Revolving Loans of any Class shall be made by the Revolving Lenders of such Class ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Percentages on the date such Loans are made hereunder. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required

hereunder. 

  
 67 








 (b) Subject to Section 2.14, 

(i) each Borrowing (other than Swingline Loans) shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, in each case as
the applicable Borrower may request in accordance herewith; provided that only the Company may request ABR Loans and ABR Loans will only be available in U.S. dollars;

provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be entitled to any amounts payable under
Section 2.15 solely in respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise and existing at the time of such exercise. 
 (c)
Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is at least equal to the Borrowing Minimum and an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple; provided that an ABR Borrowing to the Company may be made in an aggregate amount that
is equal to the aggregate available Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). Borrowings of more than one Type and Class
may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of fifteen Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings outstanding. 

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any
Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the applicable Maturity Date. 
 (e) The Borrowers’
obligations to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.04(b)(iv) and shall, if requested by such Lender,
promptly following request also be evidenced (i) in the case of Term Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the applicable Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit G, with blanks appropriately completed in

 (f) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in
respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes will endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect the
Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Loans. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this
Section 2.02, or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its


  
 68 








 
Loans to a Borrower shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of a Borrower to pay the Loans (and all related Obligations) incurred by a Borrower which would otherwise be evidenced
thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the various Loan Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding
Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (f). At any time when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Loans, the applicable Borrower shall (at its expense) promptly
execute and deliver to the respective Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans

Borrower (which may vary based upon whether such Swingline Loan is a U.S. Swingline Loan or a Foreign Swingline Loan) by depositing the same, in immediately available funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower or the Company

 70 








 
Local Time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, if the applicable Foreign Swingline Lender or the
Administrative Agent determine, in their respective sole discretion, that Foreign Swingline Loans will not be available for the applicable Foreign Borrower on a same-day basis, then such Foreign Swingline Lender shall not be required to extend any
Foreign Swingline Loans to such Foreign Borrower. 
 (c) A Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Applicable Agent not later
than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding to such Swingline Lender. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount
of Swingline Loans in which such Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Applicable Agent will give notice thereof to each applicable Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of

whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply
with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Applicable Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Applicable Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of

Lender from the applicable Borrower (or other party on behalf of the applicable Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by such Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the
Applicable Agent; any such amounts received by such Agent shall be promptly remitted by such Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to such Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear;
provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to such Swingline Lender or to such Applicable Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. The
purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of any default in the payment thereof. 

(d) The Company may, at any time and from time to time, designate as additional Swingline Lenders one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to
serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as a Swingline Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent and the Company, executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and such designated Swingline Lender, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of a
Swingline Lender under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as a lender of Swingline Loans hereunder.

to, and are hereby authorized to, enter into an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Swingline Lender providing for the automatic advance by the applicable Swingline Lender of Swingline Loans
under the conditions set forth in such agreement (an “Autoborrow Agreement”), which shall be in addition to the 

  
 71 








 
conditions set forth herein. At any time an Autoborrow Agreement is in effect, the requirements for borrowings of Swingline Loans set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph shall not apply,
and all Swingline Borrowings under the Autoborrow Agreement shall be made in accordance with the Autoborrow Agreement. For purposes of determining the applicable Swingline Exposure at any time during which an Autoborrow Agreement is in effect, the
applicable Swingline Exposure shall be deemed to include the maximum amount available to be borrowed under the Autoborrow Agreement.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company or a Foreign Borrower may request the issuance, for its
own account and for the benefit of the Company, the applicable Foreign Borrower, or any Subsidiary of the Company, as applicable, of Letters of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars or in any Alternative Currency, in a form reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent, the applicable Global Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Company to, or entered into by the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, with the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the
terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions.
To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal (other than an automatic extension in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section) or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Company or the applicable
Foreign Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the relevant Global
Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date
of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the currency in
which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such
Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a
Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, shall be
deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) the U.S. Dollar
Equivalent of the total outstanding Revolving Loans, Foreign Swingline Loans and LC Exposure, in each case denominated in Alternative Currencies, shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit, (iii) the aggregate face amount of all
outstanding Letters of Credit shall not exceed the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $75,000,000 and (iv) the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank exceed at any time such Issuing Bank’s Letter
of Credit Subcommitment. 
 (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination upon notice from
the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Issuing Bank) after the date of the issuance of such Letter
of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year (unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by the Company and the Issuing Bank) after such 

  
 72 








 
renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) any Letter of Credit with
an expiration date one (1) year after issuance may provide for the automatic renewal or extension thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above, subject to the
immediately succeeding clause (2)) including pursuant to customary automatic renewal provisions agreed upon by the applicable Borrower and the Issuing Bank, subject to a right on the part of the Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal from
occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit in advance of any such renewal, and (2) a Letter of Credit may expire up to one year beyond the Revolving Facility Maturity Date (A) on terms and conditions acceptable
to the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank and (B) if such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized by the Company in an amount equal to 105% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, or otherwise dealt with in a
manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, in each case on terms, conditions and manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, each in its sole discretion, at least 10 days prior to the Revolving
Facility Maturity Date. 
 (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit
increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each such Revolving Lender, and each such Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing
Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Applicable Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by the
Issuing Bank in U.S. Dollars and (ii) the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates in effect on the date such payment is required, of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank in an Alternative Currency, and in each case, not
reimbursed by the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Company or the applicable Foreign
Borrower, as the case may be, for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was refunded in an Alternative Currency, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Revolving Lender acknowledges
and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension
of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Company or the applicable
Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Global Agent, as applicable, an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 4:00 p.m., Local Time, on the next
Business Day following the date that such LC Disbursement is made; provided that the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03
or 2.04 that such payment be financed with (x) an ABR Revolving Borrowing or U.S. Swingline Loan if for the Company and denominated in U.S. Dollars, or (y) a Foreign Swingline Loan for the applicable Foreign Borrower if for a
Foreign Borrower and denominated in U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency, in any case in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Company’s or the applicable Foreign Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be
discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing, U.S. Swingline Loan, or Foreign Swingline Loan, as the case may be. If the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, fails to make such payment when due, then
(i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of 

  
 73 








 
Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the Company’s or the applicable Foreign Borrower’s (as the case may be) obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement
shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was due, of such LC Disbursement and (ii) in the case of each LC Disbursement, the
Administrative Agent or the applicable Global Agent, as the case may be, shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, in respect
thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each such Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Global Agent, as applicable, its Revolving
Credit Percentage of the payment then due from the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and
Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent or the relevant Global Agent, as applicable, shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank
in U.S. Dollars or U.S. Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, the amounts so received by it from such Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Global Agent, as applicable, of any payment from the
Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Global Agent, as applicable, shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made
payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans, U.S. Swingline Loans or Foreign Swingline Loans, as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower of its
obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the Company’s or the applicable Foreign Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the relevant
Global Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in U.S. Dollars, the Company or the applicable
Foreign Borrower shall, at its option and in compliance with all applicable exchange control restrictions, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Global Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank or
Revolving Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in U.S. Dollars, in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is
made, of such LC Disbursement. 
 (f) Obligations Absolute. Each of the Company’s and the applicable Foreign Borrower’s
obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all
circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable
discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Company’s or the applicable Foreign Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Agents, the Lenders nor the Issuing Banks, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability
or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any
error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or 

  
 74 








 
relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the
control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Company and the applicable Foreign Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower that are caused
by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or
willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting
the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make
payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the
terms of such Letter of Credit. 
 (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof,
examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, the relevant Global Agent, the Company and the applicable Foreign Borrower by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Company of its
obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (h) Interim
Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid
amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) if
such LC Disbursement is made in U.S. Dollars, and at all times following the conversion to U.S. Dollars of an LC Disbursement made in an Alternative Currency pursuant to paragraph (e) above, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR
Revolving Loans, and (ii) if such LC Disbursement is made in an Alternative Currency, at all times prior to its conversion to U.S. Dollars pursuant to paragraph (e) above, at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable
Issuing Bank to be the cost to such Issuing Bank of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time; provided that, if the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower fails to
reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest
accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Company, the
Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Company shall
pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and
obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by 

  
 75 








 
it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous
Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement
with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing under clauses (h) or (i) under Article
VII, or if any other Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Required Revolving Lenders make a demand under this Section, and the Company and the applicable Foreign Borrower receive notice (and such Foreign Borrower shall be
deemed to receive any notice received by the Company) from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Company shall deposit in an account with the
Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in U.S. Dollars in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that
(i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Company is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative
Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable,
without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clause (h) or (i) under Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated
using the Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the Company or such cash collateralization otherwise becomes due and payable. The Company also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as
and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall
have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the
Administrative Agent and (unless an Event of Default shall be continuing) at Company’s request in Permitted Investments and at the Company’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such
investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be
held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Company for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders), be applied to satisfy
other obligations of the Company under this Agreement. If the Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be
returned to the Company within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. To the extent the Company does not fulfill its obligations under this Section with respect to a Letter of Credit issued for the
account of a Foreign Borrower, such Foreign Borrower shall satisfy such obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit. 
 (k) Issuing
Bank Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Global Agents (i) on the first Business Day of each month, the daily activity (set forth
by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding month, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each
Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters


  
 76 








 
of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed),
it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative
Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on
which the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower, as the case may be, fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such LC Disbursement
and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
 (l)
Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that the Company or the applicable Foreign Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to
reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Global Agent, as applicable, in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has
deposited cash collateral pursuant to paragraph (j) above, if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders are at the time or thereafter become
required to pay to the Applicable Agent and the Applicable Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements
made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, in each case, automatically and with no further
action required, be converted into the U.S. Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and
after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the Global Agents, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in U.S. Dollars.

 SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds
in the applicable currency by 11:00 a.m., Local Time, to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated for such purpose for Loans of such Class and currency by notice to the applicable Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans
shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Applicable Agent will make such Loans available to the relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower maintained by the
Applicable Agent (i) in New York City, in the case of Loans made to the Company, (ii) in Brussels, Belgium, in the case of Loans made to the Foreign Borrowers party hereto as of the Effective Date, (iii) subject to the limitations set
forth in Section 2.21, in such location(s) as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Company with respect to any Foreign Borrower not identified in clause (ii) hereof, or (iv) or in any case, by wire transfer to
an account specified by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request that is not in contravention of this Agreement; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in
Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank. 
 (b) Unless the Applicable Agent
shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon 

  
 77 








 
such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable
Agent, then the applicable Lender and such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such
Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount or (ii) in the case of such
Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. The forgoing shall be without prejudice to any
claim the Company may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 2.07.
Interest Elections. 
 (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the
case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type (to the extent such Borrowing is denominated in
U.S. Dollars) or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to
Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower, or the
Company on its behalf, shall notify the Applicable Agent of such election by telephone (or, if to the Administrative Agent, by e-mail in accordance with Section 10.01) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under
Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic (or electronic) Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and
shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Applicable Agent of a written Interest Election Request in substantially in the form of Exhibit F and signed by the relevant Borrower, or the Company on its behalf.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit any Borrower to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with
Section 2.02(d) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments or currency pursuant to which such Borrowing was made. 

(c) Each telephonic, electronic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with
Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are
being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each
resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall
be a Business Day; 
 (iii) the Type of the resulting Borrowing; and 

  
 78 








 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period
to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed
to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Applicable Agent shall advise each Lender holding a Loan to which such request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of
the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in U.S. Dollars and made to the
Company, be converted to a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration and (ii) in the case of any other Eurocurrency Borrowing, be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one
month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of
Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing borrowed by the Company in U.S. Dollars may be converted to or continued at the end of the then current Interest Period as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each
Eurocurrency Borrowing shall (A) in the case of such a Borrowing by the Company in U.S. Dollars, be converted into an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and (B) in the case of any other Eurocurrency
Borrowing, be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 SECTION 2.08. Termination
and Reduction of Commitments. 
 (a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit
Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, and the Initial Term Loan Commitments shall terminate upon the close of business on the earlier of (a) the Effective Date and (b) the date on which the Term Loans are
made. 
 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that
(i) each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in U.S. Dollars and not less than the Borrowing Minimum for a
Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in U.S. Dollars, and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with
Section 2.11, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (c) The
Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or
reduction, specifying the effective date of such election. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments delivered by the Company
may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such
condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Credit 

  
 79 








 
Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made ratably among the Revolving Lenders with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments. 

SECTION 2.09. Incremental Commitments. 

(a) At any time and from time to time prior to the Latest Maturity Date, the Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which
the Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish to each Lender), request that one or more Persons (which may include the then-existing Lenders) (A) offer to increase their Revolving Credit Commitments or to make additional Revolving Credit
Commitments (if they are not already Lenders) (such increased and/or additional Revolving Credit Commitments being a “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment”) or (B) enter into one or more tranches of term loans (such
additional term loans being an “Incremental Term Loan” and together with any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, a “Incremental Commitments”) under this paragraph (a), it being understood that (x) if such
offer is to be made by a Person that is not already a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have consented to such Person being a Lender hereunder to the extent such consent would be required pursuant to Section 10.04(b) in the event of
an assignment to such Person (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and (y) the Company may agree to accept less than the amount of any Incremental Commitment so requested; provided that the minimum aggregate principal amount
accepted shall equal the lesser of (i) (x) $10,000,000 if such Incremental Commitment is denominated in U.S. Dollars or (y) €10,000,000 if such Incremental Commitment is denominated in Euro or (ii) the offered Incremental
Commitment. The minimum aggregate principal amount of any Incremental Commitment shall be $10,000,000 or €10,000,000, as applicable, (or such lesser amount as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent). In no event shall the aggregate amount of
all Incremental Commitments pursuant to this paragraph (a) (i) exceed the Incremental Amount available at the time such Incremental Term Loans are funded or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are established or (ii) cause the
failure of the Company to comply with the limitation on incurrence of Indebtedness by Foreign Borrowers set forth in Section 6.01(a). The Company may arrange for one or more banks or other financial institutions, which may include any
Lender, to extend Revolving Credit Commitments, increase their existing Revolving Credit Commitments or provide Incremental Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the Incremental Commitment. In the event that one or more of such
Persons offer to increase or enter into such Revolving Credit Commitments, and such Persons, the Company, any other applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree as to the amount of such Revolving Credit Commitments to be allocated to the
respective Persons making such offers and the fees (if any) to be payable by the Company in connection therewith, the Company, any other applicable Borrower, such Persons, the Administrative Agent and any other Applicable Agent shall execute and
deliver an Incremental Assumption Agreement. Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment, restatement or amendment and restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as
appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers, each Lender participating in such tranche, each Person joining this Agreement as Lender by participation in such tranche, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Term
Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Company and the Administrative Agent, to effect
the provisions of this Section 2.09. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments (or
in the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender) or tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall become effective under this Section 2.09 unless on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitment (i) the
Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company that the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.02 shall have been satisfied or
waived by the Required Lenders; provided, that in the event that any tranche of Incremental Term Loans is used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, to the extent the 

  
 80 








 
Incremental Term Loan Lenders participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans agree, (x) the condition set forth in Section 4.02(b) shall be (I) tested at the time
of the execution of the acquisition agreement related to such Limited Condition Acquisition (provided, that such Incremental Term Loan Lenders shall not be permitted to waive any Default or Event of Default then existing or existing after giving
effect to such tranche of Incremental Term Loans) and (II) tested at funding of such Incremental Term Loans only with respect to those Events of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII and (y) the condition set forth
in Section 4.02(a) shall be limited to the accuracy of the Specified Representations and those representations of the seller or the target company (as applicable) included in the acquisition agreement related to such Limited Condition
Acquisition that are material to the interests of the Lenders and only to the extent that the Company or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such acquisition agreement as a result of a failure of such
representations to be accurate (it being understood that of the representations and warranties under the Loan Documents, only the Specified Representations shall be required to be accurate as a condition to the funding of Incremental Term Loans
being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, all of the representations and warranties under the Loan Documents shall nonetheless be made) and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents from the Company consistent
with those delivered on the Effective Date as to the organizational power and authority of the Borrowers to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such Incremental Commitment. Nothing contained in this Section 2.09 shall constitute, or
otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, or provide Incremental Term Loans, at any time. 

(c) The applicable Borrower and each Incremental Term Loan Lender and/or Incremental Revolving Lender shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term Loan Lender and/or Incremental
Revolving Credit Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender. Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the applicable Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that: 

(i) any (v) commitments to make additional Initial U.S. Term B Loans shall have the same terms as the Initial U.S. Term B
Loans, and shall form part of the same Class of Initial U.S. Term B Loans, (w) commitments to make additional Initial Euro Term B Loans shall have the same terms as the Initial Euro Term B Loans, and shall form part of the same Class of Initial
Euro Term B Loans, (x) commitments to make additional Initial Term A Loans shall have the same terms as the Initial Term A Loans, and shall form part of the same Class of Initial Term A Loans, (y) commitments to Term Loans with pricing,
maturity, amortization, participation in mandatory prepayments and/or other terms different from the Initial Term Loans (“Other Incremental Term Loans”) shall be subject to compliance with clauses (ii) through (viii) below
and (z) Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall have the same terms as the then outstanding Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (or, if more than one Class of Revolving Credit Commitments is then outstanding, the Revolving Credit
Commitments with the then latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date) and shall require no scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the Latest Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments, 

(ii) the Other Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.09 shall be secured by
Liens that rank equal in priority with the Liens securing the Initial Term Loans, 
 (iii) (x) the final maturity date of any
such Other Incremental Term A Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to Term A Loans in effect at the date of incurrence of such Other Incremental Term A Loans, and, except as to pricing, amortization, final


  
 81 








 
maturity date, participation in mandatory prepayments and ranking as to security (which shall, subject to the other clauses of this proviso, be determined by the Company and the Incremental Term
Loan Lenders in their sole discretion), shall have the same terms as the Initial Term A Loans or such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (y) the final maturity date of any such Other Incremental Term
B Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date applicable to Term B Loans in effect at the date of incurrence of such Other Incremental Term B Loans and, except as to pricing, amortization, final maturity date, participation in mandatory
prepayments and ranking as to security (which shall, subject to the other clauses of this proviso, be determined by the Company and the Incremental Term Loan Lenders in their sole discretion), shall have the same terms as the Initial U.S. Term B
Loans or the Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, or such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, 

(iv) (x) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such Other Incremental Term A Loans shall be no shorter than the
remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term A Loans with the longest remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity and (y) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such Other Incremental Term B Loans shall be no shorter than the
remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term B Loans with the longest remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity, 

(v) with respect to any Other Incremental Term B Loan, the All-in Yield shall be as agreed by the respective Incremental Term
Loan Lenders and the Company, except that the All-in Yield in respect of any such Other Incremental Term B Loan may exceed the All-in Yield in respect of the Initial U.S. Term B Loans (if such Other Incremental Term B Loan is denominated in U.S.
Dollars) or the Initial Euro Term B Loans (if such Other Incremental Term B Loan is denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars) by no more than 0.50%, or if it does so exceed such All-in Yield (such difference, the “Term Yield
Differential”) then the Applicable Rate (or the “LIBOR floor” as provided in the following proviso) applicable to such Initial U.S. Term B Loans or Initial such Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, shall be increased such that after
giving effect to such increase, the Term Yield Differential shall not exceed 0.50%; provided, that to the extent any portion of the Term Yield Differential is attributable to a higher “LIBOR floor” being applicable to such Other
Incremental Term B Loans, such floor shall only be included in the calculation of the Term Yield Differential to the extent such floor is greater than the Adjusted LIBO Rate in effect for an Interest Period of three months’ duration at such
time, and, with respect to such excess, the “LIBOR floor” applicable to the outstanding Initial U.S. Term B Loans or Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, shall be increased to an amount not to exceed the “LIBOR floor”
applicable to such Other Incremental Term B Loans prior to any increase in the Applicable Rate applicable to such Initial U.S. Term B Loans or Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, then outstanding, 

(vi) (x) such Other Incremental Term A Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro
rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Initial Term A Loans in any mandatory prepayment hereunder and (y) such Other Incremental Term B Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less
than pro rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Initial U.S. Term B Loans and the Initial Euro Term B Loans in any mandatory prepayment hereunder, 

