of “Borrowing Base” will not be reduced without the consent of the Borrowers.

 Section 1.08. Pro Forma Calculations. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the
Payment Conditions and the Distribution Conditions (and, in each case, any component thereof) shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section. Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any applicable transaction, the pro forma
calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of Holdings. 
 (b) In the event that any of the Borrowers or any of its
respective Subsidiaries incurs, assumes, guarantees, redeems, refinances, repays, retires or extinguishes any Indebtedness subsequent to the end of the Test Period for which the Secured Leverage Ratio or the Total Leverage Ratio is being calculated
but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Secured Leverage Ratio or the Total Leverage Ratio, as applicable, shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence,
assumption, guarantee, redemption, refinancing, repayment, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period. 

(c) For purposes of calculating the Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, any Investment or
other acquisition (including any Permitted Acquisition), Disposition, Restricted Payment or Restricted Subordinated Debt Payment (each, a “Specified Transaction”) that has been made by any of the Borrowers or any of its respective
Subsidiaries during the applicable Test Period or subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such
Specified Transactions (and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any such Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Subsidiary or was
merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section, then the Secured
Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Specified Transaction occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period. 

(d) In the event that any of the Borrowers or any of its respective Subsidiaries incurs, assumes, guarantees, redeems, refinances, repays,
retires or extinguishes any Indebtedness included in the definition of Fixed Charges subsequent to the commencement of the Test Period but prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is
made, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, assumption, guarantee, redemption, refinancing, repayment, retirement or extinguishment of Indebtedness as if the same had occurred on the
first day of the applicable Test Period. 
 (e) Any Indebtedness incurred or assumed by any of the Borrowers or any of their respective
Subsidiaries in connection therewith shall be deemed to have occurred as of the first day of the applicable Test Period with respect to any test or covenant for which the relevant determination is being made; provided that, if any Indebtedness bears
a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is made had been
the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any hedging obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible
Officer of Holdings to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a
eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the applicable Borrower may designate. 

  
 52 












 (f) Any Availability test or condition set forth in the definitions of “Payment
Conditions” or “Distribution Conditions” shall be calculated taking into account any Credit Extensions made to finance the applicable Permitted Transaction or Restricted Payment, as applicable. 

Section 1.09. Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with
respect to (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Term SOFR, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition
thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark
Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability,
or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate,
Term SOFR, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or
services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other
person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or
calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. 
 ARTICLE 2 

THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 

Section 2.01. Loans. Subject to Section 11.18 and the other terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally
agrees to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Loan”) to a Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period; provided, that, as to the Non-Extending
Commitments such Availability Period shall end on the Maturity Date applicable thereto, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after
giving effect to any Borrowing, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Within the limits of each Lender’s Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, any Borrower may borrow under this
Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.05(f), and reborrow under this Section 2.01. The Loans may be Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans, as further provided herein. 

Section 2.02. Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans. Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the
other, and each continuation of SOFR Loans shall be made upon the applicable Borrower’s irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by, for the avoidance of doubt but subject to Section 11.02(b), e-mail. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or
continuation of SOFR Loans or of any conversion of SOFR Loans, and one Business Day prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Not later than 11:00 a.m., three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the requested date
of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation of SOFR Loans, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each
e-mail notice by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed 

  
 53 












 
promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Notice or Notice of Conversion or Continuation, as applicable, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer
of the applicable Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Except as provided in
Section 2.04(d), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing Notice shall specify the applicable Borrower
is requesting a Borrowing, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, the Type of Loans to be borrowed and the duration
of the Interest Period with respect thereto, if applicable. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify (i) whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other or a continuation of Loans
that are SOFR Loans, and (ii) specifying (A) the amount and Type of Loan being converted or continued, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of SOFR Loans, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a
conversion, the date of such conversion. If a Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Borrowing Notice or if such Borrower fails to give a timely Notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to SOFR Loans, then the applicable Loans shall
be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable SOFR Loans. If the applicable Borrower requests
a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of SOFR Loans in any such Borrowing Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 

(a) Following receipt of a Borrowing Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Applicable
Percentage under the applicable Loan, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall notify each such Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans
described in the preceding subsection. In the case of any Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00
p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Notice. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is on the Effective Date,
Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by crediting the account of the applicable Borrower
on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the applicable Borrower;
provided, however, that if, on the date a Borrowing Notice with respect to a Borrowing is given by a Borrower, there are L/C Advances outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full
of any Unreimbursed Amounts in respect thereof, and second, shall be made available to the applicable Borrower as provided above. 

(b) Unless the Lenders are compensated for any losses under Section 3.05, a SOFR Loan may be continued or converted
only on the last day of an Interest Period for such SOFR Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as SOFR Loans if the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent so notify the applicable
Borrower then, so long as such Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a SOFR Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid as provided herein, each SOFR Borrowing shall automatically be converted
to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period therefor. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the
Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for SOFR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders
of any change in the Administrative Agent’s “prime rate” used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 

  
 54 












 (d) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the
other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than five (5) Interest Periods in effect under the Facility. 

Section 2.03. Protective Advances. (a) The Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its sole discretion (but with no
obligation), (i) after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or (ii) at any time that any conditions in Section 4.02 are not satisfied, to make Loans (“Protective Advances”)
in an aggregate principal amount outstanding not to exceed 5.0% of the Commitment at any time, if the Administrative Agent deems, in its Reasonable Credit Judgment, that such are Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect the Collateral, to
enhance the collectability or repayment of the Obligations or to pay any other amounts chargeable to the Loan Parties under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. Subject to the following paragraph, each Lender shall participate in
Protective Advances on a pro rata basis. Required Lenders may prospectively revoke Administrative Agent’s ability to make such Protective Advances by written notice to Administrative Agent. All Protective Advances shall constitute Base Rate
Loans and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate and the Default Rate under Section 2.09(b)(i). Each Protective Advance shall be payable on demand. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Protective Advance may be made by Administrative Agent
if such advance would cause the aggregate principal amount of all Protective Advances outstanding to exceed 5.0% of the aggregate Commitments. 

(c) Each Protective Advance shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent on the Collateral and shall constitute
Obligations hereunder. The making of a Protective Advance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any Protective Advance on any other occasion. At any time that the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 4.02 have been satisfied or waived, the Administrative Agent may request that the Lenders to make a Loan to repay any Protective Advances. 

(d) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or Event of
Default), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, unconditionally and irrevocably to have purchased from the Administrative Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such
Protective Advance, in proportion to its Applicable Percentage, and upon demand by the Administrative Agent, shall fund such participation to the Administrative Agent. 

Section 2.04. Letters of Credit. The Letter of Credit Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
(A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit
Sublimit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.04(c), and to
honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party and any drawings thereunder; provided, that after giving
effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (w) the L/C Obligations outstanding with respect to such L/C Issuer shall not exceed the L/C Sublimit of such L/C Issuer, (x) the aggregate amount of L/C Obligations
shall not exceed the L/C Sublimit of all L/C Issuers taken as a whole, (y) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the 

  
 55 












 
Maximum Revolving Credit and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations
shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment. Each Borrower hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to allocate the aggregate face amount of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder ratably among the L/C Issuers in accordance with their
respective individual L/C Sublimit. Each request by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the applicable Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so
requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully
revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 

(a) No L/C Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit if the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the
Letter of Credit Sublimit Expiration Date, unless the applicable L/C Issuer in its sole discretion and all the Lenders, have approved such expiry date. 

(i) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain
such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit,
or request that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital
requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which
such L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 
 (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more
policies of such L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally; 
 (C) except as otherwise agreed by the
Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000; 
 (D)
such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; 
 (E) subject to
Section 2.04(c)(iv), such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or 

(F) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under Section 2.04(d) exists or any Lender is
at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the applicable L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender. 

(ii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not have any obligation
at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 

  
 56 












 (iii) Each 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, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities provided to the Administrative Agent in Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by
such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article 9 included
such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer. 

(iv) No L/C Issuer shall be required to issue documentary or “trade” Letters of Credit (as opposed to
“standby” Letters of Credit). 
 (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of
Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the applicable Borrower delivered to an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application,
appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least four
Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a
request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which
shall be a Business Day); the amount thereof; the expiry date thereof; the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; the full text of any certificate to be
presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
Application shall specify in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer the Letter of Credit to be amended; the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); the nature of the proposed amendment;
and such other matters as the applicable L/C Issuer may reasonably require. Additionally, the applicable Borrower shall furnish to the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such
requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require. 

(i) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative
Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the applicable Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless
such L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable
conditions contained in Article 4 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or
enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the applicable L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to,
and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such
Letter of Credit. 

  
 57 












 (ii) If a Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit
Application, an L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided, that any such
Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the applicable L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary
thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the
applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrowers shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but
may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than 12 months after the then-current expiry date; provided, however, that the applicable L/C Issuer
shall not permit any such extension if the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the
provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.04(b)), or it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the
Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each
such case directing the applicable L/C Issuer not to permit such extension. 
 (iii) If a Borrower so requests in any
applicable Letter of Credit Application, an L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder
(each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, such Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once
an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount
thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the applicable L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof
after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement
Deadline”), the applicable L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the
Non-Reinstatement Deadline from the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied
(treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the applicable L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement. 

