Margin were applicable for such Revolving Credit Applicable Period, and (iii) the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days
of demand thereof by the Agent pay to the Agent the accrued additional amount owing as a result of such increased Revolving Credit
Applicable Margin for such Revolving Credit Applicable Period, which payment shall be promptly applied by the Agent in accordance

    	34



    	 



    

 


	Pricing Level	 	Ratio	 	LIBOR Rate

 Loans	 	 	Base Rate 

Loans	 
	Pricing Level 1	 	Less than or equal to 35%	 	 	1.65	%	 	 	0.65	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Pricing Level 2	 	Greater than 35% but less than or equal to 40%	 	 	1.70	%	 	 	0.70	%
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	Pricing Level 3	 	Greater than 40% but less than or equal to 45%	 	 	1.90	%	 	 	0.90	%

Certificate after the end of a calendar quarter. In the event that Parent Company shall fail to deliver to the Agent a quarterly
Compliance Certificate on or before the date required by §7.4(c), then without limiting any other rights of the Agent and
the Lenders under this Agreement, the Term Loan Applicable Margin for Term Loans shall be at Pricing Level 5 until such failure
is cured within any applicable cure period, or waived in writing by the Required Lenders, in which event the Term Loan Applicable
Margin shall adjust, if necessary, on the first (1st) day of the first (1st) month following receipt of such Compliance Certificate.


 


In the event that the
Agent and the Borrower determine that any financial statements previously delivered were incorrect or inaccurate (regardless of
whether this Agreement or Term Loan Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected,
would have led to the application of a higher Term Loan Applicable Margin for any period (a “Term Loan Applicable Period”)
than the Term Loan Applicable Margin applied for such Term Loan Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall as soon as practicable
deliver to the Agent the corrected financial statements for such Term Loan Applicable Period, (ii) the Term Loan Applicable Margin
shall be determined as if the Pricing Level for such higher Term Loan Applicable Margin were applicable for such Term Loan Applicable
Period, and (iii) the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days of demand thereof by the Agent pay to the Agent the accrued
additional amount owing as a result of such increased Term Loan Applicable Margin for such Term Loan Applicable Period, which payment
shall be promptly applied by the Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

Pool Availability. The Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability shall be the amount which is the lowest of (a) the maximum principal
amount of Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, which when added to all Unsecured Debt other than the Loans and Letter of Credit
Liabilities, would not cause the Consolidated Total Unsecured Debt plus the outstanding principal balance of the Equipment Loan
plus any Capitalized Lease Obligations of Borrower and its Subsidiaries with respect to any of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties
to be greater than sixty percent (60.0%) of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Capitalized Value, (b) the maximum principal amount of
Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, which when added to all Unsecured Debt other than the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities,
would not cause the Unencumbered Asset Pool Debt Service Ratio to be less than 1.70 to 1.00, and (c) the maximum principal amount
of Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities, which when added to all Unsecured Debt other than the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities,
would not cause the Unencumbered Asset Pool Debt Yield to be less than fourteen percent (14.0%).

Pool Capitalized Value. On a Consolidated basis for Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors which own an Unencumbered
Asset Pool Property, Unencumbered Asset Pool Capitalized Value shall mean the sum of (without duplication with respect to any Unencumbered

(b)     the
aggregate sum of the Adjusted Net Operating Income for an Unencumbered Pool Property that is a Leased Property divided by the Leased
Property Capitalization Rate.


 


Unencumbered Asset Pool
Capitalized Value will be adjusted, as appropriate, for acquisitions, dispositions and other changes to the portfolio during the
two calendar quarters most recently ended prior to a date of determination. For purposes of this definition, to the extent that
Unencumbered Asset Pool Capitalized Value attributable to (i) Leased Properties would exceed ten percent (10%) of the Unencumbered
Asset Pool Capitalized Value, or (ii) Ground Leases (excluding the Metro Ground Lease) would exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of
the Unencumbered Asset Pool Capitalized Value, then in each case such excess shall be excluded.


 


Unencumbered Asset
Pool Debt Service Coverage Ratio. The ratio of Adjusted Net Operating Income from the Unencumbered Asset Pool determined as
of the end of the fiscal quarter most recently ended, divided by the Implied Debt Service. For the purposes of calculating Unencumbered
Asset Pool Debt Service Coverage Ratio, when calculating Adjusted Net Operating Income for the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties
not owned and operated by the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor for two (2) full fiscal quarters, the Adjusted Net Operating Income
attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties shall be calculated by using the actual historical results for such Unencumbered
Asset Pool Properties for the two (2) full fiscal quarters most recently ended as if the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties had
been owned by the Borrower or a Guarantor during such period; provided, however, to the extent actual historical Adjusted Net Operating
Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties is unavailable, the Borrower may include such calculation of Adjusted
Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties calculated on a proforma basis, so long as the Agent
shall have given its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Additionally,
for Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties that have been disposed of during the period of two fiscal quarters most recently ended,
the Adjusted Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties shall be excluded from the calculation
of Adjusted Net Operating Income.


 




    	37



    	 



    

 


Unencumbered Asset
Pool Debt Yield. The quotient of (a) Adjusted Net Operating Income of the Unencumbered Asset Pool divided by (b) the sum of
(i) Consolidated Total Unsecured Debt plus (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Equipment Loan, plus (iii) all
Capitalized Lease Obligations of Borrower and its Subsidiaries with respect to any of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties, expressed
as a percentage. For the purposes of calculating Unencumbered Asset Pool Debt Yield, when calculating Adjusted Net Operating Income
for Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties not owned and operated by the Borrower or a Guarantor for two (2) full fiscal quarters,
the Adjusted Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties shall be calculated by using the actual
historical results for such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties (x) for the two (2) full fiscal quarters most recently ended as
if the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties had been owned by the Borrower or a Guarantor during such period; provided, however,
to the extent actual historical Adjusted Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties is unavailable,
the Borrower may include such calculation of Adjusted Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties
calculated on a proforma basis, so long as the Agent shall have given its prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. Additionally, for Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties that have been disposed of during the period
of two fiscal quarters most recently ended, the Adjusted Net Operating Income attributable to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties
shall be excluded from the calculation of Adjusted Net Operating Income.


 


Unencumbered Asset
Pool Property. Eligible Real Estate which satisfies all the conditions set forth in §7.18(a) or which have been included

Rate Debt. Any Indebtedness with respect to which the interest rate is not fixed or capped (or hedged to a fixed or capped
rate) for the entire term of such Indebtedness to maturity.

and Cash Equivalents. As of any date of determination, the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of Unrestricted cash and (b) the

    	38



    	 



    

 


Wholly Owned Subsidiary.
As to a Person, any Subsidiary of Parent Company that is directly or indirectly owned 100% by such Person. Subject to the compliance
by Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors with §8.18 of this Agreement, the Agent and the Lenders agree that, for so long
as any real property asset of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is subject to a Tax Driven Lease Transaction, such property
shall be treated as though it is owned by a Wholly Owned Subsidiary for all purposes under this Agreement. Furthermore, for so
long as net cash received (whether in the form of interest on bonds or otherwise) in connection with any Tax Driven Lease Transaction
equals the net cash paid (whether in the form of rent or otherwise) under the applicable Tax Driven Lease Transaction Documents,
such amounts shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the financial covenants in §9.

§2.         THE
CREDIT FACILITY.


 


§2.1        Revolving
Credit Loans.


 


(a)          Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agrees to lend to the Borrower,
and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Agent given in accordance with §2.7, such sums denominated in U.S. dollars as are
requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding (after
giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to the lesser of (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving
Credit Commitment and (ii) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Unencumbered Asset
Pool Availability; and provided, further that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
and provided, further, that the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts
requested), Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment and
the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), Term Loans, Swing
Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment or cause a violation of the covenants
set forth in §9.1. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and
warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions required of the Borrower set forth in §10 and §11 have been satisfied
on the date of such request. The Agent may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives
prior written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. No Revolving Credit Lender shall
have any obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrower in the maximum aggregate principal outstanding balance of more
than the principal face amount of its Revolving Credit Note.




    	40



    	 



    

 


(b)          The
Revolving Credit Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1
hereto (collectively, the “Revolving Credit Notes”), dated of even date with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided
in §2.11 or §18.3) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Revolving Credit Note shall be payable to the order
of each Revolving Credit Lender in the principal amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment.
The Borrower irrevocably authorizes Agent to make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Revolving
Credit Loan or the time of receipt of any payment of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on Agent’s Record reflecting
the making of such Revolving Credit Loan or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans set forth on Agent’s Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing
and unpaid to each Revolving Credit Lender, but the failure to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on Agent’s
Record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under any Revolving Credit Note to make
payments of principal of or interest on any Revolving Credit Note when due. There shall not be deemed to have occurred, and there
has not otherwise occurred, any payment in full, satisfaction or novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the “Revolving
Credit Notes”, as defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which indebtedness is instead allocated among
the Revolving Credit Lenders as of the date hereof, as applicable, in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages. On the Closing Date, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves so that the outstanding
Revolving Credit Loans are consistent with their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages.

.. The Term Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-3
hereto, dated of even date with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in §2.11 or §18.3) and completed with
appropriate insertions. One Term Loan Note shall be payable to the order of each Term Loan Lender in the principal amount equal
to such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. There shall not be deemed to have occurred, and there has not otherwise
occurred, any payment in full, satisfaction or novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the “Term Loan Notes”, as
defined in the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which indebtedness is instead allocated among the Term Loan Lenders
as of the date hereof, as applicable, in accordance with their respective Term Loan Commitment Percentages. On the Closing Date,
the Term Loan Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves so that the Outstanding Term Loans are consistent with their Term
Loan Commitment Percentages.

§2.3           Facility
Unused Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than a Defaulting
Lender for such period of time as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages a facility unused fee calculated at the rate per annum as set forth below on the average daily amount by which the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans, Letter of Credit Liabilities
and Swing Loans, during each calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Revolving Credit
Maturity Date. The facility unused fee shall be calculated for each day based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (a) the
average daily amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (other than Revolving Credit Loans made
by a Defaulting Lender), Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans during such quarter to (b) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment
(other than Revolving Credit Commitments made by a Defaulting Lender), and if such ratio is less than fifty percent (50%), the
facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.25%, and if such ratio is equal to or greater than fifty percent (50%),
the facility unused fee shall be payable at the rate of 0.15%. The facility unused fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on
the first (1st) day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, and
on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as provided in §2.4, with
a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.


 


§2.4           Reduction
and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon
five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent to reduce by $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof (provided that in no event shall the Total Revolving Credit Commitment be reduced in such manner to an
amount less than $50,000,000.00) or to terminate entirely the Revolving Credit Commitments, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments
of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages
of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated, any such termination or reduction to be without penalty
except as otherwise set forth in §4.8; provided, however, that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted
if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Outstanding Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit
Liabilities would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders as so terminated or reduced. Promptly
after receiving any notice from the Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.4, the Agent will notify the Revolving Credit
Lenders of the substance thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall also result in a proportionate reduction
(rounded to the next lowest integral multiple of $100,000) in the maximum amount of Swing Loans and Letters of Credit. Upon the
effective date of any such reduction or termination, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving
Credit Lenders the full amount of any facility fee under §2.3 then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments may be reinstated.

§2.5        Swing
Loan Commitment.





 


(a)          Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Swing Loan Lender agrees to lend to the Borrower (the “Swing Loans”),
and the Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the date which is five (5)
Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by the Borrower to the Swing Loan Lender given in accordance
with this §2.5, such sums as are requested by the Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 in an aggregate principal
amount at any one time outstanding not exceeding the Swing Loan Commitment; provided that in all events (i) no Default or Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing
Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the
Total Revolving Credit Commitment; and (iii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and Swing
Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) plus Letter of Credit Liabilities, shall not at any time exceed the
lesser of (A) the Total Commitment, or (B) the Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability. Swing Loans shall constitute “Revolving
Credit Loans” for all purposes hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §2.5, the Swing
Loan Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Loan at a time when any other Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender,
unless the Swing Loan Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Revolving Credit
Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with §2.14(c) and the Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein,
except to the extent the Swing Loan Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender that are satisfactory
to the Swing Loan Lender in its good faith determination to eliminate the Swing Loan Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect
to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral. The funding of a Swing Loan hereunder shall constitute
a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all of the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 have been satisfied
on the date of such funding. The Swing Loan Lender may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied
unless Swing Loan Lender has received written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied.
Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable within five (5) Business Days of the date such Swing Loan was provided and the Borrower
hereby agrees (to the extent not repaid as contemplated by §2.5(d) below) to repay each Swing Loan on or before the date that
is five (5) Business Days from the date such Swing Loan was provided.


 


(b)          The
Swing Loans shall be evidenced by a separate promissory note of the Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto
(the “Swing Loan Note”), dated the date of this Agreement and completed with appropriate insertions (except as provided
in §2.11). The Swing Loan Note shall be payable to the order of the Swing Loan Lender in the principal face amount equal to
the Swing Loan Commitment and shall be payable as set forth below. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swing Loan Lender to
make or cause to be made, at or about the time of the Drawdown Date of any Swing Loan or at the time of receipt of any payment
of principal thereof, an appropriate notation on the Swing Loan Lender’s Record reflecting the making of such Swing Loan
or (as the case may be) the receipt of such payment. The outstanding amount of the Swing Loans set forth on the Swing Loan Lender’s
Record shall be prima facie evidence of the principal amount thereof owing and unpaid to the Swing Loan Lender, but the failure
to record, or any error in so recording, any such amount on the Swing Loan Lender’s Record shall not limit or otherwise affect
the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Swing Loan Note to make payments of principal of or interest on any Swing
Loan Note when due.








