ARTICLE II 
 The
Credits 
 SECTION 2.01     Commitments. 

(a)    Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly,
to make Loans in dollars to the Borrower in up to four draws from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment as of such date (prior to giving effect to the
making of such Loans); provided, however, that each draw shall be in a minimum amount of $30 million (or, if less, the 

  
 38 













 
entirety of the remaining Commitments) and in an amount that is a multiple of $1 million. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) and repaid or prepaid may not
be reborrowed. The principal amount of each Loan provided by a Lender under this Section 2.01(a) shall reduce such Lender’s Commitment as of the date of funding on a dollar-for-dollar basis. 
 SECTION 2.02     Loans. 

(a)    Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in
accordance with their applicable Commitments as set forth in Section 2.01; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to
lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). 

(b)    Subject to Sections 2.08 and 2.15, each Borrowing shall be
comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such
Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the
same time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings. 

(c)    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 such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received in accordance
with the instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower. 

(d)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any
proposed Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on
the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph(c) above and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the
Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then, to the extent that any Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at a rate determined by the Administrative
Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall not repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount within three Business Days after
demand by the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing, on
demand, from the Borrower. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.03     Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall deliver a
fully executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent by 3:00 p.m, New York City time, no 

  
 39 













 
fewer than five (5) Business Days before a proposed Borrowing (other than in the case of the Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date, which may be provided by 2:00 p.m., New York City time,
not less than one Business Day before such proposed Borrowing). Such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR
Borrowing; (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; and (iv) the amount of such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing is to
be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any
Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant
to this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing. 

SECTION 2.04     Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. 

(a)    The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender the principal amount of each Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11. 

(b)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 

(c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each
Loan made or exchanged hereunder, the Type thereof and, if applicable, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder
and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof. 

(d)    The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and
(c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, 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 obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms. In the event of any conflict between the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) above, the
accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) shall control. 

(e)    Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note. In such
event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Notwithstanding any
other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to
Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns. 

  
 40 













 SECTION 2.05     Fees. 

(a)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the administrative fees
set forth in the Agent Fee Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein. 
 (b)    The
Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender, an upfront fee in an amount equal to 2.00% of the Total Commitment, which fee shall be earned, due, and payable in cash on the Closing Date, and shall be
netted from the proceeds of the Loans advanced on the Closing Date. 
 (c)    Upon (i) any
prepayment or repayment of the Loans (whether such prepayment or repayment is voluntary or mandatory, or is paid pursuant to the acceleration of the Loans, on the Maturity Date or otherwise) and (ii) any termination or reduction of any unused
Commitments (whether such termination is voluntary or automatic, but, for the avoidance of doubt, excluding on account of the funding thereof), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender an exit fee
in an amount equal to the product of the Applicable Exit Fee Percentage and the principal amount of such prepayment or repayment of the Loans or termination or reduction of any such unused Commitments (the “Total Exit
Fee”), which fee shall be earned on the Closing Date and shall be due and payable on in cash on each applicable date of prepayment or repayment of the Loans or termination or reduction of any such unused Commitments. 

SECTION 2.06     Interest on Loans. 

(a)    Interest. 

(i)    Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each ABR
Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Interest Applicable Percentage in effect from
time to time (such interest, “ABR Interest”). 
 (ii)    Subject to the
provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted
LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Interest Applicable Percentage in effect from time to time (such interest, “Eurodollar Interest”, and together with ABR Interest,
“Interest”). 
 (iii)    Interest on each Loan shall be payable in cash in
arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing exceeds three months, the respective dates that fall every three months after the beginning of such Interest Period shall also be
Interest Payment Dates. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (b)    [Reserved]. 

  
 41 













 SECTION 2.07     Default Interest. At all times
during which an Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower shall pay interest on all Obligations hereunder at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when
determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to 2.00% per annum above the then-applicable rate. 

SECTION 2.08     Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two
Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing the Administrative Agent shall have determined that dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available
in the London interbank market, or that the rates at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Lender of making or maintaining its Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or that
reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such
determination, until the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Borrowing pursuant to
Section 2.03 or 2.10 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing. Each determination by the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 SECTION 2.09     Termination of Commitments. 

(a)    Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, from time to time
terminate or permanently reduce the unused portion of the Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or
reduction and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or
reduction provided in this Section. Any reduction of any Commitments hereunder shall be applied to the applicable Commitment of each applicable Lender according to the percentage of the Credit Facility represented by such Lender’s Commitment.

 (b)    Mandatory. The unused Commitments shall be automatically terminated immediately upon the expiry
of the Availability Period. 
 (c)    All Commitment terminations or reductions pursuant to this
Section 2.09 shall be subject to Section 2.05, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. 

SECTION 2.10     Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The Borrower shall have the right at any
time upon prior written irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing, (b) not later than 12:00
(noon), New York City time, three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to convert any ABR Borrowing into a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, and
(c) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

 (i)    each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the
respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing; 

  
 42 













 (ii)    each conversion shall be effected by each Lender
and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued
interest on any Eurodollar Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion; 

(iii)    if any Eurodollar Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16; 

(iv)    any portion of a Borrowing of any Loans maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month
may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing; 
 (v)    any portion of a Eurodollar
Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing; and

 (vi)    upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required
Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, no outstanding Loan may be converted into, or continued as, a Eurodollar Loan. 

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify
(i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing and (iii) if such notice
requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day). The Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each Lender’s portion of
any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Eurodollar Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have
given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be
continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month.

Borrowings.

Lenders, on the Maturity Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to but excluding the date of such payment.

Section 2.05 and Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

(a)    The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in
whole or in part, upon prior written notice to the Administrative Agent received before 11:00 a.m., New York City time at least three Business Days’ in advance of the prepayment date in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or at least one Business Day
in advance of the prepayment date in the case of ABR Loans; provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then
outstanding. 

  
 43 













 (b)    Optional prepayments of Loans shall be paid to
the Lenders in accordance with their respective pro rata share of the outstanding Loans at the time. 