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with
respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the applicable Borrower a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

  
 58 












 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. Upon receipt from the
beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall, within the period stipulated by the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, examine the applicable drawing documents.
After such examination and provided that such drawing documents are compliant, L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. The applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative
Agent, either with its own funds or with the proceeds of Loans under the Facility, in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing within one Business Day following the date on which such Borrower receives notice of any payment by such L/C Issuer
under a Letter of Credit, provided that the Borrowers receive notice by 1:00 p.m., New York City time on such date, or on the second Business Day if notice is not received by such time (each such date, an “Honor Date”). If
such Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer by the time set forth in the preceding sentence, the applicable L/C Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the Honor Date and the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the
“Unreimbursed Amount”). The Administrative Agent shall, in the case of a payment under a Letter of Credit, promptly notify each Lender thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Any notice given
by such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.04(d)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided, that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not
affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 (i) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
Section 2.04(d)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed
Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.04(d)(iii), each Lender that so makes
funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the relevant Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer. 

(ii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount for a payment under a Letter of Credit that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing
of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in
the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Loans that are Base Rate Loans from the Honor Date to
the date reimbursement is required pursuant to Section 2.04(d)(i) and thereafter, the Default Rate. Each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to
Section 2.04(d)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this
Section 2.03. 
 (iii) Until each Lender funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this
Section 2.04(d) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the
applicable L/C Issuer. 
 (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable L/C
Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.04(d), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right which such Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or any other occurrence, event or condition,
whether or not similar to any of the foregoing (it being understood and agreed that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(d) shall not be subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under
any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

  
 59 












 (v) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(d) by the time specified in Section 2.04(d)(ii), the
L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately
available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest
and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through
the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.04(d)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Repayment of Participations. At any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any
Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.04(d), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed
Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the applicable Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of cash collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable
Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 

(i) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to
Section 2.04(d) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each
Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by
such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of
Credit and to repay each Unreimbursed Amount shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 

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

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

  
 60 












 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to
make a drawing under such Letter of Credit, except to the extent caused by the applicable L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
non-appealable judgment; 
 (iv) any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under such
Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, so long as the L/C Issuer shall have determined in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, in good
faith and in accordance with the standard of care specified in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment appear on their
face to be in conformity with such Letter of Credit; 
 (v) any payment made by the applicable L/C Issuer under such Letter
of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other
representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or 

(vi) any other action taken or omitted to be taken by the applicable L/C Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of
Credit or the related drafts or documents, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for this Section 2.04(f)(vi), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrowers’ obligations
hereunder. 
 The applicable Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to
it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the applicable Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer. Such Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any
such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each
Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the
Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective
Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuers shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders as
applicable; any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The
Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the
Borrowers pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the Borrowers may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer,
and the applicable L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the 

  
 61 












 
Borrowers which the applicable Borrower proves were caused by the applicable L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final, non-appealable judgment. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for
further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the applicable L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a
Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 

(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (A) if, as of the Letter of Credit Sublimit Expiration Date or
the Termination Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding or (B) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of such L/C
Obligation. 
 (i) Section 2.04 and 8.02(a)(iii) set forth certain additional requirements to deliver cash
collateral hereunder. “Cash Collateralize” means (A) to pledge to the Administrative Agent and deposit in a L/C Cash Collateral Account, for the benefit of the applicable L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C
Obligations, cash or deposit account balances in an amount equal to 103% of the L/C Obligations pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer (which documents are
hereby consented to by the Lenders), or (B) to deliver to the applicable L/C Issuer a backstop letter of credit (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and issued by a U.S. commercial bank
acceptable to each of such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent, in their commercially reasonable discretion). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrowers hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
L/C Issuers and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash collateral shall be maintained in the L/C Cash Collateral Account. If at any time the Administrative
Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all
L/C Obligations Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate
Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for
which funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of such drawing. 

(h) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of
Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. 
 (i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for Loans that are SOFR
Loans times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance
with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees for Letters of Credit shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and due and payable five (5) Business Days after the last Business Day of each calendar quarter,
commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter 

  
 62 












 
of Credit and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and
multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default
under Sections 8.01(a), (f) or (g) exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
 (j)
Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall pay to the applicable L/C Issuer, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the face amount drawn
under each Letter of Credit, computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the first Business Day following the last day of each calendar
quarter, in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Sublimit
Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06.
In addition, the Borrowers shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, negotiation, acceptance, transfer, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer
relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 

(k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the
terms hereof shall control. 
 (l) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or
outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrowers
hereby acknowledge that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Subsidiary of any of the Borrowers inures to the benefit of the Borrowers, and that each Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of
each such Subsidiary. 
 Section 2.05. Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline
Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.05, to make loans (each such loan, a “Swingline Loan”) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day
during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swingline Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swingline Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swingline Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, (i) the Total
Outstandings shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender at such time, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such
time, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans at such time shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided further that the Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any
Swingline Loan to refinance any outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.05, prepay under
Section 2.06, and reborrow under this Section 2.05. Each Swingline Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lender a risk participation in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swingline Loan. 

  
 63 












 (a) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be made upon the applicable
Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, which notice shall be in writing. Each such notice must be received by the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City
time) on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such notice must be confirmed promptly
by delivery to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swingline Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swingline Lender of any
Swingline Loan Notice, the Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swingline Loan Notice and, if not, the Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (in
writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swingline
Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.05(a), or (B) that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Article 4 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the borrowing date specified in such Swingline
Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swingline Loan available to the applicable Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds. 

(b) Refinancing of Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, and in any event on the 10th Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made, shall request, on behalf of the applicable Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so request on its behalf), that each
Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding or, in the case of any request given with respect to Swingline Loans which have been outstanding for 10
Business Days, the amount of such outstanding Swingline Loans; provided, that such Loans may, and upon the applicable Borrower’s request shall, be made as SOFR Loans if a SOFR Loan could otherwise be made pursuant to
Section 2.02. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum
and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans or SOFR Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swingline
Lender shall furnish the applicable Borrower with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount
specified in such Borrowing Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day
specified in such Borrowing Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.05(c)(ii), each Swingline Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan (or SOFR Loan, if applicable) to the
applicable Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lender. 

(i) If for any reason any Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing in accordance with
Section 2.05(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swingline Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the
relevant Swingline Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. 

  
 64 












 (ii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Swingline Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05(c) by the time specified in Section 2.05(c)(i), the
Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is
immediately available to the Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swingline Lender in connection with the
foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swingline Loan, as the case may
be. A certificate of the Swingline Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(iii) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to
this Section 2.05(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the
Swingline Lender, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing (it being understood and agreed that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) shall not be subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02). No
such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 

(c) Repayment of Participations. At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swingline Loan, if the
Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period
of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swingline Lender. 

(i) If any payment received by the Swingline Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be
returned by the Swingline Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the
Swingline Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate. The
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(d) Interest for Account of Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the
Swingline Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.05 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swingline Loan, interest in respect of such
Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swingline Lender. 
 (e) Payments of Swingline Loans. The Borrowers shall
make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Loans to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender. 

  
 65 












 Section 2.06. Prepayments. Optional. The Borrowers may, upon notice to
the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided, that such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three U.S.
Government Securities Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of SOFR Loans and on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; any prepayment of SOFR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess
thereof; and any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall
specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if SOFR Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such
notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the
date specified therein. Any prepayment of a SOFR Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. 

(a) Mandatory. If, at any time, the Total Outstandings at such time exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit, then, within one Business Day,
the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding Loans and/or the Cash Collateralize the outstanding L/C Obligations (including by depositing funds in the L/C Cash Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.04(h)(i)) in an
aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the amount of Total Outstandings as of such date of payment to an amount less than or equal to the Maximum Revolving Credit; provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.04(h)(ii), the Borrowers shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans the Total
Outstandings exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit above at such time. 
 (i) At any time following the occurrence and during
the continuation of a Liquidity Period, within five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Disposition of Collateral or any Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds (other than any Disposition (A) permitted by
Section 7.05(a), (b), (c), (d), (h) or (i), or (B) in the ordinary course of business of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries), the Borrowers shall apply an amount equal to
100% of such Net Proceeds or Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds, as applicable, received with respect thereto to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the outstanding L/C Obligations, and the Borrowers shall
deliver an updated Borrowing Base Certificate to the Administrative Agent on the date of any such Disposition or receipt of Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds. 

(ii) Prepayments of the Facilities made pursuant to this Section 2.06(b), shall be applied,
first, to the L/C Borrowings, Swingline Loans or Protective Advances, second, ratably to the outstanding Loans and third, to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations. 