 


(c)          The
Borrower shall request a Swing Loan by delivering to the Swing Loan Lender a Loan Request executed by an Authorized Officer no
later than 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) on the requested Drawdown Date specifying the amount of the requested Swing Loan (which
shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000.00) and providing the wire instructions for the delivery of the Swing Loan proceeds.
The Loan Request shall also contain the statements and certifications required by §2.7(i) and (ii). Each such Loan Request
shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept such Swing Loan on the Drawdown Date.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at the greater
of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate, or (ii) the Base Rate plus, in each case, the Revolving Credit Applicable Margin for Base
Rate Loans. The proceeds of the Swing Loan will be disbursed by wire by the Swing Loan Lender to the Borrower no later than 1:00
p.m. (Cleveland time).


 






    	43



    	 



    

 


(d)          The
Swing Loan Lender shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, request each Revolving
Credit Lender, including the Swing Loan Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1 in an amount equal to such
Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loan outstanding on the date
such notice is given. In the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent in writing otherwise on or before noon (Cleveland
Time) of the second (2nd) Business Day after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, Agent shall notify the Revolving
Credit Lenders that such Revolving Credit Loan shall be a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month,
provided that the making of such Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan will not be in contravention of any other provision of this Agreement,
or if the making of a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan would be in contravention of this Agreement, then such notice shall indicate
that such loan shall be a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swing Loan
Lender to so act on its behalf, and agrees that any amount advanced to the Agent for the benefit of the Swing Loan Lender pursuant
to this §2.5(d) shall be considered a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1. Unless any of the events described in paragraph
(h), (i) or (j) of §12.1 shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of §2.5(e) shall apply), each Revolving Credit
Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Swing Loan Lender for the account of the Swing Loan
Lender at the Agent’s Head Office prior to 12:00 noon (Cleveland time) in funds immediately available no later than the third
(3rd) Business Day after the date such notice is given just as if the Revolving Credit Lenders were funding directly to the Borrower,
so that thereafter such Obligations shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan
shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Loans.


 


(e)          If
for any reason a Swing Loan cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d), each Revolving Credit Lender
will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation
interest in the Swing Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan. Each Revolving
Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Loan Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation
and upon receipt thereof the Swing Loan Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Swing Loan participation certificate
dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.





 


(f)          Whenever
at any time after the Swing Loan Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation
interest in a Swing Loan, the Swing Loan Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Loan Lender will distribute
to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments
to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded);
provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Loan Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving
Credit Lender will return to the Swing Loan Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Loan Lender to it.

(g)          Each
Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan as provided in §2.5(d) or to purchase participation
interests pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including,
without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or
the Borrower or Guarantors may have against the Swing Loan Lender, the Borrower or Guarantors or anyone else for any reason whatsoever;
(ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or
otherwise) of the Borrower or Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any of the
other Loan Documents by the Borrower, Guarantors or any Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether
or not similar to any of the foregoing. Any portions of a Swing Loan not so purchased or converted may be treated by the Agent
and Swing Loan Lender as against such Revolving Credit Lender as a Revolving Credit Loan which was not funded by the non-purchasing
Revolving Credit Lender as contemplated by §2.8 and §12.5, and shall have such rights and remedies against such Revolving
Credit Lender as are set forth in this Agreement. Each Swing Loan, once so sold or converted, shall cease to be a Swing Loan for
the purposes of this Agreement, but shall be a Revolving Credit Loan made by each Revolving Credit Lender under its Revolving Credit
Commitment.


 


§2.6        Interest
on Loans.


 


(a)          Each
Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the
date on which such Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan at the rate per
annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Revolving Credit Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.


 


(b)          Each
Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the
last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR determined for such Interest
Period plus the Revolving Credit Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans.


 


(c)          Each
Term Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which
such Term Base Rate Loan is repaid or is converted to a Term LIBOR Rate Loan at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Term Loan
Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate.





 


(d)          Each
Term LIBOR Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of
each Interest Period with respect thereto at the rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR determined for such Interest Period plus
the Term Loan Applicable Margin for LIBOR Rate Loans.


 


(e)          The
Borrower promises to pay interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.


 


(f)          Base
Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans may be converted to Loans of the other Type as provided in §4.1.


 






    	45



    	 



    

 


§2.7           Requests
for Revolving Credit Loans. Except with respect to the initial Revolving Credit Loan on the Closing Date, the Borrower shall
give to the Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit G hereto (or telephonic
notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit G hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a
“Loan Request”) by 11:00 a.m. (Cleveland time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect
to Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Revolving
Credit LIBOR Rate Loans. Each such notice shall specify with respect to the requested Revolving Credit Loan the proposed principal
amount of such Revolving Credit Loan, the Type of Revolving Credit Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such
Revolving Credit Loan and the Drawdown Date. Each such notice shall also contain (i) a general statement as to the purpose
for which such advance shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of §2.9) and (ii) a certification
by the chief financial officer or chief accounting officer of Parent Company that the Borrower and Guarantors are and will be
in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the making and use of such Revolving Credit Loan.
Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the Agent shall notify each of the Revolving Credit Lenders thereof. Each such Loan
Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Revolving Credit Loan requested
from the Revolving Credit Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. Nothing herein shall prevent the Borrower from seeking recourse
against any Revolving Credit Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Revolving Credit Loan as required
by this Agreement. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of
$1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 in excess thereof; or (b) for a Revolving Credit LIBOR
Rate Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $250,000.00 in excess thereof; provided,
however, that there shall be no more than five (5) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time.


 


§2.8        Funds
for Loans.


 





(a)          Not
later than 1:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans or on the Effective Date or any
Increase Date with respect to any Term Loans, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, will make
available to the Agent, at the Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.1 or §2.2. Upon receipt from each
such Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender, as applicable, of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by
§10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent applicable, the Agent will
make available to the Borrower the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans made available to the Agent by
the Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, by crediting such amount to the account of the Borrower maintained
at the Agent’s Head Office. The failure or refusal of any Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender to make available to
the Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans or on the Effective Date or any Increase
Date with respect to any Term Loans the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other
Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent the amount of
such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested Loans, including any additional Revolving Credit Loans that may
be requested subject to the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those not advanced by the Lender so failing
or refusing. In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Lenders not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority
secured position as against the Lender or Lenders so failing or refusing to make available to the Borrower the amount of its or
their Commitment Percentage for such Loans as provided in §12.5.


 






    	46



    	 



    

 


(b)          Unless
the Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Drawdown Date of any Revolving Credit Loans or on the
Effective Date or any Increase Date with respect to any Term Loans that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender’s
Commitment Percentage of a proposed Loan, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan available to Agent
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such
Loan available to the Borrower, and such Lender shall be liable to the Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does
not pay such corresponding amount upon the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the
Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Agent. The Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender
or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding
amount was made available by the Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Agent at a per
annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate.


 


§2.9        Use
of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans solely (a) to pay closing costs in connection with this Agreement,
(b) to repay and satisfy existing financing, (c) to fund future development projects, property and equipment acquisitions and
(d) for general corporate purposes.


 


§2.10      Letters
of Credit.


 





(a)          Subject
to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date through the day
that is ninety (90) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender shall issue such Letters of Credit as
the Borrower may request, either for itself or on behalf of any of its Subsidiaries, upon the delivery of a written request in
the form of Exhibit H hereto (a “Letter of Credit Request”) to the Issuing Lender, provided that (i) no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) upon issuance of such Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Liabilities
shall not exceed Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00), (iii) in no event shall the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to all Letters of Credit requested) exceed the
Revolving Credit Commitment, (iv) in no event shall the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans,
Swing Loans and Letters of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to all Letters of Credit requested) exceed the Total Commitment
or cause a violation of the covenants set forth in §9.1, (v) in no event shall the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving
Credit Loans, Term Loans, Swing Loans and Letters of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to all Letters of Credit requested),
exceed the Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability, (vi) the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 shall have been satisfied,
and (vii) in no event shall any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit be available for reinstatement or a subsequent drawing under
such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this §2.10, the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated
to issue, amend, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting
Lender, unless the Issuing Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Revolving
Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with §2.14(c) and the Defaulting Lender shall have no participation
therein, except to the extent the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender which
are satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its good faith determination to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure
with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral. The Issuing Lender may assume that the conditions
in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions
have not been satisfied. Each Letter of Credit Request shall be executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower. The Issuing
Lender shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Person’s authority to request a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries. The Issuing Lender shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of any signature appearing on a Letter
of Credit Request. The Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the use of the Letters of Credit. Unless the Issuing Lender and
the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders otherwise consent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed a period of time commencing
on the issuance of the Letter of Credit and ending one year after the date of issuance thereof, subject to extension pursuant to
an “evergreen” clause reasonably acceptable to Agent and Issuing Lender (but in any event the term shall not extend
beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date); provided however, that subject to the terms and conditions of §2.13, a Letter
of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an “evergreen” clause, have an expiration
of not more than one year beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists and is
continuing and prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize all Letters of Credit having
an expiry date after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and failure to do so shall constitute an Event of Default. The amount
available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount available to be drawn under
the Total Revolving Credit Commitment as a Revolving Credit Loan. Each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall upon the Closing
Date be deemed to be a Letter of Credit under this Agreement.


 




    	47



    	 



    

 


(b)          Each
Letter of Credit Request shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the
Issuing Lender may approve) prior to the date upon which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Each such Letter of Credit
Request shall contain (i) a statement as to the purpose for which such Letter of Credit shall be used (which purpose shall be in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and (ii) a certification by the chief financial or chief accounting officer of the
Borrower that the Borrower is and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the
issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall further deliver to the Issuing Lender such additional applications (which
application as of the date hereof is in the form of Exhibit L attached hereto) and documents as the Issuing Lender may require,
in conformity with the then standard practices of its letter of credit department, in connection with the issuance of such Letter
of Credit; provided that in the event of any conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control.


 


(c)          The
Issuing Lender shall, subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue the Letter of Credit on or before five (5) Business
Days following receipt of the documents last due pursuant to §2.10(b). Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion.


 


(d)          Upon
the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation therein from
Issuing Lender in an amount equal to its respective Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. No Revolving
Credit Lender’s obligation to participate in a Letter of Credit shall be affected by any other Revolving Credit Lender’s
failure to perform as required herein with respect to such Letter of Credit or any other Letter of Credit.


 






    	48



    	 



    

 


(e)          Upon
the issuance of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender (i) for its own account, a Letter of Credit
fronting fee calculated at the rate of one eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the amount available to be drawn under such
Letter of Credit (which fee shall not be less than $1,500 in any event), and (ii) for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders
(including the Issuing Lender) that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective percentage shares of participation
in such Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee calculated at the rate per annum equal to the Revolving Credit Applicable Margin
then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans on the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such fees under §2.10(e)(ii)
shall be payable in quarterly installments in arrears with respect to each Letter of Credit on the first day of each calendar quarter
following the date of issuance and continuing on each quarter or portion thereof thereafter, as applicable, or on any earlier date
on which the Commitments shall terminate and on the expiration or return of any Letter of Credit.


 





(f)          In
the event that any amount is drawn under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing
Lender by having such amount drawn treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement (the Borrower
being deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing
and such amount drawn shall be treated as an outstanding Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan under this Agreement) and the Agent shall
promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telex, telecopy, telegram, telephone (confirmed in writing) or other similar means
of transmission, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Agent, for the Issuing Lender’s
own account, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit
(to the extent of the amount drawn). If and to the extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall not make such amount available on the
Business Day on which such draw is funded, such Lender agrees to pay such amount to the Agent forthwith on demand, together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date on which such draw was funded until the date on which such amount is paid to the Agent,
at the Federal Funds Effective Rate until three (3) days after the date on which the Agent gives notice of such draw and at the
Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one percent (1.0%) for each day thereafter. Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed
to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, amounts due with respect to
its participations in Letters of Credit and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Agent to fund the amount of any drawn
Letter of Credit which such Revolving Credit Lender was required to fund pursuant to this §2.10(f) until such amount has been
funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Revolving Credit Lenders
not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority secured position for such amounts as provided in §12.5. The failure
of any Revolving Credit Lender to make funds available to the Agent in such amount shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit
Lender of its obligation hereunder to make funds available to the Agent pursuant to this §2.10(f).


 


(g)          If
after the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.10(c) by the Issuing Lender, but prior to the funding of any portion
thereof by a Revolving Credit Lender, for any reason a drawing under a Letter of Credit cannot be refinanced as a Revolving Credit
Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.10(f) was to have been made,
purchase an undivided participation interest in the Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage
of the amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Issuing Lender in immediately
available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Issuing Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit
Lender a Letter of Credit participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.


 






    	49



    	 



    

 


(h)          Whenever
at any time after the Issuing Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender any such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment
of funds under a Letter of Credit and thereafter the Issuing Lender receives any payment on account thereof, then the Issuing Lender
will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of
interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest was outstanding
and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned,
such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender
to it.


 


(i)          The
issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all
respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.








 


(j)          The
Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither Agent,
Issuing Lender nor any Lender will be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect
of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if
such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the
form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to
transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may
prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with
the conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in
transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical
terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required by or from a beneficiary in order
to make a disbursement under a Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any
Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes
beyond the control of Agent or any Lender. None of the foregoing will affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights
or powers granted to Agent, Issuing Lender or the Lenders hereunder. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation
of any of the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, Issuing Lender or the other Lenders in good faith will
be binding on the Borrower and will not put Agent, Issuing Lender or the other Lenders under any resulting liability to the Borrower;
provided nothing contained herein shall relieve Issuing Lender for liability to the Borrower arising as a result of the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of Issuing Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable
appeal periods.