(c)    Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each
Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing in the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice
is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or any other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified
effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be subject to Section 2.05 and Section 2.16 but shall otherwise be
without premium or penalty. All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. 

SECTION 2.13     [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.14     Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. 

(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or
deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate), shall
subject any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and (ii) Excluded
Taxes) on its Loans, Commitments or other obligations or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto or shall impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or
Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan or increase the cost to any Lender of purchasing or maintaining a participation
therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender from time to time
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b)    If any Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity
has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made pursuant hereto to a level below that
which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or
liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company
for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c)    A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) 

  
 44 













 
above shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within
30 days after its receipt of the same. 
 (d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not
be under any obligation to compensate any Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to such request
if such Lender knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such
increased costs or reductions; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that
shall have occurred or been imposed. 
 SECTION 2.15     Change in Legality. 

(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful
for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent: 

(i)    such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such
unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans, whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing (or to
convert an ABR Borrowing to a Eurodollar Borrowing or to continue a Eurodollar Borrowing for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an
additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and 

(ii)    such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans,
in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below. 

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal
that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or
resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans. 
 (b)    For purposes of this
Section 2.15, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other
cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower. 

  
 45 













 SECTION 2.16     Indemnity. The Borrower shall
indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense (but not against any lost profits) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder,
which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to
an ABR Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurodollar Loan to be made by such Lender (including any
Eurodollar Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this
clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Loan required to be made hereunder. In the case of any Breakage Event,
such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Eurodollar Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage
Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such
Breakage Event for such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.17     Pro Rata Treatment. Except as required under
Section 2.15 and Section 2.16, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each reduction of the Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to
or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans or, in the case of a reduction of Commitments, their
respective outstanding Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the
next higher or lower whole dollar amount. 
 SECTION 2.18     Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees
that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other
security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means (excluding means expressly contemplated elsewhere in
this Agreement), obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loans as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans of any other Lender, it
shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of the Loans and participations in Loans held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans prior to such exercise of banker’s
lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that if any such purchase or
purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such
recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan deemed to have been so purchased may
exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of
such participation. 

  
 46 













 SECTION 2.19     Payments. 

(a)    The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any
fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due in immediately available dollars, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment shall be made to the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender. 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. 

(b)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on
which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance
herewith and may, but shall not be obligated to, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower does not in fact make such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, and to pay 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 a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). 

SECTION 2.20     Taxes. 

(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party
hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a
Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, and if such Tax is an
Indemnified Tax, then 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 2.20) the Administrative
Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. 

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

(c)    The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20) that are payable or paid by
the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to 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 were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or
by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself or a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 47 













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

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

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

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

(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, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN
establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the
“business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2) in the case of a Foreign Lender
claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  
 48 













 (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 D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning
of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C)
of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form
W-8BEN; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an
executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, IRS
Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-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 D-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed 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 this Agreement or 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 Withholding Agent,
at the 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 as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and
withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

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

(f)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or any other Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the
obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the 

  
 49 













 
provisions of Section 9.04(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are
payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and
apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (f). 
 (g)    If any party determines, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 2.20), 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 2.20 with respect to the Taxes giving rise
to such refund), net of all out of pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the
request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such
indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party
pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such
refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party
to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

(h)    Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.20 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. 

SECTION 2.21     Assignment of Loans under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. 

(a)    In the event (i) any Lender delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to
Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on
account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrower that requires the consent of a greater
percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in each case, the Borrower may, at its sole
expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to transfer and assign, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of clause (iv) or
(v) above, all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Loans that are the subject of the related consent, 

  
 50 













 
amendment, waiver or other modification or in respect of which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations and,
with respect to clause (iv) above, shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment);
provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, and (z) the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of
the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans of such Lender plus all other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender hereunder with respect thereto (including any amounts under
Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20); provided, further, that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s claim for compensation under
Section 2.14, notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender to suffer increased costs or
reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under
Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender shall waive its right to claim further compensation
under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under
Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification or shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, then such Lender shall
not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such
Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21(a). 

(b)    If (i) any Lender shall request compensation under Section 2.14,
(ii) any Lender delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender, pursuant to
Section 2.20, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal
policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower or (y) to assign its rights and
delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to withdraw its notice
pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by
any Lender in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer. 
 SECTION 2.22
    Dutch Parallel Debts 
 (a)    The Borrower and each Guarantor
undertake with the Collateral Agent to pay to the Collateral Agent its Dutch Parallel Debts. 

  
 51 













 (b)    Paragraph (a) of this Clause is: 

(i)    for the purpose of ensuring and preserving the validity and effect of the Security Documents
governed by Dutch law; and 
 (ii)    without prejudice to the other provisions of the Loan Documents.

 (c)    Each Dutch Parallel Debt is a separate and independent obligation and shall not constitute the
Collateral Agent and any Lender as joint creditors of any Underlying Debt. 
 SECTION 2.23     Dutch Parallel
Debts Payment. Neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall be obliged to pay any Dutch Parallel Debt before the corresponding Underlying Debt has fallen due. 

SECTION 2.24     Dutch Parallel Debts Application. Any payment made, or amount recovered, in
respect of the Borrower’s or a Guarantor’s Dutch Parallel Debts shall reduce the Underlying Debts owed to a Lender by the amount which that Lender has received out of that payment or recovery under the Loan Documents.

Guarantors in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender will be, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified (or, if such information has been updated, amended or supplemented, on
the date as of which any such update, amendment or supplement is dated or certified) and not incomplete by omitting to state any material fact necessary in order to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at

otherwise make available such proceeds to any subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, (i) to fund any activities or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (ii) in any other manner that would
result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the Loans, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor, or otherwise). 

