 PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS 

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Existing Credit Agreement;
provided however, that all capitalized terms used in Section 5 herein and not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below). 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has hereby notified the Administrative Agent that it is requesting an extension of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental
Period and the Lenders providing Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments have hereby agreed to such extension on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Borrower has requested that the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders consent to the amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement set forth herein. 
 WHEREAS, each Lender
party hereto has agreed to consent to this Amendment on the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of
the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree to amend the Existing Credit Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Amendment as follows: 

SECTION 1.    Amendments to the Credit Agreement. Effective as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below)
and subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth herein: 
 (a)    the Existing Credit Agreement is
hereby amended and restated in its entirety in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto (as amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). 

(b)    Schedule I to the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to be in the form
of Schedule I attached hereto. 
 (c)    Schedules 4.7, 4.8, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and
8.4 to the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to be in the forms of Schedules 4.7, 4.8, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4 attached hereto, respectively. 

(d)    Exhibit J to the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to be in the form
of Exhibit J attached hereto. 











 SECTION 2.    Amendment No. 5 Incremental
Commitments. 
 (a)    Terms Generally. The Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments shall continue to
have identical terms as the Revolving Credit Commitments immediately prior to the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date (other than the mandatory reduction (the “Mandatory Reduction”) upon the last day of the Amendment No. 5
Incremental Period (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) set forth in Section 2.5 (Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments) of the Amended Credit Agreement) and shall otherwise be subject to the
provisions, including any provisions restricting the rights, or regarding the obligations, of the Loan Parties or any provisions regarding the rights of the Lenders, of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each reference to a
“Revolving Credit Commitment” or “Revolving Credit Commitments” in the Amended Credit Agreement shall continue to be deemed to include the Incremental Commitments and all other related terms will have correlative meanings
mutatis mutandis. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Amendment to the contrary, the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments shall continue to be considered an increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments
under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date and not a separate tranche of Indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement notwithstanding the Mandatory Reduction. 

(b)    Reallocation. On the Amendment Effective Date, each Lender agrees to purchase and assume from each existing
Revolving Credit Lender having Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on the Amendment Effective Date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such
Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments (after giving effect to this Amendment), in the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans, so as to ensure that, on
the Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, each Revolving Lender is owed only its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on the Amendment Effective Date
and as set forth in Schedule I (Revolving Credit Commitments) to the Amended Credit Agreement.

Revolving Credit Lender Consents, in the form attached hereto as Annex B (the “Consenting Revolving Credit Lender Consents”), duly executed and delivered by all of the existing Lenders (the “Consenting

 (b)     The amendment of the Existing Credit Agreement as contemplated hereby shall not be

 (c)     The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not,

constitute a waiver or amendment of any provision of any of the Loan Documents or for any purpose except as expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Existing Credit Agreement or other Loan Documents, each of the

Commitments) to the Amended Credit Agreement and (ii) the respective Commitments of each Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement prior to giving effect to this Amendment that is not a party to this Amendment are unchanged and shall be
reflected on Schedule I (Revolving Credit Commitments) to the Amended Credit Agreement. 
 (d)     This Amendment
is a Loan Document. 
 SECTION 5.    Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants
that: 
 (a)     (i) each Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance
of this Amendment, (ii) this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party, (iii) this Amendment is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except

delivery and performance will not (A) contravene or violate any Loan Party’s Constituent Documents, (B) violate any other Requirement of Law applicable to any Loan Party or any order or decree of any Governmental Authority or
arbitrator applicable to the Borrower or (C) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default under, or result in or permit the termination or acceleration of, any Related Document or any other material Contractual Obligation
of any Loan Party. 

  
 4 












 (b)     Each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan
Party in the Amended Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents to which it respectively is a party or by which it is bound, is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Amendment Effective Date (other than representations and
warranties in any such Loan Document which expressly speak as of a specific date, which shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such specific date); provided, that to the extent that any such representation or warranty
is already qualified by materiality, Material Adverse Effect or a similar qualification, such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects as of the applicable date. 

(c)     No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

SECTION 6.    Incorporation by Reference. The following sections of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be

words of like import in this Amendment shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of electronic records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed
signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic
Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 SECTION
9.    No Novation. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent
under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of any of the Loan Documents and nothing herein can or may be construed as a novation thereof. Neither this Amendment nor the Amended Credit Agreement shall extinguish the

most recent Financial Statements referred to in Section 6.1 (Financial Statements) is hereafter required or permitted by the rules, regulations, pronouncements and opinions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board or the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or any successors thereto) and such change is adopted by the Borrower with the agreement of the Group Member’s Accountants and results in a change in any of the calculations required by
Article V (Financial Covenant) or VIII (Negative Covenants) that would not have resulted had such accounting change not occurred, the parties hereto agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions so as to equitably reflect
such change such that the criteria for evaluating compliance with such covenants by the Borrower shall be the same after such change as if such change had not been made; provided, however, that no change in GAAP, including proposed or

ARTICLE II 

THE FACILITY 

Section 2.1    The Revolving Credit Commitments 

On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make loans (each a
“Revolving Loan”) in Dollars or an Alternative Currency to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any
time outstanding for all such Revolving Loans by such Revolving Credit Lender, the Dollar Equivalent of which shall not exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that at no time shall
any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to make a Revolving Loan (i) in excess of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Available Credit and (ii) denominated in an Alternative Currency to the extent that, after giving
effect to such Revolving Loan, (x) Euro Outstandings would exceed the Euro Sublimit or (y) Sterling Outstandings would exceed the Sterling Sublimit. Within the limits of the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender,
amounts of Revolving Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date, (a) the Borrower will not be permitted to
incur any Loans denominated in Sterling unless and until the Eurocurrency Rate for amounts denominated in Sterling has been replaced as contemplated by this Agreement and (b) the Eurocurrency Rate shall cease to be available with respect to
amounts denominated in Sterling. 
 Section 2.2    Borrowing Procedures 

(a)    Each Borrowing shall be made on notice given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than
12:00 p.m. (New York time) (i) on the requested date of Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, (ii) three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate
Loans denominated in Dollars; provided, that the Borrower may instead give the Administrative Agent notice (prior to 1:00 p.m. New York time) one Business Day prior to the date of a proposed Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in
Dollars on the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date (or such shorter notice as is approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), and (iii) four Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing in an Alternative
Currency. Each such notice shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit C (Form of Notice of Borrowing) (a “Notice of Borrowing”), specifying (A) the date of such proposed Borrowing, (B) the
aggregate amount of such proposed Borrowing, (C) whether any portion of the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate 

  
 64 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Loans, (D) for each Eurocurrency Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan, the initial Interest Period or Periods thereof, (E) the Available Credit (after giving effect to (i) any
Availability Reserve then in effect, a notice with respect to which has been provided to the Borrower prior to the delivery of such Notice of Borrowing, and (ii) the proposed Borrowing) and (F) whether such Borrowing is to be made in
Dollars or an Alternative Currency. The Revolving Loans shall be made (i) in Dollars and/or (ii) as Base Rate Loans unless, with respect to clause (ii) subject to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing
Eurocurrency Rate Loans), the Notice of Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be (i) in Alternative Currency and/or (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans), if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent may make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to
exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than the Minimum
Threshold. 
 (b)    The Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Credit Lender a notice by not later than
2:00 p.m. (New York time) (or 12:00 p.m. (New York time) with respect to any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans) on the date a Notice of Borrowing has been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.2(a) above of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Notice of Borrowing and, if Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable
interest rate determined pursuant to Section 2.14(a) (Determination of Interest Rate). Each Revolving Credit Lender shall, before (i) 1:00 p.m. (New York time) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) 2:00
p.m. (London time) in the case of Loans denominated in Sterling and (iii) 1:00 p.m. (London time) in the case of Loans denominated in Euros, in each case, on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at its
address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), in immediately available funds, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such proposed Borrowing. Upon fulfillment (or due waiver in accordance with
Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.)) at any time (including the Effective Date), of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of
Credit), and after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower. 

(c)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Revolving Credit Lender prior to the date of any
proposed Borrowing that such Revolving Credit Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that such
Revolving Credit Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender
and the Borrower severally agree 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 until the date such amount
is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Credit Lender, the Interbank Rate for the
first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Revolving Credit Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so
repaid shall constitute such Revolving Credit

AGREEMENT

Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such
Revolving Credit Lender of any obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower. 
 (d)    The occurrence of any
Revolving Credit Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligations to make such Loan or payment on such date but no such other Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for the failure of
any Defaulting Lender to make a Loan or payment required under this Agreement. 
 Section 2.3    Swing Loans

 (a)    On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender may, in
its sole discretion, make, in Dollars, loans (each a “Swing Loan”) otherwise available to the Borrower under the Facility from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit
Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding (together with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any other Swing Loan made by the Swing Loan Lender hereunder) not to exceed the Swing Loan Sublimit;
provided, however, that (i) the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans equal to the amount by which the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans exceeds $25,000,000 shall be deemed a utilization of the Revolving
Credit Commitment of the Swing Loan Lender (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Swing Loan Lender and prompt notice of such agreement is given to the Administrative Agent) and (ii) at no time shall the Swing Loan Lender make any Swing
Loan to the extent that, after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Credit. Each Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid in full within fifteen days after its making
or, if sooner, upon any Borrowing hereunder and shall in any event mature no later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Swing Loans
repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a). 
 (b)    In order to request a Swing Loan,
the Borrower shall fax (or forward by electronic mail or similar means) to the Administrative Agent a duly completed request in substantially the form of Exhibit D (Form of Swing Loan Request), setting forth the requested
amount and date of such Swing Loan (a “Swing Loan Request”), to be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day of the proposed borrowing. The Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify the Swing Loan Lender of the details of the requested Swing Loan. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender may make a Swing Loan available to the Administrative Agent and, in turn, the Administrative Agent shall make such
amounts available to the Borrower on the date of the relevant Swing Loan Request. The Swing Loan Lender shall not make any Swing Loan in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent
or any Revolving Credit Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such
conditions are satisfied. The Swing Loan Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of
Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the making of any Swing Loan. 
 (c)    The Swing Loan Lender shall
notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which writing may be a fax or electronic mail) weekly, by no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day of each week, of the aggregate principal amount of its Swing Loans then
outstanding.