 


(k)          There
shall be no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision in the Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit without
the consent of the Issuing Lender.

§2.11      Increase
in Total Commitment.


 


(a)          Provided
that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.11,
the Borrower shall have the option at any time and from time to time to request an increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment
and/or the Total Term Loan Commitment, each in increments of $10,000,000.00 by an aggregate amount of increases to the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment and the Total Term Loan Commitment of up to $200,000,000.00 (the amount of the requested increase to be set forth
in the Increase Notice) (which, assuming no previous reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments,
would result in a maximum Total Commitment of $850,000,000.00), written notice to the Agent (an “Increase Notice”;
and the amount of such requested increase is the “Commitment Increase”). The execution and delivery of the Increase
Notice by the Borrower shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that all the conditions set forth in this
§2.11 shall have been satisfied on the date of such Increase Notice. The Commitment Increase may be allocated (1) to the then
existing Revolving Credit Commitments, (2) as a new revolving tranche having the same terms as the then existing Revolving Credit
Commitments, (3) to the then existing Term Loan Commitments having the same terms as the existing Term Loan Commitments, or (4)
any combination thereof satisfactory to Agent and existing or additional Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable,
providing such additional Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loan Commitments, as applicable.


 





(b)          Upon
receipt of any Increase Notice, the Agent shall consult with Arranger and shall notify the Borrower of the amount of facility fees
to be paid to any Lenders who provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, in connection
with such increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment, as applicable (which shall be in addition
to the fees to be paid to Agent or Arranger pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees). If the Borrower agrees to pay the facility
fees so determined, then the Agent shall send a notice to all Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, (the
“Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of the Borrower’s request to increase the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, and of the facility fees to be paid with respect thereto. Each
Lender who desires to provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, upon such terms
shall provide Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of the additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term
Loan Commitment, as applicable, which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment
Request Notice. If the requested increase is oversubscribed then the Agent and the Arranger shall allocate the Commitment Increase
among the Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, who provide such commitment letters on such basis as the
Agent and the Arranger shall determine after consultation with the Borrower. If the additional Revolving Credit Commitments or
Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, so provided are not sufficient to provide the full amount of the Commitment Increase requested
by the Borrower, then the Agent, Arranger or the Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, invite one or more banks or lending
institutions (which banks or lending institutions shall be acceptable to Agent, Arranger and the Borrower) to become a Revolving
Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender and provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable.
The Agent shall provide all Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, with a notice setting forth the amount,
if any, of the additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, to be provided by each Revolving Credit Lender or
Term Loan Lender, as applicable, and the revised Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages or Term Loan Commitment Percentages, as
applicable, which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (the “Increase
Date”). In no event shall any Lender be obligated to provide an additional Revolving Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment.


 






    	51



    	 



    

 


(c)          On
any Increase Date the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, shall be reallocated
among the Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, such that after the applicable Increase Date the outstanding
principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans owed to each Lender shall be equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit
Commitment Percentage or Term Loan Commitment Percentage (as in effect after the applicable Increase Date) of the outstanding principal
amount of all Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable. On any Increase Date with respect to an increase in the Total
Revolving Credit Commitment, the Swing Loan Commitment shall increase proportionately (rounded to the next lowest integral multiple
of $100,000). The participation interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be similarly
adjusted. On any Increase Date those Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage
or Term Loan Commitment Percentage is increasing shall advance the funds to the Agent and the funds so advanced shall be distributed
among the Revolving Credit Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, whose Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage or Term Loan
Commitment Percentage, as applicable, is decreasing as necessary to accomplish the required reallocation of the outstanding Revolving
Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable. The funds so advanced shall be Base Rate Loans until converted to LIBOR Rate Loans which
are allocated among all Lenders based on their Commitment Percentages. The Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if
any, resulting from any Commitment Increase.





 


(d)          Upon
the effective date of each increase in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment pursuant to this §2.11,
the Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1 and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent new Revolving
Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and a Swing Loan Note for each Lender whose Commitment has changed and for the Swing Loan Lender
so that the principal amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Note shall equal its Revolving Credit Commitment,
such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Note shall equal its Term Loan Commitment and the Swing Loan Lender’s Swing Loan
Note shall equal its Swing Loan Commitment. The Agent shall deliver such replacement Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and
Swing Loan Note to the respective Lenders in exchange for the Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and Swing Loan Note replaced
thereby which shall be surrendered by such Lenders. Such new Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and Swing Loan Note shall
provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes or Swing Loan Note, as applicable,
and that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the
form of the replaced Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes or Swing Loan Note, as applicable. In connection therewith, the Borrower
shall deliver an opinion of counsel, addressed to the Lenders and the Agent, relating to the due authorization, execution and delivery
of such new Revolving Credit Notes, Term Loan Notes and Swing Loan Note and the enforceability thereof, in form and substance substantially
similar to the opinion delivered in connection with the first disbursement under this Agreement. The surrendered Revolving Credit
Notes, Term Loan Notes and Swing Loan Note shall be canceled and returned to the Borrower.


 






    	52



    	 



    

 


(e)          Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligation of the Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders to increase the Total Revolving
Credit Commitment or the Agent and the Term Loan Lenders to increase the Total Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, pursuant to
this §2.11 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied prior to the
effectiveness of any increase of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or the Total Term Loan Commitment, as applicable:


 


(i)          Payment
of Activation Fee. The Borrower shall pay (A) to the Agent those fees described in and contemplated by the Agreement Regarding
Fees with respect to the applicable Commitment Increase, and (B) to the Arranger such facility fees as the Revolving Credit
Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, who are providing an additional Commitment may require to increase the aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, which fees shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable under any circumstances.
The Arranger shall pay to the Lenders acquiring the applicable Commitment Increase certain fees pursuant to their separate agreement;
and


 


(ii)         No
Default. On the date any Increase Notice is given and on the date such increase becomes effective, both immediately before
and after the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment is increased, there shall exist no Default or Event
of Default; and


 





(iii)        Representations
True. The representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the Guarantors in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by
or on behalf of the Borrower or the Guarantors in connection therewith or after the date thereof shall have been true and correct
in all material respects when made and shall also be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that any representation
and warranty that is qualified by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects) on the date of such Increase Notice and
on the date the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment is increased, both immediately before and after
the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or Total Term Loan Commitment is increased, except that if any representation and warranty
is as of a specified date, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date;
and


 


(iv)        Additional
Documents. The Borrower and the Guarantors shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such additional documents, instruments,
certifications and opinions as the Agent may reasonably require in its sole and absolute discretion, including, without limitation,
a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Documents
after giving effect to the increase; and


 


(v)         Other.
The Borrower and the Guarantors shall satisfy such other conditions to such increase as Agent may require in its reasonable discretion.


 


§2.12      Cash
Collateral.


 


(a)          Certain
Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Agent or the Issuing Lender (i) if the Issuing Lender has honored any full or
partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in Letter of Credit Liabilities that remain unpaid,
or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit Liabilities for any reason remains outstanding, the
Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then outstanding amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities. At
any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender, promptly upon the written request of the
Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swing Loan Lender, as applicable, the Borrower shall deliver to Agent Cash Collateral in an amount
sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure as provided in §2.14(e). Such cash collateral or other credit support provided under
the immediately preceding sentence will be promptly returned to the Borrower at such time as the Revolving Credit Lender is no
longer a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.


 






    	53



    	 



    

 


(b)          Grant
of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained
in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at KeyBank. Amounts deposited in the deposit accounts shall not be invested and will
earn interest at a rate paid by KeyBank with respect to money market accounts. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any
Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Agent, for the benefit
of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in
all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and
in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to
§2.12(c). If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than
the Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and
other obligations secured thereby including, without limitation, §2.10, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will,
promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate
such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral previously provided).





 


(c)          Application.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Cash Collateral provided under this Credit Agreement
in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Letter of Credit Liabilities, obligations
to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such
obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property
as may be provided for herein, and (ii) Cash Collateral provided under this Credit Agreement in respect of Swing Loans shall be
held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific Swing Loan liabilities, obligations to fund participations therein (including,
as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which
the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.


 


(d)          Release.
Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released
promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including
by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Revolving Credit Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following
compliance with §18)), the return or cancellation of the Letter of Credit or the term of the Letter of Credit not going beyond
the Letter of Credit Expiration Date or (ii) the Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral;
provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower shall not be released during the continuance
of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this §2.12 may be otherwise applied in accordance
with §12.5), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral
shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.


 






    	54



    	 



    

 


§2.13         Termination
of Agreement.This Agreement shall terminate at such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) all Letters
of Credit (other than Letters of Credit the expiration dates of which extend beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date as permitted
under §2.10 and in respect of which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such section or §2.12, as applicable)
have expired, have been cancelled or have otherwise terminated, (c) none of the Lenders nor the Swing Loan Lender is obligated
any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in
the following proviso and as set forth in §15 and §16) and Hedge Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full; provided,
however, if on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or any other date that this Agreement terminates any Letters of Credit permitted
under §2.10 to have expiration dates that extend beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date remain outstanding, then the
provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Agent, Issuing Lender and the Borrower with respect to Letters of Credit, including,
without limitation, the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under §2.10(f), shall remain in effect until all such
Letters of Credit have expired, have been cancelled or have otherwise terminated; provided, however, notwithstanding anything
else provided herein or otherwise, after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, no Lender (other than the Issuing Lender) shall have
any liability or obligation relating to any Letter of Credit Liabilities (including, without limitation, in respect of any Letter
of Credit that has an expiry date after such date).





 


§2.14      Defaulting
Lenders.


 


(a)          If
for any reason any Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the
Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or applicable law, except as otherwise provided under §27, such Defaulting Lender’s
right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation,
any right to vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be taken into account in
the calculation of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders, the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, shall be suspended during
the pendency of such failure or refusal. If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the
Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition
to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise,
the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from
the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or
setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting
Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a
court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest. Any amounts received by the Agent in
respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall be applied as set forth in §2.14(d). Notwithstanding anything else provided
herein or otherwise, no limitation on such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loans shall
mean or be deemed to limit or otherwise impair, such Defaulting Lender’s right to attend, but not participate or vote (except
as otherwise provided under §27), in any bank meeting or to request or receive any information in connection with or as provided
under any of the Loan Documents.


 






    	55



    	 



    

 


(b)          Any
Non-Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire all or a portion of a Defaulting Lender’s
Commitment at par. Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Agent and the Borrower no
sooner than two (2) Business Days and not later than five (5) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender.
If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender’s
Commitment in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right. If after such fifth (5th) Business Day,
the Lenders have not elected to purchase all of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower (so long as no Default
or Event of Default exists) or the Required Lenders may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender
and the other Lenders, demand (but shall have no obligation to so demand) that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to
an eligible assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1 for the purchase price provided for below and
upon any such demand such Defaulting Lender shall comply with such demand and shall consummate such assignment (subject to and
in accordance with the provisions of §18.1). No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement
or to assist in finding an eligible assignee. Upon any such purchase or assignment, and any such demand with respect to which the
conditions specified in §18.1 have been satisfied, the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder
(but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent the same relate to the period
prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly
execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including
an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance Agreement. The purchase price for the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal
to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender plus any accrued
but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees. Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Agent
shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Agent pursuant to §2.14(d).





 


(c)          During
any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to acquire, refinance
or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to §2.10(g) or Swing Loans pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be reallocated
among the Revolving Credit Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment
Percentages (computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each
such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,
no Default or Event of Default exists, (ii) the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 are satisfied at the time of such
reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented
and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at the time), (iii) the representations and warranties in the Loan Documents shall
be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such reallocation with the same effect as though made on
and as of such date, except to the extent of changes resulting from transactions permitted by the Loan Documents (it being understood
and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and
correct only as of such specified date), and (iv) the aggregate obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Non-Defaulting
Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall not exceed the positive difference,
if any, of (A) the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate outstanding
principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of that Lender plus (2) such Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with
its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans. No reallocation hereunder
shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having
become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased
exposure following such reallocation.


 






    	56



    	 



    







 


(d)          Any
payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether
voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent for the account of such
Defaulting Lender pursuant to §13), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first,
to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent (other than with respect to Letter of Credit Liabilities)
hereunder; second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender (with respect to
Letter of Credit Liabilities) and/or the Swing Loan Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Agent or requested
by the Issuing Lender or the Swing Loan Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting
Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default
or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion
thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower,
to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting
Lender to fund Loans or participations under this Agreement and (y) be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of
such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan; sixth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Agent or the Lenders (including the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender) as a result of any judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Agent or any Lender (including the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender) against
such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh,
so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court
of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or funded participations
in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii)
such Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §10
and §11, to the extent required by this Agreement, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the
Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis
until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders
pro rata in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages and Term Loan Commitment Percentages, as applicable,
without regard to §2.14(c), prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or funded participations in Letters of
Credit or Swing Loans owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting
Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this §2.14(d)
shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto, and to the extent
allocated to the repayment of principal of the Loan, shall not be considered outstanding principal under this Agreement.


