Section 2.03, agrees to issue through the Several L/C Agent, in addition to or as a part of the Several Letters of Credit it has agreed to issue on its own behalf, severally any such Several Letter of Credit, for the account of any
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in an amount equal to such Affected Lender’s or Non-NAIC 

  

					
		 	25	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Approved Bank’s, as applicable, Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share if the Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letter of Credit) of the
stated amount of such Several Letter of Credit, and to amend or extend each such Several Letter of Credit previously issued by it as a Limited Fronting Lender for such Participating L/C Issuer; and (E) with respect to any Several Letter of
Credit issued by a Limited Fronting Lender pursuant to clause (D) preceding, each applicable Affected Lender or Non-NAIC Approved Bank, as applicable, agrees to purchase participations in the obligations of such Limited Fronting Lender
under such Several Letter of Credit in an amount equal to all of the credit exposure of such Limited Fronting Lender (solely in its capacity as a Limited Fronting Lender for such Affected Lender or Non-NAIC Approved Bank, as applicable) under such
Several Letter of Credit; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension, (x) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender,
plus the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations owing to such Lender (whether as an issuer or as a participant) shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment (except as provided in clauses (A), (D) and (E),
as applicable, above for a Fronting L/C Issuer or a Limited Fronting Lender), and (z) the Dollar Equivalent of the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit Usage of any Lender (other than a Lender in respect of any Existing Non-NAIC Approved Bank) shall
not exceed the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit of such Lender. Each request by a Borrower for the issuance or amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by such Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so
requested complies with the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers’ ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the
Borrowers may, during the Availability Period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. If requested by the applicable Borrower but subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, a Letter of Credit shall satisfy the requirements for letters of credit under the credit-for-reinsurance provisions of the relevant beneficiary’s domiciliary state’s insurance laws and regulations (or the requirements for similar
purposes of such other Governmental Authority which then regulates the relevant beneficiary’s insurance business as may be specified by the applicable Borrower) as to which the applicable Borrower provides written notice to the applicable
Fronting L/C Issuer(s) or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent prior to the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided, that such Fronting L/C Issuer(s) or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, the
Administrative Agent or any Lender shall not be obligated to verify such satisfaction. In addition, if requested by the applicable Borrower, but subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Administrative Agent, the applicable Fronting L/C
Issuer(s) and the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, agree to use commercially reasonable efforts, and the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer(s) and the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, to use such commercially
reasonable efforts, at the expense of the applicable Borrower, to issue, or cause to be issued (including by one or more foreign branches or affiliates of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer(s) or the Several L/C Agent), Letters of
Credit (or confirmations thereof) denominated in an Alternative Currency in a form and with such terms and conditions as shall satisfy (or facilitate the satisfaction of) the requirements for letters of credit under the provisions of the laws and
regulations of a foreign jurisdiction (including insurance and banking regulations thereof) or as may otherwise be reasonably requested by the beneficiary thereof (including the cedent of insurance liabilities); provided, that such issuance
(or confirmation) is not, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, adverse to the interests of the Administrative Agent, such


  

					
		 	26	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Lenders; and provided, further, that none of the Administrative Agent, any of the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent or
any of the Lenders shall be obligated to verify such satisfaction. From and after the Restatement Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit that are Fronted Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Agreement by Bank
of America, in its capacity as a Fronting L/C Issuer. The Existing Letters of Credit that are Several Letters of Credit shall be replaced on the Restatement Closing Date with Several Letters of Credit issued by the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement
or, to the extent practicable, be amended effective as of the Restatement Closing Date so that the liability of the issuers under such Several Letters of Credit from and after the Restatement Closing Date shall be consistent with the Pro Rata Shares
(or other applicable shares as provided herein) of the Lenders, and such Several Letters of Credit, as so amended, shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Agreement. 

(ii) Neither any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent nor the Lenders, as applicable, shall issue any Letter of Credit,
if: 
 (A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(v), the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve
months after the date of issuance or last extension of such Letter of Credit, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 

(B) the expiry date of such Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the Maturity Date, unless all the
Lenders have approved such expiry date; 
 (iii) Neither any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent nor any Lender, as
applicable, shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 
 (A) any order, judgment or decree of any
Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender from issuing such Letter of
Credit, or any Law applicable to such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any
Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several
L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Fronting L/C Issuer, the
Several L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent
or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Restatement Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or, if
the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Restatement Closing Date and which 

  

					
		 	27	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or, if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender in good faith deems material to it; 

(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C
Agent or if the Administrative Agent has been notified thereof by such Lender, any Lender, as applicable, applicable to letters of credit generally; 

(C) except as otherwise agreed by such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, such Letter of Credit is
in an initial amount of less than $1,000,000; 
 (D) after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, more than sixty Letters of
Credit would be outstanding unless the Borrowers, the Fronting L/C Issuers and the Several L/C Agent otherwise agree; 
 (E)
such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or 

(F) if such Letter of Credit is a Fronted Letter of Credit or a Several Letter of Credit in respect of which there is a
Limited Fronting Lender, any Lender is a Defaulting Lender thereunder, unless the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the applicable Limited Fronting Lender, as applicable, has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it (including, without
limitation, arrangements for the provision of Risk Participation Cash Collateral) with the Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer’s or the applicable Limited Fronting Lender’s, as applicable,
risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender; provided, that, if the Borrowers provide Risk Participation Cash Collateral with respect to a Letter of Credit requested to be issued hereunder, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the applicable
Limited Fronting Lender, as applicable, shall not be entitled to rely on this clause as justification for not issuing such Letter of Credit. To the extent that the Borrowers or a Defaulting Lender provide Risk Participation Cash Collateral, the
Borrowers or such Defaulting Lender, as applicable, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the applicable Limited Fronting Lender, as applicable, a security interest in all deposit accounts
and all balances therein constituting such Risk Participation Cash Collateral and all proceeds of the foregoing solely as security for the purposes described under Section 2.03(c)(i) hereof. Such Risk Participation Cash Collateral shall
be maintained in blocked transaction accounts with the Administrative Agent; provided that (1) in the event that any Lender on account of whom such Risk Participation Cash Collateral was delivered shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender, the
Administrative Agent shall return to the pledgor such portion of Risk Participation Cash Collateral attributable to such Lender, (2) in the event that any Lender on account of whom such Risk Participation Cash Collateral was delivered shall
have its Commitment reduced, the Administrative Agent shall return to the pledgor such portion of the Risk Participation Cash Collateral attributable to such Lender in proportion to the amount by which such Lender’s Commitment is so reduced,
(3) in the event that the applicable Letter of Credit on account of which such Risk Participation Cash Collateral was delivered expires 

  

					
		 	28	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
or is drawn upon, and such drawing has been reimbursed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall return to the pledgor such portion of the Risk Participation Cash Collateral attributable to
such expired Letter of Credit or such reimbursed drawing, as applicable, and (4) to the extent the Borrowers provide Risk Participation Cash Collateral, such Risk Participation Cash Collateral shall be applied to satisfy drawings under the
Letters of Credit as they occur. 
 (iv) Neither any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent nor any Lender, as
applicable, shall amend or extend any Letter of Credit if it would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 

(v) Neither any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent nor any Lender, as applicable, shall be under any obligation to
amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or such Lender, as applicable, would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 
 (b) Procedures for
Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued
or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Applicant, and, if a Subsidiary of MetLife (other than Funding) is the Applicant, MetLife, as Co-Applicant, by the delivery to (A) the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the
applicable Fronting L/C Issuer of such request), in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, or (B) the Several L/C Agent and the Administrative Agent, in the case of Several Letters of Credit, of a writing in the form of a Letter of Credit
Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Applicant and, if a Subsidiary of MetLife (other than Funding) is the Applicant, MetLife. Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application for a Several Letter
of Credit, the Several L/C Agent will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Applicant, and, if applicable, MetLife , as the
Co-Applicant, and, if not, the Several L/C Agent will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application for a Fronted Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall send such Letter of
Credit Application to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer. Any such Letter of Credit Application may be submitted by the Applicant and, if applicable, MetLife, as the Co-Applicant, by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by
electronic transmission using the system provided by the Administrative Agent or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the Administrative Agent or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable. Such
Letter of Credit Application must be received by the Administrative Agent and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, (A) not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment (or such

Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment (or such shorter time as the Administrative Agent and the Several L/C Agent may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion), as the case may be, of any Several

		 	29	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement

(other than Funding), that MetLife is the Co-Applicant; (B) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the amount and currency thereof; (D) the expiry date thereof; (E) the
name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (F) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing
thereunder; (H) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; (I) whether such Letter of Credit is to be issued as a Fronted Letter of Credit or a Several Letter of Credit; (J) if such Letter of Credit is to be issued as a
Several Letter of Credit, whether there is to be a Limited Fronting Lender (and if there is a Limited Fronting Lender, the name of such Limited Fronting Lender); (K) if such Letter of Credit is to be issued as a Fronted Letter of Credit, which
Lead Lender the Applicant has chosen to be the Fronting L/C Issuer for such Fronted Letter of Credit; and (L) such other matters as the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent), as
applicable, may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several
L/C Agent, as applicable, (w) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (x) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (y) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (z) such other matters as the applicable
Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent), as applicable, may reasonably require. Additionally, the Applicant shall furnish to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer (through the Administrative Agent) or
the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such Fronting L/C Issuer (through
the Administrative Agent), the Several L/C Agent, or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent), as applicable, may reasonably require. 