 (d)    The Swing Loan Lender may demand at any time that each Revolving
Credit Lender pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, in the manner provided in clause (e) below, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of all or a portion of the outstanding
Swing Loans, which demand shall be made through the Administrative Agent, shall be in writing and shall specify the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans demanded to be paid. 

(e)    The Administrative Agent shall forward each notice referred to in clause (c) above and
each demand referred to in clause (d) above to each Revolving Credit Lender on the day such notice or such demand is received by the Administrative Agent (except that any such notice or demand received by the Administrative Agent
after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or any such demand received on a day that is not a Business Day shall not be required to be forwarded to the Revolving Credit Lenders by the Administrative Agent until the next succeeding
Business Day), together with a statement prepared by the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans stated to be outstanding in such notice
or demanded to be paid pursuant to such demand, and, notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) and 2.1 (The Revolving Credit Commitments)
shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), each Revolving Credit Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date of such Revolving
Credit Lender’s receipt of such notice or demand, make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the amount specified in such statement. Upon such payment by a Revolving
Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall, except as provided in clause (f) below, be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the Swing Loans to
the Swing Loan Lender. To the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower shall repay such Swing Loan on demand. 

(f)    Upon the occurrence of a Default under Section 9.1(f) (Events of Default), each Revolving
Credit Lender shall acquire, without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation in each Swing Loan otherwise required to be repaid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to clause (e) above, which participation
shall be in a principal amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan, by paying to the Swing Loan Lender on the date on which such Revolving Credit Lender would otherwise have been required to make a payment
in respect of such Swing Loan pursuant to clause (e) above, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Swing Loan. If all or part of such amount is not in
fact made available by such Revolving Credit Lender to the Swing Loan Lender on such date, the Swing Loan Lender shall be entitled to recover any such unpaid amount on demand from such Revolving Credit Lender together with interest accrued from such
date at the Interbank Rate for the first Business Day after such payment was due and thereafter at the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans. 

(g)    From and after the date on which any Revolving Credit Lender (i) is deemed to have made a Revolving Loan
pursuant to clause (e) above with respect to any Swing Loan or (ii) purchases an undivided participation interest in a Swing Loan pursuant to clause (f) above, the Swing Loan Lender
shall promptly distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender such

Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of all payments of principal of and interest received by the Swing Loan Lender on account of such Swing Loan other than those received from a
Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to clause (e) or (f) above. 

Section 2.4    Letters of Credit 

(a)    On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Issuer agrees to Issue at the request
of the Borrower and for the account of the Borrower (or for the joint account of the Borrower and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) one or more Letters of Credit in Dollars or an Alternative Currency from time to time on any Business Day during
the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and 30 days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuer shall be under any obligation to
Issue (and, upon the occurrence of any of the events described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and to the extent relating to any fees owing to the Issuer of such Letter of Credit or its Affiliates,
(vi)(A) below, shall not Issue) any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following:

Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or
capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date or result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to such Issuer as of
the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date and that such Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 

(ii)    such Issuer shall have received any written notice of the type described in
clause (d) below; 
 (iii)    after giving effect to the Issuance of such
Letter of Credit, the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Credit at such time;

Credit is requested to be denominated in any currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency;

ordinary course of its business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit. 
 None of the Lenders (other than the Issuers
in their capacity as such) shall have any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit. None of the Issuers shall be required to issue any Documentary Letter of Credit unless otherwise agreed in writing by the relevant Issuer. 

(b)    In no event shall the expiration date of any Letter of Credit be (i) more than one year after the date of
issuance thereof or (ii) less than five days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, unless consented to by the applicable Issuer in such Issuer’s sole discretion; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a
term less than or equal to one year may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional periods less than or equal to one year, as long as, on or before the expiration of each such term and each such period, each of the Borrower and the
Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall have the option to prevent such automatic renewal; provided, further, that, for any Letter of Credit having an expiration date after the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Borrowers agree to

 (c)    In
connection with the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall give the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent at least (x) two Business Days’ prior written notice, in the case of any Letter of Credit to be denominated in

the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit. 

(e)    The Borrower agrees that, if requested by the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, it shall execute a Letter of Credit
Reimbursement Agreement in respect to any Letter of Credit Issued hereunder. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. 

(f)    Each Issuer shall comply with the following: 

(i)    give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in
writing), which writing may be a fax or electronic mail, of the Issuance of any Letter of Credit Issued by it, of all drawings under any Letter of Credit Issued by it and of the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower of any
Reimbursement Obligation when due (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit by fax, electronic mail or similar transmission to each Lender); 

(ii)    upon the request of any Revolving Credit Lender, furnish to such Revolving Credit Lender copies of
any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement to which such Issuer is a party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Revolving Credit Lender; and 

(iii)    no later than 10 Business Days following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the

thereto. 
 (g)    Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, such Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuer,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion, in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto (including all Letter of
Credit Obligations with respect thereto) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto. 
 (h)    The
Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued for its account no later than the date that is the next succeeding Business Day after the
Borrower receives written notice from such Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit (the “Reimbursement Date”), irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right
that the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person. In the event that any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to this
clause (h) or any such payment by the Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand with interest

thereon computed (i) from the date on which such Reimbursement Obligation arose to the Reimbursement Date, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are
Base Rate Loans and (ii) from the Reimbursement Date until the date of repayment in full, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such failure, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such payment (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof if such payment was made in any currency other than Dollars) in immediately available Dollars. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Revolving
Credit Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment on such
Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall, except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) (Events of
Default) and notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Revolving
Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in the principal amount of such payment. Whenever any Issuer receives from the Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the
Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuer shall pay over to the Administrative Agent any amount received in
excess of such Reimbursement Obligation and, upon receipt of such amount, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay over to each Revolving Credit Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s
Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Revolving Credit Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation. 

(i)    If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the
payment required by clause (h) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on
demand any such unpaid amount together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Rate and, thereafter, until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer,
at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Facility. 
 (j)    The Borrower’s
obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuers with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and
irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the following: 

(i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or
provision therein; 
 (ii)    any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of
the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

 (iii)    the existence of any claim, set off, defense or
other right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any
Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction; 

(iv)    any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent,
invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 

(v)    payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document
that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and 
 (vi)    any other act or omission to
act or delay of any kind of the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this
Section 2.4, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
 Any action taken or
omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not result in any liability of such Issuer to the Borrower or any
Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation,
regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein,
including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of
Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any
statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to
constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer. 
 Section 2.5    Reduction and Termination
of the Revolving Credit Commitments 
 The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative
Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part ratably the unused portions of the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders; provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of
not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided, further, however, that any such reduction during the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period shall reduce first, ratably among
the Incremental Lenders (as defined in Amendment No. 5) and Eligible Assignees who participated in the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments until such unused portions of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments have been
terminated in whole and second, ratably the unused portions of the 

  
 72 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
remaining respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders. Any notice of termination or reduction delivered pursuant to this Section 2.5 may
state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to
the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, on the day after the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period, to the extent the Revolving Credit Commitments on such
date exceeds $1,500,000,000, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be automatically reduced to an aggregate amount equal to $1,500,000,000 in accordance with Schedule I (Revolving Credit Commitments), as amended by each Assignment and
Acceptance entered into after the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date and before the expiry of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period (such reduction, the “Mandatory Reduction”), and the Borrower shall (i) prepay the Loans
to the extent the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstanding exceeds the aggregate Maximum Credit pursuant to the terms of Section 2.9(c) (Mandatory Prepayments) with respect to such Mandatory Reduction, (ii) pay all
accrued fees and interests under the Loan Documents with respect to such Loans prepaid by the Borrower in connection with such Mandatory Reduction and (iii) pay all accrued fees under the Loan Documents with respect to such portion of the
Revolving Credit Commitments that is being reduced pursuant to the Mandatory Reduction. On the day after the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period, each Incremental Lender (as defined in Amendment No. 5) or Eligible Assignee
who participated in the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments during the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period shall sell and assign to each Revolving Credit Lender having Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing
Loans outstanding on such date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with Schedule I (Revolving Credit
Commitments), as amended by any Assignments and Acceptances entered into after the Amendment No. 6 Effective Date and before the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period, in the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and
participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans, so as to ensure that, on such date after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment reduction, each Revolving Lender is owed only its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Loans and
participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on such date. 
 Section 2.6    Repayment of
Loans 
 The Borrower promises to repay the entire unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the Swing Loans on the
Scheduled Termination Date or earlier, if otherwise required by the terms hereof. 
 Section 2.7    Evidence
of Debt 
 (a)    Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and stated interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. In
addition, each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or having identified a Special Purpose Vehicle as such to the Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower
solely for this purpose, shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a record of ownership in which such Lender shall register by book entry (i) the name and address of each
such participant and Special Purpose Vehicle (and each change thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise) and (ii) and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s or Special Purpose Vehicle’s interests in any
Obligation, in any Revolving Credit

AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Commitment and in any right to receive payment hereunder (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of
the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person (other than
the Borrower) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the
United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for
all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(b)    (i) The Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose, shall
establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Administrative Agent agrees to register by book entry the Administrative
Agent’s, each Lender’s and each Issuer’s interest in each Loan, each Letter of Credit and each Reimbursement Obligation, and in the right to receive any payments hereunder and any assignment of any such interest or rights. In
addition, the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose, shall establish and maintain accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (i) the names and addresses of the
Lenders and the Issuers, (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Lender from time to time, (iii) the amount of each Loan made and, if a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iv) the amount of any drawn
Letters of Credit, (v) the amount of any principal and stated interest due and payable, and paid, by the Borrower to, or for the account of, each Lender hereunder, (vi) the amount that is due and payable, and paid, by the Borrower to, or
for the account of, each Issuer, including the amount of Letter Credit Obligations (specifying the amount of any Reimbursement Obligations) due and payable to an Issuer, and (vii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder from the Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender’s and Issuer’s, as the case may be,
share thereof, if applicable. 
 (ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Loans (including the Revolving Credit Notes evidencing such Loans) and the drawn Letters of Credit are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and the Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans
or drawn Letters of Credit, as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register. A Revolving Credit Note shall only evidence the Lender’s or a registered assignee’s right, title and interest in and
to the related Loan, and in no event is any such Revolving Credit Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. This Section 2.7(b) and Section 11.2 (Assignments and Participations) shall be
construed so that the Loans and drawn Letters of Credit are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any successor
provisions of the Code or such regulations). 
 (c)    The entries made in the Register and in the accounts therein
maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima  

  
 74 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; 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 addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or as an Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or Issuer shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d)    Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the event that any Revolving Credit Lender requests that
the Borrower execute and deliver a registered promissory note or registered notes payable to such Revolving Credit Lender in order to evidence the Indebtedness owing to such Revolving Credit Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver a Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes to such Revolving Credit Lender evidencing the Revolving Loans of such Revolving Credit Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (Form of Revolving Credit
Note). 
 Section 2.8    Optional Prepayments 

The Borrower may prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans in whole or in part at any time;
provided, however, that if any prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan is made by the Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower shall also pay any amount owing pursuant to
Section 2.14(e) (Breakage Costs); provided, further, that the Administrative Agent shall receive notice of such prepayment not later than 12:00 noon (New York time in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars
or London time in the case of Loans denominated in Alternative Currency) (i) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) four Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of
Revolving Loans denominated in Alternative Currency and (iii) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans. Any notice of prepayment delivered pursuant to this Section 2.8 may state that it is conditioned upon the
occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if
such condition is not satisfied. 
 Section 2.9    Mandatory Prepayments 

(a)    Upon receipt by any Group Member of Net Cash Proceeds arising from an Asset Sale of any Collateral, the Borrower
shall immediately prepay the Loans (or provide cash collateral in respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such mandatory prepayment shall be applied in accordance with
clause (b) below. 
 (b)    Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.13(g) (Payments and Computations), any prepayments made by the Borrower required to be applied in accordance with this clause (b) shall be applied as follows: first, to
repay the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Loans until such Swing Loans shall have been repaid in full; second, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans until such Revolving Loans shall have been paid in
full; and then, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to 103% of such Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in
Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth therein.

 (c)    If at any time, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit
Outstandings exceeds the aggregate Maximum Credit at such time, including in connection with the reduction described in Section 2.5 (Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments) on the date after the last
day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay the Swing Loans first and then the Revolving Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the
aggregate outstanding Swing Loans and Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) in an
amount equal to 103% of such excess. 
 (d)    The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct, during a
Liquidity Event Period, the application of all funds in the Cash Collateral Account and agrees that the Administrative Agent may and, upon the written direction of the Requisite Lenders given at any time during such Liquidity Event Period, shall
(i) deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and (ii) except, as provided in Section 2.13(g) (Payments and Computations) and clause (b)
above, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all available funds in the Cash Collateral Account on a daily basis as follows: first,
to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Loans until such Swing Loans have been repaid in full; second, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans until such Revolving Loans shall have been repaid in
full; and then to any other Obligation then due and payable. The Administrative Agent agrees to apply such funds and the Borrower consents to such application. If (i) following such application, (ii) outside of a Liquidity Event
Period or (iii) after all Letters of Credit shall have expired or be fully drawn and all Revolving Credit Commitments shall have been terminated, there are no Loans outstanding and no other Obligations that are then due and payable (and, if an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, cash collateral has been provided in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner required in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of
Credit)), then the Administrative Agent shall cause any remaining funds in the Cash Collateral Account to be paid at the written direction of the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the Borrower or another Person lawfully entitled
thereto). 
 (e)    At any time during a Liquidity Event Period, subject to Section 2.9(d) all
amounts collected in the Concentration Account pursuant to Section 7.11 (Cash Management) shall be applied on each Business Day by the Administrative Agent first, to prepay the Loans (including Swing Loans) and
then, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to 103% of such Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in
Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth therein. Following such application, the Administrative Agent
shall, subject to Section 2.9(d) cause any remaining funds in the Concentration Account to be paid at the written direction of the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the Borrower or another Person lawfully
entitled thereto). 
 (f)    If, at any time, the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Revolving Credit Outstandings
exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments as then in effect by greater than 5% for five consecutive Business Days solely due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Borrower shall within one Business Day after the receipt of written
notice thereof from the 

  
 76 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Administrative Agent repay Loans (or provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of
Credit) in an amount equal to 103% of the Letter of Credit Obligations) in a principal amount such that, after giving effect to such repayment, the Revolving Credit Outstandings do not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments. 

Section 2.10    Interest 

(a)    Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations (other than pursuant to
Hedging Contracts or Cash Management Obligations that are Loan Documents, to the extent such Hedging Contracts or Cash Management Obligations, as applicable, provide for the accrual of interest on unpaid obligations) shall bear interest, in the case
of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided
in clause (c) below, as follows: 
 (i)    each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; 

(ii)    each EURIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each
Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the EURIBOR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; and 

(iii)    each Base Rate Loan and other Obligation (at such time as they become due and payable) shall bear
interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

For the avoidance of doubt, each Sterling Loan shall be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, and each Euro Loan shall be a EURIBOR Rate Loan. 

(b)    Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan (other than Swing Loans) shall be
payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such day following the making of such Base Rate Loan and (B) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan, (ii) interest accrued on Swing Loans shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of the immediately succeeding calendar month, (iii) interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Rate Loan and EURIBOR
Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Loan and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each date during such Interest Period occurring every three
months from the first day of such Interest Period, (B) upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part and (C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or
EURIBOR Rate Loan and (iv) interest accrued on the amount of all other Obligations shall be payable on demand from and after the time such Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise). 

(c)    Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a)
above or elsewhere herein, upon (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(a), (b), or (f) (Events of Default) and (ii) the election of the Administrative Agent or


  
 77 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
the Requisite Lenders (in their sole discretion) with respect to any other Event of Default (and following written notice thereof to the Borrower) and for as long thereafter as such Event of
Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of all Loans and the amount of all other Obligations then due and payable shall, commencing, in the case of clause (i) above, on the date when the applicable Event of Default first
occurred and, in the case of clause (ii) above, on the date of delivery of the written notice as provided therein, bear interest at a rate that is two percent per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable to such Loans or other
Obligations from time to time. Such interest shall be payable on the date that would otherwise be applicable to such interest pursuant to clause (b) above or otherwise on demand. 

Section 2.11    Conversion/Continuation Option 

(a)    The Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day, to convert Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Loans)
or any portion thereof to Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (ii) at the end of any applicable Interest Period, to convert Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue any
(x) Eurocurrency Rate Loans or (y) EURIBOR Rate Loans, or, in each case, any portion thereof, for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate amount of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans
for each Interest Period must be in the amount of the applicable Minimum Threshold. Each conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable
Portion. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F (Form of Notice of Conversion or Continuation) (a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving the
Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior written notice specifying (A) the amount and type of Loan being converted or continued, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or
EURIBOR Rate Loans, as applicable, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of such conversion. 

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation
pursuant to Section 2.11(a) above and the options selected therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans and no continuation in whole or in
part of Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than to Revolving Loans having an Interest Period of one week or one month) upon the expiration of any applicable Interest Period shall be permitted at any time at which
(A) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or (B) the continuation of, or conversion into, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.14 (Special Provisions
Governing Eurocurrency Rate Loans). If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing
a permitted election to continue any Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, (x) any Dollar Loans shall be
automatically converted to Base Rate Loans, (y) any Sterling Loans shall be automatically continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month and (z) any Euro Loans shall be automatically continued as EURIBOR Rate
Loans with an Interest Period of one month. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders may require that any Revolving Loans
denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be automatically continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans, as applicable, with an Interest Period of one month on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

 Section 2.12    Fees 

(a)    Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay in immediately available Dollars to each Revolving Credit
Lender a commitment fee on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender exceeds such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount
of the Dollar Equivalent of Revolving Loans and (ii) the outstanding amount of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) from the date hereof through the Revolving Credit
Termination Date at the Unused Commitment Fee Rate, payable in arrears (x) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the Effective Date and (y) on the Revolving Credit
Termination Date. 
 (b)    Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with respect
to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer: 
 (i)    to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Issuer of a Letter of Credit, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, an issuance fee equal to 0.125% per annum (or such lesser rate as agreed between the Borrower and such Issuer) of the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum undrawn
face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving Credit
Termination Date; 
 (ii)    to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit
Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit, a fee accruing in Dollars at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurocurrency Rate Loans on the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum undrawn face amount of such
Letter of Credit, payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date;
provided, however, that during the continuance of an Event of Default (to the extent that additional interest accrues on the Loans or other Obligations pursuant to Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest)),
such fee shall be increased by two percent per annum (instead of, and not in addition to, any increase pursuant to Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest)) and shall be payable on demand; and 

(iii)    to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each
Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be.

