any determination of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, (x) if at any time during such Reference Period the Company or any Subsidiary shall have made any Material Disposition, the
Consolidated EBITDA for such Reference Period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) attributable to the property that is the subject of such Material Disposition for such Reference Period or increased by an
amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) attributable thereto for such Reference Period and (y) if during such Reference Period the Company or any Subsidiary shall have made a Material Acquisition, Consolidated EBITDA for such
Reference Period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Material Acquisition occurred on the first day of such Reference Period. As used in this definition, “Material Acquisition” shall mean any

a term loan (each, a “Loan”) to the Borrower on the Funding Date in a principal amount in Dollars not exceeding its Commitment. The Company may make only one borrowing under the Commitments. Amounts borrowed under this
Section 2.01 and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. 

  
 20 








 SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a
Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. 
 (b) The
failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other
Lender’s failure to make such Loans as required. 
 (c) Subject to Section 3.09, (i) each Borrowing shall be comprised
entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Company may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that
any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(d) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an
integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that
an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments. 
 (e) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date. 

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Borrowing, the Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by
telephone (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 1:30 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing
Request in the form of Exhibit A. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

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

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

  
 21 








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

(v) the location and number of the account of the Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the
requirements of Section 3.01. 
 If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no
Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance
with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. 

ARTICLE III 
 General
Provisions Applicable to Loans 
 SECTION 3.01. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it
hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to the account of the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof, most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, by
2:00 p.m., New York City time. The Administrative Agent will make Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent (or such
other account as may be designated by the Borrower) in New York City. If a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return the
amounts so received to the respective Lenders. 
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the
proposed date of any Borrowing (or in the case of an ABR Borrowing, the proposed time that such Lender’s share of such ABR Borrowing must be made available to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.01(a)) that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 3.01
and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender
and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date
of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or
(ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate on the applicable Borrowing; provided that no repayment by the Borrower pursuant to this sentence shall be deemed to be a prepayment for purposes of Section 3.11. If such Lender
pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 

  
 22 








 SECTION 3.02. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type
specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different
Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time
that a Borrowing Request would 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. Each 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 specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.03: 

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

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

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

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect
to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest Election Request
requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

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

  
 23 








 (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. 

SECTION 3.03. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate
upon the making of the Loans on the Funding Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Commitments shall terminate immediately and without further action upon the earliest to occur of (i) 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Outside Date and
(ii) the date on which the Merger Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms. 
 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or
from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. 

(c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent, of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this
Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent or an affiliate thereof
shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of any Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice
is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financing arrangements, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.
Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of any Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

(d) On the date of any receipt by the Company or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries after the Effective Date but on or prior to the Funding Date
of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Prepayment/Reduction Event, the Commitments shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. 

SECTION 3.04. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the Loan of such Lender on the Maturity Date. 
 (b) Each Lender
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to
such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a Register pursuant to Section 10.04(d) and an
account for each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any promissory note evidencing such Loan and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or 

  
 24 








 
to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to
paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain
such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Any Lender may request that the Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant
to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable such payee and its assigns. 
 SECTION 3.05.
[Reserved.]  
 SECTION 3.06. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to
time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section. 
 (b) The
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days
before the date of prepayment, and (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, a notice of
prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other financing arrangements, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date)
if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably
to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest. 
 (c) On each occasion on or after
the Funding Date that the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary receives any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Prepayment/Reduction Event, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds
received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Loans. 

  
 25 








 SECTION 3.07. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for
the account of and for distribution to each Lender duration fees consisting of: (i) on the 90th day after the Funding Date, a fee equal to 0.50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans

(including on the Funding Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, for any period during which the ticking fee provided for in this Section 3.07(d) accrues that the Company does not have Investment Grade Standing, such ticking fee shall be
0.25% per annum. 
 (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the
Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of duration fees, funding fees and ticking fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

 26

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 paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.0% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided

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 Alternate Base Rate at time when the Alternate Base Rate is based on clause (a) of the first sentence of the definition of Alternate Base 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 Alternate Base Rate or Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 3.09. Alternate Rate of Interest.
If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined
(which determination shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter
and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of
any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such
notice affect only one Type of Borrowing, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. 

