---

On March 27, 2026, News Corporation (the "Company") entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") among the Company, as administrative borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Citibank, N.A., as syndication agents, and the other parties thereto.

The Credit Agreement provides for unsecured $1,500,000,000 credit facilities comprised of a $1,000,000,000 five year unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") and $500,000,000 five year unsecured term loan A credit facility (the "Term A Facility," the loans under the Term A Facility are collectively referred to as "Term A Loans," and the Term A Facility together with the Revolving Facility are referred to as, the "Facilities") to the Company to refinance its existing credit agreement and for general corporate purposes. The Revolving Facility has a sublimit of $100,000,000 available for issuances of letters of credit. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may request increases with respect to either Facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250,000,000. Subject to certain conditions stated in the Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow amounts under the Revolving Facility during the term of the Credit Agreement. The loans under the Revolving Facility will not amortize. The Term A Loans will amortize in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 0.0%, 2.5%, 2.5%, 5.0% and 5.0%, respectively, of the original principal amount of the Term A Facility for each 12-month period commencing on June 30, 2026. All amounts under the Credit Agreement with respect to the Facilities are due on March 27, 2031, unless, with respect to the Revolving Facility, the commitments are terminated earlier either at the request of the Company or, with respect to the Facilities, if an event of default occurs, by the administrative agent at the request or with the consent of the lenders (or automatically in the case of certain bankruptcy-related events). The Company may request that the maturity date of the revolving credit commitments under the Revolving Facility be extended under certain circumstances as set forth in the Credit Agreement for up to two additional one-year periods. The Company may also request that the maturity date of the Term A Facility be extended under certain circumstances as set forth in the Credit Agreement by at least one year. Additionally, interest on borrowings is based on either (a) an Alternative Currency Term Rate formula, (b) a Term SOFR formula, (c) an Alternative Currency Daily Rate or (d) the Base Rate formula, each as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default with customary exceptions, including limitations on the ability of the Company and the Company's subsidiaries to incur liens, merge into or consolidate with any other entity, incur subsidiary debt or dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or all or substantially all of the stock of all subsidiaries taken as a whole. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain an adjusted operating income net leverage ratio of not more than 3.5 to 1.0, subject to certain adjustments following a material acquisition. If any of the events of default occur and are not cured within applicable grace periods or waived, any unpaid amounts under the Credit Agreement may be declared immediately due and payable.

The maturity of the existing Term A Loans was extended on March 27, 2026, and additional Term A Loans in the amount of $43,750,000 were borrowed by the Company on the same date (the "Borrowing"). The aggregate amount of Term A Loans after giving effect to the Borrowing is $500,000,000.

If the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Administrative Borrower and (i) the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Banks may, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), amend the definition of "Alternative Currency Daily Rate" or "Alternative Currency Term Rate," as applicable, to the extent necessary to add the applicable rate for such currency and any applicable adjustment for such rate and (ii) to the extent the definition of "Alternative Currency Daily Rate" or "Alternative Currency Term Rate," as applicable, has been amended to reflect the appropriate rate for such currency, such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency, for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this <u>Section 1.10</u>, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Administrative Borrower.

SECTION 1.11. <u>Change of Currency</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each obligation of a Borrower to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the Closing Date shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption. If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the relevant rate market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; <u>provided</u> that, if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

Each Lender shall, before 1:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the date of such Borrowing make available for the account of its applicable lending office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, in Same Day Funds, such Lender's ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Article III</u>, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent's address referred to in <u>Section 8.02</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Anything in <u>subsection (a)</u> above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Administrative Borrower may not select Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances for any Borrowing if the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Borrowing is less than the Borrowing Minimum or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to <u>Section 2.08</u> or <u>2.12</u> and (ii) the Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 15 separate Borrowings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the applicable Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances, Term SOFR Advances or Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advances, the applicable Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Article III</u>, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Subject to <u>Section 2.08</u>, (i) each Borrowing denominated in Euros, Australian Dollars or Canadian Dollars shall be comprised entirely of Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances, (ii) each Borrowing denominated in Sterling shall be comprised entirely of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advances and (iii) each Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances as the Administrative Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Advance by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; <u>provided</u> that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) After giving effect to all Borrowings and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to all Loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term SOFR Advances or Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances upon determination of such interest rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) With respect to SONIA, EURIBOR, BBSY, CORRA, SOFR or Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make the Conforming Changes from time to time (in consultation with the Administrative Borrower) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

SECTION 2.03. <u>Letters of Credit</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>General</u>. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans provided for in <u>Section 2.01</u>, any Borrower may request any Issuing Bank, in reliance on the agreements of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this <u>Section 2.03</u>, to issue, at any time and from time to time following the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency for its own account or the account of any of its Subsidiaries in such form as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank in its reasonable determination. Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Credit Commitments; <u>provided</u>, that, any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be issued by Bank of America in its capacity as an Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Extension, Reinstatement or Renewal</u>. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment of the terms and conditions, extension of the terms and conditions, extension of the expiration date, or reinstatement of amounts paid, or renewal of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Administrative Borrower shall deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank selected by it and to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, extended or renewed, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, extension or renewal (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with <u>Section 2.03(d)</u>), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, extend, reinstate or renew such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement on such Issuing Bank's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement or other agreement submitted by the applicable Borrower to, or entered into by such Borrower with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

If the applicable Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application (or the amendment of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an "<u>Auto-Extension Letter of Credit</u>"); <u>provided</u> that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit may permit such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the "<u>Non-Extension Notice Date</u>") in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon by such Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, such Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiration date not later than the date permitted pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(d)</u>; <u>provided</u>, that such Issuing Bank shall not (i) permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (except that the expiration date may be extended to a date that is no more than one year from the then-current expiration date) or (B) it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (ii) be obligated to permit such extension if it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Section 3.02</u> is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Limitations on Amounts, Issuance and Amendment</u>. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, extended, reinstated or renewed only if (and upon issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal (i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment, (ii) the aggregate L/C Obligations shall not exceed the amount of the Letter of Credit Facility, (iii) the Revolving Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment and (iv) the total Revolving Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, the Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $500,000;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank (in its sole discretion) with the applicable Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Bank's actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to <u>Section 2.20(c)</u>) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such Issuing Bank has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) the Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Expiration Date</u>. Each Letter of Credit shall have a stated expiration date no later than the earlier of (i) the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension of the expiration date thereof, whether automatic or by amendment, twelve months after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) <u>Participations</u>. (i) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount or extending the expiration date thereof), and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender's Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(e)(i)</u> in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender's Applicable Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day specified in the notice provided by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(f)</u> until such L/C Disbursement is reimbursed by the applicable Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason, including after the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in <u>Section 2.02</u> with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender (and <u>Section 2.02</u> shall apply, <u>mutatis mutandis</u>, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the applicable Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 2.03(f)</u>, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(e)</u> to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(e)</u> to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement shall not constitute a Revolving Credit Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender's Applicable Percentage at any time such Applicable Percentage shall change as a result of any change in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender pursuant to this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Reimbursement</u>. If an Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in respect of such L/C Disbursement in the currency in which such L/C Disbursement was made (or, if requested by such Issuing Bank, in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such L/C Disbursement) by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon on (i) the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower receives notice of such L/C Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m. or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, <u>provided</u> that, if such L/C Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, such Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with <u>Section 2.02</u> that such payment be financed with a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such L/C Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of Base Rate Advances. If the applicable Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the Dollar Equivalent of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof (the "<u>Unreimbursed Amount</u>") and such Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolving Credit Loans to be disbursed on the date of payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in <u>Section 2.02</u> for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in <u>Section 3.02</u> (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing). Any notice given by any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 2.03(f)</u> may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; <u>provided</u> that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) <u>Obligations Absolute</u>. The applicable Borrower's obligation to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in <u>Section 2.03(f)</u> shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision herein or therein;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement in such draft or other document being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) waiver by any Issuing Bank of any requirement that exists for such Issuing Bank's protection and not the protection of any Borrower or any waiver by such Issuing Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice any Borrower;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit required that demand be in the form of a draft;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any payment made by any Issuing Bank in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC or the ISP, as applicable;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit (but materially complies); or any payment made by any Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this <u>Section 2.03</u>, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower's obligations hereunder; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the relevant Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally.