 (c)    Defaulting Lender Fees. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, during such period
as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting
Lenders in respect of such fees) and, subject to the immediately following proviso, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fees that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender; provided, that
(i) to the extent that a Ratable Portion of the Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans of such Defaulting Lender has been reallocated in accordance with Section 2.19(a)(i) (Reallocation of Defaulting Lender
Commitments) to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, the fee accruing 

  
 79 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
during such period pursuant to clause (b) above will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro
rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, and (ii) to the extent any portion of such Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans cannot be so reallocated to such
Non-Defaulting Lenders, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lender as their interests appear (and the pro rata payment provisions of
Section 2.13 (Payments and Computations) will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.12(c)). 

(d)    Additional Fees. The Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent additional fees, the amount and
dates of payment of which are embodied in the Fee Letter. 
 Section 2.13    Payments and Computations

 (a)    The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees and expenses) not later than
11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due, in the currency of the underlying Loan (in the case of payments of principal and interest) and in Dollars (in the case of fees and all other amount) to the Administrative Agent at its address
referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed
immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments set forth in clause (f) or (g) below, as applicable, for
the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices; provided, however, that amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), Section 2.16 (Taxes) or
Section 2.14(c) or (d) (Special Provisions Governing Eurocurrency Rate Loans) shall be paid only to the affected Lender or Lenders and amounts payable with respect to Swing Loans shall be paid only to the Swing Loan
Lender. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. 

(b)    All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the rate of interest specified in
clause (a) of the definition “Base Rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360 day
year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year) or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in
Euro as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of a rate of interest hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error. 
 (c)    Each payment by the Borrower of any Loan, Reimbursement Obligation (including interest or fees in
respect thereof) and each reimbursement of various costs, expenses or other Obligation shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, such Letter of Credit issued or such cost, expense or other Obligation was incurred; provided,
however, that (i) the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement for a Letter of Credit may specify another currency for the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) other than for payments in respect of a
Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, Loan Documents duly executed by the Administrative Agent or any Hedging Contract may specify other currencies of payment for Obligations created by or directly related to such Loan Document or Hedging Contract. 

(d)    Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such
payment shall be extended to the next succeeding 

  
 80

AGREEMENT

Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such
extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All repayments of any Revolving
Loans shall be applied as follows: first, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurocurrency Rate Loans and EURIBOR Rate Loans, ratably, with those Eurocurrency Rate Loans and
EURIBOR Rate Loans having earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those having later expiring Interest Periods. 

(e)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on
which any payment is due hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may,
in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative
Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon (at the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter at the rate applicable to Base
Rate Loans) for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent. 

(f)    Except for payments and other amounts received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with the
provisions of clause (g) below (or required to be applied in accordance with Section 2.9(b) or (d) (Mandatory Prepayments)), all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative
Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement
on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower, second, to pay all other Obligations then due and payable and third, as the Borrower so designates. Payments in
respect of Swing Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to the Swing Loan Lender; payments in respect of Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent shall be distributed to each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance
with such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion; and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligation shall be allocated among such of the Lenders and Issuers as are entitled thereto and, for such payments
allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders, in proportion to their respective Ratable Portions. 
 (g)    Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.9(d) (Mandatory Prepayments) above, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.9(b) (Mandatory Prepayments) and clause (f) above, the
Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2 (Remedies), shall, deliver a Blockage Notice to each
Deposit Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all other proceeds of Collateral in the following order:

AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 (i)    first, to pay interest on and then
principal of any portion of the Revolving Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower; 

(ii)    second, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or
indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent; 
 (iii)    third, to pay Secured
Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuers; 

(iv)    fourth, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any fees then due to the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers; 
 (v)    fifth, to pay interest then
due and payable in respect of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations; 
 (vi)    sixth, to
pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to provide cash collateral for outstanding Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts in the manner described in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of
Credit), and to pay the Qualified Eligible Obligations, ratably to the aggregate principal amount of such Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts, Cash Management Obligations, and Obligations owing with respect to
Hedging Contracts constituting Qualified Eligible Obligations; 
 (vii)    seventh, to the
ratable payment of all other Secured Obligations (excluding the Last-Out Eligible Obligations); and 

(viii)    eighth, to pay the Last-Out Eligible
Obligations; 
 provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Secured
Obligation described in any of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) above the available funds being applied with respect to any such Secured Obligation
(unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Secured Obligation ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s or Issuer’s interest in the aggregate
outstanding Secured Obligations described in such clauses; provided, however, that payments that would otherwise be allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be allocated first to repay Protective Advances and Swing Loans
pro rata until such Protective Advances and Swing Loans are paid in full and then to repay the Revolving Loans. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi),
(vii) and (viii) above may at any time and from time to time be changed by the agreement of the Super-Majority Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Secured Party that is not a Lender
or Issuer or by any other Person that is not a Lender or Issuer. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above may be changed only with the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent in addition to that of the Super-Majority Lenders. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from any Loan Party shall
not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party.

 (h)    At the option of the Administrative Agent, principal on the Swing
Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances may be paid from the proceeds of Swing Loans or Revolving Loans. The Borrower hereby authorizes the
Swing Loan Lender to make such Swing Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans) and the Revolving Credit Lenders to make such Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(a) (Borrowing Procedures)
from time to time in the amounts of any and all principal payable with respect to the Swing Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances, and further
authorizes the Administrative Agent to give the Lenders notice of any Borrowing with respect to such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans to pay such amounts. The Borrower agrees that
all such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit),
which conditions the Lenders irrevocably waive) and directs that all proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts. 

(i)    If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments
in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral due to it from and for the benefit of the Borrower to the Non-Defaulting Lenders for application to, and reduction of, the Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Portion of all Obligations until such Non-Defaulting Lenders have been repaid in full. Each Defaulting Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 2.8 (Optional Prepayments), Section 2.9 (Mandatory
Prepayments) and this Section 2.13. This Section 2.13(i) shall (i) apply at any time such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default has
occurred or is continuing and notwithstanding (1) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (2) any instruction of the Borrower as to its desired application of payments and (ii) not be deemed to relieve or otherwise
release the Borrower or any other Loan Party from any of its Obligations due or owing to any Lender, including a Defaulting Lender. 

(j)    In the event that any Borrowing Base Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.9(a)
(Borrowing Base Determination) for any period (an “Applicable Period”) is determined to be inaccurate in any material respect, then (i) the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected and
accurate Borrowing Base Certificate as required by Section 6.9(a) (Borrowing Base Determination) for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin (including for the purposes of
Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) and Unused Commitment Fee Rate for the relevant Applicable Period shall equal the Applicable Margin and Unused Commitment Fee Rate calculated based upon such corrected Borrowing
Base Certificate, and (iii) the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the amount, if any, by which (x) the amount of accrued interest, Unused Commitment Fees and fees due pursuant to
Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) for such Applicable Period, determined based on such corrected Borrowing Base Certificate, exceeds (y) the amount of interest, Unused Commitment Fee and fees due pursuant to
Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) paid to the Lenders for such Applicable Period. Nothing in this Section 2.13(j) shall limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under
Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest) or Article IX (Events of Default).

 Section 2.14    Special Provisions Governing Eurocurrency
Rate Loans and EURIBOR Rate Loans 
 (a)    Determination of Interest Rate 

The Eurocurrency Rate and EURIBOR Rate for each Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans and EURIBOR Rate Loans shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” and “EURIBOR Rate”, as applicable. The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct
absent manifest error and shall be binding on the Borrower. 
 (b)    Successor Rate 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including Section 11.1 hereof) but subject to
Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting), if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a EURIBOR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error), or the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) that the Requisite Lenders have determined, that: 

(i)    adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining EURIBOR Rate or Eurocurrency Rate for
the applicable currency for any requested Interest Period because the Screen Rate for the applicable currency is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary 

(ii)    the administrator of the Screen Rate for the applicable currency or a Governmental Authority having
jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which EURIBOR Rate or Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable currency or the Screen Rate for the applicable currency shall no longer be made
available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in the applicable currency (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or 

(iii)    syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in
this Section 2.14(b), are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace EURIBOR Rate or Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable currency; 

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as
applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace EURIBOR Rate or Eurocurrency Rate for the applicable currency with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the
benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities denominated in the applicable currency for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a
“EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate”), together with any proposed EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate Conforming Changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the
Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Requisite Lenders
do not accept such amendment. Such EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor 

  
 84 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such
EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as mutually agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 
 If
no EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (a) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and
each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain EURIBOR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the applicable currency shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected EURIBOR Rate Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or
Interest Periods). Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in the applicable currency (to the extent of the affected
Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such
EURIBOR/Eurocurrency Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (c)    Increased Costs

 If at any time any Revolving Credit Lender determines that any Change in Law shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such
Revolving Credit Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such
Revolving Credit Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Revolving Credit Lender for such
increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the amount so determined, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Revolving Credit Lender, shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be
required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loan equal to the actual
costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply
with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans,
such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Revolving Credit Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such
Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided, however, the Borrower shall have received at
least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a request to be paid such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional
interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice. 

  
 85 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section 2.14(c) for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand,
compensation therefor; provided, that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof. 
 The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.14(c) (Increased Costs) shall
survive payment in full of the Obligations or the termination of this Agreement. 
 (d)    Illegality 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Revolving Credit Lender determines that any Change in Law shall make it
unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Revolving Credit Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or its EURIBOR Lending Office to make EURIBOR Rate
Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans, as applicable, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Revolving Credit Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the
obligation of such Revolving Credit Lender to make or to continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, and each such Revolving Credit Lender shall make a Base
Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars and (ii) if the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans and EURIBOR Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan
into a Base Rate Loan. If, at any time after a Revolving Credit Lender gives notice under this clause (d), such Revolving Credit Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans,
such Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower’s right to request,
and such Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored. 

