date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding for all such loans by such Revolving Credit Lender not to exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment;
provided, however, that at no time shall any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to make a Revolving Loan in excess of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Available Credit. Within the limits of the Revolving
Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender, amounts of Revolving Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1. 
 Section 2.2 Borrowing Procedures 
 (a) Each Borrowing shall be
made on notice given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (i) one Business Day, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) three Business Days, in the case of a Borrowing

date of such proposed Borrowing, (B) the aggregate amount of such proposed Borrowing, (C) whether any portion of the proposed Borrowing will be of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, (D) for each Eurodollar Rate Loan, the
initial Interest Period or Periods thereof and (E) the Available Credit (after giving effect to (i) any Availability Reserve then in effect, a notice with respect to which has been provided to the Borrower prior to the delivery of such
Notice of Borrowing, and (ii) the proposed Borrowing). The Revolving Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, subject to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), the Notice of Borrowing specifies that
all or a portion thereof shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans), if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent may
make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. Each
Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 

(b) The Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Credit Lender a notice by not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the
date a Notice of Borrowing has been delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(a) above of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Notice of Borrowing and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested in
such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable interest rate determined pursuant to Section 2.14(a) (Determination of Interest Rate). Each Revolving Credit Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of the proposed
Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), in immediately available funds, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such proposed Borrowing. Upon
fulfillment (or due waiver in accordance with Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.)) (i) on the Effective

Date, of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.1 (Conditions to Effectiveness) and (ii) at any time (including the Effective Date), of the applicable conditions set
forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit), and after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, the Administrative Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower. 

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Revolving Credit Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing
that such Revolving Credit Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that such Revolving Credit
Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrower severally agree to
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative
Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Revolving Credit Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and
thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Revolving Credit Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute
such Revolving Credit Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Revolving Credit Lender of any
obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower. 
 (d) The occurrence of any Revolving Credit Lender becoming a Defaulting
Lender shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligations to make such Loan or payment on such date but no such other Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Defaulting Lender to make a Loan or payment
required under this Agreement. 
 Section 2.3 Swing Loans 

(a) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swing Loan Lender may, in its sole discretion, make, in
Dollars, loans (each a “Swing Loan”) otherwise available to the Borrower under the Facility from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate
principal amount at any time outstanding (together with the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any other Loan made by the Swing Loan Lender hereunder in its capacity as a Lender or the Swing Loan Lender) not to exceed the Swing Loan Sublimit;
provided, however, that at no time shall the Swing Loan Lender make any Swing Loan to the extent that, after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Credit. Each Swing Loan
shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid in full within fifteen days after its making or, if sooner, upon any Borrowing hereunder and shall in any event mature no later than the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in
the first sentence of this clause (a), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause (a).

the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The Swing Loan Lender shall not otherwise be
required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the making of any Swing Loan.

 (c) The Swing Loan Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which writing may be a telecopy or electronic
mail) weekly, by no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day of each week, of the aggregate principal amount of its Swing Loans then outstanding. 
 (d) The Swing Loan Lender may demand at any time that each Revolving Credit Lender pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, in the manner provided in
clause (e) below, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans, which demand shall be made through the Administrative Agent, shall be in writing and shall specify the outstanding
principal amount of Swing Loans demanded to be paid. 
 (e) The Administrative Agent shall forward each notice referred to in
clause (c) above and each demand referred to in clause (d) above to each Revolving Credit Lender on the day such notice or such demand is received by the Administrative Agent (except that any such notice or demand received by
the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or any such demand received on a day that is not a Business Day shall not be required to be forwarded to the Revolving Credit Lenders by the Administrative Agent until
the next succeeding Business Day), together with a statement prepared by the Administrative Agent specifying the amount of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Loans stated to be
outstanding in such notice or demanded to be paid pursuant to such demand, and, notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) and 2.1 (The
Revolving Credit Commitments) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), each Revolving Credit Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Business Day next
succeeding the date of such Revolving Credit Lender’s receipt of such notice or demand, make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the amount specified in such
statement. Upon such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall, except as provided in clause (f) below, be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds
to repay the Swing Loans to the Swing Loan Lender. To the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower shall repay such Swing Loan on
demand.

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

Scheduled Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuer shall be under any obligation to Issue (and, upon the occurrence of any of the events described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and

prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital
requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the date of this Agreement or result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to such Issuer as of the date of this
Agreement and that such Issuer in good faith deems material to it;

the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Maximum Credit at such time;

of the Reimbursement Obligations at such time exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit; 
 (v) such Letter of Credit

ordinary course of its business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit. 
 None of the Lenders (other than
the Issuers in their capacity as such) shall have any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit. 
 (b) In no event shall the
expiration date of any Letter of Credit be (i) more than one year after the date of issuance thereof or (ii) less than five days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, unless consented to by the applicable Issuer in such
Issuer’s sole discretion; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term less than or equal to one year may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional periods less than or equal to one year, as long as, on
or before the expiration of each such term and each such period, each of the Borrower and the Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall have the option to prevent such automatic renewal. 

(c) In connection with the Issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall give the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent at

 (d) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this
Section 2.4, the relevant Issuer shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. No Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit in
the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from any Revolving Credit Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of
Credit) or clause (a) above (other than those conditions set forth in clauses (a)(i), (a)(vi)(B) and (C) above and, to the extent such clause relates to fees owing to the Issuer of such Letter of Credit
and its Affiliates, clause (a)(vi)(A) above) are not on such date satisfied or duly waived and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived. No Issuer shall otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the
conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) have been satisfied in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit. 

