consist of Term A Loans made simultaneously by the Lenders on the Closing Date in accordance with their respective Term A Loan Percentage of the Term A Loan Facility. Only one Term A Loan Borrowing shall be permitted on the Closing Date, unless the
Borrowers request Term A Loans of different Types and/or (in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans) Interest Periods, in which case multiple simultaneous Term A Loan Borrowings shall be permitted on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under this
Section 2.01 and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. Term A Loans may be Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans, as further provided herein. The Borrowers jointly and severally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
account of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Term A Loan Percentage, all amounts due under the Term A Loans on the Maturity Date or such earlier date as is required hereunder. 

2.02 Term A Loan Borrowings; Conversions and Continuations of Term A Loans. 

(a) Each Term A Loan Borrowing, each conversion of Term A Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans
shall be made upon the Borrowers’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent. (i) not later than 10:00 a.m. two (2) Business Days

Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable LIBOR Rate Loans. If the Borrowers request a Term A Loan Borrowing of,
conversion to, or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fail to specify an Interest Period, they will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month.

Lender of the amount of its Term A Loan Percentage of the applicable Term A Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any

a prepayment in full of the Term A Loans may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the

 2.09 Fees. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, for the accounts of the Persons identified therein, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter and the Commitment Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall
not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable
Rate. 
 (a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the
case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis
of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Term A Loan for the day on which the Term A Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Term A Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Term A Loan or such portion is paid; provided,
that any Term A Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment
to the financial statements of the Borrowers or for any other reason, the Borrowers or the Lenders determine that (i) the Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrowers as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation
of the Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the
Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender), an amount
equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any
Lender, as the case may be, under Section 2.08(b) or under Article VIII. The Borrowers’ obligations under this paragraph shall survive the repayment of all Obligations hereunder. 

2.11 Evidence of Debt. The Term A Loan made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by
such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Term A Loans made by the
Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the
Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall
control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Term A Note. Each Lender may attach schedules
to its Term A Note and endorse thereon the date, Type, amount and maturity of its Term A Loan and payments with respect thereto. 

  
 28 









 2.12 Payments Generally; the Administrative Agent’s Clawback 

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction (subject
to Section 3.01) for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective
Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 Noon on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender
its Term A Loan Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00 Noon shall be
deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next
following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 
 (b)

 (i) Funding by the Lenders; Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have
received notice from a Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of the applicable Term A Loan Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has
made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its
share of the applicable Term A Loan Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately
available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by 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, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrowers and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative
Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrowers the amount of such interest paid by the Borrowers for such period. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the
Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 29 









 (ii) Payments by the Borrowers; Presumptions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative
Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the appropriate Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made
such payment, then each of the appropriate Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under
this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions
Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Term A Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by
the Administrative Agent because the conditions to a Term A Loan Borrowing set forth in Section 4.01 are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as
received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 (d) Obligations of the Lenders Several. The obligations of
the Lenders hereunder to make the Term A Loans and to make payments under Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Term A Loan or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date
required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Term A Loan or to make its payment under
Section 10.04(c). 
 (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the
funds for any Term A Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Term A Loan in any particular place or manner. 

(f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully
all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties. 

  
 30 









 2.13 Sharing of Payments. 

(a) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or
interest on the Term A Loan made by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Term A Loan and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein,
then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term A Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as
shall be equitable, 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 A Loans and other amounts owing them;
provided, that: 
 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto
is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 
 (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement
(including, but not limited to, the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term A Loan to any
assignee or participant, or (C) any payment of consideration for executing any amendment, waiver or consent in connection with this Agreement so long as such consideration has been offered to all consenting Lenders. 

Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such
participation. 
 2.14 [Reserved]. 
 2.15 Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers. 
 (a) Each of the
Borrowers is accepting joint and several liability for the Obligations of all of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of each other Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. 

(b) Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a
co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other the Borrowers with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations of the Borrowers (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.15),
it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them. 

  
 31 









 (c) If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with
respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. 

(d) The Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this Section 2.15 constitute full recourse obligations of
each of such the Borrowers enforceable against each such Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets. 
 (e) Except
as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each of the Borrowers, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Term A Loans or other extensions of
credit made under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands,
notices (other than those required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents) and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement. Each Borrower, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives
all defenses which may be available by virtue of any valuation, stay, moratorium law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, any right to require the marshaling of assets of the Borrowers and any other entity or Person primarily or
secondarily liable with respect to any of the Obligations and all suretyship defenses generally. Each of the Borrowers, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the
time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by the Lenders at any time or times in
respect of any default by any of the Borrowers in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by the Lenders in respect of any of the Obligations, and the
taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any of the Borrowers. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, each of the Borrowers assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of the Lenders with respect to the failure by any of the Borrowers to comply with any of its respective Obligations including,
without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.15, afford
grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.15, it being the intention of each of the Borrowers that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder
remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of such the Borrowers under this Section 2.15 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each of the Borrowers under this
Section 2.15 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, re-construction or similar proceeding with respect to any of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the
Lenders. The joint and several liability of the Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, membership, constitution or place of
formation of any of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. 