The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14(d) for any such increased
cost or reduction incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand, compensation therefor; provided, that, if the circumstance giving
rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

(e)    Breakage Costs 

In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10 (Interest), the Borrower
shall compensate each Revolving Credit Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Revolving Credit
Lender to fund or maintain such Revolving Credit Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans to the Borrower but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Revolving Credit Lender may sustain
(i) if for any reason (other than solely by reason of such Lender being a Defaulting Lender) a proposed Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in


  
 86 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive Interest Period
does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 2.11 (Conversion/Continuation Option), (ii) if for any reason any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loans is prepaid (including mandatorily
pursuant to Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments)) on a date that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as
a result of any of the events indicated in clause (d) above or (iv) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay Eurocurrency Rate Loans or EURIBOR Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof. The
Revolving Credit Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the amount so determined as to such losses, expenses and
liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such Revolving Credit Lender, absent manifest error. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.14(e) (Breakage Costs)
shall survive payment in full of the Obligations or the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 2.15    Capital Adequacy 

If at any time any Lender determines that (a) the adoption of, or any Change in Law after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date
regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, (b) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule, regulation or order or (c) compliance with any guideline or request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
(whether or not having the force of law) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s (or any corporation controlling such Lender’s) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of
any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to
such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.15 (Capital
Adequacy) shall survive payment in full of the Obligations or the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 2.16    Taxes 

(a)    Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.16, the term
“Lender” includes any Issuer and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 

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

  
 87 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

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

(d)    Indemnification by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient,
within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be
withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.
A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error. 
 (e)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes
and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.2(g) (Assignments and Participations) 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 (e). 

(f)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental
Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such
payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(g)    Status of Lenders. 

(i)    Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to
payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably

requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 2.16(g)(ii)(A),
 (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
  

	 	(ii)    Without	 limiting the generality of the foregoing: 



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

(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (1)    in the
case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form
W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the
“interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

(2)    executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

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

 (4)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the
beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or
Exhibit L-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 L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C)    any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes
a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a
reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to
be made; and 
 (D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S.
federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed
by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include
any amendments made to FATCA after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it
previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that
it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay
to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with


  
 90 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
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 (h) (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph
(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net
after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the
indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes
that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (i)    Survival. Each party’s
obligations under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Credit
Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 (j)    FATCA
Grandfathering. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the
Administrative Agent to treat) all the Loans and Letters of Credit as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

 Section 2.17    Substitution of Lenders 

(a)    In the event that (i) any Revolving Credit Lender makes a claim under Section 2.14(c)
(Increased Costs) or 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), (ii) it becomes illegal for any Revolving Credit Lender to continue to fund or make any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or EURIBOR Rate Loans and such Revolving Credit Lender notifies the Borrower
pursuant to Section 2.14(d) (Illegality), (iii) any Loan Party is required to make any payment pursuant to Section 2.16 (Taxes) that is attributable to a particular Revolving Credit Lender or
(iv) any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may substitute any Lender and, if reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, any other Eligible Assignee
(a “Substitute Institution”) for such Affected Lender hereunder, after delivery of a written notice (a “Substitution Notice”) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender within a reasonable
time (in any case not to exceed 90 days) following the occurrence of any of the events described in clauses (i) through (iv) above that the Borrower intends to make such substitution; provided,
however, that, if more than one Lender claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by the Borrower within 30 days of each other, then the Borrower may substitute
all, but not (except to the extent the Borrower has already substituted one of such Affected Lenders before the Borrower’s receipt of the other Affected Lenders’ claim) less than all, Lenders making such claims. 

(b)    If the Substitution Notice was properly issued under this Section 2.17, the Affected
Lender shall sell, and the Substitute Institution shall purchase, all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents, and the Substitute Institution shall assume, and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of, the Affected
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments and all other prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Lender under the Loan Documents 

  
 91 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
(other than in respect of any damages(which, pursuant to Section 11.5 (Limitation of Liability), do not include exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by
applicable law) in respect of any such unperformed obligations). Such purchase and sale (and the corresponding assignment of all rights and claims hereunder) shall be recorded in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent and shall be
effective on (and not earlier than) the later of (i) the receipt by the Affected Lender of its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Credit Outstandings, together with any other Obligations owing to it, (ii) the receipt by the Administrative
Agent of an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to it and the Borrower whereby the Substitute Institution shall agree to be bound by the terms hereof and (iii) the payment in full to the Affected Lender in cash of all fees,
unreimbursed costs and expenses and indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date. Upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption, the Substitute Institution shall become a “Lender” hereunder for all
purposes of this Agreement having a Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment assumed by it and such Revolving Credit Commitment of the Affected Lender shall be terminated; provided,
however, that all indemnities under the Loan Documents shall continue in favor of such Affected Lender. 
 Each Revolving Credit
Lender agrees that, if it becomes an Affected Lender and its rights and claims are assigned hereunder to a Substitute Institution pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Acceptance to evidence such assignment, together with any Revolving Credit Note (if such Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note) evidencing the Loans subject to such Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however,
that the failure of any Affected Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not render such assignment invalid. 
 
Section 2.18    Incremental Facility 
 (a)    The Borrower may from time to
time after the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date request one or more increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments (each, a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate
amount of all Revolving Credit Commitment Increases (A) after the Amendment No. 5 Effective Date and until (and including) the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period shall not exceed $100,000,000 with such Revolving Credit
Commitment Increases having the same terms and conditions as the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Commitments and (B) on the day after the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period shall not exceed $500,000,000, (ii) no
Revolving Credit Commitment Increases shall be requested later than six months prior to the Scheduled Termination Date, (iii) each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an amount not less than $25,000,000 and (iv) any Revolving
Credit Commitment Increase shall be permitted by the terms of the Senior Notes and the Senior Secured Notes. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any Lender to negotiate for, solicit,
provide or commit to provide any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. Following the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s request to obtain a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender of such proposed Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and of the proposed terms and conditions therefor as provided in the Borrower’s notice with respect thereto. Each such Lender (and each of their Affiliates and Approved Funds)
may, in its sole discretion, commit to participate in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increases by forwarding its commitment therefor to the Administrative Agent in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent and the Borrower shall allocate the commitment under such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase 

  
 92 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
among the Lenders and other Eligible Assignees from which the Administrative Agent has received written commitments with respect thereto. Each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall become
effective on a date agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Credit Extension Date”), which shall be in any case on or after the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in
Section 3.5 (Conditions Precedent to Each Incremental Credit Extension Date). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders and the Borrower, on or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following an
Incremental Credit Extension Date of the effectiveness of a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and shall record in the Register all applicable additional information in respect of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. 

(b)     (i) The commitments under each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be deemed for all purposes part of the
Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) each Lender or Eligible Assignee participating in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall become a Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments and all matters relating
thereto and (iii) the commitments under each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall have the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Commitments (except for any mandatory commitment reductions and corresponding prepayments
applicable after the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period as set forth in Section 2.5 (Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments)). On the Incremental Credit Extension Date for any
Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, each Lender or Eligible Assignee participating in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall purchase and assume from each existing Revolving Credit Lender having Revolving Loans and participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on such Incremental Credit Extension Date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the new Revolving Credit
Commitments (after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase), in the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans, so as to ensure that, on the Incremental Credit Extension Date
after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, each Revolving Lender is owed only its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on such Incremental Credit Extension
Date. 
 Section 2.19    Defaulting
Lender. 
 (a)    Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitments. If a Lender becomes, and during the
period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans: 

(i)    in the case of each Defaulting Lender, the Ratable Portion of such Defaulting Lender with respect to
any such outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans will, subject to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the date such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Revolving
Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitments;
provided, that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall be continuing at the time of such reallocation, (B) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Revolving Credit
Outstandings may not in any event exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (C) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, 

  
 93 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
any Issuer, any Swing Loan Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting
Lender and (D) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the
Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time); 

(ii)    in the case of each Defaulting Lender, to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated
portion”) of the Ratable Portion of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any such outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause
(i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than 5 Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Issuer and/or the Swing Loan Lender, as the case may be), (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of
the Borrower to the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans, or (B) in the case of Swing Loans, prepay (subject to clause (iii) below) and/or Cash Collateralize in full
the unreallocated portion thereof, or (C) make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lender, as the case may be, in their reasonable discretion, to protect them against the
risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and 
 (iii)    in
the case of each Defaulting Lender, any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX
(Events of Default) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.6 (Right of Set-Off) shall be applied at such
time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement; second, to the payment on a pro
rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuer or any Swing Loan lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Lenders’ Letters of Credit with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, as the
Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative
Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with
respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuer’s future Letters of Credit with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; sixth, to the
payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuers or Swing Loan Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuers or Swing Loan Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of
such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting 

  
 94 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in
Section 3.2 (Conditions to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, all
Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and
funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments without giving effect to this Section 2.19. Any
payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(iii) shall be
deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (b)    Right
to Give Drawdown Notices. In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower fails to Cash Collateralize or prepay its obligations in respect of Letter of Credit
Obligations or Swing Loans within 5 Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 2.19(a)(ii) (Defaulting Lender), any Issuer or Swing Loan Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is
irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, Notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.2 (Borrowing Procedures) in such amounts and in such times as may be
required to (i) pay matured Reimbursement Obligations, (ii) repay an outstanding Swing Loan, and/or (iii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of Letters of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans in an amount at
least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swing Loan. 

(c)    Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitments. The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment
of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.13 (Payments and
Computations) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided, that such
termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuer, the Swing Loan Lenders or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

(d)    Cure. If the Borrower, Administrative Agent, the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lenders, as applicable, agree in
writing in their discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified
in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.19(a) (Defaulting Lender)), such Lender
will, to the extent applicable, purchase such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders at par and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause such Lender’s Ratable Portion to be on
a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitment, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will become a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided, that no
adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the 

  
 95 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to
Section 11.22 (Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions), no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to
Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. 