SECTION 3.09     Tax Returns and Payments. Each of the Borrower, each Parent Guarantor and each of
their Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed with the appropriate Governmental Authority all federal and other material returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the “Returns”) required to be filed
by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, the Borrower and/or any Parent Guarantor and/or any of their Subsidiaries. The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Borrower, the Parent
Guarantors and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the periods covered thereby. The Borrower, each Parent Guarantor and each of their Subsidiaries has paid all material taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than those
that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of Pyxus Holdings and its Subsidiaries or the Parent Guarantors and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, in accordance with GAAP. There
is no action, suit, proceeding, investigation, audit or claim now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or New Pyxus Topco, threatened by any authority regarding any material taxes relating to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of
their Subsidiaries which, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 3.10     Compliance with ERISA. 

(a)    Each Plan is in compliance in form and operation with its terms and with ERISA and the Code
(including without limitation the Code provisions compliance with which is necessary for any intended favorable tax treatment) and all other applicable laws and regulations, except where any failure to comply could not reasonably be expected, either
individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred, or is reasonably expected to occur, other than as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b)    There exists no actual Unfunded Pension Liability with respect to any
Plan, which either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c)    There are no actions, suits or claims pending against or involving a Plan (other than routine claims
for benefits) or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, which would reasonably be expected to be asserted successfully against any Plan and, if so asserted successfully, could reasonably be expected either individually or in the aggregate to result in a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 (d)    The Borrower, the Parent Guarantors, their Subsidiaries and any ERISA
Affiliate have made all contributions to or under each Plan and Multiemployer Plan required by law within the applicable time limits prescribed thereby, the terms of such Plan or Multiemployer Plan, respectively, or any contract or agreement
requiring contributions to a Plan or Multiemployer Plan except where any failure to comply, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 54 













 (e)    No Plan which is subject to Section 412 of
the Code or Section 302 of ERISA has applied for or received an extension of any amortization period, within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA. The Borrower, the Parent Guarantors, their
Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate have not ceased operations at a facility so as to become subject to the provisions of Section 4068(a) of ERISA, withdrawn as a substantial employer so as to become subject to the provisions of
Section 4063 of ERISA or ceased making contributions to any Plan subject to Section 4064(a) of ERISA to which it made contributions except as, with respect to each of the foregoing, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. None of the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors, their Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate have incurred or reasonably expect to incur liability to the PBGC which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect, and no lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on the assets of the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors, their Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate exists or is likely to arise on account of any Plan. None of the Borrower,
the Parent Guarantors, their Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has any liability under Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA. 

(f)    Except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Effect: each Foreign Pension Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good
standing with applicable regulatory authorities; all contributions required to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have been timely made; neither the Borrower nor any Parent Guarantor nor any of their Subsidiaries has incurred any
obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Foreign Pension Plan; and the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of Pyxus
Holdings’ most recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities. 

SECTION 3.11     Security Documents. 

(a)    Each of the Security Documents are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the
benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid, and enforceable security interest in all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties party thereto in the Collateral described therein, and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured

improvements located thereon) owned by it, including all material property reflected in the most recent historical balance sheets of New Pyxus Topco (except as sold or otherwise disposed of since the date of such balance sheet in the ordinary course
of business or as permitted by the terms of this Agreement), free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens. The Borrower, each Parent Guarantor and each of their Subsidiaries have a valid and indefeasible leasehold interest in the material

Subsidiaries 

  
 55 













 
and Material Foreign Subsidiaries. All outstanding Equity Interests of each Material Domestic Subsidiary and each Material Foreign Subsidiary have been duly and validly issued, are fully paid and
non-assessable and have been issued free of preemptive rights. Each Material Domestic Subsidiary and each Material Foreign Subsidiary has no outstanding securities convertible into or exchangeable for its
Equity Interests or outstanding any right to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options or warrants for the purchase of, or any agreement providing for the issuance (contingent or otherwise) of or any calls, commitments or claims of any character
relating to, its Equity Interests or any stock appreciation or similar rights.

Guarantors and their Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under

New Pyxus Topco giving effect to such designation and (ii) that such designation complied with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 6.01 hereof. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail
to meet the preceding requirements as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted
Subsidiary of Pyxus Holdings as of such date and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 6.03 hereof, the Borrower will be in default of such covenant. The Board of Directors of
New Pyxus Topco may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Pyxus Holdings of any outstanding
Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation will only be permitted if (i) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 6.03 hereof, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had
occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (ii) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. 

SECTION 5.13     Further Assurances; etc.

Credit Agreement, First Lien Notes or the ABL Credit Agreement, but such Subsidiary or Person is not a Guarantor, the Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will cause such Subsidiary or Person to become a Guarantor as described in the Guarantee
Agreement by way of execution of a joinder agreement thereto substantially in the form attached thereto as Exhibit A.

securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Borrower, 

  
 74 













 
such Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by

SECTION 6.02     Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Restricted Subsidiaries.
 
 (a)    The Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their

(i)    agreements governing Existing Indebtedness, the ABL Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Credit
Agreement, and the First Lien Notes Indenture as in effect on the date hereof and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that the amendments,
restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements
on the date hereof; 
 (ii)    this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 

(iii)    agreements governing other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to
Section 6.03 and any amendments, restatements, modifications, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those agreements; provided that (A) the restrictions are ordinary and customary

Indebtedness is incurred in good faith by the senior management of New Pyxus Topco; 
 (iv)    applicable
law, rule, regulation or order; 

  
 75 













 (v)    any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital
Stock of a Person acquired by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in
contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case
of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be incurred; 

(vi)    customary non-assignment provisions in contracts and
licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (vii)    purchase money obligations for
property acquired in the ordinary course of business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (iii) of Section 6.02(a) hereof; 

(viii)    any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or any
Parent Guarantor that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; 

(ix)    Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements
governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; 

(x)    Liens permitted to be incurred under the provisions of Section 6.06 hereof
that limit the right of the debtor to dispose of the assets subject to such Liens; 
 (xi)    provisions
limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with a
Restricted Investment) entered into with the approval of New Pyxus Topco’s Board of Directors, which limitation is applicable only to the assets that are the subject of such agreements; 

(xii)    restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered
into in the ordinary course of business; and 
 (xiii)    encumbrances or restrictions contained in

 SECTION 6.03     Incurrence of
Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock.  
 (a)    The Borrower and the
Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to
(collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of New Pyxus Topco to issue
any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Borrower and the Parent Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and the Subsidiary Guarantors may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired
Debt) or issue preferred stock, 

  
 76 













 
if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for New Pyxus Topco’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on
which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or such preferred stock is issued, as the case may be, would have been at least 2.0 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net
proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or the preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. 