  
 32 









 (f) To the extent any Borrower makes a payment hereunder in excess of the aggregate amount
of the benefit received by such Borrower in respect of the extensions of credit under this Agreement (the “Benefit Amount”), then such Borrower, after the payment in full in cash, of all of the Obligations, shall be entitled to
recover from each other Borrower such excess payment, pro rata, in accordance with the ratio of the Benefit Amount received by each such other Borrower to the total Benefit Amount received by all the Borrowers, and the right to such recovery
shall be deemed to be an asset and property of such Borrower so funding; provided, that each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other the Borrowers with respect
to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time
as all of the Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document
are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency,
bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full
before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Borrower therefor. 
 (g) Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that the payment of any amounts due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Borrower to any other Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full
in cash of the Obligations. Each Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrences and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Borrower will not demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other
Borrower owing to such Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness before payment in
full in cash of the Obligations, such amounts shall be collected, enforced, received by such Borrower as trustee for the Administrative Agent and be paid over to the Administrative Agent for the pro rata accounts of the Lenders (in accordance
with each such Lender’s Term A Loan Percentage) to be applied to repay (or be held as security for the repayment of) the Obligations. 
 (h) The provisions of this Section 2.15 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their successors and assigns, and may be enforced in good faith by them from
time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as the occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders first to marshal any of their claims or to exercise any of their rights
against any other Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to them against any other Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of
this Section 2.15 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or
must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowers or is repaid in good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim, or
otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.15 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made. 

  
 33 









 (i) It is the intention and agreement of the Borrowers and the Lenders that the obligations
of the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be valid and enforceable against each Borrower to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Accordingly, if any provision of this Agreement creating any obligation of the Borrowers in favor of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be declared to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect or to any extent, it is the stated intention and agreement of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that any balance of the
obligation created by such provision and all other obligations of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders created by other provisions of this Agreement shall remain valid and enforceable. Likewise, if by final order a court of
competent jurisdiction shall declare any sums which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may be otherwise entitled to collect from the Borrowers under this Agreement to be in excess of those permitted under any law (including any federal or
state fraudulent conveyance or like statute or rule of law) applicable to the Borrowers’ obligations under this Agreement, it is the stated intention and agreement of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that all sums not
in excess of those permitted under such applicable law shall remain fully collectible by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from the Borrowers. 
 (j) Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.15 at any time shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that
would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other Debt Relief Laws. 

2.16 Designation of Parent as the Agent for the Borrowers. For purposes of this Agreement, each of the Borrowers hereby designates
the Parent as its agent and representative for all purposes hereunder (including with respect to any notices, demands, communications or requests under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents) and the Parent hereby accepts each such appointment.
The Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Parent as a notice or communication from all the Borrowers, and may give any notice or communication required or permitted
to be given to any Borrower or the Borrowers hereunder to the Parent on behalf of such Borrower or the Borrowers. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by
the Parent shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. 

  
 34 









 2.17 [Reserved]. 

2.18 Defaulting Lenders. 
 (a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting
Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to
approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.01. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08, shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrowers may request
(so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Term A Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;
third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers
against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any payments,
prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a
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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par
that portion of outstanding Term A Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Term A Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with
their respective Term A Loan Percentages (calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded its Term A Loan), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect
to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from
Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

  
 35 









 ARTICLE III. TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

3.01 Taxes. 
 (a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes. 
 (i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If
any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of a Borrower or the Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent or such Borrower, then the Administrative
Agent or such Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below. 

(ii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United
States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the
information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental
Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required
withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
withholding or deduction been made. 
 (iii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws
other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the
information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that
after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such withholding or deduction been made. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting
the provisions of subsection (a) above, but subject to subsection (c) below, the Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative
Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

  
 36 









 (c) Tax Indemnifications. 

(i) Each of the Borrowers shall, and does hereby, jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect
thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient
or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be obligated to make payment to such Recipient pursuant to this Section 3.01 in respect of penalties, interest and other
similar liabilities attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes if (A) written demand therefor has not been made by such Recipient within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date on which such Recipient received written notice
of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the relevant Governmental Authority, but only to the extent such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to such failure or delay by such Recipient in making such
written demand, or (B) such penalties, interest and other similar liabilities are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Recipient or its Affiliates. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability
delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each of the Borrowers shall, and does hereby,
jointly and severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required
pursuant to Section 3.01(c)(ii). 
 (ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make
payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative
Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the
provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are
payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or a Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set
off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii). 

