the Applicant Party (if other than the Borrower) shall be jointly and severally liable for reimbursing such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement in Dollars, not later than 5:00 p.m.,
Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the date the Borrower receives notice under paragraph (i) of this Section of such L/C Disbursement; provided that, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set
forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that (i) solely in the case of the R/C Letters of Credit, such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing, in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so
financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing, (ii) in the case of Bonding L/C Disbursements, the Borrower’s reimbursement obligation shall
be satisfied as provided in Section 2.05(g)(i) and (iii) in the case of Term L/C Disbursements the Borrower’s reimbursement obligation shall be satisfied as provided in Section 2.05(g)(ii). 

(f) If, in the case of any Revolving L/C Disbursement, the Borrower or the Applicant Party (if other than the Borrower) fails to reimburse any
such L/C Disbursement when due, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank and each other applicable Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower or the
Applicant Party (if other than the Borrower) and, in the case of a Revolving Facility Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable Revolving Facility Lender shall pay to
the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Revolving Facility Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, 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 Revolving Facility Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Facility Lenders. Promptly
following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Facility Lenders have
made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing
Bank for any L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of an ABR Revolving Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement. 

  
 51 








 (g) Repayment of Bonding Facility Letters of Credit and Term Facility Letters of Credit.

 (i) In the case of Bonding Facility Letters of Credit, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank with
respect to such drawing shall be satisfied by funds withdrawn by the Administrative Agent from the Bonding Facility Letter of Credit Account and transferred to the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.04(a)(iii)) (and the Borrower hereby
irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to make such withdrawals and transfers). 
 (ii) In the case of
Term Facility Letters of Credit, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank with respect to such drawing shall be satisfied by funds withdrawn by the Administrative Agent from the Term Facility Letter of Credit Account and
transferred to the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.04(b)(iii)) (and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to make such withdrawals and transfers). 

(h) [Reserved.] 
 (i)
Obligations Absolute. The joint and several obligation of the Borrower and the Applicant Party (if other than the Borrower) to reimburse L/C 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 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
applicable 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 Borrower’s obligations hereunder; provided that, in each case, payment by the
Issuing Bank shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, 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 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 such Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages,
claims in respect of which are hereby waived to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower or the Applicant Party that are determined by a court having jurisdiction to have been caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s
failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s refusal to issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross 

  
 52 








 
negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination and each refusal to issue a Letter
of Credit. 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
applicable 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. 
 (j) Disbursement
Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit of any Class. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the
Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Applicant Party (if other than the Borrower) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make a L/C Disbursement thereunder;
provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and, if applicable, the Revolving Facility Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

 (k) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any Revolving L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower or the Applicant
Party shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the
Borrower or the Applicant Party reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if such L/C Disbursement is not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Applicant Party when due pursuant
to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply; provided, further, that any L/C Disbursement that is reimbursed after the date such L/C Disbursement is required to be reimbursed under paragraph (e) of
this Section, (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and (C) Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of
the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving
Facility Lender to the extent of such payment. 
 (l) Replacement or Resignation of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced
at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign as Issuing Bank hereunder at any time following the Maturity Date or, to the extent
an Issuing Bank in respect of R/C Letters of Credit, the Maturity Date of the Revolving Facility Commitment held by it, upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement or resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued 

  
 53 








 
for the account of the replaced or retiring Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or resignation, (i) the successor Issuing
Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer
to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement or resignation of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced or retired Issuing Bank shall
remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of such 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. 
 (m) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the third Business Day, in each
case, following the date on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent (or, if the maturity of the Revolving Facility Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure representing greater than
50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the
Revolving Facility Lenders, an amount in Dollars in cash equal to the Revolving L/C Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon;. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the
extent required by Section 2.11(b). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.11(b) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower
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 (i) for so long as an Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent and(ii) at any other time, the Borrower, in each case, in Permitted Investments and at the risk and expense of
the Borrower, 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 each Issuing Bank for Revolving
L/C Disbursements for which such Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure at such time or, if the
maturity of the Revolving Facility Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy other
obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower 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 Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the
extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing. 

  
 54 








 (n) Additional Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the
Administrative Agent designate up to three Lenders (in addition to the Issuing Banks referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) in the definition of “Issuing Bank”) that agree (in their sole discretion) to act in such capacity
and are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as Issuing Banks, but only with respect to R/C Letters of Credit. Each such additional Issuing Bank shall execute a counterpart of this Agreement upon the approval of the Administrative
Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall thereafter be an Issuing Bank hereunder for all purposes. To the extent that any additional Issuing Bank becomes a party to this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, in
consultation with all Issuing Banks, shall amend and replace Schedule 2.05(a) hereto accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.08 (it being understood that no consent of the Lenders or the Borrower
shall be required to amend and replace such schedule). 
 (o) Reporting. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each
Issuing Bank shall (i) provide to the Administrative Agent copies of any notice received from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05(b) no later than the next Business Day after receipt thereof and (ii) report in writing to the
Administrative Agent (A) 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 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), and the Issuing Bank shall be permitted to
issue, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit if the Administrative Agent shall not have advised the Issuing Bank that such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension could not be in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement,
(B) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any L/C Disbursement, the date of such L/C Disbursement and the amount of such L/C Disbursement and (C) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent
shall reasonably request, including but not limited to prompt verification of such information as may be requested by the Administrative Agent. 

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
by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts
so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City, and designated by the Borrower in the Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the
reimbursement of a L/C Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank. 

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will
not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with


  
 55 








 
paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of
the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative
Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. 
 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 Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type, or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect
Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The 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. 
 (b) To make an
election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the 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 Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a
written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 
 (c) Each telephonic 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)
whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing
is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election. 

  
 56 








 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period,
then the 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 Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender to which such Interest Election Request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) If the 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 be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing
(i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

SECTION 2.08 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Facility Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. The Term Loan Commitments shall
terminate on the Business Day that is two (2) Business Days following the Final Order Entry Date. 
 (b) The Borrower may at any time
terminate, or from time to time, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice, reduce, the Commitments under the Revolving Facility or the Term Loan Facility; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments under either Facility
shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1 million and not less than $5 million (or, if less, the remaining amount of any Revolving Facility Commitments), and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Facility Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Revolving Facility Credit Facility Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments, or a
Borrowing Base Deficiency would exist. 
 (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the
Revolving Facility Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following
receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the
Revolving Facility Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case 

  
 57 








 
such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of
the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments under such Facility, except as provided in Section 2.22. 

SECTION 2.09 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Facility Lender
the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Facility Loan to the Borrower on the Maturity Date, and (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan of such Lender as
provided in Section 2.10(d). 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing
the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, 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 Facility
and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) any amount received by
such Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (d) The entries made in the
accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall 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 the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including
after assignment pursuant to Section 11.04) be represented by one or more Notes. 
 SECTION 2.10 Repayment of Term Loans and
Revolving Facility Loans. 
 (a) [Reserved.] 

(b) [Reserved.] 
 (c)
[Reserved.] 