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

(f) Each Issuer shall comply with the following: 
 (i) give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing), which writing may be a telecopy or electronic mail, of the Issuance of any Letter of
Credit Issued by it, of all drawings under any Letter of Credit Issued by it and of the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by the Borrower of any Reimbursement Obligation when due (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit
by telecopy, electronic mail or similar transmission to each Lender); 
 (ii) upon the request of any Revolving
Credit Lender, furnish to such Revolving Credit Lender copies of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement to which such Issuer is a party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Revolving Credit Lender; and

 (iii) no later than 10 Business Days following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the
Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy to each Lender requesting the same) and the Borrower separate schedules for Documentary Letters of Credit and Standby Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the aggregate Letter of Credit Obligations, in each case outstanding at the end of each month, and any information requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent relating
thereto. 
 (g) Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of
this Agreement, such Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuer, without
recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such

 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion, in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto (including all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto)
and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto; provided, that in respect of each Revolving Credit Lender’s interest and participation in a Letter of Credit with an expiration date on or after the Revolving Credit Termination
Date, the interest and participation of each Revolving Credit Lender in such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been terminated on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. 
 (h) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued for its account no later than the
date that is the next succeeding Business Day after the Borrower receives written notice from such Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit (the “Reimbursement Date”), irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense
or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person. In the event that any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to
this clause (h) or any such payment by the Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on which such Reimbursement
Obligation arose to the Reimbursement Date, at the rate of interest applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (ii) from the Reimbursement Date until the date of repayment in full, at the rate of interest
applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans, and such Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such failure, and each Revolving Credit
Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such payment (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof if such payment was made in
any currency other than Dollars) in immediately available Dollars. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Revolving Credit Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall,
except during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) (Events of Default) and notwithstanding whether or not the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and
Letter of Credit) shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in the principal amount of such payment. Whenever any Issuer
receives from the Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuer shall
pay over to the Administrative Agent any amount received in excess of such Reimbursement Obligation and, upon receipt of such amount, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay over to each Revolving Credit Lender, in immediately available funds,
an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Revolving Credit Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation.

 (i) If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the payment
required by clause (h) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on demand any such unpaid

amount together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Rate and, thereafter, until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent
for the account of such Issuer, at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Facility. 
 (j)
The Borrower’s obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation and the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuers with respect to Letters of Credit shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the
following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any
term or provision therein; 
 (ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the
provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document; 
 (iii) the existence of any claim, set off, defense or
other right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any
Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction; 

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (v) payment by
the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and 
 (vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.4, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
 Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not
result in any liability of such Issuer to the Borrower or any Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be
in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such
Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and
whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any 

  
 43

AGREEMENT

respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or
invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever, and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be
deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer. 
 Section 2.5 Reduction and
Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments 
 The Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice
to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part ratably the unused portions of the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders; provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 
 Section 2.6
Repayment of Loans 
 The Borrower promises to repay the entire unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans and the
Swing Loans on the Scheduled Termination Date or earlier, if otherwise required by the terms hereof. 
 Section 2.7
Evidence of Debt 
 (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts
evidencing Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. In addition,
each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or having identified a Special Purpose Vehicle as such to the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and
maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a record of ownership in which such Lender shall register by book entry (i) the name and address of each such participant and Special Purpose Vehicle (and each
change thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise) and (ii) the rights, interest or obligation of each such participant and Special Purpose Vehicle in any Obligation, in any Revolving Credit Commitment and in any right to receive payment
hereunder. 
 (b) (i) The Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose and for
tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Administrative Agent agrees to register by book entry the
Administrative Agent’s, each Lender’s and each Issuer’s interest in each Loan, each Letter of Credit and each Reimbursement Obligation, and in the right to receive any payments hereunder and any assignment of any such interest or
rights. In addition, the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record
(i) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Issuers, (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Lender from time to time, (iii) the amount of each Loan made and, if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable
thereto, (iv) the amount of any drawn Letters of Credit, (v) the amount of any principal or interest due 

  
 44 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
and payable, and paid, by the Borrower to, or for the account of, each Lender hereunder, (vi) the amount that is due and payable, and paid, by the Borrower to, or for the account of, each
Issuer, including the amount of Letter Credit Obligations (specifying the amount of any Reimbursement Obligations) due and payable to an Issuer, and (vii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower,
whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender’s and Issuer’s, as the case may be, share thereof, if applicable.

 (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including the Revolving
Credit Notes evidencing such Loans) and the drawn Letters of Credit are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and the Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans or drawn Letters of Credit, as the case may be,
shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register. A Revolving Credit Note shall only evidence the Lender’s or a registered assignee’s right, title and interest in and to the related Loan, and in no event is any
such Revolving Credit Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. This Section 2.7(b) and Section 11.2 (Assignments and Participations) shall be construed so that the Loans and drawn Letters of Credit are at all times
maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any successor provisions of the Code or such regulations). 

(c) The entries made in the Register and in the accounts therein maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above
shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to
maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms. In addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or as an Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or Issuer shall be available for inspection by
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the event that any Revolving Credit Lender requests that the Borrower execute and deliver a promissory note or notes payable to such Revolving
Credit Lender in order to evidence the Indebtedness owing to such Revolving Credit Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver a Revolving Credit Note or Revolving Credit Notes to such Revolving Credit Lender
evidencing the Revolving Loans of such Revolving Credit Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (Form of Revolving Credit Note). 
 Section 2.8 Optional Prepayments 
 The Borrower may prepay the
outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans in whole or in part at any time; provided, however, that if any prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan is made by the Borrower other than on the last day of an
Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrower shall also pay any amount owing pursuant to Section 2.14(e) (Breakage Costs).

 Section 2.9 Mandatory Prepayments 

(a) Upon receipt by any Group Member of Net Cash Proceeds arising from an Asset Sale of any Collateral, the Borrower shall immediately
prepay the Loans (or provide cash collateral in respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds. Any such mandatory prepayment shall be applied in accordance with clause (b) below. 

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.13(g) (Payments and Computations), any prepayments made by the Borrower required
to be applied in accordance with this clause (b) shall be applied as follows: first, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Loans until such Swing Loans shall have been repaid in full; second, to repay the
outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans until such Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full; and then, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations in
an amount equal to 105% of such Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner
set forth therein. 
 (c) If at any time, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Outstandings exceeds the aggregate
Maximum Credit at such time, the Borrower shall forthwith prepay the Swing Loans first and then the Revolving Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding
Swing Loans and Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit) in an amount equal to 105% of such excess.

 (d) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct, during a Liquidity Event Period, the application of all funds
in the Cash Collateral Account and agrees that the Administrative Agent may and, upon the written direction of the Requisite Lenders given at any time during such Liquidity Event Period, shall (i) deliver a Blockage Notice to each Deposit
Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and (ii) except, as provided in Section 2.13(g) (Payments and Computations) and clause (b) above, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all available funds in the Cash Collateral Account on a daily basis as follows: first, to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Loans until such Swing Loans have been repaid
in full; second, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans until such Revolving Loans shall have been repaid in full; and then to any other Obligation then due and payable. The Administrative Agent agrees to
apply such funds and the Borrower consents to such application. If (i) following such application, (ii) outside of a Liquidity Event Period or (iii) after all Letters of Credit shall have expired or be fully drawn and all Revolving
Credit Commitments shall have been terminated, there are no Loans outstanding and no other Obligations that are then due and payable (and, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, cash collateral has been provided in an amount
equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner required in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit)), then the Administrative Agent shall cause any remaining funds in the Cash Collateral Account to be paid
at the written direction of the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the Borrower or another Person lawfully entitled thereto).