 






    	57



    	 



    

 


(e)          Within
five (5) Business Days of demand by the Issuing Lender or Swing Loan Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver to the
Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Loan Lender Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting
Exposure with respect to the Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender (after giving effect to §2.5(a), §2.10(a) and §2.14(c))
on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender in its good faith determination (and such Cash
Collateral shall be in Dollars). Any such Cash Collateral shall be deposited in the collateral account described in §2.12
as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and/or the Swing Loan Lender) for the payment and performance of each
Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of outstanding
Letter of Credit Liabilities and Swing Loans. Moneys in such account deposited pursuant to this section shall be applied by the
Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender and/or the Swing Loan Lender immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion
in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of any funding obligation with respect to a Letter
of Credit or Swing Loan which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.





 


(i)          
(i)          Each Revolving Credit Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not
be entitled to receive any facility unused fee pursuant to §2.3 for any period during which that Revolving Credit Lender is
a Defaulting Lender.


 


(ii)         Each
Revolving Credit Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees pursuant to §2.10(e)
for any period during which that Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender.


 


(iii)        With
respect to any facility unused fee or Letter of Credit fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause
(i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Credit Lender that portion of any
such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of
Credit Liabilities or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to §2.14(c), (y) pay to
the Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable
to the Issuing Lender’s or Swing Loan Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required
to pay any remaining amount of any such fee.


 


(g)          If
the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) and the Agent agree in writing in their reasonable discretion that
a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon
as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect
to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders
or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations
in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments (without
giving effect to §2.14(c)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and any applicable cash collateral
provided by the Borrower shall be promptly refunded to the Borrower; 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 Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been
a Defaulting Lender.

§4.         CERTAIN
GENERAL PROVISIONS.


 


§4.1       Conversion
Options.


 


(a)        The
Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of its outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans to a Revolving Credit
Loan or Term Loan of another Type and such Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan
or a LIBOR Rate Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan to
a Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election,
and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) with
respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall give the Agent at least two (2) LIBOR
Business Days’ prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the principal amount
of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $250,000.00 in excess
thereof and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than five (5) Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loans
and two (2) Term LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at any one time; and (iii) no Loan may be converted into a LIBOR Rate Loan when
any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. All or any part of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or Term
Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no partial conversion shall result in a Revolving Credit
Base Rate Loan or Term Base Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $100,000.00 or
a Revolving Credit LIBOR Rate Loan or a Term LIBOR Rate Loan in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000.00 or an integral multiple
of $250,000.00. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer
its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be. Each Conversion/Continuation
Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable by the Borrower.


 






    	61



    	 



    

 


(b)        Any
LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the
Borrower with the terms of §4.1; provided that no LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest
Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.


 


(c)        In
the event that the Borrower does not notify the Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, such Loan
shall be automatically continued at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period of one
month unless such Interest Period shall be greater than the time remaining until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, in which case
such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.


 


§4.2       Fees.
The Borrower and the Guarantors agree to pay to KeyBank and Agent for their own account certain fees for services rendered or
to be rendered in connection with the Loans as provided pursuant to that certain fee letter dated as of October 28, 2014
between the Borrower, KeyBank and KeyBanc Capital Markets (the “Agreement Regarding Fees”).All such fees shall be
fully earned when paid and nonrefundable under any circumstances.


 


§4.3       Agent
Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the Agent’s own account, a non-refundable Agent’s administrative
fee pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees. The Agent’s fee shall be payable upon the Closing Date and on each annual
anniversary date thereof until the termination of the Commitment and the indefeasible repayment in full and satisfaction of the
Obligations and Hedge Obligations.


 


§4.4       Funds
for Payments.


 


(a)        All
payments of principal, interest, facility fees, Letter of Credit Fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under
any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to the Agent, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and the Agent, as the case
may be, at the Agent’s Head Office, not later than 2:00 p.m. (Cleveland time) on the day when due, in each case in lawful
money of the United States in immediately available funds. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the accounts of the Borrower
with KeyBank, on the dates when the amount thereof shall become due and payable, with the amounts of the principal of and interest
on the Loans and all fees, charges, expenses and other amounts owing to the Agent and/or the Lenders (including the Swing Loan
Lender) under the Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, all payments made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and actually received
by Agent, shall be deemed received by the Lenders on the date actually received by Agent.


 






    	62



    	 



    

 


(b)        All
payments by the Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free
and clear of and without deduction for any taxes (other than (i) income or franchise taxes imposed on any Lender and (ii) U.S.
federal taxes imposed by reason of a Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of FATCA to establish that such payment
is exempt from withholding tax thereunder), levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, compulsory loans,
restrictions or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof
or taxing or other authority therein unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such
obligation is imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents,
the Borrower will pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders (including the Swing Loan Lender) or (as the case may be) the
Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount
in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Agent
would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon the Borrower. The Borrower will deliver promptly
to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments
made by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document.


 


(c)        Each
Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, if requested in writing by the Borrower (but only
so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower with such duly executed form(s) or statement(s)
which may, from time to time, be prescribed by law and, which, pursuant to applicable provisions of (i) an income tax treaty
between the United States and the country of residence of such Lender, (ii) the Code, or (iii) any applicable rules or
regulations in effect under (i) or (ii) above, indicates the withholding status of such Lender; provided that nothing herein
(including without limitation the failure or inability to provide such form or statement) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations
under §4.4(b). In the event that the Borrower shall have delivered the certificates or vouchers described above for any payments
made by the Borrower and such Lender receives a refund of any taxes paid by the Borrower pursuant to §4.4(b), such Lender
will pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund promptly upon receipt thereof; provided that if at any time thereafter
such Lender is required to return such refund, the Borrower shall promptly repay to such Lender the amount of such refund. Without
limitation of the foregoing, if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding
tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those
contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Sections 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations
under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or, as necessary,
to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.


 






    	63



    	 



    

 


(d)        The
obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders under this Agreement (and of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Issuing
Lender with respect to Letters of Credit and to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to Swing Loans) shall be absolute, unconditional
and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances
whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement,
any Letter of Credit or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any
improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (iii) the existence
of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may have at any time against
any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee
may be acting) or the Lenders (other than the defense of payment to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement)
or any other person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any unrelated
transaction; (iv) any draft, demand, certificate, statement or any other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving
to be insufficient, forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect
whatsoever; (v) any breach of any agreement between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and any beneficiary or
transferee of any Letter of Credit; (vi) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued,
including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (vii) payment by the Issuing Lender under any
Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft, demand, certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms
of such Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part
of the Issuing Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods;
(viii) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit;
(ix) the legality, validity, form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (x) the failure of any payment by Issuing
Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in Issuing Lender’s good faith judgment, such payment is determined
to be appropriate); (xi) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any
of the Loan Documents; (xii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (xiii) any other circumstance or happening
whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.


 


§4.5       Computations.
All computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year (or a 365
day year in the case of Base Rate Loans) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition
of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The Outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities as reflected
on the records of the Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount absent manifest error.


 


§4.6       Suspension
of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate Loan,
the Agent shall determine that adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or
the Agent shall reasonably determine that LIBOR will not accurately and fairly reflect the cost of the Lenders making or maintaining
LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive
and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders absent manifest error) to the Borrower and the Lenders. In such event (a) any
Loan Request with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate
Loan and (b) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto,
become a Base Rate Loan, and the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent determines
that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, whereupon the Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the
Lenders.


 






    	64



    	 



    

 


§4.7       Illegality.
Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty or directive or the interpretation
or application thereof shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over a
Lender or its LIBOR Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such
Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Agent and the Borrower and thereupon (a) the commitment of
the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans then outstanding shall be
converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans or within
such earlier period as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before giving such notice, the applicable Lender
shall designate a different lending office if such designation will void the need for giving such notice and will not, in the
judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or increase any costs payable by the Borrower
hereunder.


 


§4.8       Additional
Interest. If any LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a
date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has
been accelerated as provided in §12.1, the Borrower will pay to the Agent upon demand for the account of the applicable Lenders
in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (or to the Swing Loan Lender with respect to a Swing Loan), in addition
to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, the Breakage Costs. The Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges
the following: (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of LIBOR
as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a LIBOR Rate Loan; (ii) LIBOR is used merely as a reference in determining
such rate; and (iii) the Borrower has accepted LIBOR as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage
Costs. The Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or
match funds.


 


§4.9       Additional
Costs, Etc.. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any present or future applicable law, which expression, as
used herein, includes statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by any Governmental Authority charged
with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests, directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time
to time hereafter made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Agent by any Governmental Authority (whether or not having
the force of law), shall:


 


(a)        subject
any Lender or the Agent to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding of any nature with respect to this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or the Loans (other than taxes based upon
or measured by the gross receipts, income or profits of such Lender or the Agent or its franchise tax), or


 


(b)        materially
change the basis of taxation (except for changes in taxes on gross receipts, income or profits or its franchise tax) of payments
to any Lender of the principal of or the interest on any Loans or any other amounts payable to any Lender under this Agreement
or the other Loan Documents, or


 


(c)        impose
or increase or render applicable any special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, reserve, assessment, liquidity, capital
adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not having the force of law and which are not already reflected in any amounts
payable by the Borrower hereunder) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, or loans by, or commitments of
an office of any Lender, or


 






    	65



    	 



    

 


(d)        impose
on any Lender or the Agent any other conditions, cost, expense or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents,
the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or
such Lender’s Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is:


 


(i)        to
increase the cost to any Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending, continuing, converting or maintaining any of
the Loans, the Letters of Credit or such Lender’s Commitment, or


 


(ii)       to
reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to any Lender or the Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s
Commitment or any of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, or


 


(iii)      to
require any Lender or the Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which
payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received
by such Lender or the Agent from the Borrower hereunder, then, and in each such case, the Borrower will, within fifteen (15) days
of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion
therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Agent such additional amounts as such Lender or the Agent shall determine in good
faith to be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest
or other sum. Each Lender and the Agent in determining such amounts may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally
applied by such Lender or the Agent. The Borrower’s obligations under this §4.9 shall survive the resignation or replacement
of the Agent or any assignment of rights, by or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all of the Obligations and the Hedge Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall
not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this §4.9 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180
days prior to the date of such Lender’s demand.


 


Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules guidelines or directives thereunder
or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements,
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities,
in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law, rule, regulation or guidelines or the interpretation
thereof for the purposes of this Section regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.


 






    	66



    	 



    

 


§4.10       Capital
Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender determines that (a) the adoption of or change in any law, rule, regulation
or guideline regarding capital or liquidity (including, without limitation, on account of Basel III) requirements for banks or
bank holding companies or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the
administration thereof, or (b) compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline, request or
directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law), has
the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s
commitment to make Loans or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or holding company
could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such holding
company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity position and assuming the full utilization
of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then such Lender may notify the Borrower thereof.
The Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is
determined, upon presentation by such Lender of a statement of the amount setting forth the Lender’s calculation thereof.
In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender.
The Borrower’s obligations under this §4.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment
of rights, by or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge
of all of the Obligations and the Hedge Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate
any Lender pursuant to this §4.10 for any such amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date of such Lender’s
demand. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all
requests, rules guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives
promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar
authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be
a change in law, rule, regulation or guidelines or the interpretation thereof for the purposes of this Section regardless of the
date enacted, adopted or issued.


 


§4.11       Breakage
Costs. The Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs required to be paid by them pursuant to this Agreement and incurred from
time to time by any Lender upon demand within fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice from Agent, or such earlier date
as may be required by this Agreement.


 


§4.12       Default
Interest. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not the
Agent or the Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans, all principal of the Loans and, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, overdue installments of interest, shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to two percent
(2.0%) above an amount equal to the sum of the Base Rate plus the Revolving Credit Applicable Margin (the “Default Rate”),
until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment) and the fee payable with respect to Letters of Credit
shall be increased to a rate equal to two percent (2.0%) above the Letter of Credit fee that would otherwise be applicable to
such time, or if any of such amounts shall exceed the maximum rate permitted by law, then at the maximum rate permitted by law.


 


§4.13       Certificate.
A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, §4.9, §4.10, §4.11 or §4.12 and a reasonably
detailed explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or the Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive
in the absence of manifest error.


 






    	67



    	 



    

 


§4.14       Limitation
on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, all agreements between
or among the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby
limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall
the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If,
from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the
interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance
the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an
amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the
payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall
be refunded to the Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations
(including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed
the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This Section shall control all agreements between or among the Borrower, the Lenders
and the Agent.


 


§4.15       Certain
Provisions Relating to Increased Costs and Non-Funding Lenders. If a Lender gives notice of the existence of the circumstances
set forth in §4.7 or any Lender requests compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more
of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid to such Lender under
this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10, then, upon request of the Borrower, such Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable
efforts in a manner consistent with such institution’s practice in connection with loans like the Loan of such Lender to
eliminate, mitigate or reduce amounts that would otherwise be payable by the Borrower under the foregoing provisions, provided
that such action would not be otherwise prejudicial to such Lender, including, without limitation, by designating another
of such Lender’s offices, branches or affiliates; the Borrower agreeing to pay all reasonably incurred costs and expenses
incurred by such Lender in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Default
or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if any Lender (a) has given notice of the existence of the
circumstances set forth in §4.7 or has requested payment or compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant
to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b) (as a result of the imposition of U.S. withholding taxes on amounts paid
to such Lender under this Agreement), §4.9 or §4.10 and following the request of the Borrower has been unable to take
the steps described above to mitigate such amounts (each, an “Affected Lender”) or (b) has failed to make available
to Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or participation in a Letter of Credit or Swing Loan and such failure has not been cured
(a “Non-Funding Lender”), then, within thirty (30) days after such notice or request for payment or compensation or
failure to fund, as applicable, the Borrower shall have the one-time right as to such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as
applicable, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender,
as applicable, within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice or failure to fund, as applicable, to elect to cause the Affected
Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders
that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based
upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable (or if any of such Lenders
does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by the Agent after
consultation with the Borrower so long as no Default or Event of Default exists thereunder). In the event that the Lenders do
not elect to acquire all of the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment, then the Agent shall endeavor
to obtain a new Lender to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Affected Lender or
Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s interest in the Obligations and its
rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding
Lender, as applicable, shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. The
purchase price for the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding
and owed by the Borrower to the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, including principal, and all accrued and
unpaid interest or fees.

