CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), HESS OVERSEAS FINANCE INVESTMENTS CENTRE LIMITED, a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability (the “Borrowing Subsidiary” and, together
with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the LENDERS party hereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as administrative agent. 

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of April 18, 2019 (the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as amended
hereby, the “Amended Credit Agreement”; the Existing Credit Agreement and the Amended Credit Agreement are referred to, collectively, as the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, the Borrowing Subsidiary, the
Lenders party thereto (the “Existing Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement have the meanings specified in the Amended Credit Agreement
or, where the context so requires, the Existing Credit Agreement. 
 The Borrowers have requested that (a) the Maturity Date be
extended from May 15, 2023 to May 15, 2024 and (b) the Existing Credit Agreement be amended to effect certain other amendments set forth herein, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto have agreed to such extension
and such other amendments, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 
 Each Existing Lender and any other
Person, in each case, whose name is set forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto (such Persons that are not Existing Lenders being referred to as “New Lenders”; such Existing Lenders and the New Lenders being collectively referred to as the
“Extending Lenders”; and any Existing Lender that is not an Extending Lender being referred to as a “Non-Extending Lender”) has agreed to provide a Commitment on the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below) in an
amount set forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto opposite its name, in each case, on the terms set forth herein and in the Amended Credit Agreement and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Citibank, N.A., Mizuho Bank, Ltd., MUFG Bank, Ltd., Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and
Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. have been appointed as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (in such capacities, the “Arrangers”). 

Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt
of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. Revolving Credit Facility. 

(a) Commitments. On the terms set forth herein and in the Amended Credit Agreement and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the
Company and each Extending Lender agree that, on and as of the Amendment Effective Date, each Extending Lender shall have a Commitment under the Amended Credit Agreement in the amount set forth opposite its













 
name on Schedule 2.01 hereto, it being understood and agreed that to the extent the Commitment of any Extending Lender as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the provisions of
this Section 1(a) (collectively, the “Existing Commitments”) (including, in the case of any New Lender or any Increasing Lender (as defined below), any portion of its Existing Commitment deemed to have been assumed by it
pursuant to Section 1(b) below) exceeds the amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule 2.01 hereto, the Existing Commitment of such Extending Lender shall be deemed to have been reduced to equal the amount set forth opposite its name on
Schedule 2.01 hereto. 
 (b) Concerning Non-Consenting Lenders. The parties hereto agree that (i) each New Lender and
(ii) each Extending Lender that is an Existing Lender and whose Commitment, as set forth opposite its name on Schedule 2.01 hereto, exceeds the amount of its Existing Commitment as in effect immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date
(each such Existing Lender being referred to as an “Increasing Lender”) shall be deemed to have assumed, and the Non-Extending Lenders shall be deemed to have assigned and delegated, in each case, without recourse and effective on
the Amendment Effective Date, the entire amount of the Existing Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders, such assumption, assignment and delegation deemed to be made, as to the Existing Commitment of any Non-Extending Lender, ratably as among the
New Lenders and the Increasing Lenders based on the percentage that the Commitment, as set forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto, of each New Lender or each Increasing Lender, as the case may be, represents of the aggregate amount of the Commitments, as set
forth on Schedule 2.01 hereto, of all the New Lenders and all the Increasing Lenders. To the extent their consent is required under the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to such assumption, assignment and delegation, each of the Company, the
Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender hereby consent thereto. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the assumptions, assignments and delegations set forth in this Section 1(b) shall be deemed to have been
effected pursuant to Section 2.19(b) of the Credit Agreement, and that this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute, for purposes of the last sentence of Section 2.19(b) of the Credit Agreement, an Assignment and Acceptance referred to
therein, and that, in accordance with the last sentence of Section 2.19(b) of the Credit Agreement, no Non-Extending Lender need to be a party hereto in order to effectuate the assumptions, assignments and delegations set forth in this
Section 1(b). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, on and as of the Amendment Effective Date, immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by Section 1(a) above and this
Section 1(b), Schedule 2.01 hereto sets forth all the Commitments of all the Lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement (and no Person whose name does not appear on Schedule 2.01 hereto shall have, or shall be deemed to have, on and
as of the Amendment Effective Date, a Commitment or shall be a Lender). 
 SECTION 2. Amendment. Effective as of the Amendment
Effective Date: 
 (a) the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the language indicated in single or double underlined
text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following examples: single-underlined text or double-underlined text) in Annex I hereto and by deleting the language indicated by strikethrough text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) in Annex I hereto;

 (b) each of Schedules 2.01, 2.05, 2.06A, 3.10 and 6.01 to the Existing Credit Agreement is

Company hereby ratifies and reaffirms its Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations (including any Guaranteed Obligations in respect of the Commitments (and all Revolving Credit Exposure thereunder)) pursuant to Article IX of the Credit Agreement
and confirms that such Guarantee continues to have full force and effect, in each case after giving effect to this Agreement and the amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement effected by this Agreement. 

SECTION 5. Effect of Amendment.

Existing Credit Agreement as amended by this Agreement. 

  
 4 













 (b) The Credit Agreement, as amended by this Agreement, is and shall continue to be in full
force and effect and is hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed. Except as expressly set forth herein and in the Amended Credit Agreement, this Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise
affect the rights and remedies of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms,
conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to
entitle the Company or any other Borrower (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. This Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(including deliveries by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), 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. 
 SECTION 7. No Novation. The
Borrowers have requested, and the Lenders party hereto have agreed, that the Existing Credit Agreement be, effective from the Amendment Effective Date, amended as set forth herein. Such amendment shall not constitute a novation of any Indebtedness
or other Obligations owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not
affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

 SECTION 1.05. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification.
The interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain
short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the
ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the ICE Benchmark Administration, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the
London interbank offered rate may no longer be available 

  
 32 













 
or may no longer be deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry
initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 2.14(b) provides the mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company, pursuant to Section 2.14(b), of any
changes to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration,
submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without
limitation, (a) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.14(b), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (b) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.14(b)), including, without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any
such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate prior to its
discontinuance or unavailability. 
 SECTION 1.06. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with
any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws) (each, a “Division”): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person (each, a “Dividing
Person”) becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such
new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 

SECTION 1.07. Blocking Regulation. In relation to any Lender that is subject to the regulations referred to below (each, a
“Restricted Lender”), any representation, warranty or covenant set forth herein that refers to Sanctions (each, a “Specified Provision”) shall only apply for the benefit of such Restricted Lender to the extent that
such Specified Provision would not result in a violation of, conflict with or liability under Council Regulation (EC) 2271/96 (or any law implementing such regulation in any member state of the European Union), as amended, or any similar blocking or
anti-boycott law in Germany (including, in the case of Germany, section 7 foreign trade rules (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung – AWV) in connection with section 4 paragraph 1 foreign trade law (Außenwirtschaftsgesetz –
AWG)) or in the United Kingdom (the “Mandatory Restrictions”). In the event of any consent or direction by Lenders in respect of any Specified Provision of which a Restricted Lender does not have the benefit due to a
Mandatory Restriction, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the definition of Required Lenders, for so long as such Restricted Lender shall be subject to a Mandatory Restriction, the Commitment, the Revolving Credit Exposure and the
Competitive Loans of such Restricted Lender will be disregarded for the purpose of determining whether the requisite consent of the Lenders has been obtained or direction by the requisite Lenders has been made, it being agreed, however, that,
unless, in connection with any such determination, the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from any Lender stating that such Lender is a Restricted Lender with respect thereto, each Lender shall be presumed, in connection with
such determination, not to be a Restricted Lender.

shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the

herewith and shall be denominated in dollars and (iii) each Swingline Loan shall be denominated in dollars. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan;
provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is
an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; provided that a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to
such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate
amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e). Each Competitive Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount
that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided that a Swingline Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that


  
 34 













 
is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e). Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time;
provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 10 (or such greater number as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) outstanding Eurodollar Revolving Borrowings.

otherwise of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be

 SECTION 2.04. Bid Procedure for Competitive Loans. (a) Subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Availability Period any Borrower may request Competitive Bids in dollars and may (but shall not have any obligation to) accept Competitive Bids and borrow Competitive Loans;

Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Lender must be in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and must be received in writing by the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Competitive Borrowing, not later than
9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing.