(ii) Unless the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, has received written notice from any
Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that such Letter of Credit is not permitted to be issued hereunder or that one or
more applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, shall, on the requested date, issue a
Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Fronting L/C Issuer’s or the Several L/C Agent’s,
as applicable, usual and customary business practices. 
 (iii) The Several L/C Agent is hereby authorized to execute and
deliver each Several Letter of Credit and each amendment to a Several Letter of Credit on behalf of each Lender (including each Limited Fronting Lender) and to otherwise act on behalf of each Lender with respect to each Several Letter of Credit. The
Several L/C Agent shall use the Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share if the Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letter of Credit) of each Lender as its “Commitment Share” (or equivalent
term) under each Several Letter of Credit; provided that the applicable Limited Fronting Lender, in its capacity as such, shall, in addition to its own “Commitment Share” as a Lender, have a “Commitment Share” (or equivalent
term) equal to the Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share if the Borrowers have made a 

  

					
		 	30	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letter of Credit) of each Participating L/C Issuer for which such Limited Fronting Lender serves in such capacity under such Several
Letter of Credit. The Several L/C Agent is hereby authorized to amend a Several Letter of Credit to change the “Commitment Share” (or equivalent term) of a Lender or add or delete a Lender liable thereunder in connection with an assignment
or any other addition or replacement of a Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event a Lender becomes a Participating L/C Issuer or ceases to be a Participating L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent is hereby authorized to amend
each Several Letter of Credit to reflect such change in status and to change the “Commitment Share” (or equivalent term) of the applicable Limited Fronting Lender, as the case may be. Each Lender hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints
the Several L/C Agent its true and lawful attorney-in-fact for and on behalf of such Lender with full power of substitution and revocation in its own name or in the name of the Several L/C Agent for the limited purpose of issuing, executing and
delivering, as the case may be, each Several Letter of Credit and each amendment to a Several Letter of Credit and for carrying out the purposes of this Agreement with respect to Several Letters of Credit. 

(iv) It is the intention and agreement of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Several L/C Agent that (A) except
as otherwise expressly set forth herein (including with respect to Limited Fronting Lenders), the rights and obligations of the Lenders in respect of outstanding Several Letters of Credit shall be determined in accordance with the Pro Rata Shares
(or other applicable shares if the Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letters of Credit) of the Lenders from time to time in effect and (B) outstanding Several Letters of Credit shall be promptly
amended to reflect any changes in the Pro Rata Shares (or other applicable shares if the Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letters of Credit) of the Lenders, whether arising in connection with an
assignment pursuant to Section 10.07, an increase of the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.13, or any other event or circumstance resulting in a change in the Pro Rata Shares (or other applicable shares if the
Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letters of Credit) of the Lenders under this Agreement. However, it is acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Several L/C Agent that amendments
of outstanding Several Letters of Credit may not be immediately effected and may be subject to the consent of the beneficiaries of such Several Letters of Credit. Accordingly, whether or not Several Letters of Credit are amended as contemplated
hereby, the Lenders agree that they shall purchase and sell participations or otherwise make or effect such payments among themselves (but through the Administrative Agent) so that payments by the Lenders of drawings under Several Letters of Credit
and payments by the Borrowers of Unreimbursed Amounts and interest thereon are, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein (including with respect to Limited Fronting Lenders and Defaulting Lenders), in each case shared by the Lenders in
accordance with the Pro Rata Shares (or other applicable shares if the Borrowers have made a Non-Pro Rata Issuance Election with respect to such Several Letters of Credit) of the Lenders from time to time in effect. 

(v) If an Applicant so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the
Several L/C Agent (on behalf of the Lenders), as applicable, will issue or amend a Letter of Credit (including any Existing Letter of Credit) to provide for automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of
Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, to prevent any such 

  

					
		 	31	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
extension by giving notice to the beneficiary thereof prior to the thirtieth (30th) day (or such other day, not longer than the ninetieth
(90th) day, as an Applicant may request) preceding the then current expiration date of such Letter of Credit (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”). The Applicant (or, if
applicable, MetLife as the Co-Applicant) shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued,
the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit to an expiry date not later than twelve months from the then existing expiry
date and in any event not later than twelve months after the Maturity Date; provided, however, that such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Fronting L/C
Issuer or the Several L/C Agent (on behalf of the Lenders), as applicable, has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms
hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), and such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, has provided notice thereof to the Borrowers
no later than the Non-Extension Notice Date, or (B) it has received notice on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Borrower that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied (or, in the case of any Borrower, that such Borrower does not want such Letter of Credit to be extended), and in each such case directing such Fronting L/C Issuer or
the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, not to permit such extension. 
 (vi) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of
Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the
Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. Promptly upon receipt of a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, the Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of the details such Letter of Credit or
amendment (which shall include the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, Limited Fronting Lenders and Confirming Banks for such Letter of Credit, and whether such Letter of Credit was issued other than in accordance with the Lenders’ Pro Rata
Shares). Within 10 days after the end of each calendar month, each Fronting L/C Issuer will deliver to the Administrative Agent a written report setting forth the Fronted Letters of Credit that have been issued by such Fronting L/C Issuer and were
outstanding as of the last day of such calendar month. Within 15 days after the end of each calendar month, the Administrative Agent will deliver to each of the Lenders and the Borrowers a written report setting forth the Letters of Credit that have
been issued and were outstanding as of the last day of such calendar month (which shall include the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, Limited Fronting Lenders and Confirming Banks for each issued and outstanding Letter of Credit, and whether any
Letter of Credit has been issued other than in accordance with the Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares). 
 (c) Drawings and
Reimbursements; Fundings. 
 (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Fronted Letter of Credit of any notice of a
complying drawing under such Fronted Letter of Credit, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer shall, promptly and in any event at least one Business Day before the date (the “Honor Date”) on which such Fronting L/C Issuer anticipates
that payment of 

  

					
		 	32	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
such drawing will be made, notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 2:30 p.m. on the Honor Date, so long as the applicable Borrower has received
notice of such payment from the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent by 10:00 a.m. on such Honor Date and, otherwise, not later than 2:30 p.m. on the following Business Day, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the
applicable Fronting L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (such amount, the “Unreimbursed Amount”) in the currency in which such drawing was paid; provided that, in the case
of a Fronted Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (A) the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer (at its option) may specify in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such
requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the applicable Borrower may notify the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that such Borrower will reimburse such Fronting L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of
any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Fronted Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (x) the amount of such reimbursement shall be equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such drawing, determined and
calculated as of the date of such reimbursement and (y) such Fronting L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower of such Dollar Equivalent promptly following the determination thereof. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such
reimbursement by the required time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the Unreimbursed Amount (which, if such Unreimbursed Amount is denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall automatically be converted
from the Alternative Currency to Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof), and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Each Lender shall, upon any notice pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i), in
purchase of its participation in such Unreimbursed Amount, make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent. If any Defaulting Lender shall fail to make such funds available, any Risk Participation Cash Collateral
delivered on account of such Defaulting Lender for the respective Fronted Letter of Credit shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the reimbursement of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer as required hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall
remit the funds so received or applied to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer. Any notice given by the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately
confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Several Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Several Letter of
Credit, the Several L/C Agent shall notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders, thereof, which notices shall be given promptly and in any event at least (A) one Business
Day before the date (also the “Honor Date”) on which the Several L/C Agent anticipates that payment of such drawing will be made if such Several Letter of Credit is denominated in Dollars, and (B) two Business Days before the
date (also the “Honor Date”) on which the Several L/C Agent anticipates that payment of such drawing will be made if such Several Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency. Not later than 10:00 a.m. on the Honor
Date and without further notice or demand by the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, (A) each Lender (including each Limited Fronting Lender) shall make funds available to the Several L/C


  