(vii) there shall be no borrower (other than the Borrowers) or guarantor (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) in respect of
any Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, and 

  
 82 








 (viii) Other Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments
shall not be secured by any asset of the Company or its Subsidiaries other than then Collateral. 
 Each party hereto hereby agrees that,
upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitments evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 10.02. Any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document that is necessary to effect the provisions of this Section 2.09 and any such collateral and
other documentation shall be deemed “Loan Documents” hereunder and may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Company’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto. Each
of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that (i) all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Incremental Term Loans), when originally made, are
included in each Borrowing of the outstanding applicable Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis, and (ii) all Revolving Loans in respect of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, when originally made, are included in each
Borrowing of the applicable Class of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis. 
 SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans;
Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) (i) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Applicable Agent for the accounts of the
applicable Lenders the then unpaid principal amount of each Borrowing of such Borrower no later than the applicable Maturity Date; and (ii) each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to each Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Swingline Loan made by such Swingline Lender on the earlier of the Revolving Facility Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day
of a calendar month and is at least five (5) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made to a Borrower, such Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding to
such Borrower; provided, further, that so long as the conditions for a Borrowing have been satisfied, a Borrower may use Revolving Borrowing proceeds to repay a Swingline Loan. Each Borrower agrees to repay the principal amount of each
Loan made to such Borrower and the accrued interest thereon in the currency of such Loan. The Company shall repay the Initial Term A Loans on the last Business Day of each February, May, August and November to occur during the term of this Agreement
(commencing on the applicable day of the first full fiscal quarter of the Company after the Effective Date) and on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day (each
such date being referred to as an “Initial Term A Loan Installment Date”), in an aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans equal to (i) 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans incurred
on the Effective Date on each Initial Term A Loan Installment Date during the first, second and third years after the Effective Date, (ii) 1.875% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans incurred on the Effective Date on
each Initial Term A Loan Installment Date during the fourth year after the Effective Date and thereafter until the Initial Term A Facility Maturity Date and (iii) in the case of such payment due on the Initial Term A Facility Maturity Date, an
amount equal to the then unpaid principal amount of such Initial Term A Loans outstanding. The Company shall repay principal of outstanding Initial U.S. Term B Loans on the last Business Day of each February, May, August and November to occur during
the term of this Agreement (commencing on the applicable day of the first full fiscal quarter of the Company after the Effective Date) and on the Initial U.S. Term B Facility Maturity Date or, if any such date is not a Business Day, on the
immediately preceding Business Day (each such date being referred to as an “Initial U.S. Term B Loan Installment Date”), in an aggregate principal amount of such Initial U.S. Term B Loans equal to (A) in the case of quarterly
payments due prior to the Initial U.S. Term B Facility Maturity Date, an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial U.S. Term B Loans incurred on the Effective Date, and (B) in the case of such payment due on the
Initial U.S. Term B Facility Maturity Date, an amount equal to 

  
 83 








 
the then unpaid principal amount of such Initial U.S. Term B Loans outstanding. The Luxembourg Borrower shall repay principal of outstanding Initial Euro Term B Loans on the last Business Day of
each February, May, August and November to occur during the term of this Agreement (commencing on the applicable day of the first full fiscal quarter of the Company after the Effective Date) and on the Initial Euro Term B Facility Maturity Date or,
if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day (each such date being referred to as an “Initial Euro Term B Loan Installment Date”), in an aggregate principal amount of such Initial Euro Term B
Loans equal to (A) in the case of quarterly payments due prior to the Initial Euro Term B Facility Maturity Date, an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Initial Euro Term B Loans incurred on the Effective Date, and
(B) in the case of such payment due on the Initial Euro Term B Facility Maturity Date, an amount equal to the then unpaid principal amount of such Initial Euro Term B Loans outstanding. In the event that any Other Term Loans are made, the
applicable Borrower shall repay such Other Term Loans on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the related Incremental Assumption Agreement, Extension Amendment or Refinancing Amendment (each such date being referred to as an “Other Term
Loan Installment Date”). 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Type
and currency thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received
by any Agent hereunder for the accounts of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the accounts
maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it to any Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the relevant
Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Company and the
Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form
payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Any Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice
in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section, in a minimum amount equal to (i) $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 (or the U.S. Dollar Equivalents thereof) in excess thereof in the case of any Borrowing denominated in
U.S. Dollars or an Alternative Currency other than Euro or Pounds Sterling, (ii) €500,000 or any integral multiple of €250,000 in excess thereof in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Euro or (iii) £500,000 or any
integral multiple of £250,000 in excess thereof in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Pounds Sterling; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit prepayment in an amount less than the


  
 84 








 
denominations specified above if the amount of such prepayment constitutes the remaining outstanding balance of the Borrowing being prepaid. 

(b) Beginning on the Effective Date, the Company shall apply (1) all Net Proceeds (other than Net Proceeds of the kind described in the
following clause (2)) within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof to prepay Term Loans in accordance with clauses (c) and (d) of Section 2.10 and (2) all Net Proceeds from any issuance or incurrence of
Refinancing Notes, Refinancing Term Loans and Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments (other than solely by means of extending or renewing then existing Refinancing Notes, Refinancing Term Loans and Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments without
resulting in any Net Proceeds), no later than three (3) Business Days after the date on which such Refinancing Notes, Refinancing Term Loans and Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments are issued or incurred, to prepay Term Loans and/or
Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with Section 2.23 and the definition of “Refinancing Notes” (as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than 2.00:1.00 on a
Pro Forma Basis on the date on which a prepayment pursuant to clause (1) would otherwise be required as evidenced by a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Company delivered to the Company, the Company may elect not to make such
prepayment and such Net Proceeds may be retained by the Company and used for any purpose otherwise permitted under this Agreement. 
 (c)
Not later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which the annual financial statements are, or are required to be, delivered under Section 5.01(a) with respect to each Excess Cash Flow Period (commencing with Excess Cash Flow
Period ending August 31, 2016), the Company shall calculate Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period and, if and to the extent the amount of such Excess Cash Flow exceeds $0, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to (i) the
Required Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow minus (ii) the sum of (a) to the extent not financed using the proceeds of funded Indebtedness, the amount of any voluntary payments of Term Loans and amounts used to repurchase
outstanding principal of Term Loans during such Excess Cash Flow Period (plus, without duplication of any amounts previously deducted under this clause (ii), the amount of any such voluntary payments and amounts so used to repurchase principal of
Term Loans after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period but before the date of prepayment under this clause (c)) pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and Section 2.24 (it being understood that the amount of any such payments pursuant to
Section 2.24 shall be calculated to equal the amount of cash used to repay principal and not the principal amount deemed prepaid therewith) and (b) to the extent not financed using the proceeds of funded Indebtedness, the amount of
any voluntary payments of Revolving Loans to the extent that Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated or reduced pursuant to Section 2.08 by the amount of such payments to the repayment of the Initial Term Loans. Such calculation will
be set forth in a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Company delivered to the Administrative Agent setting forth the amount, if any, of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, the amount of any required prepayment in respect thereof and
the calculation thereof in reasonable detail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Total Net Leverage Ratio is less than 2.00:1.00 on a Pro Forma Basis on the date on which a prepayment pursuant to the first sentence of this
paragraph would otherwise be required as evidenced by a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Company delivered to the Company, the Company may elect not to make such prepayment and such Net Proceeds may be retained by the Company and
used for any purpose otherwise permitted under this Agreement. 
 (d) In the event and on such occasion that (i) the sum of the
Revolving Credit Exposures exceeds the total Revolving Credit Commitments, or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures denominated in Alternative Currencies exceeds the Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Borrowers shall
prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j), in the case of Revolving Credit Exposure in
respect of the Company, or deposit cash collateral in 

  
 85 








 
an account with the applicable Global Agent), in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that if such excess arises solely as a result of currency rate fluctuations and such
excess is not greater than 5% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, such prepayment or deposit, as the case may be, shall not be required; provided further, that the Foreign Borrowers shall not be required to make any payment pursuant
to this Section 2.11(d) in an amount that exceeds the Foreign Obligations. 
 (e) Prior to any optional prepayment of Borrowings
hereunder, the applicable Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section. 

(f) The applicable Borrower, or the Company on behalf of the applicable Borrower, shall notify the Applicable Agent (and, in the case of
prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the applicable Swingline Lender) by telephone (or by e-mail in accordance with Section 10.01 with respect to the Administrative Agent, and in any event as confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment of a
Borrowing hereunder (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of such prepayment, and (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing or a Swingline Loan, not later
than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of
optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is
revoked in accordance with Section 2.08(c). Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Applicable Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount
that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Revolving
Borrowing and each voluntary prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Term Loans included in the prepaid Term Loan Borrowing in such order of application as directed by the Company. Prepayments shall be accompanied by
(i) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and (ii) break funding payments pursuant to Section 2.16. 

(g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11, (A) to the extent that any or all of the Net Proceeds of any Asset
Sale or Recovery Event by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(1) (a “Foreign Asset Sale/Recovery Event”) or Excess Cash Flow are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from
being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.11 but may be retained by the
applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably
required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and an
amount equal to such repatriated Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof)
to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 to the extent otherwise provided herein and (B) to the extent that the Company has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any
Foreign Asset Sale/Recovery Event or Excess Cash Flow would result in a material adverse tax cost liability to the Company and its Subsidiaries (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such
repatriation) with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary until such time that such amounts may be repatriated without incurring such
liability. 

  
 86 








 (h) Any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or
(c) shall be applied so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among the Initial Term Loans and the Other Term Loans, if any, pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Initial Term
Loans and Other Term Loans, if any, to reduce amounts due on the succeeding Term Loan Installment Dates for such Classes (it be understood that to the extent any Class of Initial Term Loans or Other Term Loans is not entitled to mandatory
prepayments under Section 2.11(b) or (c), such Class will be excluded in such pro rata calculations); provided, that, subject to the pro rata application to Loans outstanding within any respective Class of
Loans, (x) with respect to mandatory prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(1) and 2.11(c), any Class of Other Incremental Term Loans may receive less than its pro rata share thereof (so long as
the amount by which its pro rata share exceeds the amount actually applied to such Class is applied to repay (on a pro rata basis) the outstanding Initial Term Loans and any other Classes of then outstanding Other
Incremental Term Loans, in each case to the extent the respective Class receiving less than its pro rata share has consented thereto and (y) the Company shall allocate any repayments pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(2) to
repay the respective Class or Classes being refinanced, as provided in said Section 2.11(b)(2). Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything herein to the contrary, any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to
Section 2.11(b)(1) with Net Proceeds of a Foreign Asset Sale/Recovery Event may, at the election of the Company, be applied so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated solely to the Initial Euro Term B Loans to reduce
amounts due on the succeeding Term Loan Installment Dates for such Initial Euro Term B Loans (and without the requirement of application to any other Term Loans to the extent that the amount of such Net Proceeds does not exceed the amount of Initial
Euro Term B Loans outstanding prior to such prepayment, and if otherwise, the amount by which such Net Proceeds exceeds the amount of the Initial Euro Term B Loans shall be applied the prepayment of the other outstanding Term Loans as required
hereunder, subject to Section 2.11(g)). Any optional prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(a) shall be applied to the remaining installments of the Term Loans under the applicable Class or Classes as the
Company may in each case direct. 
 (i) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term
Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(1) or 2.11(c) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably
detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term Loan Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice and of such Term Loan Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on
such Lender’s pro rata share of each relevant Class of the Term Loans). Any Term Loan B Lender (a “Declining Term Loan Lender,” and any Term Loan B Lender which is not a Declining Term Loan Lender, an
“Accepting Term Loan Lender”) may elect, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Term Loan B Lender’s receipt of notice
from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment, that the full amount of any mandatory prepayment otherwise required to be made with respect to the Initial U.S. Term B Loans or the Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, held by such Term
Loan B Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(1) or 2.11(c) not be made (the aggregate amount of such prepayments declined by the Declining Term Loan Lenders, the “Declined Prepayment Amount”). If a Term Loan Lender
fails to deliver notice setting forth such rejection of a prepayment to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be
deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. In the event that the Declined Prepayment Amount is greater than $0, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term Loan A Lender of the amount of such
Declined Prepayment Amount and of any such Term Loan A Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (based on such Lender’s pro rata share of the Initial Term A Loans) and apply such Declined Prepayment Amount
to the prepayment of the Initial Term A Loans. In the event that the Declined Prepayment Amount is greater than $0 after being applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans, the 

  
 87 








 
Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Accepting Term Loan Lender of the amount of such remaining Declined Prepayment Amount and of any such Accepting Term Loan Lender’s ratable
portion of such remaining Declined Prepayment Amount (based on such Lender’s pro rata share of the Initial U.S. Term B Loans or the Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, (excluding the pro rata share of Declining
Term Loan Lenders)). Any such Accepting Term Loan Lender may elect, by delivering, no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Accepting Term Loan Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding
such additional prepayment, a written notice, that such Accepting Term Loan Lender’s ratable portion of such remaining Declined Prepayment Amount not be applied to repay such Accepting Term Loan Lender’s Initial U.S. Term B Loans or the
Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, in which case the portion of such remaining Declined Prepayment Amount which would otherwise have been applied to such Initial U.S. Term B Loans or the Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, of the
Declining Term Loan Lenders shall instead be retained by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing and anything herein to the contrary, any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(1) with Net Proceeds of a Foreign
Asset Sale/Recovery Event may, at the election of the Company, be applied so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated solely to the Initial Euro Term B Loans to reduce amounts due on the succeeding Term Loan Installment Dates for
such Initial Euro Term B Loans (and without the requirement of application to any other Term Loans to the extent that the amount of such Net Proceeds does not exceed the amount of Initial Euro Term B Loans outstanding prior to such prepayment, and
if otherwise, the amount by which such Net Proceeds exceeds the amount of the Initial Euro Term B Loans shall be applied the prepayment of the other outstanding Term Loans as required hereunder, subject to Section 2.11(g)), with any
Declined Payment Amount in respect thereof being made available to the Company to be used in accordance with the following sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company may, at its option, apply any amounts retained in accordance with the two
immediately preceding sentences to prepay loans in accordance with Section 2.11(a) above or for any other purpose permitted by this Agreement. 

SECTION 2.12. Fees. 
 (a)
The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter (commencing on the last Business Day of the first full fiscal quarter after the Effective Date) and on the date on
which the Revolving Credit Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) in U.S. Dollars on the daily amount of the applicable Available Unused Commitment of such Lender
during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Effective Date or ending with the date on which the last of the Commitments of such Lender shall be terminated) at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee. All Commitment Fees
shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last) in a year of 360 days. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall begin accruing on the Effective Date and shall cease to accrue on
the date on which the last of the Commitments of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of February, May, August and November of each year and on the date on
which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any Commitment Fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable
on demand. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 

(b) The Company agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect
to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the actual daily amount of such Revolving Lender’s LC Exposure
(excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the 

  
 88 








 
Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any
LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank a fronting fee equal to 0.125% times the actual daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) with respect to Letters of Credit
issued by such Issuing Bank, during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as each
Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of
February, May, August, and November of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date
on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall
be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and the last day). For purposes
of computing the actual daily amount of any LC Exposure for any period under this Section 2.12(b) the actual daily amount of the Alternative Currency LC Exposure for such period shall be calculated by multiplying (i) the actual
daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is denominated) by (ii) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last
Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the Administrative Agent deems appropriate. 
 (c) The Company agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers. The Company and the other
Borrowers jointly and severally agree to pay to the Global Agents, for their own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Global Agents. 

(d) If any Repricing Event occurs prior to the date occurring twelve months after the Effective Date, the Company agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Term Loan Lender with Initial U.S. Term B Loans and/or Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, that are subject to such Repricing Event (including any Term Loan Lender which is replaced
pursuant to Section 2.20(c) as a result of its refusal to consent to an amendment giving rise to such Repricing Event), a fee in an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial U.S. Term B Loans and/or Initial
Euro Term B Loans subject to such Repricing Event. Such fees shall be earned, due and payable upon the date of the occurrence of the respective Repricing Event. The applicable Borrower shall not be permitted, prior to the Effective Date, to prepay
the Initial U.S. Term B Loans or Initial Euro Term B Loans, as applicable, or to amend this Agreement if such prepayment or amendment would constitute a Repricing Event, unless the fee described in the first sentence of this
Section 2.12(d) is paid substantially simultaneously therewith by the Company or arrangements for such payment reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent have been made. 

(e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Applicable Agent (or to the applicable
Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of Commitment Fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

  
 89 








 SECTION 2.13. Interest. 

(a) The Revolving Loans comprising each ABR Revolving Borrowing (other than each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base
Rate plus the Applicable Rate for ABR Revolving Loans. The Term Loans comprising each ABR Term Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for ABR Term Loans. U.S. Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the U.S. Swingline Rate plus the Applicable Rate for ABR Revolving Loans. Foreign Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Foreign Swingline Rate plus the Applicable Rate for
Eurocurrency Revolving Loans. 
 (b) The Revolving Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing by any Borrower shall bear
interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Revolving Loans. The Term Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Term Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted
LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Term Loans. 
 (c)
Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default the Required Lenders of each Facility may, at their option, by notice to the Company (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any
provision of Section 10.02(b) requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Borrowing under such Facility shall bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable thereto plus
2% per annum, (ii) the Letter of Credit participation fee provided for in Section 2.12(b) shall be increased by 2% per annum, and (iii) all other then outstanding Obligations which are then due and owing (such as fees
and expenses) bear interest at the rate applicable to ABR Term Borrowings as provided in paragraph (b) of this Section plus 2% per annum; provided that, during the continuance of an Event of Default described in clause (h) or
(i) of Article VII, the interest rates set forth in clause (i) above, the increase in the Letter of Credit participation fee set forth in clause (ii) above, and the accrual of interest described in clause (iii) above shall
be applicable to all Borrowings, Letters of Credit and other amounts without any election or action on the part of any Agent or any Lender. 

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans,
upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other
than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of
any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) Subject to Section 2.13(f), all interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest
(i) computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) and (ii) for Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and such
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 90 








 (f) The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation
under this Agreement. The rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields. 

(g) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if and to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction in which a Borrower is
organized or from which Loans are made are applicable to interest payable under this Agreement, no interest on the credit advanced will be payable in excess of that permitted by such laws. 

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing in any
currency: 
 (a) the Applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and
reasonable (including, without limitation, by means of an Interpolated Rate) means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 

(b) the Applicable Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 

then the Applicable Agent shall give notice thereof to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or electronic means as promptly as practicable
thereafter and, until the Applicable Agent notifies the applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or
continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing in such currency shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (A) if such Borrowing is a
Eurocurrency Borrowing in U.S. Dollars by the Company, as an ABR Borrowing, or (B) in the case of any other Eurocurrency Borrowing, as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Applicable Agent shall determine, after consultation with
the Lenders, adequately reflects the costs to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Loan (with the understanding that after such rate is determined, such Borrowing shall bear interest at such determined rate plus the Applicable Rate for
Eurocurrency Loans of the applicable Class), and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in such currency, unless the applicable Borrower notifies the Applicable Agent in writing prior to the date on which such Borrowing
is requested to be made that it wishes to revoke such Borrowing Request, (A) if such Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing in U.S. Dollars by the Company, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing, and (B) in the case of any other
Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Applicable Agent shall determine adequately reflects the costs to the Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (with the understanding that
after such rate is determined, such Borrowing shall bear interest at such determined rate plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Loans of the applicable Class). 

SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs; Illegality. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

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

  
 91 








 (ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any
other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or 

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, and (B) Excluded Taxes on its loans,
letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto); 
 and the result of
any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other
Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then
the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional
costs incurred or reduction suffered as reasonably determined by such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and generally consistent with similarly
situated customers of the such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 2.15, after consideration of such factors as such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other
Recipient, as applicable, then reasonably determines to be relevant; provided that none of such Lender, Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, shall be required to disclose any confidential or proprietary information in
connection therewith. 
 (b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made
by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then
from time to time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for
any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate
such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided, that any such
certificate claiming amounts described in clause (x) or (y) of the definition of “Change of Law” shall, in addition, state the basis upon which such amount has been calculated and certify that such Lender’s or Issuing
Bank’s demand for payment of such costs hereunder, and such method of allocation is not inconsistent with its treatment of other borrowers, which as a credit matter, are similarly situated to the Company and which are subject to similar
provisions. The Company shall pay or cause the other Borrowers to pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

(d) Promptly after any Lender or Issuing Bank has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this
Section 2.15, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify the Company thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or
Issuing Bank’s right to demand 

  
 92 








 
such compensation; provided that the Company and the other Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing
Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include
the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 (e) If, in any applicable jurisdiction outside of the United States, an Issuing Bank or any
Revolving Lender or any Designated Lender of a Revolving Lender determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Lender or its
applicable Designated Lender to (i) perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as an Issuing Bank, Revolving Lender or Designated Lender of a Revolving Lender, as applicable, (ii) to fund or
maintain its participation in any Revolving Loan or (iii) issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any Obligations under the Revolving Facility, such Person shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, then, upon the
Administrative Agent notifying the Company, and until such notice by such Person is revoked, any obligation of such Person to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Obligation under the Revolving Facility shall be
suspended, and to the extent required by applicable Law, cancelled (but in each case, only to the extent it is the general policy of such Person to take the foregoing actions with respect to similarly situated borrowers in such applicable
jurisdiction under similar circumstances under agreements permitting such Person to take such actions). Upon delivery of such notice, such Person shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign to one or more assignees permitted under
Section 10.04 all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement as relate to the Revolving Facility (including all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Loans at the time owing to it). To the extent that such Person has
been unable to consummate an assignment contemplated by the foregoing sentence after its use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, such Person shall notify the Borrowers and the Borrowers shall, (A) repay that Person’s participation
in the Revolving Loans or other applicable Obligations under the Revolving Facility on the last day of the Interest Period for each Revolving Loan or other Obligation under the Revolving Facility occurring after the Administrative Agent has notified
the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by such Person in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by applicable Law) and (B) take all reasonable
actions requested by such Person to mitigate or avoid such illegality. 
 SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of
(a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan to a Loan of a
different Type or Interest Period other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (other than on the Effective Date), (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice
delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the
case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender (it being understood that the deemed amount shall not exceed the actual amount) to be the excess, if any, of
(i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last
day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), 

  
 93 








 
over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for
deposits in the applicable currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this
Section 2.16, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.17.
Taxes. 
 (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor 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 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 or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor 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 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been
made. 
 (b) The Loan Parties and Foreign Subsidiary Guarantors shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for the payment by the Administrative Agent of, any Other Taxes. 

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant
to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor 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. 
 (d)
Indemnification by the Loan Parties and Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor. The Loan Parties or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor (as applicable) shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 Business Days after written 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 relevant Loan Party or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor 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) 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 Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably
requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the


  
 94 








 
Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the
Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the previous two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of
such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below shall not be required in 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. Each Lender agrees that if any form, certification or other documentation it previously delivered
pursuant to this Section 2.17(e) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legally ineligibility to
do so. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.17(e) to the contrary no Lender shall be required to deliver any form, certification or other documentation that it is not legally eligible to provide. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, with respect to any Loan made to the Company, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent), two executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying
that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, deliver to the Company
and the Administrative Agent 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 Company or the Administrative Agent), two executed originals
of 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 with respect to payments under, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to such payments pursuant to such tax treaty; 

(2) 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 O-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
such 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) IRS
Form W-8BEN-E; or 
 (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner
(including a Foreign Lender that is a partnership or participating Lender), 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 O-2 or Exhibit O-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents
that would be required from each beneficial owner (or partner of such partnership) pursuant to clauses (B)(1) – (3) above if such beneficial owner (or partner) were a Lender, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign


  
 95 








 
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 O-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any
Foreign Lender shall, deliver to the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly
completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company 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 Company and the Administrative Agent
at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company 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 Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this
Agreement. 
 (iii) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties, the Foreign Guarantor
Subsidiaries, and any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.17(e). 

(f) 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 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to
the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any
interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph
(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) to the extent that such payment 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. 

  
 96 








 (g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall
survive the resignation or replacement of any Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

(h) VAT. 

(i) Any and all payments by any party to any Loan Document to any Agent or Lender under any Loan Document shall be deemed to be
exclusive of any VAT. Subject to clause (ii) below, if any such VAT were to be chargeable on any supply made by any Agent or Lender under any Loan Document, such party shall (A) pay an amount equal to the amount of charged VAT in addition
to and at the same time as paying the consideration and (B) deliver an appropriate VAT invoice. 
 (ii) If VAT is or
becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Agent or Lender (the “Supplier”) to any other Agent or Lender (the “Receiver”) under any Loan Document, and any party to any Loan Document other than the Receiver (the
“Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Receiver in respect of that
consideration): 
 (A) where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant taxing authority for the VAT, the
Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the VAT. The Receiver must (where this Section 2.17(h)(ii)(A) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant
Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Receiver receives from the relevant taxing authority which the Receiver reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and 

(B) where the Receiver is the person required to account to the relevant taxing authority for the VAT, the Relevant Party must
promptly, following demand from the Receiver, pay to the Receiver an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Receiver reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant
taxing authority in respect of that VAT 
 (iii) Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse a Lender for any
costs or expenses, that party must also at the same time pay and indemnify the Lender against all VAT incurred by the Lender in respect of those costs or expenses but only to the extent that the Lender (acting reasonably) determines that it is not
entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of such VAT. 
 (iv) Any reference in this
Section 2.17(h) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the
person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European
Union) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a party shall be construed as a reference to that party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which
that party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be). 

  
 97 








 (v) In relation to any supply made by any Agent or Lender to any party under any
Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Agent or Lender, that party must promptly provide the applicable Agent or Lender with details of that party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection
with the recipient’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply. 
 (i) For purposes of this Section 2.17, the
term “Lender” includes any Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank. 
 SECTION 2.18. Extensions of Loans and Commitments. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers made from time to time by the Company to all
Lenders of any Class of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments on a pro rata basis (based, in the case of an offer to the Lenders under any Class of Term Loans, on the aggregate outstanding Term Loans of such Class and, in the
case of an offer to the Lenders under any Revolving Facility, on the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Commitments under such Revolving Facility, as applicable), and on the same terms to each such Lender (“Pro Rata Extension
Offers”), the Company is hereby permitted to consummate transactions with individual Lenders that agree to such transactions from time to time to extend the maturity date of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class and to
otherwise modify the terms of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class pursuant to the terms of the relevant Pro Rata Extension Offer (including, without limitation, increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such
Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Loans). For the avoidance of doubt, the reference to “on the same terms” in the preceding sentence shall mean, (i) in
the case of an offer to the Lenders under any Class of Term Loans, that all of the Term Loans of such Class are offered to be extended for the same amount of time and that the interest rate changes and fees payable with respect to such extension are
the same and (ii) in the case of an offer to the Lenders under any Revolving Facility, that all of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Facility are offered to be extended for the same amount of time and that the interest rate changes and
fees payable with respect to such extension are the same. Any such extension (an “Extension”) agreed to between the Company and any such Lender (an “Extending Lender”) will be established under this Agreement by
implementing an Other Term Loan for such Lender if such Lender is extending an existing Term Loan (such extended Term Loan, an “Extended Term Loan”) or an Other Revolving Credit Commitment for such Lender if such Lender is extending
an existing Revolving Credit Commitment (such extended Revolving Credit Commitment, an “Extended Revolving Credit Commitment”, and any Revolving Loan made pursuant to such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, an “Extended
Revolving Loan”). Each Pro Rata Extension Offer shall specify the date on which the Company proposes that the Extended Term Loan shall be made or the proposed Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective, which shall be a
date not earlier than five (5) Business Days after the date on which notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). 

(b) The Company and each Extending Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an amendment to this Agreement (an
“Extension Amendment”) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of such Extending Lender. Each Extension
Amendment shall specify the terms of the applicable Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that (i) except as to interest rates, fees and any other pricing terms, and amortization, final maturity date
and participation in prepayments and commitment reductions (which shall, subject to clauses (ii) and (iii) of this proviso, be determined by the Company and set forth in the Pro Rata Extension Offer), the Extended Term Loans shall have
(x) the same terms as the existing Class of Term Loans from which they 

  
 98 








 
are extended or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than
the latest Term Facility Maturity Date in effect on the date of incurrence, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term
Loans to which such offer relates, (iv) except as to interest rates, fees, any other pricing terms and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Company and set forth in the Pro Rata Extension Offer), any Extended Revolving Credit
Commitment shall have (x) the same terms as the existing Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from which they are extended or (y) have such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, in respect of any
other terms that would affect the rights or duties of any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, such terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, and (v) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro
rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Initial Term Loans in any mandatory prepayment hereunder. Upon the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment, this Agreement
shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 10.02. Any such
deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Company’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto. If provided in any Extension Amendment with respect to any
Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, and with the consent of each Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank, participations in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be reallocated to lenders holding such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in the
manner specified in such Extension Amendment, including upon effectiveness of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment or upon or prior to the maturity date for any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments. 

(c) Upon the effectiveness of any such Extension, the applicable Extending Lender’s Term Loan will be automatically designated an
Extended Term Loan and/or such Extending Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment will be automatically designated an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (i) if such Extending
Lender is extending a Term Loan, such Extending Lender will be deemed to have an Other Term Loan having the terms of such Extended Term Loan and (ii) if such Extending Lender is extending a Revolving Credit Commitment, such Extending Lender
will be deemed to have an Other Revolving Credit Commitment having the terms of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including without limitation this Section 2.18), (i) the aggregate amount of Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit
Commitments will not be included in the calculation of clause (a) of the definition of Incremental Amount, (ii) no Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment,
(iii) any Extending Lender may extend all or any portion of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to one or more Pro Rata Extension Offers (subject to applicable proration in the case of over participation) (including the
extension of any Extended Term Loan and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment), (iv) there shall be no condition to any Extension of any Loan or Commitment at any time or from time to time other than notice to the Administrative Agent of such
Extension and the terms of the Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment implemented thereby, (v) all Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations of the
relevant Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that rank equally and ratably in right of security with all other Obligations of the Class being extended (and all other Secured Obligations secured by Other First Liens),
(vi) no Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall be obligated to provide Swingline Loans or issue Letters of Credit under such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments unless it shall have consented thereto and (vii) there shall be no borrower
(other than the Borrowers) and 

  
 99 








 
no guarantors (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) in respect of any such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. 

(e) Each Extension shall be consummated pursuant to procedures set forth in the associated Pro Rata Extension Offer; provided, that the
Company shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent prior to making any Pro Rata Extension Offer to establish reasonable procedures with respect to mechanical provisions relating to such Extension, including, without limitation, timing, rounding
and other adjustments. 
 SECTION 2.19. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs; Allocation of Proceeds. 

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal,
interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment
(or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, Local Time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the
Applicable Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Applicable Agent to the applicable account specified in Schedule 2.19
or, in any such case, to such other account as the Applicable Agent shall from time to time specify in a notice delivered to the Company, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or a Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and
except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein.
The Applicable Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be due on a
day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under any
Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Loan or LC Disbursement shall be made in the currency of such Loan or LC Disbursement, and all other payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars, except
as otherwise expressly provided; provided that if, for any reason, a Borrower is prohibited by Requirements of Law from making any required payment hereunder in the currency of a Loan or LC Disbursement, such Borrower shall make such payment in U.S.
dollars in the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of the payment amount with respect to such currency. Any payment required to be made by an Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Agent shall, at or before such time,
have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Agent to make such payment. Any payment required to be made by a Borrower hereunder
shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Borrower shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement
system used by such Borrower to make such payment. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Applicable
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled
thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance
with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 

  
 100 








 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans, participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans, participations in
LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, as the case may be, and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the
Loans, participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and
accrued interest on their respective Loans, and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered,
such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to
and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any
assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from the
relevant Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due for the account of all or certain of the Lenders or Issuing Banks hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Borrower has made
such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment,
then each of the applicable Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Applicable Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at a rate determined by the Applicable Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation. 

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or
(e), 2.06(b), 2.19(d) or 11.03(c), then any Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by such Agent for the account of such Lender to
satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which such Agent shall have exclusive control as cash
collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined such Agent in its discretion. 

(f) (i) Any proceeds of any asset (including any Equity Interest) securing the Secured Obligations of the Company shall be applied, subject to
any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Agents and the Issuing Banks from the Company, second, to pay any fees or expense
reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Company, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Company’s Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Company’s Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and to
pay any amounts owing with respect to the Company’s Obligations under the Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements, ratably (with amounts applied to any such Term Loans 

  
 101 








 
applied to installments of the Term Loans ratably in accordance with the then outstanding amounts thereof), fifth, to pay an amount (without duplication of any other amounts paid to the
Administrative Agent under Section 2.17(f) for this purpose) to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate LC Exposure, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and sixth, to
the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agents or any Lender by the Company. 
 (ii) Any proceeds of any asset (including any
Equity Interest) securing the Secured Obligations of any Foreign Borrower shall be applied, subject to any applicable Intercreditor Agreement, ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due
to the Agents and the Issuing Banks from any Foreign Borrower, second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from any Foreign Borrower, third, to pay interest then due and payable on any Foreign
Borrower’s Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on any Foreign Borrower’s Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and to pay any amounts owing with respect to any Foreign Borrower’s Obligations under the Secured Cash
Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations, ratably (with amounts applied to any such Term Loans applied to installments of such Term Loans ratably in accordance with the then outstanding amounts
thereof), fifth, to pay an amount (without duplication of any other amounts paid to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.17(f) for this purpose) to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the
aggregate LC Exposure, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and sixth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agents or any Lender by the Company. 

(iii) Any payments made by the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting (A) a
specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrowers), (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11),
or (C) proceeds of any asset securing any Secured Obligation, or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, shall be applied, subject to any
applicable Intercreditor Agreement, ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Agents and the Issuing Banks from the Borrowers, second, to pay any fees or expense
reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and to payment of any amounts owing
with respect to Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations, ratably (with amounts applied to the Term Loans applied to installments of the Term Loans ratably in accordance with the then
outstanding amounts thereof), fifth, to pay an amount (without duplication of any other amounts paid to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.17(f) for this purpose) to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent
(105%) of the aggregate LC Exposure, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, and sixth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agents or any Lender by the Borrowers. 

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 2.17(f), amounts received from any Loan Party shall not be applied to any
Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations.

 (v) Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in the other Loan Documents, no payments received from, or proceeds of property of, any
Foreign Borrower or Foreign Subsidiary shall be applied to any Obligation of any other Borrower or any Domestic Subsidiary. The liability of each Foreign Borrower shall be several and not joint with the Obligations of any other Borrower. 

  
 102 








 SECTION 2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign
its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or
2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if
any Lender refuses to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document requiring the consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) pursuant
to Section 10.02, and the same has been approved by such Lenders, as applicable (or would have been approved by such Lenders with the disapproving Lender’s consent), then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice
to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under
the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of
its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees)
or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 (c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting
Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver or consent which pursuant to the terms of Section 10.02 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have
granted their consent, then the Company shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring
such Non-Consenting Lender to (and any such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the Company’s request) assign its Loans and its Commitments (or, at the Company’s option, the Loans and Commitments under the Facility that is the
subject of the proposed amendment, waiver or consent) hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to (i) the Administrative Agent (unless such assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) and (ii) if in
respect of any Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Loan, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank; provided, that: (i) all Obligations of the Company owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full in same
day funds to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to 

  
 103 








 
such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the replacement Lender or, at the option of the Company, the Company shall
pay any amount required by Section 2.12(d), if applicable, and (iii) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver or consent. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting
Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Company, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting
Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 10.04; provided, that if such Non-Consenting Lender does not comply with Section 10.04 within one Business Day after the Company’s request,
compliance with Section 10.04 (but only on the part of the Non-Consenting Lender) shall not be required to effect such assignment. 

SECTION 2.21. Designation of Subsidiary Borrowers. 

(a) The Company may at any time and from time to time designate any Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Borrower with the ability to request
credit under the Revolving Credit Commitment upon satisfaction of the following conditions: 
 (i) The Administrative Agent
shall have received a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company, and the Administrative Agent and all of the Revolving Lenders shall have consented to the applicable Foreign Subsidiary becoming a Foreign Borrower
hereunder. 
 (ii) The Administrative Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders that (A) no withholding Tax shall apply to any sum payable by or on account of any obligation of such Subsidiary to any Recipient under any Loan Document, (B) gross-up obligations contained in the Loan Documents (including
Section 2.17 of this Agreement) shall apply to any such Tax that may be imposed, then or in the future, on or with respect to such amounts to protect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from any economic effect of any such
withholding Tax obligations, and (C) the laws and regulations of the jurisdictions in which such Subsidiary is organized and is located permit extensions of credit and other financial accommodations from the United States of America into such
jurisdictions. 
 (iii) The Lenders shall have received all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory
authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the U.S.A. Patriot Act and (if applicable) the Money Laundering Regulations 2003 of the United Kingdom (as amended) in respect of
such Subsidiary. 
 (iv) The Collateral Agent shall have received a pledge of certain of the Equity Interests of such Foreign
Subsidiary pursuant to documents (including opinions of counsel) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (v)
The Administrative Agent shall have received organizational documents, authorizing resolutions, officers’ certificates, legal opinions and such other instruments, documents and agreements in respect of such Subsidiary as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request. 
 (b) Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.21,
such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Borrower with the ability to request credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments, and a party to this Agreement until the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative
Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such 

  
 104 








 
Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrower, and a party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, (x) no particular Subsidiary may be added and
terminated under this Section 2.21 more than twice during the term of this Agreement and (y) no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to
such Borrower, shall be outstanding hereunder, provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate the right of such Foreign Borrower, to make further Borrowings under this Agreement. As soon as practicable
upon receipt of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall furnish a copy thereof to each Lender. 
 (c) The Borrowers
acknowledge and agree that the addition of certain Foreign Subsidiaries as Foreign Borrowers may require Lenders to possess EU Lending Passports. In such case, if each Lender does not possess an EU Lending Passport and otherwise is unable to extend
credit to the proposed Foreign Borrower without regulatory issues, or without withholding Taxes that would not be subject to gross-up protection under the Loan Documents (in each case, as determined by each such Lender in its reasonable discretion),
then such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be added as a Foreign Borrower hereto. 
 SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding
any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a); 

(b) the Commitment and/or Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required
Lenders, Required Financial Covenant Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.02);
provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby; 

(c) if any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the
non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Percentages, but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC
Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments; 
 (ii) if the
reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, or shall cause the applicable Borrowers, within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent
(x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Company’s or the applicable Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause
(ii) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC 

  
 105 








 
Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized and such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender; 

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable
to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Percentages; and 

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant
to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to
the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be
payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and 
 (d) so long as
such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender(s) shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan thereunder, and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the
related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with
Section 2.22(c), and participating interests in any such newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with
Section 2.22(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein). 
 If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to
a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender(s) or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations
under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the applicable Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of
Credit, unless such Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Company or such Lender, satisfactory to such Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to
it in respect of such Lender hereunder. 
 In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the applicable Swingline Lender and the
Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such
Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Percentage and such Lender shall no longer constitute a Defaulting Lender. 