 36 













 
rejected by the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Lender of such rejection as promptly as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall specify (i) the
principal amount (which shall be a minimum of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and which may equal the entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing requested by the applicable Borrower) of the Competitive Loan or Loans that

later than 11:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing; provided that (i) the failure of the applicable Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of each Competitive Bid,
(ii) except to the extent necessary to comply with clause (y) of Section 2.04(a), a Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if such Borrower rejects a Competitive Bid made at a lower
Competitive Bid Rate, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by a Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the requested Competitive Borrowing specified in the related Competitive Bid Request, (iv) to the
extent necessary to comply with clause (iii) of this proviso, a Borrower may accept Competitive Bids at the same Competitive Bid Rate in part, which acceptance, in the case of multiple Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be

to integral multiples of $1,000,000 in a manner determined by the applicable Borrower. A notice given by a Borrower pursuant to this paragraph shall be irrevocable. 

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender in writing whether or not its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and, if
so, the amount and Competitive Bid Rate so accepted), and each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its Competitive Bid has been accepted. 

  
 37 













 (f) If the Administrative Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a
Lender, it shall submit such Competitive Bid directly to the applicable Borrower at least one quarter of an hour earlier than the time by which the other Lenders are required to submit their Competitive Bids to the Administrative Agent pursuant to

 (g) The Borrowers agree that, no later than five Business Days prior to making any Competitive Bid
Request, they will consult with the Administrative Agent with respect to such request.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans in dollars to the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal
amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $400,000,000, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans of any Swingline Lender
exceeding the Swingline Commitment of such Swingline Lender, (iii) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender exceeding its Commitment, (iv) the Aggregate Exposure exceeding the Aggregate Commitment or (v) in the case of any

Existing Maturity Date and the Competitive Loans maturing after such Existing Maturity Date exceeding the sum of the Commitments that shall have been extended to a date after the latest maturity date of such Swingline Loans and such Competitive
Loans and the latest expiration date of such Letters of Credit; provided that no Swingline Lender shall be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. The failure of any Swingline Lender to make any Swingline Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Swingline Lender of its obligations
hereunder; provided that the Swingline Commitments of the Swingline Lenders are several and no Swingline Lender shall be responsible for any other Swingline Lender’s failure to make Swingline Loans as required. 

(b) To request a Swingline Borrowing, the applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the
Administrative Agent and each applicable Swingline Lender of such request by telephone not later than 2:30 p.m., New York City time, on the day of the proposed Swingline Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be confirmed promptly
by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request signed by the applicable Borrower or by the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall

identity of the Issuing Bank that has made such LC Disbursement. Promptly following the receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Swingline Lender of the details thereof and
of the amount of such Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loan to be made as part of the requested Swingline 

  
 38 













 
Borrowing. Each Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan to be made by it hereunder available to the applicable Borrower by means of a wire transfer to the account specified in such
Borrowing Request or to the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. 

(c) Any Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire
participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the outstanding Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of the Swingline Loans made by such Swingline Lender in which Lenders will be
required to participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby
absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay, upon receipt of notice as provided above (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business
Day, and if received after 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Swingline Lender,

the representation and warranty of the Borrowers deemed made pursuant to Section 4.02. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement,
withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender
(and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Swingline Lender the amounts so received
by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the
Administrative Agent and not to the applicable Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by any Swingline Lender from the Borrowers (or other Persons on behalf of the applicable Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline
Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall
have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to such Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as
applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the
applicable Borrower of its obligations to repay such Swingline Loan. 

  
 39 













 (d) From time to time, the Company may by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
designate as additional Swingline Lenders one or more Lenders or any Affiliate of any Lender that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender or such Affiliate of any appointment as a Swingline Lender hereunder
shall be evidenced by a written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent and such accepting Lender or Affiliate, which shall set forth the Swingline Commitment of such Lender or Affiliate, and, from and after the effective date of such
agreement, (i) such Lender or Affiliate shall have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term
“Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to include such Lender or Affiliate in its capacity as a Swingline Lender. 
 SECTION 2.06.
Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each of the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries, at its option, may request, as the applicant thereof for the support of the
obligations of the Company or its Subsidiaries, any Issuing Bank to issue for the account of the Company or the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary, as the case may be, Letters of Credit denominated in dollars, in form and on terms reasonably acceptable
to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the LC Availability Period, or to amend or extend any Letter of Credit previously issued. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to, or entered into by such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with, any Issuing Bank relating to any
Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank will only be of a type approved for issuance hereunder by such Issuing Bank (it being understood and agreed that standby Letters
of Credit shall be deemed of the type that is approved), and issuance, amendment and extension of Letters of Credit shall be subject to its customary policies and procedures in effect from time to time relating to letters of credit. An Issuing Bank
shall not be under any obligation to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing, amending
or extending such Letter of Credit, or any law, rule, regulation or orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request, rule, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental
Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect
to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or
expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement (including paragraphs (d) and (e) of
this Section), to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Company. 
 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment or
Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit (other than an automatic extension permitted under this paragraph)), the Company or the applicable
Borrowing Subsidiary shall deliver to an Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, no later than the applicable LC Notice Time, (i) a completed written Notice of LC Request requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the
Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business 

  
 40 













 
Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the
beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend or extend such Letter of Credit and (ii) unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank, a completed and executed letter of credit application on
such Issuing Bank’s standard form. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon each issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after
giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension, (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed $2,000,000,000, (ii) the portion of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed the LC
Commitment of such Issuing Bank (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank), (iii) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed the Commitment of such Lender, (iv) the Aggregate Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate
Commitment and (v) in the case of any extension of any Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.09(d), the sum of the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit expiring after any Existing Maturity Date, the Competitive Loans maturing after
such Existing Maturity Date and the Swingline Exposure attributable to Swingline Loans maturing after such Existing Maturity Date shall not exceed the sum of the Commitments that shall have been extended to a date after the latest expiration date of
such Letters of Credit and the latest maturity date of such Competitive Loans and such Swingline Loans. A Letter of Credit shall not be issued or extended (other than any extension pursuant to automatic extension provisions thereof after the date on
which the applicable Issuing Bank ceases to have the right to prevent such extension), or amended to increase the stated amount thereof or extend the expiration date thereof, if the Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof shall have received written
notice from the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Company, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance, extension or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit (or, in the case of an automatic extension, at
least one Business Day prior to the time by which election not to extend must be made by the applicable Issuing Bank), that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.02 shall not be satisfied. Each Issuing Bank (other than the
Issuing Bank that also serves as the Administrative Agent) shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of each issuance, amendment, extension or expiry of, and of each drawing under, each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, and shall
provide to the Administrative Agent such information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Without limiting the foregoing, each Issuing Bank shall deliver a Notice of LC
Activity to the Administrative Agent (other than any Issuing Bank that is, or that is an Affiliate of, the Administrative Agent) and the Company within one Business Day of the issuance, amendment, extension or expiry of, and of each drawing under, a
Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. Such Notice of LC Activity shall include, to the extent applicable, (A) a copy of the applicable Letter of Credit (or, if applicable, any amendment thereof), (B) information with respect to the
stated amount, beneficiary and expiration date of such Letter of Credit and (C) information with respect to the amendment, extension or expiry of, or drawing under, such Letter of Credit. 

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date that is five Business Days
prior to the Maturity Date. 