(b)    The provisions of Section 6.03(a) hereof will not prohibit the incurrence
of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”): 

(i)    the incurrence by the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness and letters of credit under (A) the ABL Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (A) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum
potential liability of the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and their Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed $90.0 million, (B) the Term Loan Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding under this
clause (B) not to exceed an aggregate amount equal to $213,417,750 and (C) the First Lien Notes Indenture in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (C) not to exceed an aggregate amount equal to
$280,843,751 (and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in respect thereof); 
 (ii)    the incurrence
by the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and their Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness; 

(iii)    Indebtedness created hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; 

(iv)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of design, construction, installation or
improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries, in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to renew,
refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (iv), not to exceed $21.0 million at any time outstanding; 

(v)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to renew, refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by this Agreement to be
incurred under Section 6.03(a) hereof or clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) or (xvii) of this Section 6.03(b); 

(vi)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor and/or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, that any such Indebtedness shall be, to the extent owed by the Borrower or any Guarantor, unsecured and expressly
subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations or any Guarantee thereof then due hereunder, in the case of the Borrower or in the case of a 

  
 77 













 
Guarantor, as applicable; provided, that if as of any date any Person other than the Borrower, a Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries owns or holds any such
Indebtedness, such date shall be deemed the date of incurrence of Indebtedness by the Borrower, such Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (vi); 

(vii)    the issuance by any of the Borrower’s or the Parent Guarantors’ Restricted Subsidiaries
to the Borrower, to any Parent Guarantor or to any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of shares of preferred stock; provided however, that: 

(A)    any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such preferred stock
being held by a Person other than the Borrower, a Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or a Parent Guarantor; and 

(B)    any sale or other transfer of any such preferred stock to a Person that is not either the Borrower,
a Parent Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or a Parent Guarantor; 
 will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an
issuance of such preferred stock by such Restricted Subsidiary that was not permitted by this clause (vii); 

(viii)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Hedging Obligations entered into in order to manage existing or anticipated interest rate, exchange rate or commodity price risks and not for speculative purposes; 

(ix)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness owing under documentary or standby letters of credit for the purchase of goods or other merchandise generally; 

(x)    (a) Indebtedness in respect of OECD accounts receivable financings with recourse against the

(xi)    the Guarantee by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness of the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent that the guaranteed Indebtedness was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 6.03; provided that if the Indebtedness
being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Loans, then the Guarantee must be subordinated or pari passu, as applicable, to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed; 

(xii)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness in respect of workers’ compensation claims, self-insurance obligations, bankers’ acceptances, performance and surety bonds in the ordinary course of business; 

  
 78 













 (xiii)    the incurrence by the Borrower, any Parent
Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness owing under overdraft facilities in connection with cash management arrangements; 

(xiv)    the incurrence by any Foreign Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate amount (or
accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding not to exceed the greater of (a) $875 million and (b) the sum of (x) 65% of Eligible Inventory, plus (y) 65% of Permitted Advances on Purchases of Tobacco, plus (z) 85% of Eligible
Receivables, and any Guarantees of such Indebtedness by the Borrower or any Parent Guarantor; 

(xv)    Guarantees by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries which are
incurred in the ordinary course of business in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million in the aggregate at any time outstanding; 

(xvi)    Guarantees by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries which are
incurred in the ordinary course of business for the purpose of carrying unsold tobacco inventories held against Confirmed Orders and other Guarantees by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries incurred in the
ordinary course of business with respect to Uncommitted Inventories in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of such Uncommitted Inventories; 

(xvii)    the incurrence by the Borrower or any Guarantor of unsecured Indebtedness or Junior Lien Debt in
an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any time outstanding; and 

(xviii)    the incurrence of Indebtedness solely by Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the Parent
Guarantors that own no assets or property other than the Specified Business, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50.0 million at any time outstanding; provided, that such Indebtedness (i) shall not be subject to any interest
that is payable in cash (and interest in respect of such Indebtedness may only be payable in kind), (ii) shall have a final maturity date and a Weighted Average Life to Maturity, in each case, that is at least 91 days after the final maturity date
of the Loans, (iii) shall not be guaranteed by the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries other than a Restricted Subsidiary that owns no assets or property other than the Specified Business, (iv) shall be
secured solely by equity interests of entities, and any assets of such entities, in each case solely to the extent constituting the Specified Business, and (v) shall have covenants (if any) and events of default that apply solely to the
Specified Business; provided, further, that the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and their Restricted Subsidiaries shall not make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any
Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xviii) prior to the stated maturity thereof, except from (x) cash generated by the ordinary course operations of the Specified Business (which shall not include proceeds from any Investment in
the Specified Business by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries) and (y) proceeds of an Asset Sale of all or a portion of the Specified Business. 

The Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not incur, and will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to incur, any Indebtedness
(including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors or such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of


  
 79 













 
payment to the Credit Facility and the Guarantees thereof on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of
payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on junior priority basis. 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.03, in the event that an item of
Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xviii) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 6.03(a) hereof, the
Borrower will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 6.03.
Indebtedness under the First Lien Notes Indenture shall be deemed incurred under the exception provided by clause (i)(A) of the definition of Permitted Debt and may not be reclassified. Indebtedness under the ABL Credit Agreement may be incurred
solely under clause (i)(B) of the definition of Permitted Debt and may not be reclassified. 
 The accrual of interest or
preferred stock dividends, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the reclassification of preferred stock as Indebtedness due
to a change in accounting principles, and the payment of dividends on preferred stock or Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of
Indebtedness or an issuance of preferred stock or Disqualified Stock for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount of any such accrual, accretion or payment is included in Fixed Charges of Pyxus Holdings as accrued. For
purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be utilized, calculated based on
the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.03, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor
or any Restricted Subsidiary may incur pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates or currency values. 