(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes
by any Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrowers, as the case
may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be. 

  
 37 









 (e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document
shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the
Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense
or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person, 
 (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver
to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed
originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 
 (B)
any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

(I) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax
treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty; 

  
 38 









 (II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent
shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”)
and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (IV) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the
beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other
certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such
Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or
prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by
applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 
 (D) if a payment made to a Lender
under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the
Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the
Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes
of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

  
 39 









 (iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant
to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

 (f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have
any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole
discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall
pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of
all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the
Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such
Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to such Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient
in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or
additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any
Borrower or any other Person. 
 (g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall
survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations. 

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has
asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund a Term A Loan whose interest is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, or
any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the
Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or
maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest 

  
 40 









 
rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base
Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such
Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the Borrowers’ option, prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary
to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR
Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate,
the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBOR Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is
no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent determines in connection with any request for a LIBOR Rate Loan or
a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank LIBOR market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means
do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (c) the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with
respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding such LIBOR Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation
of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the LIBOR Rate
component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for
a Term A Loan Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Term A Loan Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 

3.04 Increased Costs; Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 
 (i) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve
requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e)); 

  
 41 









 (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes,
(B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits,
reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 
 (iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any
other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any
of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such LIBOR Rate Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or
receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional
costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law
affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Term A Loan made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in
Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as
will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates for
Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section, together
with a brief explanation for the increased costs and the basis for the calculation thereof, and delivered to the Borrowers shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to
demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant
to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except 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). 

  
 42 









 (e) Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans. The Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as
such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal
amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such LIBOR Rate Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each
date on which interest is payable on such LIBOR Rate Loan, provided the Borrowers shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender
fails to give notice ten (10) days’ prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice. 

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrowers
shall promptly compensate such Lender (except, in the case of Section 3.05(c), any Defaulting Lender) for and hold such Lender (except, in the case of Section 3.05(c), any Defaulting Lender) harmless from any loss, cost or
expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Term A Loan other than a
Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Term A Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any failure by the Borrowers (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Term A Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Term A Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date
or in the amount notified by the Borrowers; or 
 (c) any assignment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 10.13; 
 including any cost or expense
arising from the liquidation, or redeployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Term A Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrowers shall also pay any customary administrative fees
charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR Rate Loan made by it at
the LIBOR Rate used in determining the LIBOR Rate for such LIBOR Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Loan
was in fact so funded. 
 3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or requires the
Borrowers to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then
at the request of the Borrowers such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Term A Loan hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for
the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

  
 43 









 (b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.04, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a
notice pursuant to Section 3.02, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), the Borrowers may replace such Lender in accordance with
Section 10.13. 
 3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall
survive the repayment of all Obligations hereunder, only if such Obligations accrue prior to the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full in cash of all Obligations outstanding hereunder and the resignation of the Administrative
Agent.

 ARTICLE V. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 The Borrowers represent and warrant to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that: 

5.01 Corporate Authority.

in current status under the laws of its respective state of organization, (ii) has all requisite corporate (or equivalent company or partnership) power to own its property and conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated,
and (iii) is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership, limited liability company or similar business entity and is duly authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which its property or business as presently conducted or
contemplated makes such qualification necessary, except where a failure to be in good standing or so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

Borrower, (ii) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate (or equivalent company or partnership) proceedings, (iii) do not conflict with or result in any material breach or contravention of any provision of law, statute, rule or

before which any proceeding therefor may be brought. 
 5.02 Governmental Approvals. The execution, delivery and
performance by the Borrowers of the Loan Documents and the Transactions (other than consummation of the R360 Acquisition) do not require any approval or consent of, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person, other than those
approvals and consents already obtained and filings already made. 
 5.03 Title to Properties; Leases. The
Borrowers own all of the assets reflected in the consolidated balance sheets as at the Balance Sheet Date or acquired since that date (except property and assets sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary course of business since that date),

without known conflict with any rights of others. 
 5.07 Litigation. Except as shown on Schedules 5.07 and
5.16 hereto, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations of any kind pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against any Borrower before any court, tribunal or administrative agency or board which either in any
individual case or in the aggregate, has or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.08 No

reserves. 
 5.09 Compliance with Other Instruments, Laws, Etc. No Borrower is violating any provision of its
Organization Documents, any agreement or instrument by which any of them may be subject or by which any of them or any of their properties may be bound, or any Law, in a manner which could reasonably be expected to result in the imposition of
substantial penalties or have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.10 Tax Status. Each of the Borrowers has (a) made or
filed (x) all federal income tax returns, reports and declarations, (y) all material state income tax returns, reports and declarations, and (z) all other material tax returns, reports and declarations required by any jurisdiction to