(iii) In the case of prepayments of the Facilities required pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of this
Section 2.06(b), the amount remaining, if any, after the prepayment in full of all L/C Borrowings and Loans, outstanding at such time and the Cash Collateralization of the remaining L/C Obligations in full may be retained
by the Borrowers for use in the ordinary course of their business. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held in the L/C Cash Collateral Account shall be applied (without any further action by or
notice to or from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) to reimburse the L/C Issuer or the Lenders, as applicable. 

  
 66 












 (b) At the option of the Administrative Agent, principal on the Swingline Loans and
interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Loans and Protective Advances may be paid from the proceeds of Swingline Loans or Loans. Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Swingline Lender to make such Swingline Loans
pursuant to Section 2.05(a) and the Lenders to make such Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b) from time to time in the amounts of any and all principal payable with respect to the Swingline
Loans and interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Loans and Protective Advances, and further authorizes the Administrative Agent to give the Lenders notice of any Borrowing with respect to such Swingline Loans and Revolving
Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans to pay such amounts. The Borrowers agree that all such Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it and directs that all
proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts. 
 Section 2.07. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The
Borrowers may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments; provided, that any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business
Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the aggregate
Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or
reduction of the applicable aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each applicable Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. 

(a) Termination of Non-Extending Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement or any Loan Document, the aggregate principal amount of all Non-Extending Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date applicable with respect thereto, and all or any part
of a Non-Extending Commitment Lender’s participation in any L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Extending Commitment Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages (calculated with respect to the Commitments set forth on Schedule 1.01(b)(ii)) but only to the extent that such reallocation (i) does not cause the aggregate Outstanding Amount of any Extending Commitment Lender’s Loans and L/C
Obligations to exceed such Extending Commitment Lender’s Commitment and, (ii) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Credit. 

(b) Payment of Fees. All fees in respect of the Facility accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Facility shall be
paid on the effective date of such termination. 
 Section 2.08. Repayment of Loans. 

(a) Loans. The Borrowers shall, on a joint and several basis in accordance with Section 11.18, repay to the applicable Lenders
(i) on the Maturity Date applicable to the Non-Extending Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding with respect to the Non-Extending
Commitments, including all fees, interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable in connection therewith (it being understood and agreed that such payment will be on a non-pro rata basis) and (ii) on the
Termination Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date, including all fees, interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable in connection therewith. 

(b) Swingline Loans. The Borrowers shall, on a joint and several basis in accordance with Section 11.18, repay each Swingline Loan

 67 












 Section 2.09. Interest. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.09(b), 
 (i) Each Loan that is a SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate and a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the
applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and 
 (ii) each
Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 

(b) While any Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(f) and
Section 8.01(g) exists, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee payable by the Borrowers hereunder is not, in each case, paid or reimbursed when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise,
the relevant overdue amount shall bear interest, to the fullest extent permitted by law, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate; provided that no amount shall accrue pursuant to this
Section 2.09(b) on any overdue amount or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest)
shall be due and payable upon demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein.

described in Sections 2.04(j) and (k): 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to (i) on any date on which Availability is less than 50% of the aggregate Commitments, 0.25% times

 (d) Defaulting Lender Fees. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during
such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to clause (a) above (without prejudice to the rights of the
Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided, that (i) to the extent that a Ratable Portion of the L/C Obligations of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16(a), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such
Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, and (ii) to the extent that all or any portion of such L/C Obligations cannot be so reallocated, such fees will
instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer. 
 Section 2.11. Computation of Interest and
Fees.  
 (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (other than Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate based on clause
(c) of the definition thereof) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a
360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such
portion is paid, provided, that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.13(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest
rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) Term SOFR Conforming Changes. In
connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments
implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the
effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR. 
 Section 2.12. Evidence of
Debt. The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and, as part of the Register, by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or
records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or
any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any
Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to the Borrowers made
through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note (payable to such Lender or its registered assigns), which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans to the Borrowers in
addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

(a) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.12(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records
maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

 Section 2.13. Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s
Clawback. General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all
payments by the Borrowers or the other Loan Parties hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately
available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each applicable Lender its ratable share of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s
Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers
shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender
prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such
Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that
such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a
Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in
immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at in the case of a payment to be made by
such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate
applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest
paid by the Borrowers for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers
shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

(i) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to such Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not
in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, 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 the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate. 

  
 70 












 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrowers with respect to any
amount owing under this Section 2.13(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (b) Failure to Satisfy
Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender to the Borrowers as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available
to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly return such
funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 (c) Obligations of Lenders Several. The
obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and all Lenders hereunder to make payments pursuant to Section 2.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of
(x) any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or (y) any Lender to make payment under Section 2.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding
obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to do so. 
 (d) Funding
Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any
particular place or manner. 
 Section 2.14. Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of Obligations due and payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of the amount of such
Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to
all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all Lenders at such time or Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its
ratable share (according to the proportion of the amount of such Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender at such time to the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under
the other Loan Parties at such time) of payment on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time then the Lender
receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and/or, if applicable, subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans 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 Obligations then due and payable to the Lenders or owing (but
not due and payable) to the Lenders, as the case may be, provided, that: 
 (i) if any such participations or
subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and


  
 71 












 (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall not
be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its
Loans, subparticipations in L/C Obligations, or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall apply), or any
payments pursuant to the Fee Letter. 
 The Borrowers consent 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 Borrowers rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 2.15. Increase in Facility. (a) Provided
that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would exist after giving effect thereto, upon at least 7 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof),
the Borrowers may from time to time request an increase in the amount of the Commitments under the Facility (each, a “Facility Increase”) in an aggregate stated amount (for all such requests) not to exceed $25,000,000 (the
“Facility Increase Amount”); provided, that (i) any such request for a Facility Increase shall be in a minimum stated amount of $10,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of the Facility Increase Amount), or
such lower amount as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, (ii) such increase shall be on the same terms (including with respect to margin, pricing, maturity and fees, other than any underwriting fees and arrangement
fees applicable thereto) and pursuant to the exact same Loan Documents and any other documentation applicable to the Facility (provided, that the Applicable Rate and the Commitment Fee applicable to the Facility may be increased to be
identical to that for any Facility Increase to effectuate such Facility Increase), (iii) such Facility Increase shall be Guaranteed by the exact same Guarantors and shall be secured by a Lien on the exact same Collateral ranking pari passu with the
Lien securing the Facility (and no Facility Increase may be (x) Guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party or (y) secured by any assets other than the Collateral), (iv) the aggregate amount of Commitments at the time of such
request, after giving effect to such Facility Increase, shall not exceed the ABL Cap (as defined in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement) and (v) the Borrowers, the Incremental Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver any
amendment to this Agreement or other documentation necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to evidence and effectuate such Facility Increase. 

(b) Lender Elections to Increase. The Borrowers may seek commitments in respect of any Facility Increase from then-existing Lenders
(each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in such Facility Increase in its sole discretion) or additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders or investors who will become Lenders in connection with
such Facility Increase (each, an “Additional Lender” and together with any existing lender providing such Facility Increase, as applicable, collectively the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that each
Additional Lender shall be approved by each of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each L/C Issuer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to the extent approval thereof would be required pursuant to
the definition of “Eligible Assignee” with respect to any assignment of Loans or Commitments. 
 (c) Effective Date and
Allocations. If the Facility is increased in accordance with this Section 2.15, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the
final allocation of such Facility Increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the final allocation of such Facility Increase and the Increase Effective Date. 

  
 72 












 (d) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such
Facility Increase, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions
adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such Facility Increase, and (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and after giving effect to such Facility Increase, (A) the representations and warranties
contained in Article 5 and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date,
in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.15, the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.05(a) shall be deemed
to refer to the most recent financial statements furnished pursuant to Section 6.01, and (B) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Borrowers shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the
Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitments under this Section 2.15. 
 (e)
Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any conflicting provisions in Section 2.14 or Section 11.01. 

Section 2.16. Defaulting Lender. 

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders; and 
 (ii)
Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 8
or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to
the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender
hereunder; third, if so determined by the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of any participation in any Swingline Loan or L/C
Obligation; fourth, as the Borrowers 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 Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund
Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuers or Swingline
Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers
as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such
Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not
fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were 

  
 73 












 
made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely
to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings 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 Borrowings 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 Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to clause (iii) 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 2.16(a)(ii) shall be
deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (iii)
Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the
Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not
cause the aggregate Outstanding Amount of any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Loans and L/C Obligations to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a
Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(iv) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be
effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, cash collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 2.16(a)(ii). 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, each L/C
Issuer and each Swingline Lender 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 and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility
(without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iii)), 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 Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will
constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 (c)
New Swingline Loans / Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have not Fronting Exposure after giving
effect to such Swingline Loans and (ii) no L/C Issuer shall 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. 

  
 74 












 Section 2.17. Benchmark Replacement Setting. 

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition
Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any
Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date 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. 
 (b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or
implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such
Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of
(i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will
promptly notify the Borrowers of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.17(d). 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 2.17, 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 2.17. 