					
		 	33	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Agent through the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) (and, in the case of each
Limited Fronting Lender, the Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of each applicable Participating L/C Issuer) of such drawing in the currency in which such drawing will be paid and (B) in the event a Limited Fronting
Lender pays the Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of a Participating L/C Issuer, such Participating L/C Issuer shall pay such Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) to the Administrative Agent for
the account of such Limited Fronting Lender in purchase of its participation in such payment. Not later than 2:30 p.m. on the Honor Date, so long as the applicable Borrower has received notice of payment under such Several Letter of Credit from the
Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent by 10:00 a.m. on the Honor Date and, otherwise, not later than 2:30 p.m. on the following Business Day the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Lenders (including any Limited Fronting Lender) through the
Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (such amount, also the “Unreimbursed Amount”) in the currency in which such drawing was paid; provided that, in the case of a Several Letter of Credit
denominated in an Alternative Currency, (w) the Several L/C Agent (at its option) may specify in such notice of payment that such reimbursement be made in Dollars or (x) if the Several L/C Agent does not so specify, the applicable Borrower
may notify the Several L/C Agent promptly following receipt of the notice of payment that such reimbursement will be made in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Several Letter of Credit denominated in an
Alternative Currency, (y) the amount of such reimbursement shall be equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such drawing, determined and calculated as of the date of such reimbursement and (z) the Several L/C Agent shall notify the
applicable Borrower of such Dollar Equivalent promptly following the determination thereof. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such reimbursement by the required time, the Unreimbursed Amount (if such Unreimbursed Amount is denominated in an
Alternative Currency) shall automatically be converted from the Alternative Currency to Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof. Any notice given by the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c)(ii) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(iii) In the event the applicable Borrower fails to pay any Unreimbursed Amount as required by clause (i) or
(ii) above, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Business Day such Unreimbursed Amount is due in an amount equal to such Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to
the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 5.02
(other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Each Borrowing made pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(iii) shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to pay the related Unreimbursed Amount. 

(iv) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the
conditions set forth in Section 5.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, such Unreimbursed Amount (together with interest) shall be immediately due and payable by the applicable Borrower without further demand. 

  

					
		 	34	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (v) Notwithstanding the date on which an Unreimbursed Amount is payable by the
applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) or (ii), if an Unreimbursed Amount is not paid by the applicable Borrower by 2:30 p.m. on the applicable Honor Date (whether through a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or otherwise), each
Unreimbursed Amount shall bear interest from the applicable Honor Date to the date that such Unreimbursed Amount is paid by the applicable Borrower (whether through a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or otherwise) at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus
the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans plus 2% per annum. 
 (vi) Until a Lender funds its obligation pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c), interest in respect of such Lender’s applicable share of any Unreimbursed Amount shall be solely for the account of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, the applicable Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C Agent
(if the Several L/C Agent has funded on behalf of such Lender, as provided in Section 2.03(c)(viii)), as applicable. 

(vii) Each Lender’s obligation to fund its obligations pursuant to this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Fronting L/C Issuer, any Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C
Agent, as applicable, the Administrative Agent, any Borrower, any other Applicant or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or
not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Base Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other
than delivery by the applicable Borrower of a Loan Notice). No such funding by any Lender shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to pay each Unreimbursed Amount, together with interest as provided herein. 

(viii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant
to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i) or Section 2.03(c)(ii), as applicable, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, the applicable Limited Fronting Lender or
the Several L/C Agent (to the extent that the Several L/C Agent shall have funded such amount on behalf of such Lender, it being understood and agreed that the Several L/C Agent shall have no obligation or liability to fund any amount under any
Several Letter of Credit other than in its capacity as a Lender), as applicable, shall, through the Administrative Agent, be entitled to recover from such Lender, on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment
is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Administrative Agent with respect to any amounts
owing under this clause (viii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (d) Repayment of Fundings.

 (i) If after any Lender has funded its obligation under Section 2.03(c) in respect of any drawing under any
Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent receives any payment (including any payment of interest) in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral
applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), then the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as 

  

					
		 	35	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
provided herein) thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s funding was outstanding) in the same funds as
those received by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender has not funded its obligation as aforesaid, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment shall be paid to the applicable Fronting L/C
Issuer, the applicable Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C Agent (if the Several L/C Agent shall have funded on behalf of such Lender, as provided in Section 2.03(c)(viii)), as applicable. 

(ii) If any payment made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.03(d)(i) is required to
be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) thereof on
demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the applicable Borrower to pay each Unreimbursed Amount shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document; 

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that such Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at
any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Fronting L/C Issuer, any Limited Fronting Lender, the Several L/C Agent, any Lender,
the Administrative Agent or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 

(iv) any payment by the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, the applicable Limited Fronting Lender or the Lenders under such Letter
of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or any payment made by such Fronting L/C Issuer, such Limited Fronting Lender or the Lenders, as applicable, under such
Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of
Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 

  

					
		 	36	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (v) any adverse change in the relevant currency exchange rates or in the
availability of an Alternative Currency to the Borrowers or in the relevant currency markets generally; or 
 (vi) any other
circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Borrower or any Subsidiary. 

Each Borrower and any other Applicant shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto requested by such
Borrower and such Applicant that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower’s or such Applicant’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower or such Applicant will notify the applicable
Fronting L/C Issuer (with respect to Fronted Letters of Credit issued by such Fronting L/C Issuer) or the Several L/C Agent (with respect to Several Letters of Credit) within two Business Days of receipt of such Letter of Credit or amendment. Such
Borrower or such Applicant shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent or the Lenders, as applicable, unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 

(f) Role of Fronting L/C Issuer and Several L/C Agent. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing
under a Letter of Credit, neither the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer nor the Several L/C Agent shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit)
or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. Neither the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer nor the Several L/C Agent, any Agent-Related Person
nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the
approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any Issuer
Document. Each Borrower and any other Applicant hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended
to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent, any Agent-Related
Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Fronting L/C Issuers or the Several L/C Agent shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of
Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower (or any other applicable Applicant) may have a claim against the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or
the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, may be liable to such Borrower or such Applicant to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential
or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower or such Applicant which such Borrower or such Applicant proves were caused primarily by such Fronting L/C Issuer’s or the Several L/C Agent’s, as applicable, willful misconduct or gross
negligence or such Fronting L/C Issuer’s or the Several L/C Agent’s, as applicable, willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying
with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, any Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, 

  

					
		 	37	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
as applicable, shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. Any Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to
or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary. 

(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent (given at the request or with the consent of the
Required Lenders), if, as of the date that is twelve months after the Maturity Date (and from time to time thereafter, but no more often than once every thirty days, in the event of subsequent currency fluctuations), any Letter of Credit for any
reason remains outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the applicable Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount at such time).
Sections 2.04 and 8.02(c) set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.03, Section 2.04 and Section 8.02(c), “Cash
Collateralize” means to pledge to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer(s), the applicable Limited Fronting Lender(s) and/or the Lenders, as applicable, as collateral for the L/C Obligations,
deposit account balances denominated in Dollars or, at the applicable Borrower’s option if the Letter(s) of Credit giving rise to such L/C Obligations are denominated in an Alternative Currency, in such Alternative Currency and maintained with
the Administrative Agent pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of “Cash Collateralize” shall have corresponding
meanings. Each Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer(s), the applicable Limited Fronting Lender(s) or the Lenders, as applicable, a security interest in all such deposit accounts
and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing delivered by such Borrower as Cash Collateral. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in a blocked deposit account at Bank of America. 

(h) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable
Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of
Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, shall not be responsible to the applicable Borrower for, and the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer’s or the Several L/C
Agent’s, as applicable, rights and remedies against such Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, required or permitted under any Law, order, or
practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, or the beneficiary is
located or the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable. 
 (i) Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share (subject to clause (j) below) a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit issued for the
account of such Borrower equal to the Applicable Rate (converted to a daily rate) times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a
quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the 20th day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance 

  

					
		 	38	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
of such Letter of Credit, on the Maturity Date, on the date that is twelve months after the Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any
quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 

(j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges. Each Borrower shall pay to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer,
through the Administrative Agent, for its own account a fronting fee (converted to a daily rate) with respect to each Fronted Letter of Credit with respect to which it is the Applicant or the Co-Applicant in the amount specified in the applicable
Fee Letter, payable on the Dollar Equivalent of the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such fronting fee shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the
20th day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter
of Credit, on the Maturity Date, on the date that is twelve months after the Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, each Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, for its
own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard and reasonable costs and charges, of such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, relating to each Letter of Credit as
from time to time in effect. During any period in which a Lead Lender acts as a Limited Fronting Lender or as a Confirming Bank for any Lender that becomes an Affected Lender or a Non-NAIC Approved Bank, as applicable, the Letter of Credit Fee
payable to such Affected Lender or such Non-NAIC Approved Bank shall be reduced by 0.25% per annum (or such other percentage as such Lead Lender and such Affected Bank or Non-NAIC Approved Bank may agree) and such Lead Lender shall receive the
amount of such reduction from each Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, for its own account as a fronting fee or confirmation fee, as applicable. In the event that any other Lender agrees to act as a Limited Fronting Lender or Confirming Bank
for any Lender that becomes an Affected Lender or a Non-NAIC Approved Bank, such other Lender shall receive such compensation therefor as such Affected Lender or Non-NAIC Approved Bank and such other Lender may agree. 