  
 27 








 SECTION 3.10. 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 for any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate); 

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans
made by such Lender; or 
 (iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes
described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of the term “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits,
reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or other
Recipient of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) by an amount deemed by such Lender or other Recipient to be material or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such
Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender or other Recipient to be material, then the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient such additional amount or
amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient for such additional costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered. 
 (b)
If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, 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 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 and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then
from time to time the Borrower will 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 and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, 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 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or
delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 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 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or 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 90-day period referred to
above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 28 








 SECTION 3.11. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment
of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 3.06(b) and is revoked
in accordance therewith) 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 3.14, then, in any such event, the
applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the out-of-pocket 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 include an amount determined by
such Lender to be the present value of the excess, if any, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, refinanced or not borrowed (assumed to be the Eurocurrency Rate applicable thereto) for the period from the date
of such payment, prepayment, refinancing or failure to borrow or refinance to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or refinance the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the
date of such failure) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or refinanced for such period or Interest Period,
as the case may be. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been
determined 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 10 days after receipt thereof. The obligations of the
Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

SECTION 3.12. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder by or on behalf of the Borrower
shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current or future Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If under any applicable law the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Tax from or in respect of any
sum payable hereunder to any Recipient, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Additional Amounts
payable under this Section 3.12) such Recipient shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes. 

  
 29 








 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender (or Participant) and the Administrative Agent for
the full amount of Indemnified Taxes paid by such Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses))
arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by a Lender, or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount shall have been determined, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such
indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor, which written demand shall be made within 60 days of the date such Lender or the
Administrative Agent receives written demand for payment of such Indemnified Taxes from the relevant Governmental Authority. 
 (d) Each
Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that no Borrower has already indemnified the Administrative Agent
for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(g) relating to the maintenance of a
Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with
respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent, absent
manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. 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) If a Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent receives a refund, which in its reasonable judgment is in respect of any
Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 3.12, it shall within 30 days from the date of such receipt pay over such
refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or Additional Amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.12 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
of such Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of
such Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent in the event such Lender (or
Participant) or the Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. 
 (f) As soon as practicable
after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes by the Borrower to the relevant Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.01, the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof. 

  
 30 








 (g) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the agreements and
obligations contained in this Section 3.12 shall survive the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all Loans made hereunder. 

(h) Each Lender (or Participant) that is not a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent two copies of either (i) an IRS Form W-8BEN,
W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under
Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto
(and, if such Non-U.S. Lender delivers a IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E pursuant to this clause (ii), a certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a 10 percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Company and is not a
controlled foreign corporation related to the Company (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code)), in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete
exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Company under this Agreement. Each Lender (or Participant) that is a U.S. person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company and
the Administrative Agent two copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying that such Lender (or Participant) is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax on
payments made pursuant to this Agreement. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Participant, on or before the date such Participant becomes a Participant
hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”), unless each of the applicable lending office prior to such
designation and the New Lending Office are located within the United States. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 3.12(h), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 3.12(h) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver. 

(i) A Lender (or Participant) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S.
withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower (other than the Company) is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement, shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made
without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender (or Participant) is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender (or Participant). 

  
 31 








 (j) If a payment made to a Lender (or Participant) under any Loan Document would be subject to
U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender (or Participant) 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 applicable 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
paragraph (j), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date. 
 (k) The Borrower shall not be
required to indemnify any Lender, or to pay any Additional Amounts to any Lender, in respect of any withholding Tax pursuant to paragraph (a) or (c) above to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to such
withholding tax was in effect and would apply to amounts payable to such Lender on the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Participant, on the date such Participant became a Participant hereunder) or, with respect
to payments to a New Lending Office, the date such Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to a Loan; provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to any Lender (or Participant) if the assignment,
participation, transfer or designation of a New Lending Office was made at the request of the Borrower; and provided further, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply (x) to the extent the indemnity payment or Additional
Amounts any Lender (or Participant) would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that the Lender (or Participant) making the assignment, participation, transfer or
designation of such New Lending Office would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or designation or (y) to the extent the obligation to withhold such amounts is an obligation of, or an
obligation in respect of payments made by, any Affiliate of the Company, or (ii) the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender (or Participant) to comply with the provisions of
paragraph (h), (i) or (j) of this Section 3.12. 
 (l) Any Lender (or Participant) claiming any indemnity payment or
Additional Amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.12 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or to change the
jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole
determination of such Lender (or Participant), be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender (or Participant). 
 (m) Nothing contained in
this Section 3.12 shall require any Lender (or Participant) or the Administrative Agent to make available any of its Tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary). 

