For
purposes hereof, the term “Pricing Date” means, for any Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower ending on or after September 30,
2021, the date on which the Administrative Agent is in receipt of the Borrower’s most recent financial statements and current Compliance
Certificate (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) for the Fiscal Quarter then ended, pursuant to Section 8.5
(for the sake of clarity, the financial statements and Compliance Certificate for the Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower ending September 30,
2021 are required to be delivered on or before November 30, 2021). The Applicable Margin shall be established based on the ratio
of Total Indebtedness to Total Asset Value for the most recently completed Fiscal Quarter and the Applicable Margin established on a
Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Borrower has not delivered its financial statements, including
a Compliance Certificate, by the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report)
are required to be delivered under Section 8.5, until such financial statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin
shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., Level VI shall apply). If the Borrower subsequently delivers such financial
statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered financial statements shall take effect
from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date. In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin established by such financial
statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the Fiscal Quarter covered by such financial
statements until the next Pricing Date. Each determination of the Applicable Margin made by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
the foregoing shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders if reasonably determined. The parties understand that the
Applicable Margin set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other
information to be provided or certified to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer by the Borrower (the “Borrower
Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower
Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including, without limitation, because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by the
Borrower) at the time it was delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and if the applicable interest rate
or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such
Applicable Margin for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall
pay within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Lender holding Commitments and Loans at the time the additional interest and fee payment is received.
Any recalculation of the Applicable Margin required by this provision shall survive for a period of two (2) months following
the termination of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, L/C Issuer’s
or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.


 


(b)            Commencing
on the date after an Interest Rate Election Date (if any), with respect to Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, and the Facility Fee and
letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.1, means the rates per annum determined in accordance with the following schedule:

During any period that the
Borrower has two Credit Ratings that are not equivalent, but are adjacent to each other in the immediately preceding pricing grid, then
the Applicable Margin will be determined based on the lowest rating. During any period that the Borrower has either (i) two Credit
Ratings that are not equivalent and are not adjacent to each other in the immediately preceding pricing grid or (ii) three Credit
Ratings that are each not equivalent to each other, then the Applicable Margin will be determined based on the level that is one level
above the lowest of such Credit Ratings. During any period after the Interest Rate Election that the Borrower has fewer than two Credit
Ratings, the Applicable Margin will be determined based on Level V of the grid immediately above. Any change in the Borrower’s
Credit Rating which would cause it to move to a different Level shall be effective five (5) Business Days after (i) the Administrative

that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to any Person to ascertain or inquire into the Borrower’s Credit
Rating). If it is subsequently determined that any change in the Borrower’s Credit Rating was not disclosed to Administrative Agent
in accordance with Section 8.5, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were lower than they should
have been had the correct information been timely provided in accordance with Section 8.5, then such Applicable Margin for such
period shall be automatically recalculated using the Borrower’s correct Credit Rating. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and the Borrower shall pay within
five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice such additional interest or fees due to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of each Lender holding Commitments and Loans at the time the additional interest and fee payment is received. Any recalculation
of the Applicable Margin required by this provision shall survive for a period of two (2) months following the termination
of this Agreement, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of the Administrative Agent’s, L/C Issuer’s or any Lender’s
other rights under this Agreement.

or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors
and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall

or other accounting computation is required to be made for the purposes of this Agreement, it shall be done in accordance with GAAP except
where such principles are inconsistent with the specific provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders
that whether or not the Borrower may at any time adopt Accounting Standards Codification 825 or account for assets and liabilities acquired

in a change in the method of calculation of any financial covenant, standard or term found in this Agreement, either the Borrower or the
Required Lenders may by notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, respectively, require that the Lenders and the Borrower negotiate in good

Commitments in effect at such time. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be made ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective
Revolver Percentages. As provided in Section 2.5, the Borrower may elect that each Borrowing of Revolving Loans be either Base Rate
Loans or Eurodollar Loans. Revolving Loans may be repaid and the principal amount thereof reborrowed before the Revolving Credit Termination
Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof.


 


Section 2.2.           Letters
of Credit. (a) General Terms.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, as part of the Revolving Credit, the L/C Issuer shall issue standby and commercial letters
of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower or for the account of the Borrower and one or
more of its Subsidiaries in an aggregate undrawn face amount up to the L/C Sublimit. The sum of the aggregate principal amount of
Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations at any time outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such
time. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued by the L/C Issuer, but each Lender shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer for such
Lender’s Revolver Percentage of the amount of each drawing thereunder and, accordingly, each Letter of Credit shall constitute
usage of the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender pro rata in an amount equal to its Revolver Percentage of the L/C Obligations
then outstanding.

(b)           Applications.
At any time before the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the L/C Issuer shall, at the request of the Borrower, issue one or more
Letters of Credit in U.S. Dollars, in a form satisfactory to the L/C Issuer, with expiration dates no later than the earlier of
12 months from the date of issuance (or which are cancelable not later than 12 months from the date of issuance and each renewal)
or 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, in an aggregate face amount as set forth above, upon the receipt of an
application duly executed by the Borrower and, if such Letter of Credit is for the account of one of its Subsidiaries, such Subsidiary
for the relevant Letter of Credit in the form then customarily prescribed by the L/C Issuer for the Letter of Credit requested (each
an “Application”). The Borrower agrees that if on the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date
any Letters of Credit remain outstanding the Borrower shall then deliver to the Administrative Agent, without notice or demand, Cash
Collateral in an amount equal to 103% of the aggregate amount of each Letter of Credit then outstanding (which shall be held by the Administrative
Agent pursuant to the terms of Section 9.4). Notwithstanding anything contained in any Application to the contrary: (i) the
Borrower shall pay fees in connection with each Letter of Credit as set forth in Section 3.1, (ii) except as otherwise provided
herein or in Section 2.7, Section 2.14 or Section 2.15, unless an Event of Default exists, the L/C Issuer will not call
for the funding by the Borrower of any amount under a Letter of Credit before being presented with a drawing thereunder, and (iii) if
the L/C Issuer is not timely reimbursed for the amount of any drawing under a Letter of Credit on the date such drawing is paid, the
Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing shall bear interest (which the Borrower hereby
promises to pay) from and after the date such drawing is paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the
Base Rate from time to time in effect (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number
of days elapsed). If the L/C Issuer issues any Letter of Credit with an expiration date that is automatically extended unless the L/C
Issuer gives notice that the expiration date will not so extend beyond its then scheduled expiration date, unless the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders instruct the L/C Issuer otherwise, the L/C Issuer will give such notice of non-renewal before the time
necessary to prevent such automatic extension if before such required notice date: (i) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit
if so extended would be after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated,
or (iii) a Default or an Event of Default exists and either the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (with notice to the
Administrative Agent) have given the L/C Issuer instructions not to so permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of
Credit. The L/C Issuer agrees to issue amendments to the Letter(s) of Credit increasing the amount, or extending the expiration
date, thereof at the request of the Borrower subject to the conditions of Section 7 and the other terms of this Section 2.2.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue, extend or amend any
Letter of Credit if a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under Section 2.2(c) exists or any Lender is at such
time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements with Borrower or such Lender satisfactory to
the L/C Issuer to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender.

(c)            The
Reimbursement Obligations. Subject to Section 2.2(b), the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for all drawings
under a Letter of Credit (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall be governed by the Application related to such Letter
of Credit, except that reimbursement shall be made by no later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date when each drawing
is to be paid if the Borrower has been informed of such drawing by the L/C Issuer on or before 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time) on
the date when such drawing is to be paid or, if notice of such drawing is given to the Borrower after 11:30 a.m. (Chicago time)
on the date when such drawing is to be paid, by no later than 12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the following Business Day, in immediately
available funds at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois or such other office as the Administrative
Agent may designate in writing to the Borrower (who shall thereafter cause to be distributed to the L/C Issuer such amount(s) in
like funds). If the Borrower does not make any such reimbursement payment on the date due and the Participating Lenders fund their participations
therein in the manner set forth in Section 2.2(e) below, then all payments thereafter received by the Administrative Agent
in discharge of any of the relevant Reimbursement Obligations shall be distributed in accordance with Section 2.2(e) below.