  
 58 








 (d) To the extent not previously paid all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Maturity
Date. 
 (e) [Reserved.] 
 (f)
Any Lender holding Term Loans may elect, on not less than two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent with respect to any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.11(c), (d) or (e), not to have
such prepayment applied to such Lender’s Term Loans, in which case, the full amount not so applied shall first be re-offered to the non-declining Term Loan Lenders on a pro rata basis, with any amounts declined by such Term Loan Lenders being
retained by the Borrower. 
 (g) Prior to any repayment of any Borrowing under any Facility hereunder, the Borrower shall select the
Borrowing or Borrowings under the applicable Facility to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such selection not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing,
one Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, three (3) Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a Borrowing (x) in the case of a
Revolving Facility, shall be applied to the Revolving Facility Loans included in the repaid Borrowing such that each Revolving Facility Lender receives its ratable share of such repayment (based upon the respective Revolving Facility Credit
Exposures of the applicable Class of the Revolving Facility Lenders at the time of such repayment) and (y) in all other cases, shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. Repayments of Borrowings shall be accompanied
by accrued interest on the amount repaid. 
 SECTION 2.11 Optional and Mandatory Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty (but subject to Section 2.16), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding, subject to prior notice in accordance
with Section 2.10(g). 
 (b) In the event and on such occasion that the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeds the Line Cap, the
Borrower under the Revolving Facility shall prepay Revolving Facility Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(m)) made to the Borrower,
in an aggregate amount equal to the amount by which the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeds the Line Cap. 
 (c) Following the
Revolving Facility Effective Date to, subject to Section 2.10(f), within three (3) Business Days of receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Net Cash Proceeds (including the Fair Market Value of noncash
proceeds) of any Asset Disposition or Casualty and Condemnation Award in respect of the sale or other disposition of Revolving Facility Collateral, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay the Loans and,
unless the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 

  
 59 








 
are at the time satisfied and a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate to such effect, to Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Exposure
in the following order: first to the ratable prepayment of the outstanding Revolving Facility Loans until all such Loans have been prepaid in full, second to Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Exposure (if required) and third
to the ratable prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans until all such Loans have been prepaid in full. 
 (d) Subject to
Section 2.10(f), within three (3) Business Days after the day of receipt by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $10,000,000 (including the Fair Market Value of noncash proceeds) of any
Asset Disposition or Casualty and Condemnation Award that results from the sale or other disposition of, or payment with respect to, any Term Facility Collateral, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess
of $10,000,000 to prepay the Loans and to Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Exposure in the following order: first to the ratable prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans until all such Term Loans have been prepaid in full, second
to the ratable prepayment of the outstanding Revolving Facility Loans until all such Revolving Facility Loans have been prepaid in full, and third, unless the conditions set forth Section 4.02 are at the time satisfied and a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall be defined to the Administrative Agent a certificate to such effect, to Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Exposure (if required); provided that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds that may be
retained by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of this provision of this clause (d) shall not exceed $30,000,000 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as a result of Asset Dispositions or Casualty or Condemnation Awards
that generate Net Cash Proceeds of $10,000,000 or less). 
 (e) [Reserved.] 

(f) Within three (3) Business Days after the Revolving Facility Effective Date, the Borrower shall ratably prepay the Term Loans in an
amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the aggregate amount of Revolving Facility Commitments as of the Revolving Facility Effective Date over (y) $100,000,000. 

SECTION 2.12 Fees.

such Lender shall be terminated). 
 All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of
360 days. For the purpose of calculating any Lender’s Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall begin to accrue 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, a fee (a “R/C L/C Participation Fee”) on such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the daily aggregate Revolving L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to
unreimbursed Revolving L/C Disbursements), during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Effective Date or ending with the Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments shall be terminated) at the rate

Facility Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Bonding Facility Letter of Credit to and including the termination of such Bonding Facility Letter of Credit, computed at a rate
equal to 0.25% (or such other percentage to be mutually agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank) per annum of the daily average stated amount of such Bonding Facility Letter of Credit), plus (y) in connection with the issuance,
amendment or transfer of any such Bonding Facility Letter of Credit or any Bonding L/C Disbursement thereunder, such Issuing Bank’s customary documentary and processing charges (collectively, “Bonding Issuing Bank Fees”). All
Bonding Issuing Bank Fees that are payable on a per annum basis shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. 

(d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter
(the “Administrative Agent Fees”). 
 (e) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each
Revolving Facility Lender, on the Effective Date, an upfront fee (the “R/C Upfront Fee”) equal to a percentage per annum to be agreed by the Borrower and the Revolving Facility Lenders of such Lender’s Revolving Facility
Commitments on the Revolving Facility Effective Date, such fee to be earned and due and payable on the Revolving Facility Effective Date. 

  
 61 








 (f) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Term Loan Lender,
an upfront fee (the “Term Upfront Fee”) (which may take the form of original issue discount) equal to 5.00% of the aggregate principal amount the Term Loans funded hereunder, which shall be earned, due and payable on the date of
each Term Loan Borrowing and calculated by multiplying the Term Upfront Fee by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans funded by such Term Loan Lender on the on the date of each Term Loan Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no applicable
original issue discount shall reduce the amount of Obligations with respect to the Term Loans owing hereunder. 
 (g) If (i) the first
Term Loan Borrowing is made but (ii) the Term Loan Commitments are terminated (including as a result of the occurrence of the Maturity Date) prior to the making of the second Term Loan Borrowing, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Term Loan Lender, not later than one Business Day following the date of such termination, a commitment termination fee in an amount equal to the product of (x) 1.25% multiplied by (y) the difference between
(i) the aggregate amount of the Term Loan Commitments as of the Effective Date minus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the first Term Loan Borrowing (the “Term Loan Termination Fee”). 

(h) The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay to the Term L/C Issuing Bank, for its own account, (x) ten (10) Business Days
after the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a fronting fee in respect of each Term Facility Letter of Credit issued by
such Issuing Bank for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Term Facility Letter of Credit to and including the termination of such Term Facility Letter of Credit, computed at a rate equal to 0.25% (or such other percentage to
be mutually agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank) per annum of the daily average stated amount of such Term Facility Letter of Credit), plus (y) in connection with the issuance, amendment or transfer of any such Term Facility
Letter of Credit or any Term L/C Disbursement thereunder, such Issuing Bank’s customary documentary and processing charges (collectively, “Term Issuing Bank Fees”). All Term Issuing Bank Fees that are payable on a per annum
basis shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. 
 (i) All Fees shall be paid on the dates
due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that R/C Issuing Bank Fees, Term Issuing Bank Fees and Bonding Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the
applicable Issuing Banks. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances. 
 SECTION 2.13 Interest. 

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 

  
 62 








 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO
Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal
of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at
a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2% plus
the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that, should the occurrence of any particular Event of Default be subsequently waived, the rate established by this paragraph (c) shall apply
only to that period prior to such waiver. 
 (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment
Date for such Loan, (ii) in the case of Revolving Facility Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments and (iii) in the case of the Term Loans, on the Maturity Date; 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 Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Facility 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) All interest hereunder shall be computed on
the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Base 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). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative
Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the
commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 

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

  
 63 








 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy
as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the 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 shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if
any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing or, if requested by the Borrower, shall be made as a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the Required Revolving Facility Lenders or the
Required Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, shall agree adequately reflects the costs to the Revolving Facility Lenders or the Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, of making the Loans comprising such Borrowing. 

SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or
for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or Issuing Bank; 
 (ii) subject any Lender or Issuing Bank to any Tax
of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Loan Document, or any Loan made or to be made by such Lender, or any participation in any Letter of Credit, or the issuance by the Issuing Bank of any Letter of Credit, or the performance by such Lender or
the Issuing Bank of its obligations under any Loan Document, or change the basis of Tax applicable to payments to any Lender or the LC Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.17 and any
tax on net income or profits or overall gross receipts, including but not limited to any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank); or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this
Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing
or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as
applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

  
 64 








 (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 such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing
Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower (in the case of a Loan) or the Borrower (in the case of a Letter of Credit) shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or
its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable,
the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Promptly after any Lender or any
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 Borrower 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 such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an 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 applicable, notifies the Borrower 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) Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Section, no Lender shall demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction pursuant to this Section if it shall not at the time be the general policy and practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances
under comparable provisions of other credit agreements. 
 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 other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto 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 Borrower 

  
 65 








 
pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event (other than repayments of Loans made pursuant to Section 2.20), the 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 be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which 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 a Eurocurrency Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such
period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting
forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (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 under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction for any Taxes; provided that, if a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or another applicable withholding agent shall be required to deduct any Tax from any such payment, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax or
Other Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions have been made (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) any Agent,
Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and
(iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(c) Each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Agents, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes payable by such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and
any Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Loan Party by a Lender or an Issuing Bank, or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive 

  
 66 








 
absent manifest error. If a Loan Party determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification payments have been
made under this Section 2.17(c), the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender (as applicable) shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Loan Party in challenging such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, at the Loan Party’s
expense, if so requested by the Loan Party in writing; provided that nothing in this Section 2.17(c) shall obligate the Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender to take any action, in its reasonable judgment, would be materially
disadvantageous to such Person. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a
Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (or other applicable withholding agent), provide the applicable withholding agent with any documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent
certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Taxes with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in
circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 2.17(e)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the applicable withholding agent updated or
other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by such applicable withholding agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Taxes with respect to any
payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document) or promptly notify the applicable withholding agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion,
execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would
subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

Without limiting the foregoing: 

(i) Each U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable withholding agent) on or
before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. 