 (a) Each Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) and, to the Borrowers’ knowledge, each
Multiemployer Plan, is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other Federal or state laws except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Pension Plan (other than a Multiemployer
Plan) that is intended to be a qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination or opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that the form of such Pension Plan is qualified under
Section 401(a) of the Code and the trust related thereto has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service to be exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code, or an application for such a letter is currently being
processed by the Internal Revenue Service. To the best knowledge of the Borrowers, nothing has occurred that would prevent or cause the loss of such tax-qualified status. 
 (b) There are no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan that could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There has been no prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan; (ii) each Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate has met all applicable requirements under the Pension Funding Rules
in respect of each Pension Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan), and no waiver of the minimum funding standards under the Pension Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained; (iii) as of the most recent valuation date for any Pension Plan
(other than a Multiemployer Plan), the funding target attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is sixty percent (60%) or higher and neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate knows of any facts or circumstances
that could reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment percentage for any such plan to drop below sixty percent (60%) as of the most recent valuation date; (iv) neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred
any liability to the PBGC other than for the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become due that are unpaid; (v) neither any Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to
Section 4069 or Section 4212(c) of ERISA; and (vi) no Pension Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) has been terminated by the plan administrator thereof nor by the PBGC, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that could
reasonably be expected to cause the PBGC to institute proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate any Pension Plan (other than a Multiemployer Plan) and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, there has been no notification to the Borrowers that a
Multiemployer Plan has been terminated by the plan administrator thereof or by the PBGC, and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to cause the PBGC to institute
proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate any Multiemployer Plan.

 The Borrowers hereby acknowledge that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the Arrangers
may, but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Debt
Domain, IntraLinks, Syndtrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public
information with respect to the Parent or its Subsidiaries, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. The Borrowers
hereby agree that (w) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently
on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any
material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent
such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.07); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform
designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the

such Borrower’s board of directors (or similar governing body) in the exercise of its reasonable judgment and except where the failure of a Borrower to remain so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and shall not become obligated
under any contract or binding arrangement which, at the time it was entered into would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Borrower will continue to engage primarily in the businesses conducted by it on the Closing Date and in related businesses,
except to the extent otherwise permitted under Sections 7.03 and 7.04. 
 6.06 Maintenance of Properties.
The Borrowers will cause all material properties used or useful in the conduct of their businesses to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all
necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Borrowers may be necessary so that the businesses carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all
times; provided, however, that nothing in this section shall prevent the Borrowers from discontinuing the operation and maintenance of any of their properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Borrowers, desirable in
the conduct of their business and which does not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 56 









 6.07 Insurance. The Borrowers will maintain with financially sound and reputable
insurance companies, funds or underwriters insurance of the kinds, covering the risks (other than risks arising out of or in any way connected with personal liability of any officers and directors thereof) and in the relative proportionate amounts
typically carried by reasonable and prudent companies conducting businesses similar to that of the Borrowers. In addition, the Borrowers will furnish from time to time, upon the Administrative Agent’s request, a summary of the insurance

foreign jurisdictions which in the aggregate are not material to the business or assets of any Borrower on an individual basis or of the Borrowers on a consolidated basis) imposed upon it and its real properties, sales and activities, or any
material part thereof, or upon the income or profits therefrom, as well as all claims for labor, materials, or supplies, which if unpaid might by law become a Lien or charge upon any material portion of its property, unless such Lien is a Permitted
Lien; provided, however, that any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim need not be paid if the validity or amount thereof shall currently be contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and if such Borrower shall have set
aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto; and provided further, that the Borrowers will pay all such taxes, assessments, charges, levies or claims forthwith upon the commencement of proceedings to foreclose any Lien
which may have attached as security therefor. 
 6.09 Inspection of Properties, Books, and Contracts. The Borrowers will
permit the Administrative Agent or any other designated representative of the Lenders (including any Lender), upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, to visit and inspect any of their properties, to examine their books of account
(including the making of periodic accounts receivable reviews), or contracts (and to make copies thereof and extracts therefrom), and to discuss their affairs, finances and accounts with, and to be advised as to the same by, their officers, all at
such times and intervals as the Lenders or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. 
 6.10 Compliance with Laws,
Contracts, Licenses and Permits; Maintenance of Material Licenses and Permits. The Borrowers will and will cause the Excluded Subsidiaries to (i) comply with the provisions of their Organization Documents, (ii) comply with the
provisions of all agreements and instruments by which they or any of their properties may be bound; and (iii) comply with all applicable Laws (including Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits) except, in the cause of subsections
(ii) and (iii), where noncompliance with such applicable Laws would not have a Material Adverse Effect. If at any time while any Term A Loan is outstanding or any Lender or the Administrative Agent has any obligation to make Term A
Loans hereunder, any authorization, consent, approval, permit or license from any Governmental Authority shall become necessary or required in order that the Borrowers may fulfill any of their obligations hereunder, the Borrowers will immediately
take or cause to be taken all reasonable steps within the power of the Borrowers to obtain such authorization, consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Lenders with evidence thereof. 