 


(d)           Obligations
Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Obligations as provided in subsection (c) of this Section shall
be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the relevant
Application under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter
of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment
by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not strictly comply with the terms
of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that
might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the
Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or the L/C Issuer shall have any liability or
responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make
any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption,
loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including
any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes
beyond the control of the L/C Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the L/C Issuer from liability
to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived
by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the L/C Issuer’s failure
to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the L/C Issuer (as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), the L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each
such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect
to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless
of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict
compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(e)           The
Participating Interests. Each Lender (other than the Lender acting as the L/C Issuer in issuing the relevant Letter of Credit), by
its acceptance hereof, severally agrees to purchase from the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer hereby agrees to sell to each such Lender
(a “Participating Lender”), an undivided percentage participating interest (a “Participating Interest”),
to the extent of its Revolver Percentage, in each Letter of Credit issued by, and each Reimbursement Obligation owed to, the L/C Issuer.
Upon any failure by the Borrower to pay any Reimbursement Obligation at the time required on the date the related drawing is to be paid,
as set forth in Section 2.2(c) above, or if the L/C Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrower or to a trustee,
receiver, liquidator, custodian or other Person any portion of any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation, each Participating Lender
shall, not later than the Business Day it receives a certificate in the form of Exhibit A hereto from the L/C Issuer (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent) to such effect, if such certificate is received before 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time), or not later
than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) the following Business Day, if such certificate is received after such time, pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer an amount equal to such Participating Lender’s Revolver Percentage of such unpaid or recaptured
Reimbursement Obligation together with interest on such amount accrued from the date the related payment was made by the L/C Issuer to
the date of such payment by such Participating Lender at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related payment was made
by the L/C Issuer to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Participating Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds
Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Participating
Lender to the date such payment is made by such Participating Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. Each such Participating
Lender shall thereafter be entitled to receive its Revolver Percentage of each payment received in respect of the relevant Reimbursement
Obligation and of interest paid thereon, with the L/C Issuer retaining its Revolver Percentage thereof as a Lender hereunder. The several
obligations of the Participating Lenders to the L/C Issuer under this Section 2.2 shall be absolute, irrevocable, and unconditional
under any and all circumstances whatsoever and shall not be subject to any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Participating
Lender may have or have had against the Borrower, the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person whatsoever.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations shall not be affected by any Default or Event of Default or by any
reduction or termination of any Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender, and each payment by a Participating Lender under this Section 2.2
shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
 






    -40-


     


    

 





(f)            Indemnification.
The Participating Lenders shall, to the extent of their respective Revolver Percentages, indemnify the L/C Issuer (to the extent
not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action,
loss or liability (except such as result from the L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) that the L/C Issuer may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter
of Credit issued by it. The obligations of the Participating Lenders under this Section 2.2(f) and all other parts of this
Section 2.2 shall survive termination of this Agreement and of all Applications, Letters of Credit, and all drafts and other documents
presented in connection with drawings thereunder.


 


(g)           Manner
of Requesting a Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall provide at least five (5) Business Days’ advance written notice to
the Administrative Agent of each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice in each case to be accompanied by an Application
for such Letter of Credit properly completed and executed by the Borrower and, in the case of an extension or amendment or an increase
in the amount of a Letter of Credit, a written request therefor, in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer,
in each case, together with the fees called for by this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the L/C Issuer of the
Administrative Agent’s receipt of each such notice (and the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to assume that the conditions precedent
to any such issuance, extension, amendment or increase have been satisfied unless notified to the contrary by the Administrative Agent
or the Required Lenders) and the L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the issuance of the Letter
of Credit so requested.


 


(h)           Replacement
of the L/C Issuer. The L/C Issuer may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the replaced L/C Issuer and the successor L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement
of the L/C Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account
of the replaced L/C Issuer. From and after the effective date of any such replacement (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall
have all the rights and obligations of the L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter
and (ii) references herein to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous
L/C Issuer, or to such successor and all previous L/C Issuers, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a L/C Issuer
hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a L/C Issuer
under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional
Letters of Credit.


 


Section 2.3.           Applicable
Interest Rates. (a) Base
Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days,
as the case may be, and the actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, or created
by conversion from a Eurodollar Loan, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the
Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable by the Borrower on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise).


 






    -41-


     


    

 





(b)           Eurodollar
Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed
on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced
or continued, or created by conversion from a Base Rate Loan, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum
equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable by the Borrower on each
Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).


 


(c)            Rate
Determinations.  The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations
hereunder, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error.


 


(d)            Investment
Grade Credit Rating Interest Rate Election. At any time after the Borrower receives an Investment Grade Credit Rating, the Borrower
may, so long as no Default then exists and is continuing, irrevocably elect (an “Interest Rate Election”) by written
notice to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by reasonable evidence of the Borrower’s Credit Ratings, that the interest rate
and fee margins set forth in clause (b) of the definition of “Applicable Margin” herein shall at all times thereafter
be applicable to all credit extensions under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall provide the Lenders and the L/C Issuer with
prompt notice of its receipt of any Interest Rate Election. On the day after the date of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of
any Interest Rate Election (the date of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such election is the “Interest Rate Election
Date”), the margins set forth in clause (a) of the definition of “Applicable Margin” herein shall no
longer apply.


 


Section 2.4.           Minimum
Borrowing Amounts; Maximum Eurodollar Loans.
Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans advanced under the Revolving Credit shall be in an amount not less than $100,000. Each Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans advanced, continued or converted under the Revolving Credit shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or such greater
amount which is an integral multiple of $500,000. Without the Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than six (6) Borrowings
of Eurodollar Loans outstanding hereunder at any one time.


 






    -42-


     


    

 


Section 2.5.           Manner
of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates.
(a) Notice to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than 11:00
a.m. (Chicago time): (i) at least three (3) Business Days before the date on which the Borrower requests the Lenders to
advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and (ii) on the date the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans; provided, that with respect to any Borrowing of the Term Loans on the Closing Date, the foregoing deadlines may be shortened
or waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the
type of rate specified in such notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may from
time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirement
for each outstanding Borrowing set forth in Section 2.4, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar
Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar
Loans or convert part or all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business
Day, the Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative
Agent by telephone, telecopy, or other telecommunication device acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable
once given and, if by telephone, shall be promptly confirmed in writing in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent), substantially
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (Notice of Borrowing) or Exhibit C (Notice of Continuation/Conversion), as applicable,
or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notice of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional
Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no later
than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least three (3) Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion.
All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the requested advance, continuation
or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted,
the type of Loans to comprise such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans,
the Interest Period applicable thereto. No Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall be advanced, continued, or created by conversion if any
Default or Event of Default then exists. The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such telephonic, telecopy
or other telecommunication notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative
without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any written confirmation
such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon.


 


(b)           Notice
to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic, telecopy or other telecommunication notice to each Lender
of any notice from the Borrower received pursuant to Section 2.5(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make
Eurodollar Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender by like means of the interest rate applicable
thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such determination.


 


(c)            Borrower’s
Failure to Notify. If the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.5(a) above of the continuation or conversion
of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before the last day of its then current Interest Period within
the period required by Section 2.5(a) and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 2.7, such Borrowing
shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. In the event the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 2.5(a) above
of a Borrowing equal to the amount of a Reimbursement Obligation and has not notified the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon (Chicago
time) on the day such Reimbursement Obligation becomes due that it intends to repay such Reimbursement Obligation through funds not borrowed
under this Agreement, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit on such
day in the amount of the Reimbursement Obligation then due, which Borrowing shall be applied to pay the Reimbursement Obligation then
due.


 






    -43-


     


    

 





(d)           Disbursement
of Loans. Not later than 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of any requested advance of a new Borrowing, subject to Section 7,
each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office of
the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or at such other location in the United States as the Administrative Agent shall
designate in writing to the Borrower). The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrower
at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in Chicago, Illinois (or at such other location in the United States as the
Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Borrower), by depositing or wire transferring such proceeds to the credit of the
Borrower’s Designated Disbursement Account or as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may otherwise agree.