(k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer
Document (including any Letter of Credit Application), the terms hereof shall control. 
 (l) Letters of Credit Issued for
Subsidiaries. MetLife, as Co-Applicant, shall be obligated to pay each Unreimbursed Amount and accrued interest thereon with respect to each Letter of Credit that is issued or outstanding hereunder in support of any obligations of, or is for the
account of, any Subsidiary of MetLife (other than Funding). MetLife hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of MetLife, and that MetLife’s business derives
substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries. 
 (m) Amendments to Several Letters of Credit.
Outstanding Several Letters of Credit shall be amended or reissued, as appropriate, to give effect to any elections selected by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.14. 

  

					
		 	39	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 2.04 Prepayments. 

(a) Any Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in
whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and
(B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate
Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such
prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s applicable share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by
any Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided, that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned
upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by such Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Any
prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans of the Lenders in
accordance with their respective applicable shares of such prepayment. 
 (b) If for any reason (including currency
fluctuations) the Total Outstandings at any time exceed 100% of the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, the Borrowers shall immediately (or within two Business Days after notice thereof from the Administrative Agent if such excess is caused by
currency fluctuations), first, prepay or repay Loans and/or Unreimbursed Amounts and, second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess or cause one or more of the outstanding Letters of Credit to be
cancelled or reduced so that such excess is eliminated; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) unless after the prepayment in full of
the Loans the Total Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect. 
 (c) Without limiting
clause (z) of the first proviso of Section 2.03(a)(i), if, as a result of currency fluctuations, the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit Usage of a Lender at any time exceeds 105% of the Fronting/Confirming L/C Sublimit of such
Lender (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, for any excess less than or equal to 105% of such Fronting/Confirming Sublimit), the applicable Borrower shall, at the request of such Lender and within two Business Days after such request,
first, repay any Unreimbursed Amounts owing to such Lender and, second, either Cash Collateralize the amount of such excess above such Fronting/Confirming L/C Sublimit or cause one or more of the outstanding Letters of Credit issued by
such Lender to be cancelled, reduced or cancelled and reissued as one or more Several Letters of Credit, in each case so that such excess above such Fronting/Confirming L/C Sublimit is eliminated. 

(d) Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Required Lenders, notify
the Borrowers that the Aggregate Commitments and the Commitment of each Lender shall terminate as of the date of such notice. If such notice of termination has been requested by the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall also, at that time
or later, at the request of the Required Lenders, additionally notify the Borrowers that they shall prepay the Outstanding Amount of their Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Outstanding Amount of their L/C Obligations, and each Borrower agrees that
upon such additional notice, such Borrower will promptly prepay the Outstanding Amount of its Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Outstanding Amount of its L/C Obligations. 

  

					
		 	40	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 2.05 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrowers may, upon notice to the
Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate Commitments and this Agreement, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments under this Agreement; provided that (a) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative
Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (b) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and
(c) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayment and/or Cash Collateralization hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Commitments;
and provided, further, that a notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments under this Section 2.05 may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in
which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such
notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share; provided
that, during any period in which a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrowers may (in their discretion) apply all or any portion to be specified by the Borrowers of any optional reduction of unused Aggregate Commitments under this
Section 2.05 to the unused Commitments of any one or more Defaulting Lenders specified by the Borrowers (which application may result in a change of the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders) before applying any remaining reduction to the
unused Commitments of all Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. Notwithstanding the
termination of the Aggregate Commitments, this Agreement shall not terminate, and the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement shall continue, until all Letters of Credit have expired, been replaced or been terminated and each Unreimbursed
Amount and all interest, fees and other amounts payable hereunder have been paid in full. 
 2.06 Repayment of Loans. Each Borrower
shall repay to each Lender on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of its Loans outstanding on such date and the Commitments of the Lenders shall terminate. 

2.07 Interest. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of Subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 

(b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether
at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by any Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due
(after any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then, upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to
the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

  

					
		 	41	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default
exists, each Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all its outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon
demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and
at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 

2.08 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Subsections (i) and (j) of Section 2.03: 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate (converted to a daily rate) times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the
sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in
Article V is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the 20th day (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day) of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Restatement Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate
during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 

(b) Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and the
Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Bank of America Fee Letter. The Borrowers shall pay to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC for its own account fees in the amounts and at the
times specified in the JPMorgan Fee Letter. The Borrowers shall pay to Wells Fargo Securities, LLC for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Wells Fargo Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall
not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 2.09 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate
Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the
basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on any Unreimbursed Amount for the day on which such
Unreimbursed Amount arises, and shall not accrue on such Unreimbursed Amount, or any portion thereof, for the day on which such Unreimbursed Amount or such portion is paid. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made,
and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11(a), bear
interest for one day. 

  

					
		 	42	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 2.10 Evidence of Debt. The Credit Extensions (and the L/C Obligations arising therefrom)
made or participated in by each Lender and the Pro Rata Shares (or other applicable shares as provided herein) shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of
business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions (and the L/C Obligations arising therefrom) made or participated in by the
Lenders and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of any Borrower hereunder to pay all amounts owing with respect to the Obligations. In the
event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of
manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such
accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

2.11 Payments Generally. 

(a) All payments to be made by any Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative
Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:30 p.m. on the date specified herein. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative
Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Alternative Currency. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as
provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:30 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any
applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 
 (b) If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day
other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(c) Unless any Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be
made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:30 p.m. on the date of such Borrowing), that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If
and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then: 

(i) if such Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the
portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to
such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and 

  

					
		 	43	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on
demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Borrower to the date such amount
is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount
shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon such
Borrower, and such Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Borrower or Applicant may have against any other Lender as a result of any default by such
Lender hereunder. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this
Subsection (c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (d) If any Lender makes available to the
Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to any Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the
applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without
interest. 
 (e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to honor drawings under, and to fund
participations in, Letters of Credit are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such drawing or participation when required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do
so, and except for Limited Fronting Lenders with respect to Several Letters of Credit they have issued on behalf of Affected Lenders or Non-NAIC Approved Banks, no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan,
honor a drawing or purchase its participation. 
 (f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the
funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan or other funding obligation in any particular place or manner. 

2.12 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made
by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations held by it (whether as an issuer or as a participant), any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other
share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued by them,
and/or such subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such 

  

					
		 	44	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the
purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other
Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required
repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. Each Borrower
agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation or subparticipation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.09)
with respect to such participation or subparticipations as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation or subparticipation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be
conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations or subparticipations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a
participation or subparticipation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the
Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. 
 2.13
Increase in Commitments. 
 (a) Notice of Increase. Provided no Event of Default has occurred and is then
continuing and the Borrowers have not theretofore terminated or reduced the Aggregate Commitments pursuant to Section 2.05, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.13, upon notice to the Administrative
Agent, the Borrowers may increase the Aggregate Commitments under this Agreement to an aggregate amount, after giving effect to all such increases, that does not exceed $5,000,000,000; provided that each increase shall be in a minimum amount of
$50,000,000. If such increase is to be effected in whole or in part through an increase in the Commitment of one or more of the existing Lenders (it being agreed that no existing Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment), such notice
shall be accompanied by a writing executed by each existing Lender that has agreed to increase its Commitment, setting forth the amount of its increased Commitment. If such increase is to be effected in whole or in part through the addition of one
or more Eligible Assignees as new Lenders, the addition of each such Eligible Assignee as a new Lender shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting L/C Issuers and the Several L/C Agent (to the extent that such consents
would be required under Section 10.07(g) if such Eligible Assignee were an assignee), which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and such notice shall be accompanied by the written agreement of each such Eligible
Assignee to become a Lender, setting forth the amount of its Commitment. 
 (b) Assistance by Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent agrees to provide such assistance as the Borrowers may reasonably request in soliciting increased Commitments from existing Lenders and/or Commitments from Eligible Assignees. 

(c) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of each increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders
(including any new Lenders) of the final allocation of such increase and such Increase Effective Date. On or before such Increase Effective Date, each Eligible Assignee that becomes a new Lender shall execute a


  

					
		 	45	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
joinder agreement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent is authorized and directed to amend and distribute to the
Lenders (including any new Lenders) a revised Schedule 2.01 that gives effect to each increase in the Aggregate Commitments and the allocation thereof among the Lenders (including any new Lenders). As soon as practicable (with the
intention of avoiding or minimizing any additional amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05), the applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall prepay any Loans outstanding on each Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts
required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section. 

(d) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 or
Section 10.01 to the contrary. 
 2.14 Affected Lenders; Non-NAIC Approved Banks. 