  
 41 













 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a
Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank that is the issuer thereof hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from
such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the
applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason, including after any Maturity Date. Each Lender acknowledges and
agrees that (i) its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of
any Letter of Credit, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or any reduction or termination of the Commitments, or any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is
subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) or similar terms of the Letter of Credit itself permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration
thereof or of any Commitments, and (ii) each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending or extending any Letter of
Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representation and warranty of the Borrowers deemed made pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or 4.02. 

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, not later than the next Business Day following the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if
such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, or, if such notice has not been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not
later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the date on which such Borrower receives such notice by such time; provided that such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein,
request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or a Swingline Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent such Issuing Bank shall have received the proceeds thereof as
contemplated by Section 2.07(a), such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when
due, the applicable Issuing Bank shall give prompt notice and details thereof to the Administrative Agent, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in
respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on such Business Day, and if received after 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent
its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from such Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment
obligations of the Lenders 

  
 42 













 
pursuant to this paragraph), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the
Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding
of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

(f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this
Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (iv) any force majeure or
other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) or similar terms of the Letter of
Credit itself permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of any Commitments or (v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might,
but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, or any of
their respective Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the
circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document
required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not
be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the
extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
The parties hereto expressly agree that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
non-appealable judgment), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree
that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank that is the issuer of such Letter of
Credit shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of such Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing
Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone, fax or email (and, in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed by fax or email) of such demand for payment and whether such
Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect
to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable
Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such
Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement in full, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if such Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section,
then Section 2.13(e) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender
pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the
applicable Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full. 
 (i) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Company receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater than 50%
of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Issuing Banks
and the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall
become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Company described in clause (g) or (h) of Article VII. The Borrowers also shall deposit
cash collateral in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.21. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Company and the
Borrowing Subsidiaries under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which
investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the risk and expense of the Borrowers, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such
account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank for 

  
 44 













 
LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of
the reimbursement obligations of the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to (i) the consent of Lenders with LC Exposures representing greater
than 50% of the total LC Exposure and (ii) in the case of any such application at a time when any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (but only if, after giving effect thereto, the remaining cash collateral shall be less than the aggregate LC
Exposure of all the Defaulting Lenders), the consent of each Issuing Bank), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries under this Agreement. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash
collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the
Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers to the extent that, after giving effect to such
return, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the Aggregate Commitment and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to
Section 2.21, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers as promptly as practicable to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any
outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or the remaining cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(j) Replacement of Issuing Banks. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced with any Lender (or any Affiliate thereof) at any time by written
agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank, and consented to by the replaced Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably delayed or withheld), which agreement shall set forth the LC Commitment of the
successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the
replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing
Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall, unless otherwise provided in such written agreement, remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and, if
any Letters of Credit issued by it shall continue to be outstanding, the obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional
Letters of Credit. 
 (k) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Company may by notice to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Lenders (or any Affiliate of any such Lender as agreed between such Lender and the Company) that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender or
such Lender’s Affiliate of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by a written agreement among the Company, the Administrative Agent and such accepting Lender or 

  
 45 













 
its Affiliate, as the case may be, which shall set forth the LC Commitment of such Lender or its Affiliate, as the case may be, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement,
(i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed
to include such Lender or its Affiliate in its capacity as an Issuing Bank. 
 (l) LC Exposure Determination. For all purposes of this
Agreement, (i) the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such
Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases (other than any such increase consisting of the reinstatement of an amount previously drawn thereunder and reimbursed), whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of
determination, and (ii) if on any date of determination a Letter of Credit has expired by its terms but any amount may still be drawn thereunder by reason of the operation of Article 29(a) of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary
Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the applicable time) or Rule 3.13 or Rule 3.14 of the ISP or similar terms of the Letter of Credit itself, or if compliant
documents have been presented but not yet honored, such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be “outstanding” and “undrawn” in the amount so remaining available to be paid, and the obligations of the Borrowers and each Lender
hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit. 

(m) Letters of Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that any Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder
supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the Company (other than a Subsidiary that itself is a Borrower), or states that a Subsidiary of the Company (other than a Subsidiary that itself is a Borrower) is the
“account party”, “applicant”, “customer”, “instructing party” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at
law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to
reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Borrower and (ii) irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of
any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. Each of the Borrowers hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for any of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that
such Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of its Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION 2.07. Funding of
Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for
such purpose by notice to the Lenders, such transfers to be made by (i) 12:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case of Borrowings other than ABR Borrowings or Fixed Rate Borrowings and (ii) 3:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case
of ABR Borrowings or Fixed Rate Borrowings, in each case on the date such Loan is made; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. 

  
 46 













 
The Administrative Agent will make such amounts available to the applicable Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by
such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or Competitive Bid Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to refinance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the
Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank specified by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request. 
 (b) Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any 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 paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a
Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such
Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate
applicable to ABR Revolving Loans. If any Borrower and such Lender shall both pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such
interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by any Borrower shall be without prejudice
to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION
2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as is
specified in such Borrowing Request or as is otherwise provided in Section 2.03. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar
Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be
allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings,
which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower, or the Company on its behalf, shall
notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made
on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by the applicable Borrower or by the Company on
its behalf. 

  
 47 













 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election
Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses
(iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made
pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be
an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the
Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to
have selected an Interest Period of one week’s duration (if generally available) or otherwise of one month’s duration. 
 (d)
Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If a Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Revolving Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an
Event of Default under clause (g) or (h) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Company, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required
Lenders, so notifies the Company of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be
converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Revolving Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

SECTION 2.09. Termination, Reduction, Extension and Increase of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the
Commitments and the Swingline Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Maturity Date and (ii) the LC Commitments shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (x) the termination of the Commitments and (y) the last
day of the LC Availability Period. 

  
 48 













 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the aggregate amount
of the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (A) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed its Commitment or (B) the Aggregate Exposure would exceed the
Aggregate Commitment. 
 (c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under
paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative
Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such
notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or any other event specified in such notice, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date), if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 

(d) (i) The Company may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) given not less
than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date at any time in effect, request that the Lenders extend the Maturity Date for an additional one-year period (a “Maturity Extension Request”);
provided that there shall not be more than two extensions of the Maturity Date under this paragraph after the Amendment Effective Date and not more than one extension of the Maturity Date in any calendar year. Each Lender shall, by notice to
the Company and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 20th day after the date of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the applicable Maturity Extension Request, advise the Company whether or not it agrees to the requested extension
(each Lender agreeing to a requested extension being called a “Consenting Lender” and each Lender declining to agree to a requested extension being called a “Declining Lender”). Any Lender that has not so advised
the Company and the Administrative Agent by such day shall be deemed to have declined to agree to such extension and shall be a Declining Lender. If Lenders constituting the Required Lenders shall have agreed to a Maturity Extension Request, then
the Maturity Date shall, as to the Consenting Lenders, be extended by one year to the anniversary of the Maturity Date theretofore in effect. The decision to agree or withhold agreement to any Maturity Extension Request shall be at the sole
discretion of each Lender. The Commitment of each Declining Lender shall terminate on the Maturity Date in effect prior to giving effect to any such extension (such Maturity Date being called the “Existing Maturity Date”). The
principal amount of any outstanding Revolving Loans made by Declining Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the account of such Declining Lenders hereunder, shall be due and
payable on the Existing Maturity Date, and on the Existing Maturity Date the Borrowers shall also make such other prepayments of their respective Loans pursuant to Section 2.11 as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the
termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, Declining Lenders pursuant to this sentence, (i) no Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed such Lender’s Commitment and (ii) the Aggregate Exposure shall not