 


(e)            Administrative
Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to (or, in the case
of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, by 1:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make payment
to the Administrative Agent of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend
to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment when due and the Administrative Agent
may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made
by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to
the Administrative Agent the amount made available to the Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect
of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the
date such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related advance
was made by the Administrative Agent to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the Federal
Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender
to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. If such amount is not received from such
Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower will, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds
of the Loan attributable to such Lender with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant
Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 2.10 so that the Borrower will have
no liability under such Section with respect to such payment.


 


Section 2.6.           Maturity
of Loans. (a)


 


(a)            Term
Loans. Each 2025 Term Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and be due and payable by the Borrower
on the 2025 Term Credit Termination Date. Each 2026 Term Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and be due
and payable by the Borrower on the 2026 Term Credit Termination Date.


 


(b)           
Revolving Loans. Each Revolving Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and be due and payable by
the Borrower on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.


 






    -44-


     


    

 





Section 2.7.           Prepayments.
(a) Optional. The
Borrower may prepay at any time or from time to time in whole or in part (but, if in part, then: (i) if such Borrowing is of Base
Rate Loans, in an amount not less than $100,000, (ii) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, in an amount not less than $500,000,
and (iii) in each case, in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.4 remains
outstanding) without premium or penalty (subject to Section 2.10) any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans at any time upon three (3) Business
Days prior notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, notice delivered by
the Borrower to the Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on the date of prepayment (or, in any case,
such shorter period of time then agreed to by the Administrative Agent), such prepayment to be made by the payment of the principal amount
to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any amounts due
the Lenders under Section 2.10.


 


(b)           Mandatory.
(i) The Borrower shall, on each date the Revolving Credit Commitments are reduced pursuant to Section 2.11, prepay the Revolving
Loans and, if necessary, Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations by the amount, if any, necessary to reduce the sum of the aggregate
principal amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations then outstanding to the amount to which the Revolving Credit Commitments
have been so reduced.


 


(ii)            Unless
the Borrower otherwise directs, prepayments of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be applied first to Borrowings of Base
Rate Loans until payment in full thereof with any balance applied to Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans in the order in which their Interest
Periods expire. Each prepayment of Loans under this Section 2.7(b) shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to
be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans, accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment together with any amounts due
the Lenders under Section 2.10. Each Cash Collateralization of L/C Obligations shall be held by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with Section 9.4.


 


(c)            Any
amount of Revolving Loans paid or prepaid before the Revolving Credit Termination Date may, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, be borrowed, repaid and borrowed again. No amount of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans paid or prepaid may be reborrowed.


 


Section 2.8.           Default
Rate. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained herein, while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as
well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations,
and letter of credit fees at a rate per annum equal to:


 


(a)            for
any Base Rate Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;


 


(b)            for
any Eurodollar Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time of such default until the end of
the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin
for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;


 






    -45-


     


    

 





(c)            for
any Reimbursement Obligation, the sum of 2.0% plus the amounts due under Section 2.2 with respect to such Reimbursement Obligation;
and


 


(d)            for
any Letter of Credit, the sum of 2.0% plus the letter of credit fee due under Section 3.1 with respect to such Letter of
Credit; and


 


(e)            for
any other amount owing hereunder not covered by clauses (a) through (d) above, the sum of 2% plus the Applicable Margin
for Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect;


 


provided,
however, that in the absence of acceleration, any adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be made at the election of the
Administrative Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrower. While any
Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or with the
consent of the Required Lenders.


 


Section 2.9.           Evidence
of Indebtedness. (a) Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such
Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid
to such Lender from time to time hereunder.


 


(b)           The
Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and the Interest
Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the
Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower
and each Lender’s share thereof.


 


(c)           The
entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence
of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent
or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the
Obligations in accordance with their terms.


 


(d)           Any
Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note or notes in the forms of Exhibit D-1 (in the case of its Revolving
Loans and referred to herein as a “Revolving Note”), Exhibit D     -2
(in the case of its Term Loans and referred to herein as a “Term Note”), or Exhibit D-3 (in the case of its Incremental
Term Loans and referred to herein as a “Incremental Term Note”) as applicable (Revolving Notes, Term Notes and Incremental
Term Notes being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Notes” and individually as a “Note”).
In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns
in the amount of the relevant Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan, or Revolving Loan, as applicable. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced
by such Note or Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.10) be represented
by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 12.10, except to the extent
that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced
as described in subsections (a) and (b) above.

Section 2.10.         Funding
Indemnity. If any Lender shall incur any loss, cost or expense (including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred
by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan
or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or amounts paid or prepaid to such Lender) as a result of:


 


(a)            any
payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan on a date other than the last day of its Interest Period,


 


(b)            any
failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 7 or otherwise) by the Borrower to borrow or continue a Eurodollar
Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan, on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 2.5(a),


 


(c)            any
failure by the Borrower to make any payment of principal on any Eurodollar Loan when due (whether by acceleration or otherwise), or


 


(d)            any
acceleration of the maturity of a Eurodollar Loan as a result of the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder,


 


then,
upon the demand of such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss, cost or
expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent,
a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail (including an explanation of the basis for
and the computation of such loss, cost or expense) and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be deemed prime facie correct.


 


Section 2.11.         Revolving
Facility Commitment Terminations. (a) Optional
Revolving Credit Terminations. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon five (5) Business Days

the Revolving Credit Commitments without premium or penalty and in whole or in part, any partial termination to be (i) in an amount
not less than $1,000,000 and (ii) allocated ratably among the Lenders in proportion to their respective Revolver Percentages, provided
that the Revolving Credit Commitments may not be reduced to an amount less than the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving
Loans and L/C Obligations then outstanding. Any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments below the L/C Sublimit then
in effect shall reduce the L/C Sublimit by a like amount. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of any
such termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.


 


(b)           Any
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section may not be reinstated.

(c) any Lender is then a Defaulting Lender or such Lender is a Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Person who has been deemed insolvent
or becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or a receiver or conservator has been appointed for any such Person, or
(d) a Lender fails to consent to an amendment or waiver requested under Section 12.11 at a time when the Required Lenders have
approved such amendment or waiver (any such Lender referred to in clause (a), (b), (c), or (d) above being hereinafter referred
to as an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may, in addition to any other rights the Borrower may have hereunder or under
applicable law, require, at its expense, any such Affected Lender to assign, at par, without recourse, all of its interest, rights, and
obligations hereunder (including all of its Commitments and the Loans and participation interests in Letters of Credit and other amounts
at any time owing to it hereunder and the other Loan Documents) to an Eligible Assignee specified by the Borrower, provided that
(i) such assignment shall not conflict with or violate any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental
Authority, (ii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Affected Lender all monies (together with amounts due such Affected Lender under
Section 2.10 as if the Loans owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned) other than such principal owing to it hereunder, and
(iii) the assignment is entered into in accordance with, and subject to the consents required by, Section 12.10 (provided any
assignment fees and reimbursable expenses due thereunder shall be paid by the Borrower).

(a)            Incremental
Facilities. The Borrower may request, from time to time, on any Business Day prior to the date that is sixty (60) days prior to the
Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date by written notice to the Administrative Agent in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G
or in such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent (a “Commitment Amount Increase Request”) at least five
(5) Business Days prior to the desired effective date of such increase (the “Commitment Amount Increase”) (i) an
increase to the then existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such increase, the “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments”)
and/or (ii) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (any such increase, the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”),
by an amount not in excess of $500,000,000 in the aggregate so that the aggregate Commitments are not in excess of $1,000,000,000 and
not less than $5,000,000 individually. Each such Commitment Amount Increase Request shall identify (x) the Business Day (each an
“Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental
Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, and (y) the identity of each Lender, or other Person that is an Eligible
Assignee (each, an “Incremental Revolving Loan Lender” or an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”, as
applicable), to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments,
as applicable, be allocated and the amount of such allocations; provided that Administrative Agent may elect or decline to arrange
such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments in its sole discretion, and any Lender approached
to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline,
in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment or an Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Any Incremental
Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated a separate series identified by the year of maturity of such Incremental
Term Loans (or month and year if there are multiple Incremental Term Loans maturing in the same year) (each, a “Series”)
of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b)            Conditions
to Incremental Loans. Such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall become effective as

date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (where not already qualified by materiality or Material Adverse
Effect, otherwise in all respects) as of such date). The effective date of the Commitment Amount Increase shall be as set forth in the
related Commitment Amount Increase Request. Upon the effectiveness thereof, the Increasing Lenders shall advance Loans in an amount sufficient
such that after giving effect to its advance each Lender shall have outstanding its Percentage of Loans. It shall be a condition to such
effectiveness that if any Eurodollar Loans are outstanding on the date of such effectiveness, such Eurodollar Loans shall be deemed to
be prepaid on such date and the Borrower shall pay any amounts owing to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof. The Borrower
agrees to pay any reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent relating to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or Incremental
Term Loan Commitments, as applicable.