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time
(including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or
other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such
Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions
(IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable,
non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause
(i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be
representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify
the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

  
 75 












 (e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of
the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period
and, failing that, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current
Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. 

ARTICLE 3 
 TAXES,
YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 Section 3.01. Taxes. Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party 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 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 applicable Loan Party shall be
increased as necessary so that after such deductions or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01(a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to
the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholding been made. 
 (a) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The
Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes. 

(b) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and
each L/C Issuer, within 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 the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates, as the case may be,
and any penalties, interest and 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 Borrowers by a Lender or an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 
 (c) Indemnification by the Lender. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days
after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of
the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.06(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 Section 3.01(d). 

  
 76 












 (d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any
Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.01, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing
such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(e) 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the
Borrowers 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 Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such
other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers 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 3.01(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, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Borrower, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall
deliver to the Borrowers and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by applicable law or upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or
Administrative Agent), executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers 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 request of the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1) 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 copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E 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, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E 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; 

  
 77 












 (2) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI; 
 (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x)(i) a certificate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent 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 Borrowers 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 (ii)(y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign
Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrowers and Administrative Agent, Form W-9, and/or other certification document form 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 to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrowers and Administrative Agent on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, or 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers 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 Borrowers or the
Administrative Agent), executed copies 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 Borrowers 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent
at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers 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 

  
 78 












 
requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers 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 is 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its the sole discretion and good faith judgment, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall promptly pay to the indemnifying party an
amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnified 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 paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to
pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This
paragraph 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. 

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 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 Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligation under any Loan Document. 

(h) Defined Terms. For purpose of this Section 3.01, any term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer and the term
“applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 Section 3.02. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Term
SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Term SOFR, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers (through the Administrative Agent), (a) any obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR
Loans, and any right of the Borrowers to continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the
Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no
longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrowers shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all SOFR Loans to Base Rate
Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such 

  
 79 












 
Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”), on the last day of
the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, and (ii) if necessary to avoid
such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate,” in each case until the Administrative Agent is advised in
writing by each affected Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate or Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay
accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. 

Section 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 2.17, if, on or prior to the first day of
any Interest Period for any SOFR Loan: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent
manifest error) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof; or 
 (b) the Required Lenders determine
that for any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, 
 the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders. 
 Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, any
obligation of the Lenders to make SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrowers to continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the
Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation
of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount
specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on
the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.14. Subject to Section 2.17, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of
the definition of “Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination. 
 Section 3.04. Increased Costs;
Reserves on SOFR Loans. 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 Eurocurrency Rate contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or any L/C Issuer; 

  
 80 












 (ii) subject any Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer (other than
(A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (c) 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 L/C Issuer or the
London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or SOFR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer of making, continuing, converting to
or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer 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 or such L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of
such Lender or such L/C Issuer, the Borrowers will pay to such Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Administrative Agent, Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such
efforts would not be disadvantageous to it, in its reasonable discretion, in any legal, economic or regulatory manner) to designate a different SOFR Rate lending office if the making of such designation would allow the Lender or its SOFR Rate
lending office to continue to perform its obligation to make SOFR Loans or to continue to fund or maintain SOFR Loans and avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any
Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s capital
or on the capital of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the 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 such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, after submission to the Borrowers (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C
Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an
L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 3.04, describing
the basis therefore and showing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as
due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender
or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided, that
the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this 

  
 81 












 
Section 3.04 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 90-days prior to the date that such Lender or such
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such 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 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

(e) Additional Reserve Requirements. The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain
reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each SOFR Loan equal to the
actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), and as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve
ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the SOFR Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per
annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places with Dollar amounts rounded to two decimal points (for invoices and ledgers, but, for the avoidance of doubt, not rounded internally by the relevant Lender)) equal to the
actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest
is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrowers shall have received at least 10 Business Days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender describing the basis therefor and
showing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable within 30 days from receipt of such
notice. 
 Section 3.05. Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time
to time, the Borrowers shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

(a) any conversion, payment or prepayment of any SOFR Loan, and any conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a SOFR Loan, on a day other than the last
day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any
failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, or continue any SOFR Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan to a SOFR Loan, on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrowers; or 

(c) any assignment of a SOFR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrowers
pursuant to Section 11.13; 
 including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it
to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, but excluding any loss of anticipated profits. The Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in
connection with the foregoing. 
 Section 3.06. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests
compensation under Section 3.04, or the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans
hereunder or to assign its rights 

  
 82 












 
and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant
to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and in each case, would not subject such Lender to
any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

(a) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, if the Borrowers are
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different
lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02 or if any Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may replace such
Lender in accordance with Section 11.13. 
 Section 3.07. Survival. All of the Borrowers’
obligations under this Article 3 shall survive termination of the aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

 Section 6.06. Maintenance of Properties. With respect to each of the Borrowers
and each of its respective Subsidiaries, maintain, preserve and protect all of its properties and equipment necessary in the operation of its business in good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire or other casualty
or taking by condemnation excepted), except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Loan Parties shall use, store and maintain all Inventory with reasonable care and caution, in accordance
with applicable standards of any insurance and in conformity with all applicable Law.

Maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by Persons engaged in the same or Similar Business, of such
types and in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance compatible with the following standards) as are customarily carried by companies engaged in Similar Businesses and owning similar properties in localities where any of the
Borrowers or their respective Subsidiaries operate. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries will maintain or cause to be maintained flood insurance with respect to each parcel of
improved Real Property that is covered by a Mortgage and located in a Special Flood Hazard Area (as designated by the Federal Emergency Management Administration) of a community that participates in the National Flood Insurance Program, in each case
in compliance with any applicable regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, liability insurance, business interruption insurance, and replacement value casualty insurance on the Collateral under such policies of insurance,
with such insurance companies, in such amounts, with such deductibles, and covering such risks as would be carried or maintained under similar circumstances by Persons of established reputation engaged in Similar Businesses. Each such policy of
insurance shall name the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Secured Parties, as an additional insured thereunder as its interests may appear, in the case of each casualty insurance policy, contain a loss payable clause or endorsement, reasonably
satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent, that names the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, as the loss payee thereunder and provide for at least thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative
Agent of any modification or cancellation of such policy. 
 Section 6.08. Compliance with Laws. Comply in all respects with the
requirements of all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its business or property, except in such instances in which such requirement of Law or order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith
by the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted or the failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 6.09. Books and Records. Maintain proper books of record and account, in which in all material respects full, true
and correct entries in conformity with GAAP consistently applied shall be made of all material financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of each of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be;
maintain such books of record and account in material conformity with all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having regulatory jurisdiction over the Borrowers or such Subsidiary, as the case may be; and each Loan Party shall keep
accurate and complete records of its Inventory, including costs and daily withdrawals and additions. 
 Section 6.10. Inspection
Rights; Field Exams; Appraisals. Permit representatives and independent contractors of the Administrative Agent, and during any continuation of an Event of Default, any Lender, at the Borrowers’ expense, to visit and inspect any of
its properties, to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom during normal business hours (except to the extent any such access is restricted by a requirement of Law or any such
agreements, contracts or the like are subject to a written confidentiality agreement with a non-Affiliate that prohibits the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries from granting such access to the
Administrative Agent or 

  
 97 












 
the Lenders; provided, that with respect to such confidentiality restrictions affecting the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries, a Responsible Officer is made available to
such Lender to discuss such confidential information to the extent permitted), and to discuss the business, finances and accounts with its officers and independent public accountants at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often
as may be reasonably desired, provided, that the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall give Borrowers reasonable advance notice prior to any contact with such accountants and give the Borrowers the opportunity to participate in such
discussions.

Base and (ii) any representatives or independent contractors of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to visit the properties of the Loan Parties to, at the Lenders’ expense, conduct evaluations and environmental assessments and
ongoing maintenance and monitoring of the assets and properties of the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries constituting Non-ABL Priority Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require;
provided that, so long as a Liquidity Period is not in effect, not more than two field examinations and two inventory appraisals may be conducted at the Borrowers’ expense per twelve-month period; provided further, during any
Liquidity Period, one additional field examination and one additional inventory appraisal may be conducted at the Borrowers’ expense in any twelve-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, following the occurrence and during the continuation
of an Event of Default, such field examinations and inventory appraisals may be conducted at the Borrowers’ expense as many times as the Administrative Agent shall consider reasonably necessary. In addition, the Borrowers shall have the right
(but not the obligation), at the Borrowers’ expense, at any time and from time to time (but not more than once per twelve-month period) to provide the Administrative Agent with additional field examinations and additional inventory appraisals
of any or all of the Collateral, prepared in a form and on a basis reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in which case such field examination or such inventory appraisal shall be used in connection with the calculation of the
Borrowing Base hereunder. Each inventory appraisal after the Effective Date shall be performed by any Approved Appraiser. Each field examination after the Effective Date shall be performed by any Approved Field Examiner. With respect to each field
examination or inventory appraisal made after the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers shall each be given at least five Business Days to review and comment on the facts set forth in a draft form of such field examination or
such inventory appraisal prior to its finalization and any adjustments to the Borrowing Base as a result of such field examination or such inventory appraisal shall become effective immediately following the finalization of such field examination or
inventory appraisal.

name of the Administrative Agent, any designee of the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of any Loan Party by mail, telephone or otherwise. The Loan Parties shall

Commodities Account, a “Control Account”). Each such Blocked Account Agreement shall permit the Administrative Agent, during any Liquidity Period, upon written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent to Holdings, to instruct
the applicable depository to transfer (whether by ACH, wire transfer or otherwise as the Administrative Agent may direct) by the end of each Business Day all ledger or available, as applicable, cash receipts held in such Control Accounts to the
Collateral Account. No Loan Party shall direct any Account Debtor, or any customer, to make payments on Accounts to any Deposit Account other than the Control Accounts and the Collateral Account. 