(a) Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent (which shall in turn notify the Several L/C Agent and the
Borrowers) upon becoming an Affected Lender with respect to a particular Several Letter of Credit. In the absence of receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice by a Lender that it has become an Affected Lender with respect to a particular
Several Letter of Credit, it shall be conclusively presumed by the Administrative Agent and the Several L/C Agent that such Lender is not an Affected Lender with respect to such Several Letter of Credit. If such notice is given by an Affected Lender
with respect to a particular Several Letter of Credit, such notice shall not be effective as a like notice with respect to any other Several Letter of Credit. If such notice is given by an Affected Lender with respect to a particular Several Letter
of Credit, (i) upon the Borrowers’ request the Lead Lenders will act as the Limited Fronting Lenders for such Affected Lender with respect to the applicable Several Letter of Credit, or (ii) the Borrowers may require that such
Affected Lender use commercially reasonable efforts to have a Lender (other than the Lead Lenders) act as the Limited Fronting Lender for such Affected Lender with respect to the applicable Several Letter of Credit. 

(b) Each Lender that is a NAIC Approved Bank on the Restatement Closing Date agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts in
order to, at all times, continue to be a NAIC Approved Bank. 
 (c) In the event that any Lender becomes a Non-NAIC Approved
Bank after the Restatement Closing Date, such Non-NAIC Approved Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers thereof and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent and each
Limited Fronting Lender thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may, from time to time so long as such Non-NAIC Approved Bank is a Non-NAIC Approved Bank and is a party hereto, elect to exercise one or more of the options set forth on
Schedule 2.14 (so long as the elected option(s) are not inconsistent with each other) by delivering a Non-NAIC Approved Bank Election Notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall in turn forward such notice to each Fronting L/C
Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, each Limited Fronting Lender, each Confirming Bank and the Lenders). 
 (d) If the Borrowers
elect to require the Lead Lenders to act as Limited Fronting Lenders and/or as Confirming Banks as set forth in subparagraph (a) of Schedule 2.14 or in clauses (a) and (c) of this
Section 2.14, then (i) the obligations of the Lead Lenders to so act as Limited Fronting Lenders and/or as Confirming Banks with respect to any Several Letter of Credit shall be shared among the Lead Lenders so acting as nearly
equally as is practicable as determined 

  

					
		 	46	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
by the Administrative Agent and (ii) a Lead Lender shall be obligated to so act as a Limited Fronting Lender and/or as a Confirming Bank with respect to a Several Letter of Credit only if,
after giving effect to the issuance, renewal, extension or amendment of such Several Letter of Credit, the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit Usage of such Lead Lender would not exceed the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit of such Lead Lender. The agreement of
each Lead Lender to act as a Limited Fronting Lender and/or as a Confirming Bank for such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, shall be upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and such other terms and conditions as
such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, and such Lead Lender may agree, which other terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall not otherwise affect any obligations
of the Lead Lenders to so act hereunder, and shall be in writing and a copy of such writing shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. Each Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender that enters into such an agreement shall promptly notify the
Borrowers, the Several L/C Agent and the Administrative Agent of any termination or expiration of such agreement. 
 (e) If
the Borrowers elect to require that such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to have a Lender (other than the Lead Lenders) act as a Limited Fronting Lender or a Confirming Bank as set forth
in subparagraph (b) of Schedule 2.14 or clauses (a) and (c) of this Section 2.14, then such Lender shall be obligated to so act as a Limited Fronting Lender or a Confirming Bank hereunder
only if, after giving effect to so acting, the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit Usage of such Lender would not exceed the Fronting/Confirming Sublimit of such Lender. The agreement of any Lender (other than a Lead Lender) to act as a Limited Fronting
Lender or a Confirming Bank for such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, shall be upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and such other terms and conditions as such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as
applicable, and such Lender may agree, which other terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall be in writing and a copy of such writing shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. If a
Lender becomes a Confirming Bank for a Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, such Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender, as applicable, shall enter into a confirming bank agreement with the Confirming Bank upon such terms as
the applicable parties may agree and furnish a copy thereof to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Several L/C Agent. Each Non-NAIC Approved Bank and Affected Lender that enters into such a confirming bank agreement shall promptly notify
the Borrowers, the Several L/C Agent and the Administrative Agent of any termination or expiration of such confirming bank agreement. 

(f) If the Borrowers elect to require that such Non-NAIC Approved Bank use commercially reasonable efforts to have an
acceptable financial institution act as a Confirming Bank as set forth in subparagraph (c) of Schedule 2.14, the agreement of any acceptable financial institution to act as a Confirming Bank for such Non-NAIC Approved Bank
shall be upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and such other terms and conditions as such Non-NAIC Approved Bank and such acceptable financial institution may agree, which other terms and conditions shall not be inconsistent with the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and shall be in writing and a copy of such writing shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent. If an acceptable financial institution becomes a Confirming Bank for a Non-NAIC Approved Bank, such Non-NAIC
Approved Bank shall enter into a confirming bank agreement with the Confirming Bank upon such terms as the applicable parties may agree and furnish a copy thereof to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Several L/C Agent. Each Non-NAIC
Approved Bank that enters into such a confirming bank agreement shall promptly notify the Borrowers, the Several L/C Agent and the Administrative Agent of any termination or expiration of such confirming bank agreement. 

  

					
		 	47	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (g) If the Borrowers elect to request that any Several Letter of Credit be
issued, renewed, extended or amended on an adjusted pro rata basis as set forth in subparagraph (e) of Schedule 2.14, (i) such issuance, renewal, extension or adjustment shall be made only to the extent that it would not
cause the Total Outstandings owing to any Lender to exceed such Lender’s Commitment and (ii) such Non-NAIC Approved Bank shall not be a Participating L/C Issuer with respect to such Several Letter of Credit. 

(h) If the Borrowers elect to request that any Several Letter of Credit be issued, renewed, extended or amended on an adjusted
pro rata basis as set forth in subparagraph (e) of Schedule 2.14, and thereafter the applicable Borrower requests a Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be advanced as provided in Section 2.02(f). 

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if any Lender becomes a Non-NAIC Approved Bank due to such Lender’s failure to
use commercially reasonable efforts to remain a NAIC Approved Bank, then the Borrowers may make one or more of the elections set forth on Schedule 2.14 and contemplated by this Section 2.14, but such Lender shall otherwise
have no liability or obligation to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders solely as a result of such Lender’s failure to use commercially reasonable efforts to remain a NAIC Approved Bank; and (ii) “commercially
reasonable efforts” as used in this Section 2.14, in Schedule 2.14 and Exhibit H shall not require any Non-NAIC Approved Bank or Affected Lender to incur any material unreimbursed cost or expense other than
any fees charged by the NAIC or any fronting fee or confirmation fee. 
 (j) If a Non-NAIC Approved Bank (including an
Existing Non-NAIC Approved Bank) becomes a NAIC Approved Bank at a time that it remains a party hereto or if a Lender that is an Affected Lender with respect to a particular Several Letter of Credit ceases to be an Affected Lender with respect to
such Several Letter of Credit at a time that it remains a party hereto, any transactions effected pursuant hereto, including those described on Schedule 2.14 and in this Section 2.14 as a result of such NAIC Approved Bank
being or becoming a Non-NAIC Approved Bank or such Lender being or becoming an Affected Lender, as applicable, shall be adjusted or modified as the Administrative Agent and the Several L/C Agent, in consultation with the Borrowers, deem appropriate
to give effect to the general intention that, subject to the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, the Lenders shall share their rights and obligations under the Loan Documents pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments. Without
limiting the foregoing, such adjustment shall include an amendment or reissuance of Several Letters of Credit to remove any fronting or confirming liability previously associated with such Non-NAIC Approved Bank. 

(k) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and on Schedule 2.14, the Lenders (including the Lead
Lenders) shall be obligated to comply with the Borrowers’ election to exercise one or more of the options set forth on Schedule 2.14. 