 


(c)            Incremental
Revolving Loans. On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction
of the terms and conditions expressed in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), (i) each of the Lenders shall assign to each of
the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders shall purchase from each of the Lenders, at
the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), Revolving Loans and interests in Letters of Credit outstanding on such
Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, the Revolving Loans
and interests in Letters of Credit will be held by the Lenders according to their then-existing Revolver Percentages after giving effect
to the addition of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments to the Revolving Loan Commitments, (ii) the share of each respective
Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment held by each respective Incremental Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving
Loan Commitment of such Lender and each Loan made thereunder (an “Incremental Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for
all purposes, a Revolving Loan and all references to the Loan Documents to Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Loans shall be deemed
to include the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Incremental Revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section and (iii) each
Incremental Revolving Loan Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment shall become a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment with respect
to its respective share of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and all matters relating thereto.

(d)            Incremental
Term Loans. On any Increased Amount Date on which any Incremental Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject
to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions expressed in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), (i) each Incremental Term Loan
Lender of any Series shall make a Loan to the Borrower (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its
Percentage of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each Incremental Term Loan Lender of any Series shall
become a Lender hereunder with respect to its Incremental Term Loan.


 


(e)            Incremental

notice to any Lender of Revolving Loans, the new Revolver Percentage for such Lender, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated
by clause (c) of this section. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to increase its
Commitment and no Lender’s Commitment shall be increased without its consent thereto, and each Lender may at its option, unconditionally
and without cause, decline to increase its Commitment.


 


(f)            Terms
and Provisions of Incremental Loans. The terms and provisions of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term Loan Commitments
of any Series shall be identical to the Term Loans and the terms and provisions of the Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical
to the Revolving Loans; provided that the rate of interest applicable to the Incremental Term Loans and the Incremental Revolving
Loans shall be agreed between the Borrower and the Incremental Revolving Loan Lenders or Incremental Term Loan Lenders as applicable.
Each Commitment Amount Increase may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and any other
Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent to effect the provision of this Section 2.13.


 


(g)            Equal
and Ratable Benefit. The Incremental Revolving Loans, Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, Incremental Term Loans and
Incremental Term Loan Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall constitute Loans under, and shall be entitled to
all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally

(i)            Waivers
and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this

    -50-


     


    

 


(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 Section 9 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative
Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.14 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 the L/C Issuer hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize
the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.15; fourth, as
the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default 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 determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth,
if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, 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) Cash Collateralize
the L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued
under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.15; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the L/C
Issuer as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the L/C Issuer 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 exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by the Borrower 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 L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully
funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions
set forth in Section 7.1 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations
owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed
to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations are held by the Lenders
pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments under the Revolving Credit without giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv) below.
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 post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.14(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by
such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.


 


(iii)            Certain
Fees.


 


(A)            Each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a facility fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent
allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans funded by it, and (2) its Revolver Percentage
of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.15.


 






    -51-


     


    

 


(B)            Each
Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only
to the extent allocable to its Revolver Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral
pursuant to Section 2.15.


 


(C)            With
respect to any facility fee or L/C Participation Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above,
the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender
with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender
pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the L/C Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender
to the extent allocable to the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the
remaining amount of any such fee.


 


(iv)            Reallocation
of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations
shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolver Percentages (calculated without regard
to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate
Revolving Credit exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject
to Section 12.25, 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.


 


(v)            Cash
Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall,
without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure
in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.15.


 


(b)            Defaulting
Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer 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 Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent
applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other 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 the Revolving Credit Commitments under the Revolving Credit (without giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv)),
whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect
to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower 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.


 






    -52-


     


    

 


(c)            New
Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the L/C Issuer shall not be required to issue, extend, renew or increase
any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.


 


Section 2.15.     Cash
Collateral for Fronting Exposure. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within
one (1) Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined
after giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less
than the Minimum Collateral Amount.


 


(a)            Grant
of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied
pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or
claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral
is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the
Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash
Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).


 


(b)            Application.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.15 or Section 2.14
in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations
in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation)
for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.


 


(c)            Termination
of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall
no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(c) following (i) the elimination of the
applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination
by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.14,
the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting
Exposure or other obligation.

Section 2.16     Extension
of the Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date. Borrower may, by notice to Administrative Agent
(which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) given not more than one hundred twenty (120) days and not less than sixty
(60) days prior to the Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date, request that Lenders extend the Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date
for one additional one-year period. If (w) Borrower timely delivers such notice to Administrative Agent, (x) no Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, (y) all representations and warranties contained in Section 6 are true and correct
in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality or material adverse effect, in which
case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on the date the notice is delivered and on the Stated
Revolving Credit Termination Date except for representations and warranties that relate to a prior date, which shall have been true and
correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality or material adverse effect
in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the applicable date on which they were
made, and (z) the Administrative Agent receives for the benefit of the Lenders (to be allocated pro rata based on each Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitments of the date of the Stated Revolving Credit Terminated Date extension) the Extension Fee, then the Stated
Revolving Credit Termination Date shall be extended to the first anniversary of the Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date. Should the
Stated Revolving Credit Termination Date be extended in accordance with the terms and conditions of the preceding sentence, the terms
and conditions of this Agreement will apply during any such extension period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section shall
supersede any provisions in Sections 12.7 and 12.11 to the contrary.


 


Section 2.17     Sustainability-linked

is December 31, 2024:


 


(a)            The
Borrower may supply the Administrative Agent with a written proposal in respect of the incorporation of margin adjustments and applicable
conditions, with no fewer than two key performance indicators and the corresponding sustainability performance targets that will constitute
the reference for sustainability linked adjustments to the Applicable Margin, defined with the assistance of the Sustainability Agent
in accordance with the most updated version of the Sustainability Linked Loan Principles (SLLP) published by the Loan Syndications and
Trading Association (LSTA) available at the time. The performance on these sustainability key performance indicators vis-à-vis

Proposal”).


 


(b)            The
Administrative Agent shall notify and provide a copy of the Sustainability Proposal to the Lenders, which the Lenders shall consider in
good faith. By no later than the date falling one month after the delivery of the Sustainability Proposal, the Administrative Agent (on
behalf of the Lenders) shall carry out consultations and communicate its response on the Sustainability Proposal to the Borrower.


 


(c)            If
all Lenders agree to the Sustainability Proposal, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement
to implement such Sustainability Proposal without any further action or requirement from any Lender and the Administrative Agent is hereby
authorized to execute any such amendment on behalf of the Lenders.


 






    -54-


     


    

 


(d)            If
no agreement can be reached between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders) within such
time period, no such sustainability-linked margin adjustments shall apply.


 


(e)            The
maximum adjustment to the Applicable Margin on the basis of a Sustainability Proposal shall not exceed 0.01% per annum.


 


(f)            Prior
to the Sustainability Proposal being agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (acting on behalf of the Lenders), the Borrower
shall not include any reference to the Agreement being classified as a sustainability-linked loan in any publicly available information.

in accordance with their Revolver Percentages a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) at the rate per annum equal to the
Applicable Margin (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed) equal to the average daily
aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment, whether or not in use. Such Facility Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on
the last day of each March, June, September, and December in each year (commencing on the first such date occurring after the Closing
Date) and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, unless the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated in whole on an earlier date,
in which event the Facility Fee for the period to the date of such termination in whole shall be paid on the date of such termination.

in the face amount of) such Letter of Credit. Quarterly in arrears, on the last day of each March, June, September, and December, commencing
on the first such date occurring after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Lenders in accordance with their Revolver Percentages, a letter of credit fee (the “L/C Participation Fee”) at
a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed)
in effect during each day of such quarter applied to the daily average face amount of Letters of Credit outstanding during such quarter.
In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the L/C Issuer for its own account the L/C Issuer’s standard issuance, drawing, negotiation,
amendment, assignment, cancellation, transfer and other administrative fees for each Letter of Credit as established by the L/C Issuer
from time to time.