  
 57 









 6.11 Environmental Indemnification. Each Borrower covenants and agrees that it will
indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims, expense, damage, loss or liability incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (including all costs of legal representation) relating
to (a) any Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials on the Real Estate; (b) any violation of any Environmental Laws with respect to conditions at the Real Estate or the operations conducted thereon; (c) the investigation
or remediation of offsite locations at which any Borrower or its predecessors are alleged to have directly or indirectly disposed of Hazardous Materials; or (d) any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any Excluded
Subsidiary. It is expressly acknowledged by each Borrower that this covenant of indemnification shall include claims, expense, damage, loss or liability incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders based upon the Administrative Agent’s
or the Lenders’ negligence (but not gross negligence or willful misconduct, in each case as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment), and this covenant shall survive any foreclosure or any
modification, release or discharge of the Loan Documents or the payment of the Term A Loans and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their successors and assigns. 

6.12 Further Assurances. The Borrowers will cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and execute such further
instruments and documents as the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to carry out to the Lenders’ satisfaction the Transactions (other than the R360 Acquisition).

thereof, written notice of the initiation of any action, claim, complaint, or any other notice of dispute or potential litigation (including without limitation any alleged violation of any Environmental Law or any dispute, litigation, investigation
or proceeding between any Borrower and any Governmental Authority), wherein the potential liability could reasonably be expected to be in excess of $15,000,000, together with a copy of each such notice received by any Borrower or any Excluded
Subsidiary. 
 6.14 Notice of Certain Events Concerning Insurance and Environmental Claims.

Borrower’s operations which could reasonably be expected to result in liability in excess of $15,000,000; (ii) upon obtaining knowledge of any potential or known Release or threat of Release of any Hazardous Materials at, from, or into the
Real Estate which it reports or is reportable in writing to any Governmental Authority which could reasonably be expected to result in liability in excess of $15,000,000; (iii) upon receipt of any notice of violation of any Environmental Laws
or of any Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials, including a notice or claim of liability or potential responsibility from any third party (including without limitation any Governmental Authority) and including notice of any formal
inquiry, proceeding, demand, investigation or other action with regard to (A) operation of the Real Estate, (B) contamination on, from or into the Real Estate, or (C) investigation or remediation of offsite locations at which any
Borrower or any of its predecessors is alleged to have directly or indirectly disposed of Hazardous Materials, which violation or Release in any such case could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or (iv) upon obtaining
knowledge that any material expense or loss has been incurred by such Governmental Authority in connection with the assessment, containment, removal or remediation of any Hazardous Materials with respect to which any Borrower could reasonably be
expected to have liability in excess of $15,000,000 or for which a Lien for a like amount could reasonably be expected to be imposed on the Real Estate. 
 6.15 Notice of Default. The Borrowers will promptly notify the Lenders in writing of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. If any Person shall give any notice or take any other action
in respect of a claimed default (whether or not constituting an Event of Default) under this Agreement or any other note, evidence of Indebtedness, indenture or other obligation evidencing Indebtedness in excess of $15,000,000 as to which any
Borrower is a party or obligor, whether as principal or surety, the Borrowers shall forthwith give written notice thereof to the Lenders, describing the notice or action and the nature of the claimed default.

Documents is commenced by or on behalf of any Borrower or any stockholder of any Borrower who is an officer or director of such Borrower, or any court or any other governmental or regulatory authority or agency of competent jurisdiction makes a
determination that, or issues a judgment, order, decree or ruling to the effect that, any one or more of the Loan Documents is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in accordance with the terms thereof; 

(l) (i) other than pursuant to the sale of all of the Equity Interests of a Borrower permitted under Section 7.04, the
Parent at any time legally or beneficially owns less than one hundred percent (100%) of the shares of the Equity Interests of each other Borrower (directly or indirectly in accordance with Section 6.16), or (ii) any person or
group of persons (within the meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act) has acquired beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under said Act) of twenty-five percent
(25%) or more of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Parent; or, during any period of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months, individuals who were directors of the Parent on the first day of such period cease to constitute a
majority of the board of directors unless such new directors were approved by a majority of the directors who were directors on the first day of such period; provided, however, that any such change of control described in this
clause (ii) resulting from an acquisition permitted under Section 7.04 shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default hereunder; or 
 (m) the occurrence of a “Change of Control” under and as defined in any documents executed and/or delivered in connection any Covenanted Senior Debt. 