 (e) At any time during a Liquidity Event Period, subject to Section 2.9(d)
all amounts collected in the Concentration Account pursuant to Section 7.11 (Cash Management) shall be applied on each Business Day by the Administrative Agent first, to prepay the Loans (including Swing Loans) and then, if an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of such Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of
Letters of Credit) until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth therein. Following such application, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Section 2.9(d) cause any
remaining funds in the Concentration Account to be paid at the written direction of the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the Borrower or another Person lawfully entitled thereto). 

Section 2.10 Interest 
 (a) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations (other than pursuant to Hedging Contracts or Cash Management Obligations that are Loan Documents, to the extent
such Hedging Contracts or Cash Management Obligations, as applicable, provide for the accrual of interest on unpaid obligations) shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and,
in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, as follows: 

(i) if a Base Rate Loan or such other Obligation, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate as in
effect from time to time and (B) the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans; and 

(ii) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate determined for the
applicable Interest Period and (B) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time during such Eurodollar Interest Period. 
 (b) Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Base Rate Loan (other than Swing Loans) shall be payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing
on the first such day following the making of such Base Rate Loan and (B) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Base Rate Loan, (ii) interest accrued on Swing Loans shall be payable in
arrears on the first Business Day of the immediately succeeding calendar month, (iii) interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such Loan and, if
such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each date during such Interest Period occurring every three months from the first day of such Interest Period, (B) upon the payment or prepayment thereof in full or in part and
(C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurodollar Rate Loan and (iv) interest accrued on the amount of all other Obligations shall be payable on demand from and after the time such
Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise). 
 (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the
rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere herein, upon (i) the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 9.1(a), (b), or (f) (Events of Default) and (ii) the election of the
Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (in their sole discretion) with respect to any other Event of Default (and following written notice thereof to the Borrower) and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, the
principal balance of all Loans and the amount of all other Obligations then due and payable shall, commencing, in the case of clause (i) above, on the date when the applicable Event of Default first occurred and, in the case of clause
(ii) above, on the

date of delivery of the written notice as provided therein, bear interest at a rate that is two percent per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable to such Loans or other Obligations
from time to time. Such interest shall be payable on the date that would otherwise be applicable to such interest pursuant to clause (b) above or otherwise on demand. 

Section 2.11 Conversion/Continuation Option 
 (a) The Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day, to convert Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Loans) or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) at the end of any
applicable Interest Period, to convert Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the
aggregate amount of the Eurodollar Loans for each Interest Period must be in the amount of at least $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each
Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F (Form of Notice of Conversion or Continuation) (a “Notice of
Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior written notice specifying (A) the amount and type of Loan being converted or continued, (B) in the case of
a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of such conversion. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall give to each Lender a notice by not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date a Notice of Conversion or Continuation has been delivered to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(a) above of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Notice of Conversion or Continuation and of the options selected therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no conversion in whole or in
part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans having an Interest Period of longer than one month shall be permitted at any time prior to the Syndication Completion Date and (ii) no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to
Eurodollar Rate Loans and no continuation in whole or in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration of any applicable Interest Period shall be permitted at any time at which (A) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or (B) the continuation of, or conversion into, a Eurodollar Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans). If, within the time period required under the terms
of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Eurodollar Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or to
convert any such Loans, then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable. 

Section 2.12 Fees 
 (a) Unused Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay in immediately available Dollars to each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit
Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender exceeds such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans and (ii) the outstanding amount of the aggregate Letter
of Credit Obligations (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) from the date hereof through the Revolving Credit Termination Date at the Unused Commitment Fee Rate, payable in arrears (x) on the first Business Day of each calendar
quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the Effective Date and (b) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

 (b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with
respect to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer: 
 (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Issuer of a Letter of Credit, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, an issuance fee equal to 0.125% per annum (or such lesser rate as agreed between the Borrower and such Issuer) of the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum
undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable in arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving
Credit Termination Date; 
 (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit
Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit, a fee accruing in Dollars at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans on the maximum undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit, payable in
arrears (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter, commencing on the first such Business Day following the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, however,
that during the continuance of an Event of Default (to the extent that additional interest accrues on the Loans or other Obligations pursuant to Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest)), such fee shall be increased by two percent per annum
(instead of, and not in addition to, any increase pursuant to Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest)) and shall be payable on demand; and 
 (iii) to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance
with such Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be. 
 (c) Defaulting Lender Fees. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any
fees accruing during such period pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided, that (i) to the extent that
a Ratable Portion of the Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans of such Defaulting Lender has been reallocated in accordance with Section 2.19(a)(i) (Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitments) to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, the
fee accruing during such period pursuant to clause (b) above will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, and
(ii) to the extent any portion of such Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans cannot be so reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lender
as their interests appear (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.13 (Payments and Computations) will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.12(c)).

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

Section 2.13 Payments and Computations 
 (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees and expenses) not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due, in the currency specified herein (or, if no such
currency is specified, in Dollars) to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter
cause to be distributed immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments set forth in clause (f) or (g) below, as applicable,
for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices; provided, however, that amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), Section 2.16 (Taxes) or Section 2.14(c) or
(d) (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans) shall be paid only to the affected Lender or Lenders and amounts payable with respect to Swing Loans shall be paid only to the Swing Loan Lender. Payments received by the
Administrative Agent after 11:00 a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. 
 (b) All
computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of interest accruing at the Base Rate, 365 days or 366 days, as applicable), in each case for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of a rate of interest hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Each payment by the Borrower of any Loan, Reimbursement Obligation (including interest
or fees in respect thereof) and each reimbursement of various costs, expenses or other Obligation shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, such Letter of Credit issued or such cost, expense or other Obligation was incurred;
provided, however, that (i) the Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement for a Letter of Credit may specify another currency for the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) other than for
payments in respect of a Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, Loan Documents duly executed by the Administrative Agent or any Hedging Contract may specify other currencies of payment for Obligations created by or directly related to such Loan Document
or Hedging Contract. 
 (d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due
date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if
such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All repayments of any Revolving Loans shall be
applied as follows: first, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, with those Eurodollar Rate Loans having earlier expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods
being repaid prior to those having later expiring Eurodollar Interest Periods.