SECTION 2.23. Refinancing Amendments. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may by written notice to the Administrative Agent establish one or
more additional tranches of term loans under this Agreement (such loans, “Refinancing Term Loans”), all Net Proceeds of which are used to Refinance in whole or in part any Class of Term Loans pursuant to
Section 2.11(b)(2). Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Refinancing Effective Date”) on which the Company proposes that the Refinancing Term Loans shall be made, which shall be a date not earlier than five
(5) Business Days after 

  
 106 








 
the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); provided, that: 

(i) before and after giving effect to the borrowing of such Refinancing Term Loans on the Refinancing Effective Date each of
the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied; 
 (ii) the final maturity date of the Refinancing
Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Term Facility Maturity Date of the refinanced Term Loans; 
 (iii) the Weighted
Average Life to Maturity of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be no shorter than the then-remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the refinanced Term Loans; 

(iv) the aggregate principal amount of the Refinancing Term Loans shall not exceed the outstanding principal amount of the
refinanced Term Loans plus amounts used to pay fees, premiums, costs and expenses (including original issue discount) and accrued interest associated therewith; 

(v) all other terms applicable to such Refinancing Term Loans (other than provisions relating to original issue discount,
upfront fees, interest rates and any other pricing terms (which original issue discount, upfront fees, interest rates and other pricing terms shall not be subject to the provisions set forth in Section 2.09(c)(v)) and optional prepayment
or mandatory prepayment or redemption terms, which shall be as agreed between the Company and the Lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans) taken as a whole shall (as determined by the Company in good faith) be substantially similar to, or no
more restrictive to the Company and its Subsidiaries than, the terms, taken as a whole, applicable to the Term Loans being refinanced (except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date or
are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); 
 (vi) with respect to Refinancing Term Loans secured by
Liens on the Collateral that rank junior in right of security to the Initial Term Loans, such Liens will be subject to a Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement; 

(vii) there shall be no borrower (other than the Borrowers) and no guarantors (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) in respect
of such Refinancing Term Loans; 
 (viii) Refinancing Term Loans shall not be secured by any asset of the Company and its
Subsidiaries other than the Collateral; and 
 (ix) Refinancing Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less
than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments (other than as provided otherwise in the case of such prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(2)) hereunder, as specified in the applicable
Refinancing Amendment. 
 (b) The Company may approach any Lender or any other person that would be a permitted assignee pursuant to
Section 10.04 to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans; provided, that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the Refinancing Term Loans may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to
provide a Refinancing Term Loan. Any Refinancing Term Loans made on any Refinancing Effective Date shall be designated an additional Class of Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided, further, that any Refinancing Term
Loans may, to the extent 

  
 107 








 
provided in the applicable Refinancing Amendment governing such Refinancing Term Loans, be designated as an increase in any previously established Class of Term Loans made to the Company. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company may by written notice to the Administrative Agent establish one or
more additional Facilities (“Replacement Revolving Facilities”) providing for revolving commitments (“Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments” and the revolving loans thereunder, “Replacement Revolving
Loans”), which replace in whole or in part any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments under this Agreement. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, a “Replacement Revolving Facility Effective Date”) on which the
Company proposes that the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall become effective, which shall be a date not less than five (5) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter
period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided, that: (i) before and after giving effect to the establishment of such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments on the Replacement Revolving Facility
Effective Date, each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied; (ii) after giving effect to the establishment of any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments and any concurrent reduction in the aggregate amount
of any other Revolving Credit Commitments, the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding immediately prior to the applicable Replacement Revolving Facility
Effective Date plus amounts used to pay fees, premiums, costs and expenses (including original issue discount) and accrued interest associated therewith; (iii) no Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall have a final maturity date (or
require commitment reductions or amortizations) prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Commitments being replaced; (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Revolving Facility (other than provisions
relating to (x) fees, interest rates and other pricing terms and prepayment and commitment reduction and optional redemption terms which shall be as agreed between the Company and the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Credit
Commitments and (y) the amount of any letter of credit sublimit and swingline commitment under such Replacement Revolving Facility, which shall be as agreed between the Company, the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Credit
Commitments, the Administrative Agent and the replacement issuing bank and replacement swingline lender, if any, under such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments) taken as a whole shall (as determined by the Company in good faith) be
substantially similar to, or no more restrictive to the Company and its Subsidiaries than, those, taken as a whole, applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments so replaced (except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any
period after the latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date in effect at the time of incurrence or are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); (v) there shall be no borrower (other than the Borrowers) and no guarantors (other
than the Subsidiary Guarantors) in respect of such Replacement Revolving Facility; and (vi) Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments and extensions of credit thereunder shall not be secured by any asset of the Company and its Subsidiaries other
than the Collateral, and (vii) if such Replacement Revolving Facility is secured by Liens on the Collateral that rank junior in right of security to the Initial Revolving Loans, such Liens will be subject to a Permitted Junior Intercreditor
Agreement. In addition, the Company may establish Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments to refinance and/or replace all or any portion of a Term Loan hereunder (regardless of whether such Term Loan is repaid with the proceeds of Replacement
Revolving Loans or otherwise), so long as the aggregate amount of such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments does not exceed the aggregate amount of Term Loans repaid at the time of establishment thereof plus amounts used to pay fees, premiums,
costs and expenses (including original issue discount) and accrued interest associated therewith (it being understood that such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment may be provided by the Lenders holding the Term Loans being repaid and/or by any
other person that would be a permitted assignee hereunder) so long as (i) before and after giving effect to the establishment such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments on the Replacement Revolving Facility Effective Date each of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied to the extent required by the relevant agreement 

  
 108 








 
governing such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) the remaining life to termination of such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average
Life to Maturity then applicable to the refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the final termination date of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments shall be no earlier than the Term Facility Maturity Date of the refinanced Term Loans,
(iv) with respect to Replacement Revolving Loans secured by Liens on Collateral that rank junior in right of security to the Initial Revolving Loans, such Liens will be subject to a Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement, (v) there shall
be no borrower (other than the Borrowers) and no guarantors (other than the Subsidiary Guarantors) in respect of such Replacement Revolving Facility; and (vi) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Revolving Facility (other than
provisions relating to (x) fees, interest rates and other pricing terms and prepayment and commitment reduction and optional redemption terms which shall be as agreed between the Company and the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving
Credit Commitments and (y) the amount of any letter of credit sublimit and swingline commitment under such Replacement Revolving Facility, which shall be as agreed between the Company, the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Credit
Commitments, the Administrative Agent and the replacement issuing bank and replacement swingline lender, if any, under such Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments) taken as a whole shall (as determined by the Company in good faith) be
substantially similar to, or no more restrictive to the Company and its Subsidiaries than, those, taken as a whole, applicable to the Term Loans being refinanced (except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period after
the Latest Maturity Date or are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Solely to the extent that an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender is not a replacement issuing bank or replacement swingline lender, as the case may be, under
a Replacement Revolving Facility, it is understood and agreed that such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender shall not be required to issue any letters of credit or swingline loan under such Replacement Revolving Facility and, to the extent it is
necessary for such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender to withdraw as an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, at the time of the establishment of such Replacement Revolving Facility, such withdrawal shall be on terms and conditions
reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in its sole discretion. The Company agrees to reimburse each Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in full upon demand, for any reasonable and
documented out-of-pocket cost or expense attributable to such withdrawal. 
 (d) The Company may approach any Lender or any other person
that would be a permitted assignee of a Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 10.04 to provide all or a portion of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that any Lender offered or approached to provide
all or a portion of the Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment. Any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment made on any Replacement Revolving
Facility Effective Date shall be designated an additional Class of Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided, that any Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments may, to the extent provided in the applicable
Refinancing Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Class of Revolving Credit Commitments. 
 (e) The Company
and each Lender providing the applicable Refinancing Term Loans and/or Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments (as applicable) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an amendment to this Agreement (a “Refinancing
Amendment”) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence such Refinancing Term Loans and/or Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments (as applicable). For purposes of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, (A) if a Lender is providing a Refinancing Term Loan, such Lender will be deemed to have an Other Term Loan having the terms of such Refinancing Term Loan and (B) if a Lender is providing a Replacement Revolving
Credit Commitment, such Lender will be deemed to have an Other Revolving Credit Commitment having the terms of such Replacement Revolving Credit 

  
 109 








 
Commitment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including without limitation this Section 2.23), (i) the aggregate
amount of Refinancing Term Loans and Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments will not be included in the calculation of clause (a) of the definition of Incremental Amount, (ii) no Refinancing Term Loan or Replacement Revolving Credit
Commitment is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, (iii) there shall be no condition to any incurrence of any Refinancing Term Loan or Replacement Revolving Credit Commitment at any time or from time to time other than
those set forth in clauses (a) or (c) above, as applicable, and (iv) all Refinancing Term Loans, Replacement Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents that rank equally and ratably in right of security with the Initial Term Loans and other Secured Obligations (other than Other Incremental Term Loans and Refinancing Term Loans that rank junior in right of security with the Initial
Term Loans, and except to the extent any such Refinancing Term Loans are secured by the Collateral on a junior lien basis in accordance with the provisions above). 

SECTION 2.24. Loan Repurchases. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth or referred to below, the Company may from time to time, at its discretion, conduct modified
Dutch auctions in order to purchase its Term Loans of one or more Classes (as determined by the Company) (each, a “Purchase Offer”), each such Purchase Offer to be managed exclusively by the Administrative Agent (or such other
financial institution chosen by the Company and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) (in such capacity, the “Auction Manager”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: 

(i) each Purchase Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this
Section 2.24 and the Auction Procedures; 
 (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of the delivery of each notice of an auction and at the time of (and immediately after giving effect to) the purchase of any Term Loans in connection with any Purchase Offer; 

(iii) the principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of each and all Classes of Term Loans that the Company
offers to purchase in any such Purchase Offer shall be no less than U.S. $25,000,000 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent) (across all such Classes); 

(iv) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans of the applicable Class or
Classes so purchased by the Company shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Company on the settlement date of the relevant purchase (and may not be resold) (without any increase to Adjusted EBITDA as a result of any gains associated with
cancellation of debt), and in no event shall the Company be entitled to any vote hereunder in connection with such Term Loans; 

(v) no more than one Purchase Offer with respect to any Class may be ongoing at any one time; 

(vi) the Company represents and warrants that no Loan Party shall have any material non-public information with respect to the
Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries, or with respect to the Loans or the securities of any such person, that (A) has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (other than because such Lender does not
wish to receive such material non-public information) prior to such time and (B) could reasonably 

  
 110 








 
be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material to, a Lender’s decision to participate in the Purchase Offer; 

(vii) at the time of each purchase of Term Loans through a Purchase Offer, the Company shall have delivered to the Auction
Manager an officer’s certificate of a Financial Officer certifying as to compliance with the preceding clause (vi); 

(viii) any Purchase Offer with respect to any Class shall be offered to all Term Loan Lenders holding Term Loans of such Class
on a pro rata basis; and 
 (ix) no purchase of any Term Loans shall be made from the proceeds of any Revolving
Loan or Swingline Loan. 
 (b) The Company must terminate any Purchase Offer if it fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth
above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Purchase Offer. If the Company commences any Purchase Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are
required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Purchase Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Company reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be
satisfied at the time of the consummation of such Purchase Offer shall be satisfied, then the Company shall have no liability to any Term Loan Lender for any termination of such Purchase Offer as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the
conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of consummation of such Purchase Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Default or Event of Default hereunder. With respect to
all purchases of Term Loans of any Class or Classes made by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.24, (x) the Company shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent
otherwise set forth in the relevant offering documents), if any, on the purchased Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes up to the settlement date of such purchase and (y) such purchases (and the payments made by the Company and the
cancellation of the purchased Loans, in each case in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.11 hereof. 

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Purchase Offers and the other transactions effected pursuant to and in
accordance with the terms of this Section 2.24; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such Purchase Offer. For the avoidance of doubt, it
is understood and agreed that the provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.19 and 10.04 will not apply to the purchases of Term Loans pursuant to Purchase Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 2.24. The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article VIII and Section 10.03 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the
“Agents” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in
connection with each Purchase Offer.

other person (except Permitted Liens). 
 (b) When the Security Agreement or a short form thereof is filed and recorded in the United States
Patent and Trademark Office and/or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, and, with respect to Collateral in which a security interest cannot be perfected by such filings, upon the proper filing of the financing statements referred to in
clause (a) above, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties thereunder in the United States registered
trademarks and patents, trademark and patent applications and registered copyrights, in each case prior and superior in right to the Lien of any other person, except for Permitted Liens (it being understood that subsequent recordings in the United
States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office may be necessary to perfect a Lien on registered trademarks and issued patents, trademark and patent applications and registered copyrights acquired by the Loan Parties after
the Effective Date). 
 (c) The Mortgages, if any, executed and delivered on the Effective Date are, and the Mortgages executed and
delivered after the Effective Date pursuant to this Agreement shall be, effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) or, if so contemplated by the respective Mortgage, the Collateral Agent and the

real estate filing or recording offices, and all relevant mortgage Taxes and recording charges are duly paid, the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall have valid Liens with record notice to third parties on, and security
interests in, all rights, titles and interests of the Loan Parties in such Mortgaged Property and, to the extent applicable, subject to Section 9-315 of the Uniform Commercial Code, the proceeds thereof, in each case prior and superior in right
to the Lien of any other person, except for Permitted Liens. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything herein (including this
Section 3.16) or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, no Loan Party makes any representation or warranty as to the effects of perfection or non-perfection, the priority or the enforceability of any pledge of or security interest
in any Equity Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary other than pursuant to the Luxembourg Pledge Agreement or 

  
 115 








 
any other Security Document governed by foreign law, or as to the rights and remedies of the Agents of any Lender with respect thereto, under foreign law. 

SECTION 3.17. Solvency. Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions on the Effective Date and the making of each Loan on the
Effective Date and the application of the proceeds of such Loans, (i) the fair value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, exceeds, on a consolidated basis, their debts and liabilities, subordinated,
contingent or otherwise; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability, on a consolidated basis,
of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are able to pay their debts and
liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) the aggregate assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, at a fair valuation is sufficient to
enable the Company and its Subsidiaries to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured. For purposes of the foregoing, the amount of any contingent liability at
any time shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual and matured liability.

SECTION 5.04. Payment of Obligations. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay its obligations, including Tax

faith by appropriate proceedings, (b) the Company or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP and (c) the failure to make payment pending such contest would not reasonably be

(a) The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (a) keep and maintain all property material to the conduct of its
business in good working order and condition (ordinary wear and tear excepted), and with respect to Intellectual Property which is material to the Business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, maintain, renew, prosecute, enforce and defend such

the Collateral Agent to be listed as mortgagee/loss payee on property and casualty policies with respect to real and tangible personal property and assets constituting Collateral located in the United States of America and as an additional insured
on all general liability policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its Subsidiaries may (i) maintain all such insurance with any combination of primary and excess insurance, (ii) maintain any or all such insurance pursuant
to master or so-called “blanket policies” insuring any or all Collateral and/or Real Property which does not constitute Collateral (and in such event the co-payee endorsement shall be limited or otherwise modified accordingly), and/or

(b) Except as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion, within sixty (60) days after the later of the Effective Date
and, with respect to any Effective Date Mortgaged Property, the date on which such Mortgaged Property is required to be encumbered by a Mortgage hereunder ((or such later (A) not to exceed an additional fifteen (15) days if reasonably
required by Company or (B) as such period may be further extended in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent), cause all such property and casualty insurance policies with respect to the Mortgaged Property located in the United States of

the cancellation or nonrenewal of any such policy of insurance covered by this clause (b), a copy of a renewal or replacement policy (or other evidence of renewal of a policy previously delivered to the Collateral Agent), or insurance certificate

similarly situated companies in connection with credit facilities of this nature.

if any portion of any Mortgaged Property is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a special flood hazard area (each a “Special Flood Hazard Area”) with
respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Insurance Laws (as now or hereafter in effect or successor act thereto), (i) maintain, or cause to be maintained, with a financially sound and reputable insurer, flood
insurance in an amount and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Insurance Laws; provided that such insurer may not be an Insurance Subsidiary and (ii) deliver to the

the covenants set forth in this Section 5.05, it is understood and agreed that: (i) the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and their respective agents or employees shall not be liable for any
loss or damage insured by the insurance policies required to be maintained under this Section 5.05, it being understood that (A) the Loan Parties shall look solely to their insurance companies or any other parties other than the
aforesaid parties for the recovery of such loss or damage and (B) such insurance companies shall have no rights of subrogation against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank or their agents or employees.
If, however, the insurance policies, as a matter of the internal policy of such insurer, do not provide waiver of subrogation rights against such parties, as required above, then the Company, on behalf of itself and behalf of each of its
Subsidiaries, hereby agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to waive, and further agrees to cause each of their Subsidiaries to waive, its right of recovery, if any, against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing
Bank and their agents and employees; (ii) the designation of any form, type or amount of insurance coverage by the Collateral Agent (including acting in the capacity as the Collateral Agent) under this Section 5.05 shall in no event
be deemed a representation, warranty or advice by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders that such insurance is adequate for the purposes of the business of the Company and the Subsidiaries or the protection of their properties; and (iii) the
amount and type of insurance that the Company and its Subsidiaries has in effect as of the Effective Date and the certificates listing the Collateral Agent as mortgagee/loss payee or additional insured, as the case may be, satisfy for all purposes
the requirements of this Section 5.05. 
 SECTION 5.06. Books and Records; Inspection Rights. The Company will, and will
cause each of its Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries in all material respects are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities. The Company will, and
will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, permit any representatives designated by the Administrative Agent, upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to examine and make reasonable extracts from its books and records, and to
discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and independent accountants, all at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as reasonably requested; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) except during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such rights more often than one (1) time during any calendar year and (ii) the Company shall only be required to reimburse the
Administrative Agent for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with visits and inspections 

  
 123 








 
made during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided further that representatives of the Company may be present during any such visits, discussions and inspections. 

SECTION 5.07. Compliance with Laws. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all laws, rules,
regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company will
maintain in effect and enforce policies and procedures designed to facilitate compliance in all material respects by the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and
applicable Sanctions. 
 SECTION 5.08. Use of Proceeds and Letters of Credit. Each Borrower will use (and will cause their
Subsidiaries to use) the proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit, as applicable, for working capital and general corporate purposes, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and for the repayment of certain Indebtedness and the
repurchase of certain of the Borrowers’ Equity Interests, Restricted Payments permitted hereunder, Permitted Investments and other transactions permitted pursuant to Section 6.04, and for Permitted Acquisitions, including the
Acquisition. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of any of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulations T, U and X. 

SECTION 5.09. Maintenance of Ratings. Use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and to maintain (a) public ratings from
Moody’s and S&P for the Initial Term Loans and the Initial Revolving Loans and (b) public corporate credit ratings and corporate family ratings from Moody’s and S&P in respect of the Company; provided, however,
in each case, that the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be required to obtain or maintain any specific rating. For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to obtain or maintain a rating shall not constitute a breach of the requirements of this
Section 5.09 so long as commercially reasonably efforts have been utilized to obtain or maintain such rating. 
 SECTION 5.10.
Additional Subsidiary Guarantors; Additional Security; Further Assurances, etc..

(90) days after such acquisition (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Collateral Agent (with such
changes as are reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent to account for local law matters which do not materially decrease any rights nor increase any obligations of the Borrowers) or in such other form as is reasonably satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent and the Company (each, an “Additional Mortgage”), which security interest and mortgage shall constitute valid and enforceable Liens subject to no other Liens except Permitted Liens and (ii) record or file, and
cause each such Subsidiary to record or file, the Additional Mortgage or instruments related thereto in such manner and in such places as is required by law to establish, perfect, preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent (for

Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving Indebtedness) on or prior to the Effective Date, on the Effective Date and, in the case of such Indebtedness incurred (in respect of term Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving

other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollars (or in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced), and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the

Section 6.01 and will be entitled to only include the amount and type of such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in one of the above clauses (or any portion thereof) and such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) shall
be treated as having been incurred or existing pursuant to only such clause or clauses (or any portion thereof); provided, that all Indebtedness outstanding under this Agreement shall at all times be deemed to have been incurred pursuant to
clause (a) of this Section 6.01 and (C) at the option of the Company by written notice to the Administrative Agent, any Indebtedness and/or Lien incurred to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition shall be deemed to have been

the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be tested (x) in connection with such incurrence, as of the date the definitive acquisition agreement relating to such Limited Condition Acquisition was entered into, giving pro forma effect to such Limited
Condition Acquisition, to any such Indebtedness or Lien, and to all transactions in connection therewith and (y) in connection with any other incurrence after the date the definitive acquisition agreement relating to such Limited Condition
Acquisition was entered into and prior to the earlier of the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or the termination of such definitive agreement prior to the incurrence (but

with respect to any Indebtedness that was permitted to be incurred hereunder on the date of such incurrence, any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness shall also be permitted hereunder after the date of such incurrence. 

This Agreement will not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior in right of payment to secured Indebtedness merely
because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior in right of payment to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior priority with respect to the same collateral. 