8.02 Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the
request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders: 
 (a) declare the commitment of each Lender to make a Term A Loan
to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated; 
 (b) declare the unpaid principal amount of
all outstanding Term A Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any
kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers; and 

  
 70 









 (c) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders any other right or remedy available under
any other Loan Document, at law, in equity, under any other instrument, document or agreement or otherwise; 
 provided, however,
that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code, the obligation of each Lender to make a Term A Loan shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of
all outstanding Term A Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 

The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or
remedies provided by law, in equity, under any other instrument, document or agreement or otherwise, whether now existing or hereafter arising. 
 8.03 Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Term A Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in
the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.18, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees,
charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; 
 Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including fees, charges and
disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them; 

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Term A Loans and other
Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them; 
 Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Term A Loans ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause
Fourth held by them; 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.

 ARTICLE IX. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

9.01 Appointment and Authorization of the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of
America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and none of the Borrowers nor any
other Borrower shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the
Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect
only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 
 9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the
Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “the Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has
occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers,
except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative
Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification
or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; 

  
 72 









 (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have
any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity; and 
 (d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or
at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections
8.02 and 10.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have
knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrowers or a Lender. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or
inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4.01 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm
receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 9.04 Reliance by the
Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any
electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement
made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Term A Loan that by its
terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the
making of such Term A Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in
accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative
Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 

  
 73 









 9.06 Resignation of the Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such
notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrowers, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United
States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed
by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set
forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 
 (b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law,
by notice in writing to the Borrowers and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrowers, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the
Removal Effective Date. 
 (c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable)
(i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or
removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(h) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the
Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already
discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor.
After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or
removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.


  
 74 









 9.07 Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent and Other the Lenders. Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties 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 Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it
shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

 9.08 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender holding a title listed on the
cover page hereof shall 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 or a Lender hereunder. 

9.09 The Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or
any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Term A Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether
the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise; 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term A Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04. Nothing contained herein shall be
deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to
authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

  
 75 









 9.10 Release of Borrowers. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent
to release any Borrower from its obligations under the Loan Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or is designated as an Excluded Subsidiary in accordance with Section 6.19.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, subject to the provisions of Section 10.01(g), the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release any Borrower from its obligations
under the Loan Documents pursuant to this Section 9.10. 
 ARTICLE X. MISCELLANEOUS 

10.01 Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any
departure by the Borrowers or any other Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrowers or the applicable Borrower, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each
such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) waive any condition set forth in Section 4.01 (other than subsection (g) thereof) without the written consent
of each Lender except that, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, only a waiver by the Administrative Agent shall be required with respect to immaterial matters or items noted in any post-closing letter made available to the Lenders
with respect to which the Borrowers have given assurances satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such items shall be delivered promptly following the Closing Date; 
 (b) extend or increase the Term A Loan Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Term A Loan Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 8.02) without the written consent of such Lender;

 (c) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment (excluding mandatory prepayments, if
any) of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that any vote to rescind
acceleration of amounts owing with respect to the Term A Loans and other Obligations under the Loan Documents shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders); 
 (d) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Term A Loan or (subject to clause (iv) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01 with respect to the
Fee Letter) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby except that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (i) to amend
the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest at the Default Rate or (ii) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment
would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Term A Loan or to reduce any fee; 
 (e) change Section 2.13 or
Section 8.03 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender; 

  
 76 









 (f) change any provision of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders”
or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender;

 (g) except as provided in Section 9.10, release the Parent or all or substantially all of the Borrowers from their
Obligations under the Loan Documents without the written consent of each Lender; or 
 (h) release all or substantially all of
any collateral hereafter securing all or any portion of the Obligations without the written consent of each Lender, subject to customary Lien release exceptions as may be provided in the documentation pursuant to which any such collateral is
obtained; 
 and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the
Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder
waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or
consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Term A Loan Commitment of any Defaulting
Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender, and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more
adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 Notwithstanding any provision in this
Section 10.01 to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (i) to add one or more additional revolving credit or term loan facilities to
this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit and all related obligations and liabilities arising in connection therewith from time to time outstanding to share ratably (or on a basis subordinated to the existing facilities hereunder) in the
benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the obligations and liabilities from time to time outstanding in respect of the existing facilities hereunder, and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, to permit, as deemed
appropriate by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Required Lenders, the Lenders providing such additional credit facilities to participate in any required vote or action required to be approved by the Required Lenders or by any other
number, percentage or class of Lenders hereunder. 
 If any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with
respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender, or requires the consent of each Lender directly affected by such proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release, and such amendment, waiver, consent or release has been approved
by the Required Lenders or, as applicable, by more than fifty percent (50%) of the Lenders who would be directly affected by such amendment, waiver, consent or release (such non-consenting Lender in any such case, a “Non-Consenting
Lender”), the Borrowers may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, (y) repay such Non-Consenting Lender’s Term A Loan on a non-pro-rata basis, or (z) replace such Non-Consenting Lender in accordance with
Section 10.13; provided, that (i) such amendment, waiver, consent or release can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section and/or by such repayment (together with all other such repayments
effected by, or assignments required by, the Borrowers to be made pursuant to this paragraph) and (ii) no Event of Default will be continuing after giving effect to such amendment, waiver, consent or release and such assignment(s) and/or
repayment(s). 