(b) Each Loan Party shall not establish or maintain any Securities Account, Commodities Account or Deposit Account that is not a Control
Account, in each case, other than any Excluded Accounts. Each Loan Party shall instruct each Person that is obligated to make any payment to it, to make such payment or to continue to make payment, to the appropriate Control Account as required by
this Section 6.19.

 (c) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) during any Liquidity
Period, it shall have no right of withdrawal from the Control Accounts and (ii) the funds on deposit in the Control Accounts shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations. In the event that,
notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6.19, a Loan Party receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any such proceeds or collections, such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party
for the Administrative Agent, shall not be commingled with any of such Loan Party’s other funds or deposited in any account of such Loan Party and shall promptly be deposited into the appropriate Control Account or dealt with in such other
fashion as such Loan Party may be instructed by the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Without limiting the foregoing, funds on deposit in any
Deposit Account or Securities Account under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent may be invested (but the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to make any such investment) in Cash Equivalents at the direction of the
Administrative Agent and, except during the continuance of a Liquidity Period, the Administrative Agent agrees with the Borrowers to issue entitlement orders for such investments in Cash Equivalents as reasonably requested by the Borrowers;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for, or bear any risk of loss of, any such investment or income thereon. 

(e) Subject to clause (a) above, any amounts received in the Collateral Account and each other Control Account (other than the L/C Cash
Collateral Account) shall be applied, first to payment of all Loans then due, second to the extent otherwise required by the Agreement, to Cash Collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit, and then as directed by the
Borrower; provided that, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all amounts in Control Accounts shall be applied pursuant to Section 8.03.

 For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.02: 

(1) in the event that an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of
Indebtedness permitted in clauses (a) through (bb) of Section 7.02 above (or any portion thereof), then the Borrowers may, in their sole discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify (as if incurred at

(2) at the time of incurrence, division, classification or reclassification, the Borrowers will be entitled to divide and
classify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the categories of Indebtedness described in clauses (a) through (bb) of Section 7.02 (or any portion thereof) without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness incurred, divided,
classified or reclassified pursuant to any other clause of Section 7.02 (or any portion thereof) when calculating the amount of Indebtedness that may be incurred, divided, classified or reclassified pursuant to any such clause (or any portion

or deferred financing costs or liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes

Subsidiaries may incur pursuant to this Section 7.02 shall not be deemed to be exceeded, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness, solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any
Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, will be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which the respective
Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of the refinancing.

ARTICLE 9 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 9.01. Appointment. Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms and provisions
hereof and of the other Loan Documents, together with such power as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall have no
duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, L/C Issuer or participant, and no implied covenants, functions,
responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term
“agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such
term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. The provisions of this Article 9 (other than Sections 9.10 and
9.12) are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. 

(a) Each 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, and each such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with
Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Article 9
and in the definition of “Agent Affiliate” included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its
capacities as a Lender or Swingline Lender (if applicable)) and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on
behalf of or on trust for) such Lender, L/C Issuer and its Affiliates for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and
discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or
any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions


  
 125 












 
of this Article 9 (including Section 9.07, as though such co-agents, sub-agents
and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Lenders and L/C Issuers hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect
thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders and L/C Issuers. 

Section 9.02. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through agents, sub-agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact (including for the purpose of any Borrowing or payment in alternative currencies) as shall
be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Each such sub-agent and the
Affiliates of the Administrative Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 9, Section 11.04(a) and
Section 11.04(b) (as though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. The Administrative
Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in
the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 

Section 9.03. Liability of Agents. No Agent Affiliate shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any
of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender, L/C Issuer or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer
thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or
the execution, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral
Documents, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent Affiliate shall be under any obligation to any Lender, any L/C Issuer or participant to ascertain or
to 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 the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents,
(v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) or to inspect the properties, books or
records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof. No Agent Affiliate shall have any duties or obligations to any Lender, any L/C Issuer or participant except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Agent Affiliates: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 

  
 126 












 (b) 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 such Person 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 such Person shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose it to liability or that is contrary to any Loan
Document or applicable law; and 
 (c) shall not be required to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to
any person on behalf of any Lender or any L/C Issuer and each Lender and each L/C Issuer confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in
relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. 
 No Agent Affiliate be liable (i) to any
participant or Secured Party or their Affiliates for any failure, delay in performance, breach by, or as a result of information provided by, any other party to any Loan Document or action taken or not taken by it 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 such Person shall believe in good faith shall be necessary under the circumstances) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 9.04. Reliance by the
Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, instrument, document, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person
or Persons, and/or upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or
refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders and
L/C Issuers against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure
to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and L/C Issuers; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or in the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent
to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law. 
 Section 9.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative
Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or
the L/C Issuers, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative
Agent will notify the Lenders and the L/C Issuers of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 8;
provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default
as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers. 

  
 127 












 Section 9.06. Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender
and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that no Agent Affiliate has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs
of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent Affiliate to any Lender or L/C Issuer as to any matter, including whether Agent Affiliates have disclosed material information in
their possession. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent Affiliate and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of
and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the
transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer also represents that it will, independently and
without reliance upon any Agent Affiliate and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties.
Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any L/C Issuer with any credit or
other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent Affiliate.

 Section 9.07. Indemnification of the Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated, the Lenders and L/C Issuers shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent and each other Agent Affiliate (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do
so), pro rata, and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each other Agent Affiliate from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender or L/C Issuer shall be liable for the payment to any Agent
Affiliate of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Agent Affiliate’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that no action
taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this
Section 9.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or
proceeding is brought by any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender and each L/C Issuer shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of any law firm or other external legal counsel and compensation of agents and employees paid
for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations,
legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not
reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrowers, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders or by the L/C Issuers shall not affect the Borrowers’ continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. The
undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Commitments of all Lenders and all L/C Issuers, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent. 

  
 128 












 Section 9.08. Withholding Tax. If any Governmental Authority of the United
States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Taxes from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any L/C Issuer for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate
form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender or such L/C Issuer failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such
Lender or such L/C Issuer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by any Loan Party and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the applicable
Loan Party to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties thereto, together with all reasonable expenses incurred, including legal
expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Government Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or any L/C Issuer by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

Section 9.09. Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. (a) Any Person serving as 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 each Person serving as Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept
deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent or
an L/C Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders and L/C Issuer acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any of
its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to
them. With respect to its Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent the Administrative Agent an L/C Issuer,
and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include each Agent in its individual capacity. 
 (b) Each Lender and each L/C
Issuer understands that the Person serving as Administrative Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Agent’s Group”) are engaged in a wide range of financial services and
businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Section 9.09 as
“Activities”) and may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of one or more of the Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates. Furthermore, the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in
financial products or undertake other investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar
positions in the Company, another Loan Party or their respective Affiliates), including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of one or more of the Loan Parties or their
Affiliates. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the Agent’s Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning the Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information
concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) which information may not be available to any of the Lenders or any of the L/C Issuers that are not members of the
Agent’s Group. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any member of the Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Lender or any L/C Issuer or use on behalf of the Lenders or on behalf of the L/C Issuers, and shall not be liable
for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from the Activities or 

  
 129 












 
otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan
Party) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that the Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Lender and each L/C Issuer such documents as are expressly required by
any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers. 
 (c) Each Lender and each L/C Issuer
further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent’s Group or their respective customers (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may
conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Lenders or L/C Issuers (including the interests of the Lenders or L/C Issuers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents). Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees that no member of the
Agent’s Group is or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of the Person serving as Administrative Agent being a member of the Agent’s Group, and that each member of the Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities
without further consultation with or notification to any Lender or any L/C Issuer. None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, (ii) the receipt by the Agent’s Group of information (including Information) concerning the
Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) nor (iii) any other matter shall give rise to any
fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation any duty of trust or confidence) owing by the Administrative Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group to any Lender or any L/C Issuer including any such duty that would
prevent or restrict the Agent’s Group from acting on behalf of customers (including the Loan Parties or their Affiliates) or for its own account. 