(ii) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable withholding agent) on
or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the applicable withholding agent) whichever of the following is applicable: 

(A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms)
claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Code, 

  
 67 








 (B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms), 
 (C) in the case of a Foreign Lender that is not a bank described in
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that is entitled to claim the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates
substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1, Exhibit F-2, Exhibit F-3 or Exhibit F-4 (any such certificate, a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly completed and duly
signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) certifying such Foreign Lender’s non-U.S. status, 

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or a
participating Lender), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required
information (or any successor forms) from each direct or indirect beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.17(e) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a
partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more of its direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such
direct or indirect partners), and/or 
 (E) two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by
applicable U.S. federal income tax laws (including the Treasury Regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, United States federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents. 

(iii) 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 requirements of those Code Sections (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as 

  
 68 








 
applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable withholding agent) at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or
times reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the
applicable withholding agent as may be necessary (as determined by the applicable withholding agent) (A) for the applicable withholding agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and (B) to determine whether such Lender has or has
not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.17(e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such
Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. 
 (f) If an Agent or a Lender determines, in good faith and in its sole discretion, that it has
received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to
such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all
out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Agent or Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the
relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any
penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be
construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
paragraph (f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay amounts to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (f) to the extent such payment would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable
net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund had never been imposed. 

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 2.17, include without limitation any
Issuing Bank. 
 SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees
or reimbursement of L/C 

  
 69 








 
Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without
condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by each Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable Issuing
Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.05 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for
the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder 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 hereunder of (i) principal or interest in respect of any Loan, (ii) reimbursement obligations with respect
to any Letter of Credit or (iii) any other amount due hereunder or under another Loan Document shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time
required if such Administrative 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 Administrative
Agent to make such payment. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the
Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Borrower
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 L/C Disbursements then due from the Borrower
hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due to such parties. 

(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 Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans and
participations in L/C Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender under the applicable Facility, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations
in the Term Loans and Revolving Facility Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements 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 Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements; 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 

  
 70 








 
extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the 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 or participations in L/C Disbursements to any assignee or participant,
other than to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply). The 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 the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact
made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, at (i) the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by
it pursuant to Section 2.04, 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the 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 reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as
applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable
costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

  
 71 








 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the 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 is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower 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 11.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, 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 L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
amounts payable to it under the Loan Documents, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (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. Nothing in this Section 2.19 shall be
deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) If any Lender (such Lender,
a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 11.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to
which the Required Lenders (or, if applicable, the Required Revolving Facility Lenders or the Required Term Loan Lenders) shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such
Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent,
provided that (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase
the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and
the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 11.04. 
 SECTION 2.20 Cash Management. (a) Within 45 days after
the Revolving Facility Effective Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may specify in its sole discretion), and at all times thereafter, the Loan Parties shall enter into and maintain blocked account agreements (each, a
“Blocked Account Agreement”), reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, with respect to each Deposit Account into which payments in respect of Accounts of the Loan
Parties are remitted (each such Deposit Account, a “Collection Account”). Except as expressly provided herein, and subject to the occurrence of the Revolving Facility Effective Date, no deposits from any other source will be made to
the Collection Accounts. 

  
 72 








 (b) Subject to the occurrence of the Revolving Facility Effective Date, each Blocked Account
Agreement shall require the ACH or wire transfer on each Business Day of all ledger or available, as applicable, cash receipts held in the applicable Collection Account to a concentration account maintained by the Administrative Agent (an
“Agent Sweep Account”). 
 (c) Subject to the occurrence of the Revolving Facility Effective Date, if (i) any cash or
Permitted Investments owned by a Loan Party are deposited in any account (other than an Excluded Account), or held or invested in any manner (other than (w) in a Collection Account that is subject to the Blocked Account Agreement, (x) in a
Collection Account that is maintained with the Administrative Agent, (y) a Deposit Account which is swept daily to a Collection Account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or maintained with the Administrative Agent) or (z) in the case
of Permitted Investments, in a securities account subject to a control agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), or (ii) at any time, a Collection Account shall cease to be subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or
maintained with the Administrative Agent, the applicable Loan Party shall immediately furnish the Administrative Agent with written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent may require such Loan Party to close such account and have any such funds
transferred to a Collection Account which is subject to a Blocked Account Agreement or maintained with the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) A
Loan Party may close any Deposit Account or a Collection Account, maintain existing Deposit Accounts or Collection Accounts and/or open new Deposit Accounts or Collection Accounts, subject to the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of
appropriate Blocked Account Agreements with respect to each Collection Account consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.20(d) and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The applicable Loan Party shall furnish the
Administrative Agent with prior written notice of its intention to open or close a Collection Account. 
 (e) Each Agent Sweep Account shall
at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) it has no right of withdrawal from the Agent Sweep Account, (ii) the funds on deposit in an Agent
Sweep Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations, and (iii) the funds on deposit in an Agent Sweep Account shall be applied as provided in Section 2.20(f) of this Agreement. In the
event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.20(e), a Loan Party receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any such proceeds or collections, such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Loan Party for the
Administrative Agent, shall not be commingled with any of such Loan Party’s other funds or deposited in any account of such Loan Party and shall promptly be deposited into a Collection Account or dealt with in such other fashion as such Loan
Party may be instructed by the Administrative Agent. 
 (f) Any amounts received in an Agent Sweep Account shall be applied at the close of
business each day to the payment (without a corresponding reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments) of all of the outstanding Revolving Loans (whether then due or not) and to the payment of all of the other Obligations under the Loan Documents of
the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors then due and payable (it being understood that any payments on the outstanding Revolving Loans under this Section 2.20(f) shall not include and the Borrower shall not incur any breakage costs under
Section 2.16). 

  
 73 








 (g) Any amounts remaining in an Agent Sweep Account after application of amounts received in such
Agent Sweep Account as set forth in subsection (h) below, shall be remitted to the primary Collection Account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. 

(h) The following shall apply to deposits and payments under and pursuant to this Agreement: 

(i) funds shall be deemed to have been deposited to an Agent Sweep Account on the Business Day on which deposited,
provided that such deposit is available to the Administrative Agent by 2:00 p.m. on that Business Day (except that if the Obligations are being paid in full, by 2:00 p.m. on that Business Day); 

(ii) funds paid to the Administrative Agent, other than by deposit to an Agent Sweep Account, shall be deemed to have been
received on the Business Day when they are good and collected funds, provided that such payment is available to the Administrative Agent by 2:00 p.m. on that Business Day (except that if the Obligations are being paid in full, by 2:00 p.m. on that
Business Day); and 
 (iii) if a deposit to an Agent Sweep Account or payment is not available to the Administrative Agent
until after 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day, such deposit or payment shall be deemed to have been made at 9:00 a.m. on the then next Business Day. 

SECTION 2.21 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental
Authority has asserted after the Effective Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent,
any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise
to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all Eurocurrency Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last
day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion,
the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 

  
 74 








 SECTION 2.22 Defaulting Lender. 

(a) Cash Collateral Call. If any Revolving Facility Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, if any R/C
Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, each Issuing Bank may, by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such R/C Letter
of Credit Issuing Bank in respect of such R/C Letter of Credit in amount equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuing Bank, in its sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Class. Upon termination of any R/C Letter of Credit, the Issuing Banks shall
return any such Cash Collateral and terminate such other arrangements relating to such R/C Letter of Credit. 
 (b) Right to Give
Drawdown Notices. In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Revolving Facility Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, each of the Issuing Bank is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable
and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Administrative Agent, notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an outstanding L/C Disbursement
and/or (ii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower, in each case in respect of outstanding R/C Letters of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in
respect of such R/C Letter of Credit. 
 (c) Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank agrees in writing in
their reasonable discretion that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender no longer falls under the definition of “Defaulting Lender” the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in
such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Issuing Banks shall return any Cash Collateral held in respect of
such Non-Defaulting Lender’s obligations. If any Defaulting Lender is replaced pursuant to Section 2.19(b), the Issuing Banks shall return any Cash Collateral held in respect of such replaced Defaulting Lender. 