SECTION 6.02. Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or permit to exist any Lien on

(B) that enables or permits (with or without the giving of notice, the lapse of time or both) the holder or holders of any Material Indebtedness or any trustee or agent on its or their behalf to cause any Material Indebtedness to become due, or
to require the prepayment, repurchase,

proceeds resulting from such sale or transfer; provided further that any breach of the covenants set forth in Section 6.09 giving rise to an event described in clause (B) above shall not, by itself, constitute an Event

declaration has not been rescinded on or before the date on which the Term Loan Lenders (other than the Lenders under the Initial Term A Facility) declare an Event of Default in connection therewith; or (ii) the Company or any of the

be covered thereby, subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.02 or any of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary shall cease to be pledged pursuant to the Security Documents free of Liens other than Liens subject to any Intercreditor
Agreement or any nonconsensual Liens arising solely by operation of Law; 
 then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to a Loan Party,
any Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor or Significant Subsidiary described in clause (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required
Lenders (and (x) in the case of a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to clause (i) below, the Required Revolving Lenders and (y) in the case of a failure to observe or perform covenants set forth in
Section 6.09, unless the Required Financial Covenant Lenders have accelerated any Initial Term A Loans and Revolving Loans then outstanding as a result of such breach and such declaration has not been rescinded on or before the date on
which the Term Loan Lenders (other than the Lenders under the Initial Term A Facility) declare an Event of Default in connection therewith, the Required Financial Covenant Lenders), shall, by notice to the Company, take any of the following actions,
at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any such principal

Section 2.05(j), without 

  
 145 








 
presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 The Agents

 Each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender and the Swingline Lender (if applicable) and on behalf of itself and its
Affiliates as potential counterparties to Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and agreements governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations) and the Issuing Banks (in such capacities and on behalf of itself and its
Affiliates as potential counterparties to Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and agreements governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations) hereby irrevocably appoints each Applicable Agent, including as the Collateral
Agent for such Lender and the other Secured Parties under the Security Documents, as its agent and authorizes such Applicable Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Applicable Agent by the terms
hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender (in its
capacities as a Lender and the Swingline Lender (if applicable) and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential counterparties to Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements or agreements governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured
Obligations) and each Issuing Bank (in such capacities and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential counterparties to Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements and agreements governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured
Obligations) hereby appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured
Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Collateral Agent (and any sub-agents appointed by the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien
on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights or remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent) shall be entitled to the benefits of this Article VIII as though the
Collateral Agent (and any such sub-agents) were an “Agent” under the Loan Documents, as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

Each bank serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise
the same as though it were not such Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent
hereunder. 
 The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of
the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be
deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and no 

  
 146 








 
Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (iv) the validity,
enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items
expressly required to be delivered to such Agent or (vi) the perfection or priority of any Lien securing the Secured Obligations or the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral. 

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent,
statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally, by telephone or by e-mail and believed by it to be
made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 Each Agent may perform any
and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof); provided, that no such
sub-agent shall be authorized to take any action with respect to any Collateral unless and except to the extent expressly authorized in writing by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any
and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent,
and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent. 

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, any Agent may resign at any time by notifying
the Lenders, the Issuing Banks (in the case of the Administrative Agent) and the Company; provided, that the resignation of one Global Agent shall be deemed to be the resignation of all Global Agents. Upon any such resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives
notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of such Secured Parties, the retiring Collateral
Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed), and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agents hereunder until such time, if any, as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. The appointment of successor Global Agents shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Upon the acceptance of its
appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder. The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between such Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of
this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting
as an Agent. 

  
 147 








 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any
other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any
Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 Each Lender authorizes the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents and to take
all action contemplated thereby. Each Lender agrees that no one (other than the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by the Security Documents, it being
understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the terms of the Security Documents. In the event that any collateral is
hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the
Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. 

None of the Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agent or Senior Managing Agent shall have
any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship
with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their respective capacities as Syndication Agent as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the preceding paragraph. 

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth
herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date
such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 The Lenders and the other Secured Parties
hereby irrevocably authorize and instruct the Collateral Agent to, without any further consent of any Lender or any other Secured Party, enter into (or acknowledge and consent to) or amend, renew, extend, supplement, restate, replace, waive or
otherwise modify any Permitted Junior Intercreditor Agreement, any Permitted First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any other intercreditor or subordination agreement (in form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and deemed appropriate by it) with
the collateral agent or other representative of holders of Indebtedness secured (and permitted to be secured) by a Lien on assets constituting a portion of the Collateral under (1) Section 6.02(i) (and in accordance with the
relevant requirements thereof) and (2) any other provision of Section 6.02 (it being acknowledged and agreed that the Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to execute any Intercreditor Agreement pursuant to this clause (2),
and may elect to do so, or not do so, in its sole and absolute discretion) (any of the foregoing, an “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Lenders and the other Secured Parties irrevocably agree that (x) the Collateral Agent may rely
exclusively on a certificate of a Financial Officer of the Company as to whether any such other Liens are permitted hereunder and as to the respective assets constituting Collateral that secure (and are permitted to secure) such Indebtedness
hereunder and (y) any Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the Collateral Agent shall be binding on the Secured Parties, and each Lender and the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will take no actions contrary to the provisions of,
if entered into and if applicable, any Intercreditor Agreement. Furthermore, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and 

  
 148 








 
the Collateral Agent to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (i) to the holder of any Lien on such
property that is permitted by clauses (d) or (e) of Section 6.02 in each case to the extent the contract or agreement pursuant to which such Lien is granted prohibits any other Liens on such property or (ii) that is or
becomes Excluded Property; and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall do so upon request of the Company; provided, that prior to any such request, the Company shall have in each case delivered to the Administrative Agent a
certificate of a Financial Officer of the Company certifying (x) that such Lien is permitted under this Agreement, (y) in the case of a request pursuant to clause (i) of this sentence, that the contract or agreement pursuant to which
such Lien is granted prohibits any other Lien on such property and (z) in the case of a request pursuant to clause (ii) of this sentence, that (A) such property is or has become Excluded Property and (B) if such property has
become Excluded Property as a result of a contractual restriction, such restriction does not violate Section 6.08. 
 In case of
the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, (i) the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (A) to file and prove a
claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of any or all of the Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of
the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and any sub-agents allowed in such judicial proceeding, and (B) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same, and (ii) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent
and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of
the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or
adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in
respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding. 
 The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent and the
Revolving Lenders agree to indemnify each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, in each case in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by a Borrower and without limiting the obligation of a Borrower to do so), in the amount of its pro
rata share (based on its aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure and, in the case of the indemnification of each Agent, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments hereunder; provided, that the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans
owing to the Swingline Lender and of LC Disbursements owing to any Issuing Bank shall be considered to be owed to the Revolving Facility Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Exposure) (determined at the time such
indemnity is sought or, if the respective Obligations have been repaid in full, as determined immediately prior to such repayment in full), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender in any way relating to
or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent,
Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be  

  
 149 








 
liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and
non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The failure of any Lender to reimburse any Agent, Issuing
Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to such Agent, Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any
other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse such Agent, Issuing
Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 

For the purposes of taking and ensuring the continuing validity of security (the “Parallel Debt Security”) under any pledge
agreement by the Company of its Equity Interests in any Foreign Borrower to the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the Secured Parties, notwithstanding any contrary provision in any Loan Document: 

(a) the Company undertakes (such undertaking, the “Parallel Debt”) to pay to the Collateral Agent amounts equal to all
present and future amounts (the “Original Obligations”) owing by it to a Secured Party under any Loan Document; 
 (b) the
Collateral Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the Parallel Debt; 
 (c) the Parallel Debt shall not limit or
affect the existence of the Original Obligations for which the Secured Parties shall have an independent right to demand payment; 
 (d)
notwithstanding clause (b) and (c) above, payment by the Company of its Parallel Debt shall to the same extent decrease and be a good discharge of the corresponding Original Obligations owing to the relevant Secured Parties and payment by the
Borrowers of its Original Obligations to the relevant Secured Parties shall to the same extent decrease and be a good discharge of the Parallel Debt owing by it to the Collateral Agent unless any Loan Document expressly provides that payment needs
to be made to the Collateral Agent; 
 (e) the Indebtedness is owed to the Collateral Agent in its own name and not as agent or
representative of any other person nor as trustee and the Parallel Debt Security shall secure the Parallel Debts so owing; 
 (f) without
limiting or affecting the Collateral Agent’s right to protect, preserve or enforce its rights, the Collateral Agent undertakes to each Secured Party not to exercise its right in respect of the Parallel Debts without the consent of the relevant
Secured Party; and 
 (g) the Collateral Agent undertakes to distribute to the Secured Parties an amount equal to any amounts collected or
received by the Collateral Agent which it has applied in reduction of the Parallel Debt in accordance with the terms of the respective Loan Document as if the Original Obligations had not been discharged. 

To the extent required by any applicable law (as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent may withhold
from any payment to any Lender under any Loan Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the 

  
 150 








 
provisions of Section 2.17, each Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against any and all Taxes and any and
all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a
result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed,
or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), whether or not such Tax was 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this paragraph. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the resignation
and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” for purposes
of this paragraph shall include any Swingline Lender and any Issuing Bank. 
 ARTICLE IX 

Guarantee 
 In order to
induce the Lenders to extend credit to the other Borrowers hereunder, the Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of the Secured Obligations of such
other Borrowers. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of such Secured Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee
hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any such Secured Obligation. 
 The Company waives presentment to, demand of
payment from and protest to any Borrower of any of the Secured Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the
failure of any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise; (b) any extension or renewal of any
of the Secured Obligations; (c) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or release from, any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, or any other Loan Document or agreement; (d) any default, failure or delay, willful or
otherwise, in the performance of any of the Secured Obligations; or (e) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of a
guarantor as a matter of law or equity or which would impair or eliminate any right of the Company to subrogation. 
 The Company further
agrees that its agreement hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Secured Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof)
and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender in favor of any Borrower or
any other Person. 
 The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination
for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, 

  
 151 








 
recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Secured Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Secured
Obligations or otherwise. 
 The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as
the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise. 

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender may have at law or in equity
against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any other Borrower to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby
promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the applicable Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender in cash an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Secured
Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Secured Obligation shall be due in a currency other than U.S. Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New
York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Secured Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the
reasonable judgment of any Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender, disadvantageous to such Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender in any material respect, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, the Company shall make payment of such Secured Obligation in
U.S. Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and, as a separate and independent obligation, shall indemnify each Agent, Issuing Bank and Lender against any losses or reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 
 Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided
above, all rights of the Company against any Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of
all the Secured Obligations owed by such Borrower to the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders. 
 Nothing shall discharge or satisfy
the liability of the Company hereunder except the full performance and payment of the Secured Obligations.

 SECTION 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise
have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default,
regardless of whether any Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Neither
this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) as provided in Section 2.09, 2.18 or 2.23, (y) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant
to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders (except that any waiver, amendment or modification of Section 6.09 or of any defined term (or component defined term) but only to the extent
as used therein (or any Default or Event of Default or exercise of remedies by the Required Financial Covenant Lenders in respect or as a result thereof) or of the definition of Required Financial Covenant Lenders shall require the Required
Financial Covenant Lenders voting as a single Class, rather than the Required Lenders) or (z) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party
or Foreign Subsidiary Guarantor that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall: 

(i) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, 

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees
payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, 
 (iii) postpone the date of any scheduled
payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment,
without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, 
 (iv) change Section 2.19(b),
(c) or (f) or any other provision providing for the pro rata nature of disbursements by or payments to Lenders, in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of
each Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood that transactions contemplated pursuant to Sections 2.09, 2.18 or 2.23 shall not be deemed to alter such pro rata sharing of payments), 

(v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolving
Lenders,” “Required Financial Covenant Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any
consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (it being understood that, 

  
 154 








 
with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis
as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Effective Date), 
 (vi) except as provided in Article VIII or
Section 10.18, release the Company or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from, or limit or condition, its or their obligations under Article IX or the Guaranty Agreement or substantially all of the Collateral
without the written consent of each Lender, 
 (vii) change the currency in which any Loan is denominated, or 

(viii) effect any waiver, amendment or modification that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments or
collateral of Lenders participating in any Facility differently from those of Lenders participating in another Facility, without the consent of Lenders under such Facility having Loans and unused Commitments representing more than 50% of the sum of
all Loans outstanding under such Facility and unused Commitments under such Facility at such time participating in the adversely affected Facility (it being agreed that the Required Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment or
Commitment reduction required by Section 2.11 so long as the application of any prepayment or Commitment reduction still required to be made is not changed); 

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Swingline Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to this Agreement solely for
the purpose of effecting an increase in the total Commitments pursuant to Section 2.09 may be entered into by the Company and any other relevant Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any other Applicable Agent, any Lender that has
agreed to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment or extend Incremental Term Loans and any Person that has agreed to become a Lender hereunder and to have a Revolving Credit Commitment or extend Incremental Term Loans hereunder. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have the right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent hereunder (and any amendment, wavier or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be affected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that
(x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be amended to make any of the changes set forth in Sections 10.02(b)(i), (ii) and (iii) without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or
modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(c) Without the consent of any Lender or Issuing Bank, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may (in their
respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection,
protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to include holders of Other First Liens or (to the extent necessary or advisable
under applicable local law) Junior Liens in the benefit of the Security Documents in connection with the incurrence of any Other First Lien Debt or Indebtedness permitted to be secured by Junior Liens and to give effect to any Intercreditor
Agreement associated therewith, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect, any security interest for the benefit of the Secured 

  
 155 








 
Parties in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or this Agreement or in each case to otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under any
Loan Document. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the
Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the applicable Borrower (i) to permit additional extensions of credit to be outstanding hereunder from time to time and the accrued interest and fees and other obligations in respect thereof to share
ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees and other obligations in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the holders of such
extensions of credit in any determination of the requisite lenders required hereunder, including Required Lenders and the Required Revolving Lenders, and for purposes of the relevant provisions of Section 2.19. 

(e) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Section 10.02, (i) if the Administrative Agent and the
Company shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, mistake, error, defect or inconsistency, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend such provision and
(ii) the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend any provision of any Loan Document to better implement the intentions of this Agreement, and in each case, such amendments shall become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof. In addition, technical and conforming modifications
to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent (but without the consent of any Lender) to the extent necessary (A) to integrate any Other Term Loan Commitments, Other Revolving Credit Commitments,
Other Term Loans and Other Revolving Loans as may be necessary to establish such Other Term Loan Commitments, Other Revolving Credit Commitment, Other Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans as a separate Class or tranche from the existing Term Facility
Commitments, Revolving Credit Commitments, Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, and, in the case of Extended Term Loans, to reduce the amortization schedule of the related existing Class of Term Loans proportionately or (B) to
integrate any Other First Lien Debt. 
 (f) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all
action as may be necessary to ensure that all Term Loans established pursuant to Section 2.09 after the Effective Date that will be included in an existing Class of Term Loans outstanding on such date (an “Applicable
Date”), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans of such Class (the “Existing Class Loans”), on a pro rata basis, and/or to ensure that, immediately after giving effect to
such new Term Loans (the “New Class Loans” and, together with the Existing Class Loans, the “Class Loans”), each Lender holding Class Loans will be deemed to hold its Pro Rata Share of each Class Loan on the
Applicable Date (but without changing the amount of any such Lender’s Term Loans), and each such Lender shall be deemed to have effectuated such assignments as shall be required to ensure the foregoing. The “Pro Rata Share” of
any Lender on the Applicable Date is the ratio of (1) the sum of such Lender’s Existing Class Loans immediately prior to the Applicable Date plus the amount of New Class Loans made by such Lender on the Applicable Date over (2) the
aggregate principal amount of all Class Loans on the Applicable Date. 
 SECTION 10.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation and 

  
 156 








 
administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby shall be consummated); provided, that under this clause (i), the Company shall not be required to pay reasonable costs, fees and expenses for more than one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and one local counsel for the
Administrative Agent in each jurisdiction where local counsel is required by the Administrative Agent unless one or more Lenders determines that the use of one primary counsel would result in an actual conflict of interest, in which case the
Company shall also be required to pay reasonable costs, fees and expenses for one additional counsel for the Lenders, (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Agent,
any Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with any Loan Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder,
including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided, however, that in no event under this clause (iii) shall the Company be
required to reimburse the Lenders for more than one primary counsel to the Administrative Agent and one local counsel per jurisdiction, and one counsel for all of the other Lenders, or any fees or charges of any financial advisor or other
restructuring professional in excess of reasonable fees and charges charged or incurred by such financial advisor or other restructuring professional. 

(b) The Company shall indemnify each Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each
such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any
counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the
performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds
therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any
actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability arising out of the operations or properties of the Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto;
provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (b) an intentional breach by such Indemnitee of its material duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, or (c) any dispute among
Indemnitees that did not involve actions or omissions of the Borrowers or their respective Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent or controlling person of the Borrowers or their respective Subsidiaries (other than claims brought by an
Indemnitee against the Lead Arrangers or the Administrative Agent in their capacities as such). This Section 10.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax
claim. 
 (c) To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any
Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or 

  
 157 








 
indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was
incurred by or asserted against such Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Swingline Lender in its capacity as such; and provided further that payment of any amount by any Lender pursuant to this clause (c) shall not relieve the
Company of its obligation to pay such amount, and such Lender shall have a claim against the Company for such amount. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum (without
duplication) of the total Exposures and unused Commitments at the time. 
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall
assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a
result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after written demand therefor. 

SECTION 10.04. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent
of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this
Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues
any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable
right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any
Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld) of: 
 (A) the Company, provided (1) that no consent of the Company shall be required
for an assignment to a Lender under the Class of Loans being assigned, an Affiliate of a Lender under the Class of Loans being assigned, an Approved Fund with respect to the Class of Loans being assigned or, if an Event of Default under clause (a),
(b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, (2) that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative
Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof and (3) that no consent of the Company shall be required for assignment of Initial Term Loans in connection with the primary syndication thereof; 

  
 158 








 (B) the Administrative Agent; provided, that no consent of the
Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of a Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund; and 

(C) Each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender; provided that no consent therefrom shall be required for an assignment
of all or any portion of a Term Loan or Term Loan Commitment. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following
additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of
the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the aggregate amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 in respect of Commitments or Loans with respect to the Revolving Facility and the U.S. Dollar Equivalent
of $1,000,000 in respect of Commitments or Loans with respect to a Term Facility, unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect
of one Class of Commitments or Loans; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 
 (D) the assignee, if it
shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information
about the Company and its Subsidiaries and their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state
securities laws; and 
 (E) no assignment shall be made to the Company or any Affiliate thereof (which for this purpose shall
be deemed to include an assignee that bears a relationship to the Company as described in Section 108(e)(4) of the Code) except in accordance with Section 2.24; provided that an assignor shall be entitled to conclusively rely
on a certification as to compliance with this clause (E) provided to it by any assignee in an Assignment and Assumption without further inquiry. 