  
 49 













 
exceed the Aggregate Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) no extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received documents consistent with those delivered under Sections 4.01(b) through 4.01(d), and documents consistent with those delivered with respect to each Borrowing Subsidiary under Section 4.03(b), giving effect to such extension,
and (B) the Maturity Date, the Availability Period and the LC Availability Period, as such terms are used in reference to any Issuing Bank or any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank or in reference to any Swingline Lender or any
Swingline Loans, may not be extended with respect to any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any
Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall not have consented to any such extension, (1) such Issuing Bank shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank hereunder, and such Swingline Lender shall
continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender hereunder, in each case through the applicable Existing Maturity Date (or the Availability Period or the LC Availability Period determined on the basis thereof, as applicable),
and thereafter shall have no obligation to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit or to make any Swingline Loan, as applicable (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.15, 2.17, 10.03 and 10.09 as to
Letters of Credit issued or Swingline Loans made prior to such time), and (2) the Borrowers shall cause the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank to be zero no later than the day on which such LC Exposure
would have been required to have been reduced to zero in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to the effectiveness of the extension of the applicable Existing Maturity Date pursuant to this paragraph (and, in any event, no later
than such Existing Maturity Date) and shall repay the principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans, together with any accrued interest thereon, on the Existing Maturity Date). In connection with any extension of a Maturity Date under this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent and the Company may, without the consent of any Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative
Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this paragraph. 
 (e) The Company may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the
Administrative Agent, executed by the Company and one or more Persons that are Eligible Assignees (any such Persons being called an “Increasing Lender”), which may include any Lender, cause new Commitments to be extended by the
Increasing Lenders or cause the existing Commitments of the Increasing Lenders to be increased, as the case may be (any such extension or increase, a “Commitment Increase”), in an amount for each Increasing Lender set forth in such
notice; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of all Commitment Increases effected pursuant to this paragraph shall not exceed $1,000,000,000, (ii) each Increasing Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the
approval of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender (which in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (iii) each Increasing Lender and the Borrowers shall execute and deliver an Incremental
Facility Agreement and (iv) no Lender shall be required to participate in any Commitment Increase. On the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) of any Commitment Increase, (A) the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Loans outstanding (the “Outstanding Loans”) immediately prior to giving effect to such Commitment Increase on the Increase Effective Date shall be deemed to be paid; (B) each Increasing Lender that shall have been a
Lender prior to such Commitment Increase shall pay to the Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount equal to the difference 

  
 50 













 
between (x) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the amount of the Subsequent
Borrowings (as hereinafter defined) and (y) the product of (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the amount of the Outstanding Loans;
(C) each Increasing Lender that shall not have been a Lender prior to such Commitment Increase shall pay to the Administrative Agent in same day funds an amount equal to the product of (x) such Increasing Lender’s Applicable
Percentage (calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (y) the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings; (D) after the Administrative Agent receives the funds specified in clauses (B) and (C) above, the
Administrative Agent shall pay to each Non-Increasing Lender the portion of such funds that is equal to the difference between (x) the product of (1) such
Non-Increasing Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated without giving effect to such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the amount of the Outstanding Loans, and (y) the product of
(1) such Non-Increasing Lender’s Applicable Percentage (calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) multiplied by (2) the amount of the Subsequent Borrowings; (E) after the
effectiveness of the Commitment Increase, each Borrower shall be deemed to have made new Borrowings (the “Subsequent Borrowings”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Loans
attributable to Revolving Loans of such Borrower and of the Types and for the Interest Periods specified in the Borrowing Request delivered in accordance with Section 2.03; (F) each Non-Increasing
Lender and each Increasing Lender shall be deemed to hold its Applicable Percentage of each Subsequent Borrowing (each calculated after giving effect to such Commitment Increase); and (G) the applicable Borrowers shall pay to each Increasing
Lender and each Non-Increasing Lender any and all accrued but unpaid interest on the Outstanding Loans. The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (A) above in respect of each Eurodollar Revolving Loan
shall be subject to indemnification by the applicable Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the Increase Effective Date occurs other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no Commitment Increase shall become effective under this paragraph unless (I) on the Increase Effective Date, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such
paragraphs to a Credit Event being deemed to be references to such increase or addition) and (II) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered under Sections 4.01(b) through 4.01(d) and documents
consistent with those delivered with respect to each Borrowing Subsidiary under Section 4.03(b), giving effect to such increase or addition. 

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to
the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender made to such Borrower on the Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Loan, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for
the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan made by such Lender to such Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan and (iii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made by such Swingline Lender on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date that is the seventh day after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date
that a Revolving Borrowing or Competitive Borrowing is made, the Borrowers shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such Borrowing shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to prepay all Swingline Loans then
outstanding on a pro rata basis. 

  
 51 













 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender to each such Borrower, including the Class and Type thereof and the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender by
each such Borrower from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the
amount of each Loan made to each Borrower hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to
each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall, absent manifest error, be
prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans or pay any other amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e)
Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a nonnegotiable promissory note substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B (a
“Note”) payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment
pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the payee named therein (or, if such Note is a registered Note, to such payee and its permitted registered assigns). 

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any
Borrowing made by it in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that the Borrowers shall not have the right to prepay any Competitive Loan without the prior consent of the
Lender thereof; provided further that each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. 

(b) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a prepayment of a Swingline Borrowing, each applicable Swingline
Lender) by telephone (confirmed in writing) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of
prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 2:30 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline
Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid;
provided that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or any other event specified in such notice, in which case such notice may be


  
 52 













 
revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent prior to such specified prepayment time) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating
to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same
Class and Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by
Section 2.13. 
 SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the Amendment Effective
Date to but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates; provided that if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure after its Commitment terminates, then the Facility Fee shall continue to accrue on the daily
amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. Accrued Facility Fees shall be payable
in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Amendment Effective Date; provided that any Facility Fees
accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day
but excluding the last day). 
 (b) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (i) for the account of each Lender a
participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower (an “LC Participation Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine interest on Eurodollar
Revolving Loans on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and
including the Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) for the account of each Issuing Bank, a
fronting fee (a “Fronting Fee”), which shall accrue at a rate equal to 0.15% per annum (or, with respect to any Issuing Bank, such lesser amount as may be agreed between such Issuing Bank and the Company) and be payable on the
aggregate face amount outstanding of the LC Exposure attributable to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the account of such Borrower (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period
from and including the Amendment Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any such LC Exposure, as well as, to each Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank’s
standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and
December of each year shall be payable on the 15th day of the month following such last day (or, if such 15th day is not a Business
Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), commencing on the first such date to occur after the Amendment Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the 


  
 53 













 
Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph
shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day). 
 (c) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders, for their own accounts, fees
payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and such other parties. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder
shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to an Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of Facility Fees and LC Participation Fees, to the Lenders. Absent
manifest error, fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
 (e) Within 10 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the
Company (commencing with the first fiscal quarter ending after the Amendment Effective Date), the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Company a schedule (i) stating the aggregate amount of LC Participation Fees due and payable with
respect to such fiscal quarter and (ii) stating the aggregate amount of Fronting Fees due and payable to each Issuing Bank with respect to such fiscal quarter. Promptly after receipt of each such schedule, (x) the Company shall compare
such amounts with its own calculations of the LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees due and payable with respect to such fiscal quarter and (y) the Administrative Agent and the Company shall discuss the amounts set forth in each such schedule
and shall, subject to the next sentence, agree on the amount of such fees to be paid by the Borrowers for such fiscal quarter. Neither the failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver any such schedule, nor the inaccuracy of any such schedule,
shall relieve any Borrower of its obligations to pay such fees hereunder. In the event any Borrower pays any such fees based on any such schedule or any such agreement by the Administrative Agent and the Company and the amount so paid by such
Borrower is insufficient to satisfy its actual payment obligations under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section, then such Borrower shall remain liable for any such deficiency and such Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for its
account, the account of the applicable Issuing Banks and/or the account of the Lenders, as applicable) the amount of any such deficiency within two Business Days of demand therefor. 

SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) Each ABR Loan (other than any Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to
the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in
the case of a Eurodollar Revolving Loan, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for the Eurodollar Borrowing of which such Loan is a part plus the Applicable Rate or (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Competitive Loan, the LIBO
Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Margin applicable to such Loan. 
 (c) Each
Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. 

  
 54 













 (d) Each Swingline Loan shall bear interest, for any day, at a rate per annum equal to the
Swingline Benchmark Rate for such day plus (i) if such Swingline Benchmark Rate is determined by reference to clause (a) of the definition of such term, then the Applicable Rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans and (ii) if
such Swingline Benchmark Rate is determined by reference to clause (b) of the definition of such term, then the Applicable Rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that if any Swingline Lender shall have provided any notice
pursuant to Section 2.05(c), then from and after the date of such notice (and until the Lenders shall hold no participations in any Swingline Loans) each Swingline Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate
plus the Applicable Rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans. 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan
or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to
(i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as
provided above. 
 (f) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided
that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the
Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Revolving Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion and (iv) all accrued interest on Revolving Loans shall be payable upon termination of the Commitments. 

(g) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including
the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate or Swingline Benchmark Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. 
 SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) Subject to Section 2.14(b), if prior to the commencement of
any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing: 
 (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for
such Interest Period; or 

  
 55 













 (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the
case of a Eurodollar Competitive Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan) that because of a change in circumstances affecting the Eurodollar market generally the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Company and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and,
until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation
of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall continue as an ABR Borrowing, (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR
Revolving Borrowing and (C) any request by a Borrower for a Eurodollar Competitive Borrowing shall be ineffective; provided that (1) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by a
Borrower for Eurodollar Competitive Borrowings may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby and (2) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be
permitted. 
 (b) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or
an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a
Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes
hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and
(B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes
hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth 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. 
 (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below
in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace
the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this paragraph shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Company a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion. 

  
 56 













 (iii) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative
Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming
Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 
 (iv)
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable,
and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark
pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. 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 2.14, 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 2.14. 
 (v) 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), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBO Rate) and either (x) 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 (y) 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 or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any
Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (x) is subsequently
displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (y) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark
Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 

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

  
 57 













 SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan
requirement or insurance charge) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or any Issuing Bank; 

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than
Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participations therein; or 
 (iii)
subject any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of the term “Excluded Taxes”
and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent of making, converting to,
continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent 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, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or
otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case
may be, for such additional costs or expense incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change
in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding
company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments, the Swingline Commitment or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the LC Commitment of or the Letters of Credit
issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s
or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the
case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

  
 58 













 (c) If the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining any Loan to or participating in any
Swingline Loan to or any Letter of Credit issued for the account of, or any Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit for the account of, any Borrowing Subsidiary is increased (or the amount of any sum received or receivable by any
Lender (or its applicable lending office) or any Issuing Bank is reduced) by an amount deemed in good faith by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, by reason of the fact that such Borrowing Subsidiary is incorporated in, has its
principal place of business in, or borrows from, a jurisdiction outside the United States, such Borrowing Subsidiary shall indemnify such Lender or such Issuing Bank for such increased cost or reduction within 15 days after demand by such
Lender or such Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent). A certificate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank claiming compensation under this paragraph and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder (and
the basis for the calculation of such amount or amounts) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (d) A certificate of a
Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the
Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section for
any increased costs or reductions incurred more than three months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the three-month period referred to
above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section,
a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the Change in Law that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of the
Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made. 
 SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the
payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the
last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be
revocable under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance herewith), (d) the failure to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting the Competitive Bid to make such Loan, or (e) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan or Fixed Rate
Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.19(b), then, in any such event, 

  
 59 













 
the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such
event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the
date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from
such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for
such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for dollar deposits from other banks in the London interbank market at the
commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender delivered to the Company setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower
shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.17.
Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Borrower or
the Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been
made, (ii) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable
law. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 (c) The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may
be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 Company by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes,
only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable
by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any 

  
 60 













 
penalties, interest and 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. The indemnity under this paragraph shall be paid within 10 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate
shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. 
 (e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Company 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. 
 (f) (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, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, deliver to the Company or the
Administrative Agent such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as
will enable the Company 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 2.17(f)(ii)(A), 2.17(f)(ii)(B) or 2.17(f)(ii)(D)) 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 the applicable Borrower is a U.S. Person: 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on
which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying
that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding Tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is
legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from
time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

  
 61 













 (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 IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other
applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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; 

(2) executed copies of IRS 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) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the
applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed
copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 

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

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

(D) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the


  
 62 













 
Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as
prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent or any agent acting on its behalf as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has or has not 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 Effective Date. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires
or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(g) If any party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to
this Section (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes
giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any 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 to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
paragraph, in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund 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 which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

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

(i) For purposes of this Section, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment
required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements or of any amounts under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) or under any other Loan Document prior to the time expressly required
hereunder or under such other Loan Document (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time) on the date when due in immediately available 

  
 63 













 
funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding
Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account of the Administrative Agent as shall be specified by the Administrative Agent, except that payments required to be made directly to any
Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender shall be so made and payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to the other Loan Documents shall be made to the
Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for the payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the
period of such extension. All payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be made in dollars. 
 (b) If at any time
insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and
fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably
among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans or participations in
unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the
Revolving Loans and participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount
of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans and participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the
payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any
payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans
or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any Eligible Assignee. Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to
the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

  
 64 













 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower
prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower 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 the Lenders or such Issuing Bank the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or
such Issuing Bank severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to
it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d), 2.06(e), 2.07(b) or
2.18(d), or any other Section hereof requiring any payment for the account of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof),
apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a
different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment
and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation. 

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) any Lender shall deliver a notice of illegality to the Company pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender becomes a Declining Lender,
(v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (vi) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that under Section 10.02 requires the consent of all the Lenders and with respect to which
the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with
and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payment pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding
Competitive Loans held by it) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) the Company shall have received the
prior written 

  
 65 













 
consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if its consent would be required under Section 10.04, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld
or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued
fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts), (C) in the case of any such assignment and
delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, and in the case of any such
assignment and delegation in respect of a Declining Lender, the assignee shall have consented (and hereby is deemed to have consented) to the extension of the Maturity Date specified in the applicable Maturity Extension Request, (D) such
assignment does not conflict with applicable law and (E) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from the failure to provide a consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, the assignee shall have given
such consent and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and consents, the applicable amendment, waiver, discharge or termination can be effected. A Lender shall not be required to make any
such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and
delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not
be a party thereto. 
 SECTION 2.20. Borrowing Subsidiaries. (a) On or after the Effective Date, upon not less than 10
Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Company may designate any Significant Subsidiary of the Company (other than any Midstream Subsidiary) as a Borrowing Subsidiary by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a
Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Significant Subsidiary and the Company, and upon such delivery such Significant Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement;
provided that no Subsidiary so designated shall become a Borrowing Subsidiary if any Lender shall, within 10 Business Days following the Company’s notice, notify the Company and the Administrative Agent that (i) it would be unlawful
for such Lender or its Affiliates to make or maintain Loans to such Subsidiary or (ii) such Lender would otherwise be barred by applicable internal policies from making or maintaining Loans to such Subsidiary. If the designation of such
Borrowing Subsidiary obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures (including the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation) in circumstances where
the necessary information is not previously available to it, the Company shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent
or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar identification procedures under all applicable laws
and regulations prior to such Subsidiary being designated a Borrowing Subsidiary. If the Company shall designate as a Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder any Subsidiary not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender
may, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, fulfill its Commitment by causing an Affiliate of such Lender to act as the 

  
 66 













 
Lender in respect of such Borrowing Subsidiary and such Lender shall, to the extent of advances made to and participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrowing
Subsidiary, be deemed for all purposed hereof to have pro tanto assigned such advances and participations to such Affiliate in compliance with the provisions of Section 10.04. 