2.15 Additional Defaulting Lender Matters. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.01. 

  

					
		 	48	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees
or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 10.09 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, or any Limited Fronting Lender hereunder; third, to provide Risk Participation Cash
Collateral on a pro rata basis for the risk of any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of
Default then exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by
the Administrative Agent or requested by any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, any Limited Fronting Lender and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s
potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) provide Risk Participation Cash Collateral for any future funding obligation of such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under
this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender,
any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event
of Default then exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of
any Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.02
were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Unreimbursed Amounts owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Unreimbursed Amounts owed
to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to
Section 2.15(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to provide Risk Participation Cash Collateral pursuant to
this Section 2.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  

					
		 	49	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (iii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any
Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 2.08(a) for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such Commitment Fee that would otherwise have been required to have been paid to such
Defaulting Lender). No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Letter of Credit Fee pursuant to Section 2.03(i) for any period during which it is a Defaulting Lender, (A) if such Defaulting Lender has become a Defaulting
Lender pursuant to clause (a) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” or (B) in respect of any Letter of Credit with respect to which the Borrowers have provided Risk Participation Cash
Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(F) (and in the case of clauses (A) and (B), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such Letter of Credit Fee that would otherwise have been required to be paid to
such Defaulting Lender), except that, (1) in the case of a Fronted Letter of Credit, if such Defaulting Lender has become a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (a) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting
Lender” and the Borrowers have not provided Risk Participation Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(F) with respect to such Letter of Credit, then the Borrowers shall instead pay such Letter of Credit Fee to the
applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, and (2) in the case of a Several Letter of Credit, and whether or not the Borrowers have provided Risk Participation Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(a)(iii)(F) with respect to such Letter of
Credit, (x) if a Lead Lender is the Limited Fronting Lender for such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall be required to pay to such Lead Lender a fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the actual daily
maximum amount available to be drawn under such Several Letter of Credit and (y) if another Lender is the Limited Fronting Lender for such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Several Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall pay to such Limited
Fronting Lender such fee as the Borrowers may have agreed to pay in such circumstance. 
 (iv) Reallocation of Applicable
Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Fronted Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares
(calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have
otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of the Loans of any Non-Defaulting Lender, plus the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations owing to such Non-Defaulting Lender (whether as an issuer or as a participant) to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of
such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If
the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Fronting L/C Issuers agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such
notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Risk Participation Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the
other Lenders or will take such actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with their respective
Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a 

  

					
		 	50	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting
Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 ARTICLE III. 

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

3.01 Taxes. 

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of either Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) with respect to Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes, the sum payable shall be
increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including deductions of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or
Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall make such deductions of Taxes and (iii) such Borrower or the
Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 

(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes not paid pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(iii) to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 
 (c) Without duplication of amounts paid by such
Borrower under Section 3.01(a) or (b), each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable
to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest, additions to tax and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided, that such Borrower shall not be obligated to make a payment pursuant to this
Section 3.01 in respect of penalties, interest and additions to tax attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, if (i) such penalties, interest and additions to tax are attributable to the failure of the Administrative
Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, to pay amounts paid to the Administrative Agent or such Lender by such Borrower (for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes) to the relevant Governmental Authority within twenty (20) days after receipt of
such payment from such Borrower or (ii) such penalties, interest and additions to tax are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. Within forty-five
(45) days after the Administrative Agent or such Lender learns of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, such Person shall give notice to the relevant Borrower of the payment by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case
may be, of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, and of the assertion by any Governmental Authority that such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are due and payable, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect such Borrower’s
obligations hereunder to reimburse the Administrative Agent and such Lender for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, except that such Borrower shall not be liable for penalties, interest and other liabilities accrued or incurred after such 45-day
period until such time as it receives the notice contemplated above, after which time it shall be liable for penalties, interest and other liabilities accrued or incurred prior to or 

  

					
		 	51	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
during such 45-day period and accrued or incurred after such receipt. Such Borrower shall not be liable for any penalties, interest and other liabilities with respect to such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes to the extent it has reimbursed the amount thereof to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability with reasonable supporting detail with respect thereto
delivered to the applicable Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Within 30 days after any payment of Indemnified Taxes (or Other Taxes if requested by the Administrative Agent) by the
relevant Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence of such payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, provided that nothing in this paragraph shall require any Borrower to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential). 

(e) Each Foreign Lender, before it signs and delivers this Agreement if listed on the signature pages hereof, or before it
becomes a Lender in the case of each other Foreign Lender, shall provide each Borrower and the Administrative Agent either (i) two accurate, complete and signed originals of either (x) IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor form, or (y) IRS
Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8IMY (on behalf of itself and together with any other supporting documentation that is required), or any successor form, in each case indicating that such Lender is on the date of
delivery thereof entitled to receive payments of interest hereunder free from, or subject to a reduced rate of withholding of, United States Federal income tax or (ii) in the case of such a Lender that is entitled to claim exemption from
withholding of United States Federal income tax under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender is (A) not
a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) not a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (C) not a controlled
foreign corporation related to any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) two accurate, complete and signed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8IMY (on behalf of itself and together with any
other supporting documentation that is required), or any successor Form. Each Foreign Lender shall deliver renewals or additional copies of such forms (or successor forms) that are required to be delivered under this Section 3.01(e) on
or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete. Each Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall provide each Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall provide each Borrower, with two accurate, complete
and signed originals of the IRS Form W-9, properly certifying a complete exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax. 
 (f)
Each Lender on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, and from time to time thereafter, either upon the request of the Administrative Agent, either Borrower, or upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously
delivered documentation, shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers any documentation that is required under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations (including any documentation that is required as a result of a change in law
occurring after the date hereof) to enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent or any other party to determine and execute their respective obligations, duties and liabilities with respect to FATCA, including but not limited to any Taxes any
of them may be required to withhold in respect of FATCA. 

  

					
		 	52	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (g) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the
Administrative Agent or any Borrower did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative
Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Borrower, as the case may be, fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the
Administrative Agent or such Borrower, as the case may be, as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Borrower,
as the case may be under this paragraph (g), together with all costs and expenses related thereto. 
 (h) The
obligations of the parties to this Agreement under this Section 3.01 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(i) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its good faith judgment, that it has actually received or realized
any refund of tax or any reduction of its tax liabilities or otherwise recovered any amount in connection with any deduction or withholding or payment of any additional amount by any Borrower pursuant to Section 3.04 or this
Section 3.01, such Person shall reimburse such Borrower within 45 days in an amount equal to the net benefit, after tax, of such refund, reduction or recovery, and net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Person in
connection with such refund, reduction or recovery; provided, that nothing in this paragraph (i) shall require any Person to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems to be
confidential). In the event that the reimbursement described in the preceding sentence is determined to have been paid to any Borrower in error, such Borrower shall return such amount to the applicable Person within 45 days of when such Person is
required to repay such refund of tax or is not entitled to such reduction of, or credit against, its tax liabilities. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund or direct credit in respect of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts, it shall promptly notify such Borrower of the availability of such refund or direct credit and
shall, within 45 days after receipt of a request for such by such Borrower (whether as a result of notification that it has made of such to such Borrower or otherwise), make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such refund or direct credit and
contest such Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or liabilities if (i) such Borrower has agreed in writing to pay all of such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses relating to such claim or
contest, and (ii) such Lender or the Administrative Agent determines, in its good faith judgment, that it would not be materially disadvantaged or prejudiced as a result of such claim or contest (it being understood that the mere existence of
fees, charges, costs or expenses that such Borrower has offered and agreed to pay on behalf of such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to be materially disadvantageous to such Person). 

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision, the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify or make any additional payment under
this Agreement to any Person with respect to any Excluded Taxes. 
 3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made
it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge
interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank eurodollar market, then, on
notice thereof by such Lender to the applicable Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended,
and 

  

					
		 	53	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
(ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the
Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such
Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined
by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or
immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative
Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer
illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees
to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. 

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation
thereof, (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan or
(ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan (in each
case with respect to clause (a) above, “Impacted Loans”), or (b) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect
to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the applicable Borrower and each Lender (each of the events or
occurrences described in clause (a) above or this clause (b), a “Market Disruption Event”). Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to
the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar
Base Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any
pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. During any period in which a Market Disruption Event is in effect, the applicable Borrower may request, through the Administrative Agent, that the Required Lenders or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, confirm that the circumstances giving rise to the Market Disruption Event continue to be in effect. If, within ten Business Days following such confirmation request, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as
applicable, have not confirmed the continued effectiveness of such Market Disruption Event, then such Market Disruption Event shall no longer be deemed to be in effect; provided, that (A) the applicable Borrower shall not be permitted to
submit any such request more than once in any 30 day period and (B) nothing contained in this Section 3.03 or the failure to provide confirmation of the continued effectiveness of such Market Disruption Event shall in any way affect
the Administrative Agent’s or the Required Lenders’, as applicable, right to provide any additional notices of a Market Disruption Event as provided in this Section 3.03. 

  

					
		 	54	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described
in clause (a) of this Section 3.03, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Required Lenders and with the approval of the applicable Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in
which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes (or is deemed to have revoked) the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under
clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03, (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its
applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material
restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower written notice thereof. 

3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves. 

(a) If any Lender determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation by any
Governmental Authority of any Law after the Restatement Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance with any request, guideline or directive of any Governmental Authority made or issued after the Restatement Closing Date, there shall be any
increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender
in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Subsection (a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern),
(ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or any foreign jurisdiction or any political subdivision of either thereof under the Laws of which such Lender is organized, or in which
its principal office is located or has its Lending Office (or in the case of a jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) that imposes taxes on the basis of management or control or other concept of principal office or residence, the
jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) in which such Lender is so resident), and (iii) reserve requirements utilized, as to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate, then from time to time within thirty
days after demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent) in accordance with Section 3.06, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such
increased cost or reduction. For purposes of the foregoing and Section 3.04(b), (A) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued
in connection therewith and (B) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or
foreign regulatory authorities, in such case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be introduced, changed, made or issued after the Restatement Closing Date regardless of the date introduced, changed or made; provided, that,
as to any Lender seeking compensation under this Section 3.04(a) with respect to any increased cost or reduction incurred or suffered as a result of clause (A) or (B) of this sentence, such Lender shall only be so
compensated to the extent such Lender is then generally seeking such compensation from similarly situated customers under agreements relating to similar credit transactions that include provisions similar to the first sentence of this
Section 3.04(a). 