The applicable Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower's instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The applicable Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank, or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the applicable Issuing Bank or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; <u>provided</u> that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination, and that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) an Issuing Bank may replace a purportedly lost, stolen, or destroyed original Letter of Credit or missing amendment thereto with a certified true copy marked as such or waive a requirement for its presentation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) an Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and without regard to any non-documentary condition in such Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) an Issuing Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by an Issuing Bank when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, any Issuing Bank, or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of (A) any presentation that includes forged or fraudulent documents or that is otherwise affected by the fraudulent, bad faith, or illegal conduct of the beneficiary or other Person, (B) an Issuing Bank declining to take-up documents and make payment (1) against documents that are fraudulent, forged, or for other reasons by which it is entitled not to honor or (2) following a Borrower's waiver of discrepancies with respect to such documents or request for honor of such documents or (C) an Issuing Bank retaining proceeds of a Letter of Credit based on an apparently applicable attachment order, blocking regulation, or third-party claim notified to such Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) <u>Applicability of ISP; Limitation of Liability</u>. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued by it, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Bank shall be responsible to any Borrower for, and no Issuing Bank's rights and remedies against a Borrower shall be impaired by, any action or inaction of any Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where any Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association ("<u>BAFT-IFSA</u>"), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Each Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in <u>Article VII</u> with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by an Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term "Administrative Agent" as used in <u>Article VII</u> included such Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) <u>Disbursement Procedures</u>. The Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall, within the time allowed by applicable laws or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower in writing of such demand for payment if such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; <u>provided</u> that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) <u>Interim Interest</u>. If the Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Advances; <u>provided</u> that if such Borrower fails to reimburse such L/C Disbursement when due pursuant to <u>clause (f)</u> of this <u>Section 2.03</u>, then <u>Section 2.07(b)</u> shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this <u>clause (k)</u> shall be for account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to <u>clause (d)</u> of this <u>Section 2.03</u> to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>Replacement of any Issuing Bank</u>. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement between the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the applicable Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to <u>Section 2.04(b)</u>. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term "Issuing Bank" shall be deemed to include such successor or any previous Issuing Bank, or such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) <u>Cash Collateralization</u>. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Administrative Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with L/C Obligations representing a majority of the total L/C Obligations) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this <u>clause (m)</u>, the applicable Borrower shall immediately deposit into an account established and maintained on the books and records of the Administrative Agent (the "<u>Collateral Account</u>") an amount in cash equal to 103% of the total L/C Obligations as of such date <u>plus</u> any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, <u>provided</u> that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to such Borrower described in <u>clause (f)</u> of <u>Section 6.01</u>. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the applicable Borrower under this Agreement. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing or <u>clause (d)</u> of this <u>Section 2.03</u>, if any L/C Obligations remain outstanding after the expiration date specified in said <u>clause (d)</u>, the applicable Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Collateral Account an amount in cash equal to 103% of such L/C Obligations as of such date <u>plus</u> any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made in cash or Cash Equivalents at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the applicable Borrower's risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Collateral Account. Moneys in the Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs, and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the applicable Borrower for the L/C Obligations at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with L/C Obligations representing a majority of the total L/C Obligations), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If the applicable Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) <u>Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent</u>. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this <u>Section 2.03</u>, provide the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Report, as set forth below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews, increases or extends a Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal, increase or extension and the stated amount of the applicable Letters of Credit after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes a payment pursuant to a Letter of Credit, the date and amount of such payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse a payment made pursuant to a Letter of Credit required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) for so long as any Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank is outstanding, such Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) on the first Business Day of each calendar month (commencing April 1, 2026), (B) at all other times a Letter of Credit Report is required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, and (C) on each date that (1) an L/C Credit Extension occurs or (2) there is any expiration, cancellation and/or disbursement, in each case, with respect to any such Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit Report appropriately completed with the information for every outstanding Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) <u>Additional Issuing Banks</u>. Any Lender hereunder may become an Issuing Bank upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a fully executed Notice of Additional Issuing Bank which shall be signed by the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank. Such new Issuing Bank shall provide its Letter of Credit Commitment in such Notice of Additional Issuing Bank and upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Notice of Additional Issuing Bank, the defined term Letter of Credit Commitment shall be deemed amended to incorporate the Letter of Credit Commitment of such new Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) <u>Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries</u>. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Administrative Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of a Borrower. Each Borrower irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that such Borrower's business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) <u>Conflict with Issuer Documents</u>. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

SECTION 2.04. <u>Fees</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Commitment Fee</u>. The Administrative Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee in Dollars at the per annum rate set forth in the definition of "Applicable Margin" on the actual daily amount of such Revolving Credit Lender's Unused Commitment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Administrative Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank hereunder at a rate per annum equal to 0.125% (or such other lower rate as may be agreed in writing by such Issuing Bank from time to time) of the Available Amount of each such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated, commencing June 30, 2026.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Administrative Agent's Fees</u>. The Administrative Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as have been agreed between the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the funding of the Term A Loans on the Closing Date, the Term A Commitments shall terminate and be reduced to $0.

SECTION 2.06. <u>Repayment of Advances</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Term A Loans</u>. The Administrative Borrower shall repay to the Term A Lenders the aggregate principal amount of all Term A Loans outstanding on the following dates in the respective amounts set forth opposite such dates (which amounts shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in <u>Section 2.10</u>), unless accelerated sooner pursuant to <u>Section 6.01</u>;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or any other agreement or instrument, in each case, relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the "<u>L/C Related Documents</u>");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Administrative Borrower in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Administrative Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Administrative Borrower in respect of the L/C Related Documents; or

No Issuing Bank shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Bank; <u>provided</u> that the foregoing, shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Administrative Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Administrative Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Administrative Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank's failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing, and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, each Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advances</u>. During such periods as such Advance is an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Alternative Currency Daily Rate in effect from time to time <u>plus</u> (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the date such Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advance shall be paid in full.

SECTION 2.08. <u>Interest Rate Determination</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Administrative Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of "Interest Period" in <u>Section 1.01</u>, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances with an Interest Period of one month.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (x) in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars, (i) each Term SOFR Advance will, at the option of the Required Lenders, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances (if applicable) shall be suspended and (y) no outstanding Advances denominated in any other Alternative Currency may be continued for an Interest Period of more than one month's duration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Inability to Determine Rates</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) If prior to (x) the commencement of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, (y) any relevant date of determination of the interest rate with respect to any Revolving Credit Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency or (z) a conversion of Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans or a continuation of any of such Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency has been determined in accordance with <u>Section 2.08(c)(ii)</u> and the circumstances under <u>Section 2.08(c)(ii)(x)</u> or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable), or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency for any determination date(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan, a Revolving Credit Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or the determination of the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (ii) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines, or is advised by the Required Lenders, that for any reason that the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency for any requested Interest Period or determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Administrative Borrower and each Lender.

Thereafter, (I) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Advances or Revolving Credit Loans denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, or to convert Base Rate Advances to Term SOFR Advances, as the case may be, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Advances or Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, or Interest Periods), and (II) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Term SOFR component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in <u>clause (i)</u> of this <u>Section 2.08(c)(i)</u>, until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.

Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Administrative Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Credit Loans denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, as the case may be (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as the case may be, or Interest Periods), or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request with respect to any Loan denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B)(i) any outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to Base Loans immediately and (ii) any outstanding affected Revolving Credit Loan denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, at the Administrative Borrower's option, will either (1) be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency immediately or (2) be prepaid in full immediately; <u>provided</u>, that if no election is made by the Administrative Borrower (x) in the case of a Revolving Credit Loan denominated in the relevant Alternative Currency, by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Borrower of such notice or (y) in the case of a Term SOFR Loan, by the last day of the current Interest Period for such applicable Term SOFR Loan, the Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have elected <u>clause (1)</u> above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Replacement of Relevant Rate or Successor Rate</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Administrative Borrower or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Administrative Borrower) that the Administrative Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency because either (x) one month, three month and six month interest periods of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is not or (y) the Relevant Rate is not, in either case, available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) the Applicable Authority (or any successor administrator thereof), in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate of an Agreed Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) or the Relevant Rate shall or will no longer be made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Agreed Currency, or shall or will otherwise cease; <u>provided</u> that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that will continue to provide such interest period(s) of the Relevant Rate or the Relevant Rate itself, in either case, for such Agreed Currency after such specific date (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate or such Relevant Rate itself, in either case, for such Agreed Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer available permanently or indefinitely, the "<u>Scheduled Unavailability Date</u>");

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in <u>Section 2.08(c)(ii)(x)</u> or <u>(y)</u> have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate for the relevant Agreed Currency then in effect, then, (I) with respect to Term SOFR, on a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent (any such date, the "<u>Term SOFR Replacement Date</u>"), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with respect to <u>clause (y)</u> above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the "<u>Term SOFR Successor Rate</u>") and (II) with respect to any other Relevant Rate (or if Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date), reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the Relevant Rate for an Agreed Currency or any then current Successor Rate for an Agreed Currency in accordance with this <u>Section 2.08</u> with an alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Agreed Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the U.S. and denominated in such Agreed Currency for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (and any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, a "<u>Other Relevant Rate Successor Rate</u>" and together with the Term SOFR Successor Rate, a "<u>Successor Rate</u>"), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all relevant Lenders and the Administrative Borrower unless, in the case of any amendments in connection with an Other Relevant Rate Successor Rate, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

If the relevant Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Administrative Borrower and each relevant Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate.

Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; <u>provided</u> that, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time (in consultation with the Administrative Borrower) and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

For purposes of this <u>Section 2.08(c)</u>, those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, the relevant Advances in Dollars or the relevant Alternative Currency, as applicable, shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders.

SECTION 2.09. <u>Optional Conversion of Advances</u>. The Administrative Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of <u>Sections 2.08</u> and <u>2.12</u>, Convert all Advances of one Type (other than Alternative Currency Daily Rate) comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type (other than Alternative Currency Daily Rate) denominated in the same currency; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that any Conversion of Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only with respect to Advances denominated in Dollars, and on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term SOFR Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Term SOFR Advances, as applicable, shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in <u>Section 2.02(b)</u> and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under <u>Section 2.02(b)</u>. Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Term SOFR Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Administrative Borrower.

SECTION 2.10. <u>Prepayments of Advances</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) <u>Optional</u>. The Administrative Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Loan Prepayment, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Advances in whole or in part without premium or penalty; <u>provided</u> that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (A) not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term SOFR Advances, (B) not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Advances, (C) not later than 9:00 a.m. (London time) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances and (D) not later than five Business Days 11:00 a.m. on the date of prepayment of Alternative Currency Daily Rate Advances; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of the Advances to be prepaid and, if Term SOFR Advances or Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Advances. If such notice is given by the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of any Term SOFR Advances and Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to <u>Section 8.04(d)</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Mandatory Prepayments</u>. (i) If at any time, the sum of (A) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans <u>plus</u> (B) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate L/C Obligations then outstanding exceeds 103% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders for three consecutive Business Days, the Administrative Borrower shall, within two Business Days after receipt of notice of the foregoing, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans owing by the Administrative Borrower and/or deposit cash in the Collateral Account with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum after such payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this <u>Section 2.10(b)</u> shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Advance or a Term SOFR Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which the Administrative Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to <u>Section 8.04(d)</u>. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this <u>Section 2.10(b)</u> to the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Letters of Credit</u>. The Administrative Borrower shall, on the day that is five (5) Business Days prior to the final Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date, pay to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account (a) an amount in each Alternative Currency sufficient to cause the amount of such Alternative Currency on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account to equal 100% of the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding denominated in such Alternative Currency and (b) an amount in Dollars sufficient to cause the amount of Dollars on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account to equal 100% of the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding denominated in Dollars; <u>provided</u> that nothing herein shall be deemed to amend or modify any provision of <u>Section 2.01(b)</u>. Upon the drawing of any such Letter of Credit, to the extent funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks to the extent permitted by applicable law, and if so applied, then such reimbursement shall be deemed a repayment of the corresponding Advance in respect of such Letter of Credit. After any such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all other obligations of the Administrative Borrower thereunder shall have been paid in full, the equivalent amount deposited in such L/C Cash Collateral Account in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be promptly returned to the Administrative Borrower.

SECTION 2.11. <u>Increased Costs</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule, regulation or treaty or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances or agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit (excluding for purposes of this <u>Section 2.11</u> any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes, in each case, indemnified or indemnifiable or with respect to which an additional amount has been paid or is payable under <u>Section 2.14</u> and (y) any Excluded Taxes), then the applicable Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (1) before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender (or its holding company) and (2) such Lender shall, in making demand under this Section, certify that such Lender is treating substantially all similarly situated borrowers under comparable provisions of similar credit agreements in a manner that is consistent with the treatment afforded the Borrowers hereunder; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this <u>Section 2.11(a)</u> shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy issued in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States financial regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Advances made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the applicable Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that before making any such demand, each Lender shall, in making demand under this Section, certify that such Lender is treating substantially all similarly situated borrowers under comparable provisions of similar credit agreements in a manner that is consistent with the treatment afforded the Borrowers hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in <u>paragraph (a)</u> or <u>(b)</u> of this Section shall be delivered to the Administrative Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor; <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.12. <u>Illegality</u>. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law, rule, regulation or treaty makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances or to fund or maintain Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances hereunder, (i) the obligation of the Lenders to make Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances or to Convert Base Rate Advances into Term SOFR Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, (ii) in the case of an Advance denominated in any Alternative Currency, such Advance shall be immediately converted to a Base Rate Advance denominated in Dollars at the Dollar Equivalent and (iii) in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars, (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Advances or to convert Base Rate Advances to Term SOFR Advances shall be suspended, and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different applicable lending office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its applicable lending office to continue to perform its obligations to make Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Any Lender that is prohibited from performing its obligations to make Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances may be required to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder upon a request by the Administrative Borrower in accordance with <u>Section 2.21</u>.

SECTION 2.13. <u>Payments and Computations; Administrative Agent's Clawback</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, free and clear of and irrespective of any right of counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the day when due (or in the case of Australian Dollars, 9:00 a.m. Local Time) to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account in same day funds. All payments under each Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Advance (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Advance) shall be made in the currency of such Advance, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth in any Loan Document, all other payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest, fees or commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to <u>Section 2.11</u>, <u>2.14</u> or <u>8.04(d)</u>) to the Lenders for the account of their respective lending offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its applicable lending office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment Increase pursuant to <u>Section 2.18</u> or an extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date pursuant to <u>Section 2.19</u>, and upon the Administrative Agent's receipt of such Lender's Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the applicable Increase Date or Extension Date, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to <u>Section 8.07(c)</u>, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Advances, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with <u>Section 2.02</u> (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by <u>Section 2.02</u>) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, <u>plus</u> any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing. If a Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrowers shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrowers may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due.