  
 32 








 SECTION 3.13. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) The
Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 3.10, 3.11 or 3.12, or otherwise) prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time at the place of
payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next
succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices referred to in Section 10.01, or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate
from time to time, except that payments pursuant to Sections 3.10, 3.11 or 3.12 and 10.05 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 hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal,
interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to
such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. 

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans than the proportion received by any other Lender participating in such Loan, then the Lender receiving such greater
proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of such other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by such Lenders 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 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of
this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which
the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may
exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

  
 33 








 (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 Applicable Lenders severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lenders with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at
the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 3.01(b), 3.12(d) or 3.12(e), 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 3.14. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.10, 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 3.12, then such
Lender shall use reasonable efforts to file any certificate or document requested by the applicable Borrower (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions), 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 judgment of such Lender, such filing, designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to
Section 3.10 or 3.12, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (b) If
(i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.10, (ii) 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 3.12,
(iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement requested by the Company that requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders
than the Required Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders, then, in each case, the Company may, 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 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which
assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and, in the case of clause (iv) above, provides its consent to such requested amendment, waiver, or other modification of this Agreement); provided that (1) the
Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (2) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 3.11), 

  
 34 








 
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 (3) in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.12, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. 

SECTION 3.15. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting
Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) ticking fees shall cease to
accrue on the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.07(d); and 
 (b) the Loan Exposure of such Defaulting Lender
shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification
pursuant to Section 10.07); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.07, require the consent of
such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 ARTICLE IV 

Representations and Warranties 

The Company represents and warrants to each of the Lenders and each of the Administrative Agent that, as of the Effective Date and the Funding
Date (and with the understanding that the accuracy of only the Specified Representations in this Article IV shall be conditions to the making of the Loans on the Funding Date): 

SECTION 4.01. Organization; Powers. The Borrower (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has all requisite corporate power and authority to own its property and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted and (c) is qualified to do business in
every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except where the failure so to qualify would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its
obligations under this Agreement and to borrow hereunder. 
 SECTION 4.02. Authorization. The Transactions (a) are within the
Borrower’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action and (b) do not (i) violate (A) any provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, the Margin
Regulations), (B) any provision of the certificate of incorporation or other constitutive documents or by-laws of the Company, (C) any order of any Governmental Authority or (D) any provision of any indenture, agreement or other
instrument to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party or by which it or any of its property is or may be bound, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute (alone or with notice or lapse of time or both)


  
 35 








 
a default under any such indenture, agreement or other instrument or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any lien upon any property or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary other
than, in the case of clauses (i)(A), (i)(C), (i)(D), (ii) and (iii), any such violations, conflicts, breaches, defaults or liens that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 4.03. Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan
Document constitutes or, when executed and delivered, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms (subject, as to enforceability, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity)). 

SECTION 4.04. Governmental Approvals. No action, consent or approval of, registration or filing with or other action by any
Governmental Authority is required in connection with the Transactions except such as have, or on or prior to the Funding Date will have, been obtained or made and are in full force and effect or except for the failure of which to obtain could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 4.05. Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Effect.
(a) The Company has heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013,
reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated
Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP. 
 (b) The Company has heretofore delivered to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders its unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of and for the 12-month period ended March 31, 2014, prepared giving effect to the
Transactions and the Acquisition as if they had occurred, with respect to such balance sheet, on such date and, with respect to such other financial statements, on the first day of the 12-month period ending on such date. Such pro forma financial
statements have been prepared in good faith by the Company, based on assumptions believed by the Company on the date thereof to be reasonable, accurately reflect, in all material respects, all adjustments required to be made to give effect to the
Transactions and the Acquisition and present fairly, in all material respects, on a pro forma basis the estimated consolidated financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date and for such period, assuming that the
Transactions and the Acquisition had actually occurred at such date or at the beginning of such period, as the case may be. 
 (c) Since
December 31, 2013, there has been no material adverse effect on the business, operations, properties or financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 