Section 9.10. Resignation by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty
(30) days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrowers. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which
successor agent shall be consented to by Holdings at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) (which consent of Holdings shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no
successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Holdings, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean
such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9, Section 11.04(a) and Section 11.04(b) shall inure to its benefit as to any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring
Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders and L/C Issuers shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of
such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be
granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the Section 6.12 is satisfied, the successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion,
privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the 

  
 130 












 
Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.10). After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9, Section 11.04(a) and Section 11.04(b) shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken
by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. 
 Any resignation by the Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section 9.10 shall also constitute its resignation as a Swingline Lender and its resignation as an L/C Issuer. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer, (ii) the retiring Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer shall be discharged from all of their
respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by Citibank, N.A., if any, outstanding at the time
of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer effectively to assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Lenders determine that the Person serving as Administrative Agent
is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender, the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to
Section 11.01) may by notice to the Administrative Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of Holdings (not to be unreasonably withheld), appoint a replacement
Administrative Agent hereunder. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the date a replacement Administrative Agent is appointed. 

Section 9.11. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, 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 Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and
all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under
Section 2.04(j), Section 2.04(k), Section 2.10 and Section 11.04(b)) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

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

and any custodian, receiver, interim receiver, receiver and manager, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each 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 or L/C
Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under
Section 2.10 and Section 11.04(b). 

  
 131 












 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 any L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any L/C Issuer or to authorize the Administrative
Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any L/C Issuer in any such proceeding. 
 Section 9.12. Collateral and
Guaranty Matters. The Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably agree: 
 (a) that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon termination of the Commitments of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations
not yet accrued and payable) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit in which the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations related thereto have been Cash Collateralized or, if satisfactory to the L/C
Issuer in its sole discretion, for which a backstop letter of credit is in place), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under any
other Loan Document to a Loan Party, or (iii) subject to Section 11.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders; 

(b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of
any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i); 
 (c) that any Guarantor (other than the
Borrowers) shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guarantee in Article 10 if in the case of any Guarantor, such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; 

(d) if any Guarantor shall cease to be a Material Subsidiary (as certified in writing by a Responsible Officer) and Holdings notifies the
Administrative Agent in writing that it wishes such Guarantor to be released from its Obligations hereunder or its obligations under the Guarantee in Article 10 hereto such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from its Obligations
hereunder or its obligations under its Guarantee; 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm
in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this
Section 9.12. In each case as specified in this Section 9.12, the Administrative Agent will promptly (and each Lender and each L/C Issuer irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at
Holding’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted
under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence the release of such Loan Party from its obligations under any of the Loan Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.12. 

Section 9.13. Arrangers and Bookrunners. Except as expressly provided herein, none of the Lenders or other Persons identified on
the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “Joint Lead Arranger” or “Joint Bookrunner” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to
all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has not relied,
and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder 

  
 132 












 Section 9.14. Appointment of Supplemental Collateral Agents. It is the purpose
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It
is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or
future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative
Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral
agent, collateral sub-agent, collateral co-agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative
co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative
Agents”). 
 (b) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any
Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral
shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such
Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and
be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article 9 and of Section 11.04(a) and Section 11.04(b) that
refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental
Administrative Agent, as the context may require. 
 (c) Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental
Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, such Loan Party shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such
instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such
Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent. 

Section 9.15. Reports and Financial Statements. By signing this Agreement, each Lender and each L/C Issuer: 

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as applicable, promptly after they become
available, copies of all financial statements required to be delivered by Holdings hereunder and all field examinations, audits and appraisals of the Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (collectively, the “Reports”);


  
 133 












 (b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent (i) makes no
representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; 

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Administrative Agent or any other
party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel;

 (d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.07 (other than
clause (g) thereof); and 
 (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement,
agrees: (i) to hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any
Loans or Letters of Credit that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a Loan or Loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to pay
and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including reasonable
attorney costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender; provided that no
Lender shall be liable for the payment to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender preparing a Report for any portion of losses arising from such claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses and other amounts (including attorney costs)
to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or such other Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

Section 9.16. Posting of Approved Electronic Communications. Each of the Lenders and L/C Issuers and each Loan Party agree that
the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on Debt Domain, IntraLinksTM or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 

(a) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies
implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are
confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and each Loan Party hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.


  
 134 












 (b) The Approved Electronic Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications are provided
“as is” and “as available”. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys or representatives (each, an “Agent
Affiliate”) warrant the accuracy, adequacy or completeness of the Approved Electronic Communications or the Approved Electronic Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Approved Electronic Platform and
the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Agent Affiliates in connection with the Approved Electronic Platform or the Approved Electronic
Communications. 
 (c) Each of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and each Loan Party agree that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may
be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and
policies. 
 (d) Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders
that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to any Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Each Borrower hereby agrees that so long as a Borrower is
the issuer of any outstanding debt or equity securities that are registered or issued pursuant to a private offering or is actively contemplating issuing any such securities (w) all materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the
Borrowers hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC”
shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders to treat the
Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided,
however, that to the extent the Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 11.07); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available
through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and any Arranger shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for
posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not be under any obligation to mark the Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.” In connection with the foregoing, each
party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing provisions are not in derogation of their confidentiality obligations under Section 11.07.

 136 












 (v) no fee or other compensation is being paid directly to the
Administrative Agent or any other Arranger or any their respective Affiliates for investment advice (as opposed to other services) in connection with the Loans, the Commitments or this Agreement. 

(vi) The Administrative Agent and each other Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to
provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an
Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid

Section 9.18. Erroneous Payments. (a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party, or any
Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party such Lender or L/C Issuer (any such Lender, L/C Issuer, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has
determined in its reasonable discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were
erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, L/C Issuer, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether
transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a
portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, L/C Issuer
or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the
amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment
(or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on
behalf of a Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party such Lender or L/C Issuer, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees,
distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative
Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or
(z) that such Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case: 

  
 137 












 (i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately
preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error or mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately
preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and 
 (ii) such Lender,
L/C Issuer or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its
receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.18(b). 

(c) Each Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any
time owing to such Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, L/C Issuer or Secured Party from any source, against any amount due to the
Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. 
 (d) In
the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or
L/C Issuer that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment
Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Lender at any time, (i) such Lender or L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant
Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify)
(such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the
Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Acceptance by reference
pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or L/C Issuer shall deliver any Notes evidencing such
Loans to the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent
as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning L/C Issuer shall cease to be a Lender or L/C Issuer, as
applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as
to such assigning Lender or assigning L/C Issuer and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its
discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or L/C Issuer shall be reduced by the
net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or L/C Issuer (and/or against any 

  
 138 












 
recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or L/C Issuer and such
Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous
Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, L/C Issuer or
Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”); provided that the Loan Parties’ Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of
the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Loans that have been assigned to the Administrative Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. 

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the
Borrowers or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers or
any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section 9.18 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due
date for), the Obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent. 

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives,
and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment
received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine 
 (g) Each
party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.18 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 Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document. 

ARTICLE 10 

GUARANTEE 

Section 10.01. Guarantee. Each of the Guarantors hereby, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees
to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrowers and each other Loan Party when due
(whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations. 
 (b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to
the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under any applicable Law relating to fraudulent
conveyances, fraudulent transfers, or the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 10.02). 

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the maximum amount of the liability of such
Guarantor under Section 10.01(b) without impairing the guarantee contained in this Article 10 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Secured Parties hereunder. 

  
 139 












 (d) The guarantee contained in this Article 10 shall remain in full force and effect
until all the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due) shall have been satisfied by payment in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except to the extent that the Letters of Credit have been Cash
Collateralized or otherwise supported, in each case, on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), and the Commitments shall be terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Credit Agreement the Borrowers may be
free from any Borrower Obligations. 
 (e) No payment made by the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other Guarantor or any other Person
or received or collected by any Secured Party from the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other Guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or
application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to reduce, release, modify or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment
(other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor
hereunder until the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due) are paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except to the extent that the Letters of Credit have been Cash Collateralized or
otherwise supported, in each case, on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), and the Commitments are terminated. 

Section 10.02. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than
its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder (including by way of set-off rights being exercised against it), such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any
other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 10.03. The provisions of this
Section 10.02 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain jointly and severally liable to the Secured Parties for the full amount
guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 
 Section 10.03. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor
hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Secured Party against the Borrowers or any
Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrowers or any other
Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Secured Parties by the Borrowers on account of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due) are paid in full,
no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except to the extent that the Letters of Credit have been Cash Collateralized or otherwise supported, in each case, on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), and the Commitments are terminated. If
any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held
by such Guarantor in trust for the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly
indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine. 

  
 140 












 Section 10.04. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Borrower Obligations. Each
Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by any Secured
Party may be rescinded by such Secured Party and any of the Borrower Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset
with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, increased, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by any Secured Party, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may deem
advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Secured Party for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. No Secured Party shall have any
obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for the guarantee contained herein or any property subject thereto. 