§5.         UNENCUMBERED
ASSET POOL.


 


§5.1       Unsecured
Obligations. The Lenders have agreed to make the Loans to the Borrower and issue Letters of Credit for the account of the
Borrower on an unsecured basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to the terms of the
Guaranty.


 


§5.2       Initial
Unencumbered Asset Pool. As of the Closing Date, the parties hereto agree that the Real Estate identified on Schedule 1.6

Asset Pool Property is Real Estate that does not satisfy the requirements in clauses (a)-(e) of the definition of “Eligible
Real Estate” or in §7.18(a), it shall cease to be included in the calculation of Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability
if it fails to satisfy any such requirements in addition to those it failed to satisfy on the Closing Date.


 


§5.3       Additional
Subsidiary Guarantors. In the event that the Borrower shall request that certain Real Estate of a Subsidiary of Parent Company
be included in the Unencumbered Asset Pool and such Real Estate is approved for inclusion in the Unencumbered Asset Pool in accordance
with the terms hereof, Parent Company shall cause each such Subsidiary (and any entity having an interest in such Subsidiary of
Parent Company unless not required by the Agent) that directly or indirectly owns or that provides services to the Real Estate
similar to those provided by QTS Metro TRS at the Metro Property or which receives consideration from a tenant or licensee of
such Real Estate, to execute and deliver to Agent a Guarantor Joinder Agreement, and such Subsidiary shall become an “Additional
Subsidiary Guarantor” hereunder. In addition, in the event any Subsidiary of the Borrower shall constitute a Material Subsidiary,
the Borrower shall cause such Subsidiary, as a condition to such Subsidiary’s becoming a guarantor or other obligor with
respect to such other Unsecured Debt described therein, cause each such Subsidiary to execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement,
and such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. Each such Additional Subsidiary Guarantor shall be specifically
authorized, in accordance with its respective organizational documents, to guarantee the Obligations and the Hedge Obligations
and become a party to the Contribution Agreement. Parent Company shall further cause all representations, covenants and agreements
in the Loan Documents with respect to the Borrower and Guarantors to be true and correct with respect to each such Additional
Subsidiary Guarantor, and the schedules to this Agreement shall be updated to reflect the addition of such Subsidiary as a Guarantor.
Without limiting the foregoing, each such Subsidiary shall be in compliance with the representations contained in §6.30,
which may not be waived without the written consent of each Lender. In connection with the delivery of any Guarantor Joinder Agreement,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent such organizational agreements, resolutions, consents, opinions and other documents and
instruments as the Agent may reasonably require.

remains in compliance with the covenants set forth in §9, the Agent shall remove Real Estate from the Unencumbered Asset
Pool in connection with a sale, other disposition or refinance upon the request of the Borrower subject to and upon the following

of Parent Company that is a Guarantor shall have been removed from the Unencumbered Asset Pool in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement (or were never part of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties), and (b) such Subsidiary Guarantor will not, upon
giving effect to such requested release, be a guarantor of or otherwise liable with respect to any other Unsecured Debt of the
Parent Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the type described in the definition of Material Subsidiary which would require it
to be a Guarantor, then such Guarantor shall be released by Agent from liability under the Guaranty. The provisions of this §5.5
shall not apply to any Subsidiary of Parent Company which still owns or services an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property or any direct
or indirect interest in an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property.

time to time such other financial data and information in the possession of the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries
(including without limitation auditors’ management letters, status of litigation or investigations against the Borrower or

The Borrower shall cooperate with the Agent
in connection with the publication of certain materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower. Documents
required to be delivered pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Agent and the
Lenders (collectively, “Information Materials”) pursuant to this Section and the Borrower shall designate Information
Materials (a) that are either available to the public or not material with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any
of their respective securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws, as “Public Information”
and (b) all other information shall be considered “Private Information.” Any material to be delivered pursuant to this
§7.4 may be delivered electronically directly to Agent and the Lenders provided that such material is in a format reasonably
acceptable to Agent, and such material shall be deemed to have been delivered to Agent and the Lenders upon Agent’s receipt
thereof. Upon the request of Agent, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall deliver paper copies of the requested documents to Agent
and the Lenders. The Borrower and the Guarantors authorize Agent and Arranger to disseminate any such materials, including without
limitation the Information Materials through the use of Intralinks, SyndTrak or any other electronic information dissemination
system (an “Electronic System”). Any such Electronic System is provided “as is” and “as available.”
The Agent and the Arranger do not warrant the adequacy of any Electronic System and expressly disclaim liability for errors or
omissions in any notice, demand, communication, information or other material provided by or on behalf of Borrower that is distributed
over or by any such Electronic System (“Communications”). No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including,
without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or
freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by Agent or the Arranger in connection with the Communications or the Electronic
System. In no event shall the Agent, the Arranger or any of their directors, officers, employees, agents or attorneys have any
liability to the Borrower or the Guarantors, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, including, without limitation,
direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising
out of the Borrower’s, any Guarantors’, the Agent’s or any Arranger's transmission of Communications through
the Electronic System, and the Borrower and the Guarantors release Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders from any liability in connection
therewith. Certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material
non-public information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or its Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of
the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities.
The Borrower hereby agrees that it will identify that portion of the Information Materials that may be distributed to the Public
Lenders and that (i) all such Information Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a
minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking Information
Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Agent, the Lenders and the Arranger to treat
such Information Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries,
its Affiliates or their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however,
that to the extent such Information Materials constitute confidential information, they shall be treated as provided in §18.7);
(iii) all Information Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of any electronic
dissemination system designated “Public Investor” or a similar designation; and (iv) the Agent and the Arranger shall
treat any Information Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of any
electronic dissemination system not designated “Public Investor” or a similar designation.

order that the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder, the Borrower,
the Guarantors or such Subsidiary will immediately take or cause to be taken all steps necessary to obtain such authorization,
consent, approval, permit or license and furnish the Agent and the Lenders with evidence thereof. The Borrower and Guarantors

or any officer of Parent Company or its Subsidiaries becomes aware of any such disqualification, the Borrower shall deliver to
the Agent a certificate reflecting such disqualification, together with the identity of the disqualified asset, a statement as
to whether any Default or Event of Default arises as a result of such disqualification, and a calculation of the Unencumbered Asset
Pool Availability attributable to such asset. Notwithstanding any failure by Borrower to notify Agent of such disqualification,

funding is itself the subject of territorial sanctions under applicable Sanctions Laws and Regulations, (ii) in any manner that

The Borrower shall:


 


(i)          in
the event of any change in Environmental Laws governing the assessment, release or removal of Hazardous Substances, take all reasonable
action (including, without limitation, the conducting of engineering tests at the sole expense of the Borrower) to confirm that
no Hazardous Substances are or ever were Released or disposed of on any Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties in violation of the
applicable Environmental Law as so changed; and


 


(ii)         if
any Release or disposal of Hazardous Substances which any Person may be legally obligated to contain, correct or otherwise remediate
or which may otherwise expose it to liability shall occur or shall have occurred on any Unencumbered Asset Pool Property (including
without limitation any such Release or disposal occurring prior to the acquisition or leasing of such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property
by the Borrower), the Borrower shall, after obtaining knowledge thereof, cause the prompt containment and removal of such Hazardous
Substances and remediation of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Property in full compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; provided,
that the Borrower shall be deemed to be in compliance with Environmental Laws for the purpose of this clause (ii) so long as it
or a responsible third party with sufficient financial resources is taking reasonable action to remediate or manage any event of
noncompliance to the satisfaction of the Agent and no action shall have been commenced by any enforcement agency. The Agent may
engage its own Environmental Engineer to review the environmental assessments and the compliance with the covenants contained herein.


 


At any time after an
Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing hereunder the Agent may at its election (and will at the request of the
Required Lenders) obtain such environmental assessments of any or all of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties prepared by an
Environmental Engineer as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous
Substances are present in the soil or water at or adjacent to any such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property and (ii) whether the
use and operation of any such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property complies with all Environmental Laws to the extent required by the
Loan Documents. Additionally, at any time that the Agent or the Required Lenders shall have reasonable grounds to believe that
a Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Substances which any Person may be legally obligated to contain, correct or otherwise
remediate or which otherwise may expose such Person to liability may have occurred, relating to any Unencumbered Asset Pool Property,
or that any of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties is not in compliance with Environmental Laws to the extent required by the
Loan Documents, the Borrower shall promptly upon the request of Agent obtain and deliver to Agent such environmental assessments
of such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property prepared by an Environmental Engineer as may be reasonably necessary or advisable for
the purpose of evaluating or confirming (i) whether any Hazardous Substances are present in the soil or water at or adjacent
to such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property at levels that would require remediation under applicable Environmental Law and (ii) whether
the use and operation of such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property comply with all Environmental Laws to the extent required by the
Loan Documents. Environmental assessments may include detailed visual inspections of such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property including,
without limitation, any and all storage areas, storage tanks, drains, dry wells and leaching areas, and the taking of soil samples,
as well as such other investigations or analyses as are reasonably necessary or appropriate for a complete determination of the
compliance of such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property and the use and operation thereof with all applicable Environmental Laws. All
environmental assessments contemplated by this §8.6 shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower.

§8.7       Distributions.


 


(a)          Neither
Borrower nor REIT shall pay any Distribution to its respective partners, members or other owners, if such Distribution is in excess
of the amount which when added to the amount of all other Distributions paid by Borrower and REIT in the same calendar quarter
and the preceding three (3) calendar quarters (without duplication of any Distribution paid by Borrower to REIT from which REIT
pays a Distribution to its owners), would exceed the sum of ninety-five percent (95%) of REIT’s Funds from Operations for
such period; provided that the limitations contained in this §8.7(a) shall not preclude (i) Parent Company and the
Borrower from making Distributions in an amount equal to the minimum distributions required under the Code to maintain the REIT
Status of REIT following the date that REIT elects to be a real estate investment trust under the Code, as evidenced by a certification
of the principal financial or accounting officer of Parent Company containing calculations in detail reasonably satisfactory in
form and substance to the Agent, and (ii) REIT from redeeming partnership interests of Borrower in exchange for shares of common
stock (or other comparable equity interests) of REIT and any such redemption shall not be included in the calculation of whether
Distributions have exceeded ninety-five percent (95%) of REIT's Funds from Operations for any period.


 


(b)          In
the event that an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower and REIT shall make no Distributions to
its respective partners, members or other owners, other than if REIT exists and has elected REIT Status, Distributions in an amount
equal to the minimum distributions required under the Code to maintain the REIT Status of REIT, as evidenced by a certification
of the principal financial or accounting officer of Parent Company containing calculations in detail reasonably satisfactory in
form and substance to the Agent.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
the foregoing, at any time when an Event of Default under §12.1(a), (b), (h), (i) or (j) shall have occurred or the maturity
of the Obligations has been accelerated, the Borrower and REIT shall not make any Distributions whatsoever, directly or indirectly.


 


(d)          The
foregoing provisions in this §8.7 shall not limit the ability of REIT or the Borrower (i) to retain, acquire, relinquish or
sell stock awarded to its employees pursuant to equity compensation programs in the ordinary course of business in order to pay
applicable withholding tax obligations of such employee or (ii) to issue, to obtain the surrender of, or relinquish Equity Interests

fide arm’s length transaction. Neither the Borrower, any Guarantor nor any Subsidiary thereof shall sell, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any Real Estate in one transaction or a series of transactions during any four (4) consecutive fiscal quarters in excess
of an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of Gross Asset Value, except as the result of a condemnation or casualty and except
for the granting of Permitted Liens, as applicable, without the prior written consent of Agent and the Required Lenders. For the
purpose of calculating the twenty-five percent (25%) threshold in the preceding sentence, in the event of any sale, transfer or
other disposition of any Real Estate by Parent Company or any Subsidiary to any Person which is a non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary,
only the portion of the Real Estate in which the Borrower or the transferring Subsidiary does not retain an interest shall be counted
toward such threshold. A transfer from Parent Company or any Subsidiary to a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower or among Wholly
Owned Subsidiaries of the Borrower shall not count against the twenty five percent (25%) limit.

to, (a) subject to §12.5, prepay, redeem, defease, purchase or otherwise retire the principal amount or pay any termination,
breakage or similar payments under Derivative Contracts, in whole or in part, of any Indebtedness other than the Obligations and
the Hedge Obligations after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default; provided, that the foregoing
shall not prohibit (x) the prepayment of Indebtedness which is financed solely from the proceeds of a new loan which would
otherwise be permitted by the terms of §8.1; and (y) the prepayment, redemption, defeasance or other retirement of the
principal of Indebtedness secured by Real Estate which is satisfied solely from the proceeds of a sale of the Real Estate securing
such Indebtedness; and (b) modify any document evidencing any Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) to accelerate the
maturity date of such Indebtedness after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default.