(d) Assignment of Commitments. If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender may be replaced as provided in
Section 2.19; and 
 (e) Termination of Commitments. If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the commitments of such
Defaulting Lender may be reduced or terminated as provided in Section 2.08 on a non-ratable basis. 
 (f) Reallocations of
Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Revolving L/C Exposures shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the
Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions 

  
 75 








 
are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting
Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any
claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 SECTION
2.23 Future ABL Facility. 
 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, after the Effective Date, the Borrower shall
have the right to request on a single occasion, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, the addition to this Agreement of an asset based revolving credit facility having aggregate commitments not to exceed $200,000,000 (such commitments,
“Revolving Facility Commitments” and such facility, a “Future ABL Facility”) from one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities willing to provide such Revolving Facility Commitments in their own
discretion; provided, that the Future ABL Facility shall have the same maturity date as the Term Facility and shall including a borrowing base that is based on eligible receivables, and the eligibility criteria and borrowing base calculations
with respect thereto (including in respect of advance rates and reserves) shall be as set forth on Schedule 2.23. Following the Future ABL Facility Effective Date, the lien priorities with respect to the Revolving Facility Collateral and the
Term Facility Collateral shall be as set forth in the Security and Intercreditor Agreement and in any order of the Bankruptcy Court entered in connection therewith (provided that the priorities set forth in any such order shall be consistent with
those set forth in the Security and Intercreditor Agreement). The Future ABL Facility shall include such other customary terms and conditions as are agreed by the providers of the Revolving Facility Commitments (the “Revolving Facility
Lenders”), the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the effectiveness of thereof shall be subject to entry of the Future ABL Order and customary conditions precedent (including completion by the Administrative Agent (or its designee)
of a customary field exam), which may include the receipt of an order of the Bankruptcy Court approving such Future ABL Facility (to the extent not approved by the Interim Order or Final Order, as applicable) and which shall include an amendment to
this Agreement and the other applicable Loan Documents, in accordance with Section 2.23(b), and execution of a customary joinder agreement to the Security and Intercreditor Agreement by the Revolving Facility Agent (in its capacity as such). If
agreed by the Revolving Facility Lenders, the Future ABL Facility may include a subfacility for letters of credit. 
 (b) In connection with
the effectiveness of a Future ABL Facility (the date of such effectiveness, the “Revolving Facility Effective Date”), this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended (the “Future ABL Amendment”) with
the consent of the Borrower, the Revolving Facility Lenders and the Administrative Agent (but no other Lenders) to permit the inclusion of the Future ABL Facility under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including to provide for customary
voting rights (including in respect of provisions with respect to the borrowing base and borrowing base reporting, cash management systems and ABL related inspection rights and field exams, as to which the Term Loan Lenders shall not have consent
rights with respect to amendments and waivers), rights with respect to Collateral (including the 

  
 76 








 
lien priorities contemplated hereunder), the creation of (and reserves relating to) “designated hedging obligations”, such changes to the asset sale and mandatory prepayments provisions
of this Agreement to the extent relating to assets included in the borrowing base as would be customary for an asset based revolving credit facility, and any other amendments related to any of the foregoing that are not adverse in any material
respect to the interests of the Term Loan Lenders. This section shall supersede anything to the contrary in Section 11.08.

SECTION 2.26 [Reserved]. 

SECTION 2.27 Priority and Liens.

 SECTION 3.07 Title to Properties; Possession Under Leases. 

(a) Each of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to, or valid and subsisting leasehold interests in, or
easements or other limited property interests in all Mortgaged Properties, subject solely to Permitted Real Estate Encumbrances and except where the failure to have such title or interest would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in

(c) As of the Effective Date, except as set forth on Schedule 3.07(c) to this Agreement, none of the Borrower or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries has received written or, to the knowledge of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, other notice of claims that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary has mined any Coal that it did not have the right to mine on any Mortgaged
Property or mined any Coal or produced any oil, natural gas or other hydrocarbons in such a manner as to give rise to any claims for loss, waste or trespass on any Mortgaged Property, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower and the Restricted
Subsidiaries, no facts exist upon which such a claim could be based other than claims that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Loan Parties on the Effective

Adverse Effect or except as set forth on Schedule 3.07(d) to this

Borrower, other notice of any pending or contemplated condemnation proceeding affecting any of the Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in lieu of condemnation that remains unresolved as of the Effective Date, except where such
condemnation proceeding would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, except as set forth on Schedule 3.07(e) to this Agreement or the Cases. 

(f) None of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is obligated on the Effective Date under any right of first refusal, preferential
right to purchase, option or other contractual right to sell, assign or otherwise dispose of any Mortgaged Property or any interest therein, except as permitted under Section 6.03, 6.04 or 6.05 and other than customary buy-back provisions
following the termination of mining operations, satisfaction of reclamation obligations and release of applicable Mining Permits with respect to a Mortgaged Property, except where such right of first refusal, preferential right to purchase, option
or other contractual right would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or except as set forth on Schedule 3.07(f) to this Agreement. 

(g) Schedule 3.07(g) to this Agreement sets forth as of the Effective Date the name and jurisdiction of incorporation, formation
or organization of each Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower and, as to each such Restricted Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Equity Interests owned by the Borrower or by any such Restricted Subsidiary, indicating the ownership thereof.

(other than stock options and other rights to receive Equity Interests of the Borrower granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Equity Interests of the Borrower or any of the Restricted
Subsidiaries, except where such subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect or except as set forth on
Schedule 3.07(h) to this Agreement.

“Information”) concerning the Borrower, the Restricted Subsidiaries, the Transactions and any other transactions contemplated hereby prepared by or on behalf of the foregoing or their representatives (excluding any reserve reports)

liability or obligation of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries under any Environmental Laws, and no Hazardous Material has been generated, owned or controlled by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries and disposed of, or transported to or

Subsidiaries, there are no agreements in effect as of the Effective Date pursuant to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries has expressly assumed or undertaken responsibility for any liability or obligation of any other Person arising under

present or located on the Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s Real Property. For purpose of Section 8.01(a), each of the representations and warranties contained in clauses (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) of this Section 3.15 that
are qualified by the knowledge of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries shall be deemed not to be so qualified. 
 SECTION 3.16 Security
Documents. 
 (a) Subject to and upon the entry of the Orders, the Orders and the Security and Intercreditor Agreement are effective to
create in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. When UCC financing statements in appropriate form are filed
in the offices specified in the Perfection Certificate, the Liens created by the Security and Intercreditor Agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) will constitute fully perfected Liens on, and security
interests in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral to the extent perfection can be obtained by filing UCC financing statements.

Mortgages are filed or recorded in the proper real estate filing or recording offices, the Liens created by the Mortgages in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) shall constitute fully perfected Liens on, and
security interests in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Mortgaged Property and, to the extent applicable, subject to Section 9-315 of the UCC, the proceeds thereof, in each case having the priority set forth in the
Orders other than with respect to the rights of a Person pursuant to Permitted Real Estate Encumbrances and Liens having priority by operation of law.

Material Real Property owned or leased as of the Effective Date.

 REAL
PROPERTY LEASES 
 SECTION 7.01 Special Rights with Respect to Real Property Leases. 