For the purposes of this Section 10.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding
or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an 

  
 159 








 
Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective
date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.03). Any assignment or transfer
by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in
accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated
interest) of the Loans, and principal amount of LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the
Borrowers, the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, the other Agents, and with respect to its own respective interests, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the
assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax certifications required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred
to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in
the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.19(d)
or 11.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued
interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or
more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that
(A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrowers, the Agents, the
Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) no participation shall be sold to a


  
 160 








 
prospective participant that bears a relationship to the Company as described in Section 108(e)(4) of the Code; provided that a party selling a participation shall be entitled to
conclusively rely on a certification as to compliance with this clause (D) provided to it by any party purchasing a participation in a participation purchase agreement without further inquiry. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a
Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or
instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrowers
agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this
Section 10.04; provided that such Participant (A) shall be subject to the requirements and limitations of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17, including the requirements under Section 2.17(e) (it
being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(e) shall be delivered by the Participant to the participating Lender, and delivered by the participating Lender to the Borrower to the extent required under
Section 2.17(e)); (B) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.19 and 2.20 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.04; and (C) shall not be entitled to receive
any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, expect to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a
Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided
such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name
and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). 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. No Lender shall have the obligation to disclose all or a portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any loans or other obligations under
any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any loans are in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure
obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such
pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

SECTION 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties and the Foreign Subsidiary
Guarantors in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued
interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and 

  
 161 








 
unpaid (other than with respect to any obligations under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements and Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations) or any Letter of Credit is
outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or
thereof. 
 SECTION 10.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect
to fees payable to the Agents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as
provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the
signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 10.07.
Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 10.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held
and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other
rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 SECTION 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 

(a) This Agreement and any claims, controversy, dispute or causes of actions (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York; provided, however, that (a) the interpretation of the definition of Citadel Material Adverse Effect and whether there shall have occurred a Citadel Material Adverse
Effect on Citadel, (b) the determination of whether the condition in Section 4.01(e) has been satisfied and (c) the determination of whether the representations made by Citadel or any of its affiliates are accurate and whether
as a result of any inaccuracy of any such representations the Company or its Affiliates have the right to terminate the obligations of the Company or its Affiliates under the Acquisition Agreement or have the right to refuse to consummate the
Acquisition under the Acquisition Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law 

  
 162 








 
provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the applicable of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware. 

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan
Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State
or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be binding (subject to appeal as provided by applicable law) and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(c) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection
which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties
hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01,
and each of the Borrowers hereby appoints the Company as its agent for service of process. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by
law. 
 SECTION 10.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

SECTION 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are
not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel, other advisors and third party service providers (it
being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and 

  
 163 








 
instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any
subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (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 counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the
Company,(h) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or its Related Parties) in Hedging Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available
other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company. For the purposes of this Section,
“Information” means all information received from the Company or any other Borrower relating to the Company, the Borrowers or their businesses, accounts or affairs other than any such information that is available to any Agent, any
Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve
the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Company 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 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. 
 EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.12 FURNISHED
TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC
INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS. 

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE
COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES, AND THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE COMPANY
AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

 SECTION 10.13. Conversion of Currencies. 

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another
currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be
purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 

  
 164 








 (b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder
of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the
“Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with
normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement
Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 10.13 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 
 SECTION 10.14. USA Patriot Act; European
“Know Your Customer” Checks. 
 (a) Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub.
L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties,
which information includes the name and address of such Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Parties in accordance with the Act. 

(b) If (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation made
after the date of this Agreement; (ii) any change in the status of a Borrower after the date of this Agreement; or (iii) a proposed assignment or transfer by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a party
that is not a Lender prior to such assignment or transfer, obliges a Global Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of paragraph (iii) above, any prospective new Lender) to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification
procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, each Borrower shall promptly upon the request of a Global Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is
reasonably requested by such Global Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or, in the case of the event described in paragraph (iii) above, on behalf of any prospective new Lender) in order for such Global
Agent, such Lender or, in the case of the event described in paragraph (iii) above, any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all
applicable laws and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender shall promptly upon the request of a Global Agent supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other
evidence as is reasonably requested by such Global Agent (for itself) in order for such Global Agent to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws
and regulations pursuant to the transactions contemplated in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Company shall, by not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to a Global Agent, notify such Global Agent (which
shall promptly notify the Lenders) of its intention to request that one of its Subsidiaries becomes an additional Borrower. Following the giving of any notice pursuant to paragraph (c) above, if the accession of such additional Borrower obliges
a Global Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Company shall promptly upon the request of a Global
Agent or any Lender supply, or procure the supply of, such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by such Global Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) or any Lender (for itself or on behalf of any prospective new Lender)
in order for such Global Agent or such Lender or any prospective new Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations pursuant to
the accession of such Subsidiary to this Agreement as an additional Borrower.

 SECTION 10.15. English Language. All certificates, instruments and other documents to be
delivered under or supplied in connection with this Agreement shall be in the English language or shall attach a certified English translation thereof, which translation shall be the governing version. Within one month of the delivery of any
financial statements or other information written in a language other than English, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders sufficient copies for all the Lenders of an English translation of such financial statements.

 SECTION 10.16. Borrower Limitations. Other than the Company, each Borrower shall only be liable for its Obligations (including,
without limitation, Loans extended to it) and shall not be liable for any other Borrower’s Obligations. The Company shall be liable for all of the Borrowers’ Obligations and all Secured Obligations. Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall guaranty
the repayment of all Secured Obligations, irrespective of the Borrower or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries that incur such Secured Obligations. 

SECTION 10.17. Platform; Borrower Materials. The Company hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Lead
Arrangers will make available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Company hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Intralinks or
another similar electronic system (the “Platform”), and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Company
and its Subsidiaries or any of their respective securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Company hereby agrees that it will identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that
(i) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Borrower
Materials “PUBLIC,” the Company shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as solely containing information that is either
(A) publicly available information or (B) not material (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Company or the Subsidiaries or any of their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal securities
laws (provided, however, that such Borrower Materials shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.16, to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute information subject to the terms thereof), (iii) all Borrower
Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower
Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, ITS RELATED PARTIES AND THE ARRANGERS DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY
OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY
OR ITS RELATED PARTIES OR ANY ARRANGER IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. 
 SECTION 10.18. Release of Liens and
Guarantees. (a) The Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Swingline Lenders, and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall (1) be
automatically released: (i) in full upon the occurrence of the Termination Date as set forth in Section 10.18(d) below; (ii) upon the Disposition (other than any lease or license) of such Collateral by any Loan Party to a person that
is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement (and the 

  
 166 








 
Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent that such
Collateral comprises property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without
further inquiry), (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 10.02), (v) to
the extent that the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with the Guaranty Agreement or clause (b) below (and the Collateral
Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (vi) as required by the Collateral Agent to effect any Disposition of Collateral in connection
with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, or (vii) in the case of Permitted Receivables Facility Assets, upon the Disposition thereof by any Loan Party to a Receivables Entity of such Permitted
Receivables Facility Assets pursuant to a Permitted Receivables Facility, and (2) be released in the circumstances, and subject to the terms and conditions, provided in Article VIII (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a
certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without any further inquiry). Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those being
released) upon (or obligations (other than those being released) of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any Disposition, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the
Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. 
 (b) In addition, the Lenders, the Issuing
Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably agree that the respective Guarantor shall be released from its respective Guarantee (i) upon consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder (x) resulting in such Subsidiary
ceasing to constitute a Subsidiary or (y) in the case of any Guarantor which would not be required to be a Guarantor because it is or has become an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case following a written request by the Company to the
Administrative Agent requesting that such person no longer constitute a Guarantor and certifying its entitlement to the requested release (and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to the foregoing effect without further
inquiry); provided, that any such release pursuant to preceding clause (y) shall only be effective if (A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, (B) such Subsidiary owns no assets
which were previously transferred to it by another Loan Party which constituted Collateral or proceeds of Collateral (or any such transfer of any such assets would be permitted hereunder immediately following such release), (C) at the time of
such release (and after giving effect thereto), all outstanding Indebtedness of, and Investments previously made in, such Subsidiary would then be permitted to be made in accordance with the relevant provisions of Sections 6.01 and 6.04 (for this
purpose, with the Company being required to reclassify any such items made in reliance upon the respective Subsidiary being a Guarantor on another basis as would be permitted by such applicable Section), and any previous Dispositions thereto
pursuant to Section 6.05 shall be re-characterized and would then be permitted as if same were made to a Subsidiary that was not a Guarantor (and all items described above in this clause (C) shall thereafter be deemed recharacterized as
provided above in this clause (C)) and (D) such Subsidiary shall not be (or shall be simultaneously be released as) a guarantor with respect to any Refinancing Notes, Permitted Debt or any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to the
foregoing or (ii) if the release of such Guarantor is approved, authorized or ratified by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of Lenders whose consent is required in accordance with Section 10.02). 

(c) The Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, to execute
and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral 

  
 167 








 
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.18, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender or any other Secured Party. Upon the effectiveness of any such release,
any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be made. In connection with any release hereunder, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
shall promptly (and the Secured Parties hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Company and at the Company’s expense in
connection with the release of any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Subsidiary, property or asset; provided, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company
containing such certifications as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the applicable Agent’s
reasonable opinion, would expose such Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (iii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or
impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Company or any Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Company or any Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to
constitute part of the Collateral. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 10.18(c) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, on the Termination Date, upon request of the Company, the
Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all
obligations under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, original executed releases of the Mortgages in recordable form, whether or not on the date of such release there may be any (i) obligations in respect of any Secured Hedge
Agreements or any Secured Cash Management Agreement or Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations and (ii) any contingent indemnification obligations or expense reimbursement claims not then due; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall have
received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company containing such certifications as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. Any such release of obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such obligations shall
be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded, avoided or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Company or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or
otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. The Company agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (and their respective representatives) in connection
with taking such actions to release security interests in all Collateral and all obligations under the Loan Documents as contemplated by this Section 10.18(d). 

ARTICLE XI 
 Collection Allocation
Mechanism 
 SECTION 11.01. Implementation of CAM. 

(a) On the CAM Exchange Date, (i) the Commitments shall automatically and without further act be terminated as provided in Article VII
and (ii) the Lenders shall automatically and without further act (and without regard to the provisions of Section 10.04) be deemed to have exchanged interests in the Facilities such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in
each Facility in which it shall participate 

  
 168 








 
as of such date (including such Lender’s interest in the Specified Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such Facility), such Lender shall hold an interest in every one of the
Facilities (including the Specified Obligations of each Loan Party in respect of each such Facility and each LC Reserve Account established pursuant to Section 11.02 below), whether or not such Lender shall previously have participated
therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof. Each Lender and each Loan Party hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person
that acquires a participation in its interests in any Facility. 
 (b) As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange
Date, each payment received by any Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Specified Obligations, and each distribution made by any Agent pursuant to any Security Documents in respect of the Specified Obligations, shall be distributed
to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages. Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of a Specified Obligation shall be paid over to the
Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith. 
 SECTION 11.02. Letters of Credit. 

(a) In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any amount drawn
under a Letter of Credit shall not have been reimbursed any Borrower or with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan, each Revolving Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds and in U.S. dollars, an amount
equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage (as notified to such Lender by the Administrative Agent after giving effect to the CAM Exchange) of such Letter of Credit’s undrawn face amount (or, in the case of any Letter of
Credit denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof) or (to the extent it has not already done so) such Letter of Credit’s unreimbursed drawing (or, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated
in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), together with interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be
applicable at the time to an ABR Revolving Loan in a principal amount equal to such amount, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent shall establish a separate account or accounts for each Revolving Lender (each, an “LC Reserve
Account”) for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of Credit pursuant to the preceding sentence. The Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Revolving Lender’s LC Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of
the amounts received from the Revolving Lenders as provided above. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each LC Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each LC Reserve Account shall be held in such LC Reserve
Account until withdrawn as provided in paragraph (b), (c), (d) or (e) below. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the LC Reserve Accounts in respect of each
Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s LC Reserve Account shall be held as a reserve against the LC Exposure, shall be
the property of such Lender, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Loan Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of the Company or any other Borrower to pay interest to such Lender, it being
agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.05. 

(b) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall,
at the request of the Issuing Bank, withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Revolving Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing (or in the case of any drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated
in a 

  
 169 








 
currency other than U.S. dollars, the U.S. Dollar Equivalent of such drawing), deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to the Issuing
Bank in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Revolving Lenders under Section 2.05(e) (but not of the Company and the other Borrowers under Section 2.05(f), respectively). In the event any Revolving Lender
shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to the Administrative Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 11.02, the Issuing Bank shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against
such Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section 2.05(e), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the exchange of
interests in the reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 11.01. Each other Lender shall have a claim against such defaulting Revolving Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event such
Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount. 
 (c) In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any
Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the LC Reserve Account of each Revolving Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such
Lender. 
 (d) With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, any Revolving Lender may withdraw the
amount held in its LC Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Revolving Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of
Credit, to pay over to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing. 
 (e)

connection with the Credit Agreement. Each of the capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 1. Letter of Credit Commitment. The Issuing Bank hereby agrees to be an “Issuing Bank” under, and, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof and of the Credit Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit under, the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank hereunder shall be subject to the limitations, if
any, set forth on Schedule I hereto, in addition to the limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 2.
Issuance Procedure. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder, the Company shall hand deliver, fax, telecopy or transmit via electronic means (in a form acceptable to the Issuing Bank) a notice (specifying the
information required by Section 2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement) to the Issuing Bank at its address or telecopy number specified on Schedule I hereto (or such other address or telecopy number as the Issuing Bank may specify by
notice to the Company), not later than the time of day (local time at such address) specified on Schedule I hereto prior to the proposed date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. A copy of such notice shall be sent, concurrently, by the
Company to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified for borrowing requests under the Credit Agreement. Upon receipt of such notice, the Issuing Bank shall consult the Administrative Agent by facsimile or e-mail in order to determine
(i) whether the conditions specified in the last sentence of Section 2.05(b) of the Credit Agreement will be satisfied in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii) whether the requested expiration date for
such Letter of Credit complies with Section 2.05(c) of the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 3. Issuing Bank Fees, Interest and
Payments. The fronting fee and the standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder (collectively, the “Issuing Bank Fees”) referred to in
Section 2.12(b) of the Credit Agreement, which are payable to the Issuing Bank in respect of Letters of Credit issued hereunder, are specified on Schedule I hereto (and such fees shall be in addition to the Issuing
Bank’s customary documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance, amendment or transfer of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder). Each 







 
payment of Issuing Bank Fees payable hereunder shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, at the place of payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, to the account of
the Issuing Bank specified on Schedule I hereto or to such other Lender specified on Schedule I hereto (or to such other account of the Issuing Bank as it may specify by notice to the Company). 

SECTION 4. Credit Agreement Terms. Notwithstanding any provision hereof which may be construed to the contrary, it is expressly
understood and agreed that (a) this Agreement is supplemental to the Credit Agreement and is intended to constitute an Issuing Bank Agreement, as defined therein (and, as such, constitutes an integral part of the Credit Agreement as though the
terms of this Agreement were set forth in the Credit Agreement), (b) each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and each LC Disbursement made under any such Letter of Credit shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” and an
“LC Disbursement”, respectively, for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and (c) the Issuing Bank’s commitment to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, and each and every Letter of Credit requested or issued hereunder, shall
in each case be subject to the terms and conditions and entitled to the benefits of the Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 5. Assignment.
The Issuing Bank may not assign its commitment to issue Letters of Credit hereunder without the consent of the Company, the Administrative Agent and prior notice to the Administrative Agent. In the event of an assignment by the Issuing Bank of all
its other interests, rights and obligations under, and pursuant to the terms of, the Credit Agreement, then the Issuing Bank’s commitment to issue Letters of Credit hereunder in respect of the Credit Agreement shall terminate unless the Issuing
Bank, the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise agree. 
 SECTION 6. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed or sent by telecopier (a) if to the Company or the Administrative Agent, to it as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement and
(b) if to the Issuing Bank, to it as provided in Schedule I hereto. 
 SECTION 7. Binding Agreement; Assignments. This
Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company and the Issuing Bank shall not be permitted to assign this
Agreement or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the other parties to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 8. Applicable
Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 SECTION 9.
Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Company herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been
relied upon by the Issuing Bank and shall survive the issuance by the Issuing Bank of the Letters of Credit and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any








 
Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. 

SECTION 10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a
particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions,
the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
 SECTION 11.
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.

 SECTION 12. Interpretation. To the extent that the terms and conditions of this Agreement conflict with the terms and conditions
of the Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement shall control.

W I T N E S S E T H :

time to time as borrowers (the “Foreign Borrowers,” and together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the financial institutions party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”) have entered into that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2015 (as the same may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or
otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), which Credit Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for extensions of credit and other financial accommodations to be made by the Lenders to or
for the benefit of the Borrowers; 
 WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the extensions of credit and other financial accommodations by
the Lenders under the Credit Agreement that each of the Subsidiary Guarantors execute and deliver this Guaranty, whereby each of the Subsidiary Guarantors, without limitation and with full recourse, shall guarantee the payment when due of all
Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, letter of credit reimbursement obligations and other amounts that shall be at any time payable by the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and

 WHEREAS, in consideration of the direct and indirect financial and other support and benefits that one or more of the Borrowers have
provided, and such direct and indirect financial and other support and benefits as one or more of the Borrowers may in the future provide, to the Subsidiary Guarantors, and in consideration of the increased ability of each Subsidiary Guarantor that
is a Subsidiary of any Borrower to receive funds through contributions to capital, and for each Subsidiary Guarantor to receive funds through intercompany advances or otherwise, from funds provided to the Borrowers pursuant to the Credit Agreement
and the flexibility provided by the Credit Agreement for each Subsidiary Guarantor to do so which significantly facilitates the business operations of the Borrowers and each Subsidiary Guarantor and in order to induce the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent to enter into the Credit Agreement, and to make the Loans and the other financial accommodations to the Borrowers and to issue the Letters of Credit described in the Credit Agreement, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors is willing
to guarantee the Secured Obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 







 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors represents and warrants to each Lender and the Administrative Agent as of the date of this Guaranty, giving effect to the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents on the Effective Date, and thereafter on each date as required by Section 4.02 of the Credit Agreement that: 

(a) It (i) is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly
existing and in good standing (to the extent that such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization, (ii) is duly qualified to do business as a foreign entity and is in
good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) under the laws of each jurisdiction where such qualification is required by applicable law, and (iii) has all requisite corporate, partnership or limited
liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to own, operate and encumber its property and to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted or proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) It has the requisite
corporate, limited liability company or partnership, as applicable, power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty and the
performance by each of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate, limited liability company or partnership proceedings, including any required shareholder, member or partner approval, and this Guaranty constitutes a
legal, valid and binding obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor, enforceable against such Subsidiary Guarantor, in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyances,
reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), and (iii) requirements of
reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. 
 (c) Neither the execution and delivery by it of this Guaranty, nor the consummation by it of
the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions hereof, will (i) conflict with the charter or other organizational documents of such Subsidiary Guarantor, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of
or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) a default under any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award (including, without limitation, any environmental property transfer laws or regulations)
applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor or any provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which any of the Borrowers, such Subsidiary Guarantor or any of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Subsidiaries is party or is subject or by which
it or its property is bound or affected, or require termination of any such indenture, instrument or agreement, (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien whatsoever upon any of the property or assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor,
other than Liens permitted or created pursuant to the Loan Documents, or (iv) require any approval of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s board of directors, shareholders, members, partners 

  
 2 








 
or unitholders except such as have been obtained. The execution, delivery and performance by such Subsidiary Guarantor of each of the Loan Documents to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party
do not and will not require any registration with, consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by any Governmental Authority, including under any environmental property transfer act or environmental laws or regulations, except
filings, consents or notices which have been made. 
 (d) It has no Indebtedness other than Indebtedness permitted under
Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement. 
 In addition to the foregoing, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors covenants that, until
the Termination Date, it will, and, if necessary and permitted under applicable law, will cause each of the Borrowers to, fully comply with those covenants and agreements of such Borrower applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor set forth in the
Credit Agreement. 
 SECTION 2. The Guaranty. 

(a) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally with the other Subsidiary
Guarantors, the full and payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, including, without limitation, (i) the principal of and interest on each Loan made to any
Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (ii) obligations owing under or in connection with Letters of Credit, (iii) all other amounts payable by any Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, all obligations in respect of any Secured Cash Management Agreement, obligations in respect of any Secured Hedge Agreement and Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations, and (iv) the performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by
any Borrower of all of the agreements, conditions, covenants, and obligations of such Borrower contained in the Loan Documents (all of the foregoing being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, however,
that the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not create any guarantee by any Subsidiary Guarantor of (or grant of security interest by any Subsidiary Guarantor to support, as applicable) any Excluded Swap Obligations of such
Subsidiary Guarantor for purposes of determining any obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor). Upon the failure by any Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, to pay any such amount or perform such obligation, subject to any
applicable grace or notice and cure period, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay such amount or perform such obligation at the place and in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement or the relevant other
Loan Document, as the case may be. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of collection. 