(b) Upon the execution by the Company and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to any
Borrowing Subsidiary, such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement; provided that no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrowing Subsidiary (other than to terminate such
Borrowing Subsidiary’s right to make further Borrowings or obtain Letters of Credit under this Agreement) at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrowing Subsidiary, or any Letter of Credit issued for the account of
such Borrowing Subsidiary, shall be outstanding hereunder or any fees or other amounts remain unpaid with respect thereto. 
 (c) Promptly
following receipt of any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or Borrowing Subsidiary Termination, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy thereof to each Lender. 

(d) Each Borrowing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably appoints the Company as its agent for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices (including any Borrowing Request and any Interest Election Request) and (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein. Each
Borrowing Subsidiary hereby acknowledges that any amendment, waiver or other modification to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be effected as set forth in Section 10.02, that no consent of such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be required
to effect any such amendment, waiver or other modification and that such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be bound by this Agreement or any other Loan Document (if it is theretofore a party thereto) as so amended, waived or otherwise modified. 

SECTION 2.21. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) the
Facility Fee shall cease to accrue pursuant to Section 2.12(a) on the unused amount of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; 

(b) the Commitment, Revolving Credit Exposure and, if applicable, Competitive Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be
included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to
Section 10.02); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 10.02, require the consent of such
Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof; 

  
 67 













 (c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender then: 
 (i) the Swingline Exposure (other than any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting
Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(c) and, in the case of any Defaulting Lender that is a Swingline Lender, other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the
definition of such term) and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by
Sections 2.06(d) and 2.06(e)) shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that (A) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure (in each case, excluding the portion thereof referred to above) does not exceed the sum
of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments and (B) such reallocation does not result in the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender exceeding
such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment; 
 (ii) if the reallocation described
in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (A) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure
(other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical in such clause (i)) that has not been reallocated and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure
(other than any portion thereof referred to in the parenthetical in such clause (i)) that has not been reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(i), for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause
(ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay LC Participation Fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure for so long as such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized; 
 (iv) if any portion of the Swingline Exposure or the LC Exposure of such
Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the Facility Fees and the LC Participation Fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation;

 (v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure is neither reallocated nor reduced pursuant
to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Swingline Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Facility Fees that otherwise would have been payable pursuant to Section 2.12(a) to such Defaulting
Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment utilized by such Swingline Exposure) shall be payable to the Swingline Lenders (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting
Lender’s Swingline Exposure attributable to Swingline Loans made by each Swingline Lender) until and to the extent that such Swingline Exposure is reallocated and/or reduced to zero; and 

  
 68 













 (vi) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is
neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all Facility Fees that otherwise would have been payable
pursuant to Section 2.12(a) to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment utilized by such LC Exposure) and LC Participation Fees that otherwise would have been payable pursuant to
Section 2.12(b) to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure
attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and 

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no
Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit, unless, in each case, the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure, as applicable, will be fully covered by
the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.21(c), and participating interests in any such funded Swingline Loan or in any
such issued, amended or extended Letter of Credit will be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate
therein). 
 Subject to Section 10.17, 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. In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender each agree that a Defaulting
Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date
such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans and such funded participations in Swingline Loans and LC Disbursements of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold
such Loans and such participations in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, and such Lender shall thereupon cease to be a Defaulting Lender (but shall not be entitled to receive any fees ceasing to accrue during the period when it was a
Defaulting Lender as set forth in this Section 2.21 and all amendments, waivers or other modifications effected without its consent in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.02 and this Section 2.21 during such period shall be
binding on it). The rights and remedies against, and with respect to, a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.21 are in addition to, and cumulative and not in limitation of, all other rights and remedies that the Administrative Agent, the
Company, each Issuing Bank, each Swingline Lender or any Non-Defaulting Lender may at any time have against, or with respect to, such Defaulting Lender.

the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property,

 SECTION 3.02.
Corporate Authority. The Transactions to be entered into by each Borrower have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action and are within such Borrower’s corporate or other organizational power,
do not require the approval of the equityholders or shareholders, as applicable, of such Borrower, and will not violate any provision of law or of its certificate of incorporation, memorandum and articles of association, limited liability company

Borrower pursuant to, any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which such Borrower is a party or by which such Borrower or its property may be bound or affected. The execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower of this Agreement,
each Note executed by such Borrower and each other Loan Document executed by such Borrower do not require any license, consent or approval of, or advance notice to or advance filing with any Governmental Authority or any other third party, or if
required, any such license, consent or approval has been obtained and any such notice or filing has been made. Each Borrowing Subsidiary, at the time it becomes a Borrowing Subsidiary and at all times thereafter, will have the requisite power and
authority to execute and deliver the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder and under the Loan Documents and each other agreement or instrument contemplated thereby to which it is or will be a party and to borrow
hereunder. 
 SECTION 3.03. Enforceability. This Agreement is, and each Note and each other Loan Document when delivered by a
Borrower hereunder will be, duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers or such Borrower, as the case may be, and does or will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrowers or such Borrower enforceable against the Borrowers or
such Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity and bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by moratorium laws from
time to time in effect.

releases or threatened releases of Hazardous Materials into the environment (including, without limitation, ambient air, surface water, ground water or land), or otherwise relating to the manufacture, processing, distribution, use, treatment,
storage, disposal, transport or handling of Hazardous Materials, except to the extent failure to have any such permit, license or authorization does not constitute a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries are in
compliance with all terms and conditions of all required permits, licenses and authorizations, and are also in compliance with all other limitations, restrictions, conditions, standards, prohibitions, requirements, obligations, schedules and
timetables, contained in those laws or contained in any regulation, code, plan, order, decree, judgment, injunction, notice or demand letter issued, entered, promulgated or approved thereunder, except to the extent failure to comply does not
constitute a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 3.08. Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used,
directly or indirectly, for any purpose that violates (including on the part of any Lender) any of the regulations of the Board, including Regulations U and X. 

SECTION 3.09. Investment Company Status. Neither the Company nor any of the Borrowing Subsidiaries is an “investment

ARTICLE VIII 
 The Administrative
Agent 
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as the Administrative Agent in the heading
of this Agreement and its successors to serve as administrative agent under the Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof
and of the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to
perform the Administrative Agent’s obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.


  
 82 













 The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender, an Issuing Bank or a Swingline Lender as any other Lender, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates as if it were not the Administrative Agent
hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders, Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not
have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and in performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of
the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its functions and duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent does not assume, and shall not be deemed to have assumed, any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, any Issuing Bank or
any other Person, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar
term) herein or in any other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is
used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties), and each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based
on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take
any discretionary action or to exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents), provided that
the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could expose the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, rule or regulation, and (c) except as expressly
set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates that is
communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any 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 as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan
Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, with such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined 

  
 83 













 
by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default
unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or
inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by fax, emailed pdf.
or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which
on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have no knowledge of any Lender being a Restricted Lender unless and until the Administrative Agent
shall have received the written notice from such Lender referred to in Section 1.07, and then only as and to the extent specified in such notice, and any determination of whether the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) shall have provided a consent or direction in connection with this Agreement or any
other Loan Document shall not be affected by any delivery to the Administrative Agent of any such written notice subsequent to such consent or direction being provided by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders). 