  
 77

facsimile as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

of notices that may contain material non-public information relating to the Borrowers), as may be updated pursuant to Section 10.02(d). 
 Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given
when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient), with confirmation of transmission by the transmitting
equipment. Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such subsection (b). 

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by
electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to Article II if such
Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other
communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by them, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise
prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function,
as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as
described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii), if such notice,
e-mail or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice, e-mail or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. 

  
 78 









 (c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS
AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN
CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person
for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrowers’ or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such the Agent Party;
provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual
damages). 
 (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may change its address,
facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to
the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number,
facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of
such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public
Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the
Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 

  
 79 









 (e) Reliance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent
and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic or electronic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of a Responsible Officer of the Borrowers even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner
specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrowers shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers, except in the
case of any of the foregoing Persons who are seeking indemnification hereunder, to the extent such reliance resulted from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and
nonappealable judgment. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 

10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay
by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive
of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or
in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrowers or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such
enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit
(a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising
setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding
relative to any Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall
have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to
Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 

  
 80 









 10.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent

and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the Transactions shall be consummated), and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender; provided that for any individual enforcement action or series or
related actions, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay legal fees, charges and disbursements of more than one primary outside counsel and any reasonably necessary local outside counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders collectively,
unless the representation of all such Persons by one counsel would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest, in which case the Borrower shall also be required to pay the legal fees, charges and
disbursements of additional outside counsel to such conflicted Persons), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section,
or (B) in connection with the Term A Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Term A Loans. 

(b) Indemnification by the Borrowers. The Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each
Arranger, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
related expenses (including settlement costs and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee; provided that for any individual claim or series or related claims, this indemnity shall only apply to the
legal fees, charges and disbursements of one primary outside counsel and any reasonably necessary local outside counsel for all Indemnitees, unless the representation of all Indemnitees by one counsel would be inappropriate due to the existence of
an actual or potential conflict of interest, in which case this indemnity shall also apply to the legal fees, charges and disbursements of additional outside counsel to such conflicted Indemnitees), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any
Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrowers) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any
sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Term A Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any aspect of the R360 Acquisition, or
(iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any other Borrower, and
regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall
not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrowers against an Indemnitee for material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrowers
have obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in their favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.01(c), this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with
respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 

  
 81 









 (c) Reimbursement by the Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason
fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing (and without
limiting their obligation to do so), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Term A Loan Percentage (determined as of the time that the
applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and calculated as if any Defaulting Lender had funded its Term A Loan) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability
or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any
such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d). 

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Borrowers shall not
assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out
of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Term A Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection
(b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other
information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the Transactions other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by
a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (e) Payments. All amounts due under this
Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor. 
 (f) Survival. The agreements
in this Section and the indemnity provisions of Section 10.02(e) shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.


  
 82 









 10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the
Borrowers is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not
been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent,
plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding
sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 10.06 Successors and
Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to
the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the
Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section,
(ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this
Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective
successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by the Lenders. Any
Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Term A Loan at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be
subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Term A Loan at the time owing to such assigning
Lender or contemporary assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 
 (B) In any case not described in subsection
(b)(i)(A) of this Section, the outstanding principal amount of the Term A Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, the Borrowers otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 

  
 83 









 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. 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 with respect to the Term A Loan assigned. 
 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 

(A) The consent of the Borrowers (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such
assignment unless they object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 
 (B) The consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender
or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender. 
 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to
waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrowers or any of their respective
Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (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. 
 (vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any
Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an
aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the
Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Term A Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to
(x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata
share of all Term A Loans in accordance with its Term A Loan Percentage (calculated as if such Defaulting Lender had funded its Term A Loan). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting
Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such
compliance occurs. 

  
 84 









 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause
(c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption,
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits and subject to the
obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed
by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the Borrowers (at their expense)
shall execute and deliver a Term A Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section. 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely
for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the
Lenders, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term A Loan owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error,
and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for
inspection by each of the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender
may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register. Upon its receipt of and, if required, consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, such Eligible
Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 3.01 (unless such assignee is already a Lender), together with the fee payable under Section 10.06(b)(iii), the Administrative Agent
will, on the effective date thereof, record the Assignment and Assumption on the Register. 