The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date will be: 

(i)    the accreted value of the Indebtedness, in the case of any Indebtedness issued with original issue
discount; 
 (ii)    the principal amount of the Indebtedness, in the case of any other Indebtedness; and

 (iii)    in respect of Indebtedness of another Person secured by a Lien on the assets of the specified
Person, the lesser of: 
 (A)    the Fair Market Value of such assets at the date of determination; and

 (B)    the amount of the Indebtedness of the other Person. 

SECTION 6.04     Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets.  

Neither the Borrower nor any Parent Guarantor will, directly or indirectly: (a) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether
or not the Borrower or such Parent Guarantor is the surviving Person), 

  
 80 













 
or (b) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of New Pyxus Topco and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in
one or more related transactions, to another Person (other than in any case in connection with the Corporate Restructuring Transactions), unless, in the case of a Parent Guarantor: 

(i)    either: 

(A)    such Parent Guarantor is the surviving corporation; or 

(B)    the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Parent
Guarantor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is an entity organized or existing under the laws of (x) the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia or
(y) the jurisdiction of the Borrower or Parent Guarantor so consolidated, merged, sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of; 

(ii)    the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than such Parent
Guarantor) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of such Parent Guarantor, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to
supplements hereto and thereto, as applicable, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; 

(iii)    immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

(iv)    the Parent Guarantor or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if
other than such Parent Guarantor), or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made: would, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if
the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, (a) be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in
Section 6.03(a) hereof or (b) have had a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio greater than the actual Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for New Pyxus Topco for such four-quarter period. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, New Pyxus Topco will not, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of the properties and assets
of it and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person. 
 This
Section 6.04 will not apply to any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, lease or other disposition of assets between or among the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and/or their Restricted Subsidiaries. Clauses
(iii) and (iv) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.04 will not apply to any merger or consolidation of a Parent Guarantor: 

(a)    with or into one of its Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose; or 

(b)    with or into an Affiliate solely for the purpose of reincorporating any Parent Guarantor in another
jurisdiction. 

  
 81 













 Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or
other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of a Parent Guarantor in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the provisions of, Section 6.04 hereof, the successor Person formed by such
consolidation or into or with which such Parent Guarantor is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such
consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Agreement referring to such “Parent Guarantor” shall refer instead to the successor Person and not to such Parent Guarantor),
and may exercise every right and power of such Parent Guarantor, as applicable, under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor Person had been named as such Parent Guarantor herein; provided, however, that the predecessor Parent
Guarantor shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Loans except in the case of a sale of all of such Parent Guarantor’s assets in a transaction that is subject to, and that complies with the
provisions of, Section 6.04 hereof. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrower shall not, directly or indirectly,
consolidate or merge with or into any Person or sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of it and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions,
to any other Person. 
 SECTION 6.05     Transactions with Affiliates.  

The Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into any transaction or
series of transactions with any officer, director, shareholder or Affiliate other than (a) transactions between the Borrower, the Guarantors and/or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practices as of the date hereof, (b) transactions on terms and conditions substantially as favorable as would be obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person other than an
officer, director, shareholder or Affiliate, (c) loans or advances to employees in the ordinary course of business not to exceed $5.0 million in the aggregate at any one time outstanding, (d) the Corporate Restructuring Transactions
and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Corporate Restructuring Transactions and (e) tax sharing agreements between the Borrower, the Guarantors and/or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries which provide for payments that would
be permitted under this Agreement as Tax Payments if such payments were made as dividends or similar distributions. 
 SECTION 6.06
    Liens.  
 The Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of
their Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) securing Indebtedness, Attributable Debt or trade payables upon any of their property
or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired. 
 SECTION 6.07     Business Activities. 

 The Borrower and each of the Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage directly or
indirectly in any business other than the businesses engaged in by each of them and their Restricted Subsidiaries as of the date hereof and reasonable extensions thereof and businesses ancillary or complementary thereto.

 SECTION 6.09     Asset Sales.  

The Borrower and the Parent Guarantors will not, and will not permit any of their Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

 (a)    the Borrower (or the applicable Parent Guarantor or Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be)
receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (measured as of the date of the definitive agreement with respect to such Asset Sale) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed
of; and 
 (b)    at least 75% (100% in the case of lease payments) of the consideration received in the
Asset Sale by the Borrower (or the applicable Parent Guarantor or Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) is received in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided, however, that in the event of an Asset Sale of any property or assets of New
Pyxus Topco that are surplus from the standpoint of New Pyxus Topco as a whole, in the good faith determination of the Board of Directors of New Pyxus Topco (as evidenced by a resolution of such Board of Directors set forth in a certificate of a
Responsible Officer delivered to the Administrative Agent), at least 60% of the consideration therefor received is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash: 

(i)    any liabilities, as shown on New Pyxus Topco’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the
Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Credit Facility or any Guarantee thereof) that are assumed by the transferee of any such
assets pursuant to a customary novation or indemnity agreement that releases the Borrower, such Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary from or indemnifies against further liability; 

(ii)    any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Borrower, any such Parent Guarantor or
any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are contemporaneously, subject to ordinary settlement periods, converted by the Borrower, such Parent Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash received in
that conversion; 
 (iii)    net proceeds from an Asset Sale applied to acquire all or substantially all
of the assets of, or any Capital Stock of, another Permitted Business; provided, if, after giving effect to any such acquisition of Capital Stock, the Permitted Business is or becomes a Subsidiary of the Borrower or a Parent Guarantor, it shall be
or become a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower or such Parent Guarantor; and 
 (iv)    net proceeds
from an Asset Sale applied to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include Cash Equivalents). 

SECTION 6.10     Use of Proceeds. 