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

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

  
 51

 (iv) fourth, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any
fees then due to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers; 
 (v) fifth, to pay
interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations; 
 (vi) sixth,
to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to provide cash collateral for outstanding Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts in the manner described in Section 9.3 (Actions in Respect of Letters of
Credit),and to pay the Qualified Eligible Obligations, ratably to the aggregate principal amount of such Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts, Cash Management Obligations, and Obligations owing with respect to
Hedging Contracts constituting Qualified Eligible Obligations; 
 (vii) seventh, to the ratable
payment of all other Secured Obligations (excluding the Last-Out Eligible Obligations); and 
 (viii)
eighth, to pay the Last-Out Eligible Obligations; 
 provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available
to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Secured Obligation described in any of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) above the available funds being applied
with respect to any such Secured Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Secured Obligation ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s or
Issuer’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Secured Obligations described in such clauses; provided, however, that payments that would otherwise be allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be allocated first to
repay Protective Advances and Swing Loans pro rata until such Protective Advances and Swing Loans are paid in full and then to repay the Revolving Loans. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii),
(iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) above may at any time and from time to time be changed by the agreement of the Super-Majority Lenders without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by the Borrower,
any Secured Party that is not a Lender or Issuer or by any other Person that is not a Lender or Issuer. The order of priority set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above may be changed only with
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in addition to that of the Super-Majority Lenders. 
 (h) At the option of
the Administrative Agent, principal on the Swing Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances may be paid from the proceeds of Swing Loans or
Revolving Loans. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Swing Loan Lender to make such Swing Loans pursuant to Section 2.3(a) (Swing Loans) and the Revolving Credit Lenders to make such Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(a)
(Borrowing Procedures) from time to time in the amounts of any and all principal payable with respect to the Swing Loans, Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective
Advances, and further authorizes the Administrative Agent to give the Lenders notice of any Borrowing with respect to such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans to pay such amounts.
The Borrower agrees that all such Swing Loans and Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of
Credit), which conditions the Lenders irrevocably waive) and directs that all proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts.

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

(j) In the event that any Borrowing Base Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.9(a) (Borrowing Base Determination) for
any period (an “Applicable Period”) is determined to be inaccurate in any material respect, then (i) the Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected and accurate Borrowing Base Certificate as
required by Section 6.9(a) (Borrowing Base Determination) for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin (including for the purposes of Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) and Unused Commitment Fee Rate
for the relevant Applicable Period shall equal the Applicable Margin and Unused Commitment Fee Rate calculated based upon such corrected Borrowing Base Certificate, and (iii) the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the
amount, if any, by which (x) the amount of accrued interest, Unused Commitment Fees and fees due pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) for such Applicable Period, determined based on such corrected Borrowing Base
Certificate, exceeds (y) the amount of interest, Unused Commitment Fee and fees due pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(ii) (Letter of Credit Fees) paid to the Lenders for such Applicable Period. Nothing in this Section 2.13(j)
shall limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under Section 2.10(c) (Default Interest) or Article IX (Events of Default). 
 Section 2.14 Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans 

(a) Determination of Interest Rate 
 The Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Eurodollar
Rate.” The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be correct absent manifest error and shall be binding on the Borrower. 
 (b) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair 
 In the event that
(i) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to be fixed or (ii) the Requisite Lenders
notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the Revolving Credit Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall
forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders, whereupon each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a Base Rate Loan and the obligations of the Revolving


  
 53 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Credit Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the
Requisite Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist. 
 (c) Increased Costs

 If at any time any Revolving Credit Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of,
any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in determining the Eurodollar Rate) or the compliance by such Revolving Credit Lender with any
guideline, request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such Revolving Credit Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Revolving Credit Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving
Credit Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Revolving Credit Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the amount so determined,
submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Revolving Credit Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to Eurocurrency Liabilities, or under any similar or successor regulation with respect
Eurocurrency Liabilities or Eurocurrency funding, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Rate Loan, provided, however, the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’
prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a request to be paid such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional interest shall be due and
payable 10 days from receipt of such notice. 
 (d) Illegality 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Revolving Credit Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change
in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any
Revolving Credit Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Revolving Credit Lender to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Revolving Credit Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, and each such Revolving Credit Lender shall make
a Base Rate Loan as part of any requested Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan. If, at any time after
a Revolving Credit Lender gives notice under this clause (d), such Revolving Credit Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Revolving Credit Lender shall


  
 54 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
promptly give notice of that determination to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. The Borrower’s
right to request, and such Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored. 
 (e) Breakage Costs 
 In addition to all amounts required to be paid by the
Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10 (Interest), the Borrower shall compensate each Revolving Credit Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Revolving Credit Lender to fund or maintain such Revolving Credit Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans)
that such Revolving Credit Lender may sustain (i) if for any reason (other than solely by reason of such Lender being a Defaulting Lender) a proposed Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur on a date
specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive Interest Period does not commence after notice
therefor is given pursuant to Section 2.11 (Conversion/Continuation Option), (ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid (including mandatorily pursuant to Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments)) on a date
that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in clause (d) above or (iv) as
a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof. The Revolving Credit Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written
statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the amount so determined as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such Revolving Credit Lender, absent
manifest error. 
 Section 2.15 Capital Adequacy 

If at any time any Lender determines that (a) the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this Agreement regarding capital adequacy, (b) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule, regulation or order or (c) compliance with any guideline or request or directive from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s (or any corporation controlling such Lender’s) capital as a consequence of its
obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by
such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error.