  

					
		 	55	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital
adequacy or liquidity requirements or any change therein or in the interpretation by any Governmental Authority thereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) with any request, guideline or directive of any Governmental Authority made
or issued after the Restatement Closing Date, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into
consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy, liquidity requirements and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time within thirty days after demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent) in accordance with Section 3.06, the Borrowers shall jointly and severally pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. 

(c) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 shall not
constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to this Section 3.04 for any increased costs or reductions incurred
more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the applicable Borrower or the Borrowers of the change in or in the interpretation of law or regulation 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 or in the interpretation of law or regulation giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above
shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender
(with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, each Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense (excluding any loss of anticipated profits or loss of margin) incurred
by it as a result of: 
 (a) except as a result of circumstances set forth in Section 3.02, any continuation,
conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan to it other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration or otherwise); 

(b) any failure by such Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow,
continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by such Borrower (in the case of a prepayment, whether or not any prior notice of such prepayment has been revoked); 

(c) any failure by such Borrower to make payment of any drawing under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative
Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency (except as provided herein); or 
 (d) any
assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan (except by a Defaulting Lender) on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by such Borrower pursuant to Section 10.15; 

  

					
		 	56	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by
it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. 
 For purposes of calculating
amounts payable by any Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by
a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 

3.06 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. 

(a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting
forth in reasonable detail the basis for such claim and a calculation of the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 

(b) Upon any Lender’s making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or 3.04, the Borrowers may
replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.15. 
 3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this
Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 
 ARTICLE IV.

Until the Commitments and all Letters of Credit have expired or been terminated and the principal of and interest on each Loan and each

another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the

Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof;
(ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as
not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials

authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any

shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term
“agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such
term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 

(b) Each Fronting L/C Issuer and the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to the
Fronted Letters of Credit issued by it or the Several Letters of Credit, as applicable, and the documents associated therewith, and each Fronting L/C Issuer and the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, shall have all of the benefits and immunities
(i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Fronting L/C Issuer or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or
proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Article IX and in the definition of
“Agent-Related Person” included such Fronting L/C Issuer and the Several L/C Agent with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Fronting L/C Issuer and the Several L/C Agent, as
applicable. 
 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to the
Lenders for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith after due inquiry. 

9.03 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by
any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or
(b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or Participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report,
statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or
Participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower or any
Affiliate thereof. 
 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing,
communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine
and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Borrower), independent accountants and 

  

					
		 	71	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by
reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent
of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.01, each Lender that has
signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Restatement Closing Date specifying its objection thereto. 

9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default,
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Limited Fronting Lenders or the Several L/C Agent, as
applicable, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent
will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided,
however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it
shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 
 9.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative
Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the
affairs of any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in
their possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and
based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such
investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be
furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property,
financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person. 

  

					
		 	72	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 9.07 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Borrower and without limiting the obligation of any Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold
harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that (a) no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such
Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, provided,
however, that no action taken in accordance with the express directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section, and (b) no Lender shall be liable for the
payment of any Indemnified Liabilities pursuant to this Section unless such Indemnified Liabilities were incurred by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such or by another Agent-Related Person acting for the Administrative Agent in such
capacity. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers. The undertaking
in this Section shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent. 

9.08 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. Bank of America and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for
the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates as though Bank of
America were not the Administrative Agent, a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of
America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative
Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans and L/C Credit Extensions, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights
and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Bank of America in its individual capacity. 

9.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the
Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders, which successor administrative agent shall be consented
to by the Borrowers at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Borrowers shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of
the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrowers, a successor administrative agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor
administrative agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers 

  

					
		 	73	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment,
powers and duties as Administrative Agent (other than to continue to hold any Cash Collateral or Risk Participation Cash Collateral until such time as a successor administrative agent is appointed) shall be terminated without any other or further
act or deed on the part of such retiring Administrative Agent or any other Lender. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.05
shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30
days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative
Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor administrative agent as provided for above. 
 9.10
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, the
Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any
demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and
prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order
to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all
other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and 2.03(j), 2.08 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount
due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.08 and 10.05. 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

9.11 Other Agents; Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or
signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-documentation agent” or “arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so 

  

					
		 	74	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons
so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR
STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE

for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any
other electronic platform or electronic messaging service or through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable

and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices and Loan Notices) reasonably believed by them to be genuine and to have been given by or on behalf of the Borrowers even if (i) such notices were
not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrowers

by or on behalf of the Borrowers. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person
in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 

10.04 Enforcement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce
rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrowers (and any other Applicant that is not a Borrower) shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall
be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent, and any Limited Fronting Lender; provided,
however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents, (b) any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender, as applicable, from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Fronting L/C Issuer, Several
L/C Agent, or Limited Fronting Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance
with Section 10.09 (subject to the terms of Section 2.12), or (d) any Lender, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on
its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to the Borrowers under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b),
(c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.12, any Lender, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Limited Fronting Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce

hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights

counsel for the Indemnitees, unless the Indemnitees have conflicting interests that cannot reasonably be represented by one counsel, in which case such expenses shall include the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of no more than such number
of counsels as are necessary to represent such conflicting interests) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, or the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the

comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), 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 regardless of whether
any Indemnitee is a party thereto (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
penalties or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y) are determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from a breach in bad faith by an Indemnitee in any material respect of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or
(z) result from any action, suit, proceeding or claim solely among Indemnitees brought by any Indemnitee against any other Indemnitee (other than such other Indemnitee acting in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Fronting L/C Issuer, Several
L/C Agent and/or Limited Fronting Lender to the extent otherwise entitled to be indemnified hereunder) that does not involve an act or omission (or alleged act or omission) by the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ affiliates. 

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent under
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.05, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity

such. 
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any
claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)

arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan, any Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof. 
 (e) No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or
other materials obtained through IntraLinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement. 

(f) The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any
Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
 10.06
Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, any Limited Fronting Lender, any Confirming Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any
Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, any Limited Fronting Lender, any Confirming Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, such Limited Fronting Lender, such
Confirming Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, rehabilitator, conservator, custodian, liquidator, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to
the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) such Fronting
L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, such Limited Fronting Lender, such Confirming Bank and each such Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the applicable Person) upon demand its applicable share of any amount
so recovered from or repaid by the applicable party, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 

10.07 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
Subsection (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Subsection (f) of this Section, or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of
Subsection (h) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the
parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Subsection (b), participations in L/C Obligations, whether as an issuer or
a participant) at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except 

  

					
		 	80	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans and L/C Obligations at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to
a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and L/C Obligations outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment, determined
as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than
$5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and such consent by the Borrowers
being deemed to have been given unless the Borrowers shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having actually received notice thereof); provided that concurrent assignments to
members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining
whether such minimum amount has been met; (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, the risk
participations in Letters of Credit and the Commitment assigned; (iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Fronting L/C Issuers, the applicable Limited Fronting Lender (if such assignment involves
the Commitment of a Lender for which a Limited Fronting Lender acts) or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself a Lender (whether
or not the proposed assignee would otherwise qualify as an Eligible Assignee); (iv) none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Loans and L/C Obligations under the applicable Assignment and Assumption constitutes
“plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the Eligible Assignee in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA; and (v) the parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with, unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Subsection (c) of this Section 10.07, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to
the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have (in addition to any such rights or obligations then otherwise held by it) the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, each Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with this Subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Subsection (d) of this Section 10.07. 

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal and interest amounts of the Loans and L/C


  

					
		 	81	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest
error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or other substantive change to
the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C
Issuer, any Limited Fronting Lender or the Several L/C Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or a Borrower or any of a Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a
portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations, whether as an issuer or a participant) owing
to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and
(iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that
such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such
Participant. Subject to Subsection (e) of this Section 10.07, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a
Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each of the Borrowers
(solely for tax purposes), 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
(the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that
such Loan or other obligation under this Agreement is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or such disclosure is otherwise required in connection with compliance with the Code. 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. 

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent. A Participant that
would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrowers are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the
Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.01 as though it were a Lender. 