(a) No Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, reject or
otherwise terminate (including, without limitation, as a result of the expiration of the assumption period provided for in Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code to the extent applicable) (x) a Material Lease or (y) during the
continuance of an Event of Default, a Real Property Lease, in each case, without first providing 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (unless such notice provision is waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion) during which time the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to find an acceptable (in the Administrative Agent’s good faith and reasonable discretion) replacement lessee (which may include the Administrative Agent or its
Affiliates) to whom such lease may be assigned. If a prospective assignee is not found within such 30-day notice period, the Loan Party may proceed to reject such lease If such a prospective assignee is timely found, the Loan Parties shall
(i) not seek to reject such lease, (ii) promptly withdraw any previously filed rejection motion, (iii) promptly file a motion seeking expedited relief and a hearing on the earliest court date available for purposes of assuming such
lease and assigning it to such prospective assignee and (iv) cure any defaults that have occurred and are continuing under such lease unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree that any such cure obligation is overly burdensome on
the cash position of the Debtors with such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld; provided that this Section 7.01(a) shall not apply to Real Property Leases that are rejected (A) as contemplated in the Agreed Business Plan or
(B) on the effective date of an Acceptable Reorganization Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that on or prior to the 30th day prior to the Automatic Rejection Date, the Loan Parties shall have delivered (and hereby
agree to deliver) written notice to the Administrative Agent of each outstanding Real Property Lease that they intend to reject (including, without limitation, through automatic rejection on the Automatic Rejection Date, to the extent applicable)
from and after the date of such notice (or, if applicable, notice that the Loan Parties will seek to extend the Automatic Rejection Date as provided in Section 365(d)(4) of the Bankruptcy Code); provided that if the Loan Parties fail to
deliver any such notice to the Administrative Agent prior to such date with respect to any such Real Property Lease (or a notice indicating that no such Real Property Leases shall be rejected), the Loan Parties shall be deemed, for all purposes
hereunder, to have delivered notice to the Administrative Agent as of such date that it intends to reject all outstanding Real Property Leases. 

  
 117 








 (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may
exercise any Debtor’s rights pursuant to section 365(f) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to any Real Property Lease or group of Real Property Leases and, subject to the Bankruptcy Court’s approval after notice and hearing, assign any
such Real Property Lease in accordance with section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code notwithstanding any language to the contrary in any of the applicable lease documents or executory contracts. In connection with the exercise of such rights, the
Administrative Agent may (x) find an acceptable (in the Administrative Agent’s good faith and reasonable discretion) replacement lessee (which may include the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates) to whom a Real Property Lease may be
assigned, (y) hold, and manage all aspects of, an auction or other bidding process to find such reasonably acceptable replacement lessee, and (z) in connection with any such auction, agree, on behalf of the Loan Parties and subject to
Bankruptcy Court approval, to a break-up fee or to reimburse fees and expenses of any stalking horse bidder up to an amount not to exceed 3.00% of the purchase price of such Real Property Lease and may make any such payments on behalf of such Loan
Party and any amount used by the Administrative Agent to make such payments shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and subject to satisfaction of the conditions in Section 4.02, be deemed a Revolving Credit
Borrowing hereunder. Upon receipt of notice that the Administrative Agent elects to exercise its rights under this Section 7.01(b), the Loan Parties shall promptly file a motion seeking expedited relief and a hearing on the earliest court date
available for purposes of assuming such Real Property Lease and assigning it to such assignee and cure any defaults that have occurred and are continuing under such Real Property Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.01(b) shall
not apply to Real Property Leases that are rejected on the effective date of an Acceptable Reorganization Plan. 
 (c) If an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to direct any Debtor that is a lessee under a Real Property Lease to assign such Real Property Lease to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured
Parties, as collateral for the Obligations and to direct such Debtor lessee to assume such Real Property Lease to the extent assumption is required under the Bankruptcy Code as a prerequisite to such assignment. Upon receipt of notice that the
Administrative Agent elects to exercise its rights under this Section 7.01(c), the Loan Parties shall (i) promptly file a motion seeking expedited relief and a hearing on the earliest court date available for purposes of, if necessary,
assuming such Real Property Lease and assigning it to the Administrative Agent and (ii) cure any defaults that have occurred and are continuing under such Real Property Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.01(c) shall not
apply to Real Property Leases that are rejected on the effective date of an Acceptable Reorganization Plan. 
 (d) Any order or the
Bankruptcy Court approving the assumption (but not the assignment) of any Real Property Lease shall specifically provide that the applicable Debtor shall be authorized to assign such Real Property Lease pursuant to section 365(f) of the Bankruptcy
Code subsequent to the date of such assumption designated by the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) No Loan Party shall, nor shall it permit any
of its Subsidiaries to, pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, sell or assign a Real Property Lease without first 

  
 118 








 
providing thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent (unless such notice provision is waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) or thereafter
until Bankruptcy Court approval of a sale or assignment, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be permitted to credit bid forgiveness of some or all of the outstanding Obligations in respect of the Term Facility (in an
amount equal to at least the consideration offered by any other party in respect of such assignment) as consideration in exchange for any such Real Property Lease. In connection with the exercise of any of the Administrative Agent’s rights
under Sections 7.01(b) and 7.01(c) to direct or compel a sale or assignment of any Real Property Lease, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall be permitted to credit bid forgiveness of a portion of the Indebtedness (in an
amount equal to at least the consideration offered by any other party in respect of such sale or assignment) outstanding under the Term Loans in exchange for such Real Property Lease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 7.01(e) shall
not apply to Real Property Leases that are sold or assigned as contemplated in the Agreed Business Plan. 
 If any Loan Party is required to
cure any monetary default under any Real Property Lease under this Section 7.01, or otherwise in connection with any assumption of such Real Property Lease pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code, and such monetary default is not cured
within five (5) Business Days of the receipt by such Loan Party of notice from the Administrative Agent under Section 7.01(a), (b) or (c) or any other notice from the Administrative Agent requesting the cure of such monetary
default, then the Administrative Agent may cure any such monetary default on behalf of such Loan Party and any such payments shall, at the election of the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and subject to satisfaction of the conditions in
Section 4.02, be deemed a Revolving Credit Borrowing hereunder.

principal of the Revolving Facility Loans, Term Loans, unreimbursed L/C Disbursements and amounts owing in respect of Other Secured Obligations, ratably among the Revolving Facility Lenders, Term Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Hedge Banks and the
Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Banks, to Cash Collateralize (to the extent not
already Cash Collateralized) Revolving L/C Exposures, Bonding L/C Exposures and Term Loan L/C Exposures; and 

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as
otherwise required by Law;  
 provided, that the application to the Obligations pursuant to this Section 8.02 of amounts received in
respect of Collateral that is Revolving Facility Collateral and in respect of Collateral that is Term Facility Collateral is expressly subject to the priorities set forth in Article 10 of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement and in the Interim

 (b) Neither the Agents nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable as such for
any action taken or omitted by any of them except for its or his own gross negligence or willful misconduct, or be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation herein or the contents of any document delivered in connection herewith, or
be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements contained in any Loan Document. The Agents shall not be
responsible to the Lenders for the due execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or other instruments or agreements. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or
refraining from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such instructions and any action or inaction pursuant thereto shall be binding on all the Lenders.
Each Agent shall, in the absence of knowledge to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any instrument or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons. Neither the
Agents nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other party hereto or to any Loan Document on account of the failure, delay in performance or

 126 








 
shall make any determination to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document in good faith, such Agent shall have no liability in respect of such determination to any person.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied
covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into the Loan Documents or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Each Lender recognizes and agrees the Lead Arranger shall have no duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and shall have no functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities for acting as such hereunder. 

SECTION 9.03 Resignation by the Agents. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided below, any Agent
may, by written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders resign at any time with respect to (x) each of the Facilities, (y) the Term Facility, but not the Revolving Facility or (z) the Revolving Facility but not the Term Facility. Upon
any such resignation, the Required Lenders (or in the case of a resignation (x) in respect of the Term Facility, but not the Revolving Facility, the Required Term Loan Lenders, or (y) in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, but not
the Term Facility, the Required Revolving Facility Lenders) shall have the right to appoint a successor with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required
Lenders (or the Required Term Loan Lenders or the Required Revolving Facility Lenders, if applicable) and approved by the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation,
then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the applicable Lenders with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York and an
office in London, England (or a bank having an Affiliate with such an office) having a combined capital and surplus that is not less than $500 million or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a

duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the Facilities as to which it has resigned. After the Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 11.05 shall continue in
effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent. 
 SECTION 9.04 Each
Agent in Its Individual Capacity. With respect to the Loans made by it hereunder, each Agent in its individual capacity and not as Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an
Agent, and the Agents and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or other Affiliates thereof as if it were not an Agent. 