With respect to any payment that the Administrative Agent makes for the account of the Lenders or any Issuing Bank hereunder as to which the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that any of the following applies (such payment referred to as the "<u>Rescindable Amount</u>"): (1) the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment; (2) the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount so paid by the applicable Borrower (whether or not then owed); or (3) the Administrative agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. This paragraph shall solely be an agreement between the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Administrative Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this <u>clause (b)</u> shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) All interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, except that (i) (A) interest and fees computed by reference to the Base Rate (including Base Rate determined by reference to Term SOFR) at times when the Base Rate is based on the Administrative Agent's prime rate and (B) interest and fees computed by reference to the BBSY and the Term CORRA Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) interest in respect of Borrowings in GBP shall be computed on the basis of 365 days, and in each case of the foregoing <u>clauses (i)</u> and <u>(ii)</u> shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Base Rate, Alternative Currency Term Rate, Term SOFR or Alternative Currency Daily Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Interest shall accrue on each Advance for the day on which the Advance is made, and shall not accrue on an Advance, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Advance or such portion is paid, <u>provided</u> that any Advance that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to subject to the provisions in this Agreement addressing payments generally, bear interest for one day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Alternative Currency Term Rate Advances or Term SOFR Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Administrative Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that a Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the applicable Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, (i) if such payment is denominated in Dollars, at the Federal Funds Rate and (ii) if such payment is denominated in an Alternative Currency, the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount, it being understood that nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Credit Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

SECTION 2.14. <u>Taxes</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any and all payments by any Borrower or any guarantor of a Borrower to or for the account of any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with <u>Section 2.13</u> or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, charges or withholdings (including backup withholding), assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties with respect thereto ("<u>Taxes</u>"), unless otherwise required by applicable law. "<u>Excluded Taxes</u>" means in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent (i) Taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes and branch profits Taxes, in each case, imposed (A) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized or has its principal office or Facility Office or applicable lending office or any political subdivision thereof or (B) that are Other Connection Taxes; (ii) in the case of a Lender, any United States federal withholding taxes imposed on interest payable to or for the account of such Lender pursuant to law in effect on the date on which such Lender became a Lender hereunder or changes its lending office (except to the extent such Taxes were not considered Excluded Taxes with respect to such Lender's immediate assignor or immediately before such Lender changed its lending office); (iii) Taxes attributable to the recipient's failure to comply with <u>Section 2.14(e)</u>; (iv) any withholding tax imposed under FATCA in respect of payments hereunder or under the Notes; (v) any UK Tax Deduction payable by a UK Borrower with respect to an amount payable by, or on behalf of a UK Borrower, if, on the date on which the payment falls due: (A) the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a UK Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a UK Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a UK Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or UK Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, or (B) the UK Borrower making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the UK Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under <u>clauses (iv)</u>, <u>(v)</u> and <u>(vii)</u> of <u>Section 2.14(e)</u>, (vi) any Australian Tax Deduction payable by an Australian Loan Party or any guarantor of an Australian Loan Party, if, on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender or Administrative Agent without an Australian Tax Deduction if the Lender to which the payment relates had been an Australian Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be an Australian Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Australian Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, and (vii) any Taxes to the extent an indemnity or an additional amount with respect to such Taxes is not payable pursuant to <u>paragraph (e)(viii)</u>, <u>(f)</u>, <u>(i)</u> or <u>(k)</u> of this <u>Section 2.14</u>. If any Borrower or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required by law (as determined in the good-faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note or any other documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) to the extent the Tax is not an Excluded Tax, such Borrower, guarantor of a Borrower or applicable withholding agent (as relevant) will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this <u>Section 2.14</u>) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made <u>provided</u> that any such amount or amounts shall not be duplicative of any amounts to the extent otherwise paid by such Borrower, guarantor of such Borrower or applicable withholding agent (as relevant) under any other provision of this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In addition, the applicable Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Notes or any other documents to be delivered hereunder other than any Taxes or other amounts imposed with respect to an assignment (hereinafter referred to as "<u>Other Taxes</u>").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Administrative Borrower shall indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for, and hold it harmless against, the full amount of Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this <u>Section 2.14</u>) imposed on or paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) as a result of payments hereunder and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) provides to the Administrative Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Within 30 days (or as soon as practicable) after the date of any payment of Taxes by any Borrower, the Administrative Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in <u>Section 8.02</u>, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) (i) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each initial Lender and on the date of the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8IMY or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax on payments pursuant to any Loan Document. Any Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption of the portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower, in addition to the Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E provided pursuant to the preceding sentence, a certificate, substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit D</u>, establishing the Lender's entitlement to the exemption. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States federal withholding tax rate on interest payments in excess of zero, the United States federal withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that, if at the date of the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a Lender assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under <u>subsection (a)</u> above in respect of United States federal withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States federal withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on such date. For purposes of this <u>subsection (e)</u>, the term "United States person" shall have the meaning specified in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to 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 Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this <u>clause (ii)</u>, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Each Lender that is a United States person, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each initial Lender and on the date of the Assumption Agreement or the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative Borrower, shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States federal backup withholding tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in <u>Section 2.14(e)(i)</u> or <u>(f)</u>, a Lender is not required to deliver any form, certification or document that it is not legally eligible to deliver. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Each Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and to the Administrative Agent as soon as practicable, whenever reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and duly executed documentation prescribed by applicable requirements of law and such other reasonably requested information as will permit the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, (x) to determine whether or not any payments made under any Loan Document are subject to UK Tax Deductions or Australian Tax Deductions or information reporting requirements, (y) to determine, if applicable, the required rate of UK Tax Deductions or Australian Tax Deductions, and (z) to establish such Lender's entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, UK Tax Deduction or Australian Tax Deductions, in respect of any payments to be made to such Lender by any Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise establish such Lender's status for withholding Tax purposes in an applicable jurisdiction. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or administrative practice as will enable the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) a Lender with respect to a Commitment extended to a UK Borrower and each Borrower which makes a payment to which that Lender is entitled shall cooperate in promptly completing or assisting with the completion of any procedural formalities necessary for that Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction and maintain that authorization where an authorization expires or otherwise ceases to have effect;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) each such Lender shall, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of any form or certificate, whenever a lapse in time or change in such Lender's circumstances renders such form or certificate (including any specific form or certificate required in this <u>Section 2.14(e)</u>) so delivered obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, promptly (i) update such form or certificate or (ii) notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) if in respect of a Commitment extended to a UK Borrower or Australian Loan Party (i) a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations with respect to such Commitment or changes its Facility Office in respect of such Commitment, and (ii) as a result of circumstances existing at the date of, or as a result of, the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a UK Borrower or Australian Loan Party would be obliged to make a payment to the successor or assignee or Lender acting through its new Facility Office in respect of a UK Tax Deduction or an Australian Tax Deduction, then such successor or assignee or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is entitled to receive payment under this <u>Section 2.14</u> only to the same extent as the assigning or transferring Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. This <u>paragraph (viii)</u> shall not apply to a UK Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and has provided its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence to the Administrative Agent where the Administrative Agent has provided the same to the Administrative Borrower or the relevant UK Borrower but the relevant UK Borrower has not duly completed and filed an HM Revenue & Customs' Form DTTP2 within ten Business Days of receiving the relevant scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ix) Each Lender which becomes a Lender and extends a Commitment to a UK Borrower under a Loan Document after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the documentation which it executes on becoming a party to this Agreement, which of the following categories it falls in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) not a UK Qualifying Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) a UK Qualifying Lender (other than a UK Treaty Lender); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) a UK Treaty Lender (on the assumption that all procedural formalities have been completed),