 


§8.11     Zoning
and Contract Changes and Compliance. The Borrower shall not initiate or consent to any zoning reclassification of any of the
Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties or seek any variance under any existing zoning ordinance or use or permit the use of any Unencumbered
Asset Pool Property in any manner that could result in such use becoming a non-conforming use under any zoning ordinance or any
other applicable land use law, rule or regulation without the prior written consent of Agent. The Borrower shall not initiate any
change in any laws, requirements of governmental authorities or obligations created by private contracts (other than the Leases,
which are governed by §7.13) which now or hereafter may materially adversely affect the ownership, occupancy, use or operation
of any Unencumbered Asset Pool Property.

or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate (but not including any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower), except (a)
transactions pursuant to the reasonable requirements of the business of such Person and upon fair and reasonable terms which are
substantially no less favorable to such Person than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person
that is not an Affiliate and (b) the agreements described in §7.18(a)(i)(B)(1) which have been approved by Agent.

Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries to the PBGC or such Guaranteed Pension Plan in an aggregate amount exceeding

(p)          any
Change of Control shall occur;


 


(q)          an

    	110



    	 



    

 


(r)          notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary (including without limitation §12.1(g)), the Borrower and the Guarantors hereby expressly
agree that any “Event of Default” (as defined in the Equipment Loan Documents) (which shall be deemed to include maturity
of the debt evidenced and secured by the Equipment Loan Documents or any other occurrence which would give the Equipment Lender
the right to exercise remedies under the Equipment Loan Documents) shall constitute and be deemed to be an Event of Default under
this Agreement for which no right to cure shall be available. Without limiting the foregoing, an “Event of Default”
under the Equipment Loan Documents shall conclusively be deemed to have occurred upon the declaration, statement or notice from
the Equipment Lender’s as to the existence or occurrence of an “Event of Default” under any of the Equipment
Loan Documents;


 


(s)          [Intentionally
Omitted];


 


(t)          REIT
fails to perform any term, covenant or agreement contained in §7.12 which it is required to perform;


 


(u)          Any
default, material misrepresentation or breach of warranty in the Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement by the Authority or
the subordinate lender that is the holder of the Bond;


 


then, and in any such event, the Agent
may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice in writing to the Borrower declare all amounts owing with respect
to this Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit and the other Loan Documents to be, and they shall thereupon forthwith become,
immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by the Borrower; provided that in the event of any Event of Default specified in §12.1(h), §12.1(i) or §12.1(j),
all such amounts shall become immediately due and payable automatically and without any requirement of presentment, demand, protest
or other notice of any kind from any of the Lenders or the Agent. Upon demand by Agent or the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders
in their absolute and sole discretion after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and regardless of whether the conditions precedent
in this Agreement for a Revolving Credit Loan have been satisfied, the Revolving Credit Lenders will cause a Revolving Credit Loan
to be made in the undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit. The proceeds of any such Revolving Credit Loan will be pledged to and
held by Agent as security for any amounts that become payable under the Letters of Credit and all other Obligations and Hedge Obligations.
In the alternative, if demanded by Agent in its absolute and sole discretion after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower
will Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Liabilities (in an amount equal to the amount of all undrawn Letters of Credit). Such
amounts will be pledged to and held by Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as security for any amounts that become payable under
the Letters of Credit and all other Obligations and Hedge Obligations in accordance with §2.12. Upon any draws under Letters
of Credit, at Agent’s sole discretion, Agent may apply any such amounts to the repayment of amounts drawn thereunder and
upon the expiration of the Letters of Credit any remaining amounts will be applied to the payment of all other Obligations and
Hedge Obligations or if there are no outstanding Obligations and Hedge Obligations and Lenders have no further obligation to make
Revolving Credit Loans or issue Letters of Credit or if such excess no longer exists, such proceeds deposited by the Borrower will
be released to the Borrower.

§12.2     Certain
Cure Periods; Limitation of Cure Periods.


 


(a)          Notwithstanding
anything contained in §12.1 to the contrary, (i) no Event of Default shall exist hereunder upon the occurrence of any
failure described in §12.1(b) in the event that the Borrower cures such Default within five (5) Business Days after the date
such payment is due, provided, however, that Borrower shall not be entitled to receive more than two (2) grace periods
in the aggregate pursuant to this clause (i) in any period of 365 days ending on the date of any such occurrence of Default, and
provided further that no such cure period shall apply to any payments due upon the maturity of the Notes, and (ii) no
Event of Default shall exist hereunder upon the occurrence of any failure described in §12.1(e) in the event that the Borrower
cures such Default within thirty (30) days following receipt of written notice of such default, provided that the provisions
of this clause (ii) shall not pertain to any default consisting of a failure to comply with §7.4(c), §7.14, §7.19,
§7.22, §8.1, §8.2, §8.3, §8.4, §8.5, §8.7, §8.8, §8.9, §8.10, §8.14 or to
any Default excluded from any provision of cure of defaults contained in any other of the Loan Documents.


 


(b)          In
the event that there shall occur any Default that affects only certain Unencumbered Asset Pool Properties or the owner(s) thereof,
then the Borrower may elect to cure such Default (so long as no other Default or Event of Default would arise as a result) by electing
to have Agent remove such Unencumbered Asset Pool Property from the calculation of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability and
by reducing the outstanding Loans by the amount of the Unencumbered Asset Pool Availability attributable to such Unencumbered Asset
Pool Property, in which event such removal and reduction shall be completed within five (5) days after receipt of notice of such
Default from the Agent or the Required Lenders.


 


(c)          Notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any reference in this Agreement or any other Loan Document
to “the continuance of a default” or “the continuance of an Event of Default” or any similar phrase shall
not create or be deemed to create any right of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party to cure any default following the
expiration of any applicable grace or notice and cure period.


 


§12.3     Termination
of Commitments. If any one or more Events of Default specified in §12.1(h), §12.1(i) or §12.1(j) shall occur,
then immediately and without any action on the part of the Agent or any Lender any unused portion of the credit hereunder shall
terminate and the Lenders shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit to the Borrower. If any
other Event of Default shall have occurred, the Agent may, and upon the election of the Majority Revolving Credit Lenders shall,
by notice to the Borrower terminate the obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans and issue Letters of Credit to the Borrower.
No termination under this §12.3 shall relieve the Borrower or the Guarantors of their obligations to the Lenders arising under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.


 




    	112



    	 



    

 


§12.4     Remedies.
In case any one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not the Lenders shall have accelerated
the maturity of the Loans pursuant to §12.1, the Agent on behalf of the Lenders may, and upon the direction of the Required
Lenders shall, proceed to protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes and/or any of the other
Loan Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, including to the full extent permitted by applicable
law the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the obtaining
of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if any amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, the enforcement
of the payment thereof. No remedy herein conferred upon the Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any
other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now
or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement
providing that the Loans may be evidenced by multiple Notes in favor of the Lenders, the Lenders acknowledge and agree that only
the Agent may exercise any remedies arising by reason of a Default or Event of Default. If the Borrower or any Guarantor fails
to perform any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Equipment Loan Documents,
any Ground Lease, any Lease or other contract relating to an Unencumbered Asset Pool Property beyond any applicable period for
notice and cure, Agent may itself perform, or cause to be performed, any agreement or covenant of such Person contained in this
Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, any Ground Lease, any Lease or other contract relating to an Unencumbered Asset Pool
Property which such Person shall fail to perform, or Lenders may purchase the Equipment Loan and the Equipment Loan Documents,
and the out-of-pocket costs of such performance or purchase of the Equipment Loan and Equipment Loan Documents, together with any
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred (including attorneys’ fees
incurred in any appeal) by Agent in connection therewith, shall be payable by the Borrower and/or Guarantors upon demand and shall
constitute a part of the Obligations and shall if not paid within five (5) days after demand bear interest at the rate for overdue
amounts as set forth in this Agreement. In the event that all or any portion of the Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law,
the Borrower and the Guarantors shall pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees.


 


§12.5     Distribution
of Proceeds. In the event that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies are
received in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise with respect to the realization upon any
assets of the Borrower or Guarantors, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:


 


(a)          First,
to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of the Agent for or in respect of, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs,
expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been paid, incurred or sustained by the Agent in connection with the collection
of such monies by the Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by the Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers
and privileges of the Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision
of adequate indemnity to the Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of
the Agent or the Lenders to such monies;


 


(b)          Second,
to all other Obligations and the Hedge Obligations (including any interest, expenses or other obligations of either the Obligations
or the Hedge Obligations incurred after the commencement of a bankruptcy) in such order or preference as the Required Lenders shall
determine; provided, that (i) Swing Loans shall be repaid first, (ii) distributions in respect of such other Obligations
shall include, on a pari passu basis, any Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.3; (iii) in the event that any Lender
is a Defaulting Lender, payments to such Lender shall be governed by §2.14, (iv) except as otherwise provided in clause
(iii), Obligations owing to the Lenders with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, fees and expenses (but excluding
the Swing Loans) and the Hedge Obligations shall be made among the Lenders and the Lender Hedge Providers pro rata and as between
Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loans shall be made pro rata and (v) payment of principal on the Obligations and the Hedge Obligations
shall be made on a pari passu basis; and provided, further that the Required Lenders may in their discretion make
proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable; and


 




    	113



    	 



    

 


(c)          Third,
the excess, if any, shall be returned to the Borrower or to such other Persons as are entitled thereto.


 


§13.        SETOFF.


 


Regardless of the adequacy
of any collateral, during the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional
or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any
Lender to the Borrower or the Guarantors and any securities or other property of the Borrower or the Guarantors in the possession
of such Lender may, without notice to the Borrower or any Guarantor (any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower and
Guarantors) but with the prior written approval of Agent, be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations or the Hedge
Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing
or hereafter arising, of the Borrower or the Guarantors to such Lender. Each of the Lenders agrees with each other Lender that
if such Lender shall receive from the Borrower or a Guarantor, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or
otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender (but excluding the Swing Loan Note)
any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all of the Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all
of the Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either
by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving
in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or
any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded
and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. In the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise
any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds
and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to
the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised
such right of setoff.


 


§14.        THE
AGENT.


 


§14.1         Authorization.
The Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each of the Lenders and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and
under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to the Agent (including entering into the Equipment Intercreditor
Agreement, the Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided
that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by the Agent.
The obligations of the Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute the Agent as a trustee for any Lender or to create an agency or fiduciary
relationship. Agent shall act as the contractual representative of the Lenders hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term
“Agent”, it is understood and agreed that Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Lender
by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and is acting as an independent contractor, the duties and responsibilities
of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Borrower and any other Person
shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from the Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind the Lenders
pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.


 




    	114



    	 



    

 


§14.2     Employees
and Agents. The Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled
to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents. The Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as the Agent may reasonably determine, and all reasonable
out-of-pocket fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.


 


§14.3     No
Liability. Neither the Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them
in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable for (a) any waiver, consent or approval given or any action
taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection
herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that the
Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods or (b) any action
taken or not taken by Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable hereunder.
The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect
to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless
the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity
such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.


 


§14.4     No
Representations. The Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the
Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security
for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such
amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, or any agreement,
instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument
hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or be bound
to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or
in any of the other Loan Documents. The Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered
to it by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and
complete. The Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume
any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any
of their respective Subsidiaries, or the value of any collateral or any other assets of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of
their respective Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other
Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any
other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis
and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent’s Special Counsel has
only represented Agent and KeyBank in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney client relationship or duty of care
is between Agent’s Special Counsel and Agent or KeyBank. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel
on all matters regarding the Loan Documents.

§14.5     Payments.


 


(a)          A
payment by the Borrower or the Guarantors to the Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any
Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. The Agent agrees to distribute to each Lender not later than one Business Day
after the Agent’s receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with the Agent’s customary practices, such Lender’s
pro rata share of payments received by the Agent for the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or
in any of the other Loan Documents. In the event that the Agent fails to distribute such amounts within one Business Day as provided
above, the Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time
in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then,
until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, each payment by the Borrower hereunder shall be applied in accordance
with §2.14(d).


 


(b)          If
in the opinion of the Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under
any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making such distribution until its right to
make such distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall
adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall
have been made shall either repay to the Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over
the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.


 


§14.6     Holders
of Notes. Subject to the terms of §18, the Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser
thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent
holder, assignee or transferee.


 


§14.7     Indemnity.
The Lenders severally and ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages agree hereby to indemnify and hold
harmless the Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs,
expenses (including any expenses for which the Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower and the Guarantors as required by
§15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the
other Loan Documents, the Equipment Intercreditor Agreement and the Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement or the transactions
contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or the Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder to the extent not reimbursed
by the Borrower and the Guarantors, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by the Agent’s willful
misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable
appeal periods. The agreements in this §14.7 shall survive the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.


 




    	116



    	 



    

 


§14.8     Agent
as Lender. In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in
respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also the
Agent.


 


§14.9     Resignation.
The Agent may resign at any time by giving ten (10) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.
Any such resignation may at Agent’s option also constitute Agent’s resignation as Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender.
Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders, subject to the terms of §18.1, shall have the right to appoint as a successor
Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, any Lender or any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated
not less than “A3” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A-” or its equivalent by S&P
and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower.
If no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within ten (10) days after the retiring
Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent,
which shall be any Lender or any financial institution whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A3” or
its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A-” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not
less than $500,000,000.00. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender,
hereunder by a successor Agent, and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, such successor Agent and, if applicable,
Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring or removed Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, and the retiring or removed Agent
and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent
and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was acting as Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. If the resigning Agent shall
also resign as the Issuing Lender, such successor Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit,
if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the current Issuing
Lender, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit. Upon
any change in the Agent under this Agreement, the resigning Agent shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan
Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning Agent.