 Section 2.16 Taxes 

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.16, any and all payments by any Loan Party under each Loan Document shall
be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender, each Issuer and
the Administrative Agent (A) taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, and similar taxes imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender, such Issuer or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or in which such Lender’s, Issuer’s, or Administrative Agent’s principal office is located or in which such Lender’s, Issuer’s, or Administrative Agent’s Applicable
Lending Office is located, (B) any U.S. withholding taxes payable with respect to payments to a Non-U.S. Lender under the Loan Documents under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the Effective Date (or, in the case
of (x) an Eligible Assignee, the date of the Assignment and Acceptance, (y) a successor Administrative Agent, the date of the appointment of such Administrative Agent, and (z) a successor Issuer, the date such Issuer becomes an
Issuer) applicable to such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, but not excluding any U.S. withholding taxes payable as a result of any change in such laws, or any change in the circumstances of such Lender, such
Issuer or the Administrative Agent, occurring after the Effective Date (or the date of such Assignment and Acceptance or the date of such appointment of such Administrative Agent or the date such Issuer becomes an Issuer) so long as such Non-U.S.
Lender has complied with Section 2.16(f) hereof, (C) any U.S. backup withholding tax payable with respect to any payment to a U.S. Lender under the Loan Documents due to (x) notified payee underreporting of reportable interest
or dividend payments or other reportable payments or (y) the IRS notifying the Administrative Agent or the Borrower that the furnished taxpayer identification number is incorrect, (D) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States,
and (E) any tax imposed as a result of the failure of any Lender, Issuer or Administrative Agent to comply with the requirements of Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) in the case
of each Lender or each Issuer, taxes measured by its net income and franchise taxes imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or such Issuer (as the case may be) and the jurisdiction of the Governmental
Authority imposing such tax or any taxing authority thereof or therein (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Taxes shall be
required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Lender, any Issuer or the Administrative Agent (w) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all required
deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no
such deductions been made, (x) the relevant Loan Party shall make such deductions, (y) the relevant Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and
(z) the relevant Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence of such payment. 
 (b) In addition, each
Loan Party agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document

(collectively, “Other Taxes”). Each Loan Party authorizes the Administrative Agent to pay such Other Taxes in the name of such Loan Party and, for such purpose, to submit a
Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans in the currency such Other Taxes are owed (or, if not available, in Dollars) (i) after the occurrence of any Event of Default and in respect of any event occurring on the Effective Date and
(ii) otherwise, with the consent of such Loan Party, in the name of the Loan Party owing such Other Taxes and in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed all amounts owing in respect of such Other Taxes. If such a Notice of Borrowing is
prepared by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowing corresponding thereto shall be made without regard to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 (Conditions Precedent to Each Loan and Letter of Credit) and the proceeds thereof
shall be disbursed to the Administrative Agent in the name of the Borrower and shall be used by the Administrative Agent solely to pay such Other Taxes (any excess thereof to be used to repay such Borrowing). The Administrative Agent may also make
Swing Loans and Protective Advances to pay such Other Taxes in the name of such Loan Party and may pay such Other Taxes and seek separate reimbursement of such Other Taxes hereunder as a Secured Obligation. 

(c) Each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Lender, each Issuer and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of
Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.16) paid by such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability
(including for penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender,
such Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 
 (d) Within 30 days after the date
of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing
payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Without prejudice to
the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party hereunder or under the Guaranty, the agreements and obligations of such Loan Party contained in this Section 2.16 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations. 

(f) Each Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax, or that is subject to such tax at a reduced rate
under an applicable tax treaty, shall (v) on or prior to the Effective Date in the case of each Non-U.S. Lender that is a signatory hereto, (w) on or prior to the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Non-U.S. Lender
becomes a Lender, on or prior to the date a successor Issuer becomes an Issuer or on or prior to the date a successor Administrative Agent becomes the Administrative Agent, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification
expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and (z) from time to time thereafter if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable:

 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 (i) (A) Form W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax
because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business) or any successor form, (B) Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty) or any successor form, (C) in
the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form or (D) any other
applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to such Non-U.S. Lender’s entitlement to such exemption from U.S. withholding tax or reduced rate with respect to any payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender under
the Loan Documents. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender are not subject to U.S. withholding tax or
are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory
rate. 
 (ii) Each U.S. Lender shall (v) on or prior to the Effective Date in the case of each U.S. Lender
that is a signatory hereto, (w) on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such U.S. Lender becomes a Lender, on or prior to the date a successor Issuer becomes an Issuer or on or prior to the date a successor Administrative
Agent becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or
certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two completed
originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax) or any successor form. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.16(f), a U.S. Lender shall not include a Lender, an Issuer
or an Administrative Agent that may be treated as an exempt recipient based on the indicators described in Treasury Regulation section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii). 
 (g) Any Revolving Credit Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements
of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the
sole determination of such Revolving Credit Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Revolving Credit Lender. 

Section 2.17 Substitution of Lenders 
 (a) In the event that (i) any Revolving Credit Lender makes a claim under Section 2.14(c) (Increased Costs) or 2.15 (Capital Adequacy), (ii) it becomes illegal for any
Revolving Credit Lender to continue to fund or make any Eurodollar Rate Loan and such Revolving Credit Lender notifies the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(d) (Illegality), (iii) any Loan Party is required to make any payment
pursuant to Section 2.16 (Taxes) that is attributable to a particular Revolving Credit Lender or (iv) any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may
substitute any Lender and, if reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, any other Eligible Assignee (a “Substitute Institution”) for such Affected Lender hereunder, after delivery of a written notice (a
“Substitution Notice”) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender within a reasonable time (in any case not to exceed 90 days) following the occurrence of any of


  
 58 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
the events described in clauses (i) through (iv) above that the Borrower intends to make such substitution; provided, however, that, if more than one Lender
claims increased costs, illegality or right to payment arising from the same act or condition and such claims are received by the Borrower within 30 days of each other, then the Borrower may substitute all, but not (except to the extent the Borrower
has already substituted one of such Affected Lenders before the Borrower’s receipt of the other Affected Lenders’ claim) less than all, Lenders making such claims. 
 (b) If the Substitution Notice was properly issued under this Section 2.17, the Affected Lender shall sell, and the Substitute Institution shall purchase, all rights and claims of such
Affected Lender under the Loan Documents, and the Substitute Institution shall assume, and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of, the Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments and all other prior unperformed obligations of the Affected
Lender under the Loan Documents (other than in respect of any damages(which, pursuant to Section 11.5 (Limitation of Liability), do not include exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable law) in respect of any
such unperformed obligations). Such purchase and sale (and the corresponding assignment of all rights and claims hereunder) shall be recorded in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent and shall be effective on (and not earlier than) the
later of (i) the receipt by the Affected Lender of its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Credit Outstandings, together with any other Obligations owing to it, (ii) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of an agreement in form and
substance satisfactory to it and the Borrower whereby the Substitute Institution shall agree to be bound by the terms hereof and (iii) the payment in full to the Affected Lender in cash of all fees, unreimbursed costs and expenses and
indemnities accrued and unpaid through such effective date. Upon the effectiveness of such sale, purchase and assumption, the Substitute Institution shall become a “Lender” hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement having a
Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount of such Affected Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment assumed by it and such Revolving Credit Commitment of the Affected Lender shall be terminated; provided, however, that all indemnities
under the Loan Documents shall continue in favor of such Affected Lender. 
 (c) Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees that, if it
becomes an Affected Lender and its rights and claims are assigned hereunder to a Substitute Institution pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance to evidence such
assignment, together with any Revolving Credit Note (if such Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note) evidencing the Loans subject to such Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however, that the failure of any Affected Lender to
execute an Assignment and Acceptance shall not render such assignment invalid. 
 Section 2.18 Incremental Facility