(a)    The Borrower will not use the proceeds of any Loan, whether directly or indirectly, in a manner
inconsistent with the uses set forth in Section 3.08. 
 (b)    The Borrower
will (i) not contribute or otherwise make available the proceeds of any Loan hereunder, directly or indirectly, to any person or entity (whether or not related to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor, any of their Subsidiaries or member of its
group of companies) for the purpose of financing the activities of any Sanctioned Person, to the extent such contribution 

  
 83 













 
or provision of proceeds would be prohibited by Sanctions or would otherwise, to the knowledge and belief of the Borrower, cause any person to be in breach of Sanctions; (ii) not fund all or
part of any repayment of any Loans or Obligations hereunder out of proceeds derived from transactions which would be prohibited by Sanctions or would otherwise cause any person to be in breach of Sanctions; and (iii) ensure that appropriate
controls and safeguards are in place designed to prevent any proceeds of any Loan from being used contrary to clause (i) above. 

SECTION 6.11     Borrower Covenant. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Borrower
hereby covenants and agrees with each Lender that from and after the date of this Agreement until the Payment in Full of the Obligations, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing: 

(a)    it shall not own or acquire any material assets (other than cash and cash equivalents) or engage in any material
business or activity other than (i) the ownership of Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries (whensoever acquired) and activities incidental thereto, (ii) the maintenance of its corporate existence and activities incidental thereto, including
general and corporate overhead, (iii) activities required to comply with applicable laws, (iv) the receipt of, or the making of, Restricted Payments, in each case, to the extent not prohibited by Section 6.01, (v)
compliance with its obligations under the Loan Documents, (vi) activities incidental to legal, tax and accounting matters in connection with any of the foregoing activities, including without limitation the provision of management services to
its Subsidiaries, entering into confidentiality agreements, and maintaining insurance, (vii) ordinary course intercompany transactions consistent with past practice that are permitted under this Agreement not prohibited by paragraph
(d) below; (viii) the creation, incurrence, assumption or existence of any Indebtedness or other liabilities not prohibited by paragraph (b) or (c) below; 

(b)    it shall not create, incur, assume or otherwise be liable for any Indebtedness except (i) Indebtedness under
the Loan Documents, (ii) any Guarantee of third-party Indebtedness of any of its Subsidiaries permitted under Section 6.01 that the Required Lenders have consented to in writing (which may be via e-mail), and (iii) ordinary course intercompany transactions permitted under this Agreement; 

(c)    it shall not create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien other than Liens created under the Loan Documents
and Liens arising under law; and 
 (d)    it shall not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, (i) sell,
transfer, distribute, dividend or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interest in any such Subsidiary or (ii) consummate an Asset Sale constituting all or substantially all, or a material portion of, the assets of the any such Subsidiary to any
Person other than to the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof unless the net proceeds of such sale, transfer or other disposition shall be reinvested in the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as capital expenditures or Investments. For purposes of this
Section 6.11(d), the term “Asset Sale” shall be determined without giving effect to clause (2) in the second paragraph of the definition thereof and the threshold set forth in clause (1) thereof shall be deemed to be
$10 million rather than $20 million. Any transaction covered by this Section 6.11(d) that is made to an Affiliate other than to a Subsidiary of the Borrower shall be on terms and conditions substantially as favorable as would be
obtainable in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person other than an Affiliate.

 ARTICLE VIII

 The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent 

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as their agents and authorizes the Agents to
take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents. 
 The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the
benefit of Agents and Lenders and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries. 

Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, (a) neither Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) neither Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise
any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary
under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries that is 

  
 87 













 
communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable (nor shall any Lender or
Loan Party have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent) 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 under the
circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and neither Agent shall 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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document, 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 expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. 

Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection
herewith or any of the other Loan Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Required Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may
be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions, including for the avoidance of doubt refraining from any action that, in its opinion or the
opinion of its counsel, may be in violation of the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of the Bankruptcy Code. Each Agent shall be
entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person.
Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be
counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

The Agents are not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties,
obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured
to it. The Agents shall not be responsible for any unsuitability, inadequacy, expiration or unfitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security documents pertaining to this matter nor shall it be obligated to make
any investigation into, and shall be entitled to assume, the adequacy and fitness of any security interest created hereunder or pursuant to any other security document pertaining to this matter. In no event shall the Agents be liable for any
indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if such loss or damage was foreseeable or it has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and
regardless of the form of action. In no event shall the Agents be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control,
including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or
computer (software and hardware) services. 

  
 88 













 Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or
through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or 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 each Agent and any such
sub-agent, and shall apply to their as activities as Agent. 
 Subject to the appointment and
acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, either Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (not to be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed) of the Borrower, to appoint a successor; provided that during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01 or 7.05, no consent of the Borrower shall be
required. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retirement of the retiring Agent shall become
effective on such 30th day and the retiring Agent may (but shall not have any obligation to do so), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent and, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 7.01 or 7.05 shall have
occurred and be continuing, reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while acting as Agent. 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder.

GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. 
 The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of communications by the Administrative Agent at
its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as
provided in the next sentence) specifying that the communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the
Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the
foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. 
 (b)    Each Lender may assign to
one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Loans at the time owing to it), with notice to the Borrower and the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, 

  
 91 













 
however, that (i) the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such
assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be not less than $1,000,000 (or, in any case, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Loans) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
(provided, that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default referred to in Sections 7.01 or 7.05), (ii) the parties to each such assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually), and shall pay to the
Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and will not apply in the case of an assignment by a Lender to an Approved Fund that is managed by
such Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender or by an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages such Lender), (iii) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire and all applicable tax forms, and (iv) all documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent pursuant to anti-money laundering rules and regulations. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) 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 (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05, as well as to any fees accrued for its account and not yet paid). 

(c)    By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the
assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and
clear of any adverse claim and that its Loans are as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance; (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect
to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument
or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries of any of its
obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee and is legally authorized to enter into such
Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.05 or delivered pursuant to
Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and
without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking
or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated
to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, 

  
 92 













 
respectively, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 

(d)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a
non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and
addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall
be conclusive absent manifest error and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of
this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. Borrower
hereby designates Administrative Agent to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 9.04(d), and Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Administrative
Agent serves in such capacity, Administrative Agent and its Related Parties shall constitute an “Indemnitee” hereunder and be indemnified in accordance with Section 9.05(b) hereunder in connection with serving in
such capacity. 
 (e)    Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
paragraph (b) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the Borrower to such assignment and any applicable tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) accept
such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e). 