and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send a copy of such documentation to the relevant Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) For the avoidance of doubt, for any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Administrative Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document it is required to deliver under <u>Section 2.14(e)</u>, such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this <u>Section 2.14</u> with respect to Taxes imposed by reason of such failure; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Administrative Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u> agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Any Lender making a claim for compensation under this <u>Section 2.14</u> may be required to assign all of its rights and obligations hereunder upon a request by the Administrative Borrower in accordance with <u>Section 2.21</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) In the event a Lender is entitled, on the effective date of an Assumption Agreement or Assignment and Assumption, to the benefits of a payment pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u>, an assignee or novatee of such Lender shall only be entitled to the same benefits of payment (in addition to any future benefits of payment that may arise with respect to such assignee) that would have been available to such Lender had such Lender not entered into the related Assumption Agreement or Assignment and Assumption with such assignee or novatee and then only to the extent the relevant amounts are incurred by such assignee or novatee. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this <u>Section 2.14(i)</u> or the rest of this Agreement will be taken to require an Australian Loan Party to pay an additional amount on account of Australian Withholding Tax to any assignee or novatee of the Lender if that assignee or novatee is not an Australian Qualifying Lender, except where the assignee or novatee is not an Australian Qualifying Lender because of any change after the date of this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or Australian Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) If any Lender or Administrative Agent (for purposes of this <u>paragraph (j)</u>, an "<u>indemnified party</u>") determines, in its sole discretion (such discretion to be exercised in good faith), that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u> (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this <u>Section 2.14</u>), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund and net of any out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes)). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this <u>paragraph (j)</u> (<u>plus</u> any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this <u>paragraph (j)</u>, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this <u>paragraph (j)</u> the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Taxes subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it reasonably deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Notwithstanding any other provision in this <u>Section 2.14</u>, the payment of an additional amount under <u>Section 2.14(a)</u> or an indemnification payment under <u>Section 2.14(c)</u> by any Australian Loan Party shall not be required:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in respect of a Tax which would not be required to be deducted by an Australian Loan Party if, before the Australian Loan Party makes a relevant payment, the relevant Lender or Administrative Agent, provided the Australian Loan Party with any of its name, address, tax file number, Australian business number, registration number or similar details or any relevant tax exemption or similar details; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to any withholding or deduction on account of an Australian Loan Party receiving a direction under section 255 of the Australian Tax Act, section 260-5 of the Australian Tax Act or any similar law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) <u>VAT</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Loan Document by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to <u>clause (ii)</u> below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Loan Party under a Loan Document and the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Loan Party must pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and the Administrative Agent or such Lender must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Loan Party).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (the "<u>Supplier</u>") to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender (the "<u>Supply Recipient</u>") under a Loan Document, and any party other than the Supply Recipient (the "<u>Relevant Party</u>") is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Supply Recipient in respect of that consideration):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Supply Recipient must (where this <u>paragraph (A)</u> applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Supply Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Supply Recipient reasonably determines (in good faith) relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) (where the Supply Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Supply Recipient, pay to the Supply Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Supply Recipient reasonably determines (in good faith) that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Where a Loan Document requires any Loan Party to reimburse or indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any cost or expense, that Loan Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) the Administrative Agent or such Lender for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably determines (in good faith) that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Any reference in <u>clause (i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u>, <u>(iii)</u> or <u>(v)</u> of this <u>Section 2.14(l)</u> to any Loan Party shall, at any time when such Loan Party is treated as member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a Loan Party shall be construed as a reference to that Loan Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Loan Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) In relation to any supply made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Loan Party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, that Loan Party must promptly provide the Administrative Agent or such Lender with details of that Loan Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with the Administrative Agent's or such Lender's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Each party's obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of any Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 2.15. <u>Sharing of Payments, Etc</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other Obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such Obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (x) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; <u>provided</u> that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Administrative Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other Obligations (including any unreimbursed L/C Disbursements), such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due to such parties.

SECTION 2.16. <u>Evidence of Debt</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the applicable Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances. Each Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Administrative Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the applicable Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>Section 8.07(c)</u> shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type and currency of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption Agreement and each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower hereunder and each Lender's share thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to <u>subsection (b)</u> above, and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to <u>subsection (a)</u> above, shall be <u>prima facie</u> evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the applicable Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.17. <u>Use of Proceeds</u>. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for refinancing of the Existing Credit Agreement and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries including, without limitation, to finance working capital needs, permitted acquisitions and other permitted Investments, payments of dividends and repurchases, redemptions and other buybacks of equity interests.

SECTION 2.18. <u>Increase in Commitments</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrative Borrower may, at any time prior to the final Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date or the Term A Loan Maturity Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment or the Term A Commitment be increased by an amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof (each, a "<u>Commitment Increase</u>") to be effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the scheduled final Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date then in effect or the Term A Loan Maturity Date (the "<u>Increase Date</u>") as specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of increases of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Term A Commitment, respectively, at any time exceed $250,000,000, (ii) on the date of any request by the Administrative Borrower for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Article III</u> shall be satisfied and (iii) the terms, pricing, maturity and (in the case of Commitment Increases in the form of Term A Commitments) amortization of any Commitment Increase shall be (as determined by Administrative Borrower in good faith) substantially identical to the terms of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Term A Loans, as applicable, as existing on the related Increase Date. The Administrative Borrower may simultaneously (x) request one or more of the Lenders to increase the amount of its Commitment and/or (y) arrange for one or more banks or financial institutions not a party hereto to become parties to and Lenders under this Agreement, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such of the Lenders and one or more Eligible Assignees as are identified by the Administrative Borrower to participate in the requested Commitment Increase of a request by the Administrative Borrower for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase, (ii) the proposed terms of such Commitment Increase and (iii) the date by which such Lenders or Eligible Assignees (each such Eligible Assignee and each Eligible Assignee that agrees to an extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in accordance with <u>Section 2.19(c)</u> or an extension of the Term A Loan Maturity Date in accordance with <u>Section 2.19(g)</u>, an "<u>Assuming Lender</u>") wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to increase the amount of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments or Term A Commitments or to establish their respective Revolving Credit Commitments or Term A Commitments, as the case may be (the "<u>Commitment Date</u>"); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or more. Each Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Commitment Increase (each, an "<u>Increasing Lender</u>") shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A Commitment. Each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments or Term A Commitment of the Increasing Lenders and the Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A Commitment of each Assuming Lender shall be subject to the approval of each Issuing Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The requested Commitment Increase shall be allocated among the Lenders willing to participate therein and the Assuming Lenders in such amounts as are agreed between the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) On each Increase Date, each Assuming Lender shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the Revolving Credit Commitment or Term A Commitment of each Increasing Lender for such requested Commitment Increase shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of <u>Section 2.18(b)</u>) as of such Increase Date; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (A) certified copies of resolutions of the board of directors of the Administrative Borrower or the executive committee of such board of directors approving the Commitment Increase and the corresponding modifications to this Agreement, (B) if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel for the Administrative Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), and (C) a consent of the Administrative Borrower;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each, an "<u>Assumption Agreement</u>"), duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in <u>Section 2.18(a)</u> and in the immediately preceding sentence of this <u>Section 2.18(c)</u>, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Administrative Borrower of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date. If any Advances are outstanding on the Increase Date, the Lenders immediately after effectiveness of such Commitment Increase shall purchase and assign at par such amounts of the Advances outstanding at such time as the Administrative Agent may require such that each Lender holds its Pro Rata Share of all Advances outstanding after giving effect to all such assignments. On and after each Increase Date, the Pro Rata Share of each Lender's participation in Letters of Credit and Advances from draws under Letters of Credit shall be calculated after giving effect to each such Commitment Increase.