 (a) The Borrower may from time to time after the Effective Date request one or more increases in the Revolving Credit
Commitments (each, a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”); provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit Commitment Increases shall not exceed $200,000,000, (ii) no Revolving
Credit Commitment Increases shall be requested later than six months prior to the Scheduled Termination Date and (iii) each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an amount not less than $25,000,000. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to obligate the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any Lender to negotiate for, solicit, provide or commit to provide any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. Following the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s
request to obtain a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each 

  
 59 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Lender of such proposed Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and of the proposed terms and conditions therefor as provided in the Borrower’s notice with respect thereto. Each such Lender
(and each of their Affiliates and Approved Funds) may, in its sole discretion, commit to participate in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increases by forwarding its commitment therefor to the Administrative Agent in form and substance satisfactory
to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall allocate the commitment under such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase among the Lenders and other Eligible Assignees from which the Administrative Agent has received
written commitments with respect thereto. Each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall become effective on a date agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Credit Extension Date”), which shall be
in any case on or after the date of satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.4 (Conditions Precedent to Each Incremental Credit Extension Date). The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders and the Borrower,
on or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following an Incremental Credit Extension Date of the effectiveness of a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and shall record in the Register all applicable additional information in
respect of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. 
 (b) (i) The commitments under each Revolving Credit Commitment
Increase shall be deemed for all purposes part of the Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) each Lender or Eligible Assignee participating in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall become a Revolving Credit Lender with respect to the
Revolving Credit Commitments and all matters relating thereto and (iii) the commitments under each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall have the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Commitments. On the Incremental Credit
Extension Date for any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, each Lender or Eligible Assignee participating in such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall purchase and assume from each existing Revolving Credit Lender having Revolving Loans and
participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on such Incremental Credit Extension Date, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the new
Revolving Credit Commitments (after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase), in the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans, so as to ensure that, on the Incremental Credit
Extension Date after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, each Revolving Lender is owed only its Ratable Portion of the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans outstanding on such Incremental
Credit Extension Date. 
 Section 2.19 Defaulting Lender. 

(a) Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitments. If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the
following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans: 
 (i) in the case of each Defaulting Lender, the Ratable Portion of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any such outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans will, subject to the
limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the date such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with such
Non-Defaulting Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall be continuing at the time of such reallocation, (B) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Ratable


  
 60 










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Portion of the Revolving Credit Outstandings may not in any event exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and
(C) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuer, any Swing Loan Lender or any other Lender may have
against such Defaulting Lender, or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; 
 (ii) in the
case of each Defaulting Lender, to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Ratable Portion of such Defaulting Lender with respect to any such outstanding and future Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing
Loans cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than 5 Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Issuer and/or
the Swing Loan Lender, as the case may be), (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuer and the Swing Loan Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans, or (B) in the case of Swing Loans,
prepay (subject to clause (iii) below) and/or Cash Collateralize in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (C) make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to the Issuer and the Swing Loan
Lender, as the case may be, in their reasonable discretion, to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and 
 (iii) in the case of each Defaulting Lender, any amount paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity
payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated, non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.12(c) (Defaulting Lender
Fees)) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and payment in full of all the Obligations and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the
following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing
Lender or any Swing Loan Lender (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other
than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in
accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and Letter of Credit Reimbursement Obligations then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts
thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and seventh after the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and payment in full of all
the Obligations, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 (b) Right to Give Drawdown Notices. In furtherance of the foregoing, if any
Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and the Borrower fails to Cash Collateralize or prepay its obligations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans within 5 Business Days after demand by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 2.19(a)(ii) (Defaulting Lender), any Issuer or Swing Loan Lender is hereby authorized by the Borrower (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion,
through the Administrative Agent, Notices of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.2 (Borrowing Procedures) in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) pay matured Reimbursement Obligations, (ii) repay an outstanding
Swing Loan, and/or (iii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of Letters of Credit Obligations or Swing Loans in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such
Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swing Loan. 
 (c) Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitments.
The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions
of Section 2.13 (Payments and Computations) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other
amounts); provided, that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuer, the Swing Loan Lenders or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

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

thereon and all other amounts and Obligations payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without

 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender to make Loans and the commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender and Issuer to Issue or participate in Letters of Credit shall each automatically be
terminated and (y) the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts and Obligations shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by
the Borrower. In addition to the remedies set forth above, the Administrative Agent may exercise any remedies provided for by the Collateral Documents in accordance with the terms thereof or any other remedies provided by applicable law.

funds on deposit in Cash Collateral Accounts shall be less than 105% of the Letter of Credit Obligations, (iii) as may be required by Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s office referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.), for deposit in a Cash Collateral Account, (x) in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the
amount required to that, after such payment, the aggregate funds on deposit in the Cash Collateral Accounts equals or exceeds 105% of the sum of all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations and (y) in the case of clause (iii) above,
the amount required by Section 2.9 (Mandatory Prepayments). The Administrative Agent may, from time to time after funds are deposited in any Cash Collateral Account, apply funds then held in such Cash Collateral Account to the payment of

of the Letter of Credit Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give written notice of any such application; provided, however, that the failure to give such written notice shall not invalidate any such application.

 Section 9.4 Rescission 
 If at any time after termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Borrower shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal
of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified herein) and all Events of Default and
Defaults (other than non-payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 11.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.), then upon the written
consent of the Requisite Lenders and written notice to the Borrower, the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled; provided, however, that such action
shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the Issuers to a decision that may be made at the
election of the Requisite Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit the Borrower and do not give the Borrower the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are
met.

 (b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured
with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved
Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuers and each Group Member acknowledges and
agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by
such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders, the Issuers, and each Group Member hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic
Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. 
 (c)
THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE
PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS,
DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (THE “AGENT AFFILIATES”)
WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC
COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS
LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND
THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED
OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS

generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies. 
 Section 10.4 The Administrative Agent
Individually 
 With respect to its Ratable Portion, Citi shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers
hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders”, “Revolving Credit Lenders”, “Requisite Lenders” and
any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include, without limitation, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, a Revolving Credit Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. Citi and its
Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, any Loan Party as if Citi were not acting as the Administrative Agent. 