SECTION 9.05 Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse the Agents, on demand, in the amount of its pro rata share
(based on its Commitments hereunder, or 

  
 127 








 
if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of its applicable outstanding Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements, as
applicable) of any reasonable expenses incurred by the Agents, including reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered, which shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower and (b) to indemnify and
hold harmless each Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it in its capacity as Agent or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Borrower; provided that no Lender shall be liable to an Agent for any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements determined by a final and non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents. The agreements in this Section 9.05 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 any Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The term “Lender” shall, to the extent such indemnification obligation arose prior to such party’s
resignation, replacement or assignment, for purposes of this Section 9.05, include any Issuing Bank. 
 SECTION 9.06 Lack of
Reliance on Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents and any Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents, any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make
its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

SECTION 9.07 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment
to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.17, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in
respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, 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 Internal Revenue Service 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 such 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). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be 

  
 128 








 
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 Section 9.07. The agreements in this Section 9.07 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 any Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 9.07, include any Issuing Bank. 

SECTION 9.08 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Lead Arranger shall not have any powers, duties
or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or a Issuing Bank hereunder.

notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation. Each Loan Party waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its
guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. 
 SECTION 10.02 Guarantee of Payment. Each Loan Party further agrees that its
guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Obligations
or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other person. 

SECTION 10.03 No Limitations, etc. 

(a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided for in Section 11.08 of the Security and
Intercreditor Agreement, the obligations of each Loan Party hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall
not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: 
 (i) the failure of
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; 

  
 129 








 (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from
any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Loan Party under this Agreement; 

(iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the exchange, substitution, release or any impairment of, any
security held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the Obligations; 
 (iv) any default, failure or delay,
willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; 
 (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner
or to any extent vary the risk of any Loan Party or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Party as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations); 

(vi) any illegality, lack of validity or enforceability of any Obligation; 

(vii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower, or any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any Obligation; 

(viii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that the Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, the
Collateral Agent, or any other corporation or person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein will prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; and 

(ix) any other circumstance (including without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any
representation by the Collateral Agent that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower or the Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety. 

Each Loan Party authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Obligations, to exchange,
waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or
obligors upon or in respect of the Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Loan Party hereunder. 

  
 130 








 (b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Party waives any defense based
on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other
than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales,
accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them
against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full in cash and discharged. To the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or
other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security. 
 SECTION 10.04
Reinstatement. Each Loan Party agrees that its guarantee 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 Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored
by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise. 

SECTION 10.05 Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Loan Party by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity,
by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Loan Party hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Collateral Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid
Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights of such Loan Party against the Borrower, or other Loan Party or any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of
subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article VI of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement. 

SECTION 10.06 Information. Each Loan Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition
and assets of the Borrower and each other Loan Party, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees
that none of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks

SECTION 11.03 Binding Effect, Effectiveness. 

This Agreement shall become binding (subject, however, to the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in Section 4.01) when
this Agreement shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Agents and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies thereof which, when taken together, bear the signature of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Issuing Bank, the Agents and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns; provided, however, this Agreement shall not become binding upon the Borrower
unless and to the extent approved by the Bankruptcy Court. 
 SECTION 11.04 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
registered assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than pursuant to a merger permitted by Section 6.04(a), the Borrower may not assign or


  
 133 








 
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the 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 any 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, each Issuing Bank, the Lenders, and to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) 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 Eligible 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 or delayed) of: 
 (A) with respect to assignments by Revolving Lenders of Revolving Facility Loans and Revolving
Facility Commitments, the Borrower (which consent shall be deemed given unless the Borrower shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received a written request for such consent),
provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Eligible Assignee; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent and, in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Facility Commitment, the Issuing Banks;
provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks, as applicable, shall be required for an assignment of (i) a Revolving Facility Commitment to an Eligible Assignee that is a Revolving Facility Lender immediately
prior to giving effect to such assignment or (ii) a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment. 

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the
entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is
delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5 million (in the case of the Revolving Facility) or $1 million (in case of the Term Facility), unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; 

  
 134 








 (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; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that no such recordation fee shall be due in connection with an assignment to an existing
Lender or Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender or an assignment by the Administrative Agent; 
 (D) the
assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire; and 
 (E)
no assignment shall be made to a Disqualified Institution without the consent of the Borrower. 
 For purposes of this
Section 11.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” shall have the following meaning: 
 “Approved
Fund” shall mean 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 and that is administered or managed by a Lender, an
Affiliate of a Lender or 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 Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender hereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 11.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 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. 

  
 135 








 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the
Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal and interest amounts of the
Loans and L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agents, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders
shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower, 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 Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and
recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the
information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(vi) No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or
(B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person. 

(vii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and the Lenders
acknowledge and agree that in no event shall the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as such) be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating
to any preclusions as to assignments to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to, in connection with its maintenance of the Register (or otherwise),
ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to any assignment or participation of Loans or Commitments, or any disclosure of confidential information, to any
Disqualified Institution. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, 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 

  
 136 








 
Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Agents, each Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument (oral or written) pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that
(x) 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 Section 11.04(a)(i) or clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv),
(v) or (vi) of the first proviso to Section 11.08(b) that affects such Participant and (y) no other agreement (oral or written) with respect to such Participant may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to
paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent, and subject to the same documentary requirements, as if it were a Lender and
had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section (subject to the requirements and limitations of such sections as if it were a Lender). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to
the benefits of Section 11.06 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 than the
applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the sale of the participation takes
place. 
 (iii) Each Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain at one of its
offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of its Participants, and the amount and terms of its participations, including specifying any such Participant’s entitlement to payments of principal and interest, and any
payments made, with respect to each such participation (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; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant
Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is
necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 

(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 

  
 137 








 
any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or
assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

 SECTION 11.05 Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Agents in connection with the
preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the Agents in connection with the syndication of the Commitments or the administration of this Agreement (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and initial and
ongoing Collateral examination to the extent incurred with the reasonable prior approval of the Borrower and the reasonable fees, disbursements and the charges for no more than one counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) or in
connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the Transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by the Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or
protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in connection with the Loans made or the Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Davis Polk &
Wardwell LLP (including any financial advisor thereto or retained thereby), (counsel for the Agents and the Lead Arranger), Holland and Hart (special mining counsel for the Agents and Lenders), Burns Figa & Will P.C., (special mining
counsel in Wyoming for the Agents and Lenders) and McGuire Woods LLP, (local Virginia counsel for the Agents and Lenders), and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any other
counsel, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents, the Lead Arranger, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (but no more than one outside counsel for any Lender). 

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, the Lead Arranger, each Issuing Bank, each Lender, the Existing Credit Agreement Agent, the
Existing Credit Agreement Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, directors, trustees, officers, employees, investment advisors and agents (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee
harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, litigation, investigations or proceedings and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted or brought against any Indemnitee
arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and
thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of any Letter of Credit or
(iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing or the Existing Credit Agreement, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not brought by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
or any other Person; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, 

  
 138 








 
litigation, investigations or proceedings or related expenses results primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment (any such Indemnitee and its Related Parties treated, for this purpose only, as a single Indemnitee). Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence,
the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, litigation, investigations or proceedings and related expenses, including reasonable counsel or
consultant fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (A) any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
or (B) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on or from any property or facility owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or by any predecessor of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, litigation, investigations or proceedings or related expenses result
from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. The provisions of this Section 11.05 shall remain
operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 11.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by
reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested. The Borrower agrees that in the event that any actions or proceedings are in effect or are threatened by or any Agent reasonably believes any
actions or proceedings may be brought by the Creditors’ Committee or any other party in interest attacking the legality, validity, enforceability of the obligations under the Loan Documents, the Liens arising Loan Documents at the time of the
consummation of any sale of the assets of the Loan Parties or at the time that Loan Parties propose to pay and satisfy the Obligations in full, such Agent may hold a reserve following the date of payment in full of the Obligations as cash collateral
for the expenses or claims expected to be incurred in connection with such actions or proceedings until the earlier of (x) such Agent’s receipt of a general release satisfactory in form and substance to such Agent, and (y) the entry
of a final non-appealable order determining the outcome of such litigation. 
 (c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Except as expressly provided in Section 11.05(a) with respect to Other Taxes, which shall not be duplicative with any amounts paid
pursuant to Section 2.17, this Section 11.05 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim. 