Section 4.1.     Place
and Application of Payments.
All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and of all other Obligations payable by the
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent by no later than
12:00 Noon (Chicago time) on the due date thereof at the office of the Administrative Agent in Chicago, Illinois (or such other
location in the United States as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing to the Borrower) for the benefit of the Lender(s) or
the L/C Issuer entitled thereto. Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent
on the next Business Day. All such payments shall be made in U.S. Dollars, in immediately available funds at the place of payment,
in each case without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating
to the payment of principal or interest on Loans and on Reimbursement Obligations in which the Lenders have purchased Participating Interests
ratably to the Lenders and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to
be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the Administrative Agent causes amounts to be distributed to the Lenders
in reliance upon the assumption that the Borrower will make a scheduled payment and such scheduled payment is not so made, each Lender
shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of
each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was distributed to such Lender and ending on (but excluding) the date such
Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the distribution was made
to the date two (2) Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from
the date two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender,
the Base Rate in effect for each such day. With respect to any payment that Administrative Agent makes to any Lender, L/C Issuer or other
 “Secured Party as to which Administrative Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that any of the following applies
(such payment referred to as the “Rescindable Amount”): (1) the Borrower has not in fact made the corresponding
payment to the Administrative Agent; (2) the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount(s) received by
it from the Borrower either individually or in the aggregate (whether or not then owed); or (3) the Administrative Agent has for
any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Secured Parties severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent
forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Secured Party, in immediately available funds with interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent,
at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

under the Loan Documents, and in any event including all costs and expenses of a character which the Borrower has agreed to pay the Administrative
Agent under Section 12.13 (such funds to be retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been
reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be remitted to the Lenders to reimburse them
for payments theretofore made to the Administrative Agent);


 


(b)            second,
to the payment of any outstanding interest and fees due under the Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate
unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;


 


(c)            third,

holding an amount of cash equal to the then outstanding amount of all such L/C Obligations), and Hedging Liability, the aggregate
amount paid to, or held as collateral security for, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer and, in the case of Hedging Liability, their Affiliates
to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof;


 


(d)            fourth,
to the payment of all other unpaid Obligations and all other indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
evidenced by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Funds Transfer and Deposit Account Liability) to be allocated pro rata
in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; and


 


(e)            finally,
to the Borrower or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto.


 


Section 4.2.     Account
Debit. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any of the
Borrower’s deposit accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for the amounts from time to time
necessary to pay any then due Obligations; provided that the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall

a corporation under the laws of the State of Maryland, has full and adequate power to own its Property and conduct its business as now
conducted, and is duly licensed or qualified and in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by
it or the nature of the Property owned or leased by it requires such licensing or qualifying.

Each Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized,
has full and adequate power to own its Property and conduct its business as now conducted, and is duly licensed or qualified and in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business conducted by it or the nature of the Property owned or leased by it
requires such licensing or qualifying. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests of each Subsidiary are
validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and nonassessable and all such shares and other equity interests owned by the Borrower or
another Subsidiary are owned, beneficially and of record, by the Borrower or such Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens. Neither the

against it in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or
similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (regardless of whether the application of such
principles is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not, nor does the performance
or observance by the Borrower or any Unencumbered Asset Subsidiary of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) contravene
or constitute a default under any provision of law or any judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Borrower or any Unencumbered
Asset Subsidiary or any provision of the organizational documents (e.g., charter, certificate or articles of incorporation and
by-laws, certificate or articles of association and operating agreement, partnership agreement, or other similar organizational documents)

consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at said dates and the consolidated results of their operations

on the financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 8.5.


 


Section 6.6.     No
Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2020, there has been no event which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.


 


Section 6.7.     Full
Disclosure. The statements and information furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the commitments by the Lenders to provide all or
part of the financing contemplated hereby do not contain any untrue statements of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary to
make the material statements contained herein or therein not misleading, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledging that as
to any projections furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Borrower only represents that the same were prepared in
good faith on the basis of information and estimates the Borrower believed to be reasonable at the time. As of the Closing Date, the information

and approvals of all Governmental Authorities, if any, necessary to conduct their businesses, in each case where the failure to obtain

determined, could reasonably be expected to result in revocation or denial of any material license, permit or approval is pending or,
to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened.


 


Section 6.10.    Good
Title. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have good and defensible title (or valid leasehold interests)

and Other Controversies. There is no litigation or governmental or arbitration proceeding or

have been paid, except such Taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings which prevent enforcement
of the matter under contest and as to which adequate reserves established in accordance with GAAP have been provided or where the failure
to so file or pay would not cause a Material Adverse Effect on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Borrower does not
know of any proposed additional Tax assessment against it or its Subsidiaries for which adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP have
not been made on their accounts. Adequate provisions in accordance with GAAP for Taxes on the books of the Borrower and each Subsidiary
have been made for all open years, and for its current fiscal period.

(f)            any
event occurs or condition exists (other than those described in subsections (a) through (e) above) which is specified

default shall continue for a period of time sufficient to permit the acceleration of the maturity of any such Indebtedness for Borrowed
Money (whether or not such maturity is in fact accelerated); provided that if such default results solely from a payment not paid
when due, there shall be a five (5) day cure period so long as the maturity date with respect to the subject Indebtedness for Borrowed
Money has not been accelerated;

Defaults. When any Event of Default other than those described in subsection (k) or (l) of Section 9.1 has occurred
and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, by written notice to the Borrower: (a) if so directed by the Required Lenders,
terminate the remaining Revolving Credit Commitments and all other obligations of the Lenders hereunder on the date stated in such notice
(which may be the date thereof); (b) if so directed by the Required Lenders declare the principal of and the accrued interest on
all outstanding Loans to be forthwith due and payable and thereupon all outstanding Loans, including both principal and interest thereon,
shall be and become immediately due and payable together with all other amounts payable under the Loan Documents without further demand,
presentment, protest or notice of any kind; and (c) if so directed by the Required Lenders, demand that the Borrower deliver to
the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount equal to 103% of the aggregate amount of each Letter of Credit then outstanding,
and the Borrower agrees to immediately provide such Cash Collateral and acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders would not have an adequate
remedy at law for failure by the Borrower to honor any such demand and that the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,
shall have the right to require the Borrower to specifically perform such undertaking whether or not any drawings or other demands for
payment have been made under any Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent, after giving notice to the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.1(d) or
this Section 9.2, shall also promptly send a copy of such notice to the other Lenders, but the failure to do so shall not impair
or annul the effect of such notice.

any of the Letters of Credit. In addition, the Administrative Agent may exercise on behalf of itself, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer
all rights and remedies available to it, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under the Loan Documents or under applicable law or in equity
when any such Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b)           At
any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent
or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure
with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided
by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.


 


                (i)            Grant
of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to
the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied
pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right
or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer as herein provided (other than Permitted Liens), or that
the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower shall, promptly upon demand by the
Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such
deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).


 


(ii)           Application.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 9.3 or Section 2.15
in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations
in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation)
for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.


 


(iii)          Termination
of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure
shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.3(b) following (A) the elimination
of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (B) the
determination by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject
to Section 2.15 the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support
future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was
provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

        Section 9.4.                   Collateral
for Undrawn Letters of Credit. (a) If the provision of any Cash Collateral in respect of
any or all outstanding Letters of Credit is required under Section 2.7(b), Section 2.14, Section 2.15, Section 9.2
or Section 9.3 above, the Borrower shall forthwith provide such Cash Collateral, to be held by the Administrative Agent as provided
in subsection (b) below.