Section 10.5 Lender Credit Decision

 101










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
connection with the making and continuance of the Loans and with the issuance of the Letters of Credit. Each Lender and each Issuer also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and other
Loan Documents. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or the Issuers, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any
Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any Affiliate thereof or any employee or agent of any of the foregoing. 
 Section 10.6
Indemnification 
 Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each of its Affiliates,
and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from and against such Revolving Credit Lender’s aggregate Ratable Portion of any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted
against, the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Revolving Credit Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s or such Affiliate’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery,
administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, to the extent
that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or another Loan Party. 

Section 10.7 Successor Administrative Agent 
 (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a
successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of
resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, selected from among the Lenders. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the
Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative
Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring 

  
 102










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent
under the Loan Documents. After such resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this Article X as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (b) In addition to the foregoing, if a Revolving Lender becomes, and during the
period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, and the Borrower shall not have satisfied its obligations set forth in Section 2.19 (Defaulting Lender), the Issuer and/or the Swing Loan Lender may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, resign as Issuer or Swing Loan Lender, respectively, effective at the close of business New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than 30 days after the date of such notice);
provided that such resignation by the Issuer will have no effect on the validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit then outstanding or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such
outstanding Letter of Credit or otherwise to the Issuer; and provided further, that such resignation by the Swing Loan Lender will have no effect on its rights in respect of any outstanding Swing Loans or on the obligations of the Borrower or
any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Swing Loan. 
 Section 10.8 Concerning the
Collateral and the Collateral Documents 
 (a) Each Lender and each Issuer agrees that any action taken by the
Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by
the Administrative Agent or the Requisite Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon
all of the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the
Lenders and the Issuers with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection herewith and with the Collateral Documents, (ii) execute and deliver each Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by any
Group Member, (iii) act as collateral agent for the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein,
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender and Issuer to act as collateral sub-agent for the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers for purposes of the perfection of
all security interests and Liens with respect to the Collateral, including any Deposit Accounts maintained by a Loan Party with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, such Lender or such Issuer, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with
the Collateral, including the making of Protective Advances in an aggregate amount not to exceed the lesser of $25,000,000 and the aggregate amount of the unused Revolving Credit Commitments (unless, in the case of Protective Advances, the
Administrative Agent has been instructed by the Requisite Lenders not to make Protective Advances), (v) take such action as is necessary or 

  
 103










 AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT
AGREEMENT 
 TENET HEALTHCARE CORPORATION 

 

 
desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents and (vi) except as may be otherwise
specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuers and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents
relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise. 
 (b) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby consents to the release and
hereby directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, release or subordinate) any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders and the
Issuers against any of the following: 
 (i) all of the Collateral and all Loan Parties, upon termination of the
Revolving Credit Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, all Reimbursement Obligations and all other Obligations that the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable (and, in respect of
contingent Letter of Credit Obligations, with respect to which cash collateral has been deposited or a back-up letter of credit has been issued, in either case in the appropriate currency and on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the
applicable Issuers); 
 (ii) any assets that are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(d) or
(e) (Liens, Etc.); 
 (iii) any part of the Collateral sold or disposed of by a Loan Party if such
sale or disposition is permitted by this Agreement (or permitted pursuant to a waiver of or consent to a transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement); and 

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

Any Loan Party that is subsequently designated as an Excluded Subsidiary, or is otherwise disposed of, if such disposition is permitted by this
Agreement, shall be automatically released from any of its obligations under the Guaranty, Security Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party, unless either immediately before or after giving effect to such release a Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs the Administrative Agent to execute and
deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and do such other things as are necessary to release Liens, or otherwise evidence the release of obligations, to be released pursuant to this Section 10.8 promptly upon the
effectiveness of any such release. 
 (c) Any guarantor of the Existing Credit Agreement that is not party to the Guaranty and
is listed on either Schedule 1.1(a) (Excluded Subsidiaries) or Schedule 4.3(c) (Liquidated Existing Loan Parties) is hereby released from the Guaranty (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and shall have no surviving
obligations thereunder, (ii) is hereby released from the Security Agreement (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and all liens or security granted by such guarantor thereunder or otherwise are hereby terminated.

obtained (any such Revolving Credit Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 11.1 being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, as
long as the Revolving Credit Lender acting as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at the Borrower’s request, any Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Administrative Agent shall have the right with the Administrative
Agent’s consent and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non-Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s

to the Administrative Agent any Revolving Credit Note (if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note) subject to such Assignment and Acceptance; provided, however, that the failure of

permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account

Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the

 (a) Each Revolving
Credit Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans and

same percentage of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving

with respect to such assignment) shall in no event (if less than the assignor’s entire interest) be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, except, in either case, (A) with the consent of the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent or (B) if such assignment is being made to a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such Lender and (iii) if such Eligible Assignee is not, prior to the date of such assignment, a Lender or an Affiliate or
Approved Fund of a Lender, such assignment shall be subject to the prior consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that the Borrower
shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days of having received notice thereof; and provided, further, that,
notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 11.2, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any assignment occurring when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(b) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the
Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Revolving Credit Note (if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note) subject to such assignment. Upon the execution, delivery, acceptance and
recording in the Register of any Assignment and Acceptance and, other than in respect of assignments made pursuant to Section 2.17 (Substitution of Lenders) and Section 11.1(c) (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.), the receipt by the
Administrative Agent from the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that
rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender and, if such Revolving Credit Lender were an Issuer, of such
Issuer hereunder and thereunder, (ii) the Revolving Credit Notes (if any) corresponding to the Loans assigned thereby shall be transferred to such assignee by notation in the Register and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent
that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations
under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Revolving Credit Lender’s
rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Revolving Credit Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 
 (c) The
Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.8 (Notices, Etc.) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in the Register the names and addresses of the
Lenders and Issuers and the principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to each Lender from time to time and the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Lender. Any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall not be
effective until such assignment is recorded in the Register. 
 (d) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by
an assigning Revolving Credit Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record or cause to be recorded the information
contained therein in the Register and (iii) give

the Administrative Agent, new Revolving Credit Notes to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning Revolving Credit Lender has
surrendered any Revolving Credit Note for exchange in connection with the assignment and has retained Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder, new Revolving Credit Notes to the order of the assigning Revolving Credit Lender in an amount equal to the
Revolving Credit Commitments retained by it hereunder. Such new Revolving Credit Notes shall be dated the same date as the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes and be in substantially the form of Exhibit B (Form of Revolving Credit Note).