SECTION 2.19. <u>Extension of Term A Loan Maturity Date and Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At least 45 days, but not more than 90 days, prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, the Administrative Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect at such time by one year from its then scheduled expiration; <u>provided</u> that the final Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date may not extend more than two years from the initial Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such request, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 20 days prior to such anniversary date, notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Revolving Credit Lender will consent to such extension. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date at least 20 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Revolving Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower not later than 15 days prior to the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Revolving Credit Lenders regarding the Administrative Borrower's request for an extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If all the Revolving Credit Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with <u>subsection (a)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>, the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable anniversary date (the "<u>Revolving Extension Date</u>"), be extended for one year; <u>provided</u> that on each Revolving Extension Date the applicable conditions set forth in <u>Article III</u> shall be satisfied. If less than all of the Revolving Credit Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with <u>subsection (a)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>, the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable Revolving Extension Date and subject to <u>subsection (d)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>, be extended as to those Revolving Credit Lenders that so consented (each, a "<u>Consenting Revolving Lender</u>") but shall not be extended as to any other Revolving Credit Lender, including any Revolving Credit Lender that has not affirmatively consented to such extension (each, a "<u>Non-Consenting Revolving Lender</u>"). To the extent that the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date is not extended as to any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this <u>Section 2.19</u> and the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender is not assumed in accordance with <u>subsection (c)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u> on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the Administrative Borrower, such Revolving Credit Lender or any other Person; <u>provided</u> that such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender's rights under <u>Sections 2.11</u>, <u>2.14</u> and <u>8.04</u>, and its obligations under <u>Section 8.16</u>, shall survive the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date for such Revolving Credit Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is understood and agreed that no Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Administrative Borrower for any requested extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If less than all of the Revolving Credit Lenders consent to any such request pursuant to <u>subsection (a)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Administrative Borrower. The Administrative Borrower may arrange for one or more Consenting Revolving Lenders or other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders to assume, pursuant to Assignments and Assumptions, effective as of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Revolving Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender (with such Revolving Credit Commitment to replace the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Non-Consenting Revolving Lender as designated by the Administrative Borrower); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (x) the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 unless the amount of the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender is less than $5,000,000, in which case such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount and (y) each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitment of the Consenting Revolving Lenders shall be approved by each Issuing Bank (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender <u>plus (B)</u> any accrued but unpaid commitment fees owing to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender as of the effective date of such assignment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) all additional costs, reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) with respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under <u>Section 8.07(b)</u> for such assignment shall have been paid;

<u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender's rights under <u>Sections 2.11</u>, <u>2.14</u> and <u>8.04</u>, and its obligations under <u>Section 8.16</u>, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Revolving Extension Date, (A) each such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Lender, if any, shall have delivered to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assumption Agreement, duly executed by such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Lender, such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender, the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (B) any such Consenting Revolving Lender shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment and at least three Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect immediately prior to such Extension Date, each Non-Consenting Revolving Lender being replaced pursuant to this <u>Section 2.19</u> shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in <u>clauses (i)</u>, <u>(ii)</u> and <u>(iii)</u> of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Consenting Revolving Lender or Assuming Lender, as of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Revolving Credit Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Revolving Credit Lenders, and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting Revolving Lender hereunder (other than its obligations under <u>Section 8.16</u> as to matters occurring prior to such date) shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If (after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to <u>subsection (c)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>) Lenders having Commitments equal to at least 50% of the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Administrative Borrower, and, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions in <u>Article III</u>, the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date then in effect for each such Revolving Credit Lender shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in <u>subsection (a)</u> of this <u>Section 2.19</u>, and all references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the "<u>Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date</u>" shall, with respect to each Consenting Revolving Lender and each Assuming Lender for such Extension Date and unless otherwise specified, refer to the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) of the extension of the scheduled Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Revolving Lender and each such Assuming Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) At least 45 days, but not more than 90 days, prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, the Administrative Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Term A Loan Maturity Date to a date (the "<u>Extended Term A Maturity Date</u>") that is at least one year after the Term A Loan Maturity Date (any such Term A Loans which have been so modified, "<u>Extended Term A Loans</u>"). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term A Lender of such request, and each Term A Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 20 days prior to such anniversary date, notify the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Term A Lender will agree to such extension (each Term A Lender that determines to so extend the Term A Loan Maturity Date, an "<u>Extending Term A Lender</u>"; each Term A Lender that determines not to so extend the Term A Loan Maturity Date, a "<u>Non-Extending Term A Lender</u>"). If any Term A Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower in writing of its agreement to any such request for extension of the Term A Loan Maturity Date at least 20 days prior to the applicable anniversary date, such Term A Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Term A Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Administrative Borrower not later than 15 days prior to the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Term A Lenders regarding the Administrative Borrower's request for an extension of the Term A Loan Maturity Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Term A Loan Maturity Date shall, effective as at the applicable anniversary date (the "<u>Term A Loan Extension Date</u>"), be extended to the Extended Term A Maturity Date as to the Extending Term A Lenders; <u>provided</u>, that the proposed terms of the Extended Term A Loans shall be identical to those applicable to the existing Term A Loans except (i) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended to the Extended Term A Maturity Date, (ii) (A) the yield with respect to the Extended Term A Loans may be higher or lower than the yield for the Term A Loans of such existing Term A Facility and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Extending Term A Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any increased yield contemplated by the preceding <u>subsection (A)</u>, (iii) any tranche of Extended Term A Loans may receive voluntary prepayments of Term A Loans in an amount greater than, equal to or less than its pro rata share of such voluntary prepayments made to all tranches of Term A Loans, (iv) the amortization schedule set forth in <u>Section 2.06(a)</u> shall be adjusted to reflect the scheduled final maturity date of the Extended Term A Loans and (v) the covenants set forth in <u>Section 5.02</u> may be modified in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Term A Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Administrative Borrower shall have the right, but shall not be obliged, to arrange for one or more Extending Term A Lenders or other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders to assume, pursuant to Assignments and Assumptions, effective as of the Term A Loan Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date, any Non-Extending Term A Lender's Term A Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Extending Term A Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Extending Term A Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Notwithstanding the above, at any time prior to the effectiveness of any extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date in effect or the Term A Loan Maturity Date, the Administrative Borrower may withdraw its request for extension of the Revolving Credit Commitment Termination Date or the Term A Loan Maturity Date.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling any Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE VII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 7.01. <u>Appointment and Authority</u>. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this <u>Article VII</u> are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term "agent" herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

SECTION 7.02. <u>Rights as a Lender</u>. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term "<u>Lender</u>" or "<u>Lenders</u>" shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Administrative Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 7.03. <u>Exculpatory Provisions</u>. The Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, as applicable, shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, as applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or a Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender or any Issuing Bank, any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates, that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent, Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner or any of their Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in <u>Section 8.01</u>) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Administrative Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in <u>Article III</u> or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.04. <u>Reliance by Administrative Agent</u>. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 7.05. <u>Delegation of Duties</u>. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this <u>Article VII</u> shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 7.06. <u>Resignation of Administrative Agent</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the "<u>Resignation Effective Date</u>"), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, <u>provided</u> that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to <u>clause (d)</u> of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Administrative Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Administrative Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the "<u>Removal Effective Date</u>"), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor's appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in <u>Section 2.14</u> and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this <u>Section 7.06</u>). The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this <u>Article VII</u> and <u>Section 8.04</u> shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

SECTION 7.07. <u>Non-Reliance on the Administrative Agent, Etc</u>. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Joint Bookrunner has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or Joint Bookrunner hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party of any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger or any Joint Bookrunner to any Lender or Issuing Bank as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent, each Joint Lead Arranger and each Joint Bookrunner have disclosed material information in their (or their Related Parties') possession. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Administrative Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender or Issuing Bank for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.

SECTION 7.08. <u>No Other Duties, Etc</u>. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Joint Bookrunners, Joint Lead Arrangers or Co-Syndication Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank hereunder.

SECTION 7.09. <u>Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim</u>.