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Loan Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee by the
Loan Parties or their Affiliates, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or
instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (f) No Indemnitee
referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission
systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

  
 139 








 SECTION 11.06 Right of Set-off. Subject to the Orders and the final proviso of
Section 8.01, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary
against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall have
made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each Issuing Bank under this Section 11.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including
other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such Issuing Bank may have. 
 SECTION 11.07 Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE
OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND (TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE) THE BANKRUPTCY CODE.

 SECTION 11.08 Waivers; Amendment. 

(a) No failure or delay of the Agents, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any 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, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such person to any other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances. 

  
 140 








 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof
may be waived, amended or modified except (x) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, and (y) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant
to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto and the Collateral Agent and consented to by the Required Lenders (provided that amendments to the intercreditor provisions of the Security and Intercreditor
Agreement shall require the consent of the Loan Parties only to the extent provided therein; provided that any such amendment that adversely affects the Loan Parties shall require the consent of the Loan Parties); provided,
however, that amendments and waivers with respect to the Borrowing Base (or component definitions thereof) that would have the effect of increasing Availability shall require the approval of both (i) the Supermajority Revolving Facility
Lenders and (ii) the Required Term Loan Lenders; provided, further, that no such agreement shall:  

(i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan
or any L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (except as is expressly contemplated in clause (c) of the definition of “Maturity Date”); provided that any amendment to the

the adversely affected Facility (or, with respect to Bonding Facility Letters of Credit and the Bonding Accommodation Facility, the Bonding L/C Issuing Bank, or, with respect to the Term L/C Facility or Term Facility Letters of Credit, the Term L/C

increased (other than reductions in Reserves implemented by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) without the written consent of the Supermajority Revolving Facility Lenders, provided that any such amendment, waiver or
consent described in this clause (xii) shall be effective without the consent of any Lenders other than the Supermajority Revolving Facility Lenders; 

(i) provided, further, that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or
duties of the Administrative Agent an Issuing Bank hereunder or the Collateral Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, acting as such, at the effective date of
such agreement, as applicable and (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of one Class of Lenders (but not of any other Class of Lenders) shall be effective

 142 








 
bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 11.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 11.08 shall bind any assignee of such Lender.

respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification 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, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law. 
 (d) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be permitted, in connection with the Revolving Facility Effective Date, without the consent of any other Person to amend this Agreement

SECTION 11.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate,
together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for,
charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender or any Issuing Bank, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with
applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender or such Issuing
Bank on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation. 
 SECTION 11.10 Entire Agreement. This Agreement,
the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their
Affiliates with respect to the subject matter 

  
 143 








 
hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full
force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. To the extent that any provision herein is inconsistent with any term of the Orders, the Order shall control. 

SECTION 11.11 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 11.11. 

SECTION 11.12 Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document
should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 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 11.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original but
all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 11.03. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of
a manually signed original. 
 SECTION 11.14 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 are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.15 Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of
the Bankruptcy Court and, if the 

  
 144 








 
Bankruptcy Court does not have (or abstains from) jurisdiction, any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York County, and any appellate
court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than under any Security Document governed by a law other than the laws of the State of New York or with respect to
any Collateral subject thereto), 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 conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on
the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
against the Borrower or any Loan Party or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any
such court. 
 SECTION 11.16 Confidentiality. Each of the Lenders, each Issuing Bank and each of the Agents agrees that it shall
maintain in confidence any information relating to the Borrower and the other Loan Parties furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties (other than information that (a) has become generally available to the public
other than as a result of a disclosure by such party, (b) has been independently developed by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such Agent without violating this Section 11.16 or (c) was available to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such
Agent from a third party having, to such person’s knowledge, no obligations of confidentiality to the Borrower or any other Loan Party) and shall not reveal the same other than to its directors, trustees, officers, employees and advisors with a
need to know or to any person that approves or administers the Loans on behalf of such Lender (so long as each such person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 11.16), except (A) to the extent
necessary to comply with law or any legal or regulatory process (including any self-regulatory authority) or the requirements of any Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or of any securities exchange on which
securities of the disclosing party or any Affiliate of the disclosing party are listed or traded, (B) as part of normal reporting or review procedures to Governmental Authorities or the National Association of Insurance Commissioners,
(C) to its parent companies, Affiliates, auditors and its, and its Affiliates’, respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (so long as each such person shall have been instructed to keep
the same confidential in accordance with this Section 11.16), (D) in order to enforce its rights under any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (E) to any prospective assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this
Agreement (so long as such person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 11.16 or as 

  
 145 








 
shall be required to keep the same confidential pursuant to any letter or agreement with confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 11.16), (F) to any direct or
indirect contractual counterparty in any Swap Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 11.16 or as shall be required to keep the same confidential pursuant to any letter or agreement with confidentiality provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 11.16), (G) with the consent of the Borrower,
(H) to any nationally recognized rating agency in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender and (I) to other parties to this Agreement. 

SECTION 11.17 Citigroup Direct Website Communications. 

(a) Delivery. (i) Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will use all reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent all
information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and
other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (A) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, borrowing or other extension of credit (including any election of an
interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (B) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (C) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under
this Agreement or (D) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any borrowing or other extension of credit hereunder (all such non-excluded communications collectively, the
“Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com. Nothing in this Section 11.17 shall prejudice the
right of the Agents, the Lead Arranger or any Lender or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(ii) The Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next
sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform (as defined below) shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the
Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and
(B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. 
 (b) Posting. Each
Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).


  
 146 








 (c) The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties
(as defined below) do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or
statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the
Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents advisors or representatives (collectively, “Agent Parties”) have
any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or
otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications through the internet, except to the extent the liability of any Agent Party is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 SECTION 11.18
Release of Liens and Guarantees. In the event that any Loan Party conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of any of its assets (including any Equity Interests) to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a
Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by Section 6.05, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall promptly (and the Lenders 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 Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to evidence the release of any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such assets, and, in the case of a disposition of the Equity Interests
of any Subsidiary Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05 and as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor would cease to be a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary, evidence the termination of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations
under the Guarantee and under the Security and Intercreditor Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree to take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to
evidence the termination of the Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents when all the Obligations are paid in full and discharged, all Letters of Credit and Commitments are terminated and all Other Secured Obligations are cash
collateralized or backstopped in a manner acceptable to the applicable Lenders (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted). Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating
to any such Equity Interests, asset or subsidiary of the Borrower shall no longer be deemed to be made once such Equity Interests or asset is so conveyed, sold, leased, assigned, transferred or disposed of. Any requirement for the Collateral Agent
to take such action to evidence the releases of any Liens as set forth above shall be subject to the Collateral Agent’s receipt of a certification by the Borrower and applicable Loan Party stating that such transaction is in compliance with the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 11.19 U.S. Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Loan Party that
pursuant to the requirements of the U.S. Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and other information that will allow the
Lenders to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the U.S. Patriot Act. 

  
 147 








 SECTION 11.20 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates
(collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the
Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the
other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the
Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its
stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or
will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and
not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate
and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or
respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto. 

SECTION 11.21 Mortgaged Properties Acknowledgment. Each Lender by making or acquiring a Loan or interest therein or issuing a Letter of
Credit acknowledges that no title insurance policies or surveys were or will be obtained with respect to Mortgages encumbering Mortgaged Property. Consequently, there is a substantial risk that the Mortgages encumbering any such Mortgaged Property
(a) may be invalid or ineffective and, in such event, the Lenders would not have any recovery as a secured creditor or under any title insurance policy with respect thereto, (b) may be subject to title defects and other Liens that could
have an adverse effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property or the Lenders’ ability to recover against same and (c) may not include all of the Mortgaged Property intended to be encumbered by a Mortgage (it being understood that the
foregoing shall be subject in all respects to any express provisions to the contrary in the Interim Order or Final Order). Each Lender agrees that neither the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger, the Borrower (and its Subsidiaries) nor any of
their officers, directors, agents, attorneys or other representatives shall have any liability to any Lender as a result of the foregoing. 

SECTION 11.22 Designation of Secured Agreements. 