 


(b)           All
Cash Collateral delivered pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be held by the Administrative Agent in one or more separate
collateral accounts (each such account, and the credit balances, properties, and any investments from time to time held therein, and
any substitutions for such account, any certificate of deposit or other instrument evidencing any of the foregoing and all proceeds of
and earnings on any of the foregoing being collectively called the “Collateral Account”) as security for, and for
application by the Administrative Agent (to the extent available) to, the reimbursement of any payment under any Letter of Credit then
or thereafter made by the L/C Issuer, and to the payment of the unpaid balance of all other Obligations (and to all Hedging Liability
and Funds Transfer and Deposit Account Liability). The Collateral Account shall be held in the name of and subject to the exclusive dominion
and control of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer. If and when requested
by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall invest funds held in the Collateral Account from time to time in direct obligations of,
or obligations the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed by, the United States of America with a remaining
maturity of one year or less, provided that the Administrative Agent is irrevocably authorized to sell investments held in the
Collateral Account when and as required to make payments out of the Collateral Account for application to amounts due and owing from
the Borrower to the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders; provided, however, that, subject to the terms of Sections
2.14 and 2.15, (i) if the Borrower shall have made payment of all obligations referred to in subsection (a) above required
under Section 2.7(b), if any, at the request of the Borrower the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrower amounts held
in the Collateral Account so long as at the time of the release and after giving effect thereto no Default or Event of Default exists,
and (ii) if the Borrower shall have made payment of all obligations referred to in subsection (a) above required under
Section 9.2 or 9.3, so long as no Letters of Credit, Commitments, Loans or other Obligations, Hedging Liability, or Funds Transfer
and Deposit Account Liability remain outstanding, at the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall release to the Borrower
any remaining amounts held in the Collateral Account.


 


         Section 9.5.                  Notice
of Default. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower under Section 9.1(d) promptly
upon being requested to do so by any Lender and shall thereupon notify all the Lenders thereof.


 


Section 10.          Change
in Circumstances.


 


Section 10.1.                Change
of Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, if
at any time any Change in Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans or to perform its
obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and such Lender’s obligations
to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or
maintain Eurodollar Loans. The Borrower shall prepay on demand the outstanding principal amount of any such affected Eurodollar Loans,
together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement; provided,
however, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may then elect to borrow the principal amount
of the affected Eurodollar Loans from such Lender by means of Base Rate Loans from such Lender, which Base Rate Loans shall not be made
ratably by the Lenders but only from such affected Lender.

Section 10.2.                Unavailability
of Deposits or Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR. Subject to Section 10.18,
if on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans:


 


(a)            the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower that (i) deposits in U.S. Dollars
(in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to it in the interbank eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or (ii) reasonable
means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR (including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Index Rate is not available
or published on a current basis), or


 


(b)           the
Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and
fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding
of Eurodollar Loans become impracticable,


 


then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith
give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances
giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended (and any existing
Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans upon the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor).


 


Section 10.3.                 Increased
Cost and Reduced Return. (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:


 


(i)             impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits
with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted
LIBOR) or the L/C Issuer;


 


(ii)            subject
any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of
the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments,
or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or


 


(iii)           impose
on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this
Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;


 






    -80-


     


    

 


and the result of any of the foregoing shall be
to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining
its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, the L/C Issuer or such other Recipient of participating
in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit),
or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the L/C Issuer or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender,
the L/C Issuer or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the L/C Issuer
or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.


 


(b)           Capital
Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any lending
office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements,
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital
of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitments
of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by
the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company
could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and
the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time,
within 15 days after demand by such Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower will pay to such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such
Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.


 


(c)            Certificates
for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender
or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and
delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case
may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.


 


(d)           Delay
in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall
not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the
Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred
or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s
intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive,
then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 10.4.     Lending
Offices. Each Lender may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office
or Affiliate specified on the appropriate signature page hereof (each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan
available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a written
notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. To the extent reasonably possible, a Lender shall designate an alternative branch
or funding office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Section 10.3
or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 10.2, so long as such designation is not otherwise disadvantageous
to the Lender.


 


Section 10.5.     Discretion
of Lender as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each
Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood,
however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be made as if each
Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having
a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period.


 


Section 10.6.     Effect
of a Benchmark Transition Event .


 


(a)            Replacing
LIBOR.


 


(i)          On
March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of USD LIBOR’s administrator
(“IBA”), announced in a public statement the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-month,
3-month, 6-month and 12-month LIBOR Index Rate tenor settings. On the earlier of (i) the date that all Available Tenors of LIBOR
have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or
publication of information to be no longer representative and (ii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark
is LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any
setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other
party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable
on a monthly basis.


 


(ii)            Subject
to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Event has occurred in respect to the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable
Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such
Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (a)(ii) shall not be effective until 30 days after the Administrative
Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may select for
effectiveness in the Term SOFR Notice). For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR
Notice after a Term SOFR Event and may elect or not elect to do so in its sole discretion.


 






    -82- 


     


    

 


(b)            Replacing
Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark
for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th)
Business Day after the date written notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further
action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received,
by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. At any time that
the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has
been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information
to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness
will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted
or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative
Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such
request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the
component of the Base Rate based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.


 


(c)            Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative
Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective
without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.


 


(d)            Notice
Standards for Decisions and Determination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the
implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination,
decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this
Section 10.6, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an
event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 10.6.


 


(e)            Unavailability
of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current
Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBOR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is
unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may
reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.

	Section 11.	The Administrative Agent.



 


Section 11.1.     Appointment
and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of Montreal
to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent
to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof,
together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 11 are solely for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary
of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents
(or any other similar term) 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended
to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.


 


Section 11.2.     Rights
as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights
and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and
the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,
include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage
in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.


 


Section 11.3.     Action
by Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not
have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall
be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties:


 


(i)            shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;


 






    -84- 


     


    

 


(ii)            shall
not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly
contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents),
provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel,
may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance
of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification
or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be
fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it first receives any further assurances
of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it
requires against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action; and


 


(iii)            shall
not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not
be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained
by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.


 


(b)            Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent
under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (i) with
the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as
the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.2, 9.3,
9.4 and 12.11), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
by final and nonappealable judgment. Any such action taken or failure to act pursuant to the foregoing shall be binding on all Lenders.
The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given
to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower, a Lender, or the L/C Issuer.


 


(c)            Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be responsible for or have any duty or obligation to any Lender or the L/C
Issuer or participant or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements
or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness
or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction
of any condition set forth in Section 7.1 or 7.2 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to
be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.4.     Reliance
by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be
fully protected in relying and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, communication, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative
Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and
shall be fully protected in relying and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition
hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled
to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender
or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior
to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may
be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or
not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 


Section 11.5.     Delegation
of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights
and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through
their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related
Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication
of the Facilities as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence
or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment
that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.


 


Section 11.6.     Resignation
of Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its
resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall
have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States of
America, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States of America. If no such successor shall have been so appointed
by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent
gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective
Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer,
appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such
resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.


 


(b)            If
the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required
Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative
Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders
and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal
Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective
Date.


 






    -86- 


     


    

 


(c)            With
effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity
payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by,
to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any,
as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment
as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties
of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations
hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as
those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 11 and Section 12.13
shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related
Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting
as Administrative Agent.


 


Section 11.7.     Non-Reliance
on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it
has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each
Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue
to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement
or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.


 






    -87- 


     


    

 


Section 11.8.     L/C
Issuer. The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit
issued by it and the documents associated therewith. The L/C Issuer shall each have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided
to the Administrative Agent in this Section 11 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection
with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the Applications pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully
as if the term “Administrative Agent”, as used in this Section 11, included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts
or omissions and (ii) as additionally provided in this Agreement with respect to the L/C Issuer. Any resignation by the Person then
acting as Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.6 shall also constitute its resignation or the resignation of its Affiliate
as the L/C Issuer except as it may otherwise agree. If such Person then acting as the L/C Issuer so resigns, it shall retain all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of
its resignation as the L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans
or fund risk participations in Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 2.2. Upon the appointment by the Borrower of a successor
L/C Issuer hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (i) such successor shall succeed
to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer (other than any rights to indemnity
payments or other amounts that remain owing to the retiring L/C Issuer), and (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from
all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents other than with respect to its outstanding Letters of Credit,
and (iii) upon the request of the resigning L/C Issuer, the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for
the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the resigning L/C
Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the resigning L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.