Section 2.20    Benchmark Replacement Setting 

(a)    Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any
Hedging Contract shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting)), if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early
Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred for a currency prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of a then-current Benchmark for such currency, then
(i) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace
such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document and (ii) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a)(iii) or (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark
Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any such Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such
Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written
notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Requisite Lenders. 
 (b)    Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 (c)    Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the
Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any Benchmark Replacement Date and the related Benchmark Replacement, (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iii) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a
Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (iv) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. For the avoidance of doubt, any notice required to be delivered by the Administrative Agent as set forth in this
Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting) may be provided, at the option of the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion), in one or more notices and may be delivered together with, or as part of any amendment which
implements any Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this
Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance
or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting). 

  
 96

AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 (d)    Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR, Eurocurrency Rate or
EURIBOR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the
regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify
the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant
to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no
longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously
removed tenor. 
 (e)    Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the
commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Benchmark for Dollars, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made, converted or
continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or
at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, to the extent a component of Base Rate is based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, such Benchmark or tenor will not be
used in any determination of Base Rate. 
 (f)    Disclaimer. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept
any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (i) the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency
Rate” or “EURIBOR Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation any Benchmark Replacement implemented hereunder), (ii) the composition or
characteristics of any such Benchmark Replacement, including whether it is similar to, or produces the same value or economic equivalence to the Eurocurrency Rate or EURIBOR Rate or any other then-current Benchmark or have the same volume or
liquidity as did the Eurocurrency Rate or EURIBOR Rate or any other then-current Benchmark, (iii) any actions or use of its discretion or other decisions or determinations made with respect to any matters covered by this
Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting) including, without limitation, whether or not a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, the removal or lack thereof of unavailable or
non-representative tenors, the implementation or lack thereof of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the delivery or non-delivery of any notices required by
clause (c) above or otherwise in accordance herewith, and (iv) the effect of any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.20 (Benchmark Replacement Setting).

 In addition to the other conditions precedent herein set forth, if
any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the Issuer will not be required to Issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms

authorize any action set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above; or 
 (g)    one or
more judgments or orders (or other similar process) involving, (i) in the case of money judgments, an aggregate amount whose Dollar Equivalent exceeds $100,000,000, and (ii) in the case of
non-monetary judgments, such judgments, in the aggregate, that would result in a Material Adverse Effect, in each case, to the extent not covered by insurance (excluding insurance where the applicable insurer
has disputed its obligations to pay thereunder), shall be rendered against one or more of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and such judgment, order or similar process shall continue unsatisfied and unstayed for a period of 60 days; or 

(h)    an ERISA Event shall have occurred that, individually or when taken together with all other ERISA Events existing
at that time, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; or

Lien, or any Loan Party shall so state in writing; or 
 (k)    there shall occur any Change of Control. 

Section 9.2    Remedies 

During the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent (a) may, and, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, shall, by
notice to the Borrower declare that all or any portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments be terminated, whereupon the obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender to make any Loan and each Issuer to Issue any Letter of Credit shall immediately
terminate and (b) may, and, at the request of the Requisite Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts and Obligations payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable,
whereupon the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;
provided, however, that upon the occurrence of the Events of Default specified in Section 9.1(f) (Events of Default), (x) the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender to make Loans and
the commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender and Issuer to Issue or participate in Letters of Credit shall each automatically be terminated and (y) the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall automatically become
and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. In addition to the remedies set forth above, the Administrative Agent may exercise any remedies
provided for by the Collateral Documents in accordance with the terms thereof or any other remedies provided by applicable law. 

Section 9.3    Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit

 At any time (i) upon the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (ii) after the Revolving Credit Termination Date when the
aggregate funds on deposit in Cash Collateral Accounts shall be less than 103% of the Letter of Credit Obligations, (iii) as may be required by Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments), the Borrower shall pay to the
Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s office referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), for deposit in a Cash Collateral Account, (x) in the case of
clauses (i) and (ii) above, the amount required to that, after such payment, the aggregate funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Accounts equals or exceeds 103% of the sum of all outstanding Letter of Credit
Obligations and (y) in the case of clause (iii) above, the amount required by Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments). The Administrative Agent may, from time to time after funds are deposited in
any Cash Collateral Account, apply funds then held in such Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, in accordance with Section 2.9(d) (Mandatory Prepayments) and Section 2.13(g) (Payments
and Computations), as shall have become or shall become due and payable by the Borrower to the Issuers or Lenders in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give written notice of any such
application; provided, however, that the failure to give such written notice shall not invalidate any such application.

Section 9.4    Rescission 

If at any time after termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Borrower shall pay all
arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest,
at the rates specified herein) and all Events of Default and Defaults (other than non-payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be
remedied or waived pursuant to Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.), then upon the written consent of the Requisite Lenders and written notice to the Borrower, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the
acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled; provided, however, that such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the
preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the Issuers to a decision that may be made at the election of the Requisite Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right
to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

(a)    Each Lender and each Issuer hereby appoints Citi as the Administrative Agent hereunder and each Lender and each
Issuer authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise
such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to
which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents and, in the case of the Collateral Documents, to act as agent for the Lenders, Issuers and the
other Secured Parties under such Collateral Documents. 
 (b)    As to any matters not expressly provided for by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully
protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and each Issuer; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to personal liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuers with respect
to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender and each Issuer prompt notice of each notice given to it by any Loan Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents. 
 (c)    In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,
the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuers

Act of 1939 (as amended, the “Trust Indenture Act”) in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by any Loan Party, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in satisfaction of or in respect
of any Obligation of such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or on behalf of Citi in its capacity as the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Loan Party under any Loan Document (other than Citi or an Affiliate of Citi)
and which is applied in accordance with the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be exempt from the requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act. 

(e)    The Arranger shall have no obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan
Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, designation of each “joint bookrunner” and each
“co-documentation agent”, in each case, as listed on the cover page of this Agreement, is for title purposes only and each such “joint bookrunner” and
“co-documentation agent” in such respective capacity shall have no obligations or duties whatsoever under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Loan Party, any Lender or any Issuer, and
shall have no rights separate from its rights as a Lender. 

Section 10.2    Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

 None of the Administrative Agent, any of its Affiliates or any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall
be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it, him, her or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for its, his, her or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the

or representation to any Lender or Issuer and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuer for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Group Member in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, (e) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire either as to the performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as to the financial condition of any Loan Party or as
to the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, (f) shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuer for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the attachment,
perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto and (g) shall incur no liability

Section 10.3    Posting of Approved Electronic Communications

 (a)    Each of the Lenders, the Issuers and each Group Member agree that the Administrative Agent may, but
shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders and Issuers by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on DebtDomainTM or a
substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 

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

 (c)    THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM
AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND
“AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS
AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS,
ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (THE “AGENT AFFILIATES”) WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY
OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC
PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN
THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. NO
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR
OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT AFFILIATES IN CONNECTION
WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. 

(d)    Each of the Lenders, the Issuers and each Group Member agree that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may
be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and
policies. 
 Section 10.4    The Administrative Agent
Individually 
 With respect to its Ratable Portion, Citi shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is
subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders”, “Revolving Credit Lenders”, “Requisite 


  
 134 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include, without limitation, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, a
Revolving Credit Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. Citi and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, any Loan Party as if Citi were not acting as the
Administrative Agent. 
 Section 10.5    Lender Credit
Decision 
 Each Lender and each Issuer acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent
or any other Lender, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and each other Loan Party in connection with the making and continuance of the Loans and with the issuance of the Letters of
Credit. Each Lender and each Issuer also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent 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 and other Loan Documents. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or the Issuers,
the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness
of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate thereof or any employee or agent of any of the foregoing. 

Section 10.6    Indemnification 

Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates, and each of their respective directors,
officers, employees, agents and advisors (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from and against such Revolving Credit Lender’s aggregate Ratable Portion of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, the Administrative Agent or
any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Revolving Credit Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or such Affiliate’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Administrative Agent in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or another Loan Party. 

Section 10.7    Successor Administrative Agent 

(a)    The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.
Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall 

  
 135 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment,
within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, selected from among the Lenders. In either
case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default). Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative
Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the
retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. After such resignation, the retiring Administrative
Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this Article X as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

(b)    In addition to the foregoing, if a Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender,
and the Borrower shall not have satisfied its obligations set forth in Section 2.19 (Defaulting Lender), the Issuer and/or the Swing Loan Lender may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
resign as Issuer or Swing Loan Lender, respectively, effective at the close of business New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than 30 days after the date of such notice); provided, that such resignation
by the Issuer will have no effect on the validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit then outstanding or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Letter of Credit or otherwise
to the Issuer; and provided further, that such resignation by the Swing Loan Lender will have no effect on its rights in respect of any outstanding Swing Loans or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement
with respect to any such outstanding Swing Loan. 