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary, no Excluded Subsidiary under subsections (f), (h) or (i) of
the definition thereof shall be a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder even if a signatory hereto and the guaranty of such Excluded Subsidiary of any U.S. Borrower Obligation shall automatically be of no force and effect; provided that nothing in
this Section 2(b) shall effect the guaranty of any other Person hereunder, other than such Excluded Subsidiaries. 

  
 3 








 SECTION 3. Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of each of the Subsidiary
Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by:

thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether (in any such case) by operation of law or otherwise, or any failure or omission to enforce any right,
power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Credit Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreement, any Secured Hedge
Agreement, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any such amendment which may increase the amount of, or the interest rates applicable to, any of the Guaranteed
Obligations guaranteed hereby (other than any modification or amendment of or supplement to any of the foregoing that expressly releases a Subsidiary Guarantor); 

(c) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any collateral
securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, any other guaranties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part
thereof, or any nonperfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (d) any change in the
corporate, partnership, limited liability company or other existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding
affecting such Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any of their respective assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of such Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

 (e) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Subsidiary Guarantors may have at any time against any Borrower, any
other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in connection with any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent
the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
 (f) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed
Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability
relating to or against any Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to the Credit Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreement, any Secured Hedge Agreement, any agreement governing Foreign
Subsidiary Secured Obligations or any other Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law, 

  
 4 








 
decree, order or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by such Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligation or otherwise affecting any of term of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations; 
 (g) the failure of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to take any steps to perfect and maintain any security
interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, if any; 
 (h) the election by, or on
behalf of, any one or more of the Secured Parties, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (or any successor statute, the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of
Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; 
 (i) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by any Borrower, as
debtor-in-possession, under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
 (j) the disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code,
of all or any portion of the claims of the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

(k) the failure of any other guarantor to sign or become party to this Guaranty or any amendment, change, or reaffirmation hereof; or 

(l) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the
Administrative Agent, any Secured Party or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder or otherwise reduce, release, prejudice or extinguish its liability under this Guaranty. 
 SECTION 4.
Continuing Guarantee; Discharge; Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. 
 (a) Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations
hereunder shall constitute a continuing and irrevocable guarantee of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until the occurrence of the Termination Date, at which time, subject to all the
foregoing conditions, the guarantees made hereunder shall be terminated. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan, Secured Obligation or any other amount payable by any Borrower or any other party under the Credit
Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreement, any Secured Hedge Agreement, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations or any other Loan Document (including a payment effected through exercise of a right of setoff) is
rescinded, or is or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement related thereto entered into by a Secured Party in its discretion;
provided that, any such settlement shall not increase the amount of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations existing immediately prior to such settlement), each of the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such
payment shall be reinstated to the extent of such rescission, restoration or return. In connection with the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to such Subsidiary Guarantor or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s


  
 5 








 
designee, at such Subsidiary Guarantor’s expense, any documents or instruments which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall reasonably request from time to time to evidence such termination and
release. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that each of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be due and payable in the same currency as such Guaranteed Obligation is denominated, but if currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the
country which issues such currency with the result that such currency (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor is not able to make payment in such Original Currency, then all payments to be
made by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in U.S. Dollars in an amount equal to the U.S. Dollar Equivalent (as of the date of payment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties
hereto that each Subsidiary Guarantor takes all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that, on the Termination Date, any benefits obtained by any counterparty to any other Guaranty or any other Loan Document shall terminate.

 SECTION 5. General Waivers; Additional Waivers. 

(a) General Waivers. Each of the Subsidiary Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand or action on
delinquency, protest, the benefit of any statutes of limitations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein or under the other Loan Documents, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by
any Person against any Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person. 
 (b) Additional Waivers.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby absolutely, unconditionally, knowingly, and expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law: 

(i) any right it may have to revoke this Guaranty as to future indebtedness or notice of acceptance hereof; 

(ii) (1) notice of acceptance hereof; (2) notice of any Loans, Letters of Credit or other financial accommodations made or
extended under the Loan Documents or the creation or existence of any Guaranteed Obligations; (3) notice of the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, subject, however, to each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right to make inquiry of the
Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to ascertain the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations at any reasonable time; (4) notice of any adverse change in the financial condition of any Borrower or of any other fact that might increase such
Subsidiary Guarantor’s risk hereunder; (5) notice of presentment for payment, demand, protest, and notice thereof as to any instruments among the Loan Documents; (6) notice of any Default or Event of Default; and (7) all other
notices (except if such notice is specifically required to be given to such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder or under the Loan Documents) and demands to which each Subsidiary Guarantor might otherwise be entitled; 

  
 6 








 (iii) its right, if any, to require the Collateral Agent, the Administrative
Agent and the other Secured Parties to institute suit against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties has or may have against, the other Subsidiary Guarantors or any
third party, or against any Collateral provided by the other Subsidiary Guarantors, or any third party; and each Subsidiary Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the
Termination Date has occured) of the other Subsidiary Guarantors or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the other Subsidiary Guarantors in respect thereof; 

(iv) (a) any rights to assert against the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties any defense (legal or equitable),
set-off, counterclaim, or claim which such Subsidiary Guarantor may now or at any time hereafter have against the other Subsidiary Guarantors or any other party liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties; (b) any defense,
set-off, counterclaim, or claim, of any kind or nature, arising directly or indirectly from the present or future lack of perfection, sufficiency, validity, or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor; (c) any
defense such Subsidiary Guarantor has to performance hereunder, and any right such Subsidiary Guarantor has to be exonerated, arising by reason of: the impairment or suspension of the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’
rights or remedies against the other Subsidiary Guarantors; the alteration by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties of the Guaranteed Obligations; any discharge of the other Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations to the
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties by operation of law as a result of the Administrative Agent’s and the other Secured Parties’ intervention or omission; or the acceptance by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties of anything in partial satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations; and (d) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof, and any act which shall
defer or delay the operation of any statute of limitations applicable to the Guaranteed Obligations shall similarly operate to defer or delay the operation of such statute of limitations applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability
hereunder; and 
 (v) any defense arising by reason of or deriving from (a) any claim or defense based upon an election
of remedies by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties; or (b) any election by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties under the Bankruptcy Code, to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its claim
against the Subsidiary Guarantors. 
 SECTION 6. Subordination of Subrogation Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. 

(a) Until the Termination Date, the Subsidiary Guarantors (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed
Obligations and (ii) waive any right to enforce any remedy which any of the Issuing Banks, the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent now have or may hereafter have against any Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of
the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and until such time the Subsidiary Guarantors waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given 

  
 7 








 
to the Secured Parties, any Issuing Banks, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other
liability of any Borrower to the Secured Parties, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent. Should any Subsidiary Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
expressly and irrevocably (A) subordinates any and all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Subsidiary Guarantor may have to the payment in full in cash of the
Guaranteed Obligations until the Termination Date and (B) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Termination Date. Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this
subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative
Agent, the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 6(a). 

(b) Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of such Subsidiary Guarantor
against any Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part
of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Guaranteed Obligations until the Termination Date; provided that, as long as no
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Subsidiary Guarantor may receive payments of principal and interest from any Obligor with respect to Intercompany Indebtedness to the extent not prohibited by the other terms of the Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding any right of any Subsidiary Guarantor to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Subsidiary Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and
howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in those assets. No Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to possession
of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until the Termination Date. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution,
division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action
or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any
payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Subsidiary Guarantor (“Intercompany
Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or to become due, until the Termination Date. Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument
or proceeds thereof be received by the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the termination of all
financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrowers and the Secured Parties, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall


  
 8 








 
forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Subsidiary
Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Subsidiary Guarantor as the property of the Secured Parties. If any such Subsidiary
Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of their officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each
Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that until the Termination Date, no Subsidiary Guarantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent) any claim any such Subsidiary Guarantor has or may have against any Obligor. 

SECTION 7. Contribution with Respect to Guaranteed Obligations. 

(a) To the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor shall make a payment under this Guaranty (a “Subsidiary Guarantor Payment”)
which, taking into account all other Subsidiary Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Subsidiary Guarantor, exceeds the amount which otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Subsidiary Guarantor if
each Subsidiary Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations satisfied by such Subsidiary Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined below) (as determined
immediately prior to such Subsidiary Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors as determined immediately prior to the making of such Subsidiary Guarantor Payment, then, following the
Termination Date, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Subsidiary Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their
respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Subsidiary Guarantor Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty, the amount guaranteed by each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any,
required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common
law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation or contribution which
such Subsidiary Guarantor may have under this Guaranty, any other agreement or applicable law shall be taken into account. 
 (b) As of any
date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be equal to the excess of the fair saleable value of the property of such Subsidiary Guarantor over the total liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor
(including the maximum amount reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities, calculated, without duplication, assuming each other Subsidiary Guarantor that is also liable for such contingent liability pays its ratable share
thereof), giving effect to all payments made by such other Subsidiary Guarantors as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such contributions. 

(c) This Section 7 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Subsidiary Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this
Section 7 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of 

  
 9 








 
the Subsidiary Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty. 

(d) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Subsidiary
Guarantor or Subsidiary Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. 
 (e) The rights of the indemnifying Subsidiary
Guarantors against other Subsidiary Guarantors under this Section 7 shall be exercisable upon the occurrence of the Termination Date. 

SECTION 8. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Borrower under the Credit
Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreements, any Secured Hedge Agreements, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Borrower
or any of its Affiliates, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreements, any Secured Hedge Agreements, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured
Obligations or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 9. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be given in the manner prescribed
in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement with respect to the Administrative Agent at its notice address therein and, with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor, in the care of the Company at the address of the Company set forth in the
Credit Agreement, or such other address or telecopy number as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 10. No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in exercising any right, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this
Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreement, any Secured Hedge Agreement, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations and the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
remedies provided by law. 
 SECTION 11. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent
and the Secured Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, that no Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of the Administrative Agent, and any
such assignment in violation of this Section 11 shall be null and void; and in the event of an assignment of any amounts payable under the Credit Agreement, any Secured Cash Management Agreement, any Secured Hedge Agreement, any
agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations or the other Loan Documents in accordance with the respective terms thereof, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such


  
 10 








 
indebtedness. This Guaranty shall be binding upon each of the Subsidiary Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns. 

SECTION 12. Changes in Writing. Other than in connection with the addition of additional Subsidiaries, which become parties hereto
by executing a Guaranty Supplement, neither this Guaranty nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only in writing signed by each of the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 13. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. 

(a) THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

(b) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of
the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or
proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced
in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Guaranty or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to
bring any action or proceeding relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document against any Subsidiary Guarantor or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any
objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this
Section 13. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(d) Each party to this Guaranty irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9 of this
Guaranty, and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby appoints the Company as its agent for service of process. Nothing in this Guaranty or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Guaranty to serve process in any other
manner permitted by law.

BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS 

  
 11 








 
GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH GUARANTOR (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER GUARANTOR
HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER GUARANTOR WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER GUARANTORS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS GUARANTY
BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14. 
 SECTION 15. No Strict
Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Guaranty. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Guaranty shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the
parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Guaranty. 

SECTION 16. Taxes, Expenses of Enforcement, Etc.  

(a) Taxes. 

(i) Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to comply with Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement as if it were a party
thereto. 
 (ii) By accepting the benefits hereof, each Foreign Lender agrees that it will comply with
Section 2.17(e) of the Credit Agreement. 
 (b) Expenses of Enforcement, Etc. Subject to the terms of the Credit
Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default the Lenders shall have the right at any time to direct the Administrative Agent to commence enforcement proceedings with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. The Subsidiary
Guarantors agree to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for any costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees
and time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Secured
Parties in connection with the collection and enforcement of amounts due under the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, this Guaranty. The Administrative Agent agrees to distribute payments received from any of the Subsidiary Guarantors
hereunder to the Secured Parties on a pro rata basis for application in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 17. Setoff. At any time after all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations have become due and payable (by acceleration
or otherwise), each Secured Party, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may, without notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor and regardless of the acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof, set off and apply toward the
payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated at any time held) and other obligations at any time owing by such Secured
Party or the Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any 

  
 12 








 
Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all the Guaranteed Obligations, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party or the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand under this
Guaranty and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Secured Party or the Administrative Agent under this Section 17 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such
Secured Party or the Administrative Agent may have. 
 SECTION 18. Financial Information. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby
assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrowers, the other Subsidiary Guarantors and any and all endorsers and/or other guarantors of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and of all other
circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that none of the Secured Parties or the Administrative Agent shall
have any duty to advise such Subsidiary Guarantor of information known to any of them regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Secured Party or the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or
from time to time to provide any such information to a Subsidiary Guarantor, such Secured Party or the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation (i) to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (ii) to
disclose any information which such Secured Party or the Administrative Agent, pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures of such
information or any other information to such Subsidiary Guarantor. 
 SECTION 19. Severability. Wherever possible, each
provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the
extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty. 

SECTION 20. Merger. This Guaranty represents the final agreement of each of the Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the matters
contained herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous agreements, or subsequent oral agreements, between each such Subsidiary Guarantor and any Secured Party or the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 21. Headings. Section headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and shall not govern the
interpretation of any provision of this Guaranty. 
 SECTION 22. Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in
any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance
with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. The obligations of each Subsidiary
Guarantor in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other
than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the 

  
 13 








 
Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in
the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Subsidiary
Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors contained in this Section 22 shall survive the
termination of this Guaranty and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 
 SECTION 23. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP
Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in
respect of Specified Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations
under this Section 23 or otherwise under this Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this
Section 23 shall remain in full force and effect until a discharge of such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that
this Section 23 constitute, and this Section 23 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of
the Commodity Exchange Act. As used herein, “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Specified Swap Obligation, each Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant Guarantee or grant of the
relevant security interest becomes or would become effective with respect to such Specified Swap Obligation or such other Person as constitutes an ECP and can cause another Person to qualify as an ECP at such time by entering into a keepwell under
Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 SECTION 24. Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of
this Guaranty by telecopy, e-mailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Guaranty. The words
“execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to any document to be signed in connection with this Guaranty and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to
include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, 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.

filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country), including this Agreement, the Copyright Security Agreement, the Patent Security
Agreement and the Trademark Security Agreement, or other documents for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interest granted by such Pledgor hereunder, without the signature of such Pledgor, and

delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, in each case in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank and that the Collateral
Agent has a perfected first priority security interest therein. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that all certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral acquired by such Pledgor after the date hereof shall
promptly (but in any event within the time periods required by Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement) be delivered to and held by or on behalf of the Collateral Agent pursuant hereto. All certificated Securities Collateral shall be in
suitable form for transfer by delivery or shall be accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall have the right, with written
notice to the Company at any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for
negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral, without any indication that such Securities Collateral is subject to the security interest hereunder. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates representing or evidencing Securities Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations. 

SECTION 3.2. Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral. 

(a) Each Pledgor understands that the Collateral Agent desires a perfected first priority security interest in all uncertificated Pledged
Securities pledged by it hereunder that are in existence on the date hereof. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that if any of the Pledged Securities are at any time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, (i) cause the issuer of Pledged Securities that is not a party to this Agreement to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged Securities substantially in the
form of Exhibit 1 hereto or such other form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and (ii) if necessary to perfect a security interest in such uncertificated Pledged Securities, cause such pledge to be recorded on
the equityholder register or the books of the issuer, execute any customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or reasonably requested to complete the pledge and give the Collateral Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Securities under
the terms hereof. 
 (b) In the case of each Pledgor which is an issuer of Securities Collateral, such Pledgor agrees (i) to be bound
by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Securities Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it and (ii)

that it will during the continuance of an Event of Default comply with instructions of the Collateral Agent with respect to such Securities Collateral (including all Equity Interests of such
issuer) without further consent by such Pledgor. 
 SECTION 3.3. Financing Statements and Other Filings; Maintenance of Perfected
Security Interest. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all financing statements, agreements, instruments and other documents necessary to perfect the security interest granted by it to the Collateral Agent in respect of the Collateral have
been delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed and, to the extent necessary or appropriate, duly executed form for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate; provided,
however, that it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that deposit account control agreements, securities account control agreements and commodities account control agreements shall not be required hereunder or the Credit Agreement with respect to all
Money and all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts. Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and reasonable expense of the Pledgors, such Pledgor will maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the
Collateral as a perfected first priority security interest subject only to Permitted Liens and file all UCC-3 continuation statements necessary to continue the perfection of the security interest created by this Agreement, subject to the proviso in
the immediately preceding sentence. 
 SECTION 3.4. Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and
priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, each Pledgor represents and warrants (as to itself) as follows and agrees, in each case at such Pledgor’s own
expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Collateral:

Paper. As of the date hereof, no amounts payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral are evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 10
to the Perfection Certificate. Each Instrument and each item of Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 10 to the Perfection Certificate, to the extent requested by the Collateral Agent, has been properly endorsed, assigned and delivered to
the Collateral Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank. If any amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such
amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper not previously delivered to the Collateral Agent exceeds $2,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument or Tangible
Chattel Paper shall promptly (but in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request from time to time.

Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims with a value, individually, 

  
 -11- 








 
equal to or greater than $5,000,000 other than those listed in Schedule 12 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim with a
value, individually, equal to or greater than $5,000,000, such Pledgor shall immediately notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest
therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. 

SECTION 3.5. Joinder of Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause each Domestic Subsidiary of the Company which, from
time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a
Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within ten (10) Business Days after the Company’s delivery, pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) of
the Credit Agreement, as applicable, of the financial statements for the fiscal period at the end of which such Person first becomes a Domestic Subsidiary (or such later date as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion)
and, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Subsidiary Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Guarantor and
Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of
any new Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor
shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable
judgment deem necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the
purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies
hereunder with respect to any Collateral, including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction
with respect to the security interest created hereby, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office) wherever required
by law to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceability and priority of the security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, as against
third parties, with respect to the Collateral, other than Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts with respect to which deposit account control agreements, securities account control agreements and commodities account control
agreements, respectively, shall not be required. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon


  
 -12- 








 
reasonable request by the Collateral Agent such lists, schedules, descriptions and designations of the Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts,
bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other
assurances or instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request, other than Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts with respect to which deposit account control agreements, securities account control agreements and
commodities account control agreements, respectively, shall not be required. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and
proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any material impairment of the security interest in or the perfection thereof in the Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost
and reasonable expense of the Pledgors. The Pledgors and the Collateral Agent acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is intended to grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in and Lien upon the
Collateral and shall not constitute or create a present assignment of any of the Collateral. 
 ARTICLE IV 

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS 

Each Pledgor represents, warrants and covenants as follows: 

SECTION 4.1. Title. Except for the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant
to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns and has rights and, as to Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof, will own and have rights in each item of Collateral pledged by it hereunder, which Collateral shall
be free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others other than Permitted Liens. In addition, no Liens or claims exist on the Securities Collateral, other than as permitted by Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 4.2. Validity of Security Interest. The security interest in and Lien on the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for

described in Schedule 6 to the Perfection Certificate (to the extent required to be listed on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate as of the date this representation is made or deemed made), a perfected security interest in all the
Collateral; provided, however, that it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that deposit account control agreements, securities account control agreements and commodities account control agreements shall not be required hereunder or the Credit
Agreement with respect to all Money and all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts. The security interest and Lien granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement in and on

Credit Agreement, each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and reasonable expense, defend title to the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof against
all claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and reasonable expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Permitted Liens. As of the date hereof, except as
permitted by the Credit Agreement, there is no agreement (other than with respect to a Permitted Lien) and, after the date hereof, no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement (other than with respect to a Permitted Lien) or take any other action, that
would restrict the transferability of any of the Collateral or otherwise materially impair or conflict with such Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder. 

SECTION 4.4. Other Financing Statements. It has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor will there be), any valid or
effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Collateral, except such as have been filed in favor
of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Lien with respect to such Permitted Lien or financing statements or public notices relating to the termination statements listed on Schedule 8 to the
Perfection Certificate. Other than as permitted by the Credit Agreement, no Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under

the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable to the extent applicable. There is no amount or other obligation owing by
any Pledgor to any issuer of the Pledged Securities in exchange for or in connection with the issuance of the Pledged Securities or any Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Pledged Securities. 