(f)    Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent sell participations
to one or more banks or other persons in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating banks or other persons shall be entitled to the benefit of
the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein including the requirements under Section 2.20(e)) to the
same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results
from a Change in Law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation), it being understood that the tax forms required under Section 2.20(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender and
(iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable to such
participating bank or person hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such participating bank or person has an interest, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for
the payment of interest on the Loans in which such participating bank or person has 

  
 93 













 
an interest, increasing or extending the Commitments in which such participating bank or person has an interest or releasing any Guarantor (other than pursuant to the terms thereof or in
connection with the sale of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.04) or all or substantially all of the Collateral). Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and
expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.21 with respect to any participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as
a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the
Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of
any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other
obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its
capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(g)    Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed
assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the
Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information designated by the Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or
participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.17. 

(h)    Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to
secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge
or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting
Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to
the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any
Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC
hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation
under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is
one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding 

  
 94 













 
commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but
without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented
to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any
non-public information relating to its Loans to any investor, potential investor, rating agency, commercial paper dealer, collateral manager, servicer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or
liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
 (j)    The Borrower shall not assign or delegate any of its rights
or duties hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. 

SECTION 9.05     Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a)    The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by (i) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in connection with the preparation and consummation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
including the fees, charges and disbursements of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, Barbosa, Müssnich & Aragão Advogados and De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek N.V., (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in
connection with the administration hereof and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant additional
jurisdiction (and any such additional counsel, if necessary, as a result of actual or potential conflicts of interest) for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders 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 9.05, and, in connection with any such
enforcement or protection, the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in each relevant additional jurisdiction (and any such additional counsel, if necessary, as a result of actual or potential conflicts of interest) for the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders. 
 (b)    The Borrower agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing persons (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties and related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel in
each relevant jurisdiction (and any such additional counsel, if necessary, as a result of actual or potential conflicts of interest) for all Indemnitees, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as
a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of
the Transactions or any related transaction and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facility), or, in the case of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (and any
sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans, (iii) any claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of 

  
 95 













 
whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release of
Hazardous Materials on any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors or any of their
Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
by final judgment to have resulted primarily from (1) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (2) a material breach of the obligations under this Agreement of such Indemnitee or any of such
Indemnitee’s Affiliates or of any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or other representatives of the foregoing under this Agreement (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
nonappealable decision) or (y) result from any proceeding (other than a proceeding against a party hereto acting pursuant to this Agreement or in its capacity as such or of any of its Affiliates or its or their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, advisors and other representatives and the successors of each of the foregoing) solely between or among Indemnitees not arising from any act or omission of a Loan Party or any of its Affiliates. 

(c)    To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.05, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as
the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (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 loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent of the foregoing) in its capacity as such. For
purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the outstanding Loans at the time. 

(d)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall assert, and
each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or the Borrower and each of their respective Affiliates, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any Loan Document or other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions or any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, that nothing
contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations above to the extent such special, indirect, consequential and punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification hereunder 
 (e)    No Indemnitee referred to above shall be liable for any
damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or the Transactions. 
 (f)    The provisions of this Section 9.05
shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the invalidity or
unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this
Section 9.05 shall be payable, within 30 days of written demand therefor with a reasonably detailed summary of the amounts claimed. 

  
 96 













 SECTION 9.06     Right of Setoff. If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited 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 or an Affiliate of such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower
now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, provided that at such time such obligations are due or payable. The rights of each Lender and Affiliates of such Lender under this
Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender may have. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any
other Loan Document, each Secured Party expressly waives its right of setoff (and any similar right including bankers’ liens) with respect to all lockboxes, deposit accounts and other cash management accounts maintained by any grantor and into
which any collections for Government Accounts are deposited. For purposes hereof, “Government Accounts” means all accounts on which any federal or state government unit or any intermediary for any federal or state government
unit is the obligor. 
 SECTION 9.07     Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS
(OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

SECTION 9.08     Waivers; Amendment. 

(a)    No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising
any power or right 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 Collateral Agent 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 the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be
effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower
in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

(b)    Except as otherwise provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof, may be waived,
amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend
the maturity of or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan, extend the date for payment of any fees or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or reduce the amount of any fee payable
hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby, (ii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17, the sharing provisions of
Section 2.18, the provisions of Section 9.04(j) or the provisions of this Section 9.08 or release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantors (other than
pursuant to the terms hereof or thereof or in connection with the sale of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.04) or all or substantially all of the Collateral (or subordinate the Liens in favor of the
Collateral Agent on all or substantially all of the Collateral), without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iii) [reserved], (iv) modify the protections afforded to an SPC pursuant to the


  
 97 













 
provisions of Section 9.04(i) without the written consent of such SPC, (v) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required
Lenders,” or impose additional restrictions on the ability of the Lenders to assign their rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that with the consent of the
Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Commitments on the date hereof), (vi) amend the definition of
“Required Lender” without the prior written consent of each Lender or (vii) reduce the number or percentage of the Lenders required to consent, approve or otherwise take any action under the Loan Documents without the prior written
consent of each Lender affected thereby; provided, further, that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan
Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent; and (B) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend or supplement this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, without the consent of any
Lender, in order to (x) cure an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, (y) cause any other Loan Documents to be consistent with this Agreement or (z) in accordance with
Section 6.04. 
 SECTION 9.09     Certain Releases of Guarantees and Security
Interests. 
 (a)    Upon the closing of any sale, transfer or other disposition of all of the
Equity Interests of any Guarantor permitted pursuant to Section 6.04, (i) the obligations of such Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action
by the Collateral Agent or any Lender, and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon the reasonable request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form acceptable to the
Collateral Agent which may reasonably be required to evidence such discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty. 

