provided or withheld in Agent’s sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, and absent which any notice from Borrower described below shall be void and of no force and effect), the Borrower may, from time to time prior to the
Maturity Date, upon written notice to the Agent (whereupon Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request up to four (4) increases (in minimum increments of $5,000,000), not to exceed $20,000,000 in the aggregate to the

respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 







 (b) Each Lender shall notify the Agent within such time period whether or
not it agrees to increase its Revolver Commitment in connection with such Revolver Increase and, if so, whether by a percentage of the requested Revolver Increase equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share in respect of the aggregate

to the approval of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swing Lender with respect to the identity of such Person, the Borrower may also invite additional Persons to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder to this Agreement in form and substance
satisfactory to the Agent and its counsel. 
 (d) If the Revolver Commitments and Maximum Revolver Amount are
increased in accordance with this Section 2.14, the Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) shall determine the effective date (the “Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase.
The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Revolving Credit Increase Effectiveness Date.

Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by an officer of such Loan Party, certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party
approving or consenting to such increase, and certifying that the conditions precedent set out in the following subclauses (ii) through (iv) have been satisfied, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would result from such Revolver Increase, (iii) before and after giving effect to such Revolver Increase, the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all
material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) on and as of the Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date, except to
the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by
materiality) as of such earlier date, (iv) after giving effect to such Revolver Increase, the Borrower would be in pro forma compliance with Section 7(a) of the Agreement for the twelve-month period to which the most recent Compliance
Certificate received by the Agent pursuant to Schedule 5.1 relates, assuming that the Revolver Commitments (after giving

Revolving Credit Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Advances, Letter of Credit Disbursements or Swing Loans (to the extent participated to Lenders), as the case may be, ratable with any revised Pro Rata Share of
a Lender in respect of the Revolver Commitments arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolver Commitments under this Section 2.14.