Section 10.05. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable,
absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance that constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or a surety other than payment in full of the Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and
without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows: 
 (a) The guarantee under this Article 10 is a guaranty of
payment when due and not of collectability, and is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety. 
 (b) The
Administrative Agent may enforce the guarantee under this Article 10 upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between the Borrowers and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event
of Default. 
 (c) Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and
notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Article 10 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Article 10. 

(d) The Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended
or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 10 and all dealings between the Borrowers and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to
have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article 10. 
 (e) To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrowers or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. 

(f) Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this Article 10 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute
and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to 
 (i) the validity or enforceability of the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any Secured Party, 

  
 141 












 (ii) any defense, set-off or
counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrowers or any other Person against any Secured Party, 

(iii) any acts of any legislative body or Governmental Authority affecting the Borrowers, including but not limited to, any
restrictions on the conversion of currency or repatriation or control of funds or any total or partial expropriation of the Borrowers’ property, or by economic, political, regulatory or other events in the countries where the Borrowers are
located, or 
 (iv) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrowers or such
Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrowers for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. 

(g) When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Secured Party may, but
shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations
or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrowers, any other Guarantor
or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security or guarantee or right
of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Secured Parties against any Guarantor. For
the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 
 Section 10.06.
Waiver by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of the Secured Parties: any right to require any Secured Party, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to proceed against Borrowers, any other Guarantor
of the Obligations or any other Person, proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrowers, any such other Guarantor or any other Person, proceed against or have resort to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any
Secured Party in favor of Borrowers or any other Person, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrowers or
any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrowers or any
other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Obligations; any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome
than that of the principal; any defense based upon any Secured Party’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or
otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability
hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights of set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or
any property subject thereto; notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including the acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Secured Hedge Agreements or any
agreement or instrument related thereto, the Secured Cash Management Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Obligations or any


  
 142 












 
agreement related thereto, notices of extension of credit to Borrowers; (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate
Guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof, (h) any defenses arising from the amendment of waiver of any term of the Loan Documents; (i) any defenses arising from failure to perfect any security granted over the
Collateral or any release of security over the Collateral, (j) any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of the Loan Documents or the Obligations and (k) any other circumstances that might constitute a
defense to the Guarantor. 
 Section 10.07. Releases. At such time as the Obligations shall have been paid in full (other
than any contingent indemnification obligations not then due), the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding (except to the extent that the Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or otherwise
supported, in each case, on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Guarantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or
performance of any act by any party. At the request and sole expense of any Guarantor following any such termination, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to such Guarantor such documents as such Guarantor shall reasonably request to
evidence such termination. 
 (a) A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Guarantee of such
Guarantor shall automatically be released upon the consummation of any transaction or related series of transaction permitted hereunder if as a result thereof such Guarantor shall cease to be a Subsidiary (or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary). In
connection with any such release, the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any
execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.07(b) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent (other than as to the Administrative Agent’s
authority to execute and deliver such documents). 
 Section 10.08. Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness
of the Borrowers or any Guarantor held as of the Effective Date or thereafter by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, and any such indebtedness collected or received
by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for the Administrative Agent on behalf the Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof. 

Section 10.09. Authority of Guarantors or Borrowers. It shall not be necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or
powers of any Guarantor or Borrowers or the officers, directors or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. 

Section 10.10. Financial Condition of Borrowers. Any Credit Extension may be made to the Borrowers or continued from time to time,
without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrowers at the time of such grant or continuation. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its
assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of the Borrowers. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from the Borrowers on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Borrowers and its
ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Borrowers and all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the
Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of the Borrowers known as of the Effective Date or thereafter
known by any Beneficiary.

 Section 10.11. Taxes and Payments. The provisions of
Section 3.01(a)-(e) shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Guarantors and payments thereby. 

Section 10.12. Assignments. Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments, the Loans owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) and such assignee, transferee or
participant shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such party herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 11.06. No Guarantor shall have the right to
assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein except in accordance with Section 11.06. 
 Section 10.13.
Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that if (a) any payment made by the Borrowers or any other Person and applied to the Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or
preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or (b) the proceeds of Collateral are required to be returned by any Beneficiary to the Borrowers or its estate, trustee, receiver or any other Party including any Guarantor or its
estate, trustee, or receiver under any requirement of Law, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any such Guarantors liability hereunder shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If,
prior to any of the foregoing, the guarantee under this Article 10 shall have been cancelled or surrendered (and, if any Lien or other Collateral securing such Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by
virtue of such cancellation or surrender), the guarantee under this Article 10 (and such Lien or other Collateral) shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge,
impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Guarantor in respect of the amount of such payment (or any lien or other Collateral securing such obligation). 

Section 10.14. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in respect of Swap Contracts (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor
shall only be liable under this Section 10.14 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 10.14, or otherwise under
this Guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 10.14 shall remain
in full force and effect until the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments and all Letters of Credit have been terminated. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 10.14 constitute, and this
Section 10.14 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

 145 












 If any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with
respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrowers may replace each non-consenting Lender in accordance with

the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website
address therefor. 
 Each Lender agrees that notice to it specifying that any Borrower Materials or other notices or communications have
been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of such information, documents or other materials to such Lender for purposes of this Agreement; provided that if requested by any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall deliver
a copy of the Borrower Materials, notices or other communications to such Lender by email or fax. 
 (c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS

Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment; provided, however, that in no event shall the Agent Party have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender, L/C
Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the

entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice
specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative

 Section 11.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. None of the Secured Parties shall
by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 11.01), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of
Default. No failure by any Lender, L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof;
nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or
remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each
other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 Section 11.04.

related expenses (x) have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment,

Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceedings and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability, wrongdoing or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee.

to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 11.04 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer
or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such
Lender’s pro rata share (based on the Loans and unused Commitments held by such Lender relative to the total Loans and unused Commitments then outstanding) of such unpaid amount, provided, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified
loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or
against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this

 (c) Waiver of Consequential Damages,
Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers 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, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, 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 (b) 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 such damages result from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, in each case, as determined by the final nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

demand therefor. 
 (e) Survival. The agreements in this Section 11.04 shall survive the resignation of the
Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

Section 11.05. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrowers is made to the Administrative
Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent
or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made
or such setoff had not occurred, and each Lender and L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent,
plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 Section 11.06. Successors and Assigns. 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 no Loan Party may 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 to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the
provisions of Section 11.06(b), by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.06(d), or by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions
of Section 11.06(f). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to
the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (a) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments or Loans (including for purposes of this Section 11.06(b), participations in L/C Obligations and
Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it), provided, that: 
 (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the
principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade
Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of such “Trade Date”, shall not be less than $5,000,000; 

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned; and 
 (iii) the parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole
discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

For the avoidance of doubt, any assignment of Non-Extending Commitments or Loans with respect thereto shall continue
to constitute Non-Extending Commitments hereunder. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the
interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released
from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to
be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05 and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall
execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such
Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.06(d).

 (b) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses
of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding
notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and the L/C Issuer, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(c) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swingline 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers
shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without
the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in clauses (a), (b), (c), (f) and (g) of the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to
subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment; provided, further, that in the case of Section 3.01, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of such section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 10.07 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender. 

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, 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 U.S. 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. 

  
 152 












 (d) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, Section 3.04 or Section 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the
participation to such Participant is made with Holding’s prior written consent or such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. 

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

(f) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like
import in any Assignment and Acceptance 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 Electronic Signatures and
Records Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 (g) Resignation as L/C Issuer or
Swingline Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time a L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to
Section 11.06(b), such L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrowers, the other Lenders and other L/C Issuers, resign as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as
applicable, or (ii) upon 10 days’ notice to the Borrowers, the other Lenders and other L/C Issuers, appoint an Affiliate of such L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, as a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder. In the
event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders and their Affiliates a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender
hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrowers to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of such L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If any L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require
the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.04(d)). If any Swingline Lender resigns as a Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of a Swingline
Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding
Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swingline Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (b) 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 retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 

Section 11.07. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C
Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) on a need-to-know basis to its
Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, counsel, independent auditors, 

  
 153 












 
professionals and other experts, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information
and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (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, compulsory legal process or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies
hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially
the same as those of this Section 11.07 to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited
to be a Lender pursuant to Section 11.06, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (g) with the consent of
Holdings, (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.07, (i) to any rating agencies, or (j) any proxy relating to transactions contemplated
hereby. In addition, each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about the Facility to market data collectors, similar services providers to the lending industry,
and service providers to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers in connection with the administration and management of the Facility. 

For purposes of this Section 11.07, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers
or any of their Subsidiary relating to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential
basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, provided, that in the case of information received from the Borrowers or any such Subsidiary after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of
delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.07 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised
reasonable care to protect such Information, and in no event less than the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrowers or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public
information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

Section 11.08. Right of Setoff. Upon any amount becoming due and payable hereunder (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise), each Lender, each 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, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the
Borrowers or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not
such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such L/C Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on
such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, such L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section 11.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such
L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and L/C Issuer agrees to notify the Borrowers 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. 