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for acting or not acting upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person
(whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the signatory, sender or authenticator thereof). The Administrative Agent also may rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for acting or not
acting upon, any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof), and may act upon
any such statement prior to receipt of written confirmation thereof. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent,
provided that, other than in the case of any such sub-agent that is an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall provide prompt written notice of such appointment to the
Company. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers 

  
 84 













 
through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related
Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities
as Administrative Agent. 
 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint one of the Lenders a
successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and in consultation with the Company, appoint one of the Lenders as a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any
such bank. If the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and the Administrative
Agent, remove the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such and, in consultation with the Company, appoint a successor. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged (to the extent not theretofore discharged) from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After
the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by them while it was acting
as Administrative Agent. 
 Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a
commercial lending facility, (b) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, in the ordinary course of
business, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing), (c) it has, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender or Issuing Bank, and to make, acquire or hold Loans or to issue, extend or amend Letters of Credit hereunder and (d) it is sophisticated with
respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to
make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each 

  
 85 













 
Lender and Issuing Bank also acknowledges and agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent
or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain MNPI) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

Each Lender and Issuing Bank, by delivering its signature page to the Amendment Agreement, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment
and Acceptance or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to,
or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Amendment Effective Date. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension or increase of a Letter of
Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance to the making of such Loan or the issuance, extension, renewal or amendment of such Letter of Credit. 

If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, an Issuing Bank or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank
(any such Lender, Issuing Bank or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under the immediately succeeding paragraph)
that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such
Lender, Issuing Bank or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether 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 or Issuing Bank 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 NYFRB 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 Article VIII shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error. 

  
 86 













 Without limiting the immediately preceding paragraph, each Lender and Issuing Bank, or any
Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, 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 or Issuing Bank, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case: 

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error 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 or Issuing Bank 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 Article VIII. 
 Each party hereto agrees that, 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 the above, from any Lender or Issuing Bank 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”), the Administrative Agent shall be
contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency. The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay,
prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by any Borrower, 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 any Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. 
 Each party’s obligations under this
Article VIII shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Borrower under any
Federal, State or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

  
 87 













 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Exposure 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 Issuing Banks and the Administrative
Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the
Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents
(including under Section 10.03). 
 None of the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents or the Documentation Agents shall have any duties or
obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except in its capacity, as applicable, as a Lender or an Issuing Bank), but all such Persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities and exculpatory provisions provided for hereunder.

 Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from
the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or
for the benefit of the Company or any other Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 
 (a) such
Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments, 

(b) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class
exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank
collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such
Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, 

(c) (i) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the
meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (ii) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the
Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (iii) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of 

  
 88 













 
the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (iv) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s
entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or 

(d) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole
discretion, and such Lender. 
 In addition, unless the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such
Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in the immediately preceding clause (d), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the
avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Company or any other Borrower, that none of the Administrative Agent, or any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect
to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or
exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto). 

ARTICLE IX 
 Guarantee 

In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrowing Subsidiaries hereunder and to induce the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of
Credit for the accounts of the Borrowing Subsidiaries hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the Guaranteed Obligations. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may
be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation. 

The Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrowing Subsidiary of any of its Guaranteed Obligations, and
also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment and all other notices, demands and protests and formalities of any kind which may otherwise constitute grounds for relieving the Company of its obligations
hereunder. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy
against any Borrowing Subsidiary under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or
release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) the failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to exercise any right or remedy
against any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations; (e) the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any 

  
 89 













 
Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument; (f) any default, failure or delay,
willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; (g) any lack of validity or unenforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (h) any change in ownership of any Borrower or any merger or consolidation
of any Borrower with any other Person, (i) any other circumstance which may constitute a defense (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations) or (j) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in
any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Company as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation. 

The Company further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a promise of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar
proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent, any
Lender or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in favor of any Borrower or Subsidiary or any other Person. 

The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and
shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of the Guaranteed
Obligations or otherwise. 
 The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as
the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank as applicable, upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of
any Borrowing Subsidiary or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have at law or in equity against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Borrowing Subsidiary to pay any Guaranteed Obligation of such Borrowing Subsidiary when and as the same shall become
due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent (which demand shall not be required if not allowed due to the
existence of a bankruptcy or similar proceeding and is hereby waived by the Company in the event of such circumstances), forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders and/or the Issuing Banks in cash
an amount equal the unpaid principal amount of such Guaranteed Obligation. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation shall be due in a currency other than dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New
York and if, by reason of any legal prohibition, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Guaranteed Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or,
in the reasonable judgment of any Lender or any Issuing Bank, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of such Lender or such Issuing 

  
 90 













 
Bank, as the case may be, the Company shall make payment of such Guaranteed Obligation in dollars (based upon the applicable exchange rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York,
and shall indemnify such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, against any losses or expenses (including losses or expenses resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates) that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 

Upon payment in full by the Company of any Guaranteed Obligation, each Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign to the Company the amount
of such Guaranteed Obligation owed to such Lender and so paid, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Guaranteed Obligation in question was discharged by the Company, or make such disposition thereof as the Company shall
direct (all without recourse to any Lender and without any representation or warranty by any Lender). Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary arising as a
result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Guaranteed Obligations owed by such Borrowing Subsidiary to the
Lenders.

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications

applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Any notices or other communications to the Administrative Agent or any Borrower may, in addition to email, be
delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the recipient thereof prior thereto; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited or rescinded by any such Person by notice to each other such

on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available”. Neither the Administrative Agent nor
any of its Related Parties warrants, or shall be deemed to warrant, the adequacy of the Platform and the Administrative Agent expressly disclaims liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or
statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made, or shall be deemed to be
made, by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to any Borrower, any Lender, any
Issuing Bank or any other Person for damages of any kind, 

  
 92 













 
including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Borrower’s or
the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Communications through the Platform, except to the extent of direct or actual damages (and not any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages) that are determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or its employees in performing the services hereunder. 

SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in
exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or
power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same
shall be permitted by this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of any
Loan Document, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing
may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section, none of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Lenders or by the Company and the
Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan
or LC Disbursement, or change the permitted currency thereof, or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than by waiving any “default” interest under Section 2.13(e)), or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written
consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees or any other amount payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of,
waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.09(c), Section 2.18(b) or 2.18(c) in a manner that
would alter the pro rata termination or reduction of Commitments or pro rata sharing of payments, as applicable, required thereby without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the percentage set
forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any
consent thereunder without the written consent of each Lender or (vi) release the Company from its obligations under Article IX without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that (A) no amendment,
modification or waiver of this Agreement or any provision hereof that would alter the rights or 

  
 93 













 
duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender hereunder shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such
Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and, without limiting the foregoing, any amendment or other modification of Section 2.21 shall require the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender and
(B) notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to first proviso of this paragraph, the Company, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks may enter into agreements referred to in Sections 2.06(j) and 2.06(k), and the term
“LC Commitment”, as such term is used in reference to any Issuing Bank, may be modified as contemplated by the definition of such term, in each case without consent of the Required Lenders. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in paragraph (b) of this Section: 

(i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended as provided in Sections 2.09(d), 2.09(e) and 2.14(b); 

(ii) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the
Company and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency or to make immaterial changes (including, but not limited to, incorporating changes needed to reflect a successor in interest of any party specifically
referred to herein) so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice
to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; and 

(iii) no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall
be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to (A) any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso of paragraph (b) of this Section and then only in the
event such Defaulting Lender shall be affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification or (B) any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any
Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other affected Lenders. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with
the prior written consent of any Lender, execute amendments, waivers or other modifications of this Agreement on behalf of such Lender. Any amendment, waiver or other modification effected in accordance with this Section 10.02 shall be binding
upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender. 
 SECTION 10.03. Expenses;
Indemnity; Limitation of Liability. (a) The Borrowers agree to pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,
the Arrangers and each of their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for the foregoing, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one firm of local
counsel in any relevant jurisdiction), in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein, the preparation and 

  
 94 













 
administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any Issuing Bank or
any Lender (including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for the foregoing, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, of one firm of local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction (and, in
the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the relevant Person affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel (including, if reasonably necessary, its own local counsel in any
relevant jurisdiction), of such conflict counsel for such affected Person and all similarly situated Persons, taken as a whole)), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof. 