 (e) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Revolving Credit Lender may do
each of the following: 
 (i) grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to make all or any part of any Loan
that such Revolving Credit Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to the extent that such Loans are
made) the obligation of such Revolving Credit Lender to make such Loans thereunder, provided, however, that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special Purpose Vehicle to make Loans
hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an option, and then only in accordance with the relevant
option agreement) and (y) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain responsible to the other parties for the performance of its obligations under the terms of this Agreement and
shall remain the holder of the Obligations for all purposes hereunder; and 
 (ii) assign, as collateral or
otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) without notice to or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower,
any Federal Reserve Bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board) and (B) without consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, (1) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of, the holders of such Revolving Credit
Lender’s Securities and (2) any Special Purpose Vehicle to which such Revolving Credit Lender has granted an option pursuant to clause (i) above; 
 provided, however, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Revolving Credit Lender from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in clause (i)
above and except, in the case of a subsequent foreclosure pursuant to an assignment as collateral, if such foreclosure is made in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 11.2 other than this clause (e) or
clause (f) below. Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, such
party shall not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to this clause (e) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation
proceeding (such agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations). The terms of the designation of, or assignment to, such Special Purpose Vehicle shall not restrict such Lender’s

ability to, or grant such Special Purpose Vehicle the right to, consent to any amendment or waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to the departure by the Borrower from any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of such Special Purpose Vehicle except, as long as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured Parties shall continue to, and shall be entitled to
continue to, deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement, to the extent any such consent would reduce the principal amount of, or the rate of interest on, any Obligations, amend
this clause (e) or postpone any scheduled date of payment of such principal or interest. Each Special Purpose Vehicle shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) and 2.16 (Taxes) and of
Section 2.14(d) (Illegality) as if it were such Lender; provided, however, that anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall, at any time, be obligated to make under Section 2.15 (Capital
Adequacy), 2.16 (Taxes) or 2.14(d) (Illegality) to any such Special Purpose Vehicle and any such Lender any payment in excess of the amount the Borrower would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect of such interest if
such Special Purpose Vehicle had not been assigned the rights of such Lender hereunder; and provided, further, that such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have no direct right to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement against the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. 
 (f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons in or
to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit). The terms of such participation shall not, in any event, require the
participant’s consent to any amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or refraining from exercising any powers or rights
such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce the obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other modification or consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone
any date fixed for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such participant under the Loan Documents, to which such participant would otherwise be entitled under such participation or (ii) result in the release of all or
substantially all of the Collateral other than in accordance with Section 10.8(b) (Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents). In the event of the sale of any participation by any Lender, (w) such Lender’s
obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties for the performance of such obligations, (y) such Lender shall remain the holder of such Obligations for all
purposes of this Agreement and (z) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

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

out of any investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its directors, security holders or creditors or any such Indemnitee, director, security
holder or creditor is a party thereto, whether direct, indirect, or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or local law or other statutory regulation, securities or commercial law or regulation, or under common law or in equity, or on

the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit or in connection with any investigation of any potential matter covered hereby (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however,
that the Borrower shall not have any liability under this Section 11.4 to an Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter that has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee, as determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” include (i) all Environmental Liabilities and Costs arising from or connected with the

litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, in each case contemplated in clause (a) above, and the Borrower, in any event, may participate in the defense thereof with legal counsel of the Borrower’s choice. In the event
that such Indemnitee requests the Borrower to defend against such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, the Borrower shall promptly do so and such Indemnitee shall have the right to have legal counsel of its choice
participate in such defense. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by such Indemnitee in defending against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial Action, shall vitiate or in any way impair the Borrower’s

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

 Section 11.6 Right of Set-off 

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and so long as the Requisite Lenders have requested that the
Administrative Agent declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 9.2, or the Obligations have become immediately due and payable without notice pursuant to Section 9.2, then each Lender and
each Affiliate of a Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and
other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Group Member against any and all of the Obligations now or hereafter existing whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and even though such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.6 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights
of set-off) that such Lender may have. 
 Section 11.7 Sharing of Payments, Etc. 

(a) If any Revolving Credit Lender (directly or through an Affiliate thereof) obtains any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through
the exercise of any right of set-off (including pursuant to Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off)) or otherwise) of the Loans owing to it, any interest thereon, fees in respect thereof or amounts due pursuant to Section 11.3 (Costs and
Expenses) or 11.4 (Indemnities) (other than payments pursuant to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.16 (Taxes)) or otherwise receives
any Collateral or any “Proceeds” (as defined in the Security Agreement) of Collateral (other than payments pursuant to Section 2.14 (Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), 2.15 (Capital Adequacy) or
2.16 (Taxes)) (in each case, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off (including pursuant to Section 11.6 (Right of Set-off)) or otherwise) in excess of its Ratable Portion of all payments
of such Obligations obtained by all the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Revolving Credit Lender (a “Purchasing Lender”) shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders (each, a “Selling Lender”) such participations
in their Loans or other Obligations as shall be necessary to cause such Purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them. 
 (b) If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling
Lender shall repay to the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Selling Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender’s
required repayment in relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. 

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

all of the other Loan Documents and all certificates and documents delivered hereunder or thereunder, embodies the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. In the
event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. 
 Section 11.18 Confidentiality 
 Each of the Administrative
Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers,
administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and
instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (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 at least as restrictive as those of this
Section 11.18, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers,
administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations,
this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.18 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other
than the Borrower. 
 For purposes of this Section 11.18, “Information” means all information received
from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer on a
nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by

the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information
is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 11.18 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Section 11.19 Patriot Act Notice 
 Each Lender subject to the
Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, including the name and address of the Borrower and the other
Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act. 
 Section 11.20 No Lender Parties Implied Duties 
 The
Administrative Agent, each co-documentation agent, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates (for the purposed of this Section 11.20 each a “Lender Party” and, collectively the “Lender
Parties”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise will be
deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender Party, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and
agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lender Parties, on
the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders
or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender Party has advised, is currently advising or will
advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender Party is acting solely as principal and
not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and
that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or
respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