§14.10    Duties
in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not
acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, the Agent may and, if (a) so requested by the Required Lenders and (b) the
Lenders have provided to the Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages
against expenses and liabilities as the Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to exercise all or any legal and equitable
and other rights or remedies as it may have; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent shall have received
such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect
to such Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
if Agent reasonably determines payment is in the best interest of all the Lenders, Agent may without the approval of the Lenders
pay taxes and insurance premiums and spend money for maintenance, repairs or other expenses which may be necessary to be incurred
in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,500,000.00, and Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Lenders of such action. Each
Lender shall, within thirty (30) days of request therefor, pay to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of the reasonable costs
incurred by the Agent in taking any such actions hereunder to the extent that such costs shall not be promptly reimbursed to the
Agent by the Borrower or out of any collateral within such period. The Required Lenders may direct the Agent in writing as to
the method and the extent of any such exercise, the Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold the Agent harmless in accordance
with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance
with such directions, provided that the Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that the Agent reasonably
believes the Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction or commercially unreasonable
under the UCC as enacted in any applicable jurisdiction.


 


§14.11    Bankruptcy.
In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against the Borrower or any Guarantor with respect
to the Obligations, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders.
Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Required
Lenders or all of the Lenders as required by this Agreement. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate
proof of claim in any such proceedings unless Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice
from the Lenders requesting that Agent file such proof of claim.


 


§14.12    [Intentionally
Omitted.]


 


§14.13    Reliance
by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request,
certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet
website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by
an Authorized Officer. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have
been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition
hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that
such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior
to the making of such Loan. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower and/or the Guarantors),
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance
with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.


 




    	118



    	 



    

 


§14.14    Approvals.


 


(a)          If
consent is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of the Lenders, the
Majority Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Lenders is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Lender agrees to
give the Agent, within ten (10) days of receipt of the written request for action together with all reasonably requested information
related thereto requested by such Lender (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in
writing of approval or disapproval (collectively “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing
pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent that any Lender does not approve any recommendation of Agent, such Lender shall in
such notice to Agent describe the actions that would be acceptable to such Lender. If the Agent submits to the Lenders a written
request for consent with respect to this Agreement and any Lender fails to provide Directions within ten (10) days after such Lender
receives from the Agent such initial request for Directions together with all reasonably requested information related thereto,
then Agent shall make a second request for approval, which approval shall include the following in all capital, bolded, block letters
on the first page thereof:


 


“THE FOLLOWING
REQUEST REQUIRES A RESPONSE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS OF RECEIPT. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL BE DEEMED AN APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST.”


 


If the Agent submits
to such Lender a second written request to approve or disapprove such action, and a Lender fails to provide Directions within five
(5) Business Days after the Lender receives from the Agent such second request, then any Lender’s failure to respond to a
request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action.


 


(b)          In
the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Lenders and a subsequent approval on the same subject
matter is requested by Agent (a “Subsequent Approval Request”), then for the purposes of this paragraph each Lender
shall be required to respond to a Subsequent Approval Request within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request.


 


If the Agent submits
to the Lenders a Subsequent Approval Request and any Lender fails to provide Directions within five (5) Business Days after such
Lender receives from the Agent the Subsequent Approval Request, then Agent shall make a second request for approval, which approval
shall include the following in all capital, bolded, block letters on the first page thereof:


 


“THE FOLLOWING
REQUEST REQUIRES A RESPONSE WITHIN FIVE (5) BUSINESS DAYS OF RECEIPT. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL BE DEEMED AN APPROVAL OF THE REQUEST.”


 


If the Agent submits
to such Lender a second written request to approve or disapprove the Subsequent Approval Request, and the Lender fails to approve
or disapprove such Subsequent Approval Request within five (5) Business Days after the Lender receives from the Agent such second
request, then any Lender’s failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed
to constitute a Direction to take such requested action.


 




    	119



    	 



    

 


(c)          Each
request by Agent for a Direction shall include Agent’s recommended course of action or determination. Notices given by Agent
pursuant to this §14.14 may be given through the use of Intralinks, Syndtrak or another electronic information dissemination
system. Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Lenders delivering any notice, consent,
certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless Agent and such other
Lenders have otherwise been notified in writing. Notwithstanding anything in this §14.14 to the contrary, any matter requiring
all Lender’s approval or consent shall not be deemed given by any Lender’s failure to respond to any approval or consent
request within any applicable reply period.


 


§14.15    Borrower
Not Beneficiary. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent and §14.14,
the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, may not be enforced by the Borrower, and
except for the provisions of §14.9 and §14.14, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of the Borrower.


 


§14.16    Equipment
Intercreditor Agreement. The Borrower, Guarantors and the Lenders acknowledge that Agent has entered into the Equipment Intercreditor
Agreement. The Borrower and Guarantors acknowledge that the existence of the Equipment Intercreditor Agreement and the performance
by Agent and the Lenders of their obligations under the Equipment Intercreditor Agreement shall not affect, impair or release the
obligations of the Borrower or Guarantors under the Loan Documents. The Equipment Intercreditor Agreement is solely for the benefit
of Agent and the Lenders and not for the benefit of the Borrower or Guarantors, and the Borrower and Guarantors shall have no rights
thereunder or any right to insist on the performance thereof. Agent is authorized by Lenders to perform its obligations under the
Equipment Intercreditor Agreement, and each Lender agrees to be bound thereby. Any Lender may be an Equipment Lender, and the fact
that any Lender is also an Equipment Lender shall not expand or diminish the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder.


 


§14.17    Bond
Subordination and Standstill Agreement. The Borrower, Guarantors and the Lenders acknowledge that Agent has entered into the
Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement. The Borrower and Guarantors acknowledge that the existence of the Bond Subordination
and Standstill Agreement and the performance by Agent and the Lenders of their obligations under the Bond Subordination and Standstill
Agreement shall not affect, impair or release the obligations of the Borrower or Guarantors under the Loan Documents. The Bond
Subordination and Standstill Agreement is solely for the benefit of Agent and the Lenders and not for the benefit of the Borrower
or Guarantors, and the Borrower and Guarantors shall have no rights thereunder or any right to insist on the performance thereof.
Agent is authorized by Lenders to perform its obligations under the Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement, and each Lender
agrees to be bound thereby


 


§14.18    Reliance
on Hedge Provider. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with §12.5, the Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Representative”) or, in the absence of
such a Representative, upon the holder of the Hedge Obligations for a determination (which each holder of the Hedge Obligations
agrees (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Agent) of the outstanding Hedge Obligations owed to the holder thereof.
Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from such holder) to the contrary, the Agent, in acting hereunder,
shall be entitled to assume that no Hedge Obligations are outstanding.

the other Loan Documents and the other agreements and instruments mentioned herein, (b) subject to §4.9, §4.10 and §4.15,

after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods. In litigation, or the preparation therefor, the Lenders and the Agent shall
be entitled to select a single law firm as their own counsel, and if necessary, any local counsel or conflicts counsel, and in
addition to the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower and the Guarantors agree to pay promptly the reasonable out-of-pocket fees and
expenses of all such counsel. If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this §16
are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower and the Guarantors hereby agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment
in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this §16 shall survive the
repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of the Lenders hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this §16, REIT shall not have any indemnification obligations in this §16 except as and to the extent provided
in the Springing Guaranty.

delivered by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or thereto shall
be deemed to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Agent, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made
by any of them, and shall survive the making by the Lenders of any of the Loans, as herein contemplated, and shall continue in
full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Agreement or the Notes or any of the other Loan Documents remains outstanding
or any Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit the expirations of which extend beyond the Letter of Credit Expiration Date
as permitted under §2.10 and in respect to which the Borrower has satisfied the requirements of such section or §2.12,
as applicable) remain outstanding or any Lender has any obligation to make any Loans or issue any Letters of Credit. The indemnification

§18.         ASSIGNMENT
AND PARTICIPATION.


 


§18.1         Conditions
to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one or more banks or other entities (which
shall expressly exclude any natural persons) all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage and Commitment and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the
Notes held by it); provided that (a) the Agent, the Issuing Lender (with respect to assignments of Revolving Credit
Commitments only) and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower shall have each given its prior
written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that such consent shall
not be required for any assignment to another Lender, to a lender or an Affiliate of a Lender which controls, is controlled by
or is under common control with the assigning Lender or to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Lender), provided that the Borrower
shall have been deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent
within five (5) Business Days after having received noticed thereof; (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and
not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the
Revolving Credit Commitment in the event an interest in the Revolving Credit Loans is assigned, or of a constant, and not a varying,
percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loan Commitment
in the event an interest in the Term Loans is assigned, (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the
Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined) an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form of Exhibit K
annexed hereto, together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any Person
controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by, the Borrower
or any Guarantor or be to a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, (e) such assignee of a portion of the
Revolving Credit Loans shall have a net worth as of the date of such assignment of not less than $100,000,000.00 (unless otherwise
approved by Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower), (f) such assignee shall
acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or
if less, the remaining Loans of the assignor), unless waived by the Agent, and so long as no Default or Event of Default exists
hereunder, the Borrower, and (g) such assignee shall be subject to the terms of any intercreditor agreement among the Lenders
and the Agent. Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by the Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment
and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment
to the Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising
after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement, and (iii) the Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1 to reflect such assignment. In connection
with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to the Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether
such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by,
the Borrower and the Guarantors, and whether such assignee is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender. In connection
with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until,
in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments
to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases
by the assignee of participations or actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable
pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender to each of which the applicable assignee
and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting
Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full
pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall
become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest
shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.


 




    	123



    	 



    

 


§18.2         Register.
The Agent shall maintain on behalf of the Borrower a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the
“Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment Percentages of and principal
amount of the Loans owing to the Lenders from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of
manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees
to pay to the Agent a registration fee in the sum of $5,000.00.


 


§18.3         New
Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by the parties to such assignment, together with
each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register. Within five (5)
Business Days after receipt of notice of such assignment from Agent, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver
to the Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the amount
assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and, if the assigning Lender has retained some portion
of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it hereunder.
Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance
Agreement and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned
to the Borrower.


 




    	124



    	 



    

 


§18.4         Participations.
Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation
shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Lender hereunder, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant
to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, rights granted to the Lenders
under §4.8, §4.9 and §4.10, (c) such participation shall not entitle the participant to the right to approve
waivers, amendments or modifications, (d) such participant shall have no direct rights against the Borrower or the Guarantors,
(e) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (f) such participant shall not be a Person controlling,
controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by any of the Borrower or
any of the Guarantors and shall not be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender; provided, however,
such Lender may agree with the participant that it will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to (i) increase,
or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment,
(ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender
(other than pursuant to an extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to §2.15), (iii) reduce the amount
of any such payment of principal; (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon, or reduce the amount or rate
of any fee payable to an affected Lender hereunder (excluding any fee payable to any arranger or the Agent in its capacity as
administrative agent hereunder), or (v) release the Borrower or any Guarantor (except as otherwise permitted under §5.5).
Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain
a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each
participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”);
provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity
of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of creditor
or its other obligations under any Loan Documents) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish
that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United
States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes
of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent)
shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.


 


§18.5         Pledge
by Lender. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including
all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act,
12 U.S.C. §341, to the Federal Farm Credit Funding Corporation or to such other Person as the Agent may approve to secure
obligations of such Lender. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder
or under any of the other Loan Documents.


 


§18.6         No
Assignment by the Borrower or the Guarantors. Neither the Borrower nor the Guarantors shall assign or transfer any of their
rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders.


 




    	125



    	 



    

 


§18.7         Disclosure.
The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree to promptly cooperate with any Lender in connection with any proposed assignment or
participation of all or any portion of its Commitment. The Borrower and the Guarantors each agree that in addition to disclosures
made in accordance with standard banking practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant to this
Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder other than a Disclosed Competitor in accordance
with the provisions of the following sentence. Each Lender agrees for itself that it shall use reasonable efforts in accordance
with its customary procedures to hold confidential all non-public information obtained from the Borrower or Guarantors, and shall
use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to not disclose such information to any other Person, it being
understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender may make (a) disclosures to its participants (provided
such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (b) disclosures to its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates,
partners, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors of such Lender (provided that such Persons who
are not employees of such Lender are advised of the provision of this §18.7), (c) disclosures customarily provided or
reasonably required by any potential or actual bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or their respective directors, officers,
employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with a potential or
actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided such Persons are advised of the
provisions of this §18.7), (d) disclosures to bank regulatory authorities or self-regulatory bodies with jurisdiction
over such Lender, or (e) disclosures required or requested by any other governmental authority or representative thereof or
pursuant to legal process; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify
the Borrower of any request by any governmental authority or representative thereof prior to disclosure (other than any such request
in connection with any examination of such Lender by such government authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information
prior to disclosure of such information, (f) disclosures with the prior written consent of the Borrower, and (g) disclosures made
in connection with any enforcement by Agent or the Lenders of the Loan Documents. In addition, each Lender may make disclosure
of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisors
(so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisors agree to be bound by the provisions of this §18.7). Non-public
information shall not include any information which is or subsequently becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure
of such information by a Lender, or prior to the delivery to such Lender is within the possession of such Lender if such information
is not known by such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to the Borrower
or the Guarantors, or is disclosed with the prior approval of the Borrower or Guarantors. Nothing herein shall prohibit the disclosure
of non-public information to the extent necessary to enforce the Loan Documents. In addition, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose
the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the
lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the
other Loan Documents, and the Commitments.


 


§18.8         Amendments
to Loan Documents. Upon any such assignment or participation, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall, upon the request of the
Agent, enter into such documents as may be reasonably required by the Agent to modify the Loan Documents to reflect such assignment
or participation.