  
 36 








 SECTION 4.06. Litigation, Compliance with Laws. (a) There are no actions, proceedings
or investigations filed or (to the knowledge of the Company) threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any Governmental Authority or arbitration board or tribunal which question the validity or legality of this
Agreement, the Transactions or any action taken or to be taken pursuant to this Agreement and no order or judgment has been issued or entered restraining or enjoining the Company from the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement nor is
there any other action, proceeding or investigation filed or (to the knowledge of the Company) threatened against the Company or any Subsidiary in any court or before any Governmental Authority or arbitration board or tribunal as to which there is a
reasonable likelihood of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is in violation of any law, rule or regulation, or in default with respect to any judgment, writ,
injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority, where such violation or default would be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose which entails a violation of, or which is inconsistent with, the provisions of the Margin Regulations. 

SECTION 4.08. Taxes. The Company and the Subsidiaries have filed or caused to be filed all Federal and material state, local and
foreign Tax returns which are required to be filed by them, and have paid or caused to be paid all material Taxes required to have been paid by them, other than (i) any Taxes or assessments the validity of which is being contested in good faith
by appropriate proceedings, and with respect to which appropriate accounting reserves have, to the extent required by GAAP, been set aside or (ii) where such failure to file or pay could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 4.09. Employee Benefit Plans. The present aggregate value of accumulated benefit obligations of each Plan
and each foreign employee pension benefit plan required to be funded (based on those assumptions used for disclosure of such obligations in corporate financial statements in accordance with GAAP) did not, as of the most recent statements available,
exceed the aggregate value of the assets for each plan by an amount in the aggregate for all such plans that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) no ERISA Termination Event has occurred and (b) each Plan has been established and administered in accordance with its terms and in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and
other applicable laws, rules and regulations.

at any property owned, leased or operated by the Company now or in the past, or at any other location, that could reasonably be expected to result in liability of the Company or any Subsidiary under any Environmental and Safety Law or result in
costs to any of them arising out of any Environmental and Safety Law; (c) there are no past, present, or, to the knowledge of the Company and the 

  
 37 








 
Subsidiaries, anticipated future events, conditions, circumstances, practices, plans, or legal requirements that could reasonably be expected to prevent the Company or any of the Subsidiaries
from, or increase the costs to the Company or any of the Subsidiaries of, complying with applicable Environmental and Safety Laws or obtaining or renewing all material permits, approvals, authorizations, licenses or permissions required of any of
them pursuant to any such law; and (d) neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiaries has retained or assumed, by contract or operation of law, any liability, fixed or contingent, under any Environmental and Safety Law. 

SECTION 4.11. Properties. (a) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its
real and personal property that are material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except where the failure to have such title or interests, as applicable, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns, is licensed to use, or otherwise has the right to use, all trademarks,
tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property that are material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, and the use thereof by the Company and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any
other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 4.12. Investment Company Status. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as
defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 SECTION 4.13. Solvency. The Company and its

none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any of their respective senior officers or directors or any other Person acting on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has (i) made or offered to
make or received any direct or indirect payments in violation of any applicable law (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010), including any contribution, payment, commission, rebate, promotional allowance or
gift of funds or property or any other economic benefit or thing of value to or from any employee, official or agent of any Governmental Authority where either the contribution, payment, commission, rebate, promotional allowance, gift or other
economic benefit or thing of value, or the purpose thereof, was illegal under any applicable law (including the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act), or (ii) provided or received any product or services in violation of any applicable
law (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010). 