The Administrative Borrower further agrees to pay within 30 days after its receipt of a written request therefor, which request shall provide in reasonable detail the basis for the claim therefor, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Lenders, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of rights under this <u>Section 8.04(a)</u>, and, if reasonably necessary, one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent or applicable Lenders (based upon the advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent or such Lenders), as the case may be, one additional counsel (and, if reasonably necessary, one regulatory counsel and one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the affected parties taken as a whole.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agents, the Issuing Banks and each Lender and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an "<u>Indemnified Party</u>") from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one primary counsel and, if reasonably necessary, one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for the Indemnified Parties taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, as reasonably determined by the affected Indemnified Party (based upon the advice of counsel to such Indemnified Party), one additional counsel for the affected parties taken as a whole) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or Letters of Credit or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of the Administrative Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent that such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (x) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party or any of its controlling or controlled Affiliates, directors, officers or employees, (y) a material breach by such Indemnified Party or any of its controlling or controlled Affiliates, directors, officers or employees of its obligations under the Loan Documents or (z) a claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding by one Indemnified Party against another Indemnified Party and not resulting from an act or omission of the Administrative Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their Affiliates (other than any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought against an Agent solely in its capacity as such or in fulfillment of its role as such). Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action or proceeding involving a claim referred to in this <u>subsection (b)</u> above, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against Administrative Borrower under this <u>subsection (b)</u>, promptly give notice to Administrative Borrower of the commencement of such action or proceeding; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the failure of such Indemnified Party to give notice provided in this <u>subsection (b)</u> shall not (i) relieve Administrative Borrower of its Obligations under this <u>subsection (b)</u>, unless and to the extent that such failure results in the forfeiture of rights or defenses and Administrative Borrower incurs an increased Obligation to such Indemnified Party under this <u>subsection (b)</u> on account of such failure, and (ii) in any event relieve Administrative Borrower from any liability with respect to such Indemnified Party which Administrative Borrower may have otherwise on account of this Agreement. The Administrative Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without the Administrative Borrower's consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Administrative Borrower shall not settle or compromise any action or claim affecting any Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party's prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) if the settlement or compromise involves any performance by, or adverse admission of, such Indemnified Party. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this <u>Section 8.04</u> applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Administrative Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Upon any payment of any indemnified amount by Administrative Borrower to any Indemnified Party, Administrative Borrower shall be subrogated to all rights of such Indemnified Party to seek reimbursement from any other Person in connection with such indemnified amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Alternative Currency Term Rate Advance or Term SOFR Advance is made by the Administrative Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to <u>Section 2.08(c)</u>, <u>2.10</u> or <u>2.12</u>, acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to <u>Section 6.01</u> or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to <u>Section 8.07</u> as a result of a demand by the Administrative Borrower pursuant to <u>Section 8.07(a)</u>, the Administrative Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Administrative Borrower hereunder, (i) the agreements and obligations of the Administrative Borrower contained in <u>Sections 2.11</u>, <u>2.14</u> and <u>8.04</u> shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes and (ii) all representations and warranties made under this Agreement and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Advance, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

SECTION 8.05. <u>Right of Setoff</u>. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by <u>Section 6.01</u> to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Notes due and payable pursuant to the provisions of <u>Section 6.01</u>, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and the Note held by such Lender, and to make any such currency exchange as may be necessary to effect such application, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Borrower after any such setoff and application, <u>provided</u> that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

SECTION 8.06. <u>Binding Effect</u>. This Agreement shall become effective (other than <u>Section 2.01</u>, which shall only become effective upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in <u>Section 3.01</u>) when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights or Obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party shall be null and void).

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither the Administrative Borrower nor any other Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender except as permitted pursuant to <u>Section 5.02(b)</u> and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 8.07(b)</u>, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of <u>Section 8.07(d)</u>, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of <u>Section 8.07(f)</u> (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in <u>paragraph (d)</u> of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) <u>Assignments by Lenders</u>. Any Lender may, and shall as provided in <u>Section 2.21</u>, at any time assign to one or more assignees (other than an Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); <u>provided</u> that (in each case with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Commitments and the Term A Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions (as applicable):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) <u>Minimum Amounts</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and/or the Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in any case not described in <u>Section 8.07(b)(i)(A)</u>, the aggregate amount of the applicable Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Borrower otherwise consents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) <u>Proportionate Amounts</u>. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advances or the Commitment assigned, except that this <u>clause (ii)</u> shall not prohibit any Lender or Issuing Bank from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Letter of Credit Commitments on a non-pro rata basis; <u>provided</u> that, at no time shall the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) <u>Required Consents</u>. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by <u>Section 8.07(b)(i)(B)</u> and, in addition:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default under <u>Section 6.01(a)</u> or <u>(f)</u> has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) the consent of each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) <u>Assignment and Assumption</u>. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; <u>provided</u> that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) <u>No Assignment to Certain Persons</u>. No such assignment shall be made to an Ineligible Institution or any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries.

"<u>Ineligible Institution</u>" means (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its holding company, (c) a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof or (d) the Administrative Borrower or any of its Affiliates; <u>provided</u> that, with respect to the foregoing <u>clause (c)</u>, such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Advances or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than $25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) <u>Certain Additional Payments</u>. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. 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.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to <u>paragraph (c)</u> of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.11</u> and <u>8.04</u> with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; <u>provided</u> that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender's having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with <u>paragraph (d)</u> of this Section.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) <u>Register</u>. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Administrative Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related stated interest amounts) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "<u>Register</u>"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) <u>Participations</u>. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Administrative Borrower or any of the Administrative Borrower's Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a "<u>Participant</u>") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances owing to it); <u>provided</u> that (i) such Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Administrative Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under <u>Section 8.16</u> with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; <u>provided</u> that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent otherwise requires such Lender's affirmative consent pursuant to the provisions of <u>Section 8.01</u> and then only to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Administrative Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Sections 2.11</u>, <u>8.04(d)</u> and <u>2.14</u> (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under <u>Section 2.14</u> (it being understood that the documentation required under <u>Section 2.14</u> shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to <u>paragraph (b)</u> of this Section; <u>provided</u> that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of <u>Sections 2.11</u>, <u>2.14</u> and <u>2.21</u> as if it were an assignee under <u>paragraph (b)</u> of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under <u>Sections 2.11</u> or <u>2.14</u>, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Administrative Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Administrative Borrower to effectuate the provisions of <u>Section 2.21</u> with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of <u>Section 8.05</u> as though it were a Lender; <u>provided</u> that such Participant agrees to be subject to <u>Section 2.15</u> as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Administrative 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 Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the "<u>Participant Register</u>"); <u>provided</u> 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 credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) 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 United States Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor version), or is necessary for the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA or other applicable law. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this <u>Section 8.07</u>, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Loan Parties furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Loan Parties; <u>provided</u> that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree for the benefit of the Loan Parties to preserve the confidentiality of any Borrower Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) <u>Certain Pledges</u>. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender to a Federal Reserve Bank, any other Governmental Authority or any of its Affiliates; <u>provided</u> that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 8.08. <u>Confidentiality</u>. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Issuing Bank may disclose to any Person any confidential, proprietary or non-public information of the Loan Parties furnished to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or Issuing Banks by any Loan Party (such information being referred to collectively herein as the "<u>Borrower Information</u>"), except that each of the Administrative Agent, each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Banks may disclose Borrower Information (i) to its and its affiliates' employees, officers, directors, partners, counsel, auditors, representatives, agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Borrower Information and instructed to keep such Borrower Information confidential on terms at least as restrictive as provided herein), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory body, (iii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder (including, if required, to establish the facts of Default), (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this <u>Section 8.08</u>, to any assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant or to any credit insurance provider, direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement, (vii) to the extent such Borrower Information (A) is or becomes generally available to the public on a non-confidential basis other than as a result of a breach of this <u>Section 8.08</u> by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, or (B) is or becomes available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties; <u>provided</u> that such source is not known to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, to be subject to any confidentiality obligation to any Loan Party, and (viii) with the consent of any Loan Party; <u>provided</u> that, prior to any disclosure pursuant to <u>clause (ii)</u> or <u>(iii)</u> above, the disclosing party agrees that it will notify the non-disclosing party as soon as practical in the event of any such request for a disclosure (other than at the request of a banking regulatory authority or self-regulatory body), unless such notification shall be prohibited by applicable law or legal process. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agree that monetary damages would not be a sufficient remedy for breach of this <u>Section 8.08</u>, and that in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, the Loan Parties shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, without proof of actual damages. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledges that (i) the Borrower Information may include material non-public information concerning a Loan Party or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws. The Loan Parties and their Affiliates agree that they will not in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or their respective Affiliates or referring to this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents without consultation with the Administrative Agent and such Lender unless (and only to the extent that) the Loan Parties or such Affiliates are required to do so under law and then, in any event, the Loan Parties or such Affiliates will consult with such Person before issuing such press release or other public disclosure; <u>provided</u> that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the consultation requirement set forth in this sentence shall not apply to filings with the SEC that the Loan Parties or such Affiliates determine is necessary or advisable to satisfy their disclosure obligations under applicable law. The Loan Parties consent to the publication by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of customary advertising material relating to the transactions contemplated hereby using the name of the Administrative Borrower and the size of the Facilities. Upon request from the Administrative Agent and with the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Administrative Agent may use the logo of the Administrative Borrower in customary advertising materials relating to the transactions contemplated hereby. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any person.