  
 154 












 Section 11.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the
“Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal
parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 
 Section 11.10. Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single
contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents 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 4.01, 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 or of a Lender Addendum by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or electronic records, each
of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof 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 Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

Section 11.11. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan
Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the
Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default
at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

Section 11.12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations
to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  
 155 












 Section 11.13. Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.04, the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, any Lender is at such time
a Defaulting Lender or has given notice pursuant to Section 3.02 or any Lender becomes a Nonconsenting Lender (as hereinafter defined), then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender
and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to (and such Lender shall) assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.06),
all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee selected by the Borrowers that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment),
provided, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee specified in Section 11.06(b); (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of
its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent
of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
(v) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be obligated to be or to find the assignee. 
 A Lender shall not be required
to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (x) the
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto and (y) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or
amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Nonconsenting Lender.” Any such replacement shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights that the Borrowers shall have against the
replaced Lender. 
 Section 11.14. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(a) SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE
JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR
RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD
AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE
ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST THE BORROWERS OR ANY OTHER LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION. 

  
 156 












 (b) WAIVER OF VENUE. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE
FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN
PARAGRAPH (B) OF THIS SECTION. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT. 

(c) SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION
12.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 

Section 11.15. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT
OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

Section 11.16. Designation of Secured Hedge Agreements. The Borrowers and any Hedge Bank may from time to time designate a
Swap Contract permitted hereunder as a Secured Hedge Agreement upon written notice (a “Designation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers and such Hedge Bank, in form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, which Designation Notice shall include a description of such Secured Hedge Agreement and the maximum amount of obligations thereunder which are to constitute Obligations (each, a “Designated Amount”);
provided that (x) no such Designated Amount with respect to any Secured Hedge Agreement shall constitute Obligations to the extent that, at the time of delivery of the applicable Designation Notice and after giving effect to such
Designated Amount (including any Hedging Reserves to be established by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith), Availability would be less than zero and (y) any such Designated Amount shall constitute Obligations only to the extent
that such Designated Amount, together with all other Designated Amounts under Secured Hedge Agreements theretofore designated hereunder and constituting Obligations, does not exceed $25,000,000 at the time of delivery of the applicable Designation
Notice. 
 (a) The Borrowers and any Hedge Bank may increase, decrease or terminate any Designated Amount in respect of such Secured Hedge
Agreement upon written notice to the Administrative Agent; provided that any increase in a Designated Amount shall be deemed to be a new designation of a Designated Amount pursuant to a new Designation Notice and shall be subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 11.16(a). No obligations under any Secured Hedge Agreement in excess of the applicable Designated Amount shall constitute Obligations hereunder or the other Loan Documents. 

  
 157 












 (b) No Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03,
Article 10, or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. The Administrative
Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such
Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Hedge Bank. 

Section 11.17. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby
(including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this
Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and any Arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and
the Administrative Agent and any Arranger, on the other hand, (B) the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate by such Loan Parties, and
(C) the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent
and any Arranger 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 Borrowers, the other Loan
Parties, their respective Affiliates or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties or any of its 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 and any Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that
involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrowers or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, the Borrowers and each other Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and any Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection
with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 
 Section 11.18. Joint and Several Liability. All Loans, upon funding,
shall be deemed to be jointly funded to and received by the Borrowers. Each Borrower is jointly and severally liable under this Agreement for all Obligations, regardless of the manner or amount in which proceeds of Loans are used, allocated, shared
or disbursed by or among the Borrowers themselves, or the manner in which the Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer accounts for such Loans or other Credit Extensions on its books and records. Each Borrower shall be liable for all
amounts due to the Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer from the Borrowers under this Agreement, regardless of which Borrower actually receives Loans or other Credit Extensions hereunder or the amount of such Loans and Credit
Extensions received or the manner in which the Administrative Agent, such Lender and/or such L/C Issuer accounts for such Loans or other Credit Extensions on its books and records. Each Borrower’s Obligations with respect to Loans and other
Credit Extensions made to it, and such Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of such Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans made to the other Borrowers hereunder shall be separate and distinct
obligations, but all such Obligations shall be primary obligations of such Borrower. The Borrowers acknowledge and expressly agree with the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer that the joint and several liability of each Borrower
is required solely as a condition to, and is given solely as inducement for and in consideration of, credit or accommodations extended or to be extended under the Loan Documents to any or all of the other Borrowers


  
 158 












 
and is not required or given as a condition of Credit Extensions to such Borrower. Each Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be
unconditional irrespective of (i) the release of any other Borrower pursuant to Section 9.12 or the validity or enforceability, avoidance, or subordination of the Obligations of any other Borrower or of any promissory note or other
document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of any other Borrower, (ii) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from any other Borrower, or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the
same, (iii) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance, release, or granting of any indulgence by the Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of any
other Borrower, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by any other Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer, (iv) the failure by the Administrative Agent, any Lender
and/or any L/C Issuer to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral for the Obligations of any other Borrower, (v) the Administrative Agent’s, any Lender’s
and/or any L/C Issuer’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code, (vii) the disallowance of all or any portion of the Administrative Agent’s, any Lender’s
and/or any L/C Issuer’s claim(s) for the repayment of the Obligations of any other Borrower under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (viii) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense
of a guarantor or of any other Borrower. With respect to any Borrower’s Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder with respect to Loans or other Credit Extensions made to any of the other
Borrowers hereunder, such Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which the Administrative Agent, any Lender
and/or any L/C Issuer now has or may hereafter have against any other Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Obligations, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the
Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer to secure payment of the Obligations or any other liability of any Borrower to the Administrative Agent, any Lender and/or any L/C Issuer. Upon any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may
proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against any other Borrower or any other Person, or against any security or
collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the foregoing, any Person released from its Obligations in accordance with Section 9.12 shall be simultaneously released from the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.23. 

Section 11.19. Contribution and Indemnification Among the Borrowers. Each Borrower is obligated to repay the Obligations as a
joint and several obligor under this Agreement. To the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, sell any of its assets to satisfy or otherwise repay any of the Obligations constituting Loans made to
another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then the Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and
indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers, in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, if any, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s
Allocable Amount (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum
amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2
of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of
Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, 

  
 159 












 
Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy
Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this Section shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Obligations.
The provisions of this Section 11.19 shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision in any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision. If any Borrower discharges the Obligation (or any part of it) pursuant to
Section 11.18, the corresponding claim against the relevant Loan Party shall not pass over and no rights and claims of the Secured Parties under any Loan Document shall pass to any Loan Party by subrogation or otherwise.

 (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an
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

 160 












 (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 any applicable Resolution Authority. 

Section 11.24. Terms of ABL Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender understands, acknowledges and agrees that Liens shall be created
on the Collateral pursuant to the ABL Loan Documents, which Liens shall be subject to terms, conditions and priorities set forth in the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement, in the event of any
conflict between the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, the provisions of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. Each Lender authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral
Agent to enter into the ABL Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of the Lenders, and to take all actions (and execute all documents) required (or deemed advisable) by it in accordance with the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement. 

Section 11.25. No Novation. This Agreement is not intended to constitute, and does not constitute, a novation of the obligations
and liabilities under the Existing Credit Agreement (including the Obligations) or to evidence payment of all or any portion of such obligations and liabilities. 

Section 11.26. Reaffirmation. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, (i) the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit
Agreement shall be and hereby are amended and restated in their entirety by the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, and the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall
be superseded by this Agreement and (ii) all of the “Obligations” under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, interest and fees accrued prior to the Effective Date, none of which shall be
altered by the terms of this Agreement with respect to any period preceding the Effective Date) (collectively, the “Original Obligations”) shall continue to be in full force and effect, but shall be governed by, and become due and
payable pursuant to, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Original Obligations, together with any and all additional Obligations incurred by Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, shall continue to be
secured by all of the pledges and grants of security interests provided in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement (and, from and after the Effective Date, shall also be secured by all of the pledges and grants of security interests provided
in connection with this Agreement), all as more specifically set forth in the Collateral Documents. Each Borrower and each Guarantor hereby reaffirms its obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and each other “Loan Document”, as
defined in the Existing Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Original Loan Documents”) to which it is party, as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified by this Agreement and by the other Loan
Documents delivered on the Effective Date and hereafter. Each Borrower further agrees that each Original Loan Document shall remain in full force and effect following the execution and delivery of this Agreement (except to the extent modified or
replaced by this Agreement or any Loan Document delivered on the Effective Date) and that all references to the “Credit Agreement” in the Original Loan Documents shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to
constitute, and does not constitute, a novation of the Original Obligations or to evidence payment of all or any portion of such Original Obligations.

 Section 11.27. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that
the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge 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. 

(b) As used in this Section 11.27, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C.
1841(k)) of such party. 
 “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in,
and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined
in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). 
 “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall
be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 
 “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the
term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).