(b)    Upon the closing of any sale, transfer or other disposition of Equity Interests of any Guarantor or
any other Subsidiary of the Borrower or Parent Guarantor permitted pursuant to Section 6.04, (i) the Collateral Agent shall release to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable
without representation, warranty or recourse, express or implied, the pledged Equity Interests issued by such Guarantor and any pledged Equity Interests issued by any other Subsidiary, as applicable, held by such Guarantor, (ii) the Collateral
Agent shall release its security interest in all Collateral of such Subsidiary, and (iii) the Collateral Agent will, upon the request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form
acceptable to the Collateral Agent which may reasonably be required to evidence such release. 

(c)    If New Pyxus Topco shall reasonably determine at any time after the Closing Date that (x) the
provision or maintenance of a Guarantee by any Foreign Guarantor could reasonably be expected to result in material adverse tax consequences to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or their Subsidiaries, (i) the obligations of such Foreign
Guarantor pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by the Collateral Agent or any Lender and (ii) the security interest of the Collateral Agent in all Collateral of such
Foreign Guarantor shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by the Collateral Agent or any Lender or (y) the provision or maintenance of a grant of a security interest in any Collateral of any Foreign Guarantor
to secure the Obligations could reasonably be expected to result in material adverse tax consequences to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or their Subsidiaries, the security interest of the Collateral Agent in such Collateral shall automatically


  
 98 













 
be discharged and released without any further action by the Collateral Agent or any Lender. In connection with the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable,
will, upon the request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, which may reasonably be required to evidence
such release. 
 (d)    The Collateral Agent will, upon the request and at the sole expense of the
Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form acceptable to the Collateral Agent which may be reasonably be required to discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty, any Lien on any Collateral
granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon Payment in Full of the Obligations, (ii) that is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of or to be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of as part of or in
connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition permitted hereunder to a person other than the Borrower or any Guarantor, and upon consummation by the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries of any such sale, transfer or
other disposition, any Lien granted by the Borrower, such Parent Guarantor or such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents on such Collateral shall automatically be discharged and released, and (iii) that is released in accordance with
the terms and conditions of the applicable Security Document granting such Lien, and the Collateral Agent and the Lenders will, upon the request and at the sole expense of the Borrower, execute and deliver any instrument or other document in a form
acceptable to the Collateral Agent which may reasonably be required to evidence such discharge and release, all without representation, recourse or warranty. 

(e)    The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize each of the Agents, at their option and in their
discretion, to take the actions described in this Section 9.09. Upon request by any Agent at any time, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate to such Agent stating that any sale, transfer or other disposition described in
this Section 9.09 is permitted under the Loan Documents. Upon request by any Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Agents’ authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular
types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations, in each case pursuant to this Section 9.09. The Agents shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any
representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith,
nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. 

SECTION 9.10     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 which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful
rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such
Loan or participation 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 or participation but
were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.10 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not
above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 

SECTION 9.11     Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire
contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement 

  
 99 













 
among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or
implied, is intended to confer upon any person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 

SECTION 9.12     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 RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT
NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.12. 

SECTION 9.13     Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired
thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith
negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 9.14     Counterparts; Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an
executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission (or other electronic transmission pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. This Agreement and any
document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement (each a “Communication”), including Communications required to be in writing, may be
in the form of an Electronic Record and may be executed using Electronic Signatures. Each of the Loan Parties agrees that any Electronic Signature on or associated with any Communication shall be valid and binding on each of the Loan Parties to the
same extent as a manual, original signature, and that any Communication entered into by Electronic Signature, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Loan Parties enforceable against such in accordance with the terms
thereof to the same extent as if a manually executed original signature was delivered. Any Communication may be executed in as many counterparts as necessary or convenient, including both paper and electronic counterparts, but all such
counterparts are one and the same Communication. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Parties
of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Each of
the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Parties may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed
created in the ordinary course of such person’s business, and 

  
 100 













 
destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have
the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless
expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the
Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Parties shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan Party without further verification and (b) upon the request of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them,
respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

 SECTION 9.16     Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process. 
 (a)    The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and
its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment (in each case other than with respect to any Security Document to the extent expressly provided otherwise therein), and each of the parties hereto hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court (in each case other than with respect to
any Security Document to the extent expressly provided otherwise therein). Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(b)    The Borrower 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 the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the
parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(c)    Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

(d)    Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Loan Parties (other than any Loan Party organized under
the laws of the United States or any State thereof or the District of Columbia) irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers as of the Closing Date, the Borrower (the “Process Agent”), with an office on the Closing Date at
8001 Aerial Center Parkway, Morrisville, NC, 27560, as its authorized designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge on its 

  
 101 













 
behalf and for its property, service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to which it is a party or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof; such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Loan Party in care of the Process Agent at the Process
Agent’s above address, and each such Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. Each of the Loan Parties (other than any Loan Party organized under the laws of the United States
or any State thereof or the District of Columbia) further agrees to take any and all such action as may be necessary to maintain the designation and appointment of the Process Agent in full force in effect for a period of three years following the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder (other than contingent amounts not then due and payable); provided, that if the Process Agent shall cease to act as such, each such Loan Party agrees
to promptly designate a new authorized designee, appointee and agent in New York City on the terms and for the purposes reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent hereunder. 

SECTION 9.17     Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel,
numbering, administration and settlement service providers, and other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or
by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of its rights hereunder or thereunder,
(e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.17, to (i) any actual or prospective assignee of or participant in any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower, any Parent Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or any of their respective
obligations, (f) with the consent of the Borrower or (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.17. For the purposes of this
Section 9.17, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower and related to the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors or their respective businesses, other than any such information
that was available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Borrower; provided that any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall use
commercially reasonable efforts give the Borrower prior notice of any disclosure pursuant to clause (c) to the extent permissible and reasonably practicable, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank
accountants or any governmental regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority. Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.17 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 its own confidential information. 

SECTION 9.18     USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not
on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of
the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and their Subsidiaries and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower, the Parent Guarantors and their Subsidiaries in accordance with the
USA PATRIOT Act.