(b) The Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, each Syndication Agent, each Documentation Agent, each Issuing
Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”), against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all Liabilities and related expenses (including
the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for any Indemnitee, and, if reasonably necessary, of one firm of local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction (and, in the case of an actual or perceived
conflict of interest where the relevant Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel (including, if reasonably necessary, its own local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction), of
such conflict counsel for such affected Indemnitee and all similarly situated Indemnitees, taken as a whole)) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of
this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the
Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if
the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing,
whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and whether initiated against or by any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Affiliate of any of the foregoing or any third party (and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a
party thereto); provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such Liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted (A) from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, its Affiliates or their officers, directors or employees or (B) from a material breach of
this Agreement by such Indemnitee. This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. 

  
 95 













 (c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to
the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without
limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to pay such amount), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank, such Swingline Lender or such Related
Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or
indemnified Liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub agent), such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender 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), any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity. 

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any
Lender-Related Person on any theory of liability, for any Liabilities arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet
or the Platform), except to the extent that such Liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Lender-Related Person or from a material breach of this Agreement by such Lender-Related Person, and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against any other party hereto or any
Lender-Related Person, 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 other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this sentence shall relieve the Borrowers of any obligation they
may have to indemnify an Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit
of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that no Borrower may (other than as expressly permitted by Section 6.02(a)
or 6.02(b)) assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in
this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of
Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section), the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent,
the Arrangers, the Syndication Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 96 













 (b) Any Lender may 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 and the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements at the time owing to it); provided that (i) each of the Company (provided that (A) in
the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or to an Approved Fund or (B) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default arising under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII, the
consent of the Company shall not be required; and provided further that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10
Business Days after having received a written request for its consent to such assignment), the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any assignment of a Commitment or any LC Exposure or any Swingline Exposure, as applicable, each Issuing Bank and
each Swingline Lender must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, it being agreed that none of the Company, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Swingline Lender will be deemed to have acted unreasonably if it refuses to consent to an assignment to an institution whose unsecured long-term deposit obligations or senior, unsecured, non-credit-enhanced
long-term indebtedness for borrowed money shall not have ratings of at least BBB from S&P and Baa2 from Moody’s, in each case with at least stable outlook), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender
or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or 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) shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent (provided that
upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default arising under clause (a), (b), (g) or (h) of Article VII, the consent of the Company shall not be required, provided further that the Company shall be
deemed to have consented to such other amount unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received a written request for its consent to such assignment), (iii) 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, provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply with respect to the assignment of
rights and obligations in respect of outstanding Competitive Loans or Swingline Loans, (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance (or an agreement incorporating by
reference a form of Assignment and Acceptance posted on the Platform), together (except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to one of its Affiliates or an assignment as a result of any of the events contemplated by Section 2.19) with a
processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any tax forms required by Section 2.17(f) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee
designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws,
including Federal and state securities laws. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto
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 

  
 97 













 
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 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for
purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section. 

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and records of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower, any Issuing
Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed
Assignment and Acceptance (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Acceptance posted on the Platform) executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax
forms required by Section 2.17(f) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been
recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (e) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans 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 Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the
first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. Each Lender selling participations shall keep a register (the “Participant Register”) in which it shall record
the name and address of each Participant to which such Lender sells participations and the 

  
 98 













 
amount and terms of such participations, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers; provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under
any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater
payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participations sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participations to such Participant is made with the
Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Company is notified of the participations sold to such Participant and such
Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 2.17(f) as though it were a Lender. 
 (g) Any Lender may at
any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank with jurisdiction over
such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants,
agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrowers in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have
been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its
behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any Loan Document is
executed and delivered or any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and
unpaid or any LC Exposure is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that an Issuing Bank shall have provided 

  
 99 













 
to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result
of the obligations of the Borrowers in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary
thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, for purposes of
determining whether the Company is required to comply with Articles V and VI hereof, but excluding Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 hereof and any expense reimbursement or indemnity provisions set forth in any other Loan Document), and the
Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.06(d) or 2.06(e). 

SECTION 10.06. USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby notifies each
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of
each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or such Issuing Bank to identify each Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. 

SECTION 10.07. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. (a) This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto on 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, including the commitments of the Lenders and, if
applicable, their Affiliates under any commitment letter entered into in connection with the credit facilities established hereunder and any commitment advices submitted in connection therewith (but do not supersede any other provisions of any such
commitment letter or any fee letter entered into in connection with the credit facilities established hereunder that do not by the terms of such documents terminate upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, all of which provisions shall remain in
full force and effect). This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. 

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any document, amendment,
approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document
and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed
signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”,
“delivery” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form
(including deliveries by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that 

  
 100 













 
reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), 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; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to
procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and Issuing
Banks shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and
(ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Borrowers hereby
(A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the
Company and any other Borrower, Electronic Signatures transmitted by fax, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document and/or any Ancillary Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the
Lenders and Issuing Banks may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary
course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record),
(C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such
other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any the Administrative, any Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any
Issuing Bank, any Lender and any Related Party of any of the foregoing for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by fax, emailed
pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of any of the Borrowers to use any available security measures in connection with the
execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature. 
 SECTION 10.08. Severability. Any provision of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof or thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  
 101 













 SECTION 10.09. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and
be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate (a) to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any of and all the obligations of the
Company or any Borrower, and (b) to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower, now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of
whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition
to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate may have. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such set off and
application; provided that the failure to give notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the Guarantee by the Company of the Guaranteed Obligations shall
constitute an obligation of the Company. 
 SECTION 10.10. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Process Agent;
Waiver of Immunity. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of the United States
District Court of the Southern District of New York and the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this

Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be brought, and shall be heard and determined exclusively in such Federal Court, or, in the event such Federal Court lacks subject matter jurisdiction, such New York State
court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, 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 any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any
Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in
any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit, action or proceeding in
any such court. 
 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices to it in
Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. Each Borrowing Subsidiary that is not organized in the United States

SECTION 10.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY 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, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY
OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Commitments, including the CUSIP Service Bureau. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received (whether prior to, or after the
Effective Date) from or on behalf of any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the foregoing relating to any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the foregoing or their respective businesses, financial condition, operations or assets,
other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by or on behalf of any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the foregoing;
provided that in the case of information received from the Borrowers 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 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own
confidential information. 
 (b) Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include MNPI, and
confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of MNPI and that it will handle such MNPI in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

(c) All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in
the course of administering, this Agreement or any other Loan Document will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI. Accordingly, each Lender represents to each Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its
Administrative Questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain MNPI in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws. 

SECTION 10.14. No Fiduciary Relationship. Each of the Borrowers agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrowers and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates, on the other
hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty or advisory or agency relationship on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or their
Affiliates, and no such duty or relationship will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. The Administrative Agent, each Arranger, each Syndication Agent, each Documentation Agent, each Lender, each
Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries, their respective equityholders and/or their respective Affiliates.

 SECTION 10.15. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of
obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder or under any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment
is given. 
 (b) The obligations of each party to any Loan Document in respect of any sum due to any other party thereto or any holder of
the obligations owing thereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due thereunder (the
“Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with
normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement
Currency, the Borrowers agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of each party to the Loan Documents contained in this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder and thereunder. 
 SECTION
10.16. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan
under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in
accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would
have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not
above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

SECTION 10.17. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial
Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound
by: 
 (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such
liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 

  
 105 













 (b) the effects of any Bail-In
Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such
liability; 
 (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such
Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect
to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such
liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