  
 38

Adverse Effect, none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Company, any of their respective senior officers, directors or other employees is the subject of any sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets
Control of the United States Department of the Treasury. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used directly or, to the knowledge of the Company, indirectly in any manner that would result in a violation of any such sanctions.

whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become forthwith due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding; and, in any event with respect to the Borrower described in paragraph (g) or
(h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities of the Borrower accrued hereunder shall
automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Lender under this Agreement and (y) 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 or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto (but shall (i) continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 and 10.05, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid and (ii) continue to be subject to the confidentiality provisions hereof). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may

 (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance,
the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the
interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim; (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties
or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the financial

delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time
and any promissory notes evidencing such Loans (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the 

  
 56 








 
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. No assignment or transfer of any Loan (or portion thereof) or any Note evidencing such Loan shall
be effected unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.04(d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any assignment or transfer of all or part of a promissory note shall be registered on
the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the promissory note (and each promissory note shall expressly so provide), accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, and thereupon one or more new
promissory notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee and the old promissory notes shall be returned by the applicable Administrative Agent to the Company marked “cancelled”. The Register shall
be available for inspection by each party hereto, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (e) Upon its
receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee together with the Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the
processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and, if required, the written consent of the Company to such assignment, the relevant Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance
and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. 
 (f) Each Lender other than any Conduit Lender may sell
participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it);
provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto or thereto for the performance of such
obligations, (iii) each Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12 to the same extent as if it was the selling Lender (subject to the requirements therein, including
the requirements under Sections 3.12(h), 3.12(i) and 3.12(j) (it being understood that the documentation required under such Sections shall be delivered to the participating Lender) and limited to the amount that could have been claimed by the
selling Lender had it continued to hold the interest of such participating bank or other entity, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the
applicable participation, and it being further agreed that the participating Lender will not be permitted to make claims against the Borrower under Section 3.10(b) for costs or reductions resulting from the sale of a participation), except that
all claims made pursuant to such Sections shall be made through such participating Lender and (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such participating Lender in
connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such participating Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable hereunder or thereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans or extending the final
scheduled maturity of the Loans or any date scheduled for the payment of interest on the Loans or extending the Commitments). 

  
 57 








 (g) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating
to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or
other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of 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 as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, no Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent)
shall have any responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (h) Any Lender or Participant may, in connection with any
assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.04, disclose to the assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant any information relating to the Company furnished to such Lender;
provided that, prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions contained herein. 

(i) The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any rights and duties hereunder, except in accordance with Section 7.01, without the prior
written consent of all Lenders. 
 (j) Any Lender may at any time pledge or otherwise assign all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge shall release any Lender from its obligations hereunder. In order to facilitate such an assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, the Borrower
shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute and deliver to the assigning Lender a promissory note or notes evidencing the Loans made by the assigning Lender hereunder. 

(k) Each party hereto hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a
Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by
such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to
institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
 SECTION 10.05. Expenses, Indemnity.
(a) The Company agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by (i) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers in connection with entering into this Agreement or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers
of the provisions hereof or thereof (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of a single counsel) or (ii) the Administrative Agent, the 

  
 58 








 
Arrangers or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of their rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document or in connection with the Loans made, including the fees
and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers and, in the case of enforcement, each Lender. 
 (b) The Company
agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, each Lender, each of their Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees and agents of the foregoing (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 counsel fees, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of (i) the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (including the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein), (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and whether initiated against or by any party to this Agreement, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing or any third party (and regardless of whether any Indemnitee
is a party thereto); provided that (x) such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses result from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of
such Indemnitee and (y) such indemnity shall not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses that result from disputes solely between Lenders. 

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, or permit any of their respective Affiliates or Related
Parties to assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission
systems (including the Internet) or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions or any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(d) The provisions of this Section 10.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of
this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor. 

SECTION 10.06. Applicable Law. This Agreement and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or
otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York. 

SECTION 10.07. Waivers, Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any power or
right hereunder 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


  
 59 








 
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. Subject to Section 5.03, the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative
and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure 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 the Company in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or
demand in similar or other circumstances. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the
maturity of, any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan, or amend or modify Section 10.16,
without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (ii) increase or extend the availability of the Commitments or decrease or extend the date for payment of the duration fees, ticking fees or funding fees of any Lender
without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 3.13 or Section 10.04(i), the provisions of this Section 10.07 or the definition of the “Required Lenders”, without the
prior written consent of each Lender or (iv) change the requirement that disbursements made by any Lender be made ratably with respect to its Loan Exposure without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided
further, however, 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. Each Lender shall be bound by any
waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 10.07 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 10.07 shall bind any assignee of its rights and interests hereunder. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Company and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the
Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required
Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment. 
 SECTION 10.08. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any
previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto any rights, remedies,
obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.09. Severability. In the event any one or more of the
provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein 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 10.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts,
each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 10.03. 

SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.12. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is 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 to or
for the credit or obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be
unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent after such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The
rights of each Lender under this Section 10.12 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 

SECTION 10.13. Jurisdiction: Consent to Service of Process. (a) The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will
not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing in any way
relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any
action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action,
litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may
otherwise have to bring any action, litigation or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any of its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this


  
 61 








 
Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court. 
 (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in
Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

SECTION 10.14. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW,
ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR
ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.14. 

SECTION 10.15. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders expressly agrees, for the benefit of the Company and the
Subsidiaries, to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined below), except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including
accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information
confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in
connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an express agreement for the benefit of the Company and the Subsidiaries
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or to any direct or indirect
counterparty to a Hedge Agreement or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Company or its Subsidiaries and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company and the Subsidiaries, (h) to the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized ratings agency, or (i) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or
(ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company and the Subsidiaries. For the purposes of this Section, “Confidential Information” shall mean all
information, including material nonpublic information within the meaning of Regulation FD promulgated by the SEC (“Regulation FD”), 

  
 62 








 
received from the Company and the Subsidiaries relating to such entities or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such entities; provided that, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential
Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person customarily accords to
its own confidential information; provided, however, that with respect to disclosures pursuant to clause (b) (other than any such disclosure in connection with any routine compliance examination or examination of the financial
condition of such Lender by such regulatory authority) and clause (c) of this Section, unless prohibited by law or applicable court order, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall attempt to notify the Company and the Subsidiaries of any
request by any governmental agency or representative thereof or other Person for disclosure of Confidential Information after receipt of such request, and if reasonable, practicable and permissible, before disclosure of such Confidential
Information. It is understood and agreed that the Company and the Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates may rely upon this Section 10.15 for any purpose, including without limitation to comply with Regulation FD. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any Party to this Agreement (and any employee, representative or other agent of such Party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. The preceding sentence is intended to cause the transactions
contemplated hereby not to be treated as having been offered under conditions of confidentiality for purposes of Section 1.6011-4(b)(3) and 301.6111-2(a)(2)(ii) (or any successor provisions) of the
Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code, and shall be construed in a manner consistent with such purpose. 
 SECTION 10.16. USA
PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender 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 the Borrower, which information includes the names and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the
USA PATRIOT Act, and the Borrower agrees to provide such information from time to time to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, as applicable. 

SECTION 10.17. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrower, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, agrees that in connection with all
aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that
does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Credit Parties or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. The Credit Parties and
their Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Credit Parties or their
Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the 

  
 63 








 
Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it or any of its Affiliates may have against the Credit Parties and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or
fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

	  	Applicable Margin
for Eurocurrency
Loans
(in Basis Points)	 	  	Applicable Margin
for ABR Loans
(in Basis Points)	 
	 Level 1

 The ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Annex I are the public corporate rating and public corporate
family rating of the Company assigned by the Rating Agencies (the “Ratings”). The Rating in effect at any date is that in effect at the close of business on such date. The Company hereby agrees that at all times it shall maintain a
Rating from either S&P or Moody’s. If a Rating is supplied by only one of S&P and Moody’s, then that single Rating shall be determinative. In the case of split Ratings from S&P and Moody’s, the Rating to be used to
determine which pricing category applies is the higher of the two Ratings; provided that if one Rating shall be in Level 1 and one Rating shall be in Level 3, then Level 2 shall apply. 

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Annex I have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement to which this Annex I
is attached. 
 For purposes of the Credit Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 

“Investment Grade Standing” shall exist at any time when the actual Rating from S&P is at or above BBB- (or if S&P
shall change its system, the new Rating which most closely corresponds to BBB-) and the actual Rating from Moody’s is at or above Baa3 (or if Moody’s shall change its system, the new Rating which most closely corresponds to Baa3). 

“Rating Agencies” shall mean Moody’s and S&P.