SECTION 4.6. Consents, etc. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or
attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor
agrees to use its best efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL 

PROPERTY COLLATERAL 
 SECTION
6.1. Grant of Intellectual Property License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent
shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any
of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all
computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. With respect to Trademarks, such license shall be subject to the requirement that the quality of goods and services offered under the Trademarks be substantially consistent with the
quality of the goods and services offered thereunder by such Pledgor prior to the Collateral Agent’s exercise of rights and remedies. 

SECTION 6.2. Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. On a continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and
reasonable expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Collateral Agent of any adverse determination in any proceeding or the institution of any proceeding in any federal, state or local court or administrative body
or in 

  
 -17- 








 
the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office regarding any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, such Pledgor’s right to register such Material
Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) maintain all Material Intellectual Property Collateral as presently used and operated, (iii) not permit to lapse or become
abandoned any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, and not settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any such Material Intellectual Property Collateral, in either case except as shall be
consistent with commercially reasonable business judgment, (iv) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the
value or utility of any Material Intellectual Property Collateral or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in relation thereto including a levy or threat of levy or any legal process against any Material Intellectual Property Collateral,
(v) not license any Intellectual Property Collateral other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses in a manner that materially and
adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral created therein
hereby, without the consent of the Collateral Agent, (vi) diligently keep adequate records respecting all Intellectual Property Collateral and (vii) furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s request
therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property Collateral as the Collateral
Agent may from time to time request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent any Pledgor from settling, disposing of, or otherwise using any Intellectual Property Collateral as permitted under the Credit Agreement. 

SECTION 6.3. After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time prior to the Termination Date, (i) obtain any rights to
any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or
continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, or if any intent-to use trademark application is no longer subject to clause (viii) of the definition of Excluded
Property, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted
Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. With respect to any federally registered Intellectual Property
Collateral, Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights
described in clauses (i) and (ii) above by execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, preserve, protect or
perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral, including prompt recordals with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable. Further, each
Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this

Agreement by amending Schedules 11(a) and 11(b) to the Perfection Certificate to include any Intellectual Property Collateral of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date
hereof. 
 SECTION 6.4. Litigation. Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall have the
right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other
actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties
to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all documents requested by
the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent for all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under
this Section 6.4 in accordance with Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, at the
reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, to take all commercially reasonable actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value of or
other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral by any person.

records of each Receivable, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all other documentation relating thereto. Each Pledgor shall, at
such Pledgor’s sole cost and reasonable expense, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Receivables, including all
documents evidencing Receivables and any books and records relating thereto to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Pledgor). Upon the occurrence and during the

person that has acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Receivables or the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor.

made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and in form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, the Receivables and the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or
pertaining to the Receivables with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Receivables have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Collateral Agent has a security interest therein.

material term thereof or make any material adjustment with respect thereto except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice, or extend or renew any such indebtedness except in the ordinary course of business
consistent with prudent business practice or compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Receivable or interest therein except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business

SECTION 7.4. Collection. Each Pledgor shall cause to be collected from the Account Debtor of each of the Receivables, as and when due
in the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practice (including Receivables that are delinquent, such Receivables to be collected in accordance with generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all
amounts owing under or on account of such Receivable, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such Receivable, except that any Pledgor may, with respect to a Receivable, allow in
the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit consistent with commercially reasonable business practice and (ii) such extensions of time to pay amounts due in respect of Receivables and such other modifications of payment terms or
settlements in respect of Receivables as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such Pledgor’s ordinary course of business consistent with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs
and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, shall be paid by the Pledgors. 

ARTICLE VIII

REMEDIES 
 SECTION 9.1.
Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, at the direction of the Required Lenders or as it deems reasonably necessary or advisable in its discretion, from time to time
exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies: 

(i) Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from any Pledgor
or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located, remove such Collateral, remain present
at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any Pledgor; 

(ii) Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Collateral
including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral
Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any
Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than three
(3) Business Days after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 
 (iii) Sell, assign, grant a
license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the
proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 
 (iv) Take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof,
by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the
place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent
and (C) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver
the Collateral as contemplated in this Section 9.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application 

  
 -21- 








 
to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 

(v) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 

(vi) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and
exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Collateral; and 
 (vii) Exercise
all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the
Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or
prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Collateral
or any part thereof at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of
the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the
property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may
at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Collateral or any part thereof regardless of notice of sale having been given. The
Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor
hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale
was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. 

SECTION 9.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the
Collateral or any part thereof shall be required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall
be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any 

  
 -22- 








 
Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 

SECTION 9.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or
judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of the Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies
and any such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other
requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium
now or hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of
the Collateral Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein
and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under
such Pledgor. 
 SECTION 9.4. Certain Sales of Collateral. 

(a) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental
Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may
be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made
in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 

(b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state securities laws,
the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or
Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than
those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be
deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of
time 

  
 -23- 








 
necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer
would agree to do so. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event
of Default, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, cause any registration, qualification under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or
any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and reasonable expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and
will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including
registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority.
Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the
Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the
Collateral Agent and all others participating in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or
in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 
 (d) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all
of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may
request in order to determine the number of securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect. 
 (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach
and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific
performance of such covenants except for a defense that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the relevant Pledgor or Pledgors have been released from its or their obligations in accordance with the express terms of
the Credit Agreement and (iii) the Termination Date has occurred. 

  
 -24- 








 SECTION 9.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

(a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the
Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and
are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 
 (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall
have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or
shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to
the Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 

SECTION 9.6. Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights and Goodwill and such other documents as
are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof; provided that such assignments shall be reassigned to the applicable Pledgor within five (5) Business Days of such time as the Collateral Agent has received written
notice from the applicable Peldgor that all Events of Default have been cured or waived in accordance with the Credit Agreement. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall make
available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor’s employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate to permit such Pledgor
to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights, and such persons shall be available to perform their prior functions on
the Collateral Agent’s behalf. 
 ARTICLE X 

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 

SECTION 10.1. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or
other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, 

  
 -25- 








 
together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.19(f) of the Credit Agreement. 

ARTICLE XI 
 MISCELLANEOUS 

SECTION 11.1. Concerning Collateral Agent. 

(a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent
hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action
(including the release or substitution of the Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or
misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being
understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent may resign
and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.
After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. 

(b) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its
possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither
the Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral,
whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Collateral. 

(c) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone
message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with re-

  
 -26- 








 
spect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. 

(d) If any item of Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security
agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the
Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control. 
 (e) The Collateral Agent may rely on
advice of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in Section 5.10(e) of the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to
the Collateral Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor’s property constituting Collateral, for
which the Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and
agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Pledgor. 

SECTION 11.2. Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any
covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay and discharge any taxes, assessments and special assessments, levies,
fees and governmental charges imposed upon or assessed against, and landlords’, carriers’, mechanics’, workmen’s, repairmen’s, laborers’, materialmen’s, suppliers’ and warehousemen’s Liens and other
claims arising by operation of law against, all or any portion of the Collateral, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Collateral) or if any representation or
warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided,
however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not
contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement. Neither
the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any
breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor,
or otherwise, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this
Agreement and the other Security Docu-

  
 -27- 








 
ments which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third
party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall
lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 
 SECTION 11.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall
create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the
benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit
with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall
thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Secured Party that is a party to a Hedging
Agreement, a Cash Management Agreement or an agreement governing any Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations, such Hedging Agreement, Cash Management Agreement or agreement governing such Foreign Subsidiary Secured Obligations, as applicable. Each of
the Pledgors agrees that its obligations hereunder and the security interest created hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of all or any part of the Secured Obligations
is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise. 

SECTION 11.4. Termination; Release. Upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, this Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of
this Agreement the Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the
request and at the sole cost and reasonable expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Collateral Agent has not
encumbered the released assets, such of the Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof,
and, with respect to any other Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Collateral, as the
case may be. 
 SECTION 11.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any
provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment,
modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof 

  
 -28- 








 
in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any other
document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 

SECTION 11.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required
or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Company set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent,
addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery with the terms of this
Section 11.6. 
 SECTION 11.7. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial.
Sections 10.09 and 10.10 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein, mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. 

SECTION 11.8. Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall,
as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 11.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto
may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the
same agreement. Delivery of any executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.10. Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a
Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on such other
day. 
 SECTION 11.11. No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the
principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax
on the Collateral or any part thereof. 

  
 -29- 








 SECTION 11.12. No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement
shall constitute any consent or request by the Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving
any Pledgor any right, power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in
respect thereof or any claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 

SECTION 11.13. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor the exercise by the Collateral Agent of
any of the rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Collateral or from any
liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part
to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of
such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither the Collateral
Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be
obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document included in the Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor
contained in this Section 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

SECTION 11.14. Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

 (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any
other Pledgor; 
 (ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any agreement governing any Foreign
Subsidiary Secured Obligations or any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
 (iii)
any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any agreement governing
For-

waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Credit Agreement, any agreement governing Foreign Subsidiary Secure Obligations or any other Loan Document except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant
to the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof; or 
 (vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor (other than the occurrence of the Termination Date);

Agreement shall terminate upon the occurrence fo the Termination Date.

[Form of] 
 JOINDER AGREEMENT 

[Name of New Pledgor] 
 [Address of
New Pledgor] 
 [Date] 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Reference is made to the Security Agreement (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Security Agreement;” capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement), dated as of June 1, 2015 made by A. Schulman, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as collateral agent (in such capacity and together with any successors in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”). 

This Joinder Agreement supplements the Security Agreement and is delivered by the undersigned,
[                    ] (the “New Pledgor”), pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor hereby
agrees to be bound as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as a Pledgor party to the Security Agreement by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a
signatory to the Security Agreement on the date of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor also hereby agrees to be bound as a party by all of the terms, covenants and conditions applicable to it set forth in Articles V, VI and
IX of the Credit Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Credit Agreement on the execution date of the Credit Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the New Pledgor
hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and
security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and 







 
under the Collateral and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Subsidiary Guarantor and Pledgor thereunder. The New Pledgor hereby makes each of the representations and
warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to the Pledgors contained in the Security Agreement and Article III of the Credit Agreement. 

Annexed hereto are supplements to each of the schedules to the Perfection Certificate and the Credit Agreement, as applicable, with respect
to the New Pledgor. Such supplements shall be deemed to be part of the Perfection Certificate or the Credit Agreement, as applicable.

	 	2.2	Words importing the singular shall include the plural and vice-versa.

	 	3.	PLEDGE 

  

	 	3.1	As security for the prompt and complete payment and performance in full when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise, of the Secured Obligations, the
Pledgor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally grants a continuing first-ranking pledge in favor of the Collateral Agent, acting for and on behalf of Secured Parties under the Loan Documents, over the Pledged Collateral. The Pledge shall also cover
any future extension of the Secured Obligations. 

  

	 	3.2	The Collateral Agent accepts the Pledge. 

  

	 	3.3	The Pledge shall be a continuing security, shall remain in force until released in accordance with Clauses 14 and 15 below, and shall in particular not be discharged by reason of the circumstance that there is
temporarily no Secured Obligation currently owing to the Collateral Agent. 

  

	 	3.4	For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent agree that nothing in this Agreement shall exclude a transfer of all or part of the Pledge created hereunder by operation of law upon the transfer or

	 	4.	PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY 

  

	 	4.1	The Pledge over the Pledged Collateral shall forthwith be registered in the shareholders’ register of the Company in accordance with Article 5(3) of the Luxembourg law of August 5, 2005 on financial collateral

	 	4.2.1	instruct and appoint any manager and any employee of the Company, acting individually, to register the Pledge in the shareholders’ register of the Company, and 


  
 6

by Luxembourg law. 

  

	 	5.	EFFECTIVENESS OF SECURITY 

  

	 	5.1	The Pledge shall be a continuing, first-ranking security and shall not be considered as satisfied or discharged or prejudiced by any intermediate payment, satisfaction or settlement of any part of the Secured
Obligations and shall remain in full force and effect until payment and discharge in full of all the Secured Obligations. 

  

	 	5.2	The Pledge shall be cumulative, in addition to and independent of every other security or security interest which the Collateral Agent may at any time hold as security for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers
and remedies provided by law and shall not operate so as in any way to prejudice or affect or be prejudiced or affected by any security interest or other right or remedy which the Collateral Agent may now or at any time in the future have in respect
of the Secured Obligations. None of such other security or security interest shall be merged in any way with the Pledge. 

  

	 	5.3	Except as authorized in the Loan Documents, neither the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Agreement nor the rights, powers and remedies conferred upon the Collateral Agent by this Agreement or by law, nor the
Pledge created hereby shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by: 

  

	 	5.3.1	any amendment to, or any Variation, waiver or release of, any of the Secured Obligations; or 

  

	 	5.3.2	any failure to take, or fully to take, any security contemplated by the Loan Documents or otherwise agreed to be taken in respect of any of the Secured Obligations, subject to Clause 14 below; or 


 

	 	5.3.3	any failure to realize or to fully realize the value of, or any release, discharge, exchange or substitution of, any security taken in respect of any of the Secured Obligations; or 


 

	 	5.3.4	any other act, event or omission which, but for this Clause 5, might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations of the Pledgor contained in this Agreement and/or the rights, powers and
remedies conferred upon the Collateral Agent by this Agreement, the Pledge or by law. 


  
 7 









	 	5.4	To the extent applicable the Pledgor hereby waives any rights it may have under Articles 2021, 2022 and 2026 of the Luxembourg Civil Code or any other applicable law or regulation of first requiring the Collateral Agent
to proceed against or claim payment from, or to divide any action between and against, any other person or enforce any guarantee or security before enforcing this Pledge. 


 

	 	5.5	The Pledgor hereby waives any rights it may have under Article 2032 of the Luxembourg Civil Code or any other similar applicable law.

	 	6.	RIGHTS ATTACHING TO SHARES 

  

	 	6.1	The voting rights and other rights attaching or pertaining to the Shares, irrespective of the legal or contractual source of such rights, shall be allocated to the fullest extent permitted by the Collateral Law between
the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the following provisions: 

  

	 	6.1.1	Until the occurrence of an Event of Default, the voting rights at any ordinary or extraordinary shareholders’ meeting of the Company shall belong to the Pledgor, provided that the Pledgor will not exercise or
refrain from exercising any such right, as the case may be, if, in each case in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, such action (or inaction) could reasonably be expected to affect adversely in any material respect the value of any Shares or
otherwise could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; 

  

	 	6.1.2	 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, and in derogation to what is provided for in Clause 6.1.1, the Collateral Agent may, by giving a prior

voting rights in accordance with and within the limits provided under Clause 6.1.1 above.

any such party. No such violation shall limit or impair the rights of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party hereunder. 
  

	 	14.	DURATION AND INDEPENDENCE

Collateral Agent or any Secured Party.

 EXHIBIT L 

AUCTION PROCEDURES 
 This Exhibit L is
intended to summarize certain basic terms of the modified Dutch auction (an “Auction”) procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.24 of that certain Agreement of which this
Exhibit L is a part (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and
conditions of an Auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, or any of their respective affiliates or any officers, directors,
employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact of such Persons (together with the Administrative Agent and its affiliates, the “Agent-Related Person”) makes any recommendation pursuant to any offering document as to whether or not any
Lender should sell its Term Loans to the Company pursuant to any offering documents, nor shall the decision by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent-Related Person (or any of their affiliates) in its respective capacity as
a Lender to sell its Term Loans to the Company be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make its own decision on whether to sell any of its Term Loans and, if it decides to do so, the principal amount of and price to be
sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning each Auction and the relevant offering documents. Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined in this Exhibit L have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. 
 1. Notice Procedures.
In connection with each Auction, the Company will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Term Loan Lenders of the applicable Class of Term Loans (each, an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall
contain (i) the maximum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans of each applicable Class that the Company offers to purchase in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”) which shall be no less than
$25,000,000 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent) (across all such Classes); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) expressed as a range
of prices per $1,000 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof (in increments of $5 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof), at which the Company would be willing to purchase Term Loans of each applicable Class in such Auction; and
(iii) the date on which such Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 1:00 p.m. (New York time) (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager, such time the “Expiration
Time”). Such Expiration Time may be extended for a period not exceeding three (3) Business Days upon notice by the Company to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided that
only one extension per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (x) the Company withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (y) the Expiration Time
occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. In the event of a failed auction, the Company shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such
withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether
successful or failed) of the 







 
previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction. 

2. Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Term Loan Lender of each applicable Class wishing to participate in such
Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation, in the form included in the respective offering document (each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par
that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof (in increments of $5 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof) in principal amount of Term Loans of each applicable Class (the “Reply Price”)
within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of Term Loans of each applicable Class, in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or the U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof or the
U.S. Dollar Equivalent thereof, that such Lender offers for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”). A Term Loan Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements
described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the Term Loans of each applicable Class held by such Term Loan Lender. Term Loan Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three
(3) component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Term Loan Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the
participating Term Loan Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an assignment and acceptance in the form included in the offering document (each, an “Auction Assignment and Assumption”). The Company will
not purchase any Term Loans of any applicable Class at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount
Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price. 
 3. Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and
Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Company, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for such Auction within the Discount Range for such
Auction that will allow the Company to complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Company has received Qualifying Bids). The Company shall purchase Term Loans of each applicable
Class from each Term Loan Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All Term Loans included in Qualifying
Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid) received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at such applicable Reply Prices and shall not be subject to proration. 

4. Proration Procedures. All Term Loans of each applicable Class offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component thereof)
constituting Qualifying Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided, that if the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans of any applicable
Class for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans of such Class to be purchased at prices below the
Applicable 







 
Threshold Price), the Company shall purchase the Term Loans of such Class for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal
amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids or any component thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price. 

5. Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price
and proration factor onto an internet or intranet site (including an IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other electronic workspace) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by 4:00 p.m. New York time on the same Business
Day as the date the Return Bids were due (as such due date may be extended in accordance with this Exhibit L). The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of Term Loans of each applicable Class to be assigned and the applicable
settlement date into each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon the request of the submitting Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Auction Assignment and Assumption received
in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid. 
 6. Auction Assignment and Assumption. Each Auction Notice and
Auction Assignment and Assumption shall contain the following representations, warranties and covenants by the Company: 
  

	 	(a)	The conditions set forth in Section 2.24 of the Credit Agreement have each been satisfied on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such conditions refer to conditions that must be satisfied as
of a future date, in which case the Company must terminate any Auction if it fails to satisfy one of more of the conditions which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans of any applicable
Class pursuant to an Auction. 

  

	 	(b)	The representations and warranties of each Loan Party contained in Article III of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or which are contained in any document furnished at any time under or in
connection herewith or therewith, shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true
and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes hereof, the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.04 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent
statements furnished pursuant to Section 4.01 or clauses (a) and (b) of Section 5.01 of the Credit Agreement. 


7. Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Company may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, (i) as
of such time, no Qualifying Bid has been received by the Auction Manager or (ii) the Company has failed to meet a condition set forth in Section 2.24 of the Credit Agreement. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon
submission by a Lender of a Return Bid, such Lender will not have any withdrawal rights. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be 







 
modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Lender. However, an Auction may become void if the conditions to the purchase of Term Loans of any applicable Class by the Company required by the
terms and conditions of Section 2.24 of the Credit Agreement are not met. The purchase price in respect of each Qualifying Bid for which purchase by the Company is required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be paid
directly by the Company to the respective assigning Lender on a settlement date as determined jointly by the Company and the Auction Manager (which shall be not later than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Company
shall execute each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans of each applicable Class that are the subject of an
Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Company, and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.24 of the Credit
Agreement or this Exhibit L. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the offering document, in consultation with the Company, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not inconsistent with
the terms of Section 2.24 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit L. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent-Related Person or any of their respective affiliates assumes any responsibility for the
accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Company, the Loan Parties, or any of their affiliates (whether contained in an offering document or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the
significance or accuracy of such information. This Exhibit L shall not require the Company to initiate any Auction.

on the date hereof, and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans: 
  

	 	a.	The fair value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, exceeds, on a consolidated basis, their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; 


 

	 	b.	The present fair saleable value of the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability, on a consolidated basis, of
their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured;

contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured. For purposes of the foregoing, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an
actual and matured liability.