  

					
		 	82	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any
portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over
such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(g) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and
(d) any other Person (other than a natural person) approved by (i) the Administrative Agent, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent and any Limited Fronting Lender (but only if the Lender who is the assignor is a Participating L/C
Issuer with respect to such Limited Fronting Lender), and (ii) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and such consent by the Borrowers being
deemed to have been given unless the Borrowers shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having actually received notice thereof); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing,
“Eligible Assignee” shall not include (A) any Borrower, (B) any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (C) a Defaulting Lender, or (D) a Person who is a Non-NAIC Approved Bank at the effective time of the
assignment pursuant to this Section 10.07 (unless such Person is otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and the Lead Lenders). 

“Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing,
holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its activities. 

“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of
a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 “Assignee
Group” means two or more Eligible Assignees that are Affiliates of one another or two or more Approved Funds managed by the same investment advisor. 

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a
special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting
Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan or any L/C Obligation and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option
or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under
Section 2.11(c)(ii). Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the
Borrowers under this Agreement (including their obligations under Section 3.04), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the
Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder


  

					
		 	83	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees
(which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or
join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan
to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement
to such SPC. 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time any Lead Lender assigns all of
its Commitment and Loans pursuant to Subsection (b) above, such Lead Lender may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as
applicable. In the event of any such resignation as a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Fronting L/C Issuer, a
Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent hereunder, if any Lender is willing to so act; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrowers to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of such Lead Lender as a
Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable. If a Lead Lender resigns as a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, it shall retain all the rights and
obligations of a Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as a Fronting L/C
Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto. Upon the appointment of a successor Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as
applicable (and its acceptance of such appointment), and the receipt of any necessary approvals from any beneficiaries of any outstanding Letters of Credit and any insurance regulatory authorities, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become
vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Fronting L/C Issuer, a Limited Fronting Lender and/or the Several L/C Agent, as applicable, and (b) the successor Fronting L/C Issuer, a the Several L/C Agent, as
applicable, shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit (or amend any such Several Letters of Credit in respect of a Limited Fronting Lender), if any, issued by such retiring Fronting L/C Issuer and/or the Several L/C
Agent, as applicable, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to such Lead Lender to effectively assume the obligations of such Lead Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit issued by it. 

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time any Lead Lender or any successor Fronting L/C
Issuer, as applicable, becomes a Non-NAIC Approved Bank, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Fronting L/C Issuer hereunder with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), but without the consent of any other party; provided, however, that such Lender is willing to so act and is a NAIC Approved Bank at the time of such appointment. If any Lead Lender or any successor
Fronting L/C Issuer, as applicable, is replaced by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 10.07(j), such Lead Lender or such successor Fronting L/C Issuer, as applicable, shall retain all the rights and obligations of a Fronting L/C
Issuer 

  

					
		 	84	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
hereunder with respect to all Fronted Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the effective date of its replacement as Fronting L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect
thereto. Upon the appointment of a successor Fronting L/C Issuer (and its acceptance of such appointment) and the receipt of any necessary approvals from any beneficiaries of any outstanding Fronted Letters of Credit and any insurance regulatory
authorities, (a) the successor Fronting L/C Issuer shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the replaced Fronting L/C Issuer and (b) the successor Fronting L/C Issuer shall issue letters
of credit in substitution for the Fronted Letters of Credit issued by such replaced Fronting L/C Issuer, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to such replaced Fronting L/C Issuer to effectively
assume the obligations of such replaced Fronting L/C Issuer with respect to such Fronted Letters of Credit. 
 10.08 Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and
to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors, auditors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of
such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any
remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions
substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective
counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations or to any actual or prospective credit insurance provider relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) with
the consent of any Borrower, or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section by such Person or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C
Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than any Borrower. In the event that the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender becomes legally compelled to
disclose any confidential Information pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 10.08, the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or such Lender shall, to the extent permitted by law, give prompt
written notice of that fact to the Borrowers prior to the disclosure so that the Borrowers may seek an appropriate remedy to prevent or limit such disclosure and the Administrative Agent, such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or such
Lender shall cooperate reasonably (at the expense of the Borrowers) with the Borrowers in seeking such remedy. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
relating to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis
prior to disclosure by any Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from any Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Restatement Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery
as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain
the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting L/C Issuers, the Several L/C Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may
include material non-public information concerning the Borrowers, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information, and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance
with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 

  

					
		 	85	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 10.09 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrowers to the
fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of the respective Borrowers against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
such Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or indebtedness. Each
Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application. 
 10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document,
the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive
interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or the L/C Obligations or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or
premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the
Obligations hereunder. 
 10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and such counterparts shall have been deemed to have been delivered (in accordance with instructions communicated by the Administrative Agent to
the other parties hereto) for purposes of binding the parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 10.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete
and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any
other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent, any Limited Fronting
Lender or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of
any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

  

					
		 	86	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made
hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will
be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C Issuer, any Limited Fronting Lender, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
any Loan, L/C Obligation or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

10.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable,
(a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall
not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 10.15 Mitigation of Obligations; Replacement of
Lenders. 
 (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if any Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, then such Lender shall, upon the request of such Borrower, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending
Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or
reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.01, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.
Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(b) If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender, an Affected Lender or a Non-NAIC Approved Bank (other
than an Existing Non-NAIC Approved Bank), or under any circumstances otherwise set forth herein providing that the Borrowers shall have the right to replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Borrowers may, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance) pursuant to Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible
Assignees procured by the Borrowers and upon the effectiveness of such assignment, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto; provided, however, that if the Borrowers elect to exercise such right with respect to a Non-Consenting
Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. Upon the making of any such assignment, the Borrowers shall pay in full any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05. 

10.16 Governing Law. 

(a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO
AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED ENTIRELY WITHIN SUCH STATE.

 10.18 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated
hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that: (a) (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (ii) each of the

to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a
broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the
Borrowers or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrowers hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers with respect to any
breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

 10.19 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not
on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrowers and any other Applicants, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and any other Applicants and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, to identify the Borrowers and any other Applicants in accordance with the Act. 
 10.20 Restatement Closing Date
Assignments. Certain of the banks and financial institutions party to one or both of the Original Credit Agreements are not party to this Agreement (such banks and financial institutions, the “Exiting Lenders”). Certain of the
Lenders party to this Agreement are identified on their signature pages hereto as “Continuing Lenders” and are party to one or both of the Original Credit Agreements. Certain of the Lenders party to this Agreement are identified on
their signature pages hereto as “Joining Lenders” and are not party to either of the Original Credit Agreements. Effective as of the Restatement Closing Date, and without any further action by the Borrowers, any Exiting Lender, any
Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other party hereto, (a) each of the Exiting Lenders and each of the Continuing Lenders whose aggregate amount of commitments under the Original Credit Agreements immediately prior to the Restatement
Closing Date is being reduced pursuant to this Agreement from its aggregate amount of commitments under the Original Credit Agreements (each a “Reducing Party”) shall be deemed to have irrevocably sold and assigned to each of the
Continuing Lenders whose aggregate amount of commitments under the Original Credit Agreements is being increased pursuant to this Agreement from its aggregate amount of commitments under the Original Credit Agreements and to each of the Joining
Lenders (each an “Increasing Party”) an undivided portion of its commitments under the Original Credit Agreements and its rights and obligations as a Lender under the Original Credit Agreements, this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (to the extent a party thereto), and each of the Increasing Parties shall be deemed to have irrevocably accepted and assumed from each of the Reducing Parties, an undivided portion of such commitments, rights and obligations, so that,
after giving effect thereto, each of the Continuing Lenders and each of the Joining Lenders has a Commitment as set forth on Schedule 2.01 to this Agreement, (b) each of the Exiting Lenders shall cease to be a party to this
Agreement or to have any further rights or obligations hereunder (other than any right or obligation, that pursuant to the Original Credit Agreements, expressly survives a termination of the commitment of such Exiting Lender under an Original Credit
Agreement), (c) each of the Joining Lenders shall become a party to this Agreement with a Commitment as set forth on Schedule 2.01 to this Agreement and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents (to the extent a party thereto), all as if the sales and assignments set forth in this Section 10.20 had been effected pursuant to one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements, and (d) each of the Continuing
Lenders shall continue to be a party hereto with a Commitment as set forth on Schedule 2.01 to this Agreement and shall continue to have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. For the
avoidance of doubt, until the Restatement Closing Date, each Exiting Lender and each Continuing Lender shall continue to hold its commitment under the applicable Original Credit Agreement. On the Restatement Closing Date, but subject to
Section 5.01, Loans shall be made (and loans outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement shall be repaid) so that, after giving effect thereto, any outstanding Loans are held by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro
Rata Shares. 
 10.21 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum
due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, 

  

					
		 	89	 	Five-Year Credit Agreement









 
the applicable Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding
that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to any Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement
Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment
Currency, such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement
Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation
and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum
originally due to such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, in such currency, such Fronting L/C Issuer, the Several L/C Agent or the Administrative Agent, as may be the case, agrees to return
the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).