Section 10.8    Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral
Documents 
 (a)    Each Lender and each Issuer agrees that any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the
Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Administrative Agent or
the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders, Issuers
and other Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and the Issuers with
respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Collateral Documents, (ii) execute and deliver each Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by any Group Member, (iii) act
as collateral agent for the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein, provided, however, that
the Administrative Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender and Issuer to act as collateral sub-agent 

  
 136 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens with respect to the Collateral, including any Deposit Accounts
maintained by a Loan Party with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender or such Issuer, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, including the making of Protective Advances in an aggregate amount not to exceed
the lesser of $25,000,000 and the aggregate amount of the unused Revolving Credit Commitments (unless, in the case of Protective Advances, the Administrative Agent has been instructed by the Requisite Lenders not to make Protective Advances),
(v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically
restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto,
applicable law or otherwise. 
 (b)    Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby consents to the release and hereby
directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, release or subordinate) any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and
the Issuers against any of the following: 
 (i)    all of the Collateral and all Loan Parties, upon
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations that the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable (and, in
respect of contingent Letter of Credit Obligations, with respect to which cash collateral has been deposited or a back-up letter of credit has been issued, in either case in the appropriate currency and on
terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuers); 
 (ii)    any assets that
are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(d) or (e) (Liens, Etc.); 

(iii)    any part of the Collateral sold or disposed of by a Loan Party if such sale or disposition is
permitted by this Agreement (or permitted pursuant to a waiver of or consent to a transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement); and 

(iv)    any part of the Collateral that is the property of a Loan Party that is subsequently designated as
an Excluded Subsidiary, or is otherwise disposed of if such disposition is permitted by this Agreement; provided, that immediately before and after giving effect to such release no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 Any Loan Party that is subsequently designated as an Excluded Subsidiary, or is otherwise disposed of, if such disposition is permitted by this
Agreement, shall be automatically released from any of its obligations under the Guaranty, Security Agreement and all other Loan Documents to which it is a party, unless (a) immediately before or after giving effect to such release a Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (b) the Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Credit after giving effect to such release and any related reduction in Borrowing Base capacity. 

Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and
do such other things as are necessary to release Liens, or otherwise evidence the release of obligations, to be released pursuant to this Section 10.8 promptly upon the effectiveness of any such release.

available in respect of any Secured Obligation arising under any Hedging Contract or Cash Management Obligation or that is otherwise owed to Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers (collectively, “Related
Obligations”) solely on the condition and understanding, as among the Administrative Agent and all Secured Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the
extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Administrative Agent shall hold, and have the right and power to act with respect to, the Guaranty and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the
holders of the Related Obligations, but the Administrative Agent is otherwise acting solely as agent for the Lenders and the Issuers and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever
to any holder of Related Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to the Guaranty, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection, priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed solely by
the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and no separate Lien, right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Secured Party under any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation,
(c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, by the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders, each of whom shall be entitled to

Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party or as to any Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured or is
otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, (d) no holder of Related Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, to the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be

discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or
otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or

prepayment or repayment; and

repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 10.11(b). 

(c)    Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any
and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party from any source, against any
amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. 

(d)    In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any
reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient
who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Lender at
any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Revolving Credit Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment
Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Revolving Credit Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment
Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the
Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent
and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative
Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,
hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Revolving Credit Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and
(iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, subject to Section 11.2, sell any Loans
acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of
such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of
doubt, no Erroneous Payment

Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Revolving Credit Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the
Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each
Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”). 
 (e)    The parties
hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect
to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. 

(f)    To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous
Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the
return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. 

(g)    Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.11 (Erroneous
Payment) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(b)    The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute
amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to 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. 
 (c)    If, in
connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of other Revolving Credit Lenders whose consent is required is

as long as the Revolving Credit Lender acting as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower’s request, any Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall have
the right with the Administrative Agent’s consent and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have 

  
 143 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall,
upon the Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to the Revolving Credit Lender acting as the Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee, all of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and Revolving Credit Outstandings of such Non-Consenting Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees with respect
thereto through the date of sale; provided, however, that such purchase and sale shall be recorded in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent and shall not be effective until (x) the Administrative Agent shall have
received from such Eligible Assignee an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower whereby such Eligible Assignee shall agree to be bound by the terms hereof and (y) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payments of all Loans held by it and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of the sale. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees that, if
it becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment an Acceptance to evidence such sale and purchase and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any
Revolving Credit Note (if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note) subject to such Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however, that the failure of any
Non-Consenting Lender to execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not render such sale and purchase (and the corresponding assignment) invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register. 

(d)    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken
into account in determining whether the Requisite Lenders, Super-Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Requisite Lenders” and “Super-Majority
Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the
date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing
to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(e)    No Real Property shall be taken as Collateral unless the Lenders receive 45 days advance notice and each Lender
confirms to the Administrative Agent that it has completed all flood due diligence, received copies of all flood insurance documentation and confirmed flood insurance compliance as required by the Flood Laws or as otherwise satisfactory to such
Lender. At any time that any Real Property constitutes Collateral, no modification of a Loan Document shall add, increase, renew or extend any loan, commitment or credit line hereunder until the completion of flood due diligence, documentation and
coverage as required by the Flood Laws or as otherwise satisfactory to all Lenders. 

Section 11.2    Assignments and Participations 

(a)    Each Revolving Credit Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a
portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans and the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that (i) if any such assignment shall
be of the assigning

Credit Outstandings and Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) the aggregate amount being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event (if
less than the assignor’s entire interest) be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, except, in either case, (A) with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or (B) if such
assignment is being made to a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such Lender, (iii) if such Eligible Assignee is not, prior to the date of such assignment, a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender, such assignment shall be
subject to the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Issuer (which consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuer shall each not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (iv) each Revolving Credit
Lender shall establish and maintain a record of whether such assignment is an assignment of Revolving Credit Outstandings or Revolving Credit Commitments under any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase that is subject to any mandatory commitment
reductions and/or prepayment provided herein (including, for avoidance of doubt, the automatic reduction and corresponding prepayment after the last day of the Amendment No. 5 Incremental Period as set forth in Section 2.5
(Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments)); provided, however, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent
within 5 Business Days of having received notice thereof; and provided, further, that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.2, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any
assignment occurring when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In addition, any Lender may make, carry or transfer Revolving Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such
Lender, solely to facilitate any Borrowing in an Alternative Currency. 
 (b)    The parties to each such assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Revolving Credit Note (if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a
Revolving Credit Note) subject to such assignment. Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and recording in the Register of any Assignment and Acceptance and, other than in respect of assignments made pursuant to Section 2.17
(Substitution of Lenders) and Section 11.1(c) (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.), the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 from and after the effective date
specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender and, if such Revolving Credit Lender were an Issuer, of such Issuer hereunder and thereunder, (ii) the Revolving Credit Notes (if any) corresponding to the Loans assigned
thereby shall be transferred to such assignee by notation in the Register and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and
Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such
assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Revolving Credit Lender shall cease to be a party
hereto).

 (c)    The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to
in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in the Register the names and addresses of the Lenders and Issuers and the principal amount (and
stated interest) of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to each Lender from time to time and the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Lender. Any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall not be effective
until such assignment is recorded in the Register. 
 (d)    Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed
by an assigning Revolving Credit Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record or cause to be recorded the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower. Within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if requested by such assignee, execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent, new Revolving Credit Notes to such assignee in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender has surrendered any
Revolving Credit Note for exchange in connection with the assignment and has retained Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, new Revolving Credit Notes to the assigning Revolving Credit Lender in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments
retained by it hereunder. Such new Revolving Credit Notes shall be dated the same date as the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes and be in substantially the form of Exhibit B (Form of Revolving Credit Note). 

(e)    In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Revolving
Credit Lender may do each of the following: 
 (i)    grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to
make all or any part of any Loan that such Revolving Credit Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to
the extent that such Loans are made) the obligation of such Revolving Credit Lender to make such Loans thereunder, provided, however, that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special
Purpose Vehicle to make Loans hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an option, and then only in
accordance with the relevant option agreement) and (y) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain responsible to the other parties for the performance of its obligations under the
terms of this Agreement and shall remain the holder of the Obligations for all purposes hereunder; and 

(ii)    assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or
hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) without notice to or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, any Federal Reserve Bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve
Board) and (B) without consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, (1) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of, the holders of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Securities and (2) any Special Purpose Vehicle to which
such Revolving Credit Lender has granted an option pursuant to clause (i) above; 

  
 146 













 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 provided, however, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Revolving Credit Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in clause (i) above and except, in the case of a subsequent foreclosure pursuant to an assignment as collateral, if such foreclosure is made in compliance
with the other provisions of this Section 11.2 other than this clause (e) or clause (f) below. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year
and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, such party shall not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Special Purpose Vehicle
that has been granted an option pursuant to this clause (e) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (such agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations). The terms of the designation
of, or assignment to, such Special Purpose Vehicle shall not restrict such Lender’s ability to, or grant such Special Purpose Vehicle the right to, consent to any amendment or waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to the
departure by the Borrower from any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of such Special Purpose Vehicle except, as long as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured Parties shall
continue to, and shall be entitled to continue to, deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement, to the extent any such consent would reduce the principal amount of, or the rate of
interest on, any Obligations, amend this clause (e) or postpone any scheduled date of payment of such principal or interest. Each Special Purpose Vehicle shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) and 2.16 (Taxes) and of Section 2.14(d) (Illegality) as if it were such Lender; provided, however, that anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, no Borrower shall, at any time, be obligated to make under Section 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), 2.16 (Taxes) or 2.14(d) (Illegality) to any such Special Purpose Vehicle and any such Lender
any payment in excess of the amount the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect of such interest if such Special Purpose Vehicle had not been assigned the rights of such Lender hereunder; and provided,
further, that such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have no direct right to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. 

(f)    Each Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or
more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit). The terms of such participation shall not, in any
event, require the participant’s consent to any amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or refraining from exercising any
powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce the obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other modification or consent would (i) reduce the
amount, or postpone any date fixed for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such participant under the Loan Documents, to which such participant would otherwise be entitled under such participation or (ii) result in
the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral other than in accordance with Section 10.8(b) (Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents). In the event of the sale of any participation by any Lender,
(w) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties for the performance of such obligations, (y) such Lender shall remain the holder
of such Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement and (z) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement.