SECTION 8.09. <u>Governing Law</u>. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

SECTION 8.10. <u>Execution in Counterparts</u>. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words "execution," "signed," "signature," "delivery," and words of like import in this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or electronic records, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance of a manually signed paper Communication which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Communication converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Administrative Agent and each of the Lender may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Communication in the form of an imaged Electronic Record ("<u>Electronic Copy</u>"), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person's business, and destroy the original paper document. All Communications in the form of an Electronic Record, including an Electronic Copy, shall be considered an original for all purposes, and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record. Each of the Loan Parties and each Lender hereby waives (i) any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document, and (ii) waives any claim against the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Related Party for any liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent's and/or any Lender's reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures, including any liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Loan Parties to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

SECTION 8.11. <u>Jurisdiction, Etc</u>. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as otherwise expressly provided in such other Loan Documents) to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York and appellate courts from any thereof; <u>provided</u> that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to preclude (i) any party from bringing any legal action or proceeding in any jurisdiction for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment and (ii) if all such courts decline jurisdiction over any person, or decline (or in the case of the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York located in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York, lack) jurisdiction over any subject matter of such action or proceeding, a legal action or proceeding may be brought with respect thereto in another court having jurisdiction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) consents and agrees that any such action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in any court referred to in <u>paragraph (a)</u> of this <u>Section 8.11</u> and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address set forth in <u>Section 8.02</u> or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this <u>Section 8.11</u> any special, indirect, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) ANY SUBSIDIARY REVOLVER BORROWER HEREBY APPOINTS THE ADMINISTRATIVE BORROWER AS ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT (THE "<u>AUTHORIZED AGENT</u>") UPON WHOM PROCESS MAY BE SERVED IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN WHICH MAY BE INSTITUTED IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK. SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON THE AUTHORIZED AGENT SHALL BE DEEMED, IN EVERY RESPECT, EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON ANY SUBSIDIARY REVOLVER BORROWER.

SECTION 8.12. <u>No Liability of the Issuing Banks</u>. The Administrative Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither an Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Administrative Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Administrative Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential damages suffered by the Administrative Borrower that the Administrative Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank's willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation.

SECTION 8.13. <u>Judgment</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Alternative Currency into Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be based on the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The obligation of the Administrative Borrower and each Loan Party in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the "<u>Primary Currency</u>") to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, the Administrative Borrower and each other Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to the Administrative Borrower or such Loan Party such excess.

SECTION 8.14. <u>Patriot Act</u>. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Administrative Borrower and the other Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub.

ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

SECTION 8.16. <u>Indemnification by Lenders</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Administrative Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Administrative Borrower to do so), from and against such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that maybe imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (collectively, the "<u>Indemnified Costs</u>"), <u>provided</u> that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any portion of the Indemnified Costs resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) <u>provided</u> that the Indemnified Costs were incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Administrative Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this <u>Section 8.16</u> applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or a third party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Issuing Banks (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Administrative Borrower) from and against such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Bank hereunder or in connection herewith; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Issuing Bank's gross negligence or willful misconduct and (ii) <u>provided</u> that the indemnified amounts were incurred by or asserted against the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse any such Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Administrative Borrower under <u>Section 8.04</u>, to the extent that such Issuing Bank is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Administrative Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The failure of any Lender to reimburse the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank for its Pro Rata Share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Bank for such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this <u>Section 8.16</u> shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the Notes.

SECTION 8.17. <u>No Fiduciary Duties</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Administrative Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries' understanding, that no Agent, Issuing Bank or Lender (each, a "<u>Lender Party</u>") will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Lender Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm's-length contractual counterparty to the Administrative Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Administrative Borrower or any other person. The Administrative Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Lender Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Lender Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Administrative Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Lender Party is advising the Administrative Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Administrative Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Lender Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Administrative Borrower with respect thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Administrative Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries' understanding, that each Lender Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Lender Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrowers and other companies with which the Borrowers may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Lender Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In addition, the Administrative Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries' understanding, that each Lender Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Administrative Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. The Administrative Borrower also acknowledges that no Lender Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to any Loan Party, confidential information obtained from other companies.

SECTION 8.18. <u>Waiver of Jury Trial</u>. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS <u>SECTION 8.18</u>.

SECTION 8.19. <u>Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of a Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any Resolution Authority.

SECTION 8.20. <u>Release of Subsidiary Guarantors and Subsidiary Revolver Borrowers</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released from its Obligations under its Subsidiary Guaranty and such Subsidiary Guaranty shall be terminated automatically, without any further action on the part of the Lenders, immediately prior to the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a guarantor of all Specified Debt of which such Subsidiary Guarantor is, or is required to be, a guarantor, <u>provided</u> that, if at any time and for any reason such Subsidiary Guarantor is deemed to be or otherwise becomes reinstated as a guarantor under any Specified Debt, such Subsidiary shall automatically be reinstated as a Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guaranty without any further action on the part of such Subsidiary Guarantor or the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Subsidiary Revolver Borrower shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Loan Documents upon the repayment in full and termination of such Subsidiary Revolver Borrower's Subsidiary Borrower Revolver Tranche.

SECTION 8.21. <u>Withholding Tax</u>. To the extent required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.14, each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within ten (10) calendar days after demand therefor, all Taxes and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate documentation was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.21. The agreements in this Section 8.21 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of any Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 8.22. <u>Interest Rate Limitation</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 8.23. <u>Integration</u>. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 8.24. <u>Severability</u>. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.24, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

SECTION 8.25. <u>Judgment Currency</u>. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Loan Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the "Judgment Currency") other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the "Agreement Currency"), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the applicable Lender from any Loan Party in the Agreement Currency, such Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the applicable Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Loan Party (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

SECTION 8.26. <u>Amendment and Restatement</u>. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement effective from and after the Closing Date. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of any Debt or other Obligations owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Existing Credit Agreement based on facts or events occurring or existing prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement. On the Closing Date, the credit facilities described in the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended, supplemented, modified and restated in their entirety by the facilities described herein, all loans and other obligations of the Borrowers outstanding as of such date under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be Term A Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, and Obligations outstanding under the corresponding facilities described herein, without any further action by any Person, and participations in Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be reallocated as are necessary in order that the outstanding balance of such participations, together with any Term A Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, whether funded on the Closing Date of deemed issued hereunder pursuant to this Section 8.26, reflect the respective Commitments of the Lenders hereunder. The reallocation contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, to the extent necessary, be funded by the Term A Lenders through the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Administrative Agent's instructions to each Term A Lender and each Term A Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take any actions as may be necessary or advisable to give effect to the reallocation of Term A Loans contemplated thereby.