(a) The Borrower and any Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank may from time to time following the Revolving Facility Effective Date designate a
Cash Management 

  
 148 








 
Agreement or Swap Agreement permitted hereunder as a Secured Agreement upon written notice (a “Designation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and such Cash
Management Bank or Hedge Bank, in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which Designation Notice shall include a description of such Secured Agreement and the maximum amount of obligations thereunder which are to constitute
obligations secured by the Collateral (the “Other Secured Obligations”) (each, a “Designated Amount”); provided that (x) no such Designated Amount with respect to any Secured Agreement shall constitute
the Other Secured Obligations to the extent that, at the time of delivery of the applicable Designation Notice and after giving effect to such Designated Amount (including to the reserve for Secured Agreements to be established by the Administrative
Agent in connection therewith), the Excess Availability would be less than zero and (y) any such Designated Amount shall constitute the Other Secured Obligations only to the extent that such Designated Amount, together with all other Designated
Amounts under Secured Agreements theretofore designated hereunder and constituting the Other Secured Obligations, does not exceed an amount to be agreed by the Administrative Agent and Revolving Facility Lenders. 

(b) The Borrower and any counterparty to a Secured Agreement may increase, decrease or terminate any Designated Amount in respect of such
Secured Agreement upon written notice to the Administrative Agent; provided that any increase in a Designated Amount shall be deemed to be a new designation of a Designated Amount pursuant to a new Designation Notice and shall be subject to
the limitations set forth in Section 11.22(a). No obligations under any Secured Agreement in excess of the applicable Designated Amount shall constitute the Other Secured Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. 

(c) No counterparty to a Secured Agreement that obtains the benefits of Article X, any Security Document or any Collateral (including the
application of any proceeds thereof) by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise
in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be
required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to any Other Secured Obligations, unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Other Secured Obligations, together with
such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable counterparty to a Secured Agreement. 
 SECTION
11.23 ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT LEGEND. THE LOANS ARE ISSUED WITH ORIGINAL ISSUE DISCOUNT FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 1271 ET SEQ. OF THE CODE. THE ISSUE PRICE, AMOUNT OF ORIGINAL DISCOUNT, ISSUE DATE AND YIELD TO MATURITY FOR SUCH LOANS MAY BE
OBTAINED BY SUBMITTING A WRITTEN REQUEST FOR SUCH INFORMATION TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN. 
 SECTION 11.24 Security and
Intercreditor Agreement Governs. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens and security interests granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents and the exercise of any right or remedy 

  
 149 








 
by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document with respect to Collateral are subject to the provisions of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between
the terms of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement with respect to such matters, the terms of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. 

Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Security and Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of
such Lender and agrees that the Administrative Agent in its various capacities thereunder may take such actions on its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of the Security and Intercreditor Agreement. 

  
 150 








 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the
date first above written.

 “Borrowing
Base” shall mean, at any time of determination, an amount (calculated based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement) equal to (w) 85% of Eligible Billed
Receivables, plus (x) 75% of Eligible Unbilled Receivables, plus (y) 100% of Qualified Cash (not to exceed $50 million); provided, that Qualified Cash (x) shall only be included in the Borrowing Base for purposes
of determining the permissibility of the issuance of or amendment to any R/C Letter of Credit (and shall be disregarded for the purposes of determining whether sufficient Borrowing Base exists to support the making of any Revolving Facility Loan)
and (y) shall not be included in the Borrowing Base for purposes of reducing or eliminating any Borrowing Base Deficiency except to the extent of any then-outstanding Revolving L/C Exposure. 

“Borrowing Base Certificate” shall mean a certificate in substantially the form of Exhibit I hereto (with such changes
therein as may be required by the Agent to reflect the components of, and Reserves against, the Borrowing Base as provided for hereunder from time to time), executed and certified as accurate and complete in all material respects (with any error
that increases the Borrowing Base by more than [1.0]% being material inaccuracy) by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, which shall include detailed calculations as to the Borrowing Base as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. 

“Borrowing Base Deficiency” shall mean, at any time, the existence of Revolving Facility Credit Exposure which is in excess
of the Line Cap. 
 “Dilution Factors” means, without duplication, with respect to any period, the aggregate amount of all
deductions, credit memos, returns, adjustments, allowances, bad debt write-offs and other non-cash credits which are recorded to reduce accounts receivable. 

“Dilution Ratio” means, at any date, the amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to (a) the aggregate amount of the
applicable Dilution Factors for the 12 most recently ended fiscal months divided by (b) total gross sales for the 12 most recently ended fiscal months. 

“Dilution Reserve” shall mean, at any date, the product of (a) the excess (if positive) of (i) the applicable
Dilution Ratio minus (ii) 5.0% multiplied by (b) the Eligible Receivables of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties on such date. 







 “Eligible Receivable” shall mean, as of any date of determination, an Account
(or, in jurisdictions not subject to the UCC, an account or similar term as defined under local law) held by a Loan Party: 
  

	 	a)	that (i) is due and payable within 60 days of (I) with respect to any Billed Receivable, the date on which the invoice with respect thereto was generated and (II) with respect to any Unbilled Receivable, the

make payments on its obligations when due or a Person in or subject to bankruptcy, receivership or any similar insolvency proceedings; 

  

	 	b)	that is not a liability of an Excluded Obligor or an obligor with respect to which more than 25% of the aggregate outstanding balance of all Accounts owing by such obligor to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are

	 	c)	does not arise under a contract or agreement that (a)(i) expressly prohibits the assignment of the receivable or Account arising under such contract or agreement (ii) expressly prohibits the assignment of such
contract or agreement and does not expressly permit assignment of the receivable or Account arising under such contract or agreement, and (b) is governed by a jurisdiction the laws of which the Administrative Agent has not expressly determined
invalidate express or implied anti-assignment provisions in such contract or agreement relating to the rights to payment thereunder; 

  

	 	d)	where the Accounts of the relevant Account Debtor held by the Loan Parties represent no more than 20% of the Eligible Receivables at such time (with any excess beyond such 20% being excluded from Eligible Receivables
pursuant to this clause (d)); 

  

	 	e)	that is denominated and payable in Dollars in the United States of America and is not represented by a note or other negotiable instrument or by chattel paper; provided, for the avoidance of doubt that an Account shall
not be deemed to be represented by a negotiable instrument solely because it is supported by a letter of credit; 

  

	 	f)	 with respect to which no proceedings or investigations are pending or threatened before any Governmental Authority (i) asserting the invalidity
of such Account or the contract or agreement therefor, (ii) asserting the bankruptcy or insolvency of an obligor thereunder; unless, in the case of a bankruptcy proceeding occurring under the Bankruptcy Code, the applicable Account holder has
been designated as a “critical vendor” and the obligor thereunder has obtained (A) in the case of any Account originated pre-petition, a final court order approving the payment of the pre-petition claims of such Account holder on an
administrative priority basis, (B) a standby letter of credit or similar type of financial instrument or arrangement that secures payment by the obligor or (C) in the case of any Account originated

writing by the Administrative Agent and then only for the period prior to any such approval; 

  

	 	h)	that does not represent partially performed or unperformed services, a “milestone” billing or “sale or return” goods and does not arise from a transaction for which any additional performance by the
Borrower or any Subsidiary, or acceptance by or other act of the obligor thereunder, including any required submission of documentation, remains to be performed as a condition to any payments on such Account or the enforceability of such Account
under applicable law; 

  

	 	i)	that is not the liability of an obligor that has any claim against or affecting the Borrower or the Subsidiaries or the property of the Borrower or the Subsidiaries which gives rise to a right of set-off against such

fair credit reporting, equal credit opportunity, fair debt collection practices and privacy) and with respect to which no party to the contract or agreement therefor is in violation of any such law, rule or regulation; 









	 	m)	where under the terms of the related contract or agreement, the right to payment thereof (and any other interest in the Account) may be freely assigned, including as a result of compliance with applicable law (or with
respect to which, the prohibition on the assignment of rights to payment are made fully ineffective under applicable law); 

  

	 	n)	(i) that is payable solely and directly to the Borrower or a Loan Party and not to any other Person (including any shipper of the goods that gave rise to such Account), and (ii) no portion of such Account does not
constitute Collateral; 

  

	 	o)	with respect to which all material consents, licenses, approvals or authorizations of, or registrations with, any Governmental Authority required to be obtained, effected or given in connection with the creation of such
Account or the contract or agreement therefor have been duly obtained, effected or given and are in full force and effect;