 


Section 11.9.     Designation
of Additional Agents. The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing right, for purposes
hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication
agents,” “documentation agents,” “sustainability agents,” “book runners,” “lead arrangers,”
 “arrangers,” or other designations for purposes hereto, but such designation shall have no substantive effect, and such Lenders
and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties or responsibilities as a result thereof.


 


Section 11.10.     Authorization
of Administrative Agent to File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the 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 the 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 Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts
due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents including, but not limited to, Sections 2.10,
3.1, 10.3 and 12.13) 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;


 






    -88- 


     


    

 


and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee,
liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer
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 and the L/C Issuer, 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 3.1 and 12.13. 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 or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition
affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of
the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.


 


Section 11.11.     Recovery
of Erroneous Payments. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that
it has made a payment hereunder in error to any Lender, L/C Issuer or other Secured Party, whether or not in respect of a Secured Obligation
due and owing by any Loan Party at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then in any such event, each such Person receiving
a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount received by such
Person in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such
Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds
Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. Each
Lender, each L/C Issuer and each other Secured Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any “discharge for value”
(under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly paid by a third party in respect of a debt owed by another),
 “good consideration”, “change of position” or similar defenses (whether at law or in equity) to its obligation
to return any Rescindable Amount. The Administrative Agent shall inform each Lender, L/C Issuer or other Secured Party that received a
Rescindable Amount promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Person comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.
Each Person’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section shall survive
the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights
or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or L/C Issuer, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.


 


	Section 12.	Miscellaneous.



 


Section 12.1.     Taxes.
(a)  Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes the L/C Issuer and the term
 “applicable law” includes FATCA.


 


(b)            Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without
deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion
of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then
the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted
or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the
sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal
to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.


 






    -89- 


     


    

 


(c)            Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.


 


(d)            Indemnification
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount
of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable
or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest
error.


 


(e)            Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor,
for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already
indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to
do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.10(d) relating
to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable
or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate
as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender
under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to
the Administrative Agent under this subsection (e).


 


(f)            Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.


 






    -90- 


     


    

 


(g)            Status
of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made
under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative
Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or
not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 12.1(g)(ii)(A),
(ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial
position of such Lender.


 


(ii)            Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing,


 


(A)          any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent),
executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


 


(B)          any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following
is applicable:


 


(i)            in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction
of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other
applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding
Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;


 


(ii)            executed
originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;


 


(iii)          in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code,
(x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of
the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or


 






    -91- 


     


    

 


(iv)            to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9,
and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership
and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender
may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect
partner;


 


(C)            any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any
other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and


 


(D)            if
a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were
to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of
the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law
and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable
law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount
to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments
made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.


 


Each Lender agrees that if
any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form
or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.


 






    -92- 


     


    

 





(h)          Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this
Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under
this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified
party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying
party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (h) (plus
any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required
to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (h), in no event
will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (h) the payment
of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if
the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification
payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any indemnified
party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying
party or any other Person.


 


(i)         Survival.
Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or
any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.


 


Section 12.2.      Other
Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand, and indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer harmless from, any Other Taxes payable in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including
interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such assessment is made and whether or not any
credit is then in use or available hereunder.


 


Section 12.3.      No
Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent, the
L/C Issuer, or any Lender, or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations, in the exercise of any power or right under
any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies
hereunder of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, the Lenders, and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are cumulative
to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have.


 


Section 12.4.     Non-Business
Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day,
the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable.
In the case of any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue
to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the next scheduled
date for the payment of interest.


 






    -93- 


     


    

 


Section 12.5.      Survival
of Representations. All representations and warranties made herein or in any other Loan Document
or in certificates given pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as of which they were made as long as any credit is in use or available
hereunder.


 


Section 12.6.      Survival
of Indemnities. All indemnities and other provisions relative to reimbursement to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer of amounts sufficient
to protect the yield of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit, including, but not limited
to, Sections 2.10, 10.3, and 12.13, shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the
Obligations.


 


Section 12.7.      Sharing
of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim
or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in
such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations
greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the
Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations
of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by
the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts
owing them; provided that:


 


(i)            if
any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall
be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and


 


(ii)          the
provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance
with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any
payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in
L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this
Section shall apply).


 


The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees,
to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements
may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were
a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

below) available to the L/C Issuer and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a
substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).


 


(ii)       The

rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform.
In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any
liability to the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation,
direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising
out of the Borrower’s, any Subsidiary’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform.
“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided

to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through
the Platform.


 


Section 12.9.      Counterparts.
   (a) This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the different parties hereto on separate counterpart signature
pages, and all such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract
among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 7.2, 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. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement
by facsimile or in electronic (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 7.2, the L/C Issuer
and 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 the L/C Issuer or a Lender
unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the Closing Date specifying its objection
thereto.

(b)          Electronic
Execution of Assignments.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import
in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of
which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping
system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global
and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronics Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform
Electronic Transactions Act.


 


Section 12.10.      Successors
and Assigns. (a)     Successors
and Assigns Generally.  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 Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights
or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of
this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (iii) by
way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (e) 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 paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties
of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) 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 such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment
shall be subject to the following conditions:


 


(i)           Minimum
Amounts. (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment
and the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in subsection
(b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and participation
interest in L/C Obligations outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect, the
principal outstanding balance of the Loans and participation interest in L/C Obligations of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative
Agent or, if “Effective Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Effective Date specified in such Assignment
and Acceptance) 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 Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);


 






    -97- 


     


    

 


(ii)          Proportionate
Amounts. 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 Loan or the Commitment.


 


(iii)        Required
Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 12.10(b)(i)(B) and, in
addition:


 


(A)         the
consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or
an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto
by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and provided,
further, that the Borrower’s consent shall not be required during the primary syndication of the Facilities;


 


(B)         the
consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect
of the Revolving Credit if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment in respect of such Facility,
an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and


 


(C)        the
consent of the L/C Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases
the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding).


 


(iv)       Assignment
and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance,
together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except no fee shall be required for an assignment by a Lender to an Approved
Fund related to such Lender), and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.


 


(v)         No
Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to (a) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Affiliate of the
Borrower or any Subsidiary or (b) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender
hereunder would constitute a Defaulting Lender or a Subsidiary thereof.


 






    -98- 


     


    

 


(vi)        No
Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.


 


(vii)       Certain
Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment
shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall
make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate
(which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including
funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but
not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay
and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each other
Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and
participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment
of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions
of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until
such compliance occurs.


 


Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by
the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment
and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment
and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and 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 12.7 and 12.13 with respect to facts and
circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly
agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under
this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 paragraph (d) of this Section.


 


(c)      Register.
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Chicago, Illinois
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 Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the
terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the Borrower, 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower
and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)      Participations.
Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to
any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or the 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 Commitments
and/or the Loans 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
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection
with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for
the indemnity under Section 11.8 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).


 


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, modification or waiver described
in Section 12.11 that expressly relate to amendments requiring the unanimous consent of the Lenders in the Revolving Credit. The
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 10.3 and 12.1 (subject to the requirements
and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 12.1(g) (it being understood that the documentation required
under Section 12.1(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired
its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees
to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.12 and 10.4 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section;
and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 10.3 or 12.1, with respect to any participation,
than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation
agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions
of Section 2.12 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits
of Section 12.14 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.7 as though it
were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register
on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s
interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that
no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant
or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under
any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter
of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The
entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining
a Participant Register.

(e)     Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; 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.


 


Section 12.11.      Amendments.
 Subject to Sections 2.17 and 10.2, any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the Borrower, (b) the
Required Lenders, and (c) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer are affected thereby, the Administrative
Agent or the L/C Issuer, as applicable; provided that:


 


(i)           no
amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 12.11 shall (A) increase any Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender without
the consent of such Lender or (B) reduce the amount of or postpone the date for any scheduled payment of any principal of or interest
on any Loan or of any Reimbursement Obligation or of any fee payable hereunder without the consent of the Lender to which such payment
is owing or which has committed to make such Loan or Letter of Credit (or participate therein) hereunder, it being agreed and understood
that any change in any ratio used in the calculation of any interest or fees due hereunder (including any component definition thereof)
shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees hereunder; provided, however, that only the consent of the Required
Lenders shall be necessary to amend the default rate provided in Section 2.8 or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest
or fees at the default rate as set forth therein; and


 


(ii)        no
amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 12.11 shall, unless signed by each Lender, extend the Revolving Credit Termination Date,
change the definition of Required Lenders, amend the waterfall provisions of Section 4.1, change the provisions of this Section 12.11
or affect the number of Lenders required to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document.