 




    	126



    	 



    

 


§18.9         Mandatory
Assignment. In the event the Borrower requests that certain amendments, modifications or waivers be made to this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents which request requires the prior approval of all Lenders or all affected Lenders and which request
is approved by the Required Lenders but is not approved by all Lenders or all affected Lenders (any such non-consenting Lender
shall hereafter be referred to as the “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, within thirty (30) Business Days after the Borrower’s
receipt of notice of such disapproval by such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall have the right as to such Non-Consenting
Lender, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to the Agent and the Non-Consenting Lender within thirty (30) Business
Days of receipt of such notice, to elect to cause the Non-Consenting Lender to transfer its Commitment. The Agent shall promptly
notify the remaining Lenders which are not Non-Consenting Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation,
to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Non-Consenting Lender
(or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as
approved by the Agent). In the event that the Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment,
then the Agent shall endeavor to find a new Lender or Lenders to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the
Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender, the Non-Consenting Lender’s interests in the Obligations and its rights hereunder
and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase except that its indemnification rights hereunder shall survive,
and the Non-Consenting Lender shall promptly execute and deliver any and all documents reasonably requested by Agent to surrender
and transfer such interest, including, without limitation, an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit K and such Non-Consenting Lender’s original Note. The purchase price for the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment
shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by Borrower to the Non-Consenting Lender, including principal and all accrued
and unpaid interest or fees, plus any applicable amounts payable pursuant to §4.8 which would be owed to such Non-Consenting
Lender if the Loans were to be repaid in full on the date of such purchase of the Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment (provided
that the Borrower may pay to such Non-Consenting Lender any interest, fees or other amounts (other than principal) owing to such
Non-Consenting Lender)


 


§18.10         Titled
Agents. The Titled Agents shall not have any additional rights or obligations under the Loan Documents, except for those rights,
if any, as a Lender.

to any other Lender which
is a party hereto, at the address for such Lender set forth on its signature page hereto, and to any Lender which may hereafter
become a party to this Agreement, at such address as may be designated by such Lender. Each Notice shall be effective upon being
personally delivered or upon being sent by overnight courier or upon being deposited in the United States Mail as aforesaid, or
if transmitted by telecopy is permitted, upon being sent and confirmation of receipt. The time period in which a response to such
Notice must be given or any action taken with respect thereto (if any), however, shall commence to run from the date of receipt
if personally delivered or sent by overnight courier, or if so deposited in the United States Mail, the earlier of three (3) Business
Days following such deposit or the date of receipt as disclosed on the return receipt. Rejection or other refusal to accept or
the inability to deliver because of changed address for which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice sent.
By giving at least fifteen (15) days’ prior Notice thereof, the Borrower, Guarantors, a Lender or Agent shall have the right
from time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses and each shall have the
right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.


 


Loan Documents and
notices under the Loan Documents may, with Agent’s approval, be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile and by signatures
delivered in “PDF” format by electronic mail. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject
to applicable law, have the same force and effect as an original copy with manual signatures and shall be binding on the Borrower,
the Guarantors, Agent and Lenders. Agent may also require that any such documents and signature delivered by facsimile or “PDF”
format by electronic mail be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or
deliver any such manually-signed original shall not affect the effectiveness of any facsimile or “PDF” document or
signature.


 


Notices and other communications
to the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including
e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply
to notices to any Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to §2 if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the
Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. The Agent or the Borrower may,
in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures
approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Agent
otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s
receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available,
return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall
be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e mail address as described in the foregoing clause
(i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that,
for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, e-mail or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours
of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business
day for the recipient.

§20.         RELATIONSHIP.


 


Neither the Agent nor
any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or fiduciary duty to the Borrower, the Guarantors or their respective Subsidiaries
(collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Loan Parties”) arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, and the relationship between each
Lender and Agent, and the Borrower and the Guarantors is solely that of a lender and borrower, and nothing contained herein or
in any of the other Loan Documents shall in any manner be construed as making the parties hereto partners, joint venturers or any
other relationship other than lender and borrower. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes
of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their
stockholders and/or their affiliates. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan
Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions
between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process
leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders
or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto)
or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party,
its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly
set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan
Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted
its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent
judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that
any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in
connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC..


 


Except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement may be given, and any term
of this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance
by the Borrower or the Guarantors of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or
Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but
only with, the written consent of the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following may occur without
the written consent of each Lender: (a) a reduction in the rate of interest on the Notes (other than a reduction or waiver
of default interest); (b) an increase in the amount of the Commitments of the Lenders (except as provided in §2.11 and
§18.1); (c) a forgiveness, reduction or waiver of the principal of any unpaid Loan or any interest thereon or fee payable
under the Loan Documents; (d) a reduction of a fee or change in the amount of any fee payable to a Lender hereunder; (e) the
postponement of any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Loan, or any fee payable to the affected Lenders
(excluding any fee payable to any arranger or the Agent in its capacity as administrative agent hereunder); (f) an extension
of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (except as provided in §2.15) or the Term Loan Maturity Date; (g) a change in the
manner of distribution of any payments to the Lenders or the Agent; (h) the release of the Borrower, any Guarantor or the

Loan made by the Borrower other than based on its Commitment Percentage; (k) an amendment to this §27; or (l) an
amendment of any provision of this Agreement or the Loan Documents which requires the approval of all of the Majority Revolving
Credit Lenders or the Required Lenders to require a lesser number of Lenders to approve such action. The provisions of §14
may not be amended without the written consent of the Agent. There shall be no amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
in the Loan Documents with respect to Swing Loans without the consent of the Swing Loan Lender, nor any amendment, modification
or waiver of any provision in the Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit without the consent of the Issuing Lender. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders, the Required Lenders, the
Majority Revolving Credit Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than
Defaulting Lenders, except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender,

    	132



    	 



    

 


Any amendment of the
Equipment Intercreditor Agreement or the Bond Subordination and Standstill Agreement or waiver of the terms thereof shall require
the written consent of the Required Lenders. No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair
any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any
right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. No notice to or demand upon any of the Borrower or
the Guarantors shall entitle the Borrower or the Guarantors to other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.


 


§28.         SEVERABILITY.


 


The provisions of this
Agreement are severable, and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in
any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such
jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision
of this Agreement in any jurisdiction.


 


§29.         TIME
OF THE ESSENCE.


 


Time is of the essence
with respect to each and every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantors under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents.


 


§30.         NO
UNWRITTEN AGREEMENTS.


 


THE LOAN DOCUMENTS
REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT
ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS OF THE AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARE SET FORTH BELOW.


 


§31.         REPLACEMENT
NOTES.


 


Upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and in the case of any such
loss, theft or destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or, in the case of
any such mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the applicable Note, the Borrower will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof,
a replacement Note, identical in form and substance to the applicable Note and dated as of the date of the applicable Note and
upon such execution and delivery all references in the Loan Documents to such Note shall be deemed to refer to such replacement
Note.


 




    	133



    	 



    

 


§32.         NO
THIRD PARTIES BENEFITED.


 


This Agreement and
the other Loan Documents are made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the Guarantors, the
Lenders, the Agent, the Lender Hedge Providers and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct
or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents. All conditions to the performance of the obligations of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement,
including the obligation to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Agent
and the Lenders and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms
or be entitled to assume that the Agent and the Lenders will refuse to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit in the absence of
strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of
such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by the Agent and the Lenders at any time if in their
sole discretion they deem it desirable to do so. In particular, the Agent and the Lenders make no representations and assume no
obligations as to third parties concerning the quality of the construction by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries
of any development or the absence therefrom of defects.


 


§33.         PATRIOT
ACT.


 


Each Lender and the
Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and the Guarantors that, pursuant to the requirements
of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the Guarantors, which
information includes names and addresses and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify
the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with the Patriot Act.


 


§34.         INVESTOR
GUARANTIES.


 


As an accommodation
to Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders have agreed to accept from time to time, upon the request of Borrower, guaranties from certain
Persons who are shareholders, members, partners or affiliates of Borrower or REIT (such Persons are hereinafter referred to as
the “Investor Guarantors”, and such guaranties are hereinafter referred to individually as the “Investor Guaranty”
and collectively as the “Investor Guaranties”); provided that the aggregate principal amount of the Obligations guaranteed
by the Investor Guarantors shall not exceed $150,000,000.00. The form of each Investor Guaranty shall be subject to the prior approval
of Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. No Investor Guarantor shall be a Person with
whom Agent or any Lender is prohibited by applicable law from doing business with, including without limitation, by virtue of OFAC.
Borrower shall deliver to Agent such information as Agent may reasonably request to verify the foregoing. Without limiting the
foregoing, no event or circumstance which shall occur with respect to any of such Investor Guarantors, nor any act or omission
by Agent or any of the Lenders with respect to any of the Investor Guarantors or the Investor Guaranties, shall in any event limit,
impair or otherwise affect the liability of the Borrower or Guarantors to the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and Guarantors hereby waive and agree not to assert or take advantage of any defense based
thereon. Agent may at any time in its sole discretion, but only with the consent of the Investor Guarantor or in accordance with
the terms of the Investor Guaranty (provided that consent of the Investor Guarantor shall not be required as a condition to Agent
and the Lenders accepting any payments or prepayments of the Obligations, or otherwise dealing with the Loan or the Loan Documents),
release any Investor Guarantor from its Investor Guaranty without affecting the liability of Borrower or Guarantors under the Loan
Documents.


 




    	134



    	 



    

 


§35.         NON-RECOURSE
TO REIT.


 


Except to the extent
set forth in the Springing Guaranty and subject to the limitations described below, the Obligations of the Borrower under this
Agreement are non-recourse to the REIT, and payable only out of cash flow and assets of the Borrower and the other Guarantors.
Agent, the Lenders and the Lender Hedge Providers agree that the REIT, nor its assets shall be liable for any of the Obligations
of the Borrower under this Agreement as a result of its status as a general partner of the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(a) if an Event of Default occurs, nothing in this §35 shall in any way prevent or hinder the Agent or the Lenders in the
pursuit or enforcement of any right, remedy, or judgment against the Borrower or any of the other Guarantors, or any of their respective
assets; (b) the REIT shall be fully liable to the Agent and the Lenders to the same extent that REIT would be liable absent the
foregoing provision of this §35 for fraud or willful misrepresentation by the Borrower, REIT, or any of their respective Affiliates
or Subsidiaries (to the full extent of losses suffered by the Agent or any Lender by reason of such fraud or willful misrepresentation);
and (c) nothing in this §35 shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Agent may have under §506(a), 506(b), 1111(b)
or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any successor thereto or similar provisions under applicable state law to file
a claim against the Borrower or any of the other Guarantors for the full amount of the Obligations.

FOR VALUE RECEIVED,
the undersigned (“Maker”), hereby promises to pay to ________________ __________________ (“Payee”), or
order, in accordance with the terms of that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 17, 2014,
as from time to time in effect, among the Borrower, KeyBank National Association, for itself and as Agent, and such other Lenders
as may be from time to time named therein (the “Credit Agreement”), to the extent not sooner paid, on or before the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the principal sum of _________________ ($__________), or such amount as may be advanced by the
Payee under the Credit Agreement as a Revolving Credit Loan with daily interest from the date thereof, computed as provided in
the Credit Agreement, on the principal amount hereof from time to time unpaid, at a rate per annum on each portion of the principal
amount which shall at all times be equal to the rate of interest applicable to such portion in accordance with the Credit Agreement,
and with interest on overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, on overdue installments of interest and
late charges at the rates provided in the Credit Agreement. Interest shall be payable on the dates specified in the Credit Agreement,
except that all accrued interest shall be paid at the stated or accelerated maturity hereof or upon the prepayment in full hereof.
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.


 


Payments hereunder
shall be made to the Agent for the Payee at 127 Public Square, Cleveland, Ohio 44114-1306, or at such other address as Agent may
designate from time to time.

in this Note to the contrary, all agreements between the undersigned Maker and the Lenders and the Agent, whether now existing

of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Lenders exceed
the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable
to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount
permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by
applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction
of the principal balance of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest
exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker, such excess shall be refunded to the undersigned
Maker. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated,
allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker
(including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the
maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This paragraph shall control all agreements between the undersigned Maker and the Lenders
and the Agent.

subject to the terms and conditions hereof, hereby assumes all obligations of Assignor with respect to the Assigned Interests from

the collectability of the Loans, the continued solvency of the Borrower or the Guarantors or the continued existence, sufficiency
or value of any assets of the Borrowers or the Guarantors which may be realized upon for the repayment of the Loans, or the performance
or observance by the Borrowers or the Guarantors of any of their respective obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is
a party or any other instrument or document delivered or executed pursuant thereto or in connection with the Loan; other than that

and without reliance upon Assignor, any other Lender or the Agent and based upon such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in evaluating the Loans, the Loan Documents, the creditworthiness
of the Borrower and the Guarantors and the value of the assets of the Borrower and the Guarantors, and taking or not taking action
under the Loan Documents and any intercreditor agreement among the Lenders and the Agent (the “Intercreditor Agreement”);
(d) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement; (e) agrees that, by this Assignment,
Assignee has become a party to and will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of the Loan
Documents and the Intercreditor Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender; (f) represents and warrants that
Assignee does not control, is not controlled by, is not under common control with and is otherwise free from influence or control
by, the Borrower or the Guarantors and is not a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, (g) agrees that
if Assignee is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or any State, it has on or prior to the date hereof
delivered to the Borrower and Agent certification as to its exemption (or lack thereof) from deduction or withholding of any United