  
 85 









 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or any Borrower or any of the Borrowers’ respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of the Term A Loan owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to
deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.04(c) without
regard to the existence of any participation. 
 Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide
that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits and subject to the obligations of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 and shall be subject to the mitigation obligations and replacement pursuant to Section 3.06 to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender
who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided, that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the
provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.01 or 3.04, with respect
to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the
Participant acquired the applicable participation, which Change in Law would have entitled the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation to receive such greater payment. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the
Borrowers’ request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall,
acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term
A Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Term A Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Term A Loans
or other obligations are in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative
Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 86 









 (e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Term A Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no
such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (f) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to
include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case
may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 
 (g) Successor Administrative Agent. The Borrowers shall have the right to approve
any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to Section 9.6 at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The fees payable by the Borrowers to
a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrowers and such successor. 
 10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that
Information may be disclosed, subject to the provisions set forth in this Section 10.07, (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the
confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority, purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties
(including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party
hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder,
(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments
hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Parent or its Subsidiaries or the Term A Loans or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and
monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the Term A Loans, (h) with the consent of the Borrowers or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of
this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers. 

  
 87 









 
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Parent or any Subsidiary relating to the Parent, any Subsidiary or any of their respective
businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from
the Parent or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential (other than Information provided under Sections 6.04, 6.13, 6.14, 6.15, 6.18 or
7.14 (i.e., such Information provided under such sections does not need to be labeled confidential to be treated as confidential)). Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information
concerning the Parent or any Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with
applicable Law, including Securities Laws and state securities Laws. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless specifically
prohibited by applicable Law or court order, each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates shall, prior to disclosure thereof, notify the Borrowers of any request for disclosure of any such non-public
information by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate by such Governmental Authority) or pursuant to legal
process. 
 The provisions of this Section 10.07 do not apply to any proceedings between the parties to this
Agreement. 
 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each
of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after giving prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any of
them against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or any such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrowers may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such
indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance
with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the
Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its
Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly after any
such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 

  
 88 









 10.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any
Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Term A Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee,
or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the
Obligations hereunder. 
 10.10 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed
in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Except as provided in Section 4.01 or as
provided in the applicable Loan Document, this Agreement or such other Loan Documents shall become effective when they shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof or
thereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement and any other Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 10.11 Survival of
Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and
delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and
notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Term A Loan Borrowing, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Term A Loan or any other Obligation
hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. 
 10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the
parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.
The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that
the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the
extent not so limited. 

  
 89 









 10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If the Borrowers are entitled to replace a Lender
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrowers the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then
the Borrowers may, at their 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, and consents
required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.01 and 3.04) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible
Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided, that: 
 (a) the Borrowers or assignee Lender shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.06(b)(iv) unless such assignment fee is waived by the Administrative
Agent in its sole discretion pursuant to Section 10.06(b)(iv); 
 (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an
amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term A Loan, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the
Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); 
 (c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 
 (d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws;
and 
 (e) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall
have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or
delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

 10.14 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 

(a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN

 In fiscal 2012, Parent relocated its corporate
headquarters from Folsom, California to The Woodlands, Texas. In connection with the relocation, Parent established a company-wide relocation program for all employees. Parent’s relocation program includes home marketing assistance to help sell
an employee’s home, a guaranteed purchase offer, a directed offer above appraised value benefit, home purchase assistance, reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket expenses related to relocating and certain home sale expenses, shipment of
household goods, temporary living allowance for relocation costs and tax gross-ups for certain relocation benefits. These relocation benefits are available to all employees, including Parent’s named executive officers, who relocated from
Parent’s previous headquarters in Folsom, California, to Parent’s new headquarters in The Woodlands, Texas, and are subject to a five-year repayment obligation under which the employee may be required to refund to Parent all or a portion
of the moving and relocation expenses Parent reimburses to the employee or pays for the employee in the event of certain terminations of employment before the expiration of the five-year repayment period. 

Parent engaged the services of an independent relocation company (the “Provider”) to provide the relocation and related services. Pursuant to
the guaranteed purchase offer provision of the relocation program, the Provider offers to purchase an employee’s former residence at a purchase price equal to the average of two independent appraisals of the property (or if there is more than a
5% variance between the two appraised values, the average of the two out of three closest appraisal values) or equal to an independent third-party offer. Pursuant to the directed offer above appraised value provision of the relocation program, under
which an employee that purchased or built their home within two years of the relocation may be offered a purchase price equal to such employee’s cost basis, the Provider offers to purchase such employee’s former residence at a purchase
price equal to his or her cost basis of purchasing or building his or her home. Parent will reimburse the Provider for all expenses, including any losses from the resale of the residence to a third-party buyer, and Parent will receive the gains from
the resale of the residence, if the resale price is greater than the price the Provider paid for the property.