 (g)    Any Issuer may at any time assign its rights and obligations
hereunder to any other Lender by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Issuer and such Lender, subject to the provisions of Section 2.7(c) (Evidence of Debt)
relating to notations of transfer in the Register. If any Issuer ceases to be a Lender hereunder by virtue of any assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.2, then, as of the effective date of such cessation, such
Issuer’s obligations to Issue Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.4 (Letters of Credit) shall terminate and such Issuer shall be an Issuer hereunder only with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit issued prior
to such date. 
 Section 11.3    Costs and Expenses 

(a)    The Borrower agrees upon demand to pay, or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Arranger for, all of the
Administrative Agent’s or such Arranger’s, as the case may be, reasonable internal and external audit, legal, appraisal, valuation, filing, document duplication and reproduction and investigation expenses and for all other reasonable

of any Loan Document or the Administrative Agent’s periodic audits of the Group Members, as the case may be, (ii) the preparation, negotiation, execution or interpretation of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction
or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III (Conditions Precedent), any Loan Document or any proposal letter or commitment letter issued in connection therewith, or the making of the Loans hereunder,
(iii) the creation, perfection or protection of the Liens under any Loan Document (including any reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses for local counsel in various jurisdictions), (iv) the ongoing administration of this Agreement and
the Loans, including consultation with attorneys in connection therewith and with respect to the Administrative Agent’s rights and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (v) the protection, collection or enforcement
of any Obligation or the enforcement of any Loan Document, (vi) the commencement, defense or intervention in any court proceeding relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, the Related
Documents, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (vii) the response to, and preparation for, any subpoena or request for document production with which the Administrative Agent is served or deposition or other proceeding in which the
Administrative Agent is called to testify, in each case, relating in any way to the Obligations, any Loan Party, any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries, the Related Documents, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (viii) any amendment,
consent, waiver, assignment, restatement, or supplement to any Loan Document or the preparation, negotiation and execution of the same. The foregoing notwithstanding, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower
shall only be obligated to reimburse the Administrative Agent and Lenders for two audits and/or appraisals in any Fiscal Year. 

(b)    The Borrower further agrees to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and Issuers upon
demand for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (including allocated costs of internal counsel and costs of settlement),

clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, the parties’ obligations

connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III (Conditions Precedent) (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and
all claims, damages, liabilities, obligations, losses, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, disbursements and expenses, joint or several, of any kind or nature (including reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of financial and legal
advisors to any such Indemnitee) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in connection with or arising out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not such investigation, litigation or
proceeding is brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its directors, security holders or creditors or any such Indemnitee, director, security holder or creditor is a party thereto, whether direct, indirect, or consequential and whether based on any
federal, state or local law or other statutory regulation, securities or commercial law or regulation, or under common law or in equity, or on contract, tort or otherwise, in any manner relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any other Loan
Document, any Obligation, any Letter of Credit, any Related Document, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant to any thereof or the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit or in connection with any
investigation of any potential matter covered hereby (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any liability under this Section 11.4 to an
Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter that has resulted primarily from (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or (B) a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against such Indemnitee for
material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any Loan Document (other than any such claim brought against an Indemnitee acting in an agency capacity), in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a
final non-appealable judgment or order. Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” include (i) all Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising from or connected with the past,

Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (49 U.S.C. § 9601 et seq.) and applicable state property transfer laws, whether, with respect to any such matter, such Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any
leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor in interest to any Group Member, or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Group Member by virtue of foreclosure, except, with respect to those matters referred to in
clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, to the extent (x) incurred following foreclosure by the Administrative Agent, either Arranger, any Lender or any Issuer, or the Administrative Agent,
the Arrangers, any Lender or any Issuer having become the successor in interest to any Group Member and (y) attributable solely to acts of the Administrative Agent, such Arranger, such Lender or such Issuer or any agent on behalf of the
Administrative Agent, such Arranger, such Lender or such Issuer. 
 (b)    The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Arranger, the Lenders and each Issuer for, and hold the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Issuer harmless from and against, any and all claims for brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation made against
the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and the Issuers for any broker, finder or consultant with respect to any agreement, arrangement or understanding made by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 (c)    The Borrower, at the request of any Indemnitee, shall
have the obligation to defend against any investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, in each case contemplated in clause (a) above, and the Borrower, in any event, may participate in the defense
thereof with legal counsel of the Borrower’s choice. In the event that such Indemnitee requests the Borrower to defend against such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, the Borrower shall promptly do so and such
Indemnitee shall have the right to have legal counsel of its choice participate in such defense. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by such Indemnitee in defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial
Action, shall vitiate or in any way impair the Borrower’s obligation and duty hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee. 

(d)    The Borrower agrees that any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this
Agreement (including pursuant to this Section 11.4) or any other Loan Document shall (i) survive payment in full of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any time an Indemnitee
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

Section 11.5    Limitation of Liability 

(a)    The Borrower agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Loan
Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective equity holders or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in the other Loan Documents and Related Documents, except to the extent such
liability is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no
event, however, shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). The Borrower hereby waives,
releases and agrees (each for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

LENDER, ISSUER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING
DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES
(WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN
PARTY OR ANY AGENT AFFILIATE’S TRANSMISSION OF APPROVED ELECTRONIC
COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR ANY USE OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC

Section 11.6    Right of Set-off

 Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and so long as the Requisite Lenders have requested that
the Administrative Agent declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9.2, or the Obligations have become immediately due and payable without notice pursuant to
Section 9.2, then each Lender and each Affiliate of a Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Group Member against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing
whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and even though such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such
set-off and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such
set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.6 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of
set-off) that such Lender may have. 

Section 11.7    Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

(a)    If any Revolving Credit Lender (directly or through an Affiliate thereof) obtains any payment (whether voluntary,
involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off (including pursuant to Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off)) or otherwise) of the Loans
owing to it, any interest thereon, fees in respect thereof or amounts due pursuant to Section 11.3 (Costs and Expenses) or 11.4 (Indemnities) (other than payments pursuant to
Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurocurrency Rate Loans), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.16 (Taxes)) or otherwise receives any Collateral or
any “Proceeds” (as defined in the Security Agreement) of Collateral (other than payments pursuant to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurocurrency Rate Loans), 2.15 (Capital
Adequacy) or 2.16 (Taxes)) (in each case, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off (including pursuant to Section 11.6
(Right of Set-off)) or otherwise) in excess of its Ratable Portion of all payments of such Obligations obtained by all the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Revolving Credit Lender (a “Purchasing
Lender”) shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (each, a “Selling Lender”) such participations in their Loans or other Obligations as shall be necessary to cause such Purchasing Lender to share the excess payment
ratably with each of them.

 (b)    If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing
Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling Lender shall repay to the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an
amount equal to such Selling Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender’s required repayment in relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of any
interest or other amount paid or payable by the Purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. 

(c)    The Borrower agrees that any Purchasing Lender so purchasing a participation from a Selling Lender pursuant to this
Section 11.7 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 11.9    No Waiver; Remedies 

No failure on the part of any Lender, Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies
provided by law. 
 Section 11.10    Binding Effect 

This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative

Titles

whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto, except when used to reference a section. Any reference to the number of a clause, sub-clause or subsection hereof immediately followed
by a reference in parenthesis to the title of the Section containing such clause, sub-clause or subsection is a reference to such clause, sub-clause or subsection and
not to the entire Section; provided, however, that, in case of direct conflict between the reference to the title and the reference to the number of such Section, the reference to the title shall govern absent manifest error. If any
reference to the number of a Section (but not to any clause, sub-clause or subsection thereof) is followed immediately by a reference in parenthesis to the title of a Section, the title reference shall govern
in case of direct conflict absent manifest error. 

Section 11.16    Execution in Counterparts 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed

hereof. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or electronic records, each of which shall be of
the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including
the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. A set of the copies of this Agreement
signed by all parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to

any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or

containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 11.18, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or
participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to
any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any

to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of
delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.18 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised
the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

Section 11.19    Patriot Act Notice 

Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, including the name and address of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the other Loan

 Section 11.20    No Lender
Parties Implied Duties 
 The Administrative Agent, each co-documentation agent, each
Arranger, each joint bookrunner, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates (for the purposed of this Section 11.20 each a “Lender Party” and, collectively the “Lender Parties”),
may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an
advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender Party, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the
Lender Parties, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party,
its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender Party has advised, is currently
advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and

(y) each Lender Party is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges
and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan
Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. 

Section 11.21    Special Provisions Relating to Certain Currencies

 (a)    All funds to be made available to Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement in Euros or Sterling
shall be made available to Administrative Agent in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to such account with such bank in such principal financial center in such Participating Member State (or London) as Administrative Agent
shall from time to time nominate for this purpose. 
 (b)    In relation to the payment of any amount denominated in
Euros or Sterling, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Loan Party or any of the Lenders for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by
Administrative Agent if Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant and necessary steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds (in Euros or
Sterling) to the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the Participating Member State which the Borrower or, as the case may be, any Lender shall have specified for such purpose. In this Section 11.21,
“all relevant steps” means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as Administrative Agent may from time to time determine for the purpose of
clearing or settling payments of Euros or Sterling. Furthermore, and without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Loan Party or any of the Lenders with respect to the foregoing matters except to the extent
resulting from (x) its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined by the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (or pursuant to a binding arbitration
award or as otherwise agreed in writing by the affected parties) or (y) a breach of any obligations under any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, agent, trustee or advisor of the
Administrative Agent as determined by the final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (or pursuant to a binding arbitration award or as otherwise agreed in writing by the affected
parties). 
 (c)    If for purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in
Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could
purchase Dollars with such other currency at the spot rate of exchange quoted by the Administrative Agent at 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given, for the purchase of Dollars for delivery two
Business Days thereafter. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to any Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment
Currency”) other than that in which sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following
receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement

 (a)    In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC
(each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such
Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special

Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against
such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or
a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a