 






    -101- 


     


    

 


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,
(1) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment,
waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the
applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not
be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of
all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require
the consent of such Defaulting Lender, (2) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an obvious error
or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and
the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision, (3) guarantees and related documents executed by the Borrower or any guarantor
in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented
or waived without the consent of any Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order to (x) comply with local
law or advice of local counsel, (y) cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or (z) cause such guarantee or other document
to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (4) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may, without
the input or consent of any other Lender, effect amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in the
reasonable opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to effect the provisions of Section 2.13.


 


Section 12.12.      Headings.

Section 12.13.      Costs
and Expenses; Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses of
the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication, and administration of the Loan Documents, including,
without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation and
execution of the Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver or consent related thereto, whether or not the transactions contemplated herein
are consummated. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and each Lender, and any other holder of any
Obligations outstanding hereunder, all costs and expenses reasonably incurred or paid by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, such
Lender, or any such holder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs, in connection with any Default
or Event of Default hereunder or in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses
incurred in connection with any proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code involving the Borrower as a debtor thereunder). The
Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender, and any security trustee therefor, and their
respective directors, officers, employees, agents, financial advisors, and consultants (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”)
against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees
and disbursements of counsel for any such Indemnitee and all reasonable expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not
the Indemnitee is a party thereto, or any settlement arrangement 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, the performance
by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer, and their Related Parties, the administration
and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred in connection with any
proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code involving the Borrower as a debtor thereunder), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit
or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter
of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any
Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability, including with respect to the actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials
on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, related in any way to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, and regardless
of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (including, without limitation, any settlement arrangement arising from or relating to the
foregoing); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. The Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the
L/C Issuer, or a Lender at any time, shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or such Lender for any legal or other expenses
(including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for any such Indemnitee) incurred in connection with
investigating or defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing) except if the same
is directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitee. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders against, and agrees that it will hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from, any claim, demand,
or liability for any such broker’s or finder’s fees alleged to have been incurred in connection herewith and any expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising in connection with any such claim, demand, or liability. To the extent permitted
by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and 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 the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection above
shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it
through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after demand therefor. The obligations
of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 12.14.     Set-off.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer, and each of their respective Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in
whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
to such Lender or the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, the L/C Issuer or Affiliate
shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent
or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch, office or Affiliate
holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any
such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application
in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.14 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its
other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting
Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting
Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under
this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or
their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly
after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff
and application.


 


Section 12.15.     Entire
Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties thereto with
respect to the subject matter thereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby.


 


Section 12.16.     Governing
Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as otherwise specified therein), and
the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be construed and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.


 


Section 12.17.     Severability
of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof
or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All rights, remedies and powers provided in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory
provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory
provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents invalid or unenforceable.

Section 12.18.      Excess
Interest. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan
Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount
of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the collection, of all or any portion
of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”).
If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event
(a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any Excess
Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of
the Administrative Agent, be (i) applied as a credit against the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued
and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law), (ii) refunded to the Borrower, or (iii) any
combination of the foregoing, (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject
to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in
the relevant interest rate, and (e) the Borrower shall not have any action against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any
damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of
time interest on any of the Borrower’s Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this
Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on the Borrower’s
Obligations shall remain at the Maximum Rate until the Lenders have received the amount of interest which such Lenders would have received
during such period on the Borrower’s Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.


 


Section 12.19.      Construction.
The parties acknowledge and agree, to the extent permitted by law, that the Loan Documents shall not be construed more favorably in favor
of any party hereto based upon which party drafted the same, it being acknowledged that all parties hereto contributed substantially to
the negotiation of the Loan Documents. The provisions of this Agreement relating to Subsidiaries shall only apply during such times as
the Borrower has one or more Subsidiaries.


 


Section 12.20.      Lender’s
and L/C Issuer’s Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer
hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders or the L/C Issuer pursuant
hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders and the L/C Issuer a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.


 






    -105- 


     


    

 


Section 12.21.     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 Borrower acknowledges
and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ and Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) (i) no fiduciary, advisory
or agency relationship between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or any Lender is intended
to be or has been created in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, or any Lender has advised or is advising the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries on other matters,
(ii) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders
are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders, on the other hand, (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have consulted its own legal,
accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed appropriate and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are
capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the
other Loan Documents; and (b) (i) the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely
as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an
advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates, or any other Person; (ii) none of the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents;
and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own
accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower,
any Subsidiary and their Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders has any obligation to disclose
any of such interests to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower, on behalf
of itself and its Subsidiaries, hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer,
and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction
contemplated hereby.


 


Section 12.22.      Submission
to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. The Borrower hereby submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction
of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court sitting in New York,
New York for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby. The Borrower irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now
or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought
in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the L/C Issuer, and the Lenders hereby irrevocably waive any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or
relating to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby.


 


Section 12.23.     USA
Patriot Act. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot
Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower
that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies the Borrower, which
information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the L/C Issuer to identify
the Borrower in accordance with the Act.


 






    -106- 


     


    

 


Section 12.24.     Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information
(as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees
and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors to the extent any such Person has a need to know such Information
(it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will first 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 (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 suit, 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 (A) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement or (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction
relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and its obligations, (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, (h) to the
extent such Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (B) becomes
available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower
or any Subsidiary or any of their directors, officers, employees or agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, (i) to
rating agencies if requested or required by such agencies in connection with a rating relating to the Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments
hereunder, or (j) to entities which compile and publish information about the syndicated loan market, provided that only basic
information about the pricing and structure of the transaction evidenced hereby may be disclosed pursuant to this subsection (j).
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries
or from any other Person on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a non-confidential
basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or from any other Person on behalf of the Borrower or any of the
Subsidiaries. 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.


 


Section 12.25.      Acknowledgement
and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto (including any
party becoming a party hereto by virtue of an Assignment and Assumption) acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution
arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of
the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


 


(a)         the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which
may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and


 


(b)          the
effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


 


(i)           a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;


 






    -107- 


     


    

 


(ii)          a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments
of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
or


 


(iii)         the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution
Authority.


 


Section 12.26.         Amendment
and Restatement; No Novation. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date hereof, and
supersede all provisions of the Prior Credit Agreement as of such date, upon the execution of this Agreement by each of the parties hereto
and fulfillment of the conditions precedent contained in Section 7.2. This Agreement shall constitute for all purposes an amendment
and restatement of the Prior Credit Agreement and not a new agreement and all obligations outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement
shall continue to be outstanding hereunder and shall not constitute a novation of the indebtedness or other obligations outstanding under
the Prior Credit Agreement.


 


Section 12.27.        Acknowledgement
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through
a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit
Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect
to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution
Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that
the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United
States or any other state of the United States):


 


(a)         In
the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding
under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest
and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such
QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special
Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed
by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party
becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply
to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater
extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents
were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood
and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered
Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Section 12.28.        Equalization
of Loans and Commitments. Upon the Closing Date, all loans outstanding under the Prior Credit
Agreement shall remain outstanding as the initial Borrowing of Revolving Loans under this Agreement and, in connection therewith, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have prepaid all outstanding Eurodollar Loans on the Closing Date; provided, that each Lender who is currently
a party to the Prior Credit Agreement hereby agrees to forego and waive any compensation due such Lender under Section 2.10 of the
Prior Credit Agreement as a result thereof.  On the Closing Date, the Lenders each agree to make such purchases and sales of interests
in the outstanding Revolving Loans between themselves so that each Lender is then holding its relevant Revolver Percentage of outstanding
Revolving Loans.  Such purchases and sales shall be arranged through the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agrees to execute
such further instruments and documents, if any, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.
